which means the Red Road, who has recently ,
been married to Nr. Lone Elk, q dashing young
buck. There is little bit of romance about
shonkoo. Not long ago two sisters OF Charity
Visited their Agency, and were presented to
Spotted Tail during. their stay. He was well
pleased to meet them, and had a friendly
''talk'' With them at Col. A1t1ls' house. In thcc
course OF the conversation thev asked him II he
would like to give them Shopkoo to 20 and i've
with them in q convent &c said res, be would
like 1T ;ery much. Then they sent for Shonkoo
and asked her II she would Ike to 20; but she
remained silent, vouchsating no answer to Their
question, Her father urged her to speak, to
say yes; but still she was silent, and the inter
view thns Terminated. That night Shonkoo
efoped with Lone Elk, to whom she managed to
convey the intelligence that her father WA NJ
ABOUT to send her away. shonkoo is cousiderr1
quite pretty. She has good taste in dress Tor
. an !. !ndian woman, and understands English,

a HUSBAND WHO HATED. PETS.

Hfs5 10TH 7FfbnHe.
A very pretty woman went into the office OF
the Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty to
Animals on Tuesday afternoon, in tears and
great excitement, and bearing two dead doves
wrapped in q newspaper. She was accompanied
BY two lady friends, who were in state Of deep
sympathy. Her name, she said, was Mrs. A. 7.
Warner, and she resided at No. 319 East
Twenty-ninth street. ,LariDg the dead doves on
the table she told her story. Her husband had
an awful temper, and was very spitctul because
she kept so many pets, but indeed, shc said,
she had only these two doves, and three canarics
now. She used to keep siI. On Monday the
husband choked the white dove until It could
not eat, and on Tuesday morning, who1
Mrs. Warner Has feeding the little creatures,
he stepped up and wrung their necks, and
threatened to kill the canaries. Mrs. Warner
said when she begged him not to do so La
pointed pistol at her head and said ho would
shoot her. She admitted that she thought the
pistol was not loaded, but still 1t WAS not pleas
ant to be threatened. Would not Mr.. Bcryh do
something about it, for she did not want to
enter complaint against her husband in court!
When asked if her husband drank, Mrs. War
ner said no; be was "on1y ugly and 23 pears
old, and ought toknow better. The fact Isl, she
continued, =" like the birds a greal deal better
than like him, and that's the reason le acts
90" Mr. Bergh said he; would summon the
Jealous husband before him and reprimand him.
and then Mrs. Warner wrapped up her mur-
1ered pets, and departed to bury them, she said.

Very slow IN consummating their negotiations.
The rough weather experienced since the first oi
the month may hare some influence on this
hackwardncss. Few OF our loan agents have cx-
pected any improvement In business prior to
April, but by that date there Is strong expecta-
tton Of better times. Many wou|d-be-borrowcrs
arc hanging back for more favorable terms, If
business improves there will be q tendency to
stiftenfng in rates and terms a]l round. There
is no probability Of q more favorable time for
borrowing than tie present. Rates OF interest
Aare been gradually advancing since the first OF
the year, and the loans negotiated at per cent
are now few and far between. The tabular
statement below shows that payments have
slightly improved 1t is to be hoped that this
improvement will increase, and that the COM
plants which have been too often heard about
delinquents will become thing of the past
