SpcUal Uispatcli to THE UIK
CIUCAOO , Juno 5 , 4 p. m. The
day'is warm and sultry. There is an
? immenao crowd ill attendance , it be-
{
J ing generally believed to ba the last
ft
day of this momentum convention.
The delegates were lite in pult-nj ; in
an appearance , though none of the
delegates seem any worse for yester-
day'a tire long sessions. The Kansas
contest was taken up. The majority
report favors ousting the sitting mem
bers. Debate ivat limited 20 minutes
on ouch fide.
Tbo convention voted to accept the
majority report on Kansas , admitting
f' tKe ten delegate ] to seats , allotting the
" 'State but six votes.
„
A delegate has demanded the call of
states on the question.
The call of the states on the acceptance -
j
* ' -ceptanco of the majority report on the
Kansas question resulted in 470 ayes
.f to 184nays.
The motion was then made that the
minority report of the committee on
credential } , Heating the two contest
ants from West Virginia , be adopted.
Carried.
Tho'quottion of the contesting dele
gation from Utah was then taken up
L.- ' and elicited considerable debate. The
minority report in favor of admitting
the contestants on place of the sitting
members was nnaliy adopted.
The report of the committee on
rnles and the order of business was
taken up. As previously telegraphed
. - the report recommends that when
the vote of the state is cast for a can
didate it cannot be changed on the
ballot excepting in the case of a nu
merical error. The report further
recommends that ten minutes bo allowed -
lowed to the parties representing each
candidate for president.
f A MOVE TO BALLOT.
The monotony of a dull and unin
teresting session of the convention was
suddenly and unexpectedly broken up
by General Sharpe introducing a resolution
elution the convention immediately
proceed to billet lor president and
vice-president , allowing fifteen min
utes forpresdntation of each candidate
and ten minutes for oeconding the
nomination.
An excited debate followed in which
Gee. Garfield p'xrticipated. The con-
Tentiou finally rejected the motion to
ballot , Sharpe demanding the states ba
called on his motion. The real calrof
the states resulted in the defeat of the
motion by a vote of 489 to 270.
Garfield made a point of order ,
which was not sustained , that the convention -
, vention must first dispose of thfc re
port of the committee on rules. Garfield -
field opposed the adoption of the reso
lution until the rules were adopted.
The report of the committee on rules
being now baforo the convention the
chairman recognized Garfield , who in
quired of the minority how much
time they desired for discussion.
Sh&rpef NW York , would be
satisfied with GarSeld'rt suggestion if
he chofo to make one. Garfield moved
the adoption of the report of the com
mittee on rules. The majority and
minority reports were then read.
Sh&rpe spoke against the adoption of
the unit rule , and said the battle was
ready. All had been obtained that
can be obtained.

CHICAGO , June 6 , 10 p. m. Previ
ous to the rojcsj this afternoon , , the
committee on resolutions , through
Mr. Picrreponr , presented the resolu

