\ thousand American cigar
makers in Tampa, Fla. find them
selves out of employment because
of a strike OF Cubans in the trade
against American workmen. 1t
is reported that the trouble is assu-
ming serious phase and that a
clash may occur at any time. The
picturesque details are lacking. but
it would be interesting to know,
for instance. if the enlightened
Cuban workmen find it impossible
to compete with pauper American
labor, able to live on rice and de-
handing few comforts in life.
With Agulnaldo in Luzon offering
amnesty and silver to the distur
bing Americans who will lay down
their arms and be peaceable, and
the Cubans in Tampa declaring
that the American must 60, it
begius to look as if the "silent,

sheep. Looking northwest and north
Single Shot. Flat top, and the ST. Mary
river. Then M the lower lake with
it's island, and in the distance you see
the hills of Canada.
Two or three days after the opening
of the strip, the Norris Flat looked like
a huge checker board; 10 foot holes were
every where, and it was actuallw unsafe
for one to cross this flat after dark.
There were about 100 men in camp,
cabins were being built, a store opened
up, 2 or 3 saloons were doing a rushing
business, and the place was rldual y
taking on the airs of a regular mining
camp. All were in favor Of law and
order, and a mass meeting was called
and all signed petitions to be presented
to the County fathers, praying for the
appointing of peace officers. Then they
drew up a set of miners rules and reg
ulationS. There wasn't a drunken man
in the crowd, and there we're 2 saloons
next door. 1t was the most o rderly and
business like meeting it has been the ex
perience Of the writer to witness in many
a day. And this when there was no re-
strainiug influence within 125 miles,
which is about the distance from the
county seat. During all this time, the
Fiat was in dispute. Just three days
before the opening Mrs. Norris in be-
half of herself and children filed upon
this land under the al otment act, she
being a full blood Piegan. No one would
believe that she could hold it, not even
the man who drew up the allotment
papers, for he was the first man to drive
a stake in the Flat, but she held it all
the same. AS a result of all this, Norris
had about 800 acres Of good hay land
ruined, and has a 10 foot hole on every
twenty of it.

In addition to Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Hor-
ton, whose lives were taken near Haines
mission by twelve Chilcat Indians, four
others persons are believed to have been
murdered by the same band of blood
thirsty savages. Last September four
miners known only by the names of
Anderson SAM" ''Cleave'' and
Jack" camped at the mouth Of the
Chilkoot, which empties into Lynn canal,
and the following day started up the
river on a prospecting tour. Their move
ments were observed by the Indians, one
of whom went to Jerome" head man
among the Chilcats, with the request
for him to write a note to be handed to
the whites telling them to come back
and avoid trouble you are going into
the Indian hunting grounds"
jerome, the account says, wrote the
note. but few days later the Indians
returned, little concerned, apparently.
with the announcement that they could
not find the whites.
Since then nothing has been seen or
heard Of the prospectors, whom the peo-
pie about Haines mission now believe
were murdered by the Indians
The men are supposed to have been
grubstaked and sent into the country
by Juneau saloon man. They are de-
scribed by those who last saw them
