THREE MAKES with which three remarkable
condolences are connected appeared on the
register of the Brevoort house, New York last
week. Each name is prefixed with the title
count, which is in itself nothing strange, but
that the three should be counts of the same
name is something very odd in the history of

surround the hoStileS' camp, with the exception
OF the south side, the object being to drive the
Indians to the reservation. There is a constant
communication between the hostile camp and
the agency. The hostiles are well supplied with
beer, but they have no sugar coffee, except
as they are supplied by the "friendlies, as the
reservation indians are called. While the situa-
ton is regarded as a hopeless one for the In
dams, yet it is believed they have no intention
