Luverne, Rock county, was born in Defiance
O., Nov. 16, 1889. He lived in his native State
until Is years of age, attending the conn mon
schools and pursuing such employments as
usually fell to the lot of young lads in those
days. About this time he removed to Wiscon-
SIN, settled near New Lisbon and attended the
Delton academy, studied surveying, and in the
few years following, by dint Of hard work,
seif-denial and rigid economy, surveying and
teaching school, he managed to lay up 1900,
which nice little sum he lost soon after in a
hop speculation. Hops didn't prove bonan-
"a that year, 80 his finances went where the

having been brought in contact at various pc
rlods with the Sioux Indians, he became famil-
lar with their language and can talk .'ni-shin-

thoroughbred Sioux. Mr.. Kniss served fifteen
months IN the army. enlisting as a private in
tne flttleth Wisconsin, and was mustered out
reglmental adjutant in 1866. That season he
went to the Black Hills, staid two years and
came back, but not with his pockets full of
rocks. In April 1870, at Kilbourn City, Wis, he
OF that year he struck out for Minnesota, with
MS blanket, compass, empty pockets, a large
amount of resolution and stranger in strange
land. He made his way to jackson, thence
across the country to Rock county, in the
southwest corner of the State. Here, like an

vision, stretched this marvellous scene of bill

and beautiful river called Rock, fringed with
groves and vines and flowers, meandered along
its smiling valleys. He had we'll nigh reache
the goal of his ambition, and; he pinned his
faith there. On the river border he located
land, went out all over the county and plated
every quarter section, camping on the prairie
wherever night overlook him, until the work
was completed; surveyed, plated and located
the town of Luverne; picked out the
choice pieces of real estate, traded and

er. His original homestead is now merged into
the town site, and selling at several hundred
dollars a lot, and in addition he owns FIVE or
six hundred acres adjoining. August, 1876, in
company with o. D. Brown, he opened bank
ing house, and the past summer they erected a
bank building at cost of $1l 600. The town
now numbers permanent population of
about 1000 people, and the bank of Luverne
is one Of the stable and prosperous institu-
tlonsof that growing and highly important
traction of Minnesota. Some three years ago
Mr.. Kniss became connected with the county
bsard as its chairman. Her paper was then
worth 70 cents on the dollar; it is now at par.

THE PEACE COUNCIL.
eAruEnINe OF urE CHIEFS.
An Present Except, Ute Jack, Who
stilI Holds the Fort-Tany-
Talk ON the Part OF
the Red Devils.

Denver, Nov. 13.-A special from
Los Pinos states that the chiefs are
gathering there. Capt. Billy, Waro,
Piah and Cajos, all Uncompahgre Utes,
who were at White river at the time of
the massacre, and all enemies Of Ouray,
have come in and are now at the agents
office. Ouray requests that all news
paper men be excluded from the coun-
ellis. oa T
Later dispatches from Los Pinos to-
the Tribune represent that Gen. Hatch,
of the commission, arrived to-day. The
hostile chiefs, with the exception of
Jack, who is reported gone to the Uin-
tab reservation, are at Los Pinos, and
are willing to surrender. Jack peremp-
torily refused to come to the agency and
meet the commission. 1t has been de-
termined almost beyond doubt that he
led the hostiles in the Thornburgh fight.
Ouray held a long conference with the
hostiles Tuesday night, and told them
they need expect no mercy. johnson
is among the others at the agency. He
says that if he has done anything wrong
he is willing to expiate his crime-will-
ing to hang, if necessary. Johnson's
brother is represented as the man who
shot the two freighters between Milk
creek and the agency. They were laugh
ing and talking with the Utes when
shot down. He was afterwards killed
by Frank Dresser.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 13.-The an
nouncement of Gortschakoff's retire
ment from the imperial chancellorship
has caused no surprise here. But for
the German intrigue against him he
would have retired sooner. His per-
sonal dignity required, despite his i'll
health, that he should retain his Office
until the attacks on him had ceased.
The names of various persons are men
tioued in connection with his probable
successor. Even that of Gen. Ignatieff
is hinted at. Count Schouvalof does
not seem to have any chance as he is
believed to be in complete disfavor.
Owing to the efforts of parsonage
whose influence over the car is none
the less strong because Of its being un-
acknowledged, and exercised only in
private Palace intrigues are nearly as
common in Russia as in Constantine
pie. The story Of female enemies at
the Russian court overthrowing Schouv-
aloff are freely circulated and generally
believed in London.

The following item is from the Gale
donia IN. " Advertiser. This paper
has all along abused the western people
without stint for their treatment of the
Indians. Our readers will appreciate
the small sized souls of these New York
ers who indulge in lawsuits over three
dollars and seventy-nine cents. Com
ment is entirely unnecessary. Here is
the article:
A lawsuit between John Grant and
John II. Walker was tried before Just
ice w. III. Walker and jury last Satur-
day. The action was brought by Mr..
Grant to recover 1919 on meat bill
contracted by Mrs. Walker, Mr.. Walker
claiming that his wife had no right to
run him in debt for such luxuries when
there was plenty of salt pork in the
house. H. NJ Mcdonald. of Rochester,
appeared for the complainant, and W.
j. Byam, of ssBabble Brook" " for the
defendant. 1t seems the case was given
to the jury about noon, and they were
all hungry (who ever knew jury to
disagree on that point), and while his
honor and the counsel were RECALLING
themselves over good square meal
these gentlemen of the jury speedily
agreed on a verdict and dispersed to
their homes When the counsel got
back to the courtroom they had hard
work to find out how the case had gone,
but finally small boy informed them
that a verdict had been rendered in
favor of the complainant for S1.67,
which also throws costs on the defend
ant of upwards of $500.

Capt. Billy Wise, of the Rocky noun
tain detective force, arrived in the city
yesterday on his way to Denver with a
prisoner who has travelled under several
names, to wit: Gates, Reed, Gray and
Warner. He is under arrest now on
the charge of horse stealing and of an
assault with intent to kill. Capt. Wise
says he is very desperate man, having
broken Jail twice and escaped a like
number of times from the officers of the
law, but was finally captured at Pine
Ridge, and Billy says he proposes to
hold him with an ''iron grasp" this
time. Officers have been constantly on
his trail since last July. The prisoner
is very small of stature, with round
features which plainly indicate vicious
and villainous disposition. He was
taken over the Colorado Central for
