SIMPLY MURDER.
Captain vanersdu1e Reports on the
Killing of Indians in the Jack
sons Hole Country.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ia report
sent to the war department by Cap.
tain J. T. Vanersvale of the Seventh
infantry, late acting agent at the Fort
Hall Indian reservation. on the SUBJ
ject the trouble with the Bannock
Indians, has been forwarded to the
secretary of the interior. The report
says in part:
Being short rationed and far from
self-supporting, the Bannocks hunt
for the purpose of obtaining susie
nance BY treaty they are granted
this privilege. 1t would seem that
the killing of these Indians under the
circumstances is nothing more or less
than murder Further. 1 believe there
is no wanton slaughter Of game by
them, while it is a notorious fact that
hundreds of animals are killed by
white men for nothing more than
heads and horns. The Indians can
hardly be expected to submit to the
killing of their people while engaged
in an occupation which they think
they have right to follow, more
quietly than white men would do, and
failure by the government to take
proper action is apt TO result in SER
ious loss of life and property"

FARM sEPARATORs,

Farmers are not making any too
much money, in fact, a large majority
of them are not making enough
Those with diaries have little bet
ter show than others, because dairy
goods have heretofore been high. One
of the prettiest and neatest little ma
chimes ever introduced to the dairy
farmer is the Farm cream separator.
1t is asserted on good authority, that
twenty cows and one separator will
produce more butter than twenty-five
cows without separator. The old
fashioned plan of setting milk in shall
low pans, INDUCED in by our grand
mothers, was good for its day and
generation, but it did not get all the
butter out of the milk; in fact, dur
ing summer it did not get one-half
of it. Low prices of farm produce bet
inventors to. work to save this u IL
ance of butter, and the cream separ-.
ator is the result. These machines
chimes are run either by hand or = u
jet of steam, without the use of an
engine, and can be proftably used
to skim for as few as five cows or as
many as fifty. If a farmer has over
fifty cows, it will pay him 10 get
creamery sized separator. They are
simple machines to run, and a boy or
girl fifteen years old can easily man
age one Among their advantages is
the fact that they leave the skim
milk fresh from the cows for feeding
to stock The milk is separated as
fast as the bucket is emptied by the
mixer. Cream from a separator will
keep fresh much longer than cream
from pans, and it is in better condi-
ton to make ice cream. One of these
little machines will pay for itself in
six months in any good-sized dairy,
in the increased yield of butter.

ROCHESTER, n. Y, Aug. 1S.-Max
L. Gutman, a politician and retired
jewelry manufacturer, attempted to
commit suicide last evening by shoot
ing, after he had vainly endeavored to
kill his four daughters. He is now in
hospital in an unconscious condition
and death is hourly expected. Gutman,
who was sitting in the parlor OF his
residence conversing with his -FOUR
daughters, went to bookcase ana
took therefrom an old-fashioned four
barrelled pistol. He wheeled suddenly
around, pointed the weapon at them,
then commanded them to sit still. He
then closed the door of the parlor and
announced to his daughters that he IN
tended to shoot them, one by one.
There are four shots here" he ex-
claimed, brandishing the revolver,
lone for each of you. Then l will load
again and kill myself. Sit still now
Instead, they ran out into the yard
and alarmed the neighbors. When the
police came, although he had shot
himself twice, he held them at bay Tor
some time. He has been acting
uueerly for some time. On pad in
Gutman's room was found this:
Max L. Gutman, on account OF
deceptive wife, killed himself deliber-
ately for numbering his children. No
insanity; no drunkenness.

MANURE ORCHARDS AND FRUIT

Many, many trees are starved, to

why he gets no fruit and his trees are

potash and bone phosphoric acid, the
two great elements for fruit foSSSta-

Hence the ashes and bone are pre-
ferable, the nitrogen being prone e

farmer, how to renovate old and run

gone, such trees can be reclaimed for
several years of fruitage. | would not
attempt the whole renovation in one

GATHERING AND PACKING F

In spite of the cry of hard l &es''-

mains that the consumption of CT e.
sound fruit is increasing faster tHsn
the production, but it must reach the
markets in fine condition, and be
properly distributed. Parker Earles
words upon this subject are truthful.
timely and full of food for reflection.
Read what he says:
1.-The next great thing to dc after

Gus chemical affinities and agencies
of the soil and the air and the sun
shine have done their work, under
your protection against enemies-and
you have your crop of noble fruit

tenderly and pack with the greatest
care, so that every package win be
perfect of its kind, and just what

simple matter of handling fruit with
honestly

ITO begin with, we use no baskets
for gathering tree fruits but what are
cushioned at hte bottom and lined
on the sides with cloth. This costs
but a few cents for each basket, and
1t will pay its cost every hour it is
used, in saving the bruises, scratches
and chatting which later on cause dis
hgurement and decay. All fruits
should be handled as carefully as

