A Remarkable Frontier Tragedy.

FORT ROBINSON, NEB., July 3O.-The
particulars OF an unfortunate affair
caused by love, jealousy and revenge,
which occurred at Pine Ridge Agency
day before yesterday, have just reached
this place. 1t appears that two brothers
named Billy and Johnny Provost, en-
ployed at the agency, the former as
stock superintendent, became enamored
of beautiful Indian girl named Soet-
tewa (Little BirdD, daughter OF Eagle
Wing, a sub-chief in Red Clouds band
of Sioux. Before giving his onsent, as
is the custom among lndi ms, Eagle
Wing demanded a horse as the price OF
his daughters hapd III marriage.
Billy Provost not having horse to
give, consulted an Indian, who gave
him horse as his own which in reality
belonged to man named Clement Ber-
nard, who, unknown to him, was also
suing for the affections of the dusky
maiden. Following the Indians advice,
he took the animal and delivered it to
Eagle Wing, and was about to take his
prize when Bernard appeared on the
scene, claiming his property and putting
stop to further ceremonies. Provost,
after finding out that he had been de-
ceived, and being elected from the lodge
by the chief, seized with grief and re-
morse, placed pistol to his head and
blew his brains out.
John Provost, the interpreter, on
learning of his brothers. suicide, sought
out the Indian who betrayed him and
Bernard, his rival, intending to kill
them. Finding both in the agents
office, he deliberately and without warn
ing opened fire on them, killing Bernard.
Several Mexicans, countrymen Of, the
murdered man, surrounded the murder
er and would have lynched him had it
not been for the prompt action of DR..
McGillicuddy, the Indian Agent, who
sent him under a guard of Indian sol
diers to the military guard-house at
Camp Sheridan, where he now awaits
the action of the civil authorities. -Chi-

A Boys Old Cart.

Give any boy saw and hammer and
he will make cart to please him better
than the costliest vehicle ever turned
out. The wheels won't be true circle,
but that fact won't bother him bit.
Rusty ten-penny nails will make excel
lent linch-pins nd an old soap.box is
"body" to- ,e proud of, especially if
the brand on it was stenciled with red
paint. The tongue is made of an old
broomstick or the limb of tree, accord
ing to the state of the old broomstick
market, and no time is wasted in calcu-
lating curves and angles. A shingle
nail will hold handle in place, and the
cart is ready to hold the big boy of the
neighborhood, whose "horses" are to
be the little boys. 1t is a proud mo-
ment in the life of the builder and own
er of that cart when "she' is first run
out. Future Presidents gather to COM
ment on the workmanship, and declare
it boss, and the convention" nearly
always reaches the unanimous conclu-
sion that nothing is lacking unless it be
some blue paint on the handle. The IA
vorite boys of the neighborhood are ready
to sacrifice pride and position to draw
that cart the first time, and when the
big boy has gathered up his lines and
made ready there is dash down the
walk which may leave wheels here and
there, and end up in general wreck,
or prove the staying qualities of rusty
old nail driven home with stone or a
fiat-iron.
The man who has been boy without
a boys homemade cart never more than
half enjoyed his boyhood days. He
might have succeeded in getting his kite
up, but what is kite-fying compared to
front seat on cart " humping" along
the walk at the rate of five miles an

Care of the Hair.

