REPORTS ARE GOOD AND BAD.
Lemhi Indians Are Worthless, but
Many Others Are Doing Well.

Washington, Nov. 1.-The majority of
annual reports of Indian agents TO the
commissioner of Indian affairs are of en-
couraging nature and indicate progress
generally along civilized lines.
Some of the reports, however, are not
SO gratifying, and make some surprising
statements. Unusual in the annual report
is the following arraignment in the report
in the report of E. M. Yerian, in charge
Of the Lemhi Indians in Idaho. He says:
They are addicted to gambling, horse
racing and dancing and the influence of
the so-cailed medicine man operates to
the disadvantage of the tribe. Their real

COLONEL wARINa Is DEAD.
Caught Yellow Fever While on
Government Duty.

New York, Oct. 30.-Colonel George Z.
Waring, Jr., died of yellow fever yester-
day at his home in this city, where he has
been since he arrived from Havana on
the Yucatan Tuesday last. He was 81
years of age. His son Guy lived for some
years in Spokane, and Okanogan county,
Washington.
DIR. Blauvett, who had been attending
Colonel Waring during his illness, was
summoned at l o'clock this morning. He
found Waring had been attacked with
black vomit. This symptom continued
all morning. Waring died at quarter
TO eight. The body was placed in her.
metically sealed coffin and every precau-
ton taken to prevent spread OF the dis
ease.
Colonel Waring had just returned from
Havana, where he was sent by the gov
ernment to ascertain the exact sanitary
conditions and report the best methods
for putting the place in frst-class sani-
tary shape. Waring was apparently well
when he left Havana and felt only slight
ly i'll during the latter part Of the voyage,
but when he reached home he was obliged
to take to bed. 1t was then discovered
that he was suffering from yellow fever.

PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION.
Thanksgiving for Glory Of Victory
and the Hope of Peace.

Washington, Oct. 30.-The president
has issued the following thanksgiving
proclamation:
by the president Of the United States:
"A proclamation: The approaching No
venber brings to mind the customs OF
our ancestors, haliowed by time and root
ed in our most sacred traditions of giving
thanks to Almighty God for all the bless
ings he has vouchsafed to us during the
past year. Few years in our history have
afforded such cause for thanksgiving. We
have been blessed by abundant harvests,
our trade and commerce have beeYwo
derfully increased, our public credits been
improved and strengthened, all sections OF
our country have been brought together
and knitted into closer bond OF national
purpose and unity.
"Ihe skies have been for time dark
ened by the cloud OF war, but as We were
compelled to take up the sword in the
cause of humanity, we are permitted to
rejoice that the conflict has been of brief
duration, and the losses we have had TO
mourn, though grievous and important,
uaNc uttu 81 ttNs toHsiutiihS uie SiShe
results accomplished, as to inspire us with
gratitude and praise to the Lord of Hosts.
We may laud and magnify his holy name
that the cessation OF hostilities came so
soon as to spare both sides the countless
sorrows and disasters that attend pro-
tracted war.
81 do therefore invite all my fellow cit
izens, those at home as we'll as those who
may be at sea or sOiouuing in foreign
lands, to set apart and observe Thursday,
the Gath day of November, as day of
national thanksgiving to come together
in their several places of worship for a
service of praise and thanks to Almighty
God for all the blessings of the year, the
mildness of the seasons and the fruitful
ness of the soil, for the continued prosper
ity of the people, for the devotion and
valor of our countrymen, for the glory
of our victory and the hope of righteous
peace, and to pray that the divine guild
ance which has brought heretofore to safe
ty and h nor, may be graciously continued
in the years to come.
Sin witness whereof, etc.

OF State"
