Indian is Missing.

Leo. Degarr, full-fedged Indian
from the Fort Totten reservation, who
came to Devils Lake to attend the
circus, is missing. He was in the
company of four other red men, and
on Tuesday evening was drunk. They
left for the reservation, but Degarr
who is about rs, has not yet been
located, and traces of blood from the
Pelican Point bridge, over which the
party drove, leads to the belief that he
was murdered and his body thrown
into Devils Lake at some point near
the bridge. Sheriff Rutten and depu.
ties are searching and warrants have
been issued for the arrest of John and
Jim DeMars and Charles White, com.
panions Of the missing Indian.

II was taught this in one vivid ex-

A NEW PRINCIPLE m MEDICAL

s.,s:, SCIENCE.
For years It has been the practices Of med.
ical men to treat patients suffering from piles

ments give but temporary relief, but have
never affected . positive cure. 2.
After months Of research and study, &C.
companied BY actual experience with various
patients, d.. c. A. Perrin arrived at . posi-.
tive conclusion as to the exact action Of the
various parts Of the. bowel system, under
different conditions. and when subjected to
various prescriptions. r. 7.
He finally prepared that wonderful inter.
nal remedy known - DR.. PERRIN's PII1
SPECIFIC, which Is put up in bottles, retail

connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans with
canal born of the BRAN OF man, and in I'M
dertaking the completion of the Panama work the
United States is only the executive agent of the SIX
teenth Century's of genius.
When Balboa discovered the Pacific, and saw that
the new world not part OF Asia the idea of an
lsthmlan canal began TO terminate Spanish brains
Columbus and his followers had out to find
westerly way to India, and Baboas discovery of
another ocean made them regard the continent
as obstacle in their path. They hoped to find
way for ships through the sthmus and in 5I4 ID Ava
and Juan de Soils directed by the Spanish King
TO search for such a strait and make chart of the
coast.
Cortez sent out expeditions in the hope of finding
passage to the Pacific and the result of his eXpora
tons was an accurate map of the Gulf of Mexico,
which he sent home in 524 All the maritime proves
OF Europe were eager to find a direct route to India
and China They searched almost the entire Atlantic
Coast line of the New World, and only with great
reluctance accepted the fact of unbroken CONT
mental barrier extending from Arctic ice to Antarctic
regions of perpetual storm
By the middle of the sixteenth century it was known
definitely that no inter-oceanic strait existed. 1t
was a Spaniard who first put into definite form the
idea that had been growing in the minds of adven-
turOus mariners. There is passage through
America, SAID Gomara in 55I. Let us make one"
Then was born the project which the twentieth
fury looks upon a stupendous undertaking
In his letter to the King, Gomara SAID: 1T is true

also hands Let but the resolve be made there Will
will be made, Will supply them. To King of Spain,
with the wealth of the Indies at his command, when
the object be attained the spice trade what is
possible IS easy
Gomara dreamer of great things He
had for his belief the practcabllity of his
canal project having roughly surveyed three routes;
and it is interesting know that modern engineers
have followed the lines that he recommended.
While Gomaras definite proposal appears TO have
been the first official formulation of a canal project
there indications the writings of the time that
1t in the thoughts of the people of Spain from
the time of Balboa, and the talk of wavside inns
When 4 traveller returned from the New World rested
at inn he questioned about the progress of the
search for a waterway between the oceans and the
glorious results that would follow If the oceans
to be Joined" enthusiastically discussed
Only the Government indifferent To the great
enterprise The fires of Spanish ambition soon burned
themselves out, were eXtingIiShed 10y bigotry and
GOmara's splendid dream was forgotten
For than two centuries the project of an
ner-oceanic canal TO have been lost sight of
by all the nations 1t revived in 1880 when
England sent Captain (aftcrward Lord Nelson with
two thousand men TO take possession of Nicaragua.
In his dispatches, Nelson disclosed the purpose OF
the conquest. He SAID In order 10 give facility

GREAT PITCHING FEAT
cy Young Did Not Allow Man to Reach
First Base.

Boston. May 5.-Cy Young equaled
the worlds record yesterday afternoon
when he shut out the Athletics at the
American League grounds without all
lowing one Of the visitors to reach first
base. This feat is a rare treat and
only twice before has Il been performed
by any of the big teams. Before yes
terday there were only two other i'm
stances of a team being blanked with
out man reaching the initial bag
John Nj. Ward performed the feat once
in Buffalo IN 1850, and Pitcher Rich
mond did the trick once against Cleve-
land the same year when he was with
Worcester Cy deserves more credit
for the feat than those who have per-
formed Ia the past as the game is
much faster today than &c was I'm the
time Of Ward and Richmond and it's
wonderful feat especially when SO is
played on the strong Athletic crowd Of
batsmen. There have been many in
stances where teams have been shut
out without hits. but no pitcher has
succeeded in preventing "a team getting
