A LARGE CROWD attended
MADISON Meeting TUES
DAY NIGHT AND.
HEARD A GREAT SPEECH
National Issues Discussed
Clearly, And Speech Was
Highly Instructive.

The Madison meeting at the opera
house on Tuesday evening had . full
houss 10 spite Of the weather being uu-
favorable. Mr.. Madison 10 probably the
only speaker In tho state that could fill
The opera house here on sbad night
The warm personal interest felt for him
by the people here Is force which
would draw crowd when mere poll

District central committee, who 10 in

meeting. The Republican candidates on
the county ticket were called upon the
stage, and after selection by Beeson's
orchestra, Mr.. Sutton 10 short speech
introduced Mr.. Madison, o. matter Of
fern, to hls friends and neighbors. Mr.
Madison stated that hs had appeared
before Q number Of audiences In the
district during the present campaign, bat
that he had not been before an audience
where he felt any thing llte he did be-
fore the people Of bis homo town; whore
10 saw upon the faces Of the audience
the same frsndliness and sympathy. He
said that whatever he had become or
might become must be accredited largely
to the people Of Ford county, 90 that his
feeling was different before an audience
here, from what II would be before an au.
ence 10 any other locality.
Mr.. Madison spoke upon national issues
and poke In a manner SO clear and
plain, that no one could fail to follow his
Ideas throughout the entire speeoh. He
described the great dsvslopement Of the
United States during the last half Of the
century, and showed hew each period Of
this time was confronted BY its great
questions up to the present time when
the transportation problem has become
90 important matter for adjustment.
His explanation OF the great national
highways, and the equal rights which
ever. nan should have TO them was
particularly clear, and his review Of the
laws passed by the RepublIcaa party,
under the leadership Of President Roose.
vsls to bring about this equality, called
atteation to the fast that this great party
is making winning fight for the In.
tsrests Of the American people; that like
II has always met the great questions
thas have come up for settlement, it is
meeting and settling the questions Of
railroad and trust abuses, and that the |
fight, while 1t has gained permanent
ground and already accomplished much |
has only begun and will be continued
until these questions are settled with
absolute fairness to the American peo-
pie.
Mr.. Madison is In high favor with the |
people Of the entire dlstrics and bis
electicn has never been In doubt. 1t is
firmly believed that he will make great
record In congress, but whatever bis
record may be the people know that he
will always be on the side that he be-
ileves 10 right, that hs will stand for the
people and their interests.

get licked for their pains, but if we can just
find the villains that's got the boy, it's all
we want. Well bring 'em to their wits quick
enough
We were compelled to partake of the scouts
animation, almost in spite of ourselves, and
were soon making hurried preparations for
another long trip. We bought some provi-
sions of the sutler, and the colonel and Jerry
each succeeded in buying pony.
At the time stated our war party were on
hand, and fantastic looking set they appear.
ed as they rode down towards us, painted
black, green and vermilion, and rugged out
with feathers and flying steamers Of bright
colored calico.
Most of them were armed with rifles and
revolvers, and all were finely mounted upon
sleek ponies. There were twenty-four of
them, and Jerry had secured pass for both
this party and the others to cross the river on
the ferry, as they were not allowed to cross
upon it without.
They gathered around our prisoner the first
thing, and commenced brandishing their weap-
ons and badgering him in their tongue, Drag
gng at a great rate, according to Jerry, Of
the exploits they were going to perform upon
his relatives, making significant motions Of
tearing off imaginary scalps.
But we were soon ready to start, and our
queer looking cavalcade moved down the river.
The boat was upon our side-a barge large
enough to take half our number on board at
time. Our little party and ten of the In
dams were the first to ride onto the boat, and
all of u.s. excepting the Indians, were COM
PEELED to take hand at the oars.
When nearly across | noticed a man lying
upon the bank in the grass, near the landing.
He was upon his side, with his elbow on the

