Irrigation Destroying Fish,

Irrigation is destroying many fish in
the rivers of Nebraska. Some time ago
q dam was put in Shell creek, near
Schuyler The entire flow of water was
cut off and ,subverted to the adjoining
field, leaving the creek below to run
dry. No water was left below the
dam but small pools, and thousands
of fish were killed on this account.
People went into the small pools and
threw out ten and fifteen pound fish
of all kinds with pitchforks. The fin
est kind of cat, bass, ETC.. were Sc
cured.

rooster" but frequently is called a
"piebiter," and perhaps is known even
more widely as ring tailed snorter.'
All these are terms of reproach al
drssed to the rookie" or military re-
cruit, in the United States.

 Two young men rode to our store one Saturday ev, ming to look around. These same two young men saw what they considered the pr5 ttiest and strongest wheel they ever saw. Mind you, they were not out shopping; th5y were ac- quainted with Jav ins and they just wanted to make a call. Our salesman invited them to try the new wheel.

together feasting and smoking the pipe
of peace, the festivities lasting for several
days. The result was that the Kiovas
and Conanches promised the other two
tribes that whenever the lands OF the
former were opened for settlement aned
the Indians received their allotments that
all Cheyenne and Arapahoe children under
years Of age, should receive an allot-
ment Of land the same as the children
Of the Kiowas and Conanches. Since the
Cheyenne and Arapahoe countries were
opened many children haye been born to
the two tribes and they desire very much
that the government give each of them a
leo acre farm, hence the contract with
the Kiowas and Comanehes. The tepees
of the Cheyennes and Arapahoes have
steadily increased in population, the prog
enitors believing that the Kiowas and
Comanches would keep their word. Re
Gently, however, the former have begun
to fear that the LATHE viii play them
false, and they, therefore, despatched
Chiefs washee and knight to have Gov
ernor Barnes intercede in their behalf
and make the Kiowas and Comanches
keep their promises.
Governor Barnes, after hearing Chief
w dSkiGt IepOII, luduhGu the LNO lNlSll-
ors for the honor offered, but explained to
them that he canot accept, as the mat
ter is out of his jurisdiction. He referred
them TO the Indian agents of the Kiowas
and Comanehes as the proper authorit
les. At their request, also, the governor
dictated a letter TO the agents. explain
ing the mission of the chiefs and stating
that it Will be a nice thing for them If
their plans can be carried through The
two thanked the governor very profusely
and departed to seek the Indian agents.
This was Chief Washee's third call on
Governor Barnes within the past three
years. His first followed Immediately
after the governors inaugural The chief,
accompanied by nine other Cheyennes,
called at the executive office early one
morning and not finding the executive in,
they went to his home AID camped in his
front yard to await his appearance.
When Governor Barnes came out he was
surprised TO see ten Indian chieftains
lined up to on his front porch, contented-
" smoking ard taking in the sights. They
explained their call was solely Of social
nature on the new governor, and Mr..
Barnes had the pleasure of their COM
pany for three days as his guests at one
Of the hotels.
Chief Washee headed another delegation
Of the various tribes TO the governors Of
fee last winter during the session of the
legislature, forbidding the Indian medi-
cine man from practicing.. At that time
Chief Washes strongest argument was
that the Indian medicine men Kill no
more than the white doctors. This state
ment was naturally difficult TO deny but
the bill went into effect.
Chief Knight, while in the city recently,
called on Attorney General J. c. Strang
and desired to retain him in securing a
divorce from his wife, whom the chief
charges with adultry. The chiefs made
the rounds of the territorial offices, re-
newing old acquaintances and making
many new ones.
