Peaceful oponing Of the stsseton Lards.


Browns VALLEY, MINI, April 16.-The
opening Of the Sisseton reservation, so far
as known, was accomplished without a
squatter's row or any trouble of a serious
character. Any number of broken wheels,
smashed axles and bruised boomers after
the scramble, but on the whole the opening
passed OF without q contretemps. A few
minutes before l O'Clock the leaders in the
townsite race arrived on the chosen ground.
The first care of the locaters was to settle
the women, Miss Burnett. of Mime apolis
Miss Sharpe, Miss Osborne and Miss De
Hart. and they were promptly installed on
good lands close to the townsite. Half an
hour later a restaurant and grocery store
was running at full blast while dozen
frame shanties were in course of construc-
tion. Plenty of water and other necessaries
were in reserve, and there will be no suffer
ing.
The military orders were carried out
with praiseworthy precision and the troops
are expected to be withdrawn Monday.
The crowd is increasing in the townsite
and other portions of the reservation. A
few people who became lost in the prairie
and thereby lost their claims are coming in
discouraged, bedraggled and exhausted.

A Half-greed Desperate.
Especial TO THE HERA1D-Examiner Dispc

MURPHY, n. c., April 16.-Bill Murphy,
the half breed desperate who murdered
his brother and three other persons, has
killed deputy sheriff and is now in hiding
in the Nantahala mountains, where he de-
fies arrest. After killing his brother he
sent the sheriff of Monroe county word
that he didn't want to hurt him, but that
the sheriff must not try to arrest him. The
sheriff did not try until warrant was
sworn out. He then summoned a posse of
| fifteen men, and with Charley Ray, his
deputy, went to Jellico. It was after dark
as they approached lobe hilller's house,
where Murphy and his brothers, Archer
and jim, were. They heard the crowd ap-
preaching and got out of the house through
the chimney corner. Sheriff McCane or
dered them to surrender, when they opened
fire on the posse with Winchesters. A hot
fire from both sides was kept UP for few
minutes, and Ray, the deputy, fell with a
bullet in his brain. Then the sheriff's
posse, except Dan Murphy, the uncle of
| Bill. ran. The sheriff was shot in the
shoulder, but fortunately the ball had
struck the breech OF his gun first, which
saved his life The Murphys made dash
for the house again, which is built of logs,
with only one door, and began firing
through the cracks. The whole posse then
fed leaving the body OF Ray. A messen-
ger was sent to Sweetwater for medical
aid for the sheriff, and to telegraph the
governor of Tennessee for troops Muir
ply had staked off his grave by the side OF
his brothers. Last night fearing that the
authorities would prove too much for him,
he crossed into North Carolina INFO the
Nantahala mountains, where it will be al
most impossible to follow him.
