lcHIvlNGToN's MASSACRE.
Counter Claims for Damages for Dead
Cattle and Indians.

WASHINGTON, February 1.-The Court
of Claims is considering an interesting
case. The claimant is Colonel John M.
Chivington of the First Colorado Caval-
ry, and the defendants are the United
States and the Sioux Nation.
The claim is for damages on account of
Indian depredations committed in Wy
oming in the spring of 1867. Colonel
Chivington alleges that the Indians stole
1902 head of cattle and % head of horses,
worth 1872, $50, for which he asks judg-
ment.
A counter claim has been setup by As
sistant Attorney General Colby, who has
charge of the defense of this class of
cases, in behalf of the Indians, alleging
the massacre of a large number of men,
women and children of the Sioux Nation
at Sand Greek, by Colonel Chivington and
his regiment, November 81, 1864, and the
destruction of property belonging to the
Indians to an amount far exceeding in
value that of Colonel Chivington's claim.
This is one of the historic cases, and
was known as the ''Chiyington, OF Sand
Creek massacre in which it was said
that nearly 1900 Indians of all ages and
sexes were killed, and their scalps taken
and bodies mutilated by white men. Col
onel Chivington, prior to his location in
Denver. was Methodist preacher, and
the presiding elder of that church in the
South Platte country of Nebraska Tor
several years.

The Building of Rumville.

MAscouTAH, H., February L. The
town of Marissa has long been the strong
hold of the Prohibition party in st. Clair
county, but in spite of the temperance
proclivities of the citizens two saloons
have fourished outside OF the town
limits for several years. The saloon
keepers, of course, could get no licenses,
and they have been prosecuted often for
running without them They have here
tofore paid their fines regularly, but kept
right on. The temperance people finally
combined to make war on the saloons.
The saloon keepers have struck novel
scheme, which may prove successful.
They propose to build tenement houses
around the saloons, and create new
town. Of course the tenants would be
for license, and the saloon people would
take out a license in the regular way.
The building of the new town has
already begun.

OPEN AND SHUT.
How a New York Preacher Enforced as
Temperance Talk. @

New York, February Rev Charles
H. Tyndall of the Broome street taoerna-
Gle illustrated his sermon last evening
with three doors. They had been buliD
by the sexton, who is carpenter, eA-
presslv for the occasion. The first repre-
sented the common barroom door thab
swings both ways, and, the speaker saio'
symbolized the gateway to perdltlon.
Over it he hung a card which read: All
We who enter here leave hope behind
''What?'' asked Dr. Tyndall. Then ne
took up another card inscribed Money.
s'First you leave your money, then your
home,'' and he hung up another card on
the door bearing the word Home.
stBut that is not all you leave. with
home and all it's comforts, you leave po-
sition, friends and happiness, and Tor
each word he added a card to the door.
'tSome of you know by experience now
true this is. When your moneys gone
and it's sure to go when you open tnat
door-the friends who chung to you pc
fore won't know you. The last and most
important thing of all that you lose IS
heaven" and he hung up card bearing
the word. =.
The barroom door was then carried off
the platform and one bearing large red
heart put in it's place. On the other side
it was painted black and had a heavy
bolt. E'This,'' said the speaker, REPRE-
SCENTS the door of mans heart, which by
nature stands open, but which he closes
against the Saviour. When he is saved
he shoots back the bolt and allows the
Lord to enter"
The next door shown was held open by
a large red cross, which, when removed,
let the door swing to with bang. TWAS
drawn to string, to the end of which
was attached a large sword, that served
as a weight.
'sThis is the door of mercy said the
speaker, ''and the sword is the flaming
sword Of justice. Ohr' exclaimed he.
ssif the gates of Heaven would only close
with bang that could be heard on earth,
so that sinners here might take warning!
The day will come when the door will
close and shut you out forever"
Here he turned the door around and
displayed painted upon its reverse the
words: 1.-THE door is shut forever

Live stock Points.

A hog breeder illustrates the differ
ence between a man and hog thus: "a
mems digestion fails before his appetite
does. A hogs appetite fails before his
digestion does"
Cotton growers are unusually discour-
aged in some parts of the south. The
old system was for the, planter to run
in debt for supplies from the time one
cotton crop was sold till the next grew.
Even his pork he imported from the
north, when as good pork as the country
affords can be made in the south by
every farmer. A powerful effort is
being made to induce agriculturists in
the cotton states to quit the old waste
full, dependent methods and raise upon
their own ground live stock, grain of all
kinds and fruits and vegetables. When
the southern farmer does this he will
be for the first time Independent. The
south is the grandest poultry region in
this Union. His own hogs, butter, eggs,
poultry and beef will enable the south
ern farmer to live like prince. 1t does
pay to raise all these things at home
upon the farm.
Bulletin No. rs of, the Michigan ex-
pertinent station treats in an exhaustive
manner of CHAMBERS in horses and the
human family. The disease known as
farcy is also discussed.
The difference between CHAMBERS and
farcy, according to bulletin Is of the
Michigan station, is this: The term
CHAMBERS is used when the interior of the
nose, the lungs or other portions OF the
organs of respiration are affected, while
the name farcy is used when the outside
of the body is attacked. Chambers can
not be communicated from one horse to
another from the breath. The infection
is spread from the offensive matter that
is discharged, and this is found at public
horse troughs, stables or upon harness,
blankets, etc. II III. tsae II.
F This is how Field and Farm sizes it up:
Remember pasturing takes five acres to
each COW for six months; soiling feeds a
COW on one acre for six months; ensilage
feeds COW on one acre for whole year."
- Look here. A Chicago paper asks:
"Why In the world are not few more
enterprising women, with small capital
at their disposal, coming forward as
poultry farmers?''

REHRlNe SEA AGAIN.
The British Commissioners Have a Talk
- with Mr.. Blaine.

with Mr.. Blaine. q
WASHINGTON, February 1.-Sir Julian
Pauncefote, British minister, called at
the State Department this morning in
company with the British Behring Sea
Commission, Sir Baden, Powell. and DR..
Dawson, who have just arrived in Wash
ington from Canada. They had a con-
ference with Mr.. Blaine and arranged
certain preliminaries of the joint conven-
ton to be held between the United
States and the British commissioners
who visited Behring Sea last summer for
the special purpose of investigating the
seal industry. The United States COM
missioners are Prof. Mendenhall and
Prof. Merriam. Each commission has
arrived at certain conclusions, and the
object of the conference between them is
to bring these results together into a
joint report constituting the finding OF
facts to be submitted to the board of ar
bitrators. The commission has dealt
with the present and future of the seal
ing industry without reference to the po-
litical issues involved, such as the ques-
ton of jurisdiction over Behring Sea
which, of course is the principal ques-
ton to be determined by arbitration.
The facts furnished by the commission
ers as to the numbers and habits of the
seals, the extent of the industry and the
probability of the determination of the
species if indiscriminate sealing is aln
lowed, will form an essential basis of the
argument, it being practically conceded
that arbitration cannot be concluded i'll
time to secure the renewal of the modus
viyendi of last year, which compact will
expire May i, next.

Rose, of the firm of Rose Brothers, had a
narrow escape this afternoon. In COM

was returning from the Chickawaukie
pond races, when his team was run into

thrown with terrible violence to the
ground. Unconscious and bleeding

conveyed to neighboring house where
he revived some time later. The acct
dent, though serious, will probably not
prove fatal.
