that they sleep peacefully through the

The Indians,

Sitting Bull is being deserted by his warriors
at what must be to him an alarming rate. About
1000 of the Sioux have already surrend cred at
Fort keogh, and being sent to tue
Fort Peck that about 1000 others are coming
into that post, and now the doughty Indian
warrior has only about $50 fighting men. The
reason for the wholesale desertion is t o be
found in the fact that the buffalo herds have
nearly all gone south of the Missouri river,
where it would not be safe for the braves To
follow them.
Col. Miles reports that Sergeant Devlin, of the
Seventh cavalry with eight soldiers, encoun-
tered party of hostile Sioux near the forks of
the Box Elder, few DAYS ago. and killed two
ofihem, wounded one, and recaptured several
head of cattle. Several hostile parties have
been seen lately near the Yanktonnais camp and
the troops at Fort kcogh are preparing to give
good account of such Of them as they can

Rules for Travellers,

\ chaplain at Baden Baden sends t. a
London Journal these SIX hygienic
rules for tourists on the Continent: 81
Bring not only light summer costumes
with you, but also warm wraps, great
coats, rugs, waterproofs, cloaks and
shawls, to say nothing of umbrellas and
goloshes. ,. Never 90 out in the even
ing, or stand upon a tower or high,
especially after a hot walk, without put
ting on a greatcoat or shawl, if the at
mosphore is cool and breezy 3. Never
sit down upon an iron chair or stone
bench, without first laying shawl or
rug upon it-there is no more fruitful
source of catching those dangerous in
ternal colds which cause dialrhna and
shivering fits, perhaps fevers. f. Take
care never 10 have an empty stomach
take little, if you viii, but often. >.
Avoid the light wines of the country
choose, rather, wholesome beer or les
pecially before bedtime) a little hot
brandy and water 6. Avoid drinking
cold water that has not been boiled
cold tea is far preferable"
