Editors Of Mo. Valley Times:
We arrived here on the 18th,
inst, and will try to tell you all
| know about Canada.
Afer parting with friends in
Missouri Valley, We rived at
Eagle Grove, Iowa. chat
night at | p. M, and ST ed
over night with relatives, and
left next morning, with a sad
farewell, and started for our
distant home in Canada.
We met papa at Sioux City
on Saturday evening, July 18th
and took the 0. & st. r., for st.
Paul, reaching there the next
morning at 5 o'clock. Spent the
day in sight seeing at the twin
cities. We enjoyed the day
very much, although quite tired
We left st. Paul at 5 p. M, and
while standing on the platform
just before the train pulled out,
thinking when we would return
to our native land, the
band suddenly struck up:
"My country tits of thee"
Just as we were leaving the
city the strains of "The Star
Spangled Banner" was played
by the band. We could scarcely
keep back the tears as the
music died away.
We arrived in Emerson, on the
Canada line, where all baggage
is inspected. We got out of
Emerson next morning at 5 o.
clock, and arrived in Winnipeg
at o'clock, which is called 13
o'clock here, a city of about ten
thousand.
Some things are much higher
here, while our own American
goods we can buy for less mon
ey than in the States. Cotton
lis very high, while silk we can
buy for about half price. The
duty is 80 cents on the dollar.
If you wish to send a present to
the States you must pay 30 per
cent tariff. We saw a beautiful
American made soda fountain
that cost $4,000 and the duty
on it was $4,000. We had the
pleasure of having an ice cream
soda from this fountain.
We left Tuesday noon. All
went right until we arrived at
Daulphin where the train made
a stop of 20 minutes for lunch.
Papa was going to get off and
get some, but it had been rain
ing and the platform was muddy
and as papa started to get off he
Slipped and fell between the
platform and train. He reach
ed for the platform to save him
self, while the people who were
near by held him down while
twocars passed by. One heel
was pulled off of his shoe, his hat
was mashed, and clothing badly
torn, but he only had a few
scratches and bruises. This is
the same place he was hurt last
winter when he came home with
two ribs broken.
We arrived here at North
Battleford, our new home, a
town of l, 400 citizens, just one
year old, everything is new,
very few buildings are painted,
no sidewalks, but everybody
seems to be full of business.
Three banks here, so you see
we have money. There are
a streets: "Green, Vedora, Main
King Edward"
We are going to commence
our new house in the morning
1t will be located on a high place
where we can see the beautiful
scenery for miles around. The
North Saskatchewan, is just a
mile from here, and we can see
it very plainly from our home.
Our car came yesterday.
This is surely a healthy nlace

Mrs. Mary j. Rhodabeck in
forms US this morning that the
government has allowed her a
pension of SIS per month. Mrs.
Rhodabeck deserves this recog-
milton by the government.
She has for years, without the
aid of her husband, now de-
ceased, supported her children
and raised them up to be useful
members of society, while
her husband drew the pension.
But now her claim has been
recognized, and small as it is,
will assist her to support her
self and family. We congratu-
late Mrs. Rhodabeck on her
final success in securing her
pension.

of a new mammoth cave, which prom
ises to rival the celebrated Wind cave,
near Hot Springs, S. d. The new cave

doubt it will equal if not surpass the
famous Wind cave. which now belongs
to the government. congress having au-
thorized its purchase.
The newest wonder is in that part
of the Black Hills which extends
through Pennington county in western
South Dakota. The surroundings are
of the most romantic character.
Thus far about a dozen rooms"
have been explored. AS the eXplora-
ton trips are extended new wonders
are revealed. Unlike Wind cave at
Hot Springs, one goes traight into the
new cave instead of down a ladder.
The entrance is dark and winding, but
dry. although there are evidences that
at some time in the past an abundance
of water had found its way in and out
of the cavern
One of the largest rooms in the cave
is filled with wonderful water forma-

fantastic design. The room might ap-
propriately be called the ZOO" for In

-Four Attorneys In Indian Territory
Received Big Sum Of Money
FOR SERVICES THEY RENDERED INDIANS
BELVA LOCKWOOD is ONE OF
LUCKY sARRIsTERs WHO
GET THE CASH.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 81
Some of the biggest legal fees ever
paid in this country have arisen from
Indian claims against the government,
and one has just been allowed under
the provisions of an act Of congress,
involving the payment to half dozen
lawyers of s74O,555.42. A former can
didate for the presidency, two ex-sen-
ators of the United States, and a full
blooded Cherokee are among those
who will divide this fee
A few years ago a firm of lawyers
in Muskogee, I. T., came to Washing
ton with a claim for $75O,OOO, which
it demanded as a compensation for
services performed for tribesmen in
the Indian territory Every effort was
made by the secretary of the interior
to hold up this claim, but he failed
and the Muskogee firm got the money.
The fee just granted was based on
work done by them against the gov
eminent since 1885.
Belva Lockwood is the former can
didate for the presidency who was in
terested in the Cherokee claim. She
ran for the first office in the gift of
the people in 1884 and again in 1888
on the ticket of the equal rights party.
Mrs. Lockwood has been a practicing
lawyer in Washington for many years.
Her share of the fee in question was
$4,000.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucuous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
f1ammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucuous surfaces.
We win give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

CIRCUS DAY.
The Great Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers Shows Coming Soon.

The circus is one of the big things
OF America that has made the travel
ing observer pause and think The
marvellous system which achieves the
building of well-ordered village with
population of 1900 in the hours of
early dawn each day, and packs up
for the next breakfast, has attracted
the serious study of military chiefs
and other leaders of great bodies of
men and huge business institutions. 1t
is this marvellous management that
draws multitudes of people to the
train yards to witness the unloading
of the great Adam FOrepaugh and Sells
Brothers enOrOmus shows. The great
caravans are unloaded with dispatch.
and the circus man and animal upon
whom devolves the burdens incident
to placing the tremendous equipment
upon the show lots glide gently and
efficiently into the place allotted for
individual duty. 1t takes four special
trains to carry the Forepaugh and
Sells colony from town to town Every
thing must be spick and ready for the
daily parade, starting from the circus
grounds at 10 o'clock. The several
hundred horses that take part in this
big spectacle are freshly groomed
every morning, and the thousand or
more men, women and children are
alert and cOntented looking on the gor-
geous pageant This street display of
the great Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers shows rises above all other
efforts of the kind for fascinating de-
tail, magnificent display and extraor-
binary length Most circus parades
are firing affairs, because of the I'M
kempt expression of people and
things. The horses are apt to be slow
moving and worn, and the people, as a
rule, strongly suggest the idea of
strenuous times. At last. thanks to
the able management of Forepaugh-
Sells Brothers shows. this is changed

cessfon winds its way over the bust
