and little or none during the winter.
The fish and game official said he
was asking state university biologists
for the scietific explanation Of the
caves, but meantime Blum could tell
his messmates that there really are
ice caves and wells in the state, and
that the fish and game department
will back him up.

celebrated in the usual manner at the
fort, by "big drunk throughout" At
this time there were 60 or 10 men at
the fort. The halfbreeds in Fort
William got gloriously drunk About
midnight old Mother Deschamps said
to her children, Nov my sons, if you
are men, you will revenge the death
of your father" This struck them
favorably, and being in liquor, they
Immediately killed old Jack Rem,
swore they would kill all the half
breeds they considered his friends,
and even threatened the whites in
the fort. This took place about mid
night, when the spree in Fort Union
had subsidized, and all hands had gone

and voices at the door, which later 1
could distinguish as those of females,
crying. "Open the door, quick!- they
are fighting-they have killed my
father" They were the widow of
Michael Gravel and her mother, the
wife Of Jack REM"
The coming of the women reused
the men at the fort, who one and all
vowed they would exterminate the
Deschamps family. They demanded
arms, ammunition and a cannon.
Mr.. Mckenzie did not dare refuse
them, and then they set out for Fort
William. "All of the horses and all of
the company's effects were removed
from the fort continues Larpenteur,
"and before the fight commenced the
Deschamps were required to turn out
their squaws. who were Assinniboine
women, whom we did not want to kill
for fear of the tribe. Thinking the
fight would not take place as long as
they kept in the squaws, they refused
to turn them out. After allowing them
what time we thought necessary to
make up their minds on this subject,
the order to fire was given"
At length realizing the squaws
would not protect them, they were
turned out. when the firing went on
merrily, until the old lady herself
came out with the pipe of peace, beg
ging for her life and that of her
children; but she was shot through
the heart in stepping out of the fort"
Her death did not terminate the
firing, which continued until late in
the day. ut was feared that the
fight might continue until night, I'M
der cover of which they could make
their escape, which would prove SER
ious to the company in future; and as
the bloody work had begun, it was
obliged to be accomplished. In order
to do SO, it was thought proper to set
the fort on fire, with the view of
burning them in it; but for fear that
some might escape through the fire,

Fire was then set to the fort, which
was burned together with those
within. the victors permitting none to
escape.
1t was thought the Descnamps were
emboldened to commit their last
atrocities from the belief that Mr.
Mitchell, who had recently visited
them, and was married to a daughter
of Deschamps. would protect them
from punishment. Mr.. Mitchell was
later in charge of Fort Mckenzie on
the Marias, but was then at Fort
Clark. Mrs. Mitchell and a younger
sister, and boy of five years, were
the sole survivors of this family of
deSperadoes.

ice wells or mines in the Treasure

The soldier, Corporal Lyman C.
Blum, formerly OF Forsyth and now in

his claim that there was, between
Lame Deer and Ashland, a natural

Cooney, co-ordinator for the wild

The Boston Comic Opera Co. last
night presented "Pinafore" at the

that good time literally was had
by all. For by the time the slight

merry trials of British seamen had
proceeded to the Act II trio of
"Pinafore," audience and cast alike
were just about overcome with the

Arnold Is Optimistic.
Edward Arnold told a Los Angeles

that America is awake to the war,
contrary to what any one else says.
He said that 80 or more Hollywood
actresses and actors who have been
touring the country-every city and
hamlet-in the interests of War bond
sales, should know what's going on
and they report there is nothing
wrong with the citizenry in general.
AS an example, Arnold said he was
asked to stop at tiny town, $50

He did so and found the envelope
contained $2,700 in cash, for bonds
