congratulation said:
You remind me of Fort Dodge

once had a grave dug for a patient
supposed to be dying. who after.
ward recovered. and over this error
of judgment the doctor was joked
for many years.
Zone day he attended, in consul
tation with three conferes. another
patient. This patient really died.
After the death, as the physicians
discussed the case together, one of
them said:
Since quick burial is necessary,

vacant grave on hand.

VINDICATI0N
Sure to he Meete1 Out TO Drey-
fus Former French Army
Official.

Paris, July lS.-Twelve years of
horror is to be followed at last by
the full vindcatiou of Capt. Alfred
Dreyfus. That is the confident be-
lief of his friends. They are assured
that the decision of the Court of APP
peals, which has just heard the final
plea in his case, will restore him to
his former rank and honors in the
army.
For a time it was thought that a
court-martial would go through the
form of acquitting him, but even
proceeding may be dispensed with.
Public interest in the case increas-
es as the end approaches. During
the secret settings of the court the
corridors of the Palace of Justice
have been crowded with persons,
more or less directly concerned. and
the probabilities of the quashng Of
the prosecution of further court
martial have been animatedly dis
cussed.
The Dreyfus family are eagerly
awaiting the result. Matthew Drey-
fus, the brother of the accused Off
GER, accompanied the latter's advo-
Gates. and was present in the pre-
cincts of the court daily.
There is a widespread report that
former Capt. Dreyfus is very much
excited, and undergoing nervous tor
lures owing to the long drawn out
proceedings.

AttsikS a Whole Family Of
People at Pitts

Prssburg, July II. W. N.
Grimes, his wife and eleven-mOnth-
old baby went through a frightfRl
experience at late hour last night
when they were bitten about the
face and hands by a huge rat
Grimes was bitten in the nose several
times, his wife was bitten on the

pool of blood and a huge rat just
jumging off the bed. She awakened
her husband, who was so very weak
from such an enormous loss of blood
that he cauld hardly stand.
He was sent to the hospital TO
bsye nus wounds dressed. and return
ed home about II o'clock, when all

They had not been asleep for an
hour when both husband and wife
were awaken by the cries of the
baby They lit the light and both
were astonished to find that both the
wife and baby had been bitten By
Lhesame animal, which had returned.
The wife and child were sent to

Mighty Lazy.

According to a well-known rail-
road man, interested in construction
in the West, the Indian. though
himself not overly fond of work
evinces the greatest contempt for
the indolent white man. To sit by
and watch the latter toll is to the red
man source of failing pleas
ure.
A number of Blackfeet in Mon
tana were, according to this railroad
man, one day squatting on the
ground watching a group of labor
ers wis were constructing a grade
for a branch line in that State. In
their laconic fashion they were COM
menting upon the workmen and
their work, when a surveyor riding
a bicycle, the first the Indians had
ever seen, came along. He had left
the train at the last station and was
going to the fort, a little further on.
The Blackfeet watched the wheel
man without word until he had
passed beyond a hill. Then they
expressed their sentiments with re-
gard to him.
