The Chinese Riots.

Washington, June 1a-The Chinese
legation is still without information
as to the report that the depreda tons
on American missions in China. It is
considered settled that no lives have
been lost, and that any depredations
which may have occurred are confined
to mission property. 1t is said that If
reports are confirmed that officials
countenanced the destruction they will
be severely dealt with. 1t is customary
ITO degrade viceroys even when they
are not responsible for riots in their
provinces, and the punishment, it is
said, doubtless will be more severe if
they have aided the outbreak as the
reports state.

Some people make hard work out of
very simple and easy things. Just

KNOW WHERE THE GOLD is.

An Old Sioux Indian and His Wife Know
the Location of the Rich Placer Fields
on Grand River.
There has long been tradition
on the plains west Of the Mis-
souri, river and especially in the
Black Hills region that some
where in the Grand riyer country,
north of Deadwood, there is a
gold bearing region where the
precious metal in the form of mug
gets may be picked up on the sur
face in the beds of the water
washed coulees. The interesting
story gains almost an enforced
credence from the fact that the
red man has often been found in
possession of nuggets OF such
size and character that they could
not have been obtained at any
known point in the Hills, and nc
white placer miners having beer
recently killed from whom they

THE pKoH1s1T1oN PARTY.

Henry Indep en- del MT; T h e
straightout prohibitionists have
decided to put a straight ticket in
the field in this state next year.
The only effect of movement Of
this kind, in our judgement, will
be to weaken their cause in the
regular prohibition contest. This
is the record of the prohibition
party as a party. There are too
many paramount issues before
the people Of the state and nation
to hold any considerable number
Of them to one idea simply, in a
general election contest.
