 MY DEAR IoLoNEL--Y Your telegram of the 2 i'd ulJ., was only received last nigh6 on my return from Chihua hua The details of our Indian troubles are as follows:
 The Williams ranch, you know where it is located, was rented this year by two of our colonists, Martin Harris and Thoma. Allen. These men with their families have been at the ranch all summer and had raised good crop of corn and potatoes. They had cut the corn aud shucked it up in the field out had not yet husked the corn, They had ilsD dug part of the potatoes which were piled in the field ready to b. brought to the house and put away.
 "On Sunday morning, November II, when they went out in the field they discovered that the corn from twelve shocks, probably eight or ten hun dred pounds, had been husked and carried away during the previous night and also that quantity of pitatoes had been taken. Further investiga. tion proved that some manta which had been h nging near the house. a blanket and some other things had been taken. They exam ned the ground an1 found pony aud Indiau tracks. that is to say they c, Uld noi tell they were Indians, some were bare-fOOted aud some wore m ,c;isins
 They took their guns, Allen armed with double barre.ed shot gun and Harris with rifle, and took up their trail which they followed till about four o'clock in the afternoon when they suddenly came In sight of the Indians in camp.

STUDENTS LAST RESORT.
Irish Wit Comes to the Rescue of Ex-
tensive Ignorance.


A witty Irish student appeared be-
fore an examining board to undergo
an examination in medical jurispru-
dence. The subject of examination
was poisons, and the examiner had Sc
lected that deadly poison, prussic acid,
as the subject Of his questions.
"Pray, sir" said he to the candi-
date, ''whatis a poisonous dose prus-
sic acidP"
After cogitating for a moment the
student replied, with promptitude:
'Half an ounce, sirl'
Horrifed at the extreme ignorance
Of the candidate, the examiner ex-
claimed. "Half an ounce? Why, sir,

amount which would poison a COM

'Td ride home for stomach

"Are you aware, sir" retorted the
examiner, chat prussic acid is poi
