WASHINGTON. Aug. 1I.-Indian Agent
Teter. of the Fort Hall Indsln reser-
walton, in charge of the Bannocks, will
as soon as mail from the Indian bureau
at Washington can reach him, be
greeted with an unpleasant surprise
in the shape of Il reprimand from head
quarters for giving out official COM
munications in advance of their re-
ceipt at the Indian bureau.
A few days ago he gave out his re-
port on the recent troubles with the
Bannocks and the whites before it
reached the officials at Washington,
and he has since made public an Of
fetal dispatch that the bureau was
especially anxious to keep secret for a
time. This is why he may receive an
unpleasant communication in n few
days.
The dispatch in question was about
a ditch which Agent Teter wants his
Indians to work on. 1t is an extern
sion of the Idaho Canal Co.'S i%rrigating
ditch. The lands of the reservation
are to a large extent worthless for
agriculture without water, and it is
almost impossible FOR the Indians to
make a living by farming until they
can secure the water for irrigation.
Recently n contract was made with
the Idaho Canal Co. to extend it's
bitches into the reservation. The
company was TO receive 500, 900 and
the Indians were to do the work. Be-
fore the contract was approved by the
secretary of the interior complaints
were made by other canal companies
that the Idaho company was receiving
too high Il payment, and the matter
was suspended until the secretary of
the interior could Investigate the mat
ter. A contract will be made within
! month or six weeks with one com
pany or another which will put the
Indians to work and enable them to
earn a living during the winter.
The Cruiser Columbia All Right.
WAsHINGTOS, Aug. 1.-THE report
of the board appointed to examine the
cruiser Columbia, in drydock at New
York. to ascertain the extent of the
injuries received by her while IN dry
dock at Southampton, shows that the
damage sustained by the vessel was
trivial. She was not injured struc-
turally, and the defects noted by the
board were merely local, and can be
remedied at small expense. This dis
poses OF the sensational stories that
the Columbia was weakened struc,
turally.

New Artificial Flowers.

The Partisan florists have prepared some
wonderfully novel blossoms for the use Of
the millners in decking the new hats and
bonnets, which will be greatly adorned
with flowers of every kind. A real novel
ty is the humble potato blossom, which,
though sounding odd, has a good effect.
Large silken peonies in rich deep shades
are placed in clusters Of five or six at the
back of hats.
Foliage alone, in outstanding pieuets,
will be greatly worn-for instance, large
green violet leaves or punches Of lilac
leaves. These lilac leaves in metallic col
Urs-such as steel, copper, bronze-are
greatly used by the leading modistcs on
the early spring models prepared by them.
One lovely hat of rough brown straw
was edged with little tufts Of the common
eroundsel and an outstanding tuft of
groundsel was tied on the side of the hat
with a careless bow Of broad green satin

HIS APPETITE FOR WHISKY.
After Twenty Years Total Abstinence

ing story as an illustration OF the
strength Of the acquired drinking habit:

there are in the town." Then he told
his story:
Il was a popular and entertaining
young man, the life of &'cry social gath

fixed. Then | married, my wife bellev-
ing, as romantic girls often do, that she
could save me- She had fearful time
with poverty and modification for some
years. wanted to resist the habit as
much as she desired that | should, but

vitation to enter barroom and take a
drink, and that was the beginning OF

vival meeting in her church. | became

and the members of tho church gathered
about me and supplemented my good
wife's efforts. The power which | re-
ceived there enabled me to resist temp
tation, until finally could go anywhtit
and refuse to take drink.
