street cars, and other public places.
of that peculiar American growth,
the splitting bipedal hog, writes an
open letter to one Of the newspapers
in that city. "The trouble is" he
truly declares, that in making rules
| corporations omit to prescribe penal
| ties or to enforce them Or to insist
upon their officers enforcing them.
| What is the use of having a placard
in IL car prohibiting a habit that no
self respecting or refined person would
think of doing without giving the
employees powers to enforce it? A pub
lie conveyance is the only place where
people are absolutely at the mercy
and discretion of every other person,
and the rules governing their conduct
ought to he absolute and instantly and
absolutely enforced. To he quietly

except Red Thunder. but Cronan told
him he would give no conditions-they
must surrender absolutely. give up all
arms and ammunition, and he should
arrest all lie wanted. If they didn't
like these terms the marshals had
come there to fight and were ready.
All this time the deputies had been
working nearer. and by now had a
temporary cover provided within $50
yards, at which distance Winchester
bullets would easily riddle the logs.
The breeds had removed the .chinking
from the upper logs. leaving narrow
lateral Sits all around, through which
their guns were pointed. Soon after
the breeds
Surrendered Internationally,
though it was some time before the
prisoners were loaded in the wagons.
Fifty-fOur guns We're found. most of
their Winchesters having been hid
den, but can be found later. Each
man was required to write his name
on his gun. Only those for whom
warrants already out We're taken
to town, the others being allowed to
go for the present. They are Red
Thunder, Joe Langan, Joe Demoreis,
Chasseur lie POtreau, Francois Lam
gan. Alex La Rogue. Daniel Short.
Red Thunder made a desperate re-
sistance when arrested, attacking
Deputy Daggett with his knife. It
took three to handcuff him. He is
eighty-seven years old, but is almost
crazy with manical strength. While
negotiations pending he had
tried to kill one of his breeds for IA
yoring surrender. The prisoners were
brought to Rolla. Other breeds pres
ent told they could have their
shotguns by applying to the marshal
and being identified as the man whose
name was attached to the gun. thus
furnishing conclusive evidence of
their participation in the outbreak. 1t
is the intention to arrest all present
for armed conspiracy. Chief Little
Shell was arrested on the reservation.
When returning to the agency after
the surrender, Agent Hall met a band
of $50 breeds and Indians on the way
to st. John to reinforce the breeds at
Langan's. They were headed by Lit
tie Shell. head chief of the reserva-
ton. Hall succeeded in pursuading
them TO turn back, informing them
that the others had all surrendered.
If they had arrived while the attack
was in progress it might have been
unpleasant for the II arshals.

What a Soldier Can Carry.

In accordance with the instructions
of the German minister of war, Prof.
Zuntz and Staff Surgeon Schumberg
have made a series of experiments
with regard to the weight that can
be carried by soldiers on the march.
Five students Of a public institute
volunteered as subjects for the two
doctors, and always undertook their
marches in full marching order. The
marches were all of the same length,
viz: PATS kilometers Us miles and
50 yards); the weight carried was
varied, viz: %, q and 81 kilo-
grammes 4S 2-5 pounds, 1926 pounds
and 63 Is pounds.) The tests result
ed as follows: ~ 1t was found that
| with AZ pounds and a moderate tenn
perature a man could march the re-
quired distance, and ever further,
without any distress or i'll effects
whatever. In very hot and close
weather slight inconvenience, such as
very profuse perspiration, high pulse
and hurried breathing were expert
enced; but these Don disappeared
when the march was over. No bad
effects remained the next day, SO that
such marches could advisedly be UNI
dertaken several days in succession.
C2) With the next weight. (592- rs
pounds) during favorable weather no
i'll effects ensued; but in hot weather
fatigue was produced, which was felt
until the next day, 30 that the second
days march was begun under worse
conditions than that of the first day.
(3) With the third weight (G5 Is
, pounds) the i'll effects produced were
decided. The tests gave distinct and
definite results. 1t was found thot
several days practice with the light
, est burden (4S2-5 pounds) caused the
carrying of it and the marching with
: it to become continually more easy
+ and convenient, whereas practice
with the heaviest burden reduced the
Inconvenience in hardly any degree.
. Many facts were established which
; will undoubtedly lead to modifca'
|. tons in certain details of heavy
marching drill. In order to confirm
the results obtained the experiments
2 were repeated with several Landwehl
and Reserve men, some Of whom
were out of military training, while
others were in active service. Tht

Humidifyins the Air In M,il..


A writer in an Industrial journal
calls. the attention of cotton manufact-
urers to the necessity of securing i'm
proved apparatus for humidifying the
air of their mills. He says that while
in Europe many kinds of machines
have for some years past been EN-
ployed for this purpose; in this cOEn-
try the Anticipated method of introduce
ing vapor steam into the different
departments has held its ground. The
advantages of injecting warm, soft
air into any apartment of a mill
where the air il cold and full of cleo
tricity is well understood by the
manufacturers. incidentally, it is
very conducive to the comfort of the
employees. and work people, who are
not comfortable will not give the
same return as those who are. 1t in
estimated that an increase of at least
5 per cent can be gained in labor in
cotton mills by humidifying the air.
and q further 10 per cent can be OH
tanned by this same means in the ac-
tual product Of the mill. To accom-
plish this work without injury to the
health of the operative, or damage
to machinery frcm dampness, has
been made the subject Of much study
and experimenting, and E.any ma
chimes Of greater or less suitability
have been devised. The perfect hui
modifying machine has yet to appear.
and inventors might do worse than
concentrate their attention III that
direction.

Rolla. N. d., May 1.-THE half-breed
rising has been squelched and with
out loss of life. The marshals were
astir soon after 5 this morning.
Cronan having decided that further
efforts at inducing a peaceful sur
render were useless he determined II
they would not surrender their fort
at L.angan's to storm it.
The posse left here in a wagon af-
ter 6 and drove sixteen miles to the
mounted scouts watching the direct
them from an unexpected direction.
so they had no time to gather from
outlying camps. The breed fort was
reached at $40. The wagons were
left half a mile in the e and the
marshals advanced, spreading out so
as to command the north and west
sides. being the easiest of access. The
breeds location was very strong in
defensive position, two log houses
facing south and a large log stable
| north of the house, extending east and
west. The fort Is on the top OF Q
gentle eminence with no with
in 800 yards. Spades had been brought
and the marshals began preparing
shallow rifle pits. Marshal Cronan
and Indian Agent Hall, leaving their
rifles behind. walked up to the fort,
the deputies being OIL a sharp lookout
for. any
Hostile Movement.
The breeds refused to talk with Gro
nan. but told Hall they wanted still
further time to hear from Washing
ton. Cranan told them to make up
their minds right quick, as he meant
to attack them at once. His plan was
for the deputies on the stable side to
work up as close as possible by means
Of n temporary V thrown up by
spades, by which time it was thought
that much of the ammunition in the
stable would have been exhausted,
then for a general rush from both
house and stable sides. BY 1890
Cronan was ready to begin, when the
breeds sent out n message that they
wanted to see him. He returned word
that they could send out n Of their
chiefs, and they sent Chasseur LIE
Potreau, who was chief in the raid
in the st. John hardware store Thurs
day night, when they stole all the
guns and AMMUNITION. LIE Potreau
wanted time to hear from WASH
ington. He was told that it vas too
late. He then offered to surrender
