harvester combine at $4,000, 600.
1t looks now as if the manufacturers Of

An the Other Indians Surrender, and
the Cruel War Is Over.
At headquarters of the Department
of the Platte Sunday night a dispatch
was received from General Brooke,
which stated that Major Whitesides, in
command of battalion of the Seventh
Cavalry, had captured Big Foot and his
entire band near the head of Porcupine
creek About $50 bucks surrendered.
General Brooke also telegraphed that
the hostiles in the Bad Lands had sur
rendered, and would reach Pine
Ridge on Tuesday. Bright Eyes sent
word Saturday night that half the hos
tiles had left the Bad Lands and were
within few hours march of the agen-
cy. It is now apparent that the Indian
trouble in the Northwest is rapidly APP
preaching a termination. Short Bull,
Kicking Bear and his outfit are now
abandoning the Bad Lands and coming
to Pine Ridge Agency. The final move
ment of the troops has undoubtedly
greatly influenced Short Bull in his
former determination to die rather
thar surrender. 1t is not supposed they

Past Service.
There is horse in the United States
army, says the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal, on the retired list drawing a pen
sion. The horse belonged to Captain
Keogh, a near relative to General Gus
ter, and is the only horse that escaped
the massacre in which that General was
killed. His name is COmanche, and
he is stationed at Fort Riley, Kan, with
the Seventh Cavalry-Custer's old regi-
ment
His pension is sufficient to cover his
transportation wherever he goes, and to
pay for his forage. He is cared for by q
man detailed for that duty, and who
does nothing else. He is saddled,
bridled and equipped and led out for in
spection, yet no one dares sit in his sad
die. He has been much sought after by
enterprising showmen, but Uncle Sam
says no.
He will be kept as long as life lasts,
and after that will probably be prepared
and sent to the Smithsonian Institute at
Washington. When found COmanche
was many miles away from this scene OF
the battle. He had seven wounds, and
was nearly exhausted from loss Of blood.

Advices from Rome state that the

Ject for over year, and at his request

Bishops of different countries, includ-

growth of the present time. The encv-
eical will be the browning act of the
POpe's work in this direction. The date of
its publication has not vet been fixed.
The Pope is in the habit of carefully cor
recting and polishing his writings. He
VIII also consult with certain Cardinals
and Prelates on the leading passages of
his encycical, but the Associated Press
correspondent is enabled to give the
substance of it now. The encvclicaI will
review ana expound the whole question
affecting wage workers. The document
viii comprise three parts. First. His Ho-
illness will develop the general principles
upon which social economy is founded
and the dominant idea of distributive JUS
tiee which should regulate the inter
course of man and the speed of wealth.
The Pope says that distributive and re-
stOrative justice are needed to prevent
misery and sweating on one side and
exorbitant riches and tyranny on the
other The second part comprises
the origin and cause of the present
condition Of the social problem. On
this point His Holiness takes a new
thesis, first developed in his encyclical
on Socialism. The third part contains
the views of the Pope regarding the
remedies, beyond religious and moral
influence, to be advocated His Holt
ness expresses himself againin favor of
intervention by the State, within the
limits previously set forth. He con-
dennis capitalism, as now organized,
and advocates a more equitable and Just
distribution of riches. The ency-
clical viii probably appear before
Easter. The Pope works upon it near
ly every day. He is convinced that
Papacy and the Church should lead the
present social and democratic move
ment, and win appeal TO all conserva-
tive forces and TO Protestants to aid in
securing the safety of society. The
Pope's physician says His Holiness may
live for some time yet, as he has a ro-
bust constitution, and is suffering from
no infrmity.

The Method of DIR. Shurly, of Detroit,
Made KnOwn-Iodine and Chloride Of
Gold.
DR.. E. f. Ingalls,, of Chicago, has re-
ceived a supply of liquids for the treat
ment of consumption by the methods of
DR.. E. L. Shurley, Of Detroit. There
are two liquids for use in this treat
ment, each made as nearly chemically
pure as possible. One of them is
iodine, the other a solution Of chloride
Of gold. The iodine solution is to be in
jected each day for a week in incipient
cases, then on alternate days. In aggra-
waited cases, where breaking down has
begun, the two solutions are to be used
on alternate days, then simultaneously,
care being taken to prevent the forma-
ton Of an insoluble iodine Of gold, due
to impurities in one or other of the so
lutiOns. In specially severe cases DR..
Shurly advises DR.. Ingalls, to employ in
halations Of chlorine gas in connection
with the iodine and gold. DR.. Shurly
modestly states that while he makes no
such claims for his method as is made
for the Koch lymph, he has some results
that he is very proud Of, and he gives
the outline of a few of these.
