lands, caused the defeat of the resolu-
tions which would have clothed the In

The department will be compelled to
leave the lands as they are until the
tribe is convinced that it is best to
authorize the leasing of them.

able from springs and creeks crossing
their own boundaries and are suitable
for the production of all fruits grown
in this climate. Peaches and pears
equal to the choicest fruits exhibited in
our expositions are grown on these
lands.
Chamokane creek, which bounds the
reservation on the east, is one of the
best trout streams in the northwest.
The reserve is natural haunt for
pheasants, grouse and quail, and there
is some big game. Heretofore whites
were not permitted to hunt on these
lands without permission from the In
dian agent, and as an Indian never
carries a shotgun, game birds are plen-
tiful.
The mineral lands have never been
opened to prospecting. The mineral
belt, containing the great lodges of the
Deer Trail country, crosses the reserva-
ton. The tungsten mines at Germania
are on its border. Samples of copper,
silver and tungsten ore Of remarkable
richness have been brought out by pros
pectors, who made secret excursions in
to the forbidden territory.
The Washington Water Power COM
pany of Spokane, is developing an i'm
mense power at the Little Falls, on the
Spokane river, adjoining the lands to
be opened. This will provide electric
power for pumping and other purposes
at small cost, as the distance of trans
mission is short. Two lines of electric
railways are projected from Spokane to
Miles. One of these will be built by
the Spokane & Inland Empire Electric
railway system, headed by Jay P.
Graves, who is backed by Chicago, New
York and Boston capitalists. This com.
pany already has more than 22O miles
of electric lines in operation in eastern
Washington and northern Idaho. One
of its lines is within a few miles of
the Occur d 'Alene reservation.
The Indians ON the Spokane reserva.
ton are generally intelligent and peace.
able and all are self-supporting. In
character, they are as far above the
vagabond Siwashes who frequent the
alleys and backdoors of the city, as
the white farmers are above the COM
mon hoboes. Chief Joseph, head of the
once powerful Nez Perez tribe, who
gave General o. o. Howard his hardest
fight in the frontier days, lived there
several years after his Punishment from
the Snake river country. He was the
most intelligent Indian of his time, and
his death was deplored by the whites
and reds alike.
Antoine Shelea is the sole survivor
of the old chieftains. He lives in the
Antwoine valley, near the Okanogan
river. In the early days there was
only one great chief, but before his
death he appointed three, one of whom
is old Antoine, who is head of the tribe.
Most of the Indians live in houses and
cultivate small farms, while the squaws
busy themselves with basket making
and bead work, at which they are
adopts. They like to visit and they are
never too busy to feast and talk of the
days that were and of those to come.

Has Cook Reached the Poleq

Word is expected almost any day
from f. A. Cook, arctic explorer, who
is now believed to be awaiting trans
portation home at Etah, North Green
land. The Actic club in New York,
which sent him north, processes the
earnest belief that he has reached the
north pole, reviewing the journal he
sent home from Cape Hubbard last
year, from which point he made his
final dash for the pole.

Though the Spokane reservation in
eastern Washington, to be open to regis
tration of applicants for homestead en-
try July Is to August S, at the United
States land Office in this city, contains
$4,000 acres, of which $4,000 have
been allotted to the Indians, only 5000
acres, classified as agricultural lands
will be thrown open TO settlement dur
ing the drawings at Occur d'Alene,
Idaho, August 9. The remaining $4,000
acres are timber and mineral lands.
The timbered lands cannot be entered.
The reservation is 80 miles northwest
of Spokane. AS proximity to markets
makes those lands desirable, it is ex-
pected that thousands of homeseekers
will file applications.
The lands surrounding the reservation,
which is served by the Columbia and
the Spokane rivers, has been occupied
for years. There are several towns at
distances of from IA to 20 miles on
the south. These are Reardan, Daven-
port and Creston. Miles is on the res
ervations boundary, whore the waters
of the Spokane and Columbia rivers
meet, The town was formerly Fort
Spokane. Captain John McA. Webster
is the Indian agent in charge. Spring
dale is three and one-half miles from
the northeast corner of the reservation.
At each of these towns there are general
stores and hotel and livery accommoda-
tions, while Reardan, Davenport and
Springdale have banks. These towns
may be reached in few hours ride
from Spokane, and from each is good
wagon road to the reservation.
The lands is level and is covered with
scattering growth of yellow pine trees,
which will yield from 100000 to 100000
feet board measure, the quarter section.
There is little underground. There are
two sawmills, each within a mile of the
boundary of the reservation. The soil
is sandy with little white clay inter
mingled. 1t should probably be rated
as agricultural land of the second class.
The altitude is 1900 feet above sea
level, or little lower than the city of
Spokane. The climate is similar to that
of other portions of the Inland Empire.
There are no high winds, as the valley
at that point is protected by mountain
ranges ON both sides.
The land is best adapted to fruit
raising. Soil, climate and altitude rem
der it especially available for apple
growing and small fruit culture. To
insure crops, irrigation should be pro-
vided. There is no water available to
be supplied by gravity, but wells from
rs to IS feet in depth should provide
ample supply.
Much of the land allotted to the In
dams has been and can be leased
through the Indian agent. When an
Indian dies his allotment, on applica-
ton of the heirs, is sold by the Indian
agent to the highest bidder and the pro-
ceeds distributed among the heirs.
Lands belonging to Indians, who are
unable to utilize them by reason of age,
illness or disability, may be sold in like
manner.
Many of these allotments are irrig-

Chicago, June 29.-An explosion !.

The exact nature of the exnlo.;a.
unknown because of the great ama ma
OF debris thrown around the alley wbs,'
it occurred. The police think Il ano,s '
er of the series of gamblers war bom iI
that have mystifed detectives for mo,.
than two years.
The scene of the explosion was i :.
alley In the rear of the central tolo
phone exchange. This EXCHANGE e.

the night. Two restaurants facipc !
Clark street were blown practicallS /

In this alley also was the rear .,

and his associates in the buiIainc
trades.
Madden and his men are fpurino
largely in labor disputes at present and
have been the subject of grand iu,v

Another place opening into the aIev
which was badly damaged was the cash
register store of Mont Tennes, who /,
alleged to conduct several gamblino
places. Tennes' place has been raidei
frequently by the police and another
bomb was exploded there year ago.
On the opposite side of Clark street
two windows were crashed. The street
was covered with glass an inch thick.
Iron gates fronting the alley were bent
inward by the explosion. The crash
was heard for miles.
Theories of Police.
The police estimate the damage at
100000. One theory is that 50 cleo.
trio installers, who have been on strike,
may have been behind the outrage.
Another theory is that gamblers who
have suffered loss through the co-Opera.
ton or the telephone company with
the police sought to retaliate. Tween.

of service by the explosion.
A number of girl operators were at
