CALLED HIM A PIG.
Cause of the Duel Between DR.. Wolff
and Count Badeni

London. Sept 27.-The Vienna cores
pondent of the Daily Mail says this
morning:
i'The duel between Count Badeni the
Austrian premier, and DR.. Wolff, the
German Nationalist leader, has caused
the widest sensation. 1t arose out OF
the scenes at the opening at the relchs-
rath when Count Badeni with arms
crossed and head on his breast, listened
unmoved by the clamor and gestlcula-
tions of the German party His attltude
was most irritating. The WhOle ieIt
formed a threatening group around
him, conspicuous among them being
the great lean face of Wolff, as he
pressed forward and thrust his fist into
Count Badeni's face, saying: If this IS
your policy, it is miserable chicanery.
Some declared that Wolff called him
a Polish pig. He was pulled back
by his colleagues, but continued utter
early on Friday, Count Badeni sent
his seconds to DR.. Wolff, who accepted
the challenge. The premier sent tel
egram to the emperor asking permis-
sion to fight the duel and at the same
time rendering his resignation. In re-
ply he received not only permission to
fight but also the imperial approval
Count Badeni then made his will, after
which he spent the evening at the
jockey club and a pleasure resort. His
wife and family knew nothing about
the affair until the duel was over.

riding school. Count Badeni's seconds
We're Marshal Count Observation-Disclosures
commanding the Vienna garrison, and
Colonel Relish, former adjutant general
of the emperor. DR.. WOlff'S seconds
were two German deputies. The con-
ditiOns of the duel were three shots at
twenty-five PAGES. At the first dis
charge the premiers ball struck the
ground fifteen PAGES from his antagon-
list. The latter's ball struck Count
Badeni in the right arm. He stag
gered back to his chair, and was then
taken home, where the bullet was ex-
tracted.
There are no symptoms of fever and
Count Badeni is conducting affairs as
usual. 1t is thought that, as the pre-
mier has set the example with the en-
peror's approval, there will be seri-
Gus epidemic of dueling. The Arbei-
deni is liable to imprisonment for from
one to five years.

SAT- ON THE TANK.
Cool Attempt at Train Robbery in
Minnesota.

Moorhead MINI, Sept. 27.-The west
bound passenger train on the Northern
Pacific railway was held up three miles
north of here at an early hour this
morning. 1t is said the express car
carried large sum of money, which the
robbers failed to secure, owing to a
bIunder in cutting off the cars. The
robbery was the coolest piece of work
imaginable.
Engineer Hoover, just after pulling
out of EIyndon, noticed a man on the
front platform of the mail car A few
minutes later the robber climbed over
the tank and, at the point of pistol,
told the engineer to apply the brakes.
The other robbers came forward, bring
ing in the conductor and brakemen. All
mounted the engine. which was again
started west. The rObber sat on the
tank, and ordered the engineer to- keep
her moving" Not until the train reach
ed MOorhead was it known that the en-
gine and mail car had been cut off
from the balance of the train. When
the other robbers discovered that they
had not cut deep enough into the train
to secure the express safes, they rapid-
ly despoiled the crew of watches and
money and made their escape.

before the camp kettles were boiling,
ana 1t was another hour before there
was any breakfast
w nile the women were preparing the
meal the men made no move to erect
the tepees, but as soon as the meal vas
out OF the way, the Squaws set to work
time they had everything ready and the
canVaseS were spread over the poles.
one man was seen chopping wood, but
as rule the men left the work to the
women, and there was no hesitancy or
WaVer1ng on the part of the women
They took hold as if they knew what
was expected and intended to perform
their duty.
The party is in charge of Robert
Burns, full blood Arapahoe He is
clerk to the Indian agent and is cultur-
ed and educated. He speaks English
well and acts as interpreter for the
CheyenneS. He wears the dress of
civilization. Cleaver Warden is in
charge of the Arapahoe division. He is
also a full blood and like Burns, is
graduate of the Indian school at Car
Isle, Pa.
There are a large number of chiefs
and ex-chiefS in the party Among
them are Man on a Cloud, who is an
old warrior and is known as the dane
ing chief; Three Fingers, Cloud Chief,
Little Chief, Bear Bow, High Walker,
Prairie Chief, Little Wolf, Washee Ute
Chief, Black Coyote, Lizard, Little Bird
and Sitting Bull.
1t was Sitting Bull who originated the
Messiah dance, which caused so much
trouble. He is no relation to old Sit
ting Bull, who was killed several years
ago.
Robert Burns, in speaking Of the
Messiah craze, said:
There was really nothing harmful
in what is known the Messiah dance,
though it is no longer danced, by the
Indians. 1t was simply a religious GER
emony, and anyone would dislike to
have his religious devotions interfered
with
The so-called Ghost dance" contin-
ued Mr.. Burns lis also the most harm
less little dance that can be imagined.
The Indians simply move around slow
ly in a circle. A great deal has been
said about these dances and very little
of it is true"
HubbeI Big Horse is another educat-
ed Indian who speaks the English Ian
guage quite as well as his own. He
has a tepee covered with beaded work
and also has a very fine suit which he
will use in the dances. Some of the
Indian women have suits valued at
$3.50 though they would probably not be
considered quite society gowns by To-
peka'S 400.
A large crowd gathered around the
Indian camp all day and policemen had
to be detailed to keep the people back.
The chiefs, who are so numerous, are
elected but once in ten years. and their
rule is absolute. There are 40 chiefs
and they select two head chiefs.
Washee is the only chief of the first
magnitude in the party, and he does
not speak English.
Some of the women in the Indian
camp are graduates of colleges. but
they have all gone back to the life of
drudgery, which is the portion of In
dian women.
The first Indian dance will be given
tomorrow evening in front of the grand
stand The Indians are anxious to
show their ability in the art of terpsi-
chore, and they say they Will dance eV-
cry day if necessary.

