INDIANS RESTLESS.
Precautions Taken to Prevent Out
breaks in Arizona and Nebraska.

DENVER, May 16.-From the tenor
of communications received by Colonel
Sumner during the past few days, it
appears that the Indians in the De-
partments of the Colorado and the Mis-
souri,, which are under his command,
are displaying an unusual restlessness,
which BODIES no good for the settlers
in the vicinity of the various reserva-
tions.
The danger of an outbreak in Ari-
zona has become so imminent that Col
onel Sumner has ordered two troops
of cavalry from Fort Huachau to the
Mexican boundary line, with orders to
move along that line from Nogales,
Arizona, to the Gulf of California, OBJ
serving a strict patrol of the entire bor
der. Another troop has been ordered
from Fort Grant to Fort Huachuca to
garrison the latter fort while the troops
are in the field, and to be prepared to
assist these troops in case of trouble.
One troop of the Eighth Cavalry was
recently ordered from Fort Meade, S.
D., to Fort Washakie, Wyo., and there
is a possibility that this force will be
sidetracked and sent to Fort Neo-
brara, Neb., instead.
Colonel Sumner to-day received a pc
tition for troops from a large number
of settlers in the portion of Nebraska
adjoining the Sioux reservation, who
believe the Sioux are planning a whole
sale massacre of whites.

The Fin De Steele Comb,

The great success of London and
Paris, is winning for itself many
friends here. By its means any
woman can dress her hair in a va
riety OF styles without the use OF
hairpins. 1t possesses the merits
that made hairpins necessary with
out their faults. 1t fastens the hair
securely, yet leaves it loose and
fluffy, thus avoiding headaches
and falling out OF the hair. 1t has
many other merits, which are
readily understood when the oper-
alton of doing up the hair by
means of this comb is witnessed.
Experts are demonstrating its adj
vantages in our store and show

TORONTO (Ont), May 16.-The

Senor Polo Bernabe in Canada, says:
With Canada's limited diplomatic
experience, there is a feeling of hesi-
tation about pronouncing a positive
opinion as to the propriety of the con-
tinued stay of the minister in Ca
nada. But some light may be thrown
on the question by asking what would
have been thought in Spain and
throughout Europe if the American
Minister to Spain, after receiving his
passports, had remained in Portugal,
instead of coming home. The proceed
ing would have been regarded as very
unusual, and would have occasioned a
good deal of comment and inquiry, and
probably a demand for explanations
What are the eX- Minister and his staff
doing here? is a very natural question
to ask, and they can hardly complain
if the commonly accepted view is that
they must be here for the purpose of
obtaining information that may be of
