Log drivers who are down from the Leech lake region give | the following account of the affair that was heralded as another out- baeak, and they have the story from the prophet: himself. This Indian, who is old. was walking in the woods one day, when he thought he heard someone yell. He looked to right and to the left, but perceived nothing that could have made the noise. On happening’ to look up, however, he noticed a black cloud hovering over his head from which the voice of the Great Spint spoke, saying unto him: “Oh, thou faithful Bug-Some- Dam -Thing-or- | Other, go thou and gather the faith- ful of thy tribe and remove them with their squaws and papooses and other chattel to the point called Stony in the Lake of the Leech, fer six suns from the date of this notice, I will without, further warning, send a cy- clone of fire and wind which will de- stroy all people who have not taken refuge on the point above mentioned.” Old Bug communicated the words of the Great Spirit to the men of his tribe, who hastened to the spot indi- cated. The cyclone did not come on the dates announced, butthe prophet says it will be here on the 27th sure, We are indebted to Martin Dufficy, chiet of records of the Order of Red Men, for the translation of the Great Sprrit’s language.