they had -Tjablelp--ajiPa , nrcoug
tlifwiselvysfAfl not rliatnrblf'iS ! fat- ,
mo'ny of the 'convention. The reso
lutions are as folluwj ;
The republican patty , in national
convention assembled , at the 'end of
twenty years since the fodcr.il govern
ment was firat committed toils charge ,
submits to the people of the United
Slates this bri-f report of its adminis
tration. It suppressed a rebellion
which had armed nearly a million
of men to subvert the national author
ity.
Itrsconshuctud tha union of the
stetes with freedom instead of slavery
as its corner stnno.
It transformed four million of liu-
min beings from the likeness of things
to the rank of citizens.
It relieved congress from the infa
mous work of .hunting fugitive slaves
and charged it to sou that slavery doea
nut exist.
It has rased the value of our paper
currei.cy from 38 per cent , to the par
of gold.
It has ret > rcd , upon a solid basis ,
payment in coin a'l the national obli
gations , and has given us a currency
abiolutely good an-l legal and quil
in every pirt of our extended country.
It Ins lifted the credit of the intion
from thepoiut where six per cent ,
bonds sold at 80 to that where four
per cent , bonds are eagerly sought at
a premium.
Under its administration railways
have increased from thirty-one thou
sand miles in 18GO to moro than
eishty-two thousand miles in 1879.
Our foreign trade has increased
from $700,000,000 to § 1,150,000,900
in the sarao time , and our exports ,
which were 820,000,000 less than our
imports in 1800 , were 8204,000,000
more than our imports in 1879.
Without resorting to loans it hai ,
aincu the war closed , defrayed the or
dinary expenses of the government ,
b sdes the accruing intercit on the
public debt , and diaburtod annually
more than § 30,000,000 for soldier * '
pensions.
It has'paid $383,000,000 of the
public debt , and by refunding the bal
ance at lower rates has reduced the
annual interest charge from neatly
§ 151,000,000 to low than § 39OOO.OC J.
AH the industries of the country
have revive'd , labor is in demand , wa-
gcj have increased and throughout the
entire country there is evidence of a
coming prosperity groiter than we
have over enjoyed.
Upon this record the republican
party asks for thecontinned confidence
and support of the people and the con
vention submits for their approvcHho
following statements of
THE PBINCirLES AND rDEPOSES
which will continue to guide and in
spire its efforts.
1. We affirm that the work of the
last twenty-one years has been such &i
to commend itself to the favor of the
nation , and that the fruits of the cost
ly victories which we have achieved
through immense difficulties should
bo preserved ; that the peace regained
shouldbe cherishedthat ; the dissevered
union now happily restored should bo
perpetuated , and that the liberties secured -
cured to this generation should bo
transmitted undiminished to future
generations ; that the order established
nd the credit acquired should never
bo impaired ; the pensions promised
should bo paid ; that tbo debt so much
reduced should be extinguished by
the free payment of every do'"ar ' there
of ; that the reviving industries should
be further promoted and that the com
merce already so great should bo stead
ily encouraged.
KATIONAI. AND tTATE KldllTS.
2. The constitution of the United
States is the supreme law and not a
mere compact of confederated states ;
it WLS a sovereign nation ; some pow-
era are denied to the nation , while
athen are denied to the states , but
the boundary between powers dele
gated and those reserved is to be de
termined by the national and not the
state tribunals.
POrDLAE KDDCAriON.
3. The work of popular education
9 one left to the cr.ro of the several
itates , but it is the duty of the na
tional Government to aid that work to
: he extent of its constitutional ability.
The intelligence of the nation is but
the sggregato of the intelligence in
: he several states , and the destiny of
: he nation must bo guided , not by the
genius of any one state , but by the
iverage cf all.
OPPOSITION TO SECTARIANISM.
4tb. The constitution wisely for-
} ids congress to make any law respectIng -
Ing an establishment of leligiou , but
1 is idle to hope that the nation can
3o protected against the influence of
lectarianism while each state is ex-
) osed to its domination. We thero-
: ore recommend that the constitution
jo so amended as to lay some prohi-
lition upon the legitliture of each
itate , and to forbid the appropriation
if public funds to the support of sec-
lariau schools.
REVENUES , SUBSIDIES , POLYOAMT , ETC.
5. We reaffirm the belief avowed
in 187G , that the duties levied for the
purpose of revenues should so dis7 *
: riminate as to favor American labor ;
that no further grant of the public
lomain should bo made to any rail
way or other corporationjihat slavery
[ living perished in the southern etates ,
its twin barbarity , polygamy , must
3ie in the Urritories ; that everywhere
the protection accorded to a citizen of
American birth must bo secured to
: itizens by American adoption ; that
it is thcVluty of congress to improve
md develop our water courses and
larbow , but insist that further sub-
tidies to private persons or corpora-
; ioos must ceaze ; that the obligations
> the men who preserved our coun-
ry's. integrity 10 the day of battle are ,
undiminiahed by the lapse of fifteei
years since their final victory.
THE CUINESL.
Gth. Since the authority to ru ulati
immigration intercourse between thi
United St tej and foreign nations rent ;
with the congress of the United State
and ita treaty powers , that the repub
lican party , regarding the unrpstnciet
immigration of Chinese as an oil o
magnitude , invoke the exercise of tin
power to restrain and limit that im
migration , that the exactmentof just
humane ai.d re-isomble provisions a
will produce that result.
rilESIDKNT HAYES.
7th. That parity md patrictisn
which charasttriz-s the earlier careei
of KutherlorU U Hayes , in peaca ano
in war , and which guided the though !
of our immediito prcdnccssors to h'li
for a presidential cjndjdate , have con

