Gen. Clusters Horse.

Almost every day newspaper read
ers see a paragraph telling how the
government takes care of old Conan
che, Clusters horse. the only survivor
OF the Custer massacre, says the De
trott Free Press. The paragraph al
Ways tells how by special order Of
b military authorities Comanche Is
provided with a comfortable stall. fit-
ted up especially for him. vi In Da-
kota. No one, SO the story goes. Is al
lowed to ride him. and he Is not per-
mitted to do any work whatever.
Then. as one writer put IL feelIngly
a few days ago: "Riddled with bullets
and Scared by saber wounds. his body
speaks eloquently OF the perilous duty
once performed in his twenty-five
years OF service under the government.
He will go down to history holding
about as proud a place as that accord
ed to the gallant black charger that
once carried Gen. Sheridan to thu
held in time to save the battle. twenty
miles away" Once all this might have
been said with every indication o.
truth. The paragraph. however, with
various additions and changes. has
made the grand rounds Just as regu-
larry as the good old sea-serpent story.
Still there u be an end to all things.
and the Comanche paragraph ought tc
be ended after this letter: Il mai You
today picture Of Comanche as he APP
peared In life. We do not possess any
photograph Of him as he appeared In
his stall. He died from old age at Fort
Riley. Kas., Nov. 7. 1891. and was 81
years old. He belonged to the Sew
enth regiment OF United States cav
airy. and was cared for with great
tenderness by the regiment. Upon his
death he was skinned and mounted by
Prof. Dyche OF this university and
placed I'm our museum.
Fl. II. SNOW.
Chancellor University OF Kansas.
Thus II will be seen that, according
to the newspapers, Comanche. though
dead. still liyeth. Perhaps It Is be-
cause the man who writes the para
graph has not yet learned to dlstln-
guish between a stuffed and a live ami

The practice of medicine is changing
the time has passed when doctor will
order all kinds of mixtures; the medi
cines today are rational and scientific
and the doctor realizes that his reputa

knows why certain kinds of water ant
certain kinds of baths are beneficial
and if he knows of Hot Springs and its
varied advantages there are in his ex

benefit his patient-and therefore
himself and also Hot Springs. Con

that is that it will be the first health

There are here in this society medical
men who are up to the times and they
have it in their power to do much for
Hot Springs. With harmonious un-

of the regular program and thanked
those present for their courtesy and
attention and for the honor with which
he had been favored in being called
