Aokmt Pmkstucy Makes His Karuar.—
Captain Thomas Priestley, agent of the
Yakima Indian reservation, has just
made his annual report to the secretary
of the Interior. It embraces the following
points: There are 277 children of school
age on the reservation, of which number
126 are attending school. The reser
vation containing 690,000 acres is the
abiding place of numerous scattered rem
nants of tribes which formerly inhabited
Washington and British Columbia. In
the reservation are 240,000 acres of arable
land. II is estimated that 9076 Indians
are attached to the reservation, but the
agent statea that his census, taken in the
year past, shows but 1676. The Indians
are engaged in stock raising and farming,
and, with the exception of a few old men,
are self-supporting. In the matter of civ
illxatten they are progressive, as isshown
by their desire to leave their blanket life
and secure bouses in which to live. Their
natures are yet barbaric, however, and
they last year killed two Indian doctors
with the Idea that they were doing noth
ing wrong. Infidelity to their marriage
vows is also strongly prevalent with them.
They have 26,000 acres under fence, many
Indians alone having aa high as 1000
scree under fence, and trouble is likely to
arise when an attempt is mede, under the
allotment act, to induce these men to re
linquish all but 100 acres. Captain Priest
ley suggests that while men be no longer
allowed to reside on the reservation sim
ply because they have Indian wive*, and
says that the Indians themselves object
to this.
Tdcxly Wmwi.-E. Meeker A Ca's
Puyallup Circular, of the 22nd, cautions
growers against premature picking and
says that hops picked in an Immature
state are of much less market value,
yield very much leas in weight and ap
proach that condition of being very near
ly worthless to the consumers. Early
picking inflicts a certain kiss, while a
later beginning brings a compensating
return even if some lows does follow, but
which is by no means certain to occur.
Meeker’s Hop Culture says: “A bop
when fully ripe and well-matured will be
well and compactly closed at the point;
it becomes harsh and crisp to the touch
and makes a rustling noise when clasped
in the hand. The seed will be bard and
of a dark, purple color. The color of the
bop will have changed from a greenish
cast to a bright yellow or golden. The
lupnline will be abundant not only at the
base of the leaf or carpel, but will extend
well out on the leaf; the little yellow
globules of Inpuline will show brighter
and larger than in an unripe hop.”
Tax Jt'av Dibaosikd.— The 11 braid
readers will remember that during the
month of May last Richard See was taken
from EUensburgh, by requisition from!
the governor of California, to Los Angeles
to answer the crime of murder alleged to
have been committed about eighteen
years ago in the latter place. Since that
time many inquiries have been made as
to the result of the trial. District Attor
ney Saively has just received a letter
from the district attorney of Los Angeles,
in which be says that Bee has just been
tried for murder in the first degree and
that the jury disagreed, standing eight
for conviction and four for acquittal. The
district attorney stated in his letter that
they had found new evidence ud that
they would be sore to convict him at the
• next trial. Fee remains in Jail without
bonds. It la not known when he will
have his next trial.
Four Shipmekt or Hors.—The first
car load of early bops was shipped from
Yakima to Milwaukee by Charles Car*
pen ter, Monday. Mr. Carpenter pur
chased them from the growers at 14 cents
a pound, delivered at the depot. He pro
nounces the quality excellent. Although
the crop on some of the ruches is light,
owing to a shortage of water, there will
bf fully as great a quantity for shipment
this year as last when upward of sixteen
hundred bales were disposed of to eastern
and English buyers. There are about
thirty-five acres more under cultivation
this year thu in 1888, which accounts
lor the aggregate yield being as great.
The hop picking in Yakima will com
mence in earnest next week.
Noam Yakima Bays “Hello!”— John
Lawrence, superintendent of the Sunset
Telephone ud Telegraph Company, as
sisted by L. Mac Leu, made a canvass of
North Yakima last week and secured
mors thu enough subscribers to warrant
the operating of a system of telephones in
this city. Mr. Lawrence, who was greatly
taken with tbe beauty, thrift and enter
prise of Yakima, said, previous to his
leaving lor the Sound, that be bad already
negotiated for the polee ud that within
two weeks after their receipt he would
have tbe wires up ud the system in
working order.

Smith, late steward ol “The Tacoma/'

with the travelling public, having been

Bates House, of Indianapolis, the Wind
sor, of New York, the Washington Park
dub, of Chicago, and the Hotel Del
Monte, of Monterey, California. Mr.
Smith is greatly pleased with his new
possession and is determined to give it a
reputation equal to that of any hotel in
(be west.
No CIUMOBW School Books.—J. 11.
Morgan, superintendent of public schools,
who was in the city during the principal
part of the week, said that the text books
now in use In the schools will be contin
ued, at least until such time as the courts
may decree otherwise. As any litigation
which may arise will take months to
settle, no apprehension need be feH on
tba part of school oOcan that the books
win be changed during the coming school
