On the 9Th of juno some more ''hos-
tiles" surrendered to Gen. Miles at the
Cantonment on Tongue river. Like all
the rest of the surrendered Indians the
forty lodges composing this body con-
sisted Of superannuated warriors with
scarcely sufficient strength to raise a
rifle, and squaws and papooses who en-
numbered active warfare against the
whites. All are capable, however, of
devouring government rations. As if
to show where these v%anquished red
skins came from, on the same day a
large body of Sioux stampeded a herd of
two hundred horses grazing at Miles
City, three miles from the post. The
herd was in sight of hundreds of armed
men and the Indians displayed consid-
cradle strategy in their movements. A
large number of them being dressed in
United States cavalry uniform they
formed by tours with the uniformed
savages on the outer lines, thus re-
sembling several companies of cavalry
on the march, and succeeded in getting
between the city and the herd before
the citizens discovered their identity.
Three companies of cavalry started in
pursuit of the thieves within a couple
of hours after the stampede, the citi-
zens of Miles City complain bitterly Of
Miles conduct with the surrendered
Cheyennes mentioned above. They
affirm that the General gives the savages
more privileges than the whites and
that they cannot even recover horses be-
longing to them when claimed by Mr..
Lo.

it Is not nor expensive than to be

more expensive at the first outlay, but
in the wear, quality soon tells and a
suit is soon saved. Tailoring is a
science and the true tailor is an artist.
Let us take for example Edward Ely,
the fashionable tailor of Chicago. He
has studied the human form as a sculp-
tor or an artist studies it. He knows
every line and curve, he knows how to
accommodate the clothing to the person
that every good point shall tell, and
every imperfection be hidden or soft

eye for color-no violent contrasts, no
discordant shades can be obtained from
,him-he would rather not clothe a man
at all than clothe him i'll. He has built
up an immense trade from the smallest
beginning by making his profession an
art, by devoting his whole time and
attention to the aesthetics of tailoring,
and in him, to-day, Chicago recognizes
that it has the possibilities of being. the
best dressed city in the Union. In his
trade, and out of his trade, Mr.. Ely
is the well bred, well dressed gentle
man, and it seems as though making
elegant habits for his customers had

Mr.. Thomas Sturgis, who drove into
town last night from his ranch, five
miles south of this city, reports that
the rain storm was much heavier out
there than here. He feared a hail
storm, and as it CHANGED that this gen.
tleman rode through the two heaviest
hail storms that eve passed i've this
section of country, and on the same
piece of road, it will be seen that his
fears were well grounded, although the
hail did not fall yesterday.

A Cornell University student had a
little filtration with a young lady on the
train from Ithaca to Geneva, n. Y, a
few days ago. At length he left her
side and went into the smoking car.
The lady missed her watch; told the
conductor; he said undoubtedly her
late companion had stolen it; brought
your Comedian to lady's presence;
young man denied the theft; lady be-
lieved him; conductor didn't and in
sisted on search; watch not found.
Here endeth the first chapter. A day
or two afterwards the young man re-
ceived a letter from Miss, of Wa
%terloo, expressing regret at being the
innocent cause Of his painful embarrass-
ment, and saying that on retiring for
the night II found my watch in a very
unexpected place." and explaining that
it must have got detached from the
chain when she put it in the neck of
her dress. The letter closes the second
chapter with this Z. S.: ''If you ever
happen to come to Waterloo, / should
be pleased to have you call" That
young mau will get into worse trouble
if he doesn't resist the temptation ia
| visit Waterloo.

OF Mrs. ex-President Grant this story
of transformations benevolence is told:
George S. Joyce of Unadilla served
faithfully through the war of the
rebellion, and early in President
Grants first term wa appointed 4
door-keeper at the capitol, or executive
mansion. He remained there until some
three and a half years ago, then sicken-
ed and returned to Unadilla, to linger
through the balance of life with con-
sumption. He lived some twelve or
fourteen months and died. While in
Washington he attracted the favorable
attention of Mrs. Grant. His fathers
family were in very limited financial
circumstances, and George was worth
nothing but an irreproachable character
and good name. Mrs. Grant, in some
way, knew Of these conditions, and
during the entire time that Mr.. Joyce
was lying sick in Unadilla she sent him
each month a check for 800 until he
died. There was never any buster
over the matter, and few people in
Unadilla know of it to-day"

The conduct of American women
while travelling in the old world is the

women who profess Christianity attend
the Sunday evening entertainments in
Germany and France. They crowd to
see the annual horse race for the Prix

visit such places as the Jardin Mabille.
Mrs. Munson says, too, that American
women are the worst gamblers at
Monaco.