No other than standard sizes of
packages shOu,d be used, and they
should be new, sweet, clean and

to cheat the buyer in size of package,
or by stuffing the middle with inferior
rubbish while the ends are fair. Al
most of the whole fruit packing fraten-
nifty has become disgraced by these
silly attempts to cheat and rob the
fruit buyer, until the name of fruit
grower and fruit packer is held in
derision by most fraud-hating men.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-No infor-
nation has been received at the
Japanese legation in confirmation or
denial Of the report that a cabinet
crisis exists in Japan, though the lega-
ton would not necessarily be informed
of such an occurrence until the for
nation of new ministry.
The report of dissolution was, how
ever, a surprise to the members of the
legation, and caused great interest
While accustomed to look on Counts
Ito and Yamagata as almost perma-
nent parts of the Japanese govern
ment, they admit that there has been
dissatisfaction expressed among the
opposition politicians concerning the
recession from the terms of the original
treaty, and it is surmised that any
cabinet changes will be due to this
criticism.
They think, however, a change on
this account is improba BILE, as in Japan
the ministry is the creation of the
emperor and its continuance in office
is in no wise dependent on popular ap-
prevail, except SO far as the ministers
may personally be Influenced by it.
Furthermore, they find il difficult to
realize there should be any misunder-
standing on the question OF rank
Both Ito and Yamagata are counts.
The former holds the highest decora-
ton within the gift of the emperor,
and the latter is a marshal of the en-
pire. 1t is not understood why men
who have already been so highly
honored should make trouble over the
question of the conference of an honor
which would be only a slight advance
over their present positions.
No one at the legation will venture
an opinion as to who might succeed
Count Ito as prime minister in case of
his permanent retirement.

PRESERVING CHERRIES.

1t is accepted that sun preserved
Strawberries are better than those
prepared in any other way, and now a
correspondent tells how to preserve
cherries in a similar way: Stone the
cherries and put them on platters or
in fiat dishes. To each pint of cher
ries put a scant pint of graduated
sugar Mix them well by putting in
first the pint of cherries, and then
sprinkling the sugar over Let them
stand over night, and by morning
the sugar will have extracted much
of the juice If they seem not to be
very juicy in the morning, set Mach
platter in the oven for a few minutes
only, or in warm place about. the
stove until the juice has come out
freely Then set the pfaterS in the
sun-in the hottest place you can find
and put either glass or some SORT
of very thin netting over them. In
from a day and a half to two DAYS
the syrup viii thicken, and the fruit
I'M become semi-transparent Put
cold into jars and close them, and the
cherries are ready for winter use. No
heating is necessary; but it is a little
better to put into setf-sealing lars
than into open ones, merely to Keep
the fruit from drying.

WIDE TIRES.

In the solution OF the good roads
problem, wide tires will be an element
of no slight Importance, says a writer
in Live Stock and Farm Journal.
This is fact that has been recog-
nized by the law makers of many
countries. including the legislatures
of some of the states in this country.
In France, where they have good
roads, the wide tire is compulsory.
The Pennsylvania legislature, at its
recent session, passed a persuasive
tires of vehicles. The enactment
tire RENTS a certain portion of every
mans road tax providing the tires on
his wagon are made of a certain
width. In our younger days, when
turnpikeS upon which toll was
charged were common, many of the
turnpike companies Disseminated in
their tolls in favor of the wide tire,
reducing the charge if the tread of
the wagon was broad, and increasing
it if it were narrow. In the west,
where prairie soil must be the prin-
cipal material of which the roads are
made, width of tire is even more i'm
portant than in the east. where stone
is abundant as material. If wide tires
were used and the roads kept well
drained and shaped up with a suita-
BILE grader the road bed would soon be
compacted so that for most of the
wear at least it would be firm and
smooth under the wheels, but with
narrow tires constantly cutting ruts
in the prairie soil a good road seems
almost an impossfbility with the re-
sources and material at our command.
The wide tire is not only good for
the roads, but good for the user of the
wagon as we'll. He can haul with
them almost double the load that can
be haulded on narrow tires, even
when he is the only teamster who has
them. AS soon as the use of the
broad. fat tire becomes general the
load can be considerably increased,
and even on a common dirt road it
will not be necessary to spend more
that half the amount to keep it in re-
pair that is now required. Good drain
age and wide tires are a long step
in the direction of solution of the
good roads problem; indeed, we are
not sure that we should not reverse
the order and say wide tires and good
drainage. There must be starting
point and the individual can control
the tread of his own wagon, while he
cannot. individually, control the
drainage. 1t would be better, there
fore. to begin at the end that is prac-
tically within the reach of each mans
control and get the wide tires first,
and the good roads will then be cas-
Ter of attainment

The export of $1,000, 900 of gold since

$1,000, 900 to the treasury reserve since
August 1 are not apparently causing
any anxiety to the head of the bond
syndicate Mr. j. Pierpont Morgan,
who is cruising Oh his yacht Corsair.
Mr.. Morgan was asked today whether
it is true that the gold exports were
caused in part by the return of bonds
which the syndicate sold in Europe last
spring.
No he said emphatically. cit is
not
DO you think any considerable
amount of the bonds will come Back
soon, Mr.. Morgan? 1t is reported in
New York that $10,00000O are likely to
be resold in our market.
That's q pure guess. How can they
know? The bonds are widely dis
tributed in Europe. The holders won't
get together. 1t is not likely that any
large number of investors will send
their bonds back under existing money
conditions in Europe"
