A Polk County Farmers Death.

VIM. seid, u farmer living a few miles
south of Des Moines, was found dead in
the bottom an unused coal shaft. He
went out the evening before to start a wind
pump near the shaft, and it is supposed
lie attempted to go to the bottom Of the
shaft after water with which to prime the
pump and was overcome by foul air. Late
in the evening a small dog that had gone
with him returned to the house alone and
by its strange actions attracted attention
to the loss of its master, which led to tile
discovery. Mr.. Seid was 60 years old, a
native Of Germany, and had lived on his
farm for twenty-four years.

A Telephone Manager Disappears.

The disappearance of g. ". Davis,
manager of the telephone exchange, at
Kearney. has been the subject Of consid-
cradle speculation there. The young
man left his Office on the evening Of July
18th, telling the company's employees that
LIE would leave on the midnight train for
Omaha IN business. and lie would return
in a dny Or two. He failed to return.
Mr.. Drake, manager of the company, in.
vestigated Mr.. Davis books viii b he
found correct. 1t IS supposed that a
complication of matrimonial affairs was
the cause Of Davis disappearance. From
bundles of old correspondence it was
learned that Davis has been engaged to a
lady in the east, and that the time for the
nuptials had been set for different times,
and eavh time postponed by him. The
lady had etermined upon August LIST as
the wedding day, and had arranged to
live at Kearney. in view of supporting the
aged parents of the lady it is supposed
that he pnrposely lost himself. Another
young lady in the east is conspicuous in
the case.

1he sSoux Commission's ProGfosA
Having reached the moro important and
obstinate agencies At Cheyenne and Stand

has besn comparatively slow. At Chsy-
snne the opposition was both outspoken
snd belligerent. At one council nearly 200
hestilss, with Hump at their head, came in
on horseback and virtually captured the

part OF the Indians. Gen. Crook arose
and said the rolls were ready for signatures.

from making n break for the Cheyenne.

there were about 275 signatures on the
rolls. The rolls were left in charge of
Maj. Randall, of the army, aud it is OK
pected that, as at Grow Creek, most of the
Indians will sign, including agood number
from the hostile camp. At the last council
Hump made a bitter speech, which was
%app.auded by his followers, who came to
the council mounted ind singing. Late
reports from Cheyenne state that 335 have
signed and more are being slowly added.
The prospects are fair that three -fourths
OF the signatures will be obtained there.
Late advicos from Standing Rock are to
the effect that the outlook is not bright.

THE GREATDOCTOR.

Some days since THE GAZETTE printed
column or more of DR.. Brown-Se-
guard IS discovery, the Elixir of Life,
which makes the old to be young again.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says the great
doctor married well-known society lady
of that city, and that he is the son of a
Philadelphia named Brown who was
married to a French woman named
Sequard. The distinguished son was
born in Mauritius and was educated in
Paris. prominent Cincinnati physician
says that the criticism that DR.. Brown
Sequard is not practitioner but is
vain theorist, is twaddle. "No mere
practitioner could have ever made such
discovery. It must have come from
deep student who is much at his books
and in his laboratory. DR.. Brown-Se-
guard has been an eminent authority for
many years. 1 used to hear his opinion
quoted as authoritative when was a
medical student, and it astonishes me
now to hear his interiors laughing him TO
scorn. We can It afford to boot at scien-
fists in these days of the telegraph and
graphophone. - DR.. Brown-Sequard had
lectured in Cincinnati, and one of his
propositions had been Of incalculable
value to the interviewed Cincinnatian,
Gin his treatment of hysteria in women.
1t was very simple treatment, but he had
never known of its failure. 1t consisted
of crossing the right foot over the left
and the pulling of the great toe. - If the
French doctor can cure hysteria in wo-
men by pulling their bid toes, and make
old men young by injections of pulped
lamb, his fortune is made.

If Exall's name ever goes before the

4 SHAMELESS ORGAN.

During the last campaign the personal
organ of DR.. Benjamin Harrison was the
Indianapolis Journal, edited by Lie
Halford, now private secretary to the
president. The Journal was a persistent
defender of Dudley in the "blocks of

that majority of the grand jury charged
with an investigation of the matter were
Republicans, and unfolding the Judge
who stultified himself and smirched the
ermine to rule in Dudley's behalf.
That the Journal is low and contempt
ible and dishonest, everybody knows;
that it gloats over its own shame and
glorifies its own dishonor, has been re-
Gently made apparent. 1t has recently
issued ''Our Block of Five Letters, -
piece of yellow blotting paper, upon
which are given five reasons for subscrib-
ing for the paper, the fifth being that the
Journal has ga high moral tone. -
Many of its former friends have turned
from it in disgust that it should adopt as
its trade mark the sign of its own dis
grace.

Fort Worth has acted upon the requests

the benefits of their expenditures and

itself whether there is any profit to itself
in such an effort. The movement is for

A "POvERTY SOCIETY has been started

will never be very popular, for while the
finest pleasures of life can be enjoyed IN
dependently of money, yet want, desti-

becoming dependent when old age ar
rives are by no means popular. In this
connection, several years ago, very
wealthy widow remarked: "Mr. -, if
there is one thing in this world I envy
