Sap Ponlea and Dogs Will Starve to Death More Snow Than for Many Years in Cascades. Hon. W II. Hare, member ot tho legislature) from Yakima county, Wash., reports an unusual snowfall In tho Cascades and on the eastern slopes ot the mountains. This Is tho first time In many years that the snow has banked up seven feet deep on tho lovel, at tho summit of tho moun tains. In 'December. Sleighing Is In order at Ellensburg, where there Is snow to the depth ot 18 Inches. In Yakima the weather Is cold and tho snow has disappeared. Indians Excited. "The Indians arc very much excited over tho weather," said Sir. Hare. "They predict deep snows and a hard winter. Many ponies will die nnd dogs fctarvo in tepees. Before spilng they will begin the Chinook dances and make things merry. Several years ago we had snow before Christmas and a severe winter. Tho Indians we.it wild and danced for many days and nights before tho weather moder ated. One chief stabbed himself with a knlfo until he died from tho effects of his wounds. He did this to appeaso the wrath ot the bad spirit and bring on a Chinook wind to melt tho snow. I Alfalfa $7 Per Ton. "Alfalfa hay is selling for $7 a ton in tho stack. It is estimated that over 10,000 head of cattle are being fed. on tho Indian reservation. Those having- lands leased have received more for pasturage and tho straw stacks than tho annual rental of tho lands. No one is crying about over production of alfalfa. There was a large crop grown this year and most of It will bo fed on tho farms, to sheep and cattle. Farmers are expecting high prices for hay next spring and are holding their hay. Tho hay buyuri on Puget Sound will figure without their host If the count too much on tho Yakima alfalfa crop. located on tho lands, nnd tho Indians have no uso for that additional tract, an effort is bi'ing mado to purchase tho ncreagc Tho Indians nro holding meetings and talking tho matter over. Some of them have had a misunder standing and circulated the story about the government buying the res ervation and giving each Indian $16. 000 to vacate. YAKIMA RESERVE NOT SOLD. Through a Misunderstanding Some of the Indians Believe the Government Will Buy Their Lands. The rumor that the government has offered $7,000,000 for tho Yakima In dian reservation is all a mistake. Two government men are there at present making deals with tho Indians. One of them has made somo offer for 300. 000 acres recently reverting to the In dians through a corrected survey of the reservation. Tho old Indian com mission offered 25 cents an acre for this land and tho Indians laughed at the proposition. As many people have To Probe Freight Raise. Washington, Dec. 10.
