Livingston. Mont. Oct. 31. All
kind of game except buffalo are mul
tiplying rapidly . in Yellowstone
National Park. There are thousands
of deer, elk and antelope. During the
past season herds ofjslle- uMwino;
200 to 400" have been seen at various
dmcs. aud deer are fully as plentiful.
Bears ar- getting too numerous and
steps must be taken to get rid of them.
Tbey are so bold that they will enter
and take ossession of camps of tour
ists and cannot be driven out. The
laws governing the park will not per
mit the killing of them. Meat must
be hung in tbe trees to prevent them
getting it, and cooks are frequently
driven from their tents by the
animals.
The park has now closed for the
season, and the small herd of buffalo
have been removed to a small incloeure
near the Lake hotel, and Captain
Waters who put taem there, baa re
turned to his horn at Fond du Lao,
Wisconsin, in tbe spring be will re
turn them wo the island, and has great
hopes that a large lerd will grow np.
Tbey are tbe only buffalo in the park
now, all others bavt been killed in the
past two seasons by poachers.

A prominent Cuban resident of this

without assuming the role of a prophet,
the Herald could positively announce
that the city of Havana would be be
singed by Maximo Gomez within the
next 60 days. To that end he said
Gomez and all- the rebel forces were
now mar'.hini; westward toward the
capital. This Cuban is in direct com
munication with tbe insurgent leaders
in the field, and is the local medium
through whom all insurgent corres

pascs He also stated that, there was
no c itifirmatiun of a rumor circulated
by Cuban passengers who arrived here
last night, that towns in the outskirts
of Havana had been already besieged
hy the insurgents.
It is also all. ged that Maceo is now
at Colon a central point in Mattnzas
province, and that his mission there is
to concentrate at'd a-snme command
of the forces of Kicardo. Trujillo, Ro
j ts and other minor rebel leaders, who
have been operating in that vicinity,
with between 4000 and 5000 well armed
men. - ' s
Gomes has not been heard f om since
his attack on the town of Cascorro.
, The ominous silence of Gomez is
S lid to presage the planning of a series
of important attacks on the principal

provinces, his apparent inactivity hav
ing been caused only by a desire to
await the fulfillment of necessary
preparations.

Mty Prophetically Amonissd The '
Coutry to Be Divided Into
Three Kingdoms.
Reports of a serious revolt against
the present Chinese government la
Manchnrin and the issue of proclama
tions by the rebels declaring that the
Manchu dynasty ia near its end have
created a great deal of interest - among .
the foreign colony in the treaty porta,
says a letter from Shanghai. News
that bears directly' upon the reported
disaffection in many provinces of China
comes from Nanking. It appears that '
all up through the great valley of the
Yangtse a finely written prophecy of '
the approaching end of Manchu rule ia
being circulated. . It is almost impossi
ble for a foreigner who has not lived
in China to understand the importance
that is given by the gentry to anything;
which is well written or carefully
printed. If such a document does not
strongly violate the probabilities it
will be accepted as Gospel truth.
This prophecy, says the Chicago
Tribune, appears to be firmly believed
by all the Chinese who have read it It
purports to have been written by Huaa
Peh-Shan, who in a vision describes
the downfall of the present govern
ment. It shows considerable literary
ability, bnt anyone who ia skeptical
may readily see that the author has
thrown in local detail to clinch hia
prophecy. .
The sketch, of the emperors of China
is very well done, but this historical in
traduction appears to have been writ
ten merely to lull the suspecions of the
reader and to induce him to accept the
sensational statements about the com
ing ruin of the Manchu dynasty. The
prophet declares that the great prov
inces of Yunnan and Kueichou are tne
first that 'will abandon the empire.
After this China will be divided into
three kingdoms, but this will not take
place and permanent- peace will not be
secured until the woods are cleared
from Purple mountain and the waters
of Lotus lake are dried up. The
specious nature of such a prophecy may t
be seen when it is stated that abouv-
all the forest has been cut off of P"
pie mountain, while in dry yeary
