RESERVATION NEWS.

Springtime has come gentle Annie, al
so waterfowl and song birds.
Blackleg has appeared, and a number
OF stockmen report losses.
Who ever saw the mountains so bare OF
snow at this time of the year, as at pres
emit? Has old earth taken another tilt?
l. c. Hofius formerly at Blackfoot, but
latterly Forest Ranger at Bolton, advises
us that he expects to be sent to the Swift
Current country, o Agood man like
Lew Is needed up there, to see that none
of the water from that country flows any
where else except into the "Widdie's" do
main.
We are in receipt of a letter from some
one at Browning, evidently a female, by
the writing, asking US to look out for a
white horse with a stripe in it's face, and
three white hind feet, answering to the
name OF SNOWFALL. If the writer had
only signed her name, ye scribe would
have been out securing the range ere this,
in quest of the animal, but fearing to be
found with a horse having three hind legs

Their advices, before making a round up
Speaking of roundu ps, we rise to state
that there has been about nine every day
of the past week. A contingent from
some camp would go down towards the
eastern boundary of the walton, and
after gathering every thing IN sight
would fog the bunch to the n~eighborhood
where they lived, in hopes that an un-
branded colt could be found. This has
been repeate | day after day by different
outfits until the horses running at large
are about worn out.
A Y has been constructed at Blackfoot
to facilitate the turning of engines while
repairs are being made at the round
house.
A foot passenger on his way to the
Swift Current mines, seeing one les
of the Y, asked if 1T was the new road t.
the diggings, and being assured that i
was, started northward on it, but coming
to the end, he turned in scorn, saying
"You fellers tink / vas a tam geese amt it,!
Il is announced that a young and higl
spirited gentleman living on Cut Bank
will lead the daughter of a n~eighbor as
bride to the altar, shortly after the da,
of Lent are numbered and that his nu
merous friends will give him a fitting
sen | OFF on the occasion.

\ prosperity and contentnent, and few
communities of this size can bosst of
such perfect order as has prevailed dur
ing the past year. His attitude on the
school question has met the approval of
the department, and in the course of the
next year, this reservation will be ahead
of all others, as regards the number and
efficiency OF it s schools, due, to his o
mendations. The new school buildings
with the exception of the half dozen mi
nor institutions to be erected in the most
thickly settled communities will be built,
in a well protected bottom on Cut Bank,
in the midst of a beautiful grove O trees
The location of this industrial and in
%tellectual plant will be about seven miles
north of Blackfoot, and viii have all the
advantages Of shelter. good drainage, and
excellent water, 1t will be thoroughly
equipped with modern improvements,
such as steam heat, and probably electric
lights, as we'll as imported school marms.
1t has been decided by the Great North
ern, to make a fill where Willow Greek
spans the gorge which will neCessitate an
embankment 300 feet long and 40 feet
high. This WORK has beeh cross-section-
ed by the engineers. and it is expected
that work will be commenced on the job
very soon
Much speculation IS rife as to where
the proposed St. Mary's branch will start.
Shelby, Baltic, Carlow and Blackfoot
have all been spoken of as being favora-
BILE points, but the scarcity of suitable
water for steaming purposes, is a serious
drawback to most of them. BlackfooI,
the present division p int, will undoubt
edly be at the junction wherever that is,
even if a new plant has to be built.
That burg is putting on metropolitan
airs now adays. The houses have all been
numbered, with the exception Of the Ho-
tel Somes. The artist who did the em-
bellishing, was rather leary of APP
preaching that hostelry, fearing that Sam
would tuEn4his bears loose and yell, 'TSic
i'm Grizzlies.
The all at Bro vning hall on the n ight
ofthe 10Th, was a pleasant affair, and the
crowd danced until st. Patricks~day in
the morn ing.
This, with the entertainment given by
the Somers family, i IS the sum total Of a.
m~usements SO far during Lent, at the
Agency.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. E. Allison recently
gave q birth day party, in honor of Mas
ter Willie their sons birthday. There is
always a houseful at such gatherings, and
this was no exception to the rule.
An elegant supper was served at the
usual hour, after which dancing was re-
sumed, and continued until morning.
A boarding house for Jim HIPS i'm
ported Japs, is TO be built at Carlow, this
spring. These alien contract laborers
will be dumped OFF at that point, to live
in filth and squalor, and c~ontaminate the
surrounding country with Asiatic dis
eases, and we predict an epidemic of bu-
bonic plague, small pox and seven year
itch, as a direct result. Let the people
rise in their might, and cast the Mongo-
lians out.

Mr.. Hatch is also young man and is a

may be said in conclusion. that conserva-

THE former figure can be relied on for

Golconda Tales Are Tame.
In conversation with a representative of
The Evening Star yesterday Mr.. Hatch
described the conditions in and around
Cape Nome in such way as to make the
well-remembered tales Of Golconda seem
tame by comparison.
THE existence of gold in the Cape Nome
country. which is in northern Alaska, close
to the Siberian line, entirely in United
States territory, and not like the Klondike
in British boundaries, was discovered by q
