The climate in this region is arid ar q net well adapted to farming. tut these Indians last year raised upward of 5000 bushels of African corn, 4.000 tons of hay, 800 tons of corn fodder, 2,500 bushels of potatoes and 4oyoe0 melons.

COPPER IN THE WATER.
Not Allowed to Run to Waste
 at the Anaconda Mine.

Talking about the saving of cope held in solution iu the water issen from copper mines, John D. Henry an old Montsn miner, said
 "For a long time the wstar from the copper mines at Butte was allow to run of the owners of tie mines net seeminl tp understand the importance of treating the water for the copper in solution. A few years ago when the water from the Auscon1a mine was leased to an cl eadvi.ie miner, who took out Sl20,O00 in three years at a trifiing expense, saw copper mine in which water was a very inn portart factor in the saving of values. The mine was very wet and the ore was extremely susceptible to the action of water. The operators discovered this fact very soon by having to replace their iron pipes at very short intervals They then put in wooden pipes and treated the water with scrap iron in settling tanks. As soon as the water had been exhausted of its metallic value it was pumped to point at some distance away from the shait and permitted to percolate slowly through the crevices of the vein and by the time i; reached the stump it was again so heavily charged with cop per that i; was treated over again. The owners told me that the copper received in this way represented the prafits of their operation. In the | Butte mines the water is so heavily charged with copper that cetain parts of the pumps have to be replaced every | forty eight hours"

THE ENTERTAINMENT.
The Old and Young Spend an
 Enjoyable Evening.

The eptartainnent, for which the ladies of tie Epworth League have been making preparation for the past fortnight, came eff last evening, as previously annonced it would.
 The people mmenred te cougie- gate at an early hour, and by the time the curtain raised the ihsll was comfortably filled, but the crowd kept multiplying until standing room was at premium.
 The Mother Goose melodies and scenes were the first on the programme and the Mother Goose with her flock of goslins fairly took the house by sur prise with their perfect acting and childish melodies. The ljttie milk maid and her admires took their parts well, the acting and singing being perfect. The hasmakers and the Lit tie Bow Peep scenes were also fine, while the tableaux were beautiful. The Wand Driil was simply perfect, the children going through the many steps and motions with that precision only attaiU cd by careful training. Mrs. Jarley's Wax Figures, the leading feature Of tle stage part of the pro- gramme was excellent, all taking their parts as natural as If nodded for the occasion, while the two princIpals- Mrs. Jarley and John-were peiectly suited 10 their characters and went through their parts with such ease tha. they woUll at once be taken for professIonsls.
 The different Booths were well cup piled with beautiful wares and good things to eat, in the latter line hot iau,aiss and d, iiioioas ooiies sTo de- serving of especial mention. How ever they all appeared to do thriv- ing business ;ths fish pond was drained of its last minow and some strange fortunes were told.
 The receipts of the evening wass sl26, and s'ill we hear of hard times.

H. c. Herriek, ir. had quite an ex- citing experience few dsys since with prairie wolf. He wss ont ricing over the ranch in close proxi,ai,y 10 the river when suddenly his dogs run onto coyote which, in is eff ,r's to escape, made for the water with the dogs in hot pursuit and about midway of the stream was overtsksn au d il li until Mir. Herrick came up, when by a little encouragement the dogs took hold of his wolIship and attempted to drown the animal by forcing its head under water and holding it there. An idea struck the young man that here was an opportunity to secure 6 vsll- able addition to his mansgery and, putting the thought to action he took his rists and waded into the river {; securing the wolf he brought 1t to dry land but the thing was frightened ard vicious and hard to handle, however Clay improvised muzzle ont of piece of wire and after fixing the beasts mouth so that there was no danger from its biting, led and dragged it home.
 Reaching that haven of rest he tied mp his prize and allowed it little time for meditation on the change affairs had taken, but the wolf grew more vicious with each passing hour until finally, in self.protsction, Mir. H. with a heavy heart was forced 10 part with his pet by shooting it; and now hs is out of the wolf business.
