BUT IT DOESN'T.
Many Have the Erroneous Idea
That Fat Makes Fat.
One Reason Of Cod Liver Oils Pop
uIarity.
Nevertheless Decidedly Wrong impression.

Fat taken into the stomach does not
make fat. Thousands of physicians
have prescribed cod liver oil for wast-
themselves in decline of weight
Physicians know that the fat or grease
IS not what is necessary to make fat
or tiss ue. TREY also know that II is
one of the main things that make cod
liver oil impractical in many cases.
The fat is too rich to be digested by
stomach weakened by disease.
When cod liver oil is given, often the
oil passes from the body in exactly the
same state In which II is received.
The reason doctors prescribe cod liver
oil is that it contains certain curative
properties Il is to take advantage Of
these same curative properties that
they have so often tried 10 force their
patients to take this horrible, greasy,
vile-smelling, nauseating remedy.
There are but few people who have
not had experience in one way or an
1nther with cod liver oil, and even the
thought of it's smell is enough to cause
a shrdder. When we think of these
things it is not strange that everyone
in our city is sounding the praise u

wonderful discovery and yet it would
be impossible to say too much in It's

He then reported to Gen Bacon on the
firing line as ready for duty and while
talking with Gen. Bacon an Indian sharp
shooter picked him out. Major Wilkin-
son was shot through the body from side
to side and died almost Immediately.
The agency Indians have been disposed
to be peaceful but. Thursday night one
of the lEdian police was killed by the
troops by mistake and the Indians are
now disposed to be hostile. The occur
renee was most unfortunate, but it is
hard to see how any blame can attach
TO the troops. The Indian policeman,
Ruslin who was said to be one of the
best of the agency Indians, had accom-
panied the troops and had fought val
iantly, but towards night he thought he
mad enough of it and started with an
other Indian policeman for the agency
along the shore without notifying Cen
eral Bacon. He was riddled with bullets
out his companion escaped uninjured
This incident has made the agency In
dians very angry and a council is said
TO have been held, last night.

INDIANS ARE GATHERING.
Bands from All Directions Concentrating at
Bear Island.

Minneapolis. Mimi, Oct. IA special
to the Journal from Walker, says:
Gus Beaulieu, who intimately knows
the Indians in and around Leech Lake,
is confident that they will at once ask
for terms Of peace.
Beaulieu, arriving in Walker, late
last night, brought word that four of
those for whom warrants have been
issued, have given themselves w to
the chiefs of their respective tribes by
whom they will be given up, today
AS proof that the intention of the In
dams are more friendly, Beaulieu
points out that all the Indians coming
into the agency are bringing their
wives.
Chief Gay-Gwa- One Way Bin Ming
of Bear Island, who has been one of the
most active in en1eavoring to repress
the rebellion, assured Lieut.. Hum
phrey yesterday, that everything
would be amicably settled within the
next "a hours and that his tribe was
anxious for peace.
y curier came in, this morning, from
a point % miles north and said that
during the past As hours more than
$50 Indians, all armed with Winches-
ters, have been counted by him alone
and that they are going in the direc-
ton of Bear Island.
One of the hostile chiefs, who was
spoken to, yesterday, on the point near
the narrows boosted that he had seen
armed men as thick as leaves in the
forest. and defied those on board the
boat to fire a shot.
DIR. Hart has brought his family into
Walker and all the white people at
the agency have followed his example
with single exception. Mrs. Smith,
one of the teachers.
People in and around Walker are APP
prehensive of the outcome and are de-
handing that the redskins be pursued
until they are broken in spirit and
thoroughly cowed. They say that if
the trouble is allowed to drop now IT
will be but short time before they
again become defiant, and that life and
property will not be safe unless the In
dams are eXterminated.
Inspector Tinker has wired Secretary
of the Interior Bliss asking for at least
5000 troops. Probably one-fifth of that
number will be more than sufficient &c
do all that remains to be done. One
of the most prominent citizens here
explains the migration of the Indians
toward Bear Island by saying that
they are probably on their way to the
agency to sign the rolls for peace, anc
that as soon as this is don there viii
be general exodus of Chippewa:
across the borders. He does not thinl
another shot will be fired.

