REVOLVING INDIANS
Rioting Around the White Earth
Reservation.
Police Tear Down Hall Where Their
Orgies Are Held-DissatIsfe With
the Government They Arc
Rampant For
Murder.

The situation in the White Earth re-
servation is so serious that it is feared
Gen. Merritt will have to send two or
three companies of the Third regiment
to White Earth, Mimi, to prevent n
riot and possible massacre. The Chip
pewas have been in a state of open re-
volt for several weeks. Saturday dele
cation of Leach Lake Indians arrived
in White Earth to confer, and soon af-
ter their arrival joined in wild dance
with White Earth red men. The police
became alarmed at Une threatening out
look, and to stop the
dance tore down the hall in
which the orgies of the savages
were taking place. The Indians were
highly incensed over the interference,
and held meetings Sunday with n view
of getting even. The dissatisfaction of
the Indians has resulted from the tardi-
ness of the Chippewa commission in
the matter of allotment of land and
the non-payment by the government
of several thousand dollars damages
occasioned. by overllows in the con-
struction of the Upper Mississippi

Indians, and the governments intima-
tion that it proposed to settle the debt
in stock and agricultural implements
has so incensed them that they are in q
mood to commit almost any outrage.
Chief White Cloud is on the ground try
ing to prevent an outbreak, although
he has written the interior department
that his tribe will not submit to the
payment of any thing except money for
its ruined rice fields

EXPERIMENTS IN TEXAS,
In the Hope of Opening the Closed Tear
Ducts in the Arid Belt.

DIR. Dyrenfurth, in charge of expert
ments to produce rain, left Wednesday
night with his balloons, kites and eX-
plosive generators for Texas. He
intends to go well west into the arid
belt, where he will be at a distance
from settlements, and where he
can be free to carry on his experiments
without interruption. He has taken
some very large balloons. His purpose
is to cover line of some three miles in
length, and to so stock il with ex.
plosives carried by balloons and kites,
or shot from mortars. as to enable him
to keep up heavy conclusions for two
days There is no doubt but that the
experiment will be an exhaustive one.

A Cute Little Insect That Kills the Hes
Sian Fly.

sian
Early last spring Frof. Forbes, state
entomologist of Illinois, received from
the Smithsonian institute, at Washing
ton, a few of the larvg OF parasite
supposed to be destructive to the Hes
sian fly. This parasite is found only
in Europe. He undertook to expert
ment to prove whether these larv@
are destructive to the fly here, and
if so, to what degree. In order to
determine this small patch of
wheat about yard square was inclosed
in box, arranged so that the grain
could have light and air TO grow. A
considerable number of Hessian flies
and the larv@ mentioned We're put in
and the box so closed that they couldn't
escape and other insects get in, and thur
the experiment was begun. The larvS
have Matched and are flourishing. They
are almost microscopical and seem to
have been created solely to prey upon
the Hessian fly The parasite is neatly
formed wasp-shaped little mite, sup
piled with sharp sting or auger
With unerring instinct it finds the place
where the fly has laid its egg under the
husls of the straw, and boring down in
to the parasite lays it's egg inside the
egg of the fly. There it develops into a
grub, consuming the egg of the fly and
destroying it, This is in outline what
has been proved by the experiments
made. The parasite was first discover
ed committing its depredations upon
the Hessian fly in the wheat fields of
Southern Europe.

Zinc as a consumution Cure.

DIR. LannelOngue S method of treating
tuberculosis is to inject solution of
chloride of zinc into the affected tissue.
The solution hardens the tubercle tis-
sue, producing a condition unfavorable
to the existence of the tubercle bacilli
The process of treatment is tedious,
but it is remarkable scientific appli-
cation of the Pasteur and Koch meth
DDS The doctor himself admits that
he proceeds according to the Pasteur
method and operates on the Koch
bacillus

A HANGING EXCURSION,
Hand-Bills Announce II Gala Day, But tn
Governor Nips 1t In the Bud.

