Money From Old Claims

The Neg Perez Indians are soon TO re.
ceive about 10000 for old claims that
have been pending before the department
for many years. James Stuart, a well
known Neg Perez Indian, has just re-
turned from Washington where he has
been for the past two months checking
over the old records for data to present
the Indian department to substantiate the
claims of his people. Some of these
claims are due from the treaty of 1855.
Upon the showing made the department
officials were convinced Of the business of
the claims and will recommend to the
next claims be paid. The amount in
principal due the Nez Perces is-.$I7 $40,
but the interest amounts to nearly as
much and the total will be over $3c, COO.
Mr. Stuart is wen pleased with the sue
CT IS of his mission. He spent two
months in the department at Wash
ington and had the satisfaction
of knowing the correctness of his
work from the fact that the department
officials checked il over and corroberated
his statements. The money will be
divided among the members of the tribe
prorata. The present membership of the
Nez Perez tribe is $500.

Corn Wheat a New Cereal.

fifth are preparing 100 acre tract on the
Julia Moore farm, northeast of town,
which will be planted to corn wheat, un-
der contract with NJ. ]. Shields & Co.,
seed merchants, who have orders for a
large quantity Of seed from farming com
munities east ofthe Rocky mountains.
Although considerable quantities of
this grain have been raised in the Mos
COW section, it has never been under
taken commercially before. Small tracts
of the corn wheat have yielded as much
as 10 bushels to the acre here, and it is
confidently predicted that at least As
bushels an acre can be raised during any
average crop year. little OF the grain
that was raised last year was used as a
stock and hog feed, and, it is claimed,
proved to be as good as corn and more
fattening than any of the other grains.

ians out OF his kingdom. Then be vel
coined the diplomats Of European ma
lions, playing one against another.
Now he Is to have mint, says the
New York World. What an advance
this means may be realized from the
fact that Abyssinia until recently has
been getting along with cubes Of rock
salt for cash. A small amount of coin
minted in France has of late been In
circulation. Now the king will make
his own. Consul Masterson of Alden
reports that he has saved up 110,230
pounds Of gold for the purpose.
There are 400 tons Of mint maehin-
cry. 1t was sold by Stettin concern
and was landed at DJibOuti, East At
RIGA, with a competent mechanic to set
1t up. The machinery will be transport

The CUP Defender.

Our gallant yacht Reliance
Has nobly borne the test;
or all the Yankee racers
She's speediest and best.
In breezes strong and tickle,
In smooth and choppy seas,
She met her friendly rivals
And vanquished them with ease.
She met the old Columbia,
The yacht with twice won fame,
But that once stanch defender
Was never In the game.
The speedy Constitution
Was also left behind
In rushing and in drifting
On seas of every kind.
And now the swift Reliance
Is chosen to defend
The trophy that bold Upton
From us desires to rend.
Against the latest Shamrock

And both, as we're believing,

About the Upton boat;
We know Sir Tom regards her
The fastest yacht af1oaf.

OF Yanks go soaring up,
And all are sure that Shamrock

The time IL fast approaching
For test OF every claim,
And soon the rival racers

Our hopes OF triumph pin.
