Caused Excitement.

News has been received of an excit.
Ing but probably not serious encounter
In the northern part of the state few
days ago between party of Indians
and two men who were or who claimed
to be deputy game wardens. It seems
that the Indians have been nnder tho
impression that the treaty between the
tribe and the government gave them
the right to hunt and fish on the reser-
walton, but it is now declared by the
district attorney that this clause only
affects the territory as far as the Mis-
sissippi, and as the place where the en-
counter occurred was beyond this limit.
the seizure which was attempted was
probably legal. There were three In
dams in the party, and they had a.
many saddles of venison when the en-
countered the strangers. The latter
notified them that they must surrender
the game, which the Indians refused
to do, under their idea of the law. The
wardens then drew guns to enforce
their errand. The encounter was the
cause of considerable excitement,
which has, however, practically sub
sided, and there seems to be no danger
of further trouble resulting therefrom.
The Indians when brought to task for
their resistance, pleaded that they had
been previously victimized by white
visitors who claimed to be game war
dens, in order to secure venison and
other game which they were not skilled
enough to acquire by shooting, and it
is likely that the matter will be
dropped where it is.

Another Gold Deal.

The Baker group Of four gold claims,
located % miles northwest Of this city,
and owned by William Tarrant and Ed
ward Rogers of this place, was sold on
Wednesday to an eastern man Of eX-
t~ensive capital and mining experience,
after a very careful and thorough in
vestigation of the property. This prop
erty, like the Empire claim recently
sold by Messrs. Tarrant and Rogers,
which it adjoins on the north, presents
every indication of permanent value,
and promises to become, in time, n of
the leading gold producers of the Hills.
The consideration, which is doubtless
large, has not been given out, but it is
known that in addition to whatever
sun may have been advanced rs a first
payment, five thousand dollars has been
deposited in the First National bank OF
this city by the purchasers to be used
in the development of the property. 1t
is the purpose Of the purchasers to pro-
coed at once with the development OF
the property by sinking a shaft upon
the same, the work preliminary thereto
having already been commenced. A
blacksmith shop, boarding house and
other necessary buildings will be con-
structed Immediately, after which work
on the shaft will ensue, and be continu-
ed indefinitely
