Culbertson.-John Bauer, a local pu-
gilist, was shot and probably mortally
wounded by John Hatfield at a dance
The collar bone was broken by the
bullet, which had passed down into
the left lung. Bad blood probably
prompted the shooting, though no par
ticulars of the cause of the shooting
have been given. Hatfield is from
Tennessee and a descendant of the
Hatfields of feudal fame. The shoot.

It is not only from Kentucky, but

are they who are answering the call
OF that unsettled territory" This pa

be wise precaution. and is exactly
what the Canadian officials ask.

Indians Object to Opening Lands.

. Westinghouse delegation of Grow
Indians presented to Commissioner Of
Indian Affairs Valentine their objec-
lions to bill in the senate committee
on Indian affairs, providing for the
opening to settlement of the remain
der of the unalloted tribal lands on
their reservation in Montana. This
involves about 1,S36,000 acres Of land,
which, it is estimated, will net the
red men 100000 during the current
year as the result of a new system of
leasing these lands for grazing pur-
poses, as against $4,000 last year.
The delegation argued that only
about 100000 acres of a total $500, 900
which were opened six years ago had
been settled up to the present time,
and 1T was only fair to wait until this
tract had been consumed before open
ing the remainder of the unalloted
lands on their reservation.

der. Arnold lived in luxury, was
looked up to by all and was a vel

became friendly with several Tory
families, people who disapproved Of
the revolution and were loyal to Eng.
land. One of these Tories was Ed

magnetic manner and fame as hero
quickly won the girls heart. They be-
came engaged. Miss Shipper was q
stanch Tory. So were her family and
her friends. Influences were brought
to bear upon Arnold to shake his 10y
atty to the cause of freedom. The
woman he loved did not approve of
the revolution. The men at whose
homes he was an honored guest hated
it and had glib arguments to oppose
Arnold's faith. He was told how Gen.
Monk sold the
He.oe Commonwealth of
e"P'~''o"' England to Charles
H., and was thereafter re-
garded as hero; how the
duke of Marlborough betrayed Eng
land to William of Orange and was
made peer of the realm. Other cases
of the sort were cited to show Arnold
that betrayal of his country was not

good, since the revolution at that time
seemed doomed to failure. He and
Peggy were soon afterward married
and the wife's influence over her ador-
ing husband was almost unbounded.
She was heart and soul with the
/ Tories.
Even then it is doubtful If Arnold
would have yielded had not his enc
mics trumped up absurd charges of
official misconduct against him. These
charges were disproved, but congress
continued its prosecutions and or.
dered Washington to give Arnold a
public reprimand. That was the last
straw Arnold's patriotism, already
undermined by Peggy and her friends
was swept away in a gust of fury at

Bluefelds, Nicaragua, Feb. 12.-Gen.
Blandon died as he held in his hand
Gen. Mena's order to stand and fight.
A misinterpretation Of this order by
another is held by the PROFESSIONALS to
be responsible for the retreat of the
Estrada troops, following repulse by
the government forces at Santa Clara.
The insurgents do not admit defeat,
and declare that the way to Managua
is open to them.
1t is explained that Gen. Mena had
not expected to defeat the enemy with
his small force, but planned to keep
the government forces engaged so that
the enemy would draw achievements
from Acovapa, only 10 miles distant,
and thus be unable to send an aug
mented army against Gen. Chamorro
in the province of Matagalpa.

Apparently it pays not to be cruel
to horses out in Chicago. A teamster
who admitted abandoning his horses
for six hours on a recent stormy day
was fined $50 by magistrate. The
humane society prosecuted the case
vigorously and promised to report the
matter to the drivers employers. Pre-
sumably he will lose his job, as he
was unable to pay the fine and will
have to serve a jail term.

Some years ago a contractor build.

troubled a great deal by sickness
among the laborers.
He turned his attention at once to
their food and found that they were
getting full rations Of meat and were
drinking water from a stream near by.
He issued orders to cut down the
amount OF meat and to increase greatly
the quantity Of Quaker Oats fed to
the men.
He also boiled Quaker Oats and
mixed the thin oatmeal water with
their drinking water.
Almost instantly all signs of stomach
disorders passed and his men showed
. decided improvement in strength
and spirits.

taught him the great value Of good
oatmeal. So

Confusion Among Officers.

This purpose was effected, but the
plan did not work out exactly as had
been hoped. There was considerable
confusion among the insurgent officers
and the advantage of the subsequent
situation was in doubt. It is plain,
however, that the PROFESSIONALS took
the heavier fire of the enemy with
courage and acquitted themselves we'll
so far as personal bravery was con.
cerned.
A review of the details shows that
the campaign was we'll planned and
theoretically furthered. While Gen.
Chamorro was operating in the prov.
ince of Matagalpa, where he has since
occupied the capital, Gen. Mena, with
only $50 men and no field guns, at
tackled the enemy 600 strong and en-
trenched on a hill commanding Las
Garitas.
Deceived regarding the strength OF
the PROFESSIONALS, the enemy fell back,
taking a stand at Santa Clara. Gen.
Mena pursued. Fighting continued on
Feb. 3 at long range and with no
great damage done. A Q o'clock the
following morning the PROFESSIONALS
made desperate attack upon the
fortified position of the enemy, being
reinforced by the timely arrival OF
Gen. Blandon with 200 men and one
Maxim gun.

SmokeIess Powder Used.

The enemy's position was in the
form of semi-circle. The govern.
ment troops had been reinforced over
night by 200 men and two Maxim and
two Hotchkiss guns. These guns
were we'll placed and, using smokeless
powder, could not be discovered def.
initely by Gen. Mena. The latter's
right wing, including Gordon's Amer.
ican sharpshooters, took an exposed
position within the enemy's semi-cir.
Gle, while the insurgent left wing was
sent to the rear of the enemy at the
right of the steep hill. During the fore.
noon the fighting was chiefly between
Mena's left and the enemy's right, the
latter repulsing every attack. Gen.
Conrad of the PROFESSIONALS commended
the Maxim gun, which was posted in
an exposed position 500 yards from
one of the enemy's Maxims and 200
yards from the other. Back of the
insurgents guns was little group
composed of Gen. Blandon, the mem
bers of his staff and the half dozen
men of Conrad's gun crew.