our late anxiety. 1t was trying time to Jud
and me-that waiting
We looked eagerly among the men about
the barracks, family hoping to discover our
dear old companion among them, but in
vain.
AS we were waiting, one on either side our
captive. crowd of soldiers and of loafers
about the fort gathered around us, asking all
sorts of questions, and many were much in
terested in, our story; but none had seen or
heard anything of Charlie or the thieves, and
boy had gone under" chad his hair lifted"
and the like. l need not tell the reader how
distressing these remarks were to us.
They all agreed, however. that we had done
a smart thing in capturing the Assiniboin,
and the remarks of many Of them as to what
they would do to him if the case were theirs
must have been decidedly alarming to the
prisoner, could he have understood them.
AT length the arrival of Uncle Ben and
Jerry interrupted their talk, and l noticed
at once that the colonel looked gloomy and
sad, and, indeed, he had cause for it. They
had gained no information whatever. The
officers were of the opinion that the thieves
had not come this far, and as to Charlie, they
considered his case as hopeless, for when a
mans horse was found dead in that region
under such circumstances there was very little
hope OF his ever being found alive. No such
case had ever occurred within their knowl-
edge. AS. to sending out soldiers, it would
do more harm than good, even if the boy
were a captive, as the Assiniboins were ever
on the watch, and would evade them with
ease in that rough country, and their rea-
soning in the latter respect was undoubtedly
good.
Even Jerry admitted this, but he declared
Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1900-1911, 1906-02-11

that the boy had either gotten entirely away
from them, or had been taken alive. OF course,
he could not say that he was alive at this
moment, but he believed it, and he would
stick by us until he was found. He would set
the whole tribes of the Mandans and Aricka-
rees after them.
"Just go down below here little ways"
said he, and camp for dinner, and I'll be
with you in an hour. Keep a sharp eye on
that varmint," he added, as he struck out in
the direction of the Indian tepees, which were
just above the fort.
We did as directed, and while riding down
to the river we met couple of Sioux They
stopped as they caught sight of the Aassini-
BON, and, utterlng grunt of astonishment,
stood pointing at him, gesticulating and talk
ing in their cultural language as we passed.
But the little warrior looked neither to the
right nor the left, nor appeared as though he
saw them.
1t was a sad, almost hopeless time that
waiting for Jerry, for all three of us had
nearly despaired of ever seeing Charlie again,
despite the energy of our scout.
1t was nearly two hours before the latter
appeared.
@Keep up your grit, boys!" he said, as he
reached us, "and don't get down in the mouth,
for I've just naturally set the Mandans and
'Rickarees biting, told them some whoppers,
and they're Just red hot for fight. They're

RHEUMATISM STAYS CURED
MRS. Gotta, Confined to Bed and in
Constant Pain, Cured by Or.
Williams Fink Pills.

Rheumatism can be inherited and that
fact proves it to be disease of the blood.
IL is necessary, therefore, to treat it
through the blood if q permanent cure
is expected. External applications may
give temporary relief from pain but as
long as the poisonous acid is in the blood
the pain will return, perhaps in n new
place, but it will surely return. DIR Will
liams' Pink Pills cure rheumatism be-
cause they go directly to the seat of the
disorder, purifying and enriching the
blood.

The ostrich business in the United

This is Il new line of animal industry

such fancy birds as have some of the

Africa but the size seems to be increas-

thar could be desired.
So far serious ostrich diseases have
not troubled the American raiser; even
the So-called barring of the feathers hns
not been observed. UStriches need n

south is far less desirable although this
is sometimes mentioned as suitable for
ostrich raising

COMMUNION WINE.
An Association That Insists 1t Shall Be
Unfermented.

Glasgow Scotland. has mn organization
known ms the Glasgow Unfermeuted
Wine Communion Service association
Before this organization DR. Neil Car
michael has just delivered an address
upon changed Opinions as 10 the Value
of Alcoholic Drinks" He began by
showing thar there was no such thing as
natural alcohol-alcohol was produced
by fermentation or dstilIation. Fermen-
tation was known from the earliest
times, but the process of distillation was
discovered only about 100, and what
ever wine was used at tie institution of
the Lords Supper it could not have been
stronger than the weakest claret He
maintained. however. that if wine of any
kind was used it must have been infer
mented wine. There was no text which
said the wine was used. There were sew
enteen words in the Bible and New Tcs-
lament which the translators slumped to-
gether as meaning wine. whereas many
of them referred to the fr,iit of the vine
and other fruits. He then pointed out
that the idea had been given up that
alcohol was necessary as a stimulant to
people in health. and cvurended that It's
use even in moderation was only niu-
rious. In conclusion. he showed that the
use of alcohol in disease was being
largely given up by medical men, and
maintained that where it was beneficial
there was no case in which some other
agent would not do as much good.
