gercy. She began to form the men
in two lines. Taking hold of their
coats she would place a man on the
right flank and another on the left,
until she had divided the sheriff 8
posse. She then placed the sheriff at
the head Of one column and the con-
ductor, whom she regarded as sort
of captain, at the other, and then
made sign to them to go forward, one
half to the right and the other to the
left. Then she made it plain to them
that she would have them surround
the Indians. She brought her two
bony hands together slowly, with the
fingers spread out, and when they
were quite together she closed her
fists. So the sheriff made out she
would have them steal upon the In
dians and disarm them or awe them
into surrendering at the muzzles of
their guns, and he gave instructions
to the men accordingly. OF course
each individual must now use his
judgment, and SO the little band sur
rounded the Indians.
In the meantime the squaw stole
into the camp and squatted near the
fire. As the sheriff's men closed in
upon the Indians the squaw leaped to
her feet and put out hand as signal
for the band to be still. The Indians
listened, but the sheriffs men seeing
it all, stood still in the snow. Now
the squaw spoke to the Indians, say
ing that she had seen a great many
soldiers coming down the hill that
evening and giving it as her opinion
that the camp would be surrounded
and that if the Indians resisted they
would all be killed. When she had
succeeded in persuading them that it
would be best to surrender in case the
soldiers should come, she sat down
again. This, the sheriff concluded,
was signal for the men to advance,
and the posse moved forward. When
they were quite near, the Indians were
made aware of their presence by the
swapping of dry cedar bough, and
the sheriff, knowing that delay would
be dangerous, shouted to his posse to
advance. At the sound of his voice
the Indians sprang for their rifles, but
when they had got them and got to
their feet again, the sheriff's posse,
coming out of the woods from every
direction, held the glittering steel
barrels of their rifles in the glare of
the campfire and the Indians laid down
their arms.
The brakeman, who had concluded
that he was to be butchered or roasted,
was almost wild with Joy. When
asked by the sheriff why they held the
brakeman, the leader said the white
man was lost, they found him and
were only waiting for daylight, when
they would take him back to his peo-
pie and get ''heap rum" The sheriff
pointed to the white mans fettered
hands and asked the Indian to explain.
and the Indian said that the man was
cheap mad" and they were afraid
that if they left his hands loose he
would take their guns and kill them
while they slept, and if they left his
feet unfettered he would wander away
in the storm and be lost.
After consulting the conductor and
the more important members of the
posse, the sheriff concluded, as it was
manifest that the Indians were only
holding the brakeman for ransom, that
he would allow them to go their way,
after exacting a promise that they
would return at once to their reserva-
tion on the other side of the range.

Poultry Notes.


Vermin may be expected in filthy
henhouses.
1t is folly to expect eggs from poor
ly fed hens.
Nicely fattened poultry sells readily
and brings good prices.
AS q means of recreation for over
worked business men the poultry yard
offers many attractions.
Have lot of dry leaves or chopped
straw ready for the winter scratching
pen, as it is thing almost indispen-
sable for fowls; and then in this year
of cabbages there should be no lack of
green stuff to throw to them now and
then.
Fifty or more turkeys can be raised
on most farms every year without ever
missing what it takes to keep them.
They will bring enough ready cash to
buy the winter clothing for an ordin-
ary family, or pay years taxes on the
farm.
There is no better floor than one of
cement in the poultry house. Keep it
covered with fine sand or loan, which
will become mixed with the droppings
as they are made, and so increase the
amount of fertilizer and make 1t easy
to handle.
If you do not want the chickens in
the garden, take some of the garden
to them. Refuse cabbages are de-
light to them, and so are other vege-
tables, since green stuff is becoming
scarce. For the little trouble you
take you will be we'll repaid.
To fifty pounds of wheat bran mix
five pounds cotton seed meal, five
pounds corn meal and eight ounces of
salt and you have a most excellent
feed for laying hens, or any other
fowls. This should be wet to crum-
bly, mass before feeding. In winter
wet with hot water and feed quite
warm fc- breakfast.

Milk From Thin Cows.

1t is great mistake to allow a
mich COW to become very thin while
she is giving milk. If she be deep
mixer, she will never become very
fat, however highly fed. All that the
COW receives in feed in such case,
above what is needed to keep her in
thrifty condition, goes into milk and
butter, and is worth more in th4t
form far more than what it costs is
feed. 1t will be time enough to r.

Secret of Good Butter.

To have good butter the maker
must be given good milk, must keep
it clean, then use common sense. The
buttermaker should have authority to
choose his own assistant, as cheap
thick-headed man at the weigh can is
not the one to judge of the fitness of
milk. N. Miller in New England

strict feed when the COW begins to
fatten and the milk to dry off. Prob
ably, even then, some succulent feed,
in place of part of the grain the cow
receives, will check the tendency to
fatten and hold the COW to her milk
longer than she otherwise would. The
trouble with COWS thin in flesh is that
their milk will have always less of
butter fats than that from cows which
are in good condition, but not fat at
farrowing time. An old farmer once
said that a year when hay was plenty
and cheap, and corn or other grains
were scarce, was always followed by
high prices for butter the next season.
Too many farmers rely wholly on
coarse feed for their cows during the
winter months. Some grain in addi-
ton would be much better. So that
the COW is not made too fat to have
her calf come safely and without
caked udder, for herself the more fat
is put into her, the more she will put
into the milk pail next summer

What to do next?" is the problem
which is already agitating the Salt
Lake Opera company. Professor Weihe
states that their preference lay in the
direction of "A Trip to Africa" but
they found that the libretto and parts
could not be secured for less than SIPS,
which, with the elaborate costuming
necessary, rendered it out of the ques
ton. THE Geisha' was thought of, but

great deal of the first bloom worn off

are now discussing THE Queens Lace
