Peculiar Accident to a Horse.

Mr.. NJ. B. Prince tells US of pecu-
liar accident that befell one of his horses
Monday night. They run in a pasture
lot where there are number of fruit
trees. When Mr.. Prince went out
Tuesday morning imagine his surprise
to see one of the animals with it's right
hind leg hung in the fork of a peach
tree three feet above the ground. 1t
is supposed the horses were kicking at
each other and in this way the one in
question got her leg caught in the tree.
The skin and flesh above the hook joint
were considerably lacerated but be-
yond this no serious injury was sus-
tanned. 1t is remarkable that the leg
was not broken or the hip dislocated.
Mr.. Prince thinks the animal will soon
recover and beyond bad scar will
show no permanent marks of the acci-
dent.

CHICAGO, ILL, Nov. 21.-The Illinois

helpers 81 so and 81 80, cinder-snappers

harrow men 81 so. This scale is called a
readiustu ent of wages and not reduc-

wages of the ''second side" men who got
25-per-cent increase by striking in July,
1895, from Is to 25 per cent.
The men who compelled the company
to give them a 10-per-cent increase by
striking in May, 1895, are not affected by
the new scale. The notice posted states
''In case it is found necessary to make
further reductions in the above seal e

CANNOT P4F IHE INDIANS.
Kansas and Nebraska settlers Made
Netr Prnpos itiot. to the Otoes.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 21-The
long-pending case between certain settlers
in Kansas and Nebraska and the O .oe and
Missouri Indians, the lands of the latter
being purchased by the settlers and never
paid for, seems no nearer solution than
when they were bought.
Bad crops, it is claimed, prevented the
settlers from meeting their obligations TO
the Indians. From time TO time they
have made concessions to the settlers, but
the latter have tailed to pay. The last
proposition from the Indians was that the
settlers were TO pay the remainder due
about $220000 and interest-within year.
The settlers, however, refused to accept it.
The settlers now make counter propo-
sition. They bought these lands during
boom times and agreed to paw high prices
for them, but now want TO pay the value
appraised by the Government and interest
at per cent per annum from the date of
sale instead of the price agreed upon by
them when the tracts were sold at public
auction. They claim that the court who
ordered the lands sold at public sale was
acting contrary to the law under which ali
ceded Indian reservations are disposed of,
and therefore the agreement to pay the
higher price was n ull and void.

ployes by the supreme council of the Con-

which declared that all car service men

after midnight tonight.
Cars We're sent out this morning over
the various divisions as fast as manned.
Traffic is rapidly assuming its normal
state. There is not the slightest sign of
trouble. No attempt was made, however,
to run on regular schedule.
There is much dissatisfaction openly
expressed among the old employees of the
West End Street Railway Company at
the outcome of the strike, especially over
night to the effect that the strikers, who
desired to return to work must run their
chances of being again employed upon
personal application, and must take their
places IN turn ana below whatever new
men had been put in the strikers place
The company is said to be making
wholesale discharges of old employees to-

ported. New men are being employed in
