NEW ENGLAND.

Wherever thought is deep and strong,
Wherever conscience fights with wrong,
Wherever manhood dares to die
And wOmanhood Is pure and high,
On mountain peak or plain or sea,
The souls one cry must ever be,
Thank God for old New Englandl
The warriors sword and poets pen
Are thine to WELD, but only when
The cause OF right demands the blow,
When thou wouldAt lay proud error low.
Then only does thy face of love
Grow dark with sternness from above,
Oh, grandly great New Englandl
For those enslaved in life, in thought,
Thy blood, thy tongue, hath freedom
bought.
The arm Of justice in its might,
The thrilling voice Of truth and right,
The patriot ardor, glowing warm
With courage calm in battle storm,
Are in thy name, New Englandl

A HARD-WORK1NG WOMAN

sooner or later suffers from backache,
nervous, wOrn-out feelings, or a sense of
weight In the abdomen, dragging down
sensations and dizziness. 1t will all come
to an end with DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scriptiOn for It's woman's special tonic
and nervine; 1t restores her strength, reg
ulates and promotes all the natural func-
tions and makes new woman Of her.
Uterine debility, iTegularity and infam-
nation are most often the cause OF the
extreme nervousness and lrritabllity Of
some women-the medicine to cure 1t
is the Prescription" IL Dr. Pierce. All
the aches, pains and weaknesses Of wO-
manhood vanish where 1t is faithfully en-

is therefore just the medicine for young

Odds and Ends for Women.

Every woman will be glad to know that
high collars are no longer the thing. We
are to wear the soft pretty things in the
neck and give our long suffering heads
a chance to come down from its lofty
pedestal. Ties Of any dainty sort are to be
worn, lace ones being the most dressy.

In almost every magazine one finds
some article on outdoor exercise for wo-

to the fact that too many women stay in

more than any medicine.

men to be sculptors, but that is all past.

The walking skirts which are such a
blessing to women should be adopted ev-
erywhere. Unless a great many women
wear them they will remain odd and the
few who wish to use them will refrain ON
this account. Why not adopt them for
our walking, for the rainy day and the
muddy day? They are an essential to
health. The filth and dirt taken up by a
sweeping skirt is horrible to think Of

Directors of Artesian Well
Take Definite Action.

The directors Of the Vinita Ar

met last night and decided to ac-
cept the contract Of Mr.. C. G..
Brant, practically as outlined in
last evenings Daily Chieftain. A
resolution was passed to at once
lake demand notes for the en-
tire amount of the subscription.
This for the reason that payment
is not to be made until depth of
500 or 1000 feet is reached and
the officers Of the company did
not care to hold the stock holders
money for sixty to ninety days.
Some Of the board felt that it
would not be j0dicious TO take any
action until q city ordinance had
been passed for use Of the streets
and alleys. As ali memoers ol
the council are interested in the
project, and as no contract for
water is TO be asked, such pre-
caution seems hardly necessary.

had two women. The youngest
and apparently the fayorite, was
probably Cheyenne Jennie, ="
from the description Of her cos
tune, which was gaudy in the ex-
treme and was set off by pair Of
pistols and belt of cartridges. 1t
| is related that she ruled the tribe
and was woman of superior abil-
Iity, being a born commander and
gifted with diplomatic skill. She
was tall and slight of statue, with
long black hair and even features.
Once when her tribe was aDgered
with her husband and was on the
point OF having him banished from
the tribe, che said it was not to be.
She, with rare skill, adjusted the
difficulty and gave the Indians a
severe lecture.
At that time Mr.. Chouteau in
company with Graham Rogers,
Jonathan Blackfeather. Joe White,
Amos Dicks father and others
were out in search of a home
for the Shawnees. The gov
ernment officials told them to
make selection on any Indian
lands and they would endeavor to
bring about an arrangement for
their purchase. The party stayed
for several days at Wichita and
being unable to ford the Arkansas.
Mr.. Rogers hired fiat boat which
Greiffenstein used to ferry his
freight wagons over, to take them
across.
1t was drifting some distance
away from the Greiffenstein story,
and was perhaps another one prop
erly, but Mr.. Chouteau went on to
tell of their further experience at
land hunting. They went to Deep
Fork where at that time part of
the Absentee Shawnees were liv-
ing, and then turned east into the
Greek country. The Greek chief
sent for them and tried to get them

Mr.. Rogers asked Mr.. Chouteau If
he thought they could make liv-
ing there and he replied, "of
course we can-these folks are do
ing So" In the course of his
story Mr.. Chouteau said he wished
they had bought in there, for the
reason they had always had end

"DUTCH BILL"
"reminiscences of VIM. Chou
teaul Of This City.

William Greifienstein, founder
of Wichita, whose death was an
nounced a few days since, in the
Chickasaw nation, had probably
as wide an acquaintance as any
frontiersman in the west. Among
those who knew him for a great
many years was William Chou
teau, of this city. Among the In
dians he was known as "Dutch
Bill" though it is more than like
ly this sobriquet was first bestow-
ed bya white man. Mr.. Chouteau
first knew Greidenstein at West
port, where he had a store. Az
terwards he run across his trading
outfit on the plains, for he moved
as the Indians naoved, exchanging
the various articles they needed
for buffalo hides, which in those
days was the principal commodity
of barter. The last time our
townsman ever saw Greiffenstein
was at bis trading post at the
mouth of the Little Arkansas. the
site Of the present city Of Wichita,
where there was a large Wichita
ani Caddo Indian encampment
with few Comanches, who
could always be found anywhere
they could go horseback. There
are a good many stories about
Greiffenstein's wives--who they
were, etc. 1t is just possible in
those free and easy days the old
man was somewhat like Jim Bled-
soc, the engineer of the Prairie
Bell, who had a wife at either end
of his run. In column or two Of
"reminiscences in a Wichita paper
it is said his first wife was Chey-
enne-"Cheyenne Jennie and
his second Pottawatomie. Mr..

less trouble here securing their
rights. But Graham Rogers had
been down the military road on
the way to Ft. Smith, 1855, where
the treaties were made, and his
eyes were set. He had camped
one night at a spring on what we
now know as the C0rnatzer place,
"and that id spring." said
the narrator, "was responsible for
our coming here" The place was
owned by a Cherokee woman and
on his first visit Mr.. Rogers asked
her if she would sell it to him if
the Shawnees came to the Chero-
kee nation, and she said she would.
As IS we'll known, Mr.. Rogers car
ried his point and when the re-
moval occurred he bought the
place. Much to Mr.. Chouteau's
satisfaction the spring went dry in
a year or two, and we believe it is
still dry.

Says She Saw Heaven.

WHEELING, W. Va, Aug. TO-
Mrs. Alexander Taylor, widow 80
years old, Of Toronto, near here, has
been slowly dying Of consumption for
a week. Yesterday morning she be-
came unconscious. A doctor was
called and pronounced her dead, and
funeral preparations were begun.
About midnight her friends were as
tonished to see Mrs. Taylor move, open
her.eyes and ask for water.
She asked, it is said, that favorite
niece, who lives in Iowa, be summoned
at once to receive message from her
mother, who has been dead several
years Mrs. Taylor says her spirit
was disembodied and scared through
space till a brilliant and beautiful
grove was reached. Here angels were
flying about, guarding what seemed
the entrance to Heaven. She was re-
fused admittance, but was allowed to
converse at short distance with her
husband. who died last winter, and
with her sister, the mother Of the fa-
vorite niece.
The message sent for the niece she