Hand-Bills Announce II Gala Day, But the
Governor Nips 1t In the Bud.
Gov. Nichols Friday respited Charles
Large and William Dial, who were to
have been hanged at Lake Charles, La,
Friday, to the great disgust of num-
ber of excursionists who had gathered
there from Texas and the neighboring
county. For the last few days hand
bills had been scattered freely at Beau.
mont and other Texas towns announc.
ing that an excursion would be
given from Houston to Lake Charles
to witness the hanging, and that the
excursionists would be accompanied by
the famous First regiment band and
served with refreshments. The law of
Louisiana prohibits public executions
and requires that they be in the Jail
yard, but it is said that the scaffold was
so erected within the yard and at such
a heighth that outsiders, including ex-
cursionists, could see the hanging. The
matter was called to the attention of
the governor, who defeated the scheme
by respiting the condemned men and
postponing the hanging

Drilling by Electricity.

Fulton Gardiner, of Chicago, has in
vented an electric drill which, he
claims, will bore hole of any desired
depth doing the last foot of it as easily
as the first The power is applied by
electricity at the tip, without the use of
shafting, and the only limit to the depth
bored will be the depth that the cleo
trio current can be conducted. He
wants to show it in operation at the
fair and proposes to drill hole to the
center of the earth

The Physicians Puzzled.

A case puzzling to ali physicians of
the city developed at Parl1ersburg, w.
Va, Friday evening. Charles Pearce,
son of Capt. Jesse Pearce, was found
lying unconscious in bed at his board
ing-housc during the afternoon. Since
then all efforts of a corps of physicians
to revive him have been unavailing.
The young fellow can not be brought
back to consciousness. The physicians
admit that the case is puzzle, and that
they never before met with similar
experience.

A friend of the Blaine family says:
"The report that Secretary Blaine is
sinking, and that the doctors have no
hope, is utterly false and without foun-
dation whatever. Mr. Blaine is stead
lily improving, as everyone who sees
him riding and walking about the
streets of Bar Harbor knows, and there
is every prospect that he will be well
man by the end of the summer"

Remedy For Yellow Fever.

The Santiago de Cuba papers COM
ment upon the wonderful results which
have been attained there in combating
yellow fever by means of the camera
polar" (polar chamber). This method
of fighting the disease was invented by
a physician in the locality in which such
successful experiments have been made.
Up to date, the Santiago papers say all
persons who have been treated by this
method have recovered, even those who
had reached an advanced stage of the
disease.

Pears Sudden Death Only.

1t has been and is a source of great
trouble to the friends and family of
Secretary Blaine to keep him busily
engaged to keep dementia away. Mr..
Blaine fears sudden death only, and
seems to think that his condition is now
good, and wants to be left alone. The
fear of sudden death seems to affect
his mind seriously, much to the worri-
ment of his physician.

French Respects to England

La Liberte says English newspa-
pers, in attempting to dissipate the un-
easiness which the reception given ito
the German emperor in England might
inspire, indulge in protestations Of
friendship for France. Their trouble
is superhuous. France knows that in
case of war England, though she has
not formally entered the Dreibund,
would side with our enemies. We can
not rely upon her impartiality."

AmazonInn VanitY.


1t has been thought by wise men and
philosophers that all women have in
their hearts liking for furbelows and
trinkets. Virgil tells us that Camilla,
after having shaken off all other female
weaknesses, was still woman in this
particular, 1t seems that love of inery
was the ruin of that eminent feminine
warrior After having widowed no end
of Trojan wives with her tremendous
sword, she espied young gentleman
from the many-gated city, who wore an
embroidered tunic, beautiful coat of
mail and a mantle of Tyrian purple. "A
golden bow hung upon his shoulder; his
garment was buckled with golden
clasp, and his head was covered with
golden helmet" The splendid outfit OF
the youth set the Greek Amazon almost
crazy. She thought, no doubt, that
such parade-suit would add greatly to
her killing appearance. But, alas! her
vanity and greed proved her destruction,
and Virgil leaves his lndy-renders to
draw moral from her fntc,--N. Y,
Ledger.
