THROUGH SLEEPERS, An Agreement to Run Through Sleop- ers from Chicago to San Fran- vl A San Francisco dispat says that a o tween the ( Cn & and Pullman company for running through sleapers and sparlor cars from San Feancisco to Chicago, commencing April 1st. This is a move which has not been gen erally lookad for, it having been supppsod by many that the Union Pacific would favor the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, while othars were confident that the Rock Island would be first choice, The matter is now so anged that in case of any railroad war through trains will be run from Chicago to San Fran- cigeo. This is undoubtedly tho shor ost route t Freancis and in all probability 8 will be. The Central Pacific now have no necessity for build- | 1ng a line to connect with the Sioux City & Pacific at some point in Nebraska, as had beon contemplated. The Northern Pacific are making des- perate efforts to secure control of the Wisconsin Central and also the Chicago & Evanston, by which means they would have direct connection with both Chi- cago and Milwaukee, 1t remains to be seen how the little scheme will work. SIDNEY DILLON, It is expected that Sidney Dillon will arrive in thia city to-morrow, and he will be waited upon by a party of gentlemen from Seward county, who de- sire a branch of the Union Pacific built across said county, and for which they propose to offer 75,000, e — HE DOCTOR'S DESERTS.

Tiik Swirr Srecivie Co,, Drawer 3, Atlanta, S STARVING INDIANS, Destitution at Poplar Creek Agency. eat Fowr Butorn, D. T., February 1 The condition of the Indians at the Pop- lar Crook and Wolf Point agencies is 8o devlorable that unless poudy relicf is afforded many of them will die from starvation. The allowance is so meagor that it is not suflicient in itself to keep them al Heretofores game has been plentiful in the regions along the Mis- gouri and Mills rivers, and the In- dians were able, with the lit- tle sistance they received from the government, to live with com- parative comfort, but mnow the game is all_destroyed, and the question has resolved itself to this. They must oither be fed by the government or starve, Of the 30,000 dogs in the pos- session of the Indians at Wolf Point one year ago not one is now left. In addi- tion to the dogs many of the ponies have been eaten and many traded off for food. Much the snine state of things exists at the Poplar Creck agency. 1t isa com- mon thing to see mothers of young girls going about after nightfall offering them to any one who will furnish them with the means of keeping themselves from starvation. Mr, Sny- der, the “agent, is doing everything 1 his power to relieve their distress, but his supplies are 8o limited that he can do but little. Men who were strong and vigorous a few menths ago are so reduced by hunger that they are scarcely ablo to walk, Women and children are gaunt and hollow-eyed from starvation.

NEW MOWEY, When the western man arrives in Washington, no matter from what part of thav vast territory known as “‘the west” he may come, his pocket-book, if he has one, will be filled witlathe muddy and dilapidated rags which cireulate out thero as United States currency. But the time he has been in this city a few days his purse will bagin to fill up, in change, with a kind of money to which he is quito unfamiliar, but iuwflich his soul takes immediate delight; crisp, fresh bills, just pulled from the presses of Uncle Sam, ro- vealing on their glaced surface the clear- cut lines of the engraver and the won drous, mazy, network of the eccontric lathe in all the exactness of modern art. The stranger immediately wonders what becomes of all the old money and is in- formed that it is redeemed daily at the treasury by the banks and citizens hero, for some of whom it is just a step across the street; and in the cash-room of the trensury itself, where the money is counted in the evening, ovening bill that ‘s in the least soiled or crumpled or torn is 1aid aside and an entirely new bill put in its place, Washington peoplo have thus become 80 particular about paper money that a dollar bill that would be considered highly respectable and clean in Omaha or Denver, is put aside by the fastidious Washingtonian to beexchanged at bank or treasury for a picture of Poca- hontas surrounded by dollar sigus, which would be framed as a rave engraving if it could reach “‘the west” untarnished. This causes the inquiry, why cannot the currency be good all over the conti nent? And I have an answer from an ¢ perienced employe of the treasury, who snys that banks would be glad to have the soiled currency redcemed at regular intervals is it were not for the express charges te Washington and roturn, If the government would pay this, or if packages of mutilated and dirty groen- backs would be taken back by the roads, the circulating medium of our poaple would be of a much more pleasant kind to handle; less sticky, loss ragged, less odorous, GENERAL CAPRON, The Japanese legation here occupies the large house buili by General Capron some years ago on N streot, and it was here a tow weeks since that I met this diatinguished traveler, who was the first to give the American idea to the Jap- anesa, and upon whom they have con- forred 8o many honors, tho latost being the Second order of the Rising Sun, a distinction which had never before been granted to a forei The parlors of this embassy are supplied with much small scoop of flour each week and a few pounds of beef each month compriso the issue to them, and they are so hungry that when the issuc is made to them they cutitall in a day or two. Several of u lave been found dead between ¢ lodgos at the agoncy, being so reduced by hunger as to be unablo to re- gias the recent cold weathor. Succor yuld be provided, and speedily, if they o to bo rescued from a terrible fato, Those are facts. Threo hundred fons of hay for the public animals st Fort Bu- ford, gathered by the labor of the troops, were burned by an incendiary on the night of Februury 4, leaving the post al- most entirely without hay. The deed was prompted no doubt by o desire on tho part of some one to sell hay to the grovernment at high prices, The Fate of a Passenger who Refused to Pay His Fare. Detroit Free Pross. Probably every railroad line of any con- sequence in the country has its “*spotters” to watch and set traps for conductors, and if she public has any feeling either way it is for the latter officials, This was shown a few days ago on a line running out of Detroit. A medium-sized, fairly dressed passenger set up the plea that he had been robbed, and begged the conductor to pass him free. The omeial looked him over carefully and replied: ““Your fare, or off you go!” The man whined aud begged but when he found that it was one or the other he produced a five-dollar bill to pay his fare. “Counterfeit!” said the conducter, as he handed it back. “*Why, man, that's as true a greenback as was ever made!” “Can't take it, pleaso!” “But that's all the money 1 have!” ““Then off you go!” “But, sir—but—!" The train was stopped between stations and the passenger backed off with many a muttered “‘sass word.” When the con- ductor entered the car half a dozen passengers tackled him with, indignant protests, and two or three almost abus- ed him for his rigid observance of the rule sir! Your fare, entlemen, he was a spotter!” was the answer to the storm of indignation, and iu ten seconds everybody in the car was applauding, — Closing out all our Ties and Scarfs at 7b¢ all round, Many of them are worth 2.

Farcoxs, Japanese furniture that is odd and bean- tiful, including a sev of chairs carved in the most deceptive imitation of bumboo. On the walls of the parlors hang many good pictures, the most striking being an oil painting by an American artist of the holy mountain in Japan, the one which appears so constantly on their fans and decorated articles, springing up 8,000 teet from a flat stretch of land all around, and capped with snow. Another picture by o Jupaaese artist, endeavdrs to repre- resent the antics of @ fish as viewed be- neath the water. 1t is very realistic. OF THE L Probably the residence of Count Carl Leovenhaupt, tho minister of Sweden and Norway, is as pleasant a place to cull'as any, The first thing to attract attenticn’ in the modestly furnished parlors is a painting of a very beautiful woman, which hangs opposito the door. 1t isthe Countess Loevenhaupt, and she herself will presently enter and entertain you until the arrival of her husband, while her two boys romp about her.
