structure. The mouldings and every
thing which could be torn from the
wells were missing together with
large quantities ct plaster. The hymn
books and Bibles had been mutilated
and burned.

 ON RESERVATION. HAD BEEN HIRED AS FARMER CAPTAIN LOST JOB FOR BEING TOO CAREFUL OF GOVERN.
 MENT's MONEY.
HAD BEEN HIRED As FARMER

Captain Kelly, for years the Indian agent on the San Carlos reservation, has been removed from office.
 Whats more, the captain, who was dubbed in certain quarters the Gear of San Carlos has been superseded by civilian, a young college man, who knew nothing of Indians or Indian life until he arrived on the reservation. The new agents name is Weaver. MT. Weaver dropped in from some where sometime ago and applied for a position to Captain Kelly. Weaver was employed as farmer and went to work like good fellow. absorbing knowledge of his surroundings right along
 One fine morning, couple of weeks ago, Weaver called on Captain Kelly at the post residence and exhibited his commission from Washington. There was nothing to be done by the captain but to bow to his successor, although it is intimated that the captain did add a few expressions of opinion concerning various and sundry personalities, among which that of MT. Weaver may or may not have been included.
 | Chief Clerk Rabinovtz is still in of fee, but the white men on the reserva- tion are taking much interest in the fact that Fiscal Agent Fisk, new fiscal agent, has arrived with wife | and three or four trunks so large as to make it seem plausible that he in | tends to remain at San Carlos for quite an extended visit
 The cause of Captain Kelly's removal is public property on the reservation, as | it is in official circles in Globe. The captain s sin was exaggerated economy Of the money sent him from Washing ton for the care of the Indians, the building of roads, etc, on the reserva | ton, he sent back thousands of dollars stinting so that Indians left the reserva tion in large numbers and are now scattered all over the country, as fai to the north as Roosevelt, and further It is also stated that the captain had a penchant for filling the thirty or for ty positions in his appointment with personal friends, to the disregard oi other considerations.
 No charges of dishonesty were mad, against Captain Kelly, but the forego ing features of his administration SC ranked in the breast of various per sons interested that complaints were made at Washington with the result that Weaver applied for a job as a farmer and got it--the rest has already been told.

Then. if they can tear themselves from the ticker, let ters are written on our stationery.

They also take generous nibbles cf the cheese and crackers in the cafe.
