Some weeks ago 4 coppcr-coIored indi-
yidusl went , Davenport aud opesed al
Office, advertising himself as DR.. Josiah
Rogers. On the 2Ist Of November. q
stranger named John Wilkinson, from
Monmouth, Illinois, arrived in the city,
and meeting DIR. Rogers, hailed him
with .Hallso, Joe" The Coctor lodged
into a saloon, and Wilkinson followed,
took 3 good look q: the Indian, and said,
81 knoG you" He went cut. and meet
ing officer Martens. told MIN. he wanted
to talk with the Indian doctor in the
presence Of q white man. The two then
went into the saloon. There the stranger
confronted the Indian. He stated that
seven years ago he was q farmer, living
rear Columbus, Neb. One afternoon he
was at work in q field q quarter Of a
mile from his home, when he noticed
his wife ut the froat door waving her
hands; he seized his repeating rifle and
rushed for the house-indiny his wife
PROSTATE in a corner. He looked in the
window, saw an Indian holding his boy
by the hair, AID another Indian peeking
in a chest. lie fred at the Indian who
was holding the boy, and dropped him.
The other fed through the door, and
made for the prairie. The father fred
five shots ut the fleeing Indian, but failed
to hit him. That day the pioneers wife,
near confinement, died, from the effects
of fright. And Wilkinson swore to
Martens that the doctor he met on Front
street was the Indian who escaped.
More, he said that this Indian helped TO
skin a white man alive on Loup Fork. in
Nebraska, III 1856, and hat only six
years ago he outraged a white girl in the
same region. The doctor did not deny that
he was in Wilkinson's house, or that he
skinned q white man alive. as stated by
Wilkinson, but he did deny the rape.
When asked if he wanted the doctor ar
rested, the man replied that he did not.
He said Rogers was a son of Red Cloud.
Late in the afternoon IF the same day
the doctor left the city. Wilkinson had
a lad of 12 years with him, who, he says
is the very child that Rogers partner
was about to "scaIp" when he, the father,
came to the r~escuc-and the boy says he
remembers the incident perfectly.

As a Montpelier lady nimbly piled
her needle around the ragged edges of a
coat, which her "better half" had worn
at a prayer meeting the Sunday evening
previous, and was badly ripped down the
back, she remarked in that tone of phil

wives always employ: "John, If you
can't perform at a prayer meeting with
out throwing yourself around, bursting
off buttons, and tearing your clothes.
