ARE READY FOR The
ANNUAL C0NvOCATI0N
Episcopal indians Gathering at
White Swan for the
Great Meeting.
1T WILL BEGIN TOMORROW
This Viii Probably Be the last Time
Bishop Hare Will Attend such
a Meeting-Other Prominent
Leaders to Be Present.

Chamberlain, S. D., Sept. 9.-During
the past week or ten days Indians from
Minnesota, North and South Dakota
and from Nebraska have been gather
ing at White Swan, situated on the
Missouri river near old Fort Randall,
in the southern part of South Dakota,
to attend the annual conVOcation OF the
Episcopal church.
The gathering will be one of the
most interesting as we'll as one Of the
snOst important ever held in the state
or northwest. Several thousand Sioux
ana other Indians from the states men,
toned will be present. All the big res
erVations will be represented by large
delegations.
Unusual interest attaches to the gath
ering, which will convene on September
s, for the reason that it will be the
last gathering of the kind to be attend
ed by Rt. Rev. w. H. Hare, Of this
city. the venerable Episcopal bishop of
South Dakota, prior to his retirement
from active labor in behalf Of his
church. The final parting between
Bishop Hare and the Indians is certain
to be an affecting one.
This gathering will mark the close of
thirty-four years of active work by
Bishop Hare in this field. These thir-
ty-four years of active work in the or
ganization Of new Episcopal societies
throughout this territory have wit
messed really wonderful changes. A
struggling white population which the
bishop, in an address delivered at New
ark in the early days of his work in
this field, characterized as .Subsisting
on the sale of fire-w-ar to the red
man. has doomed :lto a prosperous,
cultured state, whose civilizing inhu-
ences nave worked beneficially to both
the Indian and the white of that early
period.
In view of the fact that this will be
the last gathering Of the kind to be
attended by Bishop Hare, missionary
leaders of the church from New York,
Philadelphia and other eastern cities
viii be present to participate in the de-
liberations Of the convocation.
The delegations of Indians are COM
ing from all the Sioux agencies, each
mission, church n guild being en-
titled to three delegates. which alone
will swell the number of delegates to
more than 5000. In addition there will
be many hundreds of other Indians who
are interested in the work of the church
and who will be present.
The little indian chapel of st. Philip,
at White Swan, which is presided over
by Rev. B. f. Lambert, has been placed
IN readiness for the gathering and a
substantial fund has been subscribed
for the proper entertainment of the
thousands of Indians and others who
will attend the convocation.
one of the features of the gathering
Will be the contributions to be made bv
the Indians for home as well as for for
elSn missionary work. The Indian
members of the church are devout
Christians and liberal contributors.
They have prepared themselves with
funds and the aggregate sum contrib
uted by them for the purposes stated
WI! reach into the thousands of dollars.

ABUNDANCE or HOP VINES.
Banks of Streams Are loaded viii

Banks of Streams Are Loaded witt.
Them.
Pierre, S. D., Sept. 12.-The wild hop
vines along the streams in the central and
western part of the state are this year
bearing prolifically, and to those who have
investigated these vines it is believed that
the state has in them a source of wealth
and profit to the men who will devote their
attention to their raising. The fact that
they grow wild and bear %abundantly with
out any care whatever is an indication
that the country is suited to their culture.
Every stream in this section Of the state
shows a growth Of hops, raany OF the
smaller streams being lined with them.
So much interest is being taken in the
matter that the quality of the hops will
likely be tested, and if they prove all right
the culture will be looked into.
Vines growing wild have lately been
picked IN the vicinity of this city. which
are as well loaded with hops as any Gull
tivated vine would be. The wild hops are
smaller than the cultivated varieties, but
the probabilities are that they could be
improved in this by proper care and at
tention.

