Sitting Bull Disguised.

When he called at the White House
yesterday, Sitting Bull expected to have
a pow-wow with the President and was
disappointed that the interview was
short. AS he passed down stairs he is re-
ported to have said: "Ugh; no good"
The interpreter told him that the Great
Father was very busy and that hundreds
of white men come here and stay months
and cannot see him. "Ugh," was the
answering grunt, 'white man one great

An Omen Letter to the Knights of Labor.

A malicious report having been cir
culated that | have been selling Heurich's
beer under my name, and that in conse-
quence of this the boycott now on Mr..
Heurieh shall also be placed on me, am
compelled to state that these charges are
utterly base and false. The originator of
so infamous a report is cordially invited
to countenance me on this point to prove

Smell this morning for allowing Potomac
water to waste on their premises by keeping
the spigots open. Fines of So were inn
posed in every case. The crusade on
wasters of water is the result of complaints
coming to the Commissioners of an in
adequate water supply. An enforcement
ofthis law always increases the pressure on
Capitol Hill and other high points.

The Color Line in the Police Court.

Matthew A. Cherry, colored black
smith of Eighth and Boundary streets
was before Judge Shell this morning on
the charge of cruelty to animals. Several
witnesses testified that Cherry struck the
horse with blacksnake whip about 100
times, splitting the hide of the animal. A
fine of So was imposed. Cherry, who is. q
tall old man, has been before the Court be
fore and always breaches u sermon to the
Court and claims to be inspired, and that
the Judge or no other mortal has any
power to punish him, and as usual he was
carried out by four policemen. He was
put into the dock-the Court thinking he
was shamming insanity. He raised quite
q time in the cell where he was put and
was brought up again for trial. Seeing
that the Judge was in earnest, he changed
his tactics and got down on his knees in a
supplicating attitude. He was fined $50
or ninety days in jail for contempt of
court. In disposing of the case Judge
Smell said that if he thought the prisoner
was insane he would not punish him.
But he claimed that he was punished be-
cause he was colored, and he was dis.
graceto his race.

Anxious to See Bill.

LEROY Johnson, George Baker and
John Travers, three small boys, were
fined $5 each by Judge Smell this morning
for destroying public trees. The charge
against them was climbing trees at Ath-
letic Park to see Buffalo Bill's show. Off
Ger Cross testified that the trees were dam
aged. The Court decided yesterday that
there was no law against climbing tele-
phone poles, but he said to-day that that
decision did not include trees

The publication of all the details of social scandals in the newspapers is not productive of good results. On the con trary it only makes things worse A cer- tain Irish coachman was confessing his sins to priest. Alter he had got through the priest asked him if that was all.
 "Yes, your riverince"
 Have you never been guilty of the sin of stealing the oats from your masters horses, selling the forage, and pocketing the moneyr
 "No, your riverince, never thought of such thing"
 The next time Pat went to confession, the first sin he confessed was stealing the oats from his masters horses.
 " I'm dis,hressed to hear you say so," said the priest.

A Guarantee.

Of all the diseases to which mankind IS subject, there is not one that more completely baff1es medical skill than Bnght's disease of the kidneys. Nature, however, has supplied the remedy which science has tried in vain to provide. The waters of Griffin Spring, Ark, will not oaly relieve, but will positively cure Brights disease. It has been cured by the use of these waters, and so positive are we that they will cure in every in. stance, that we guarantee cure to all afflicted with Bright's disease or any other kidney affection, who will come and use the waters as advised. By guarantee IS meant that unless a cure IS effected, the patient will be under no expense whatever while at Griffin Spring. Visit ors whose cases require it, will receive the best of medical attention from Dr. T. A. Krider, resident physician. As to the efficacy of these waters in kidney troubles, we refer te John H. Reslear, of Genoa, Nance Co.,, Neb., who, after sui- fering during several years with Bright's disease, was completely restored by a three weeks visit to Griffin Spring. Wm. Allen, of Little Rock. Ark. suffered 37 years with kidney complaint, and was cSSsSa hhy ike use of these waters. Hon. C. R. Breckenridge, M. C., Washington, D. C., Hon. Lecil Bobo, San Antonio, Tex, H. J. Deal, Charleston, Mo, F. M. Threadgill, Lynchburg. Va, and Rev. A. R. Kennedy, Little Rock Ark, will all bear testimony to tue efficacy of the waters of this spring. Parties interested may write to any of the gentlemen mentioned above, for confirmation of our statement. Griffin Spring is but three and one half miles from the railroad, and less than four hours ride from Little Rock. The hotel affords the best of accommoda ations to guests, and there is nothing lacking in the surroundings to make it a pleasant resort. For further information address

It Mad. No Difference.
Luther G. RiRgs, in Exchanre.l

k~~~sSe 9s NtBH9t a1 GAASuanLSsl The day had been set for their mar riage, and the young man was blissfully happy. But it happened one day tha, his father failed in business, and then, the young man was of sorrowful heart. But he had a nice sense of honor, and he could not hold his Mary lane to her promise, now that his fortune had mel with such sad reverses. So he gathered together all the pink love letters, the lock of shining golden hair, the embalmed rose buds and pressed violet blossoms, and with heavy heart and faltering foot. steps, he meandered mournfully toward the residence of her who, alas, could now be no more to him than a very dear friend or sister as it were. His mission was one of honor and duty, and he was determined to release his Mary Jane from her nuptial engagement,
 He reached the paternal mansion, stumbled up the marble steps, and while his heart kept up tattoo of pit-a-pat, he timidiy and shrinkingly touched the door bell. The sable-hued attendant ushered him into the parlor, and he grew faint. In another moment vision of ethereal loveliness dazzled his eyes, and one hum dred and fifty pounds of ecstatic female loveliness, blonde hair and silk dresses flew to his outstretched arms.
 "Oh, Georgel dear GeorgeI" she ex- claimed with all the ardor and delight of a first meeting arter an enforced absence of twenty years; and she seized both of his hands convulsively and actually dragged him to velvet-covered sofa in the parlor.
 But he put her from him, gently yet resolutely, for he was determined that come what would he would do his duty.
 "Mary Jane" said he, after great ef- fort, Mary Jane, r."
 "What is the matter, dearest George P she asked, while her slight frame trem. bled convulsively lis your mother" "No, 1t is my father; have you not heard2 He"
 "Is not ill, lhope."
 "No, he has-has-failed."
 "ls that all? Why, how you startled me! l thought something terrible had Papa told me of what had occurred, and Pm so glad"
 'So gladl Why, what do you mean ?'
 Why papa said your father had failed for $500 900, and of course,' said papa, he'll make $45o 900 out of the failure.' And won't 1t be so nice! He'll give us lots of money, and we'll have such a nice bridal tour, and then we'll come back and your father will give us nice mansion. and we'll have horses and coachmen and servants, and all that sort of things. How lucky 1t IS for us, ain't it, dear George?"
