BufTalo-Boue Picking.

A curious industry of North Dakota.
which will decrease in time is buffalo
bone picking. The vast herds of butfa-
10 have been slaughtered and their
skins sold. and now the pion GERS make
over the prairies. The bones are ship
ped to ST. Louis or Chicago and turned
into glue and fertilizers. Kansas, Col
orado, Nebraska, and even old states,
have all been the scene of this strange
contribution to wealth. and no one
knows how many thousands of car
loads have thus been cleaned after the
slaughter Of the American bison.

The GambIer's Sure Fate

''Look at me,'' said professional
gambler to a New YORK Sun reporter.
"Three weeks ago had So, 900 cash.
This morning, think I have enough tor
some chocolate and toast, but am not
CERTAIN" and he forced down into his
pockets and brought up just so cents.
Il know half dozen gamblers who
three years ago had each $500 900 in
cash, and they are now dealing for men
who cleaned them out and bought out
their establishments. In the switching
around of time the new proprietors will
be cleaned out by a new SET and their
Gays as bank dealers, unless they stave
off their predicament by turning
over the box IN some other fel
lows bank. don't believe though, that
there are a dozen faro dealers in NeE
York who have the price Of their break
fasts this morning. They get small
salaries, often drawing them ahead, and
as soon as they are released from work
they rush to rival bank and buck the
tiger with the usual disastrous result
that come to men with small money in
their clothes.
s'The same can be said of the owners
OF the banks themselves. They visit one
another, and pride themselves on playing
an open and rapid game. There is no
criticism that professional gambler or
bank owner hates SO much when he visits
rival establishments as to have it said
that he plays them, meaning the cards,
close to his chest or that his money has
a string 10 it. I have known many bank
owners who have sworn black oaths that
they would not buck against the game
either in or out Of their places. They
are usually the oaths of maiden pro-
prietorship. IT they have a good run
of customers they scoop in the checks
pretty rapidly, let me tell you, and pretty
soon their oaths begin to melt into a
hungering desire to tackle the silver
plated boxes in other banks. I have
known only one bank owner in an expert
ence of 20 years who kept his maid n
oath over six months. In those six

Concluding to Accept Oberly's Offer of 81 Per
Acre for Their Land.
The Indians of the agency have decid-
ed to call a general council of the Sioux,
and will send letters of invitation to the
different tribes TO Ineet at the Rosebud
Agency in the near future and select a
delegation of chiefs to 60 to Washington
with instructions to negotiate the sale of
their lands. The Brules express them
selves as satisfied with the proposed bill
of Indian Commissioner Oberly giving
them ST per acre, and they think 81 the
other Indians will agree with them, but
they desire to send delegation of chiefs
OF their own selection instead of having
the agents select for them. 1t now looks
as though a satisfactory settlement of the
reservation question might be reached
this winter.

ALLEGED CURE THROUGH PRA Y Err.
John Wright, of Atlanta, Claims Such Boor
After Three Years of Blindness


After Three Years of Blindness
Sight restored through prayer, is the
boon which John Wright, prominent
citizen of Pine county, claims TO possess.
Mr.. Wright is now in his seventy-fftb
year, and was the original pioneer in this
section while it was still held by the In
dams. One day thIee years ago, while
returning home from Zebnlon, strange
dimness came over him, and by the time
he reached home he was stone blind.
For three years that have since passed he
has remained in that condition, and all
hope of restoration was given up by his
family. The blind man, however, did not
lose hope, but prayed that sight might be
restored 10 him before death. Several
days ago he was sitting on his front
piazza when he experienced a strong
mental hallucinatior, and an instant
later his sight was restored. The neigh
bors for miles around are visiting
Wright's home to get from his own lips
the story of his recovery.

Two Stories of the Cloth.

Bishop Coke is the son of the late DIR.
Cox, a Presbyterian divine of local re-
nown. The father was stern and austere,
a dyed in-the- blue Calvinist. Great was his
di appointment at his sons apostasy to
the ritualists. He used to laugh grim
ly and say that the young priest had ad-
oed an to his name to stand for Epis-
copaI. And when the son wrote to invite
the old gentleman to attend the ceremon
les of conservation, or '1aYing on of
hands," as bishop, the answer came: "No,
my son; if there had been more laying
on of hands when you were young, there
would be no need of it now"
This story, at his own expense, is at
trihuted to the Rev. DR.. Little, of Chica-
GO, The waits annual dinner of year
ago was spread in enc of the batteries
on Michigan avenue. On an adjoining
vacant lot tents awaited the arrival of

nouuced the coming of q menagerie. An
urchin interrupted DR.. Little with loud
amen. Another Clipped in, 'Let 'er

twinkling, and all the policemen stationed
at the door could not keep the youthful
rabble from rushing into the streets TO

As Others See II.

There was mass meeting of Asto-
ria people at Ross opera house in that
city on last Saturday evening, to see
what could be done towards getting
a move" on the town, especially to get
some more money subscribed to the
capital stock of the Astoria and South
Coast railroad. The band distributed
some music, and a little enthusiasm
was awakend. After considerable talk,
a committee was appointed to solicit
subscriptions to the stock of the COM
pany. 1t seems that the people of As
toria subscribed $64, 900 to build a rail
road to the Seaside, about twenty
miles. They have some work done;
and a few contracts let but they find
that it will take at least 100000 more
to complete the road, and they are
looking around for this money. They
want to get to "tall timber" but it will
take more money than seems to be in
sight. There is no doubt but that if
all the people of Astoria would
interest themselves and go to
work, they would make the
thing go; but it seems there are
some mossbacks down there, and those
who want to do something, and help
out the town are discouraged. They
must Just spit on their hands and take
a new hold. Just don't you ever let
up till you drive the last spike