FAST TIME TO THE EAST ,
Dhe Time Between Omaha and
Chicago Likely to be
Eeduced.
The readers of TUB BEE were re
: ently informed that the Baltimore
nd Ohio had commenced running
ast train ? , which inado Washington
, nd other points several hours in ad-
ancc of all other lines. A few days
go the Pennsylvania line put on a
ast express , which makes the dhtanco
letwecn Chicago and New York in 28
lours. This , aa was anticipated , has
auscd the other eastern lines to To1.-
aw suit , as will he seen by the follow-
ng from The Chicago Tribune :
The mana era of the Michigan
Icatral and Like Shore roads intend
o follow the example of the Fort
Vayno and Baltimore & Ohio rail-
Dads and also put on fast trains ,
'hey contemplate starting the fast
rains to-niorrow evening , unless con-
rary orders should be loceived from
rewYorkto-day. BoththoLake Shore
nd Michigan Central fast trains will
uvo hero at 5 p. in. and reach
few York the following evening at
:30 , making the same time m the
'ort Wayne fast train. There is con-
idcrablo excitement annng the var-
> us Eastern roads on account of this
ist-train muddlo. The Vandorhilt
oads were very reluctant about run-
ing fast train' , having learned froai
revious experience that they are of
o benefit. Tbo fast trains
n all the E.istem roids except
10 Baltimore & Ohio are run in
ddition ta the regular train ? , and
onsequontly entail a heavy expense
pen the roads. Efforts are now being
lade to bring about an arrangement
itli the western roads by which the
cgular trains now leaving hero for the
ast at 5:15 can bo run as fast trains
y allowing them to leave here
ffo or three hours earlier , in which
vent the extra trains can bo
iKen off again. To accomplish this
ie western roads from Omaha
nd Missouri river ponts ; will have to
ot in here at about 2 o'clock p. m ,
istead of 4 o'clock p. m. , cj at prcs-
nt , which they can do very easily ,
lest of the managers of the .western
jads have signified their willingness
) enter into such arrangement , and
; is very likely that the compromise
ill be effected within a few days.

