Wife to Death.
Deer Lodge, Dec. 26.-John Perkins,
a rancher, about so years old, was
brought here Saturday by Sheriff
Barnden and Otto ~Schoenfeld, agent
for the Society of the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Children, and placed in Jail
with the charge of kicking his wife,
thus causing her death and the death
OF her unborn child. Perkins lives
or his ranch Is miles from Deer
Lodge. He has been married
twice. 1t is his second wife ne is
charged with killing. He has children
by both wives. The crime is alleged
to have taken place early in Septem.
Der. The woman was in a delicate con-
dition at the time. It is alleged that
Perkins knocked her down and then
kicked her until she gave premature
birth to a child She died, it is claim
ed, from the effects. Agent Schoen-
ftld heard of the affair and investi-
gated. He was satisfied that it was a
criminal case and enlisted the SER
vices of the county attorney and the
sheriff. Sheriff Garnden and Agent
Schonfeld took the matter up and pur-
sued it to a finish, the result being the
arrest of Mr.. Perkins.

Rosebud, Dec. 27.-Reliable infor-
nation comes here through an EN-
ploye Of the United States Indian de-
partment stationed at Tongue river
agency Lame Deer, that the northern
Cheyennes are in a starving condition.
Commissioner of Indian Affairs Jones,
Oil the advice of United States Indian
Agent ]. c. Clifford, ordered that no
food be issued to the Indians, except
the very young, the aged and infirm,
basing his advice on the theory that
they were self-sustaining. The north.
ern C%heyennes are willing workers,
but as the government has failed to
give them work, and as the white set
tiers can only give them work in hay
ing time, it is apparent how they can
be in their present sad condition.
complaints are coming in that they
are raiding the herds of cattle in the

is feared unless active %feasures are
taken to remedy their condition. G.
F. Nissler, United States Indian in

OF RECLAMATION SERVICE.
Progress Has Been Made in the Geo.
logical Survey.


Washington, April 1S.-The difficulty of
beginnings is embodied in the sayings of
many nations. Had all the first tentative
plans for the redemption of the Great
American desert been perfect, 1t would
have been the first case on record Of a
public policy born full-grown, like the
Goddess of Wisdom from the brow of the
Omnpotent. On the contrary, careful
reconnaissance work has shown the Off
cials of the United States Geographical
Survey, to whom the direction of the re-
clamation work has been entrusted. that
of The great irrigation projects first pro-
posed some are good some are doubt
less impracticable. and others have
enough bad points TO balance the good
ones. Meanwhile patient study of the
engineering difficulties connected with
these irrigation problems has continued,
and the result is that new projects of
great merit have developed in unexpect-
ed quarters. These are now under care
full consideration.
The irrigation projects favorably re-
ported at the beginning of 1903 included
those on the Truckee river in Nevada,
on the Salt river in Arizona, on Milk
river in Montana, on Sweetwater river in
Wyoming, and on Gunnison river in Col
oroda. The Colorado and Nevada pro-
jects have been found feasible and con-
struction on the engineering works along
the Truckee and Salt rivers have prog
ressed to reasonable extent. The Mon
tant project has, however presented un-
expected engineering dificultis as we'll as
complications regarding water rights, SO
that progress is slow. 1t has been found
necessary to modify the first plans in
order to achieve early results. The Wy
oming project as first outlined has been
found impracticable. better reservoir
site that that nthe Sweetwater river,
has. however been discovered on the
North Platte, so that a larger scheme Of
development may be worked out there
in the future. Very great engineering
difficulties are encountered in the accom-
plishment of the Colorado project. The
of arid land thereby reclaimable
is less. too. than was anticipated.
In view of the possibility of human err
ror, and the Importance of works des
tined to last for centuries, the officials
of the survey feel that it is necessary
to proceed with great caution and con-
Any large irrigation work
may require years of patient toll. even
after the contracts are let Only a certain
