A Widows Four Children Swept Away

A Widows Four Children Swept Away
in Breath.
Three little children OF a widow named Jen-
kins, ,ot Sullivan, Mo-, went to aplace near the
barn to gather eggs. The place was rather
out OF the way and dangerous, owing to
enakes, which are numerous In that region.
One child thrust its hand into what IL sup
posed was the hens nest and quickly with
drew it. exclaiming that the hen pecked its
hand. The other two children put in their
hands with the same result and then set up a
loud cry.
The mother was at the well with the baby,
and the alarm so excited her that she left the
baby and ran 10 the assistance OF the three
children, who, it seems, had been bitten by a
rattlesnake. During the excitement the little
babe fell into the we'll and was drowned and
the three other children also died.

INDIANS TAKE LANDS
Drive Away Settlers and Threaten Them
With Death.


With Death.
Trouble has again broken out between
Kalispell Indians and settlers along the east
side OF the Pend d'orielle river. in Idaho,
over the disputed possession OF what the In
clans claim is their reservation but which is
in reality government land. A large delega-
tion OF white settlers came to Spokane. Wash,
the other day and stated that they were driy-
en- of their farms by Indians. who threaten
ed them with death IL they dared to rotnrn.
The redskins forcibly took possession OF the
homes aud property of the whites and told the
latter that such was their instructions from
Indian Agent Bubb. The settlers are prepar-
ing to go back armed and In a force, and
drive the Indians out Of the neighborhood.
The trouble arises directly from the fact
that settlers have been granted land that laps
on the reservation and the general land office
issued orders n month ago to the land office
there to issue no patents for lands In the i'm
mediate neighborhood Of the reservation.

The astronomers may argue that the

are much less numerous than they were
last year, yet the fact remains that the
great drcuth which began in Iowa, Ne
braska, Wisconsin, eastern Illinois.
northern Missouri, and southern Mime
scta in the midsummer of 1898 is still
practically unbroken.
This dry spell in the states mentioned
began about July 1, two years ago. The
truth is that the "droughty conditions"
has been the burden of local weather o.
servers report in most OF the sections
referred to since 1856. Therefore in or
der to set ourselves Alright, we will say
that in the midsummer of 1893 the arid
conditions were increased, and that the
average rainfall has been from one-third
to one-half less annually than that of
the yearly average Tor the twenty-five
preceding seasons.
1t may also be said that ii would take
every drop of water which is today rush

mentioned and the southern boundary

The wheat field has been all but ruined
by the frost and drOuth. The great corn
belt may recover, but the prospects are
rather blue, especially when we consider
that May gave one-fourth the usual sup
ply of moisture.
The entire scope of country specially
alluded to is dryer than it ever was be-
fore on June 1, since known to white

upon millions of trees and shrubs, es-
pecially red elm and sumacs and young
ash have died for want OF moisture; and
according TO eternal fitness of things,
their absence only tends to increase the
arid conditions. We have 10 panacea to
offer, and would like TO know that the
outlook in the upper Missouri and Mssis-
sippi valleys will be in some way changed
