THREE OF A KIND,
How Three Pretty Swedish Girls Puzzle
KeNiafrv

How Three Pretty Swedish Girls Puzzled
Registry Clerk.
Three blue-eyed Swedish girls-Lotta.
Hilda and Anna Observation-Disclosures a
registry clerk at the barge Office, says a
New York special to the Pittsburg Dis
patch. After taking the pedigree OF Lolita,
who said she WAS Is years old and was
going 10 work for her uncle, farmer near
Rockford, ILL.,, the clerk said, in his usual
perfunctory tones: "Pass on" He did
not look up from his book to see if she
obeyed. She did, however. Then the
clerk gazed into face that was duplicate
Of Lotta's. But the face belonged to
Hlda. The clerk repeated his order:
"Pass on" but Hilda did not move. She
remarked that the clerk had taken her sis
ter's pedigree and not hers. "Ol, / see;
you are twins?" the clerk said. So Hilda's
history was entered in the big book, and
she was ordered to follow the procession.
Another blue-eyed vision confronted the
clerk. He took off his spectacles, rubbed
and readjusted them carefully, and scrut-
iniZed what he was mOmentarily inclined to
think was mere phantasm. Then he
looked at two girls who had preceded the
third girl, who said she was Anna Gustav
son. He also glanced backward at the long
there were any more. Then he came to the
conclusion that all the eighteen-year-o
GustavsOn girls had been corralled. They
are Iriplets. and every one IS dressed like
every other one, and every one is Just as
healthy, rosy, blue eyed and light-haired as
another. They arc the first triplets to 60 on
record at the barge Office.

INDIAN THREATS.
The Chsyennes Reported 20 Be Making Prepar-

The Cheyennes Reported 20 Be Making Prepar-
ations for an Outbreak.
MILES CITY (Mont). Dec. Soldiers have
been received from headquarters in St. Paul
for the troops at Fort Keogh to 90 to the
Cheyenne agency, rs the reds were dancing
In violation of orders and have notified the
sgent they intend to make an attack. Since
the order from the General Land Office al
lowing those settlers who claim prior rights
within the reservation TO make final proofs
thereon, trouble has been feared, and the
Indians have:made threats.
CHICAGO, Dec. 8.-Army officers in this
department are inclined TO discredit the re-
ports telegraphed here that the CHEYENNE,
ut the Cheyenne Agency have gone on the
warpath. Captain Higgins of General
Miles stan says it is hardly possible the
Cheyennes will at this time attempt an out
break. They are, however. dissatisfied be-
cause the whites who settled on their reser-
walton we're allowed to remain with likeli-
hood oil getting patent for their lands.
The number OF Cheyennes is greatly overes-
tlmated In the dispatches and instead of 1000
there are not more than 300 able bodied men
on the reservation.
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. "a Tribune spa-
clal from Miles City, Mont, says: Three
settlers from Tongue River say the Indians
nave noticed surveyors at work locating
claims, and declare that white men shall
not hold ranches within the reservation.
oihce the escape OF an Indian charged with
murder the other Indians have been ugly.
while they are in most threatening mood,
no actual hostlities have yet occurred.
