Cremtion.

The subject of cremation has taken
fresh hold on the attention of Euro
peans. Sir I. Spencer Wells an en-
inent English surgeon, says public
opinion is rapidly coming to favor
this disposition of decaying bodies.
The ashes of the cremated are gener.
ally taken to burial ground and in.
tered with the ordinary services.
Sometimes they are preserved in buri-
al urns by the relatives. The practice
is spreading in this country. the mat.
ter OF economy in city cemeteries is
also urged, as we'll as the sanitary i'm
portance of the method. Half an
acre would serve large city for 100
years. The great need of the present
time is to reduce the cost of funerals.
Cremation by the same authority will
reduce the cost to a trife. The fire.
men need not cost the town over $500;

collins are rendered useless.-St.

A NEW HUNTING GROUND.
Rich Hunting Grounds Invaded
By SpOrtsmen.
The Wild Hills of Polk and Dali
las Counties Alive
With Game.

The order of the secretary of the In
terror. prohibiting hunting in the ln,
dian Territory, has changed the course
of hunters to the wild and unsettled
districts south and southwest of Ben
ton county. The storms last May and
June flooded the Indian Territory
during the season of incubation, and
this years crop of quail, and similar
game, was practically destroyed. To
prevent almost entire extinction, the
secretary made the order at the re-
quest of the different Indian tribes.
The game in the district south of
Benton was not disturbed by the
floods and the prairies are fairly alive
with all kinds of feathered birds and
the timbered sections full of gray and
fox squirrels.
The best way to get to the hunting
grounds is via. the Narrow Guage to
Warsaw. Here an outfit can be pro.
cured and provisions secured for a
soiourn in an unsettled country.
There are but few roads and the hun
ter is obliged to depend on his COM
pass for directions.

The Remarkable Disappearance
of Little Leonard
LETTER.

Leonard LETTER the 11-yesr-old son of
j. X. LETTER brakeman on the katy,
has disappeared in the most mysterious
manner. No trace to his whereabouts can
be learned and the parents are almost dis
tracted. The little fellow ran of from
home. at the NJ, K. & t., crossing of Fifth
street, and went to SIcher's park to see the
base ball game Saturday afternoon. He
was seen at the park that afternoon, but
has not been heard of since. Mr.. Leffier
and two or three friends spent all of Satur-
day night, yesterday and to-day in search
of the boy but no trace
has been discovered. The boy is described
as light complicated, blue eyes and small
for his age. He had on when he left
home a blue flannel waist with plaid
pants, shoes and straw hat.
The parents a:e perfectly distracted, but
cling to the hope that the lad has gone
home with some farmer who has not had
a chance to send him back home. Ii is to
be hoped that If this meets the eyes of any
body who knows of the whereabouts of the
boy they will relieve the dreadful suspense
of the parents by sending them word as
soon as possible.

BEAR HUNTING.
A Sedalian's Thrilling Adventure
With a Grizzly Bear.

Mr.. John Montgomery's adventures

an account of which appeared IN the

ers about here and it is likely that a
number will depart for the place
where there is bar" this week. So
far as known none of the hunters
about here ever killed q bear, but
some have according to their account
come mighty near doing so while on
s,me of their hunting expeditions.
Mayor Crawford came very
near killing one. A few years
ago In the same section of country,
where Mr.. Montgomery found them,
the mayor and party made an expe-
dition into the bear country on pur-
pose to slaughter bears. They had

the center Of the bear district. The
first evening after going into camp
the mayor took tin pail in hand and
wandered off to a spring about mile
distant. He had just dipped up a
pail of water when he happened to

100 yards in front OF him he discov.
cred a huge grizzly bear sitting on
its launches licking its paws and
looking straight at him. The mayor
looked and the bear looked, but there
was peculiar look in that
bears eye that the mayor did not like.
His heart almost ceased to beat and a
peculiar trembling affected his Limits,
but he managed to throw the pail
away and took bee line for camp.
He never looked back for fear of los.
ing time. When he got to camp he
announced to his astonished COM
panlons that he had found a bear.
Excitement prevailed in camp for a
time and all armed to the teeth, pro-
ceeded to the spot, but the bear had
gone. The tracks showed that be
had gone in the opposite direction
and did not pursue his discoverer.
Mr.. Crawford's brother shot one q
day or two later, but there is no bear
blood ON his own hands.

HORSESTEALING MADE EASY
How Hundreds of Horses Are
Spirited Away by
Thieves.

A great horse-stealing scheme has
been unearthed IN several Missouri
river counties in Dakota. The gang
working the scheme is quite large and
may have branch as far south as this
state, which may account for the mys-
terious disappearance of horses in this
section. The plan is worked in the
following manner
Take q number of old broken down
horses out among the hills, which are
totally uninhabited, and strays will
come in with these, when they will be
caught and sent out to other parties
connected with the gang, and in few
days they will have the horse hum
dreds of miles from where it was
picked up, and then offer it for sale
with safety. Facts lead to the belief
that this organization leads frem near
Pierre, s. d., to Great Falls,
Mont, and possibly to the British
possessions. Horses that are stolen
near Pierre are run north through the
counties, travelling stated distances by
night and are sold in the northern
field, while horses that are stolen in
the north are sent south or traded be-
tween Fargo and Pierre. Of course,
if the drove is overtaken the parties
driving it can easily escape by claim
ing that the horses had come to the
drove unnoticed.

Undertook. ILL.,, ten miles east OF this
city, committed suicide Monday evening.
The particulars of the sad affair are mea-
ger, but it is known that young Clark

probably engaged to be married.
He called on her Monday evening anu
asked her to accompany him to the GriEgs-
Vile fair during The week. She declin ed
the invitation, and finally dismissed him
entirely. He ended the lovers quarrel by
drawing a revolver from his pocket and
shooting himself in the head in her pres
ence. Death was the result in a few min
utes. The funeral took place this after
noon. The deceased was about % years OF
age, and stood high IN the community.
The lady, Miss Hubbard, belongs to an
excellent family.
