Don't Cheat the Bows.

Many boy has felt irreparably discour-
aged over losing the animal, or the pro-
ceeds Of the sale, which had been given to
him as his own. But it is only an Ameri-
can boy of our times who has ever thought
Of making known his grievance to all around
by telling the story in letter to the press.
4 resolute and widely awakened lad tells
how he had bought lamb, and how, after
he had taken care of it year, It was
sheared and the fleece was put by itself in
closet, where it lay quite WHILE" A
wool peddler came along, but the boy,
hearing that more was paid at the store,
would not sell his fleece then. On going
afterward to look at it, it was gone. His
father told him that he was under age and
that he himself had right to sell it to pay
bills, and good cry was all the boy got.
He had another in the fall, when he found
that his sheep, too, had disappeared. He
complains of feeling cheated and discour-
aged, but closes his letter with resolve to
bear up. The writer Of this feels SYM
pathy for this boy, all the more that he re-
members similar fate attending sheen
once given to him when full grown, and 81
perhaps somewhat less valued than the one
bought as lamb and reared up. What
privation should not father be willing to
undergo rather than to infict such pain
full and paralyzing encouragement on son
who is working with him in his fields, and
who should some day fill his place.

Reflections on Outnouses.

Reflections on OuthOuses.
From the New York Tribune
The farm outhousl, in three cases out Of
five, is an unmitgated nuisance alike to
comfort and to health. In the barn, when
that structure is near the house or in shed
when not, the vault is usually 80 open to
the wind that there is always strong up-
ward draft which, in addition to it's discom-
fort, suggests at all times the locality Of the
place, often at distance. The danger to
the physical health Of portion Of the
usehold-where such conditions exist
is only too well known by those informed
on the subject. As a rule when in the barn
1t receives the same attention as the manure
heaps, which are only cleared away in
spring. Where the barbarous vault is 8
necessity the arrangement can be made re-
spectacle by the outlay of very little money
ton. Let the ventilating shaft be large
enough and open enough at the top to be
Of some service. Have tight fitting door
at the bottom, opening upward, and fasten-
ing when closed with q good strong wood
en- button. Then build stout wooden box
of two-inch yellow pine; put pair of strong
cleats on the bottom, for STRENGTH and to
servo as runners, and then fasten big iron
ring in the end by which to haul the affair
out at stated times, and the arrangement is
complete. A barrel or two of good dry
loan should stand near, and every few days
somsone should be required to spend per-
hape five minutes in covering the surface Of
the heap completely from view. Whitewash
should be used occasionally on the wood
work Of the vault, and lime sprinkled over
the ground when the box is removed "a
horse can be employed in the removal. In
this way farm clubhouse can be made as
comfortable as city affair; it will be odor-
less and more conducive to health as that
city fend, sewer gas, will not be known.

Cheese Factories in Lower Canada.

"
One of the editors Of the Canada Form
er has been making a prolonged visit to the
old French settlements on the St.Lawrence
river to observe their methods of farming.
In relation to diaries, he says: The cheese
factory system lately developed here has
given great impetus to dairy farming
among the habatant8. There are at least
sixteen cheese factories in operation within
radius of ten miles from St. Hyacinthe,
the general average production for each be-
ing about $50 cheeses of 60 pounds weight
per month. These factories run about five
or six months of the year, and though man
aged by English speaking people, the pat
rons are nearly all French. They are con-

see to the sales Of the produce, and after
the manager has been paid at the rate of .
cent and half per pound, the balance re-
naming is divided according to the auan-
tity of milk supplied by each. Practical
and experienced cheese makers, either
men or women, received as high as $50 to
$50 per month and board, and unskilled
hands So per month and board. The
great majority, if at all, Of those cheese
factories have been started within half dog
en- years, and the system may be regarded
as now firmly established among the French
Canadians. The bulk of the produce goes
to the United States. Three butter factories
are also either in actual operation or short
~ to be opened. The cheese factory sys-
tom is extending further east, two residents

Anna Dickinson's Thrilling Adventure


Atlantic City Letter to Washington Republican,.
In the early part of Miss Anna Dickin-
sons career she met lady in travelling
who proved very congenial she invited her
to visit her at an elegant residence on the
suburbs of a large city. The invitation
was accepted and Miss Dickinson, being
much fatigued on the evening Of her arrival,
retired early. Soon she heard the clash
ing Of chains, seemingly in the room with
her. At first she thought she must be
nervous and tried to sleep, but ssired ma
lures sweet restorer" was wcoed in vain.
Soon the noise was heard again,
and suddenly she felt the presence of q
human being very near her even on
the bed where she lay and also felt an icy
cold chain pressed against her. 'Springing
from the bed she ran screaming into the
hall, where she was met by the lady whose
guest she was, and fell fainting at her feet.
The intruder was the insane husband of
Miss Dickinson's hostess, who had escap-
ed from his room and keeper, and the
chains were light chains about his hands,
which were used to keep him from injur-
ing himself. Miss Dickinson had not
been informed that such person existed,
yet had been assigned a room in the same
portion of the house he occupied.

The Spotted Tail Conspiracy.

