says that his visit is in connection
with tho projected Manitoba & South
eastern railway, which is intended to
comiect with tho lino from Dnluth at

Tho presumption is that tho Grand
Trunk is again turning toward the
northwest with a view of becoming a
competitor for traffic coming to and
originating here.
The Northern Pacific and Grand

former will render the latter all possi

THE CLIFF DWELLEItS.
A VNH to Their Old Houses In the Arizona
Hills.
Ed. S. Gill, oue of the editors of the
Plmmis, Arnjj Hejnihlican, has been
making a tour of the country in the
vicinity of Flagstaff. He said: "The
nearest poiut of interest to Flagstaff
is the nuns of the homes of the ancient
cliff-dwellers at Walnut canyon. The
first 200 or 300 feet near the bottom of
the canyon is a hard gray sandstone
formation. Above that and continu
ing to the top in successive terraces
the rock is of a soft limestone charac
ter. These upper stratas are cut
back from the base and in the in
dentures thus made stand the homes
of the ancient oliff-dewellers.
Tho openings to these cave dweil
ingconsisted of but a a narrow door
from 1G to 20 iuches in width, and
these answered not only as means of
ingress and egress, but as vents for
the outlet of smoke and windows for
lights. Most of the rooms were small,
being about 7x9 feet in size. Occa
sionally yon will find them larger, and
I saw one about 12 feet square, on two
sides of which was built a stone seat
about 1Q inches high. Evidently this
had been used for np assembly or con
sultation rponi. The outer walls and
partitions show much skill in masonry.
Although constructed of rough and
ill-shaped stones, with a niorlar that
seems to be a mixture ot lime, sand
and adobe mud, the sides arc on a
plumb lino and theiitling ot the par
tition walls to the solid rock above
show skill equal to that of tho nine
teenth century.

Civil service reform still goes re
forming on. Since the law went into
operation the number ot employes in
tho classified service has been in
creased from 10,000 to 30,000.

A CHOW I. MIX PICNIC.
Sume Very Xealiitic Keprcscntatioiw of
Hi (Icons Hattle Scenes.
'I saw one of the grandest sights I
oversaw in mylifo on Ihe Fourth,"
said General Urisbin. '-The Crow
Indians celebratod the Fourth, and it
is impossible to describe the scenes
enacted. Thoy went wild with de
light and entered into the sport in
earnest.
'There were 250 of the Crows alto
gether. In the first place they made
false faces ot bine clay and pieces of
canvas, rendering their nppearauco
perfectly frightful. It is truly won
derful the way they got up the faces.
Some had long noses, others long
chins; some had horns upon their
heads, and, in fact, thoy were made up
in every conceivable shape. They also
decorated their person in every im
aginable style. The ponies were cov
ered with canvas, gorgeously deco
rated with everything they could get
hold of. The agent had arranged for
their amusement on that occasion, but '
the details were left for them to fill J
up. I sent a battery over at their re
quest, and a oontiuued roar was kept
up all day.
"They performed in a large circle.
and their chief delight was in sham
battles. The scenes wero so ieahstic
that it w:is difficult to realize that the
were not in earnest. They dashed
about the ring upon their ponies,
lighting with wooden lances. Soino
of the Indians would pretend that
they wore killed or wounded, when
they would be carried from the battle
field and attended by those selected
for that purpose. The scalping scene
was the great feature of the occasion.
They had taken pieces of flannel ;
and fastened them upon the heads
of those who were to be pre
tended victims, and when this was re
moved with the scalpiug-knive3 the
face was besmeared with red ink to
give the appearance of bleeding
wounds. It was almost hideous spec
tacle, and the ladies who had gone
7mr-ti in vtltaca 41ii rtt-nnf trrnia itm
UUtlJl H l.AA4l30 till blbllt lll,&l LUUl
pelled to leave, it was so shockingly
terrible. The Indians, howover, enjoy
ed the sport hugely, and at night had a
big war dance. i
"It was impossible to get them to :
return home to their farms for three
days. The agent says that this will be
the last one, as it excites the young
bucks too much and recalls old times
to the warriors, attracting them from
their civilized pursuits. It seems re
markable that nono of the redskins
were not injured. Their horscmausliip
is superb, and it is worth goiug thou
sands of miles to see the exhibition of
horsemanship given by tho tribe. Al
together it was one of Uio grandest
sights I ever saw, and I uover expect
to see its equal."eeii Journal.

