rising at Leech Lake.

Tay-GOnce appeared at the Leech Lake
agency recently and announced that he
was the Messiah. He said that all of
his descendants, Indians and white
men, who lived in houses were soon to
be destroyed by a big cyclone, but all
Indians VINO lived in tepees would be
saved.
The man secured the confidence of
many of the Indians, who had such
faith in him that abRut 200 left the
agency and went into camp on Squaw
Point The matter gradually grew so
serious that Captain Mercer, the In
dian agent, sent out and had Gway-
Tay- GOnce arrested.
The OthC~ Indians remain on Squaw
Point and are becoming ugly. They
make many threats and as there are no
troops at the agency, trouble is feared.

the case is one of the most remarH-
