AN UNDOUBTED CURE,

No one who has not been similarly
cursed with the disease of drink can
know the joy of the moment in which my
cure came to me as fact. I do not be.
lieve, know that am cured, and am
satisfied as to its permanency. did not
doubt twenty years ago that I was cured
of the chills and fever; did not doubt,
when this last May came around with its
blossoms of spring, that my cure was per-
manent, and that the appetite for drink
was eradicated. / do not understand the
processes, but l know the fact. Said Mr..
George Work, of this city, who was one
of my companions at Dwight, II tell my
friends that all I know about it is that I
went to Dwight. and there DR.. Keeley
cured me )" and as be said this thought
unconsciously of the blind man by the
POOL of Sloan. and his reply to the
doubters who gathered around and tor
mented him. To all of US who suffered
and have been healed it is resurrection.
As passed along the street year ago,
and was greeted by my friends, I knew
that they looked upon me as slave to
habit. They knew how we'll had
fought, but they bad no balief in my final
victory. However strong and healthy l
might appear at the time, they looked on
me as doomed. I felt it and could see
the pity in their eyes. I always moved
among them as the gladiator of old
Rome, who, with the blue sky of Italia
over his head, Caesar before his face, and
shouting multitude surrounding him,
knew that whatever Temporary triumphs
he might win, the white sands at his feet
would one day drink his blood. Always,
as I walked among my fellows, the words
of doom came to my lips, 'Morituri de
salutamus." To day meet my fellow.

After travellers on the Canadian Pa
ciAc are fairly launched upon the great
plains west of Manitoba they see many
reminders Of the buffalo. Stretching
over the plains as far as the eye can reach,
crossing one another in perfect not
work, are the innumerable paths in which
the buffaloes trod one behind another In
almost countless numbers. The little
knolls, too, are thickly dotted with buffa-
10 wallows, whore the animals had dug
up the earth with their horns and rolled
in the dust, or, what suited them better,
visited the wallow after shower, and
enjoyed the luxury of mud bath. Hero
and there, too, one sees the skeletons OF
the noble animal. Rutnot many Of them
are seen from the railroad cars, for near.
ly all the skeletons within seven miles Of
the track have been gathered together
and brought to the railroad, where they
are piled up, ready for shipment. At
many of the places far from the stations,
these great piles Of buffalo bones are
heaped. They are laid up as regular az
so much cord wood. The piles are about
eight feet high, twelve feet wide and any
where from fifteen to fifty feet long. The
outer layer is made by piling up the
skulls, with the frontal portion outside,
and within this wall the bones are heap.
ed promiscuously,
It will give an idea Of the epormous
quantity OF these skeletons when the fact
is mentioned that within radius Of two
miles of station on the railroad to Prince
Albert $500 skeletons were picked up.
Out of sight of the railroad track thess
skeletons may still be found In eonntlesa
numbers, and the industry of gathering
them will be continued until they have
all been removed from the prairiea.
These animals were the victims very
largely Of the Indians, who killed the
stupid beasts frequently, only to get their
tongues, which were esteemed by the In
dians as a particularly delicate morsel.
The bones are taken to Chicago and other
places where sugar is refined, are ground
up and play some part III the Work Of re.
fning. A favorite diversion Of many OF
the tourists when the train stops is to Wis.,
1t one of the bone heaps, knock out few
buffalo teeth and carry them away as rel
les.
The wood buffalo, closely allied to tha
bison, now exterminated, still roams in
the forests far north Of the Saskatchewan.
His numbers, however, are constantly
decreasing, and there is every prospect
that he will meet the fate Of his prairie
relative. In the course of time, as ranches
are extended and grasses are sown, the
buffalo paths and wallows will be oblite-
rated, and no relics Of the cisop will then
be found on the great prairies Whioh were
once all his own. Z

Lynch law does not reform or intimidate..
There has been more Of these horrible

He wants the good ones to 60 and set up

the good ones to stay, and that would
take large majority. At all events they

our people that the whites and the blacks
cannot live together in peace much long

The deputy warden Of the Sioux

kratx Popp, the horse thief, from the
Morrison county authorities. He
was taken back to serve out his term
OF five years for horse stealing.
Pankratz Popp has. according to
his wife's story, had an interesting
time since he left here two years ago,
his career being very successful until
he was caught. His wife says that
while they lived in North Dakata
Pankratz brought home fourteen
stolen horses, after each raid solemn
ly promising her that he would not
break the law again. However he
couldn't resist the temptation to
secure money 80 easily, and kept ut
the business until he was caught.
When he went to Jail for the last
theft (which was in South. Dakota)
his wife came to her home in Rich
Prairie. Then she promised her par
ents to have nothing more to do with
Popp. She had occasional letters
from him in the penitentiary, and
two months ago received onestating
that he would call on her in March.
