~LOOK OUT FoB rae ENGINE

| am locomotive engineer, and have been
for twenty years, and am now running on the
Maine Central Railroad. Life on an engine,
as all engineers know, is very trying TO health
and strength. The continual jar of the ell
CINE, and strain on our long trips all tend to
weaken the kidneys and urinary organs. In
addition to this ten years ago, met with a Sc
we're accident, and was taken from under my
engine with severe internal injuries, which
gave me great pain. l was laid up for six
months, and suffered more than can describe,
and more than | wish to suffer again. re-
sumed work, but my kidneys began to disturb
me, and my nervous system seemed to be on
of order could not sleep, as my water de-
manded such constant attention that 1 was
kept awake great part of the night; to uri-
nate caused severe pains. l employed the best
medical skill in Portland and elsewhere but
continued to grow worse.
Twas persuaded to try Hunts Remedy as
found that many of my friends in Portland
had used it with great success, yet 1 had no
faith that it would reach my case. However
l sent for half-dOZen bottles at one of the
drug stores, in Portland, and from the use OF
the first bottle found a great relief. My water
was much better, and the pain in the back and
limbs greatly relieved. / continued its use un-
til had used ten bottles in all, and it has been
to me wonderful blessing, and have deemed
it a duty and privilege to recommend it to
those troubled in a similar manner; and you
may publish this for the benefit of our railroad
men and the public in general, as it has COM
pletely cured me.

unsold-a thing to be first ascer-
tanned. Respectfully submitted.
FRANK I. ROCHE.
Mr.. Roche's report was discussed,
but not acted upon.
DIR. WOoten, on behalf of the state
university regent, rendered the board
the assistance of a proper person to
aid in classifying and valuing the uni
verSity lands, so as to get them ready
for leasing as soon as practicable.
The board accepted the proposition,
and agreed to appoint such agent as
the regents suggested. The regents
are to pay the expense of the agent
and of the appointment.
a communication was received
from the agent appointed by the
board to prevent cutting timber from
the school lands in Preside county,
stating that he was unable to do
much without assistance, which he
suggests might be afforded by the
rangers. The communication lies
over for consideration.
The board adjourned.
1t occurs to us that it would be
better to sell the lands which are thus
despoiled on the border counties be-
fore they are rendered comparatively
valueless by the timber being cut
from them, generally by parties hired
for the purpose.

the Rosebud BarDarltIeS.
An army officer, witness to the
great sun dance of the Sioux at Rose
bud agency in Dakota, sends an effec-
tive description of the fortunes to the
Chicago Times. The camp this year,
near the agency, he says, contained
10000 Indians, and made circle five
miles in circumference beautiful
sight. In front of the tent, where the
sun dancers were waiting their ordeal,
lay a whitened buffalo skull on a
bunch of wild sage. Inside the tepee
was the sacred medicine pipe on some
mysterious sticks.
On Friday a scouting party was
sent out to discover suitable pole for
the centre of the dancing circle, and
the next day the pole, tall elm tree
was cut by an Indian maiden conse-
Grated to this Office, Her Pipe, neice of
Standing Bear She is said to have
cut thirteen poles, and will never
marry. When it had been trimmed
and placed in position, there came the
'charge on the POLE" thousand war
riors on thousand horses, down from
the hill, around the camp, reckless for