Prof. Wilson, of England, is the high
est authority on the hair. He condemns
washing it, and advises, instead, thor
ough brushing. This promotes circu-
lation, removes scurf, and is, in all re-
spects, better than water. Cutting the
hair does not, as commonly thought,
promote its growth. Most of the speci-
fics recommended for badness, not ex-
cepting petroleum, are mere stimulants,
and are seldom or never permanently
successful. Some of them give rise to
congestion of the scalp. When stimu-
liant is desirable, ammonia is the BEST
1t is safe. For falling out of the hair,
DR.. Wilson prescribes a lotion composed
of water of ammonia, almond oil and
coloroform, one part of each, diluted
with five parts alcohol, or spirits OF
rosemary, the whole made fragrant with
dram of oil of lemon. Dab it on
the skin, after thorough friction with the
hair brush. 1t may be used sparingly or
abundantly, daily or otherwise. For a
cooling lotion, one made of two drains
of borax and glycerine to eight ounces
of distilled water is effective, allaylng
dryness, subduing irritability, and re-
moving scurf. Both badness and gray
ness depend on detective powers of the
scalp skins, and are to be treated alike.
What is needed is moderate stimulation,
without any irritation. The following
is good: Rub into the bare places daily,
or even twice day, II liriment OF CAM
phor, ammonia, chlorolorm, and aconite,
equal parts each. The friction should
be very gentle.

"A GRANDMOTHER" in the Rural
NeaU Yorker tells how she treated the
convulsed baby of frightened young
mother, using, among other things, bur-
dock leaves. "Burduck leaves are q
grand thing to use with children and
grown-up children, too. l would never
be without them in the house; they al
lay inflammation and ease pain so
quickly. If they had not been 50 use
tul, God would never have spread them
plentifully around every house, so that
they could have been gathered readily.
For toothache, neuralgia, and sore
throat, they are also good. If
green, you want to wilt them on the
stove before applying; if dried, warm
and soften them with warm water or
vinegar"

could have taken in such a scheme; would
have set out to realize such doctrine by
making himself the victim; and could
have spoken of all these things so calmly,
so sweetly, oprofoundly-with that evi-
dent consciousness of authority?
Just before this conversation about his
mother and brethren, the Scrlbes and
the Pharisees had asked him for sign,
and he answered them, can evil and
adulterous generation seeketh after a
sign, and there shall no sign be given it,
but the sign of the prophet Jonas; for as
Jonas was three days and three nights in
the whales belly; so shall the Son of
Man be three days and three nights in
the heart of the earth" He is never at
a loss for the right thing to say; and OBJ
serve how loftily the meek and lowly one
addresses them, as if he had come from
another woodland mot as the Scribes ="
Just in the most Incidental way he al
ludes to his death, and tells them that
that was the only sign he would give
them.
And then how finely he adds: "The
men of Nineveh shall rise up in judg-
ment with this generation, and shall con-
denim it; because they repented at the
preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a
greater than Jonas is here.
THE queen of the South shall rise up
in the Judgment with this generation !;
for she came from the uttermOst parts OF
the earth to hear the wisdom Of Solomon;
and, behold, a greater than Solomon is

We have spoken from time to time Of
the great changes in India. Similar
changes have been inaugurated in Japan.
The country is indeed rapidly becoming
Europeanized. We observe in an ex-
change, after referring to the inspection
of the militia of the country (6617076
menl, the remark that Colonel Murata
of that country has invented rife
which is considered stronger and better
weapon than the Snider." A rifle fac
tory has been commenced on the arsenal
grounds in Toxic. Sheep were imported
for the first time into Japan few years
ago, and now factory for the manufac-
ture of woollen cloth has just been erected
in the suburbs of Toxic The spread Of
Christianity in Japan during the last
seven years has been remarkable. There
are now forty-three Protestant churches
in that country, with membership Of
one thousand five hundred. There are
ffty-four Sunday Schools, with two thou
sand scholars; three theological schools,
with one hundred and seventy-fve stu
dents; eighty-one missionaries; ninety
three native assistant preachers, ten. ma
tive pastors, and one hundred and fifty
preaching places. In addition to the dis
tinctively religious work, large number
of secular schools are carried on by Chris
tan preachers. The old religions are
said to be dying out, and the priests have
lost the respect and confidence of the
people. But along with the Sunday
Schools, we are told that the materialism
of Europe, and the views of such authors
as Spencer and Huxley and Mill, are
widely disseminated among the educated
classes.