Special Dispatch to The B .
CHICAGO , Juno 0 10 p. m. Thi
has been the buseL.t day of the wholi
week , there being great excitement
Hotel lobbies were crowded and then
was a vr" t amount of caucusing durim
tl-H afternoon , and no end of calcula
tions an to the result of the balloting
to-morrow. BfMoting wi'l ' begin a ;
soon as the session commences , tbi
only business now remaining being tc
nominate candidates.
LEADEIW1 TALK.
Speculation u r.fo as to , the result. .
Logan says there is a big surprise ii
store for the anti-Grant men. Blaim
leaders say they are sure to nominate
their man , that the Sherman men wil
sea that thor : cose is hopolcia anc
wi 1 come over to Blaine oa the first
break. - >
Sherman men say that Grant ant
Blaine will use each other up and tha1
Shrrmau is the cccoud choice of i
majority of both factions.
KILLING WA3U.BUKNE.
One of the rumors is that the Gran
meu will endeavor to have Washburn
arrive in the morning , and propose , i
possible , to get from , him such a dec
laratiou of his determination not tc
accept the nomination in any evout a
will put him out of the question. I
is asserted that in cage this is accom
plislicd Grant's friends may bo able
if circumstances should require , tc
use their united power and name the
succ--sful man. With Washburne h
the field It willba impassible for them
to do thin , ai pirt of the Grant meu
have made up their minds to supper
Washburne , but Conkling and oth'ers
will never do so.
ANYTHING TO BEAT BLAINE.
Senator Hoar and others of the
Massachusetts delegation have re
ceived numerous dispatches from con
stituents urging them to prjvent the
nomination of Blaino. These dis
patches are mostly from men of the
moat pronounced kind when ho was
considered far in the lead , but being
also opposed strongly to Blaine , have
bscome alarmed at the advantage the
Maine senator has received by the un
seating of Grant and sjatinp ofJBlaine
delegates. The uinetoiu .New York
bolters held several informal talks to
day but agreed on nothing , except thai
the opposition to Grant is to continue.
Edmunds men have been getting
good work in to day. They are buoy
ant in spirits and rely on a big lift
from Conkling as soon as the silent
aoldier is out of tha fight. Edmunds
stock has taken rather an upward
shoot.
GRANT MEN TO STICK.
The Grant men have been doing
aarnest silent work to-day. They pi-
sort that he will receive a vote of over
three hundred on the first ballot , and
trill hold his own en succeeding bal-
loti , and when the southern and other
delegates feel that they have dis-
: hirged any duty required by in-
itruclions they will take a shoot for
ward and will continue to increase
the number until they nominate.
They claim that after the necessary
rote , according to instructions , that
3rant will begin to profit by the in-
llvidual choice of the delegate ? , and
; hat the repeated efforts of the friends
) f other candidates to establish the
right of delegates to vote according to
ndividual preference , will react to the
Benefit of Grant , because he is more
videly known than any other. They
ook to offers of support from the B oi
lier element. *
FOOLISHNESS OF A BLAINE LEADEB.
Resentment was expressed over that
tart of Joy's speech on nominating
3Iaine where he said that the candi-
late ought to have the solid South in
i is favcr , ai he would certainly have
hc'North , for theSouthhad all to gain
nd nothing to give. Conkling was
[ uick to see the point. His speech
rai written in advance and proofs
rere in the hands of trusted agents
or distribution to the press after de-
ivery , but after listening to Joy's
peech he took advantage of the mis-
ike of the Blaine advocate reflecting
n the South , and departed from thereof
roof slip _ to crll attention to the
tatementand , there is no end of fight-
ig over it by southern members.
FIEST BALLOT PREDICTION.
On the first ballot Grant will have
00 votes , Blaine 230 , Sherman M5 ,
cattcring 65.
OARFIELD'S CHANCES.
CHICAGO , Juno 7,1 a. m. An In-
iana delegate says that the leading
ion of the Indiana and Iowa dolega-
ion have resolved to present Garfield
: a nomination is not reached before
tie fifth ballot. The same delegate in
lie matter of presenting Gen. Gar-
eld , Bays the question has been dis-
usscd with a half-dozen delegations
ho are favorable to it. Ohio men are
itler over this rumor , insisting that
: Ohio is to have their candidate ,
iherman must ba the man.
Among rumora afloatlaat night was
no that Grant has arrived in the city
nd another is that Jay Gould is here
1 the ieterest sf Blaine. Neither is
redited by those in a position to
now.
A GRANT FREE LUKCH.
It is stated that the Palmer House
as notified delegates that no change
ill bo made for their stay after to-
ly. The significance of this is in the
ehtiouship of the Grant family to the
wners of the house.
LIKELY TO ADJOURN TO-DAB.
A ri < ; nigcant fact as indicating the
robable length of the convention is
bat the New York delegation ha or-
ered its spcial car to be ready for to-
i3ht.
Gen. Stillwell , of the New Jersey
elegation and one of the members of
lie New York delegation tola a repor-
: r last night that they would Aote. { errant
[ rant op the second ballot
Filley , of St. Louis , siid , "We are
all right. Wo have got them. "
In the lobby of the Grand Paci6c
a patriarchal appearing , the
colored delegate was surrounded
all the evening by anti-Grant dele
gates who were trying to corner him ,
but when they woud ! make a point his
only reply wa ? , "I nevorsaw anything
about that and Grant is good enough
for me. "
LONG CAMPAIGN.
The position of the Grant men , ai
stated last night in an interview with
the agent of .National Associated press
by George Gorham , late ex-aearotaiy
of tha United State * senate , was : "Our
policy is a passive one ; we have come
here to vote for Grant bcciuso we ba-
lievo he is the strongest candidate ,
and we have no second choice. We
shall sit hero and vote for him till ho
w either defeated or nominated , if
ittakes till after next Novem
ber. Wo are not antagonizing
any other candidate and have p'edged
ourselyes to support the nominee who
ever he may be. If sufficient friends
of other candidate : > x. unit np-mrny
one man to giVe him majority in the
convention Grant will ba defeated ,
but wo must ba outvoted before wo
will give up , no one can tell that the
nomination may bo made Mondiy , or
the convention may run a week. It
depends entirely upon the course of
Maine's triondi and whether a success
ful combination can bo made upon
him or any other man.
BLAINK MEN'S iiorE.
William E. Chandler , Blaino's man-
agtr , when seen by the agent of the
National associated press , sain : "Wo
are well satisfied with the outlook to
night. "
-Reporter "la the ramor true that
B'aine will lead on the firat ballot ,
and will he , as claimed , ( ret in the
nei hborhocd of 318 votes ? "
Chandler "I am not willing to ex-
presi a positive opinion on that point.
Blaine may get moio than that or he
may get as few as 2SO. I do not believe -
lievo in making over-estimates We
dialiko bad enough to have to take
them down after a ballot. "
Reporter "How about therutmr
that you are arranging to have Bl line's
votes Uss lhau Grant's on the first
ballot ? "
Chandler "That is a leading question
tion , " laughing.
, Fryo last ni ht said the Bbiuo men
are more confident than at any previ
ous time. Us says ho wcut over the
whole situation carefully yesterday
morning , and ha eoju noting to
change the conclusion that has beeu
reached that Blame's chances wcro
excel'ent. Ho expects about 209
votes for Blniue on the first ballot. In
reply to an inquiry of where the addi
tional votes to nominate Blaine were
to come from , Fry j said ho would
not bo good management or goad taste
to announce in advance who wo ex
pect to coiuo to us , but you will see
our vote increase with ovo./ ballot till
a nomination is reached. Some who
desire to vote with us may bo held
back for a while , but wo have friends
enough favorable to Blame's nomina
tion to assure it on. Success is only
a matter of time after balloting is once
commenced.
LOGAN'S VKTKUAX THICK.
Logan's elaborate speech and bitter
attack upon the national committee ,
and demand that the vettrans bo
awarded five hundred tickets daily to
the convention , it now appears , was
part of a well-considered programme ,
which pliced the anti-Grant elements
opposition to the recognition of
veterans , for the anti-Grtnt combina
tion had over a two-thirds majority in
the national committee. The same
veterans have been working quietly
and steadily for Grant among southern
delegates.
The Massachusetts delegation [ held
a caucus { last evening , and were ad
dressed by Senator Hoar. Ho said
that Ao of the convention were
pgainst Grant , and advised the dele
gation to unite on Blaine , as he wa-i
the strongest man ; that Grant's
strength lies as much in the democrat
ic as in the republican party ; his nom
ination would result in the demorali
zation of the republ-can party. A
Grant menber of the Massachusetts
Jelegation Baid afterwards that Hoar
foresawvthat a majority of his delega
tion was going over to Grant , and he
jnly wanted to plao himself on rec-
jrd as having not taken the lead in
inch action.
Conkling said there was no change
in the situation since last Monday
morning and now , except that many
Jelegates had been found who will go
iirect to Grant on the second and
third ballots.
Whitelaw Kcid , editor of The New
Fork Tribune , expnss s the fullest