In describing delegation of Sioux which
recently passed through Sioux City, en- route
to Washington, the Journal of that city says:
But the center of attraction was White
Thunder, the sole representative of the Brule
band Of 1000 souls, and the successor of the
recently slain Spotted Tail. White Thunder is
large, well-built man, about fifty years old,
with a kindly face shaded by glossy black
hair that hung to his shoulders. This hair
was not like that of the Indian usually It
was wavy, almost curly. The reporter had
good opportunity to see him as he sat by Rev.
writing table in the Hubbard house, debating
letter to his wife at Rosebud agency. The
chief was clad in long alpaca coat, broad
brimmed white hat, blue trousers and moe
casins His not unpleasant face was wreathed
with an ample smile at times as he dictated the
hanson, after he had finished writing the let
ter, granted the reporter a few minutes talk
about the death of Spotted Tail. He knew
nothing about the matter personally, he said,
as he was stationed at Yankton agency long
way from Rosebud, where the tragedy oc-
Cured: All he knew he had heard from the
Indians who had come in with him. Spotted
Tail had stolen the wife of q lame member of
his tribe, whose name he did not remember,
and consequently had been keeping out of the
sight of his people for several days previous
But on the day of the killing he came from
his own house to the agency building. After
finishing his business there he started on foot
to go to the council tent some little distance
off, to have final talk with his head men be-
fore leaving for Washington. On his way he
was met by Grow Dog, who was driving in his
wagon. Grow Dog jumped to the ground, and
leveling his gun, shot Spotted Tail through
the body, the ball entering on the right side,
and passing through the heart. came
out on the left SIDE Spotted Tail
made motion as if to draw his re-
volver from his pocket, advanced q
step or two toward Grow Dog, and fell dead.
Grow Dog jumped into his wagon and drove
off and had not been seen since about the
agency. There were no words between the
two at the time Of the shooting There was
quarrel of long standing between them, Spot
ted Tail when young man. long before he
was chief, having killed brother of Grow
Dog Henry Fontenelle, one Of tho Omaha
delegates, had talked with the Sioux since
their arrival. He said that from what he could
hear Spotted Tails having stolen the wife of
the lame Indian had nothing to do with his
killing. The abduction had been settled BY
Spotted Tail sending the injured husband four
ponies. Grow Dog had nothing to do with the
matter one way or another. He had quarrel
of his own, and one OF long standing This
quarrel had been revived by the dismissal of
Grow Dog from the position of captain in the
police force, which dismissal he attributed to
Spotted Tails influence. No disturbance is
likely to follow Spotted Tails death, Rev. Mr.
Williamson said. White Thunder, the second
chief, had been quietly elevated to the vacant
throne. and matters were likely to 60 on as be-
fore.

A PROSPEROUS PLACE.

Brief Description of Chamberlain, ID. t..
Its Surroundings and Advantages.
Special Correspondence of the Pioneer Press.
CHAMBERLAIN, D. T., Aug. 14.-The country
from Mitchell to Chamberlain is all gently
rolling prairie, with not a bush or a tree to re-
ieve the monotony during the entire distance
of seventy miles. In fact there is not shrub
between the Sioux and Missouri rivers on tho
line Of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul rail
road, distance Of $50 miles There is but
one stream of water, the Jim river, in the $50
miles, and man crossing this section two
years ago would have been obliged to drive
about 100 miles without being able to
get bucket Of water for . team.
This, however, is being overcome by wells on
the many claims that have been taken up, and
homes have been established all through this
secnon: Everything, of course, looks very
new. The houses are mostly small shanties
some built of boards and some of sod. There
ls generally not more than from five to ten
acres broken, and very few, if any, buildings
besides the shanties The crops are not as
rule as good as they are in Iowa, which may
be accounted for by the fact that many were
unable to get seed until very late. But for the
time the crops have had to grow everything
looks fine. Wells throughout this section are
usually from twenty to forty feet deep.
Chamberlain is located at the crossing of the
Missouri rivers by the Chicago, Milwaukee
4 st. Paul railroad, and is $50 miles
from the west Iowa line The town was started
last spring by the Dakota Land company, all
eenterprising Iowa men. John H. King Of
Hampton, To-, is president and J. T. stearns
of the same place secretary. Associated with
these two gentlemen are F: M Goodykoontz of
Mason City and Mayor Kellum of Hampton.
It is surprising what has already been
done before the railroad got within
twenty miles Of the river. But
such a beautiful site for a town could
probably not be found elsewhere in all south
ern Dakota, and the certainty that it will, in
short time, be the distributing point for freight
to all the southwestern part Of the Territory,
has added greatly to its attraction for rapid
improvement. Brule county, in which it
8 situated, is one of the finest in
this part of Dakota. The surrounding coun-
try is one of the finest for stock raising and
agricultural purposes have ever seen.
The freight competition between the Mil
waukee road and the river brings everything
as cheap here as almost any place in Iowa. It
is beautiful country, with great future, the
place for young men and those with small
posed mostly of this class of people and q
whole-souled, hearty welcome is the rule.

Cardinal Newman aged yearly and years

come in his later years-peace with honors,
but not by them--and a London observer
says that the sharp lines of the features, the

give place to that expression of calm and
peace which the old painters bestowed up
on saints and martyrs. The fact is not
unfamiliar in great Roman ecclesiastics,
but rarely elsewhere in the clergy OF the
Latin church.
