A minister was called to preach at
a little chapel in very remote coun-

considerable distance from his home
1t was absolutely necessary that he
should stay somewhere in the neigh

who, with his family, attended the
chapel, volunteered to entertain the
preacher, and SO, at the close of the
service. the latter repaired to the
homestead. An early supper was
served, and the household, as well as
the guest, retired to rest.

Pocatello, Idaho, June I7.-Exactly at ! ?
O'Clock today 1900 men, women and boys
OF all ages, rushed across the ccdcd Fort
Hall reservation and disappeared in cloud
OF dust in their mad rush for homestead
and mineral lands.
Most OF them mounted on horses and
ponies, the majority of them heavily
armed, the riders at the first scream OF the
whistle OF the Oregon Short Line shops,

rived. put spurs to their animals and FIVE
minutes after the start were strung out in
long madly rushing line toward the land
they desired.
All morning the whole town had been
surrounded by the people awaiting the
opening signal but the larger proportion
gathered on the hog back mile southeast
OF the city and from this point the great
rush took place.
Before o'clock Pocatelo was practi-
cally deserted.
Probably 1000 people remained behind
the first rush and departed later with pack
animals for the farther lands. Many signs
of trouble we're apparent before the starting
signal was given. In scores of instances,
it was known that three, four and even
more men intended 10 locate on the same
piece of land, and wherever possible these
watched each other and kept close together
until the signal sent them off.
The conflicts if any will occur when the
rush is made for the Backfoot land office
to register the entries.
