Crazed Engineers.

Insanity Is very frequent among rail-
way employees. Two dramatic illustra-
tons can be mentioned There is living
III New Jersey, not far from Philadel-
piia, man who for many years was
the foremost Passenger engineer between
New York and Philadelphia on the
Pennsylvania railroad. He ran all the
specials and best trains, and in 10 years
never had sn accident One night in
the CLEAN of the headlight he saw a
woman. He had only time to see her
hands raised and to hear her CRY, and
before he could put his hand upon the
lever he felt a jerk under the wheels
and knew that all was over. Since that
night he has never been ON an engine.
For months he did not sleep and later
became practically insane, but only on
the one point of seeing and hearing the
woman his engine killed. Now he goes
about harmlessly and aimlessly, but he
has to be kept away from railroads, and
IN his fretful sleep he awakes with cries
and paroxysms of horror The other
case is that of a man who was conductor
CT a train on the Camden and Amboy,
whose train had an accident He came
out all right himself, but it proved so
upon his mind that one night he left his
home, and going to the point where the
accident occurred threw himself in
front of a passing train, receiving in
Juries from which he died. -Philadel-

SPOUSE OF A SIOUX PRINCESS
Charles r. Jordan. Cousin Of General Custer
and q Typical Border Scout.

The queen of the Sioux is the wife of
o white man. Neither of them is or has
any reason to be ashamed of it. Red
Cloud, without question the greatest
Indian chief Of this generation, gave
her away at the altar Oh the Sioux res
ervation. The Sioux queens husband is
Charles p. Jordan, brother of Lieuten-
ant Colonel Jordan, United States ar
my, cousin of General Custer and one
OF the most tried representatives of the
government in the Indian country. He
bears the honor of being the only white
man who was ever elected a member of
the Sioux council. In their days of pow
er, before hardly single white face had
been seen west of the Missouri river
the Dakotas (Sioux) were one nation,
ruled by one chief. The last of this au-
tocratic dynasty was Old Smoke, who
died III 1859 after seeing his people
pushed westward and his power curtail-
ed. Although the husband of more than
one squaw, he left but one child, tiny
girl, who could hardly COO when Old
Smoke got ready to float upward TO the
happy hunting grounds. When dying,
he took her in his arms and named her
The Beautiful Woman, and SO she has
lnce been known. The Beautiful Wom-
IN was a princess. She did no work,
but learned of missionaries, scorned dog
meat and kept her nails trimmed and
her glorious Slack hair plated and
combed. She grew TO womanhood, high
spirited, proud and capricious-an ideal
sQuaw. But as no ideal chief came to
WOO her she scorned an alliance with
any common member of the tribe
Young Jordan, a tall, bright eyed
fellow of good education and address,
came west as clerk TO the Indian agent
at Pine Ridge. He fell in love with the
princess, and his love was reciprocated
by the Sioux maiden. And so they were
married by a priest in stole and surplice
and with all the formalities of the white
man laws and customs The big Sioux
chiefs came from miles around to attend
the wedding, the army officers from the
neighboring posts jingled their spurs in
the Old Virginia reel, which followed
the benedictioD, and the pretty Sioux
queen has since been plain Mrs. Jordan
A bevy of black eyed children bless the
alliance. Charles p. Jordan, the Sioux
queens husband, has lived ON the from
tier for many years. He is still in his
prime, and his adventures would fill q
booh-or several of them. He has been
scalped, shot full of arrows, has been
tortured and even condemned to death
by the hostiles- Thirty miles from Rose
bud agency he has a fine farm and stock
ranch, well wooded with oak. elm, ash
and box elder. There is big orchard
of cultivated fruits close by and series
of artificial dams down the valley, in
which beaver are encouraged TO con-
struct their own peculiar Notifications.
