A Bloody Spot.

The store of Dawson's Tie Camp
still presents the same CHASTITY appear
ance that it did after the deadly en-
counter between Ryan and Cowan. No
one dares to go inside the building if
any way superstitious, and the CORY
marks of the fatal struggle are still
seen in every part Of the room. Cowan,
after receiving the fatal blow from the
already death-stricken Ryan. crawled
out through the door, leaving the marks
Of his bloody hands oil the floor, door
and step, to where he died, the spot
being still marked by blood. 1t is a
spectacle well calculated to chill the
stoutest heart and sicken the strongest
nerve. 1t was the scene Of q terrible
settlement of a deadly feud, and where
the lasting hatred of two lives was
quenched in their own blood; where
two strong men met in their death
struggle, and, refusing to yield, at last
laid down and died within a few yard:
Of each other, and within an hour:
time.

Some four years ago an Indian
known as "The Whip" murdered a
soldier at an Agency on the Missouri
river. He eluded pursuit for a long
time, but was finally captured, and is
now at Sheridan, Pennington county,
Dakota, awaiting his trial before Judge
Bennett.
The facts connected with this case
are somewhat interesting, for the
reason that the prisoner will, in all
probability, be found guilty and hung.
They are these. Four years ago
Whips child was taken sick, and he
applied to Il hospital steward for medi-
cine. 1t was obtained and administer
ed according to directions, but the
child died, and Whip, thinking the
steward had given him poison for his
child, visited the hospital and killed
the steward by stabbing him in the
neck.

Foolish Advertising.

Fence advertising cannot be too en-
phatically condemned-tol characterize
it as vile is scarcely to do it adequate
Justice. 1t is primarily Objectionable
because it brings the manufacturers
we wish to advertise into doubtful
company on the public highways; and
every prudent business man must know,
if he has given to his advertising the
careful attention it deserves, that the
money devoted to papering fences is
utterly wasted. We know a gentleman
who expends $50, 900 annually for adj
vertising, but you cannot find his name
on the fences: he is the best advertiser
in the country, but there is nothing
comical or grotesque about his way of
doing business.
The glaring poster neither inspires
confidence nor conveys the information
desired; and if you would make
the best possible use of your money in
giving publicity to your claims of man
ufacturers you must patronize able and
responsible newspapers. The newspa-
per is UNNECESSARILY the best medium
open to the trade; the most liberal and
expert advertisers testify to its value;
and in the employment of its columns
you would find a means of escape from
the wasteful, undignifed and Intellectual
methods to which so many now resort
in their eager desire to secure atten-
ton and patronage.

Stealing a DoQ's Dinner.

A day or two ago a lady was seen to
come out of her house with a plate OF
scraps of bread and meat from the
breakfast table, which she emptied
upon the walk. Her little dog was at
hand and promptly charged upon the
pile, with the evident purpose of devour-
ing it. The lady watched the dog a mo-
ment and then withdrew.
Just then a veteran tramp, gray
haired and decrepit, whose face is we'll
known to our saloon keepers, rounded
the corner and approached the dog.
Noticing the cold victuals, which were
rapidly disappearing, the old man
seized Il stick, drove the dog away,
gathered up the few remaing fragments
of bread and meat, placed a portion in
his mouth and the rest in his pocket,
and sneaked away.

SITTING BULL BANlsHED.
The Canadian Government
Makes a New Treaty With
It's Indians,
BY the Provisions Of Which Sitting Bull Is
Driven From the British Possessions
He Crosses the Line.
Especial Telegram to The Lcader.I
Fort SHAW, MONTANA. Oct. A,
Via Helena, Oct. 5.

FORT SHAW, Cct. =,
Via Helena, Oct. 8.
Your correspondent has just con-
cluded an interview with Mr.. Freder-
ick Bensnider, a veteran scout and
trapper, who arrived here to-day direct
from Fort Walsh, in the British Pos
sessions.
MI. Bensnider states that on Septem-
Der 18th, Major Walsh, commanding
the Canadian Mounted Police, held a
grand council with the Piegans, North
ern Black Feet and A~ssiniboines, and
concluded Il new treaty with these
Indians, the main provision of which is
that these Indians shall at once compel
Sitting Bull and all the disaffected In
dams from the United States who have
recently crossed the line and rallied
around him to- leave the British Pos
sessions.
Tie Canadian Indians also agree to
keep this ACKNOWLEDGMENT out of Hell
Majesty's territory hereafter, and if he
or any of his band ever cross the line
again they bind themselves to follow
them up and kill them.
In accordance with the provisions OF
this treaty or agreement, the Piegans,
Black Feet and Assiniboines dispatched
u delegation of chiefs to Sitting Bulls
camp on the evening of the 18th, and
on the morning of the 18th Sitting
Bull and his band broke camp and
moved rapidly across the line, followed
by Il strong force of the Canadian In
dams, and a detachment of the
Mounted Police.
Mr.. Bensnider also reports that a
short distance south of the line Sitting
Bull met several runners from the Ne2
Perces, and sent them back with a
message to Chief Joseph that he would
shortly join him and council with him
as to their future operations.
Sitting Bull has, it is said, heard that
Gen. Miles, with all available troops, is
moving toward him, and he threatens
to effect a junction with Joseph, exter'
inmate Miles, and then return across
the line and wreak vengeance npon the
British by raZing Fort Walsh and
~massacreing the garrison.
Your correspondent has commune
Gated this information to Gen. Terry,
who is taking measures to speedily in

Boschee's German Syrup can now be
purchased right at home; it is the most
successful preparation ever introduced
to u people. 1t works like a charm
in all cases of consumption, pneumonia,
hemorrhages, asthma, severe coughs,
Group and all other throat and lung
diseases. No person has ever used this
medicine without getting immediate
relief, yet there are a great many poor,
suffering, skeptical persons going about
streets with a suspicious cough and
the voice of consumption coming from
their lungs, that will not try it. If
you die, it is your own fault, as you
can go to the druggists, Addoms &
Glover, and get a sample bottle for 10
cents and try it; three doses will relieve
any case. Regular size only 75 cts. s2tf