Madison, S. D., Sept. 1.-THE local

name as Frank Smith, who is wanted
IN Clark county on the charge of at
tempted murder.
The attempted murder was commit
ted at what is known as the old Perry
Robinson farm, situated in Woodland
township. There are several buildings
on the place, which is deserted. The

the spot for an attempt at murder.
smith n a companion named John
Wick, both of whom were travelling
overland through the country, camped
there the night preceding the attempted
murder. Wick owned n team, which
was driven by them, While Smith had a
bicycle. Wick states that he first met
smith only about two weeks ago.
Vick's home is at Trip. He first
met Smith at Mitchell. Smith claimed
ms nome was at Yankton. Soon after
they had started out after camping
over night at the old Robinson place in
Clark county, Wick announced his in
tentlon Of proceeding to the town of
Clark.
Without a word Smith drew a revolt
Yer ana commenced shooting at the
driver of the team. One Of
the bullets took effect in Vick's right
and the other in his left side,
a rib just below the heart
and glancing somewhat. BY a miracle
Wick escaped with his life.
He abandoned his team and sue
ceeded in making his escape from his
a~ssa1lant. Wick fortunately was not
wounded. His theory is
that Smith planned to kill him and
hide his body III the bushes surrounding
the old Robinson place, or in one of the
old wells in that vicinity, thus cover
up all traces of his crime, the Sc

the chief aim of the organization Will
be to secure more adequate compen

rural mail carriers claim that they are
not paid anything like what they

in most instances carriers in cities re-
ceive better pay than the rural carrier

Game and False Arrest.

Charged He Made Illegal Seizure Of
Game and False Arrest.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Sept. S.-A suit for
damages on the charge of false arrest
and another suit on the charge of IL
legal seizure of game will in all prob
ability result from the recent arrest
by Game Warden Linnet, of Brown
county, of Ralph w. Parliman, a we'll
known Sioux Falls attorney.
Mr.. Parliman has returned to his
nome in this city, and is preparing to
institute the suits mentioned. He is
highly indignant over his arrest, as he
shipped ten prairie chickens and two
ducks strictly in accordance with the
terms of u decision rendered by Judge
Jones, Of the state circuit court in this
city.
The birds which caused the trouble
were shipped from Frederick, Brown
county, that being the nearest railroad
point to where Mr.. Parliman was en-
gagged in shooting. At Aberdeen Game
Warden Linnet seized the birds and
procured a warrant for the arrest of the
alleged offender. The game warden
went to Mcpherson county-beyond his
jurisdictiOn-and arrested Mr.. Parli-
man.
Mr.. Parliman asked to be permitted
to finish his hunting trip, offering to
furnish m sort of security desired for
his appearance. but the game warden
would not consent, so Mr.. Parlinlan
accompanied him to Aberdeen, notwith-
standing that he detected the flaw in
the warrant and that the game warden
could not legally serve it in Mcpherson
county.
Upon being old of the circumstances
Judges Campbell ana Crofoot, of Aber-
deem, volunteered their services in the
defense of MI. Parliman.

SHOCK INDIAN SOCIETY,".
Dead Horse" Wears Too Flash
Clothes on Reservation

Clothes on Reservation.
Pine Ridge Agency, s.. D., Sept. BE
cause Dead Horse, lately returned from a
trip to Europe, made his temperance in
Sioux Indian society in a pair of check
cred trousers, bought in Paris, he was
threatened with expulsion by the tribe.
Dead Horse and his family We're with
Buffalo Bits show in Europe, and during
his tour of the continent took great pride
in display of his feathers and beads and
painted legs. But on returning to this
country and just before he took the train
from Omaha for his reservation in South
Dakota he donned his Paris clothes. In
place Of mis- beaded chaps were a pair of
trousers with checks so large they fairly
Cracked. His moccasins were discarded
and in place appeared highly figured
brown hose and bright yellow Oxfords.
His blue army shirt resigned in favor of
a lavender and pink silk affair. But he
his blanket and the green and
scarlet ribbons that bound up his hair.
He wanted to spring his new clothes upon
his fellow tribesmen as a surprise.
The first the tribe knew of the return
of Dead Horse to his tepee was when he
burst in upon a circle Of Indians in the
feryor of a native dance. Now, it is the
height of rudeness, in Indian etiquette, to
attend these dances with any more clothes
than the laws of the white man absolutely
The attire consist largely of eagle
tails and ochre and green paint, in alter
mating splashes.
The Indignation of his tribesmen can be
understood then, when he suddenly leaped
into the circle, checked trousers, pink
shirt, yellow shoes and all, and began
dancing to the incarnation. The effect was
electrical. 1t promptly broke up the fes-
Thu offended Indians gazed in
at the returned traveller, and then
retired into a council, to which all the
chiefs of the tribe were called.
II was decided Dead Horse should be
notified that if he should appear in these
strange garments he would be excluded
rom all future meetings and dances.
