WHAT might prove good ground

the Eastern papers occurred upon the
:eded lands west of Pierre the other
day. Two cowboys known as Jim Quinn
passed some Indians in camp. Suddenly.
. dog ran out and bit Reddy's horses
The cowboy leaped from his saddle and
hit the dog with a club. The Indians
did not like this and started for the,
boys. They mounted their horses and,
rode away. Travelling q few miles,
they stopped for lunch. While thus
engaged, they espied q party of In
dams on horseback making for them
at q wild gallop. They quickly mount
sd their horses and commenced their
mad flight to Fort Pierre, some twenty
miles away. The cowboy "Reddy'
had the best horse, and soon left his
companion in the rear, notwithstand-
ing his earnest protestation not to let,
him be scalped by the wild and woollN
redmen. Reddy never stopped until
he reached Fort Pierre, and there hel
related his miraculous escape from the
Indians, and said that he thought his
brother cowboy had undoubtedly been
taken in by the Indians. A searching
and rescuing party was Immediately
sent out for Jim" 1t was about dusk
when they started out. They were out
all night, but no trace of him could be
found, aud in the morning another
party started out. They O found
him about six miles from Fort Pierre.
His horse tired out and he was Obliged
to lie out all night. He was still pretty
badly scared. but stated that soon after
dark he got away from the Indians.
Upon investigation it was learned that
the Indians who were after the boys
were on their way to Forest City and
We're not the ones who owned The dog.
They saw the boys near the camp fire
and noticed their sudden light. So
they yelled. and this had the proper
effect. ard they let out their horses
until they had had sport enough, and
then turned off and resumed their
Journey. They say they had cheap big
time with papoose cowboys" The dog
which the boys knocked owe was not
seriously hurt even. Other Indian
wars have probably started on us little

Range Story.

A LITTLE incident in Lyman County
shows why the country west of the
Missouri River in this state is such a
good stock country. Two men started
out from Oacoma the other day to
hunt up stray cattle. They were sue.
cessful and returned home bringing
with them fifty head of cattle which
they found in various parts of Lyman
County, where they had strayed.
Among the recovered cattle were some
that had been gone from their range
two years. During all this time the
cattle had .'hunted'' for themselves,
winter and summer, and when found
were in .first-class condition.

The old gentleman had been trying

Now, Tommy" he said "rll be
president of this bank and you'll be
cashier. Your mother and sisters will

The old gentleman put in dime,
Tommy and his sisters nickel each,

Wen let what put in represent the

the old gentleman. You keep track of
what the others put in, and when we
open the bank the interest will be di-
vided proportionately among the de-
positors
Tommy said he thought he under

each one had deposited.
For couple Of weeks all went

Why not?"

severely, rs he looked in the direction

"'Why, you can drop them off the
rear PLATFORM said some one, and the
conductor and brakeman were asked
about it and said they would let him
know when the train neared Ketner.
They did so, and the old gentleman car
ried the box through from the smoker
to the rear coach. -Four or five fellows
followed to see the result of the
experiment. The old man steadied him
self by the ratings and got down on
the lower step.

hold, caught him by the coat-tails.
With jerk that would have done credi,
to a baseball-pitcher he sent the box
from his hand, and as it scared towards
the ground the firm look on his mouth
broke out into wide grin. But it died
away into look of establishment, fol
the box struck the end of the log, and a

Girdles and Sleeves.

A girdle of soft folds of velvet or satin,
unlined and without bones, is very use
full in giving the round waist it's proper
dimensions. 1t can be made very wide
and full for those who are too slight
and long, while for large and short
waists it is narrowed and pointed in
front or else carried slightly over the
hips to increase the apparent length.
The semi-empire waist aud girdle used
by Worth is exceedingly becoming to
those who consider themselves too
long-waisted There is little new to be
said of sleeves. The top is invariably
pulled in some way. The dropping
bell puff widening toward the elbow
now rivals the round balloon puff of
empire gowns If very great fullness
is required, two puffs are used, one
long and full around the armhole with
gathers in the joining seam, and a
smaller puff above the elbow. A droop-
ing frill is also now much used about
the elbow, whether of velvet like the
puffs on a close lower sleeve, or else of
lace to complete the sleeve Slashed
puffs of velvet inlaid with lace or satin
are very elegant at the top of cloth or
silk sleeves. -lIarpers Bazaar
