never got the drinker to the point
where he became reckless of his money
and where he began 'tapering his
drinks, wherein lies the profit. In other
words, just as the customer was about
to become profitable to us we sent him
away" And once sent away. profit
able drinker never came back. Anoth-
er cause of failure was that the tavern
sold only pure liquors. "Our profit on
actual material sold has been as low as
80 per cent whereas the average sa-
loonkeeper could not exist unless he
made from 100 to 200 per cent" Final
ly. the tavern reformers closed shop
on Sunday and obeyed the excise law,

taking. Evidence of this sort from

WANTED TO FIND WAY Backbone OF
the first cases which the late Gilman
Marston of New Hampshire, had after
being admitted to the bar was civil
suit involving a somewhat complicated
question Of inheritance, says the Bos-
ton Herald. In no way daunted, young
Marston tackled ii, looked up authori-
ties all the way back to Julius Caesar,
and prepared an argument Of a few
hundred pages which seemed to him
more than unanswerable. His only fear
was that II might be beyond the COM
prehension Of the court
When the time came the young man
rose and plunged in bodily. The judge
seemed interested and Gilman took
heart. But at the end OF an hour and
a half, In the midst Of the most intri-
cate part of his plea, he was pained to
see what he thought was lack Of at
tention on the part Of the court.
1t was just as he expected: the judge
was unable to appreciate the nice
points Of his argument. He paused
hesitated, and then said: Your honor,
/ beg pardon, but do you follow me?''
II have so far" answered the judge,
shifting about in his chair, but I'll
say frankly that II thought l could
find my way back I'd quit right here"

PREACHER WOULDN'T ANswER.-Dr.
Woodrow Wilson of Princeton was
talking with some young men about
cheating In examinations.
Aside from moral ground" DR.. Will
son said, cheating Is bad on material
grounds. The cheat is very apt, you
know, to be found out.
IN Virginia, in my boyhood, there
was a case OF cheating that had dis
astrous ending.
An elderly minister appeared before
a board to be examined for some post
or other. The examination was public
and the first branch to be taken up
was Latin.
What is the Latin for goose?" the
examiner asked.
And the poor old minister at the
start was stumped. He could not re-
member 1t was pitiful to see him, and
a young man seated near could not re-
sist helping him out.
"'Anser' whispered the young man.
But the minister continued silent,
rolling his eyes, racking his brain.
"'Anser,' whispered the young man
in a louder tone.
THE minister now turned his head
and looked at his prompter oddly.
Poor old chap! He almost heard,
He wants me to try again. the young
man thought, and, louder than ever,
he repeated:
''Anser'
AT this the minister turned ana
shook his forefinger at the youth.
Answer yourself, you young jack
anapes.' he shouted"

Sketch Of the Indian Who Is Said to
Have Killed General Custer.

Have Killed General Custer.
Rain in the Face. the Sioux chief
whom history credits with having been
the man who killed Gen. George A.
Custer at the battle of the Little Big
Horn. died last Monday on the Stand
ing Rock reservation near Aberdeen. 5.
d. His death was reported through the
regular official channels. He was 62
years old, and had outlived the mas
sacre by nearly thirty years.
He was a man of great prominence
among the Sioux when the war with
them was waged in 1875. About 1873
he had killed two prospectors who were
travelling through the Sioux country In
Dakota. He took great pleasure In de-
scribing how he had shot one Of them
full of arrows and had pounded In the
head of the other with a heavy war
club Word Of the crime came to Gen.
Custer, who was encamped at the post
near the present big Sioux reservation.
His men captured Rain-in-the- Face,
who at that time was big, handsome
1.-the chap.
Brought before Custer, he would say
nothing. A council of the tribe was
called and an effort to trade two young
men for Rain-in-the-f was made.
He was a big man. being a brother Of
Iron Horse The offer was refused and
the guilty Indian was chained up in
small hut used as a Jail. He was res
cued after about half year by some hay
thieves who came to free his compan-
ion, a white man arrested for stealing
hay. He swore vengeance against Gus
ter and when he Joined Sitting Bull
sent q notice to the Indians on the
reservation that he would get even In
some way.
Mrs. Clusters story of her husbands
last campaign credits Rain-in- the Face
with having been the man who cut out
Tom Clusters heart and some Of the
Indians in the massacreing party said
the same thing. Whether or not he
killed Gen. Custer few ever cared to
ask him.
Since the subJugatlon or the sioux
he had been living in retirement on the
reservation. he took no active part In
the Indian troubles of the early '90s.
AS to how he got his peculiar name
the histories are not clear 1t Is said
by some persons that his face was
pitted with powder marks through the
explosion of a gun. and that it had the
appearance of being covered with little
drops. Another story tells of a fight
in which he stood erect among the fly
ing arrows. and minded them, as he
said in the high flown language Of the
Cooper Indian, mo more than the rain
in his face"
