Already it is beginning To show signs of

one of the best-known and most popular
men in that region. In speaking of the
big sportsmens show held at Boston last
month, ana what it did for Moosehead.
Capt. Robinson said that he thought the
coming season would be one of the largest
that the summer hotels in Maine ever
had.
1t cost lots of money to make the ex-
hbit which the Moosehead people had at
the Boston show, and il will be a long
time before they get it all back. but they
believe that it is sure to come. They are
so confident that the exhibit will bring
money To them. that they are already
making preparations for next years

The Moosehead people do not believe
that two shows. one in New York and
one in Boston, as was the case this year
are so good as only one exhibition. Some
of them think that to alternate between
the two cities every year would be a bet

In accordance with the terms of the
resolution, the President will demand

The demand for this will be f1at-footed

Nor Will any compromise that contem-

establishment of Spanish control or the
raising of the Spanish flag over the
country be accepted by the administra-
ton.
Possibly it may be that a suggestion
that the matter has been referred to

for its consideration, may be instru-
mental in postponing for a brief time
the putting into effect of the Congress

disposed not to brook any further de-

INDIANS VERY UNEASY.
Feared That There May Be a General Uprising
In the West.

st. Paul, Mimi, April l9,--1t is the opin-
ion of an army officer that Col. Bacon
will not have a sinecure as commander
of the department of Dakota and it is
limited that large force of militia will
be placed under his command.
Advices have been received that the In
dams in the West are giving evidences of
disturbance. The braves in Oklahoma
are already participating in "sun dances
and disturbed condition is apparent in
other parts. 1T is thought that the In
dams will take advantage of the absence
of the regulars to become troublesome,
In case there should be an Indian up
rising the officers of the regular army will
be badly missed They are familiar with
the Indian chiefs and know how to humor
or threaten, occasion demands. Should
the militia be ordered to service it is ex-
pected that several companies will be as
signed to forts in the West to meet any
emergency.
