The house will take up the Indian ap-
preparation bill. which has been passed
by the senate, tomorrow. There will be
a rule reported from the committee on
rules providing for the debate. Some OF
the Democrats oppose the rule. which
may lead to another eruption of differ
ences in the ranks of the minority. The
motions will be made that the house
concur in the senate amendments, but it
is predicted that the bill will be sent to a
conference. There will be much oppo-
sition to the senate amendment for
opening the lands Of the Uncompahgre
Indians in Utah. which contain gilsonite
deposits. and the Illinois members are
organizing an opposition to the amend
ment to transfer the main Indian ware
house from Chicago to Omaha. Repre-

OF course there is a reason for always

The top shell is coneave and the lower

the fat lower shell he assumes alder

ing the subject of plentiful game to
discuss the topic of Americas growing

new things Of interest TO sportsmen this

Despite any statement TO the con-

a better sportsman and a better shot
than his predecessors of former gene
rations. In fact, each recurring season
greatly benefits the conditions sur

revolution as gradual as it is sweep

past few years in the general art of