The General Make-Up of th <
Towns of Orleans and
Guide Eock.
Corccspondcnce of the Bee.
ORLEANS , Juno 2. The town o
Orleans , that attracted so much atten
tion a few years ago as the successfu
rival of Melrose for postoflicc am
townsito honors , has again tuddonl ;
appeared upon ths arana us a success
ful conlpatitor for the division termi
nus onSthe E. V. R. R. This is no
by any means the least contributor ti
ita present bustle and rapid growth
Twenty unpaintcd structures tell o
its rapid growth , and the increasing
number of stores and the unpreccdent
ed business of each speak for its en
hanced importance as a trading point
By the aid of 3,400 in precinc
bonds , its facilities of approach an
bsing improved through the buildinj
oi two largo bridges over the Republi
cm river , thus opening to it an im
mensa trade from Norton and Philip :
counties , Kansas. One of these bridg'
ca spans the river just two miles wcsl
of town on the Beaver City road , and
the othur one mile south from town ii :
tin direction of Philipsburg.
The important manufacturing es.
tabli-hmont * of the pi ice are a wagon
factory , two flour factories and a grist
mill. A large number of farm wag
ons are put up here , bcs'des some
buggies and other veh'clea. At the
plow factory of P. M. Moody the
grasshopper plow is made. This is an
invention by Mr. M. , and is such a
curiosity to ea-tern people that all in
terested in farm implements will du
well to call and so3 it.
The grist mill is operated with wa
ter power. A dam across the river ef
fectually holds the mighty stream at a
place where the banks are high till n
fall is obtained euflicient to turn half
a dozen sets of buhrs. The milt hai
been built tliruo joirs , is owned by
Cjyea & Olmstead , and is doing a line
business.
Several new hotels have beeu re
cently built , but the old houses have
the established trade. The Orleans
House it f uiniahed with a 1-irgo and
zommodioua sample room for the ac-
zommod ttinn of commercial men.
All the business men are doing a cred
itable trade ; and the prospect fora