MR.. STAGG HAD NOTES,
Which Enabled Him to Duplicate
Lost Stockyards Case Papers

W. ]. Stagg, by keeping copy of the
tabulated figures pertaining to the busi-
ness of the Kansas City stockyards, made
as the result of expert examination
of the company's books, has been able to
mend a serious difficulty, caused by the
disappearance of the original copies filed
with the report and findings made by
Geo. W. Clark as special master.
These statistics disappeared from the
federal court, wherein they were filed,
causing much CONSERVATION among the
parties interested in the fight against the
stockyards company.
Mr.. Stagg has made duplicate copies of
the financial exhibits which have been
filed in court to take the place of those
which have disappeared.
No one pretends to youchsafe a theory
as to the cause of the disappearance and
no effort is made to locate the RESPONSE
bility.

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges
ton by Dieting a Barbarous
and Useless One.

We say the old way but really it is
a very common one at present time and
many dyspepticS and physicians as
we'll consider the first step to take in
attempting to cure indigestion is to diet,
either by selecting certain foods and
rejecting others or to greatly diminish
the quantity usually taken. in other
words the starvation plan is by many
supposed to be the first essential
The almost certain failure of the
starvation cure for dyspepsia has been
proven time and again but still the
moment Dyspepsia makes it's appear
ance course of dieting is at once ad-
yised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is
foolish and unscientific to recommend
dieting or starvation to a man suffering
from Dyspepsia because Indigestion
itself starVes every organ and every
nerve and every fibre in the body.
What the Dyspeptic wants is abund-
ant nutrition, which means plenty of
good, wholesome, well-cooked food and
something to assist the weak stomach
TO digest it. This is exactly the pur-
pose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's are adapted and this is the method
by which they cure the worst cases of
Dyspepsia. in other words the patient
eats plenty of wholesome food and
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets digests it
for him In this way the system is
nourished and the overworked stomach
rested, because the tablets viii digest
the food whether the stomach works or
not One of these tablets will digest
5000 grains of meat or eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets is the pureSt
and safest remedy sold for stomach
troubles and every trial makes one
more friend for this excellent prepara-
ton Sold at Scots for full sized pack

RUSH FOR SERUM.
Physicians Eager to Experimentation
ConsumptiVes.

New York, Sept. 27.-Interest in the ap-
parent cure of 14-year-old Rosina Cat
lano of hasty consumption is widening
daily. Maragliano's serum, to which the
cure is attributed, is now assured of a
complete test of it's merit.
DR.. Tanoni, in boldly and successfully
employing the serum in the Catlano case
has set an example which other physi-
clans are anxious to follow. At his home
66 West Tenth street, today, DR.. Tanoni
showed a bundle of letters received in the
morning mail from brother profession
ais.
''T'he interest in this case is astound-
ing said he. 1T looks as if / should
be literally swamped in applications for
information. These letters come from
well known physicians in Pittsburg, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, Albany and a dozen
other cities. All seek detailed informa-
ton, samples of the serum and full in
struction to other treatment.
My mail, too, has brought to me doz-
ems of letters from consumptives- am
answering them as rapidly s possible,

to make the experiments so successful