"WASiriKGTOX, Aug. 29. This morn
ingMr. Blair presented a memorial of
the "Women's National Industrial
League for the suppression and pun
ishment of "armed assassins," known
as "Pinkerton detectives." It was re-1
ferred to the judiciary committee.
Edmunds offered a concurrent reso
lution, which went over, "that when
congress adjourns on the 12th of
September it be to meet on the 10th
of November."
The tariff bill was taken up, the
pending question being on tho finance
committee's amendment to paragraph
307, whii'h taxes salt in bags and
packages 10 cents per 100 pounds, and
salt in bulk S cents. Tho amendment
being to striko out the proviso allow
ing drawbacks on salt used in ex
ported meats.
McPherson moved to strike out the
entire paragraph, the effect of Avhich
wonld be to place salt on the free list.
Colqu'tt advocated McPherson's
amendment, and read an extract fiom
a speech made by Benton in the sen
ate half a century ago against tho salt
tax.
Hoar asked whether Benton had not
made that speech about the same time
he made another speech declaring Ore
gon and the whole of the Pacific coast
territories utterly worthless for agri
cultural purposes.
Reagan remarked that "Webster said
substantially the same thing.
McPherson's amendment was re

"Vest made a point that to strike out
tho provisions for drawback as pro

Vienka, Aug. 29. A distressing
murder and suicide is the sensation
here to-dav.
City Architect Herr Soling was dis
turbed at the attachment his 18 year
year old daughter had formed for a
lieutenant in the lancers named
Fischer, ahd started with the girl for a
holiday trip in the Tyrol, hoping thus
to cure her of her infatuation.
Herr Saling and his family had
reached Ozethal, a small village with
one hotel, when they learned that the
lieutenant was following them and be
fore night he arrived and put up at
the hotel where they were stopping.
The parents of Mis3 Saling watched
their daughter carefully, that she
might have no communication with
Fischer, and for several days she was
not out of their sight.
Tuesday morning tho young lady
left her apartment to go to the break
fast room. She was slightly in ad
vance of her father, and on reaching
the room occupied by the lieutenant
the door was suddenly thrown open
and he sprang out into the passage
way, seized the girl around tho waist
and dragged her back into his room,
where he placed a pistol against her
temple and blew out her brains.
Then, turning the weapon upon
himself, he fired a second time and
fell dead beside her.
UKCIOEDtiY DISAGREEABLE.
To have dispatches coming nicely
and, before half the report of the
evening is received to have them sud
denly stop because tho wire is down,
is anything but pleasant. Neither
Manager Henderson nor his operators
are to blame, nor is any one to blame,
for the line is generally broken by a
falling tree or by some boat passing
in or out the numerous small streams
which the wire crosses. When this
occurs in tho night, it cannot bo "re
paired until next day, for tho line runs
through such a wild section of country
that it can be traversed only by day
light Last night about 9 o'clock the
wire went down, the electric current
was dead, and less than half our
usual dispatches are presented to
day. OLD EXCEPTION."
A Man Who Interviewed General Sher

In Atlanta, Ga., says the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette reporter, who
had just come back from atrip through
tho South, there is an old business
man with snow white beard and hair
whom everybody calls "Old Excep

Atlanta, Sherman issued an order that
all non-combative confederates should
leave the city within twenty-four

I am a business man and had no

you cast guns for the rebels in
your foundry?" General Sherman
inquired. "Yes," was the reply, "I
did, but I had to do it I have large
interests here, general, and I wish you
would make me an exception; Pd like
to stay to look after my property."
"Yes," said Sherman grimly, 'Til
make an exception in your case." The
Atlanta man's face brightened, and
started to tell a story. "Orderly,"
General Sherman called, "we've con
cluded to make an exception in this
man's case. The orders are that all
citizens shall leave Atlanta within
twenty-four hours. This man must
leave here within an hour. If he
doesn't, shoot him." Ever since tho

"Old Exception," and the reporter
