' The Ogden Pilot learns that a Ban- nock boy about twelve years of age j met with a horrible death at tho flour j ing mills at Fort Hall Indian Agency, j Idaho, on last Tuesday. Tho boy was idling around the mill at the tirao, and happened to get in the machinery, and was badly crushed and mangled beforo he could be taken from the gearing. Ho died soon afterward.s. It is a custom of Indians to burn or destroy all things connected with tho death of their tribe. For instance, if! one meets death by a kick from a horse, the animal is killed; and if from disease an Indian dies in a wickiup or lodge, it is bnrnod. Tho mill in which tho accident occurred was built by tho government at n cost of $7,000 or S8,000, and was worth thai amount of i money. Between 0 and 7 a. m., on the Gth, this mill was discovered to Iwj jon fire and was soon entirely con sumed, witu n largo amount of wheat and flour belonging to the Indians. This grain and flour was worth from $2,000 to S3,00o. At the agency there aro two tribes of Indians, Bannocks and Shoahone3, and iho grain and flour belonged mostly to the latter. From the well known practice of tho Indians, which they . consider a religious duty to avenge the death of one of their tribe by fire or killing, it was natural to place tho destruction of tho mill at tho hands of tho Bannocks, and the Shoshoncs losing their property has caused a strong feeling between tho two tribes. It is not apprehended that this will lead to any soriou trouble between the Indiana, and yet it may possibly do so. It would seom that ail Indians have pretty much the same notions in re gard tv avenging themselves npon anything, animate or inanimate, which hurts or kills one of their people. In Ion a some twenty-five years ago, when the town of Cedar Rapids was in its infancy, a large flouring mill was erected, and was the pride of the place. Indians frequently came to tho mill for flour and wero allowed to go about in the building pretty much as they pleased, the working of the machinery being a thing they never tired of watching. One day several of the "children of tho prairio" were in the mill and were watching tho group of cog wheels at tached to the bolting apparatus. Seeing the nheel run so smoothly, an Indiau boy was tempted to put his bare foot npon one of them. Tn an instant tho foot wa3 shorn of all its toea. Seeing what the wheel had done, the father of the boy seixed a sledge hammer and demolished every wheel of the bolting apparatus, and, descending to the lower floor, wa3 proceeding to smash every moving wheel in the mill, when the employes interfered and wrested the hammer from his hands. From that day forward, by strict rule, every Indian was excluded from the mill. 'Kcrraty l"iinrtorned(vt-ith pimplcH) Im Adorned thoJZost."

The Bribery Case The trial of W. S. Beebe is at tracting much attention, and is get ting to be more interesting as it is narrowing don to the end. The aUto has got all its testimony in and its evidenco is to the effect thai a notowa3 written by Judge Masm to a juror named Brigmau, toiling him to aland pat, aud have other --f the jury do the same; that Beebc gave niony to C. L. DuBois in the court houso whilo tho jurors wero in their room, and that other money was giv en mid offered. Tim defense denies all :lu material parts in issu. and claim-t that the note referred to is a forgory; that tho money given Du Boin nas ten dollars which he hnd asked Carrie Bradley for, claiming he had spent that amount for her: that the money wa.t obtained from Jo:. Taylor at the nncst of Carrie Bradley, uud given to DuBois at the pLce mentioned, as he said he had to have it thnt night. I'righain, the juror, testified that he had not beeu tampered with, aud Beebe's testimony was a encnil de nial of all charges except the ten dol lar transaction which will have cor roborative evidence before the trial ends. Judge ?Ja.sj:i w.vj oh the stand when the court adjourned, and will probably lo kept there the :njst of this morning. It is not likely that the case will be concluded t-i-d.iy. Stanford, IX. Probable Change.