THE WORST YET.
Situation Owing to Gathering for Indian Con.
ference Is Extremely Critical.

81. Paul, Minn., Oct. IA Walker.
Mimi, special to the Dispatch SAYS
the steamers Chief and leila left here.
at 3 O'Clock this morning, to bring Gen.
Bacon and men away from the main
land at the farther side of the lake.
The boats took barges around the
edges of which were piles of hay for
breastworks. A detachment of regulars
was sent with each boat by Col. Har-
bach.
Major P. H. Sutherland, Indian agent
at White Earth, and Dr. Hart, the sub
agent at Leech Lake agency, were
here, last night, to urge Col. Harbach
to send 100 men to the agency at once.
to reinforce Lieut.. Humphrey, late in
the afternoon, stating that he had no
apprehension of trouble there and that
Flat Mouth" chief of the Chippewas
said he deprecated the fight at Bear
Island point and that his tribe would
give no trouble. He would therefore
not send any soldiers to the agency
Col. Sheehan said, today: There
will be big conference on Indians, to-
day. There will be about 20 Bear Is
landers at this conference and they
will urge the Leech Lake Indians TO
take the opportunity to revenge them
selves for the killing of members of
their trib, the day before yesterday
There will be "a Cass Lake Indians at
this pow-wow.
They came in, last night. The Win
nebageshish Lake Indians will also be
represented at the conference. The
situation looks far worse, this minute
than it has at any time before. If the
troops were to leave here before the
trouble is fully settled not a white
family would remain in all this coun-
try. Indians by the dozen and the
score are gathering about the lake and
they are in an angry mood"
Godfrey Zeigler one of the wounded
privates in the hospital, says the fight
was very hot for 80 minutes One In
dian at the right of the line seemed to
hit a soldier every time he shot, and
when he fired another Indian at the
right let out a woop. Zeigler says this
Indian had a fine gun. 1t was he who
shot Sergeant Butler through the head
making three holes in his hat. The
hat is preserved by Zeigler, who Is
wounded in the right arm. He is quot
ed as saying: You ought to have
seen the reporters leg it when the fight
began. But they were mighty kind tC
the wounded afterwards
He says there were not over so In
dams engaged in the fight, and in this
he is supported by the statement OF
- several others. Two or three Indians
seemed to do all the damage.

Things Are Threatening.

Minneapolis. Oct. "A special to the
Journal from Walker says: A conference
between Indian Agent Sutherland and
the Chippewa Indians at this agency is
going on, and matters are again assum-
ing a threatening aspect.
Mrs Colby. who is employed at the
agency school as an instructor was, this
morning ordered to leave the agency by
Indians. and has just arrived. She fears
serious trouble within the next few hours
and says that the pretext of the bucks
who are constantly arriving at the agency

occasion.

CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.
A United States Marshall Didn't Keep His
Word in Liquor Case.

Chicago, Oct. THE Tribune says.
Some facts in connection with the
present trouble with the Pillager In
dams at Leech lake not generally
known are as follows: A year ago a
white man was arrested for selling
liquor to the Indians. The United
States marshals arrested Min-Jon-
Dab, a Piliager Indian of Bear Island,
who some years ago gained notoriety
by killing Chief Hole-in- the-Day. and
is reported to be bad Indian. having
killed seven of his own tribe in addi-
ton to Chief Hole-in-t the Day, and is
remarkable for his cunning and in
fluence with the balance of his tribe.
He still wears the old aboriginal blan-
ket of his forefathers and was never
known to live in any abode but tepee
or small tent of birch bark
The United States marshal arrested
him as a witness against the white
man for selling whiskey to them and
tok him to Duluth where the trial was
held, promising him transportation
from Walker to Duluth and return
with all expenses. When the trial was
over Min-Jon-Dah, it is said, had to
walk from Duluth to Walker, dis
lance of 100 miles, without money .,
food and arrived at Walker in mos
deplorable state, nearly starved t
death. He sWore before his tribe thai
