ground that 1t was withdrawn for in
demnity by the Northern Pacific in
1881. The secretary however, held that
the Northern Pacific could have no
claim upon the land for indemnity
purposes previous to its selection and
designation of such tracts. and that
In this instance selection was not made
until 1891. and whether or not the lands
could be Withdrawn for Indian pur-
poses has no bearing on the case. Five
other claims. in all essential particu-
lars the same as that of Pressy, have
been decided by the secretar in favor
OF the settlers. The names of these
claimants are Patrick Lynch, John c.
Cooley. Hiram l.. Young, Hugh Gaff-
ney and Zachary Rowland.
This is good news. and so far as the
Northern Pacific's claim to the land is
concerned, is probably final The Jour
mel, however. does not understand that
the question of whether or not these
lands can be withheld for reservation
purposes is yet settled. as 1t was not
passed upon by the secretary, having
been raised by the company and not a
material point at issue in these cases.

BILLY BLOSSOM DEAD
An 0ld-Time Portland Gambler Plays
His Last Card.
WAS SLAIN BY A MEXICAN
He Had Forsaken Liquor and
Gained a Fortune In Old
Mexico-Was a Nephew of
oliver Wendell n dimes.

Portland. Ore. special: A letter from
Mazatlan. Mexico. to-day. briefly out
lines the career and tragic death of
Billy Blossom. an old-time Portland
gambler and a nephew of the late OIL
yer Wendell Holmes. Blossom was at
one time known to every gambler In
the state. During the last few years
of his residence here. however. he had
become a wreck from drink. He was
'hanger-on" at the old Brunswick
gambling-house in its flush" days
when Ike Grafton and Jake Webber
were running 1t. and had every oppor-
tunity to make an independent fortune.
But at that time Blossoms star of pop
ularity and prosperity had been
contempt usually accorded the pickers-
up of ''sleepers' on a faro game.
In the latter part of 1889 Blossom
suddenly disappeared from his haunts.
and he had then fallen so low among
his class that scarcely any one inquired
as to what had become OF him. In 1891
1t was learned that he had weaned
himself from the liquor habit and be-
gun life anew in the City of Mexico,
gambling house.
The letter received to-day adds that
In August of this year Blossom got into
a fight with a rich Mexican gambler
and he was fatally stabbed. He lived
two weeks after the ARRAY. and dis
posed of s35.O00 in ready cash among
relatives in Fall River. Mass. He also
revealed for the first time that he was
a nephew of the late DIR. oliver Wen
dell Holmes. AT his request his body
was embalmed and sent to Fall River
for interment

Lewiston. Idaho. special: An old man

the central ferry near this city last eve
ming. He was a freighter and was
driving a four-horse team and one OF

broke the lead bar. The sudden Jerk
on the reins pulled the old man of the
seat over the end board OF the wagon
and he fell to the ground under the
wheels.
The heavy wagon and Its load OF four
tons OF iron passed over his breast
crushing him TO death. The plunging
of the team was the first intlmatlon

he was picked up quite dead. with

A Big Black DIAMOND.
From the London News.

From the London News.
! The largest black diamond that was
ever seen was recently shown to the
academy of Sciences in Paris by NJ
Moissan. a French chemist. 1t weighs
3,O73 carats. Our correspondent SAYS:
This gigantic carbon was found by
a digger last July in a diamond field
din Bahia. It's hardness Is greater than
that of the brilliant. and for this rea-
son Ii has great industrial value NJ
Moissan Is sorry that II cannot be
bought for the Museum of Natural
History. He has made an exact mould
of II. This diamond presents a surface
partly smooth and partly corrugated
and is exactly similar to the particles
of black diamonds produced by NJ
Moissan in the electrical furnace. The
three largest of the species previously
found weighed $40. $40 and LOO carats
respectively. and the latter was not
homogeneous or free from flaws. The
present specimen. however. is as big as
a large pear and apDarenfly perfect. :"

Fluke and FUNK.

Miles City Journal: AS a champion
or the queens English this paper de-
sires to enter protest against the
misuse of the word "fiuke." which mis-
use originated about the time of the re-
cent international yacht races and has
been steadily growing in favor with
careless or uniformed newspaper
writers ever since. This new custom
ds to substitute "fiuke" for funk" and
TO retire the latter term from use alto
gether. We read in the reports of the
yacht races that Dunraven had "fiuk-
ed" and of late the papers are full of
the "f1ukes" made by or anticipated of
Corbett and Fftzsimmons and their
respective managers. This is simply
perversion of language that should not
be permitted to go further According
to Webster. "Fluke" means IAN acci-
dent or unexpected advantage" and Is
synonymous of stroke of good luet.
''Flunk." on the same authority, means
TO back out from an undertaking
through fear" Now let us have no
more 'fluke" when we mean funk"
at least In Montana. We can't expect
to educate the whole country, but we
can certainly preserve our own purity
OF dfction and that's what.

A LIVELY AFFAIR.
A Disappointed suitor Makes Young
Couple some Trouble.


A lively affair occurred between AL
bany and Wells Friday evening. Here
Is the history as told by the Albany.
Ore, Democrat: Barnard Hecker sew
eral months ago resided In California.
He was engaged to a daughter of Will
lam Rifles. Sam Barnett. a nephew of
Rifles, seems to have been jealous. and
In spite, wrote some very mean and
false letters to Mr.. Hecker about his
future wife. Mr.. Hecker came to Ore
gon to be married about two months
ago. He gave Barnett "A hours in
which to leave, and Barnett left, but
returned afew days ago, and, as well as
a younger brother came here from the
East. In the meantime Mr. Hecker
and Miss Rifles had been married. Bar
nett was again ordered TO leave, and
promised to do so. but did not. Yester-
day Mr.. Rifles was shown the letters,
and was greatly incensed. He took
Barnett TO task for IT, and showed one
of the letters to young Barnett. He
drew a revolver, according to Mr..
Riles' version, and made him give up
the others. The Barnetts then went 20
John Tomlinson's, where they were
boarding. followed by Mr.. Rifles. who
tried to get a gun, but they would not
give him one; then he went home, two
miles away, and got a shotgun and
came back. He found Mr.. Hecker and
the younger Barnett in a fierce fight
over the AFFAIR. Just then Sam Bur-
nett, who had been hiding in The barn,
came out and fired in the air, he said
to frighten Hecker away. Rifles saw
him and fired at him twice. but failed
to hit him. The Barnetts then agreed
to leave, packed their things, were
brought to- Albany and left on the
overland. Sam said he proposed to
come back, but the younger Srother
