Planets with Tbree Suns

The people inhabiting the planets in
the solar system of Gamma have no
need of electricity, gas, oil or other
kind of artificial light In those ia
vOred worlds they have continuous
daylight and probably have no idea of
land like ours which is alternately
bathed in sunlight and plunged into
darkness. The Gammanean planets
are so situated that as soon as one
of their three suns begins to decline
another appears in sight Each of
these three suns is of a different color
red, yellow and blue

sands Killed In japan.
The last great earthquake in the
United States was that of Charleston.
S. c., in 1856 says the New York
Tribune This earthquake was preced-
Ell by minor tremors, to which little
attention was paid. The principal
shock occupied about one minute. and
other shocks followed at intervals with
gradually diminishing violence. At the
end of four weeks they had ceased to
be destructive, but tremors were oc,
casionally observed for several months
longer.
In Charleston the movements were
less violent than at the center of the
disturbances, Il point fifteen miles west
of the city. A large number of houses
in the city were thrown down. and
nearly all the buildings in the city
were more or less damaged. The dam
age was computed at 100000 Twen.

This statement of the magnetic eff

was made at the coast and geodetic
survey:
The san Francisco earthquake be

specially designed earthquake instru-
mentS, called Seismo@raphs, likewise
affected the self recording magnetic in
strumcnts at the three magnetic OBJ
ServatorieS of the coast and geodetic
survey thus far heard from.
AZ the magnetic observatory at
Chcltcnham, Md, this disturbance be-
gan about half past s Il. m, eastern
time, on April Is, and continued for
about half an hour. 1t will be noticed
in the table giving the time as recorded
by the sciSmOgraph that this disturb
ance began some time later than the
preliminary trcmurS. coinciding with
the principal portion of the disturb
auce as recorded On the seismograph.
1T affected chiefly the horizontal and
vertical componcnts of the earth's mag
netic intensity, the greatest disturb
ancc amounting to one one-thousandth
part of the horizontal intensity and
about one -thouSaudth part of the
vertical intensity. 1t was not of the
same character as that due to cosmic
magnetic storm or as that recorded in
connection with the Mont Pelee erup-
ton. but appears to he chiefly if not
entirely mechanical.
AT Baldwin. Kan, where there is no
seiSmograph, the magnetic instruments
also recorded a similar disturbance,
lasting from twenty-five minutes after
s 10 half past s. eastern time some
time after the preliminary tremors Of
the earthquake reached Chcltcnham.
AT the Stka observatory this dis
turbance was also recorded by the
magnetic Instruments from twenty
four minutes past to thirty minutes
past s. eastern time, somewhat later
than The preliminary tremors recorded
on the seismograph at this observatory.
1T is to be noticed that in each Of
these three cases the magnetic dis
turbancc occurs at about the same
time that the greatest motion is being
recorded on the seismograph.

and incapacity OF their commander,

tirely out of hand and had been hold
ing great meetings at which they dis

DIPLOMACY ALONE NECESSARY
TO INDUCE uTEs TO RETURN
TO RESERVATION.
TELL SETTLERS THEY MEAN no HARM
SAY THEY WOULD STARvE IF
COMPELLED TO REMAIN At
THEIR OLD HOME.

Gillette, Wyo., Oct 30.-Three hun
dred and fifty Utes, whom United
States troops have been sent to inter-
cept, are still camped on Powder
river, north of here. but are making
preparations to move northwest to join
the Northern Cheyennes on the Grow
reservation. The Indians have already
sent messengers ahead to select camp
ing grounds and to notify the settlers
and ranchmen that they mean no
harm.
1t is believed by old Indian fighters
here that If proper diplomacy is used
there is no chance of battle with the
redskins, who are inclined to be peace
able, but resent the action of the gov
ernmert in demanding their return to
their reservation. They assert they
left their reserve because they we're
dissatisfied with conditions there and
would starve If compelled to remain
on the reservation. They simply left
for self-preservation and are going to
big water, wood, big game and life
happy" as Chief Appah expresses 1t.
Major Grierson, in command of the
Tenth cavalry, has recommended that
Indian inspectors and Sioux Indian
diplomats be sent here by the govern
ment to hold big powwow with the
Utes and in connection with the army
try to induce the Indians to return.
Major Grierson Is confident the In
dams will not return to their reserva-
tion unless confronted by an over
whelming force and will resist any
small force against them. When the
Indians are rounded up they will be
escorted, says Major Grierson, to Fort
Meade, there to be held pending fur
ther instruction of the war depart
ment.

Sheridan, Wyo., Oct. 3O.-Soldiers
are now approaching the band of rene
gade Utes from five different points
and it Is only a question of time until
the redskins are either forced to sur
render or are annihilated by the cav
airy from Fort Keogh approaching
from the north, two more troops from
Fort Meade from the northwest, two
from Fort Robinson out OF Gillette
closing in from the southeast, two
from the same fort advancing from
Arvada from the south and two COM
panies OF infantry from Fort McKen-
zie from the west. The Utes are trav-
cling northwest and according to re-
port have not yet passed the Big Pow
der. The band Is making direct for
the Cheyenne agency across the river.
It now looks as though the several
bodies Of oncoming military will arrive
in the vicinity of Ashland, sixty miles
north OF here, within twenty-four
hours, In which event battle will
probably be fought in the valley OF
Tongue river, near that place. Ash
land is twelve miles from the border
OF the Cheyenne reservation and the
Utes have already sent cOuriers to the
Cheyenne for help In case they decide
on resistance to the regulars Squads
OF infantry from Fort Mckenzie have
left Sheridan for Arvada, where they
will guard the supplies in order to re
lease the full strength OF the cavalry.
