plentiful that they are thinning out the
ducks and almost all other water fowl ex.
cept the wild geese. "They pervade the
river" said he, land are very thick in the
lrrigating bitches. They seem to eat the
grass. They devour the various kinds of
small animal life, aud though the ducks and
other fowl dive down deep they can find
little to eat. I cannot imagine what the
United States fish commission was about in
sending In such a coarse-heshed, ravenous
fish as these carp are. They are certainly
worse to eat than almost any fish we have
in California, and they are thinning the
good fish out. Shoals of them are to be
found in the water bitches. They get out
in the grass where there is a little water,
and there you can scoop them up. Some of
them are very large. Plenty can be seen
from foot to two feet long" These fish
were introduced in this county from Ger
mrny, and were considered very desirable
addition to the piscatorial inhabitants of
our streams.

earliest and latest dates upon which Eas-

John Day Sentinel: Henry Johnson, our
townsman and an extensive sheepraiser
of this section, received word from one of
his ranches on Sunday night last that a
band of Indians were killing some of his
sheep In the hills on Rock creek. A war
rant was sworn out and an officer sent
down to search the Indian camp. The
officer arrived there just in time TO catch
the Indians in the act of leaving there
with seven horses loaded with wool and
pelts, which had been taken from sheep
which were identified as Mr.. Johnson's.
Thirty-seven carcasses of sheep were
found near the camp which had been
killed with clubs by the Indians. Seven
of the bucks were placed under arrest
and taken before Justice Snow, of Day
vile, who bound them over to await the
action of the grand jury. Tuesday even
ing they came through John Day on their
way to the Hotel de Cresap at Canyon,
and unless Uncle Sam or some eastern
phIlanthropist is found to go their bail
they are likely to receive their rations
from Grant county for the next sixty days.

The Florence West tells the following: An
amusing incident occurred in the circuit
court at West Point, MISS. A negro boy,
who was being tried for stealing two pairs
of trousers, and having no lawyer the judge
asked MIN if he desired to speak. He re.
piled in the affirmative and spoke, "The
Boy Stood on the Burning Deck" to the
judge and jury. The above reminds US of
little scene at funeral some few months
ago at place not a long way outside the
borders of Oregon. The minister, who was
to preach the funeral sermon, being a con-
scientious, God-loving man, and the de-
ceased disreputable individual, he pre-
ferred not to lInger upon the virtues of his
subject. He accordingly called upon the
congregation for few remarks, and after
severa! solicitations gentleman in the rear
of the church arose and said if the audience
had no objections he would like to give
them an halt hour talk on the Free Coinage
Bill.
