THAT INDIAN WAR CLAIM MONEY.
Mr.. Brown has his own views about
the disposition of the Indian war

expressed himself rs follows:
"In the first place every claim
against that fund must he paid by the
state first. This money does not all
belong to the state, if look at the
matter in the right light, There are
10 he claims against this fund which
are legal and just claims. In this
case the state is only holding that
part of this amount rs trust fund to
meet these honest obligations, which
the national government assumed
through the state. To pay these
claims will be the first duty Of the

Possessed of a charming personality,
a voice that would melt a stone and a
pair of eyes that would almost cause
the Sphynx to fall before her, wher-
ever Mrs. Moffatt went she became a
target for amazing love epistles from
men who heard her, and such was the
adulation showered upon her that the
head of a stronger woman might have
been affected.
Mrs. Moffatt was originally a variety
theater singer. but was drawn Out of
that line by Mr.. Crittenton, the found

ORIGINAL FISH STORY MAN.
Pool and Swung Them Into Another
to Be Cooked.

First Man Who Caught Fish in One
Pool and Swung Them Into Another
to Be Cooked.
Pioneer Press: Capt. Henry Mar
cote. who was in command of n OF
| the six companies sent out in 1871 to
guard the engineers who were trying
to find a way to the Pacific ocean for
the Northern Pacific, and the man who
first told the story about standing on
the banks of a pool in the Yellowstone,
catching a trout and without taking II
off the line dropping it into another
pool and boiling it for dinner. was in
ST. Paul last week on the way home to
Florida after a trip to San Francisco
and up the Pacific coast. He has Just
completed his first journey over the
scenes of his adventures in 1871 and
1872 since the explorations of those
years.
The fish story has become one of
the undying tales of the west. 1t has
been printed in almost every news
paper under the sun. and very tender
foot who enters the Yellowstone re
ceives it along with his meal tickets and
instructions to leave his shooting tools
behind.
Its a true story" said Capt. Mar
cote. beginning his tale with the
~stereotyped phrase, land it originated
in this way. We crossed the Yellow
stone river on our way to Bozeman
and founded the Yellowstone army
post. Our party was the first that had
seen the river since Lewis and Clarke
discovered it in 1904.
