WILL LEAVE FORT YATES.
the Historic Post No Longer
Necessary.

Fort Yates, N. D.. will in a few
days be numbered among the aban-
doned posts of the United States army.
The abandonment of the post be-
gan two years ago and within a few
days the one company of Infantry
will transfer to Fort Lincoln and Fort
Yates will be only a spot on the army
map.
Fort Yates was established in 1876.
and for the next twelve years, or un-
til the Indian troubles became matters
of the army's past. it was one of the
most important western posts, hold
ing, as it does, an important strategic
point on the Missouri river about 25
miles from Pollock, S. D., which is the
nearest rail point.
With the tightening of reservation
lines and regulations, the Importance
of Yates began to wane, and the fact
that it was lot a post modern in a
majority of particulars fastened its
final abandonment.
The completion of Fort Lincoln rem
ders Yates no longer necessary for the
accommodation of troops, and Off
several months the garrison has con
sisted of only half a dozen officers
and sixty men.

TAKEN FOR A SPoTrER.
Grand Forker Doped at Cavalier BE-.
aus he Was a Spotter Suspect.

Grand Forks Herald: Chas. Fos-
ter. a stationary engineer. is in the
city recovering from a dose of drugs
administered by the proprietors and
patrons of q blind pig establishment
at Cavalier.
The experience of Mr.. Foster at
Cavalier as told by himself is rather
amusing and all his troubles arose
owe the belief that became general
there that he was a blind pig spotter
employed by the State Enforcement
League. Foster was out of a job and
was looking around for a desirable
position. Before leaving the city he
had been asked by T. C. Griffith to
get hold of a setter dog for him, which
he promised to do. At Cavalier he
visited a place where intoxicants were
to be had and a number of people met
him there. Being a stranger he was
watched somewhat, but he was con
science free and when he ran across
a dog that he thought would suit Mr..
Griffith he stepped into a business
place and %telephoned DR.. Davidson,
stating that he had found q dog which
he thought would suit "R. B." mean
ing Mr.. Griffith. From this end of
the line he vas informed that it was
not R. B. Griffith who wanted a dog but
T. c. Griffith, and that it was to be a
setter dog, and not a pointer, as the
dog he had in mind. Evidently Mr..
Foster did not understand the initials
clearly and in his talk over the phone
continued to refer to "R. B." This was
enough to cause some discussion at the
Cavalier end of the line owing to the
fact of r. B. Grifith's connection with
the Enforcement League and the con-
clusion was at one reached that Fos-
ter was a spotter, and arrangements
were made to give him a reception.
When he returned and asked for a
drink, it was given him and it came
near ending his life He was locked
in a room nearby, which he finally
broke out of and sought a physician.
who gave him relief and informed him
thai the dose he had taken was a mix
ture of whiskey, croton oil and cay
enne pepper. Mr.. Foster at once
wanted satisfaction for his treatment,
but was informed that the best thing
he could do was to get out of town,
and it is claimed that a number of cit
liens accompanied him to the train, to
be sure that he did go. The friends
of Foster here are greatly incensed at
his treatment and a letter sent to a
prominent man there yesterday who
Is charged with being one of those in
terested in the treatment handed out
to Fosters health was such that he
would not be able to work for some
time and that a check for $50 would
be expected by return mail. The
/ check did not arrive last night and
there is likely to be prosecution that
will be interesting.

Outdoor Gymnasium.

Wichita IS son TO have its out door gym
nasium. The Young Mems Christian As
sociation which secured several vacant
lots in the fourth block on the east side
Of North Main street ARE quickly fitting
them up for outdoor athletics.
Between the lots and the street are
large bill boards. The rest OF the grounds
have Deen fenced with high wire netting.
Tennis and hand ball are 10 be the lead
ing features. The ground for the ten
MS court has already been smOothed off
and as soon as city water can be put in
the grounds Will be thoroughly soaked.
and the large steam roller which is used
on the West Douglas avenue pavement,
will be run over the grounds. This viii
make the ground firm, hard and compact
and the Y NJ c. y tennis court will be
one of the best in the city. Many of the
Y VI. c. A boys are good tennis play
ers and others have expressed a desire
TO learn. They will now have an oppor-
tunity to secure healthy oUt-of-dOors exer-
cose.
For developing, suppleness and the
wind" probably hand ball is even better
than tennis. Handball has been played
but little in the past in Wichita, but in
almost all schools and gymnasiums, those
who are in training for athletic contests,
play hand-bal at least an hour each day.
For all-around development there can be
no better exercise. 1t is likely that hand
ball viii become more popular now, that
Wichita has an outdoor gymnasium near
the center of the city. In a few days Mr..
Peck intends TO have a backstop 25x25XlS
erected to be used for handban.
Besides the tennis and hand-ball courts
there will be springing- boards jumping
boards. horse shoes and paraphernalia for
other outdoor sports Mr.. Peck expects
10 organize regular classes in outdoor
physical culture
1t is thought that everything will be
prepared in about two weeks and at that
time a formal opening viii be held, and
a band will be secured to furnish music
Tennis and hand-ball matches will be
PLAYED and there viii be regular matches
in all other outdoor exercises. for which

HOW AUGUSTA VIEWS IT.

Augusta. kan. July 4.-The Bell

and II the wichita city council sees IL
10 grant them franchise the people Of
Augusta viii not object. but 70 give them
this franchise because the people Of Au-
gusta desire 10 avoid messenger fees.

She is the Wichita agent for a number

periodicals. as well as books. For instance,
she has 2O9 regular subscribers to the
Forum, and in the city Of Wichita she
has disposed Of $50 sets of the Encyclo-
pedia Britannica. Then as a side line
during the winters Of SO and 1900 she dis

ceeds of which are TO be use in erecting
drinking fountains for man and beast.
Mrs Carter is considered as one of the
institutions Of Wichita, just as the
Daily Eagle is or the Dold Packing plant,
or any one Of the long string of creditable
enterprises which add to the Importance
Of the town. Everyone in the city knows
her, and she is a welcome guest az recep-
lions held by those in the highest grade
of society there.
She has some notions" of her own.
One Of these is a firm belief in the advisa-
bilityof cremation She wants TO live
long enough. and carry out two pet plans:
the building of a Peoples church, with
free baths, free reading rooms and free
rest rooms for women from the country;
and the erection Of creInatory. She has
arranged for the disposition Of her body
by that means.
Mrs. Carter is also an ardent advocate
Of dress reform. and wears a broad, SEN
sible shoe. a dress escaping the ground
and made after the most approved Jen-
ness Miller style. In the summer she
wears white, and in the winter black, and
both winter and summer the same style