ection of countrp , which h already
[ iiitc well settled. Lota of cattle and
logs to ship and fields of corn looking
fell are everywhere by the side of
he track. For years past this por-
ion of the country has furnished a
argo per cent , of the shipments from
ied Cloud. Now , the time having
omo when they wore bound to have
, road anyway , theB. & M. have sup-
ilied their wants , and the moans of
ransportation passes by the doors of
he ear'iest settled portion of the Re-
lublican river in Nebraska.
It is supposed that the intention ia
o continue the road eastward to a
rcssing of the Missouri river ac eith-
r Browiivillo or Nemaha City. This
oad will cross the St. J. & W. at
'airbury ' , and the A. & N. at either
'ecumseh or Table Rock. In any
aso it will be the only direct east
Dutc accommodating the southern
ier of counties in Nebraska , which
re all fertile and wealthy ; and it will
Dnio day become one of the trnnk
nes of the west , leading from Den-
er to Chicago. Even at this early
ay the development of this country
as proven very satisfactory. Fruit
: ocs have been planted with oncour-
Ting success. All kinds of small
uit grow in abundance , and it has
ever yet failed bringing forth a crepE
E some kind.
Guide Rosk , the fint town on .the
ne east from Amboy , is growing very
ipidly. Since my last year's visit it
crawled out of its fossil shell and
sgins to put on metropolitan airs.
[ early all the buildings in the place
re new , and an army of builders still
ontinuo to ply very assiduously
le hammer and saw. The railroad
epot is completed and ready for busi-
ess. The only trains now on the line
re engaged in construction work.
A. Garber lir.i erected a large store
uilding seventy feet long , and has
ransferred his stock of general mer-
liandise to the new quarters. Mr.
r. is one of the first settlers of Weber -
or county and a stauuch republican.
Irving Crary , who has formerly
sen a'sociatad with Me. Garber , hr.a
racted a fine building adjacent , ia
htch he will enter in a few days in
IB general merchandising trade.
Proudfit it Marsh have a well aa-
jrted stock of hardware , tinware and
; ovcs.
Joseph Westlakc has opened a rea-
kurant and confectionary.
Dr. J. W. Robinson has a neat lit-
q store full of dtugs , paints , medi-
ines. tc.
J. F. Evans keeps the msat market
ad reports a good trade.
A. A. Tyler keeps the Guide Rock
ouse. Mr. Tyler was formerly in tha
otel business at Pawnee City and un-
orttands catering well.
J. S. Marsh has purchased the lum-
er yard of Jones & Magee , and has a
kely trade in building materials.
Good turnouts are furnished at the
very barn of Wm. Sabin.
C. F. Allen keeps a lumber yard.

The reads ia this country are al-
ajs good and irood bridges are pro-
ided for moat streams where they are
eeded.
A good iron bridge spans the Re-
nil ican river one mile directly south
f the town , and people from below
ie Kansas line are every day seen
pen the streets. Trade has suffered
ut little from the dry weather , and
lose who were almost discouraged
egin to rally in spirits since the rent -
; nt showers.
One consoling feature in the sup-
ot of this town bars out the vas-
illating character that attaches to
lost of the towns in Nebraska , it is
ot dependent upon the success of
ay single interest.
Some are engagad in agriculture
some in sheep husbandry , some ii
raising various kinds of stock , am
some in grazing cattle.
North of the town about five mile :
are three largo flocks of sheep , on *

are warm and pleasant. The evening
are somewhat cool , as they genera ! ! ;
are throughout the summer , and a- -
Renoites and Xevadians in genera
need not spend sleepless nights on ac
count of sultry weather , as is so oftoi
the ca-o in eastern states. Our Ne

was very good indeed , and when shi
was bad she was horrid. " However

Wood sells for § 20 a coid , and a week

in new mining camps.
Two Omaha ladies left Reno recently

Neither his body nor the hones and
wagon have bei-n recovered.
Last Monday two Italians tried to
cross the river in a bjat near the lo
cality of the former accident. In
midstream the boat overturned , one
of the men managed to reach the
shore in safety , but the other was
borne down by the current and dis
appeared. His body has not been
recovered. The Truckeo river this
spring has been a turbu'ent ' stream

INDIAN DANCING.
There was a large gathering of In
dians on the flat bordering the south
side of the river on the outskirts of
lown last Tuesday evening. They were
mostly Wahoes and had assembled for
the annual spring dance , before going
to their summer camping grounds.
The dance commenced about 8 o'clock
by the light of the moon and a big
boil-fire. Half a dozen redskins join
ed htnds and formed a circle. A alow ,
monotonous chant was commenced ,
the singers keeping time by jumping
up and down with a sidling motion ;
the circle gradually enlarged by fre
quent accessions , and in the course of
an hour nearly a hundredlndians were
dancing. A number of visitors went
over from town to witness the ludic
rous spectacle.
NOTES.
Twelve naked Piutes will shortly
