Prince Hohenlohe will start tomorrow for n

THE WHEEL IN THE ARMY.
Its Utilization by French, German,
and American Soldiers.

and American Soldiers.
The irrepressible and ubiquitous
modern device, the bicycle, grows
more and more serious and important
with every year of it's existence. Now
it is capturing the armies of the world.
The bicycle has invaded the military
circles of the greatest powers on the
globe. France has regular bicycle
corps, with wheels specially construct
ed for campaigning. One of the recent
devices proposed is bicycle with a
bayonet attachment, and propelled by
a gasoline motor, leaving the rider free
to handle his rife. A body mounted
on wheels of this character, charging
down one Of the elegant French high
ways against the enemy, would make
formidable appearance, whatever
the effect might be. Germany also has
its bicycle corps, and in addition to
that, with the thoroughness which al
ways distinguishes her in military af-
fairs, she has in training 1000 Great
Danes at Berlin who are to become
literally dogs of war" When let
loose their mission will be to rush at
an opposing bicycle brigade and pull
the riders off their wheels The dogs
are drilled to discriminate between the
German uniform and any other. All
operations are to be directed against
riders in a uniform not German.
Should the Germans have allies in the
feld on wheels, the results might be
disastrous.
The United States military authori-
ties, not to be behind in utilizing the
bicycle, have instituted experiments
with view to it's use in the field.
Gen. Miles has been in favor OF this

BY THE CHIEF ExECUTIvE
OF IDAHO.
Mr.. BLISS PRoDs THE AGENT
TELLS HIM TO HURRY ALONG HIS
TELEGRAPHIC REPORT OF
THE AFFAIR
ri - Il = -
No Good Likely TO Come Iof 1t I'm the
Opinion of the Officer In
Charge.

WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Heitfeld, of Idaho, received another dis
patch today from Gov. Steunenberg,
dated at Boise, as follows: a
Complaints continue today. Fences are be-
ing burned and cattle killed. Indians come
from Lemhi, Umatilla, Fort Hall and Duck
Valley reservations. They must dispense or
trouble Will soon follow.
This was soon communicated to the
interior department, and Secretary
Bliss Immediately wired Agent Irwin
at Fort Hall to expedite his telegraphic
report of the situation and called upon
the agents at Lemhi, Umatilla and the
Western Shoshone Duck Valley agen-
cies for reports.
Game Warden Manning, of Marys-
vale, Wyo, near the scene of the Jack
son Hole affair, part of the old Ban
mock hunting grounds, has urged a
proposition to disarm the Indians on
the Fort Hall reservation, and the mat
ter has been forwarded for considera-
ton through Gov. Richards and Sen
ator Warren, Of Wyoming. Agent r.
win has taken a decided stand against
it, and in report to the Washington
authorities, dated a day or two before
the present trouble, says:
The proposition to disarm the Indians of
this reservation is not practicable, and if 1t
were, would be Of no particular benefit, since
if 1t were possible to collect every gun on the
reservation, the supply could be renewed
within few hours from the various towns In
adjoining reservations. These Indians are not
armed in the ordinary sense OF the term, but
like all hunting people, some Of them possess
shot guns and rifles for hunting purposes
only. AS such arms are freely sold them
everywhere it would be worse than useless
to deprive the Indians Of these. The law re-
lating to hunting in Wyoming has been fully
and persistently explained, and is understood
violation of the law will do so willfuy and
with the expectation of being punished II
caught exactly as In the case of white men,
The agent adds that he does not be-
lieve many of them will venture into
the hunting regions this season, but
it can hardly be expected that a Gus
tom enjoyed for generations and which
they believe unjustly taken away, can
be broken up in one or two years. The
Indians, as a whole, however, acqui-
esce in the decision of the United States
supreme court, growing out of the
Jackson Hole trouble, in which the
hunting rights of the Indians were
negatively decided Some Indians,
however, he predicted, would slip away
unnoticed. In another letter the game
warden was advised by the agent as
the most effective way of preventing
their departure on these expeditions to
arrest and Jail the first Indians who
appeared in the vicinity.

HEAVY LAND SALES.

The sales of Northern Pacific rail-
road lands throughout Minnesota and
North Dakota are amounting to $780,
600 monthly, there being an unusual
activity on account Of new settlers ar
irving. This activity is not confined to
railroad lands by any menas, as shown
by the fact that filings at the United
States land offices in these two states
have been larger than any year since
1892 The sales of Northern Pacific
lands in the Bismarck district, have
thus far aggregated $4,000 acres, which
about equals the total sales in that
district for the past five years. Autumn
sales also promise well.
According to Great Northern reports,
this spring was a very dull one for
land sales, but since May 1, the pros
poets have frightened considerably. In

RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION.
Total for the First Half of the Year
Very Small


CHICAGO, June 30.-The Railway
Age reports that only 622 miles OF
track have been laid in the United
States during the first half of 1897
This is less than the corresponding
period of any year since 1875, with the
exception of 1894, when only $50 miles
of track had been laid up to July i.
In twentysix of the states and terri
tories no track has been laid this
year. Judging from the construction
now under way on the different lines
the total amount of track laid during
the entire year will be close to 2,000
miles-about the same amount that
was laid during each Of the last three
years. So far this year Louisiana
leads with Ill miles of track laid, and
California is second with SO.
