FIGHT WITH CHINESE PIRATES.
They Capture q City and Arc Overcome Only
After . Hard Fight.

TACOMA. Aug. 8. -AdviceS received from
Japan to-day say that early in July the Chinese
gunboat Chaown. of six guns, while cruising
among the islands OF the Chusan archipelago,
WAS sent for to protect the city OF Tungshako,
which had been captured by 200 Chinese pirates
OF the worst class. They were pillaEing and
robbing on every hand. having no knowledge Of
the proximity Of the gunboat-
When the pirates learned that the war vessel
was approaching they quickly fitted up war
ship of their own by loading 24-pound guns a
large junk, the sides Of which were protected
with sand bags.
Half OF the pirates threw up embankments
on the sand hills overlooking the bay, placed
more cannon there and began lively fusillade
as the gunboat steamed into the bay.
A fierce battle ensued for two hours, when the
commander OF the gunboat sent landing party
OF 90 sailors to capture the pirates. The gun
boat soon after silenced the cannonade from the
Junk with some shots from her largest guns. A
part Of the pirates on land ran into the woods,
but eighty fought the sailors hand TO hand. Two
pirates were shot down and others wounded.
The balance OF tho eighty were captured and
put to death: The junk was taken away as a
prize. Eight Chinese were killed.

The Warrcns Dredging Plant
Is Doing Good Work.
Boise Statesman.
John Richie, the well known
farmer, has returned from War
rens, where he has been employed
by the company operating the
great dredge. He states that the
company has operated under many
difficulties, but a successful run is
now being made. Much of the
ground that was available in the
early part of the season was poor
but a good cleanup was made.
Much time was lost in moving the
dredge, as it required the relaying
of a large amount of track. The
night shift was unable to make
Roadway for this reason, as it
could not not lay track and move
the machinery in the darkness to
any advantage. 1t was finally de-
termined to lay off the night shift.
A cleanup was made and the
money realized was devoted to
payment of the men. Now the
dredge is handling gravel that is
all pay and the cleanup for the re-
mainder of the season will be large.

BITTER ROOT RESERVE.
Elk City and Dixie Both Included
in the Reservation; Also
Buffalo Hump.

Boise Statesman.
Surveyor General Straughan has
received map from the depart
ment showing the boundaries of
the Bitter Root and Priest River
reservations in this state. These
reservations were set aside by ex-
ecutive order dated February %,
1897. The Bitter Root reserve is
the second largest in the United
States, the only one ofgreater ex-
tent being in the Cascades. The
southern limit of it is the Salmon
river; the western line the range
line between townships 5 and &
east; the northern line the seventh
standard parallel north. This lat
ter line makes an offset some dis
lance eastward toward the north,
taking in few more miles of ter
ritory than if it continued straight.
The eastern line is in Montana;
it is laid so that all the Bitter Root
range is thrown in the reserve.
At the southeast corner the bOun-
Diary is irregular. Gibbonsville is
out of the reserve and Shoup
within it's boundaries.
The mining camps of Elk City,
Dixie and Buffalo Hump are in the
reserve, while the reserve corners
just at Pierce City. Under the
original order prospecting would
have been unlawful within the
reserve after March 1, 1898, at
which time all having claims would
have been obliged to have them in
shape to begin proceedings for
patent. But congress modified
this feature of the order, providing
that prospecting may always be
carried on within the reserves and
that miners may acquire the same
rights there as any other portions
of the public domain. Land may
also be taken up for agricultural
purposes; but the government will
exercise complete supervision over
the timber with the view of pre-
serving the forests. Patrols will
be established to see that the law
is observed.
