Chicago Tribune: The eldest son Of
the famous Sioux chief, Sitting Bull, is
now a thrifty and prosperous boot
black in Philadelphia. His Indian
name is Montezuma, but he is known
TO his friends and patrons as Harry
Parker. He is a graduate Of the In
dian school at Carlisle, where he took
high honors both in the classics and as
an athlete. When he left college he
found 1t difficult to get a position
where he could use his education, but
he determined that he would not re-
main idle. Without wasting time he
promptly set up in business as a boot
black, and he now owns and conducts
one of the most prosperous stands n
Philadelphia. He has saved consider
able money and is about to open sew
eral branch stands in other parts OF
the city. Montezuma is married to
Winonah, a full blood Sioux girl. whose
father was one Of the great chiefs Of
the tribe, and they have two children.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parker, as they are gen.
orally called, own a pretty home and
are in every respect model citizens OF
the Quaker city.

A THIEF THAT Is A THIEF.
He Can Steal a Sock or n Mans Foot I'm
known to Him.

Chicago Chronicle: Talking about
slick thieves" said Captain LAWN of
the stock yards police station, 1.-The I'M
crowned king is n Polish Jew, who
lives out in my district. II he had as
much brain matter as he has ingenuity,
and as much daring for big crimes as
he has for small ones, a Sherlock
Holmes couldn't get within a miles
walk of him in a thousand years. You
smile.
ASK the boys who keep a watchful
eve over the unsophisticated stock
r~aisers who the man Is they fear the
most. They will tell you II is Moses
Klinxi. He is afraid of turning a big
trick, but when II comes to getting a
watch chain, an ~ovcrcoat, some trlnket
or the spare coins in a stockman's
pocket Moses beats any light-hnSered
artist In the country.
"During the live stock show Moses
stole a stocking off the foot Of a Cana
dian, who had a pen of Cotswolds on
exhibition; stole 1t when the fellow had
his big cowhide boots on, n never
disturbed the boot of the foot that the
stocking was on, and the fellow was
wide awake when It was done. One Of
my men caught Moses while he was
getting away with the goods.
There were half a dozen people
dIOuIlu iNtitA " AS" iSNN S~~I
breeder and Moses when the theft was
committed. This Is no fairy tale.
TT was one OF the big days of the
show continued the captain. THE
Canadian was busy talking TO some
western people about his breed Of sheep.
He was sitting on a bale of hay. Moses
was shambling through the sheep Sec
ton. How he escaped my men and got
inside is something that he alone could
IN IT, aAoaI nm IN the Orniln a rnnn6
the Canadian. One Of my plain-clothes
men caught sight of him, and he no.
ticed that Moses was busy with his
hands.
"He could not see what the fellow
was doing, and waited. In a few mo-
ments Moses dropped something into
his overcoat pocket. The plain-clothes
man ooh hold of him. and. reaching
| into the overcoat pocket, drew out a
hall of red yarn. He walke Moses
| back to the group, and. holding out the
ball OF yarn, asked IL any Of the men
had been touched They looked and
shook their heads negatively.
The Mex morning the Cauadian
came over to the police station He
wanted TO know II that old Jew was
under arrest. Moses had been run In
on general principles, and l asked the
caller wha had happened to him. He
held up a red sock. The Jew stole the
other he said to me. See here and
he put his cowhide boot on a chair in
my office and pointed to a little hole In
the toe. Yesterday afternoon that fell
low stole my sock through this hole.
He unraveled 1t and wound it into a
ball. me of your men caught him, but
/ did not know the yarn belonged to
me until last night, when l pulled of
my boot and | found the sock was
gone
Moses admitted the theft. He said
he saw a bit Of the red sock through
the hole in the toe of the boot, and he
noticed hat It was a good quality of
yarn, and, taking the blade of his knife,
he started the raveling, knowing the
mar was too busy talking to pay any
attention to the loss of a sock"
