Indians. After a short engagement

Colonel Sawyer made plans to go
to the Big Horn river to build a post,
but he received opposition from Red
Cloud and Dull Knife, who asked him
not to build any roads and to stay
out of the country. A battle of. sew

two soldiers, one Mexican, and several
horses were killed and five Sioux
wounded.
Pawnee scouts discovered a heavy
Indian trail as General Connor's COM

Major North reported this to the COM
handing officer, who sent him and
ten of the Pawnee scouts to follow
the trail. After travelling about Is
miles they found a large village of
Indians, consisting of nearly 300 lodges.
General Connor Joined North with 400
men and two pieces of artillery. The
troops charged the camp and dispersed
its inhabitants, who were chiefly

to proceed up Powder river to Fort

FINANCIAL PUZZLE
 CONFR0NTS BERLIN Tax RateGoes Down, Budget Up,
 Causing Grave Doubts WAR VETERAN IS BURIED
Alvin W. Bunncll Accorded Military HonorS - Legion to Meet and Play SetbaCk-Singing School -I Funeral of Sven Benson.

There is some scratching of heads in the township these days over the apparent difficulties which have ap. peared in the budget and the tax rate. It is the rule everywhere, and Berlin is no exception. that tax payers are averse to high rates on their property. With this fact in mind, presumably, the finance board has seen fit to set the rate for the coming year at 16 mills, in- stead of 1G1a, which prevailed in 1929. Now some of the financial minded arc trying to figure out what is going to happen when an increased budget goes up against a decreased tax rate.
 The reduction of half mill makes a difference of about s4,000 in the towns income. The budget adopted at the last town meeting calls for the expenditure of $l5l,- IFS, as compared with $l4S,500 for the previous year, an increase of S@,67S in the expenses. There has been an increase in the grand list, which is $S,0l9,600 this year against $7,95S,400 last, but this will not supply the necessary revenue to warrant the budget.
