a Medicine Neg Feast.


In company with friend visited an
encampment of Indians at the Pipestone
quarries Minnesota. and witnessed one
Of the national feasts Of tho Sioux. The
Indians belonged to tho Yankton tribe,
and numbered about sixteen lodges, or
eighty people, including in their number
bucks, squaws, papooscs, boys, girls, old
and feeble warriors, not counting the
large number of dogs. To many the L.
dian cur would appear worthless piece
of property, but at the feast In question
the most gaunt and hungry looking dog
of all played an important part. A
trench about three feet in length and one
foot in depth had been dug and into this
the lean old dog was placed and covered
over with sticks, on which dirt was piled,
leaving the head only protrude. Two
days was he confined in this artificial
oven. At the expiration of the two days
the master of ceremonies, or medicine
man, pronounced all mystical rites prop
erly observed and that it was time to
carry out the completing act. This was
done by removing the dirt and piling on
more sticks, covering the animal COM
pletely. Fire Is now applied to this heap
of brushwood and tie once respectable
cur made a roast dog.
Upon our arrival the roasting had just
been finished and the whole camp were
crowding around the smoldering embers
to get q portion Of the much priced

welcome guests, courtesy seemed to forbid

my friend.
The medicine dog feast seems to be Of
both medical and religious character, an
ancient custom to which the Indian clings
with tenacity.--C. j. Crandell in Detroit

concerning the Importance of pure water

those who will sojourn at the usual sum-
mer resort and watering place 1t is too
often the case that the purity Of the
water supply at such places Is taken for
granted, with the most serious results

great San Joaquin Valley with its limitless
resources has ever offered the investor.
SITUATION.
Goshen Is in the heart of the valley on the
man line Of the 8. P. R r. Just midway be,
tween San Francisco and Los Angeles, and
1t s also the only center of the Cross Rail-
road systems at pr esent running from Huron
on the west to .Visalia on the east This cross
line is now being pushed to the great cual-
field Vt Robins and Rawlins on the west, and
on the east will tap the inexhaustible umt er
belt of the oierras. II Is beside, the center
of numerous prospective lines and must un-
doubtedly become the great traffic depot OF
the Valley.
Soil and Agricultural Advantages.
Around Goshen are 100000 acres of the
finest agri, ultural land in the State--Quite
as rich and productive land as that around
Fresno, which has sprung from o hamlet to
a city of 10000 inhabitants in three years
This soil Is now bearing all the fruits and
products Of California In abundance wher-
ever tested.
Goshen is 10 miles from Tulare Lake and
lying as IT does Between 1t and the sierrae,
the questi OF water supply can never pre-
sent any difficulty, as all esdy att sted by the

and artesian wells

In the San Joaquin Valley-perfectly free
from all malaria1 infuences-and while the
days are delightfully."- warm the nights are

MONROVIA.
The Queen City of the Semi.TrOp.


A HERALD reporter visited Monrovia and
Arcadia yesterday. IT is two years and two
months since he first laid eyes on where
Monrovia is. 1t is q year and half since
he saw the place last. At the time of his
first visit Mr.. w. N. Monroe had recently
purchased couple Of hundred acres of the
sheep pastures and he had Just moved into
his new house and planted an orange Or
chard. 1t is less than two years and half
siuce these things were done. Mr.. MOnrOe's
house was the only one in sight at that
time. year ago the newspaper man was
surprised tu see large town spread over
the mesa. but the astonishment of that time
was self-contanment as compared with
yesterday. If there was q town
year ago there is city--a full-fedeed
city there to- day Mr.. Munroe is its Mayor
and there snd pGGe
be as things are going to day. The sort of
people who are going into Monrovia do not
need police to keep them in order.
But slow.going people may think Mon
rovia Ii a city In name rather than In reali-
ty. That would be great mistake. Mon
rOvia has $500 people. she has two large
churches, magnificent school house, two
banks, q ine hotel and stores, shops, plan
$4,000 each. The school cost more. One of
the banks cost $50, 900 to build. There are
brick blocks that cost as much. M0nrovia
has milliOnaires enough to make city out of
any place. or no place at all for that matter.
Mr.. Monroe has his home there. 1t cost him
$4,000. His son lives by h side, and his
domicile is as magnificent as the Mayors.
J. I. Case. OF Racine, has residence here.
J. NJ. Stud ,aker of South Bend, has his.
ExMays f. Spence has a new residence
just comp ed. J. D. Bicknell. Esq. has
one for his family Gen. Pile has n
home as stately, as costly, as elegant, as
artistic as you would be likely to find in any
part Of the unios, These reside.ces cost
tom %l2, 500 to $15, 900 each The Grand
View Ho,el is worth $75, 900, and is excel
lently kept.
Monrovia has fine water systematic
best in the county. he water il as clear as
crystal. 1t ia abundant in supply. 1t Is
piped unier pressure to all parts of the
town. The pipes are now being laid for
gas, a company having been organized to
