Has a Plan.

Attorney General W. B. Douglas

Removed the Indians.

Sheriff Claggett went to, Mile Laos
lake this week and removed band of
Indians from the property of Pete
Kennedy, where they had settled and
refused to move: The Indians were
;inclined to be ugly but finally gave in
and moved their effects. with the as
sistance of the officers. They settled
again short DISTANCE away on the

claim this place also and will probably
refuse to vacate. It is said one of the
deputies narrowly escaped a thrust
from knife id the hands of an infuri-
ated squaw. "

The Delight of Living.

Prove that my mind dies wher my body dies,
That I 90 not possess an immortal soul
Save in desire; prove that the utmost goal
For kings or beggars is the grave; and, lies

The future lie and the divine control;
Spare not one kind delusion to console.
For falling senses and fast-dimming eyes
Nav even. like old Crusoe bid me spend
Nv little hour at the worlds farthest end,
Mute as my fellow-brutes in that sad place
And then twere sweet to live, so weak thing,
To breathe if nothing more, the fire of spring,
Or feel the winter beat against my face.

Kept patient watch alone.

But all the east was pink,
As il bed of roses bioomed
On mornings misty brink.
The sapphire field of night above
Took on a paler hue
Perhaps the tread of angel feet
Had worn away the blue;
And through the fleecy clouds appeared
A broad and brilliant ray,
A golden herald bringing light,
The dawn of Easter day!
