BISHOP ADJUREs THE SIOUX.

Hare Not Pessimistic of the Future of
the Indian.
"These are my last words to you"
said the venerable Bishop Hare, in
closing a sermon to a vast congrega-
ton of Indians at st. Elizabeth's mis-
sion at Fort Yates. The bishop spoke
to them of the recent decision of the
supreme court regarding liquor. and
reminded them that while there would
be no agency ~suardhouse and no fed
eral officials to mete IL punishment
to them, still there We're other pnn-
ishments both mental and physical,
which resulted from overindulgence in
liquor. The Indians hung upon the
words of their loved bishop and dis
cussed among themselves the duties Of
the citizenship soon to come to them.
Bishop Hare does not take as pessi-
mistic a view of the future of the In
dian as many do. While he believes
the recent decision will he detrimental
to the Indian, especially the weaker
ones. he says the majority of the
Sioux in South Dakota will not be
tempted to drink to excess, but will
continue to progress slowly as they
have in the past.

"What were they?"
"Well, the first indications were a
stiffness about the knee joints that came

after that appeared, my walk got to be
uncertain, shaky-like. Host confidence
in my power to control the movements

cellar, I started to pick up two scuttles
Of coal, and my legs gave way suddenly,
and I tumbled all in a heap in a basket.
I couldn't close my eyes and keep my
balance to save my life. Then I had
fearful pains over my whole body and I
lost control over my kidneys and my
bowels"
"How about your general health?"
"Sometimes I was SO weak that I had

Ibid these pills help you rightaway?"
Il didn't see much improvement un-
til I had used six boxes. The first bene-
fit I noticed was a better circulation and

Mild Ducks in Collision,

wild ducks flying in opposite direc-

them was instantly killed, while the
other was so badly crippled that it
was easily captured.

a wild duck is something terrific. A

Are the Packers Receiving Fair Play?

When the Garfield report on the
business methods of the packers APP
peared, after eight months investiga-
ton, it was severely criticised and
roundly denounced. After three
months of publicity it is significant
that those who attempted to discredit
it have failed to controvert the figures
contained in that exhaustive docu-
ment. The public is beginning to no
tlce this omission, and the feeling is
rapidly growing that the sensational
charges out of which the Beef In
vestigation' arose were without foun-
dation. If the official statements OF
the report are susceptible of contra
dlctlon, a good many people are now
asking why The facts and figures are
not furnished to contradict them.
The truth seems to be that most OF
the charges contain u%nfounded senSa-
tional assertions. A fragrant example
Oh this appeared in a recent article in
an Eastern magazine, to the effect
that forty Iowa banks were forced
to close their doors in 1904 by the
Beef Trusts manipulation of cattle
prices Chief Clerk Cox, of the bank
ing department of the Iowa State Au-
dltor's office, has tabulated the list of
banks given in the magazine article
and has publicly denounced the state
ment as utterly untrue. He gives
separately the reasons for each fail
ure mentioned and officially states
that they have been caused by unwise
speculations and by reckless banking
methods. 1t may be we'll to suspend
judgment upon the packers until the
charges against them are proved.

A Parrot Ranch Proves Profitable

the only one in Mexico.

trial system. His division was between
Victoria and the port Of Tampico, on
the gull coast, through the heart oil

interested in the bright colored birds,
and while running as conductor He
COLLECTED many Of them and taught
them to talk English. There were

his line and he did good side busii-
mess by selling the birds to Ameri-
|cails and others
The thought then occurred to Holts
that he might make more money By
|retiring from railroad work and de-
voting his time to raising parrots. He
followed this PLAN and purchased a
