FLATHEAD INDIAN TKOUIiLES.
Farmers in the Vicinity Petition
for Protection from Violence.
Helena, Mont., Oct. 23. Gov
ernor White ia in receipt of an olli
cial report from Washingtou of the
recent Indian trouble on the Flat
head reservation. It gives the
Indians' side of one of their tribe
last summer. From all reports the
trouble is not yet over. The farm
ers residing in the vicinity of the
leservation have prepared petitions
to the governor for protection.
They claim that a band of the
Indians frequently get drunk and
roam restlessly around, threaten
ing to avenge the loss of their mur
dered brother. Investigation into
tho case shows that tlie Indians
obtain their liquor from some of
the white people in the vicinity.
The complaints have been some
what numerous of late, and the
governor has recommended that
two companies of soldiers be sta
tioned on tho reservation. The
ranchers' and fanners' wives and
children are uneasy whenever the
Indians become boisterous.
THE PENSION t'ONTKOVEKS Y.
Farther Dcvt-loimientt of Interest
l ikely to Ensue.
Washixi-.-ox, Oct. iM. It i-
thought the controversy between
Secretary Noble and Corporal Tan
ner over the hitter's management
oi the pension uiliee is not yet at
an end. Jt is understood that
more letters and further corres
pondence will be published, and
that the subject is likely to occupy
considerable public attention dur
ing the week. More feeling is evi
dently entertained by the parties
directly interested than on the part
of the public, for, as far as the
body of the people is concerned,
very little feeling is expressed.
There is a regret among his friends
that ex-Commissioner lanner lias
said so much on the subject, and
his admirers havo very materially
decreased in number. Miss Tan
ner, daughter of the late commis
sioner, still holds the position of
confidential clerk to commissioner
of pensions.

OREGON SCHOOL LANDS.
The Kurd en of Proof as to Filing on
Indemnity Selections Fixed.
A Washingtou dispatch nys the
Assistant Coiimiissiouer Stone ren
deic.l a decision in a case which in
volved the question of proof on school
indemnity selections ia Oregon.
Oregon waa granted every sixteenth
and thirty-sixth section of land for
school purposes. The law also pro
vided iu case any of these lands had
been entered under the Public Land
laws prior to the dale of the grant,
that the (State should bo eutitled to
indemnity therefor, and might make
indemnity selections from any un
occupied public lands. Iu pursuance
of this authority the State, it ap
pears, selected in the aggregate
large tract upon which expected pre
emption tilings were of record. The
question at issue was whether the
burden of proof of the fact that the
tilin'8 expired rested with the State
or witl. the parlies who made the
filings. The assistant commissioner
holds in favor of the State, and has
directed that in all such exses the
pre-emptor shall be required to ap
pear before the local land officers
within twenty days after the receipt
of notice and show cause why the
entry shall not be cancelled, thus
throwing the burden of proof upon
the entrymcn. It is said that there
are a large aumber of cases in the
General Land Office which will thus
be disposed of.
A Lost Art.
Ircn A?e.
Tempering copper is one of the lost
arts which has been actively sought
for by scientists and mechanics for
years. The process has been acci
dentally discovered, and tests of the
quality of the copper thus treated
have shown most remarkable strength
and wearing qualities. It will be
especially valuable for use in the
bearings and commutators of dynamo
machines, aud also for the journals of
locomotives and cars. An establish
ment in Pennsylvania is now placing
the metal upon the market.

A Pi inter's Addition to a Wild
Western Tale.
Cli'tL-ayi) Times.
A printer told the story.
'1 bad a good job,'" be said, "in

one id nose pnut shops where they
publish stvnes of tbc 'Skeleton
lluuttr's I.at Gurgling Gasp' order
oy the cord. It is the rankest
kiud ot' rot and is liable to give a
printer blood poUouing if he
handles much of it. It is tbe sort
of literature that inducts little boys
to get up iu tho night, bteul tbc old
man's pocketbook, buy g'JuS and
start out West to rescue the im
parled maiden from the lair of tbc
robber cbieltain and restore ber
to her agonized parents.
"There weie twenty printers and
six liar , each a full Hedged
Ananias, working in the place.
Tbe liars sat at a table in one end
of tbe room grinding out those un-
wbolsonie stories ui last as we
could put them ia type. One day
I got a wad of copy that was posi
tively sickening. It was about a
lovely tin who had been captured
and torn from her home by a heart
less white desperado and Disband
f bloodthirsty Apaches. The girl
was in a desperate fix. She either
had to marry tbe villaia or become
his wife, he din n't care wbicb, and
he was then on his way to a cave ia
the mountains, where he was eoing
to have the ceremony performed.
"That aight they camped in a
rocky gorge 209 miles from no
where and bonnd the unfortunate
maiden to a tree with the usual
buckskin thongs, which cut deep
into her tender wrists. Then ail
laid dewa and went to sleep. In
the meantime Old Zeke, the Hairy
Scout, who was on the trail,sneaked
up just at daylight, when people
sleep the soundest. Zeke sailed in
and killed twenty-five or thirty
Indians with the butt end of his
trusty rifle. He didn't want to
shoot for fear he would waken the
others. Then, after he had cut a
notch for each corpse on his gun
stock and hung the coarse, black
scalp-locks to his belt, he released
the girl, hoisted her under his arm,
jumped into the saddle and rode
away.
"He rode at full speed for forty -eight
milfs without stopping.
When night closed iu the bold
scout pulled rein and went iuto
camp. Frst he picketed his horse,
then built a lire, fixed a cot of
leaves for the girl, and got her
something to cat out of his saddle
bags. This was where I got iu my
work.
"The first thing Zeke took out of
the bags was several thick slices of
fresh Vienne bread with honey ou
them. Next came cold boiled
ham, cut tbin, an apple pie with a
short, crispy upper crust, and last
a tender spring chicken roasted a
delicate brown. Mind you, he had
all this stuff in a pair cf staddle
bags in the wilds of the liocky
Mountains, 390 miles from civili
zation, in the year lb'3G. It made
me sick, but 1 resolved that the
poor girl should have cue good
feed it I died for it. So I shoved
in anothc: paragiaph like this,
completing tbe bill ol fare:
-Alter getting the girl started
Zske reached into the saddle bag
and pulled out a bowl of steaming
hot consomme and a broiled fresh,
mackerel, seme deviled crabs, cold
slaw, potato salad, a half fry, veal
cutlets breaded, witb tomato sauce,
rreen corn oa the cob, some clam
chowder, stewed turkey, a portion
ot rice puuuiag, two cups ot choco
late, pork tenderloin. Kocuefort
cheese, and a bottle of Bass' ale,
Saratoga chips, a plate ot vanilla
ice cream, a Chinese paper napkia,
sliced cucumbers, some California
grapes and a nickie plated nut
cracker. "
"Did it go?'' asked an iaterested
listener.
"No, it didn't,' said the printer,
sadly, '-but I did." The boss cme
to nic next morning with a proof
slip and wanted to know who was
writing tbat ttory. I said the
author was makiag a stagger in
that direction, but wasn't giving
tbe girl a fair show.
" 'That may be,' said the boss,
'but if he wants to rnn a caie in
connection with tbe story we'll hire
a cook and make it easier for you." '
"Then be told me tbat I was too
smart te he a printer, and had net
ter go out where the cool air would
strike me. I went."
