The delivery wagon used by Chas.
Lehman & Co. certainly has a very pre-
carious and doubtful existence. Twice
during the last week and times innum-
cradle during the spring has the old
wagon been the main object Of solicit
tude in a swift dash for liberty made
by the sorrel delivery team used at the
Lehman store. Its latest escapade &C.
Cured on Monday, when the team, hav-
ing been left standing in the sun for a
few minutes. decided that it was a trihe
too hot for comfort and started up the
hill with the evident intention of TAX
ing a cool rest in the basement of the
court house. Luckily, W. Deaton was
on hand with his saddle horse and over
took them at the top of the hill, the
only damage done being the wearing
out of Deaton's quirt and the loss of
considerable wind by ''old Blaze" the
pace being considerably too fast for him.
Game Warden Scott has issued in
structions TO his deputies to enforce the
law in the case of all Indians caught
hunting off the reservations out of sea
son tits thought that the game warden
has no jurisdiction on the killing of
game on the reservations and Lo has
taken advantage of this fact to make
flying trips off the reservations in
search of game, frequently killing large
quantities. with which they hurry back
to the shelter provided by Uncle sam.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Scott to put a
stop TO the wholesale killing of game
by the Indians, if possible, and he has
asked for the cooperation of the de-
partment of the interior in the matter.
The country adjacent to the head of
sun river isespecially subjected to these
periodical raids by Indians in search of
meat. which is loaded on pack horses
and taken back by mountain trails to
the reservations. The Blackfoot reserve
on one side and the Flathead on the
other make it a district especially
adapted to these invasions.
