where BY early rising, restricted diet and q dose

terested In Homburg the Prince Of Wales took
a fancy TO 1t and, as necessary conse-
quence, all those who want to be fashionable
flock there during the month OF August,
when IL is honored by the presence OF
his royal highnesS. The life at Homburg is
not exciting. The drinkers rise at an early hour
and take three glasses. Of water and walk about

and nothing Is seen OF them until the afternoon,
when they congregate TO look at the lawn tennis.
At 5.o'clock they dine. After dinner they sit on
the terrace walk in the garden, and listen to the
band. At about 10 O'Clock shey 60 TO bed But
they are happy. They see each other, and almost
fancy themselves in hyde Park during the London

White Clouds Marrow Escape.
NEARLY LYNCHED AT A POw-w0w FOR DECLARING
HE WOULD SIGN THE TREATY.


At the big pow-wow Of Indians TO consider the
question Of signing treaty at Standing Rock Sat-
urday, Sioux from all over the reservation came in
and assembled In q hollow q few miles below
Standing Rock. In the absence Of Chief John Gall,
Sitting Bull assumed to be leader, and wore a
more than usually ferociOuS look. The crafty old
savage feels ugly the fact that Chief Gall and
not he was sent 10 Washington, and is more than
ever determined to defeat the object Of the COM
missioners visit. He opened the proceedings with
an address, in which he urged the Indians not TO
sign the treaty, and limited at treachery on the
part OF Chief Gall. Black Thunder also
advised the Indians TO reject the treaty. Then
young White Cloud, graceful, handsome Sioux,
assembled the little knoll Of ground used as q
speakers stand and said: al have listened to the
talks OF our old leaders, Sitting Bull and Black
Thunder. They are opposed TO the treaty. They
speak too hastily and TOO rashly. Their words
should be Carefully weighed before leaving the
tongue They know not what they say. The
treaty Is for our benefit, and for one, shall sign"
There was a dead calm for a moment after White
Cloud had concluded. Then, headed by Sitting
Bull, the horde OF braves made rush for White
Cloud, and would no doubt have killed him had
hot Chief Gail Unexpectedly appeared at that
Instant, and held the maddened Indians at bay.
Sitting Bull, Black Thunder and others Of the
leaders quickly Aeaked away and the council
broke up.
