Col. Miller while at the Indian treaty ground, near
Fort Laramie, finding that the Sioux indians had
some difficulty in selecting chief whom al! the
lands would obey and sustain, proposed that he would

dent would approve of the choice To the PROPOSE
ton they assented and he nominated Nah toe wah-
yu-whey, the Frightening Bear, who addressed COL
Miller, on the occasion, in substance as follows
"Father, ] am young man and have no expert

1ne Lovers
There was q candle maker man.
And he was very old,
For it was thirty years more
Since he began to mould.
His business on his face was wrote,
As plain as though on paper;
His long nose, running to point,
You sure would call taper.
And famelike glowed his jolly tip,
For drinking hard, and stuffng
Had made it red, and candle like,
1t brighter grew by SnnDfag.
A daughter fair he had, but he
Was wont to beat and starve her;
Said she, Pm sorry he's my pa,
But wish that he was farther
And Cupid in her tender heart
An arrow dared to throw;
As that alone would be no use,
But when her lover claimed her hand,
The father did dispute:
Said he, g Your ashes would take.
But | reject your sutt'
So when the shades of night were spread,
He round the house would hover;
And though he was no warrior, yet
He was mightty lover.
My fathers coming cried the maid;
'Oh lover, woe betide you
For he will cane you, I'm afraid;
But come with me- I'll hide you
So in the boiler he was crammed,
His legs all cramped and bent;
Cried he. 's1 have the copper got,
Though he has not the SCENT
And there he passed the slecpless hours
Of that eventful night
The time it passed so heartily,
He wished that it was light.
At early dawn, to light his fire
The cross old fellow came;
Alas for lovers constancy-
He felt another flame.
Oh maiden, maiden, could you now
Your lovers plight but see,
Your pa, for lovers sake, would hate,
For pa-boiled he will be-
Oh now within that boiler hot,
His every limb seemed frying;
His situation, you will say.
Indeed must have been trying.
Now from his seat he starts, and scared
The old man not little;
Recover first yourself. old man,
Re-coUer then your kettle.
And speeding through the garden walks,
The outer gate he won
Sure after such melting down,
| wonder he could run.
