ROUNDUP OF HORSES.

Five Thousand Animals Gathered in

From the Anaconda Standard.
Five thousand horses in a single bunch

and half-breed riders sending into the air

conceals the vast band of cayuses as the

Wild creatures before them, writes a cor
respondent from the Jocko Indian agency.
1t is a picture seldom seen now, and only
possible in the unrestricted range of the
reservation. picture, If seen, never to be
forgotten.
For five days these bronze riders have
secured the northern range of the reserva-
ton, driving before them every horse that
was found in this long stretch of country.
They have ridden across the rolling ground
of the lower valley; they have searched the
c&nonS; they have penetrated the dense
timber of the foothills; they have climbed
TO the open parks on the mountain side.
From valley and canon and hillside they
have driven the half-wild horses, and have
gathered them on the banks of the Pend
d'Oreille river for the cutting out

them shapely and handsome, 1t is true but
in every eye is a flash of wildness that be-

tame the owner. Here and there in mass

trot is big, fine-looking animal that evil

many of these. They are nearly all cayuses
of the eayusest order.
At one of the ranches on the banks of the
river there are three big, well-fenced pas
lures, and here the cutting. out will be
done. On the reservation there are now
about fifteen thousand horses. and of these
it is estimated that fully 1900 have no
right to the Indian range. This will do
much to improve the condition of the range,
and 1t is for this purpose that the big
roundup has been undertaken.
The band of horses. now being driven to-

d'Oreille river. AS soon as the cutting out
has been accomplished the riders will cross
the river, and will round up the stock be-
tween that stream and Crow creek, and
there will be another separation at the AL
lard ranch on Mud creek. In addition to
the removal of all horses, Agent Carter has
ordered that all cayuse stations may be
disposed of in order that there may be
some Improvement in the grade of horses

will accomplish double purpose.

From the New York Sun.

Announcement is made that Prof. Vic
tor Meyer has obtained an isolated deriva-
tive of nitromethane. the decorating power
Of which is alleged to exceed anything that
has ever been demonstrated in the line of
expiosives-a derivative which results from
the substitution of one atom of sodium for
one of the three atoms of the hydrogen
of the methane. In the preparation of this
substance Prof Meyer dilutes a certain
quantity of nitromethane with sulphuric
ether, and then adds, in alcoholic solution,
the body resulting from the action of the
sodium upon the alcohol. The precipitate
formed Is washed with ether. and then
dried by means of concentrated sulphuric
acid The compound is described as anhy-
drous, and its explosive force terrific. The
potassic derivative of the nitromethane is
also found to have great explosive energy.

A THOUGHT -"
THAT KILLED
A man!

He thought that he could trifle
With disease. He was run down in
health, felt tired and worn out, COM

backaches and headaches. His liver

thought to get well by dosing him

came the ending. He fell victim to

ought to have invested in a safe, re-

Mustnches I'm Office Hours.

From the London Globe.
When mustaches first came into fashion
in this country the authorities of the Bank
of England issued a mandate that their
clerks should not wear them during Office
hours" A decree of somewhat similar i'm
port which has recently been published by
the German admiralty is causing conster-
nation among the BARRIERS of Wilhelm
shafen and KEEL. In future the officers and
men of the imperial navy are either to lie
clean shaver or to wear full boards. The
mustache is condemned apparently, a
worthless compromise. But the hairGress-
ers are up in arms, foreseeing that their
naval customers. when forced to choose
between smooth face and a full beard,
will adopt the latter alternative.

A Cambridge, Mass. dispatch says of a
boat race including Yale, Harvard, Cornell,
Columbia and Pennsylvania: n.... ct
1t is safe to say that Harvard will not
interpose any objection to Yale as one of
the contestants If such race is arranged.
If this race takes place Harvard will have
fulfilled her agreement with Cornell. If the
proposition falls through, Harvard and Cor
nell will have their race as Ter contract.
Individually many Harvard graduates
have expressed themselves as favorable to
fve-cornered race. That Professor Beale
has no antagonism toward Yale is seen In
his utterances relative to a suggestion that
Yale will not be invited to send any men
to the handicap track meeting to be
held next spring in Cambridge. Professor
Beale said: II suppose Yale will be invited
the same as the other colleges. / see no
reason why she should not be asked. Har
wards policy is not to exclude Yale from
any event of the sort. This Is shown by
the triangular shoot of only few weeks
ago, in which Harvard, Princeton and Yale
participated. We shall merely refrain from
entering into any dual arrangement with
Yale for two years"

Princeton Beats Georgetown. Who De.
feated Yale. Who Defeated New York.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Washington, April 16-Princeton de-
feated Georgetown today by a score Of
II to in game which was marred by
the wildness of both pitchers. Altman
and McCreerey, each of them giving
nine bases on balls. In addition to this
Altman struck four men and McCreerey
had two disastrous wild pitches Hit
ting and fielding honors We're about
even, although Princeton surpassed in
all around team work. The feature of
the game was the work of Brooks at
short stop and Payne in left field. Will
liams played an excellent game behind
the bat.
Murphy and Gunster, the two Scran-
ton third baSemen, seemed to have an
off day, but the errors which are ac-
credited to them were all of the excus-
able kind. Murphy cut off a run at the
plate by a beautiful stop and throw
and also made corking hit, while
Gunster accepted three hard chances,
one of which was of the star order and
brought forth lusty cheers from the
Scranton delegation in the grand stand.
The game was virtually decided in the
eighth inning by three-bagger from
Payne's bat while three men were on
bases. Georgetown made q grand rally
in the eighth, but the four runs which
they made were not enough to catch
Princeton. The last inning was
marked by Harley's great base running,
stealing second, third and home.
