which mad been brewing with that
tribe for several months past had
broken out and that more than 100
Cheyennes were on the warpath.
Several ranchmen living in the vi

been killed, and the Indians are burn
ing every ranch they car reach.
he Indian police have been
strengthened at the agency and every
precaution is being taken. Major
Clifford is the agent in charge, and
says the present outbreak is caused
by fancied neglect on the part of the
Government of Indian wants. The
Indians say they are only half fed.
They have been dissatisfied for some
time and it was said have been kept
on the reservation by force of arms.

The commissioners were enga ged all
that morning in comforting with the
Chief Justice, William L. Chambers.
Nothing was disclosed regarding the
deliberations, but it is reported that
they will uphold the action of Admiral
Kautz the American naval COM
mander.
Mataafa sent the commissioners a
letter of welcome and expressed the
hope that they would satisfactorily end
the troubles in Samoa. 1t is under
stood that Mataafa will obey the
unanimous order of the commission.
though it is doubtful whether he will
order his followers to disarm unless the
Malietoans are first disarmed. The Ma
taafans will disperse to their homes if

less there will be further trouble in the
future if the Kingship is maintained.
Only one or two cases are known Of
the wounding of natives by the shell
fire of the warships, and as the natives
have not realized the strength of the
Europeans, they may go to greater ex-
tremeS if war arises again.
The rebels remain outside the lines
indicated by the Admiral and have
strongly fortified a new position, while
the loyalists are being drilled and have
fortified Mulinuu. A considerable
number of loyalists have been brought

THE NEZ PERCES
THREATEN TROUBLE

LEWISTON. Ida. May 25.-Althoueh
the NeZ Perces Indians have not heen
in a state of revolt since Chief Joseph
led them on the warpath in 1877. it is
feared they are about to go out again
The old difficulty of the Government
taking their land is the cause About
200 Indians about the Lapwai Agency
where the Northern Pacific Railway is
building a branch line, have been in
council for the last three days and the
sessions have been most exciting. No
white man has been permitted to visit
the councils, but outside the Indians
are talking in denunciatory way of ali
whites and making threats to repeat
the scenes of 1877, when seventeen
whites were massacred almost on the
spot where the present councils are
being held.
Formerly there were ten thousand
square miles in the reservation of the
Nez Perces. BY a treaty made with
several of the chiefs, the Government
took away nine-tenths of this and
brought on the war of 1877, Joseph and
other members of the tribe refusing to
sanction the acts of the treaty making
chiefs. Since then the Nez Percss
have been peaceable and have risen to
a high state of civilization In 1896
the Government threw their reserva-
tion open to settlement, requiring them
to give up 542,O74 acres out of a total of
746,651, all that was allowed them be-
ing their allotments in severalty. They
were paid small price for the land
taken.
Now comes the Northern Pacific
Railway with desire to build a line
siXty-five miles up Lapwai Creek
Without securing any rights from the
Indians, the company secured per-
mission from the Government to build
across the farms of Indian owners, tax
ing such land as it wanted. On the
completion of the work a commission
er will be sent from Washington to as
sess damages and what he assesses is
all that will be secured.
The company has filed two hundred
thousand dollar bond and is going
ahead, cutting down orchards and des-
ecrating graves, hence the wrath of
the Indians.

THE CUBANS

Leaders of the Opposition
Gain a Victory Over
General Gomez.
IT MAY LEAD TO WAR
Old Liberator Thinks He Has Been
Shamefully Treated by the
People He Helped.

Whether their purpose be only to
render re6uke to General Gomez,
thereby gaining political advantage
in the possible Cuban republic of
the future, or Whether they
are designedy seeking to break
the Americans, the attitude of the
Cuban leaders opposed to the old
general in advising the soldiers to
keep their arms is calculated greatly
to em5orrass the administration at
Washington, and may lead to the
gravest consequences in the future.
With var on our hands in the east,

Introduced to Ruskin.

Mr.. Ruskin was taking a morning
walk not long ago near Brentwood,
when he saw a woman seated on a
campstool making a sketch of the
house. and with a courteous grace
which is intensely his own he ad-
dressed her, inquiring her reason for
choosing the house in question for her
subject. 1T is the house of the IA
nous John Ruskin," she frankly an
swered. Have you met Ruskin ?" she
was asked. mo, indeed" she replied.
II had would have deemed it one of
the greatest privileges of my life"
Then, madam, If you care to follow
me I will show him t. you" In a
twinkling the stool and easel were
packed up. and the artist eagerly fol-
lowed the guide. To her surprise and
qualification. he led her up to the house
and. entering, bade his guest to follow,
which she readily did. On marched
the stranger into the drawing-room;
then, placing his back to the fireplace,

Honolulu Belle Is Without Guile.
People rave for hours over the Ian
gushing Spanish girls, but like the
native song sing, Give me the Homo

though nearly concealed meath the
flowing gowns, can be family discerned
through the clinging folds, and whose
thoughts and passions can be read in
the shy chances from their telltale eyes.
They are rather dark, we'll developed,
even at an early age, with even fea-
lures and large, expressive eyes. coal
black hair, intensely white teeth and
walk leisurely, for this is a tropical
climate. One can not help admiring
these pleasant, soft-speaking women.
The beautiful flower wreaths worn as
hat decorations also tend, apart from
their natural attractiveness, to set off
the languishing beauty of these ma
tives. A language that contains but
twelve letters in its alphabet, one word
meaning several things, tends to inno-
cence of mind and habits. The scan
dals and intrigues, without which the
Spanish would perish, are unknown to
the Honolulu belle. and in her straight
forward and candid glance you can
note the elevation of her mind and the
purity of her thoughts. They love
madly. too. as many tales bear out.
