Lescne o. the White Sky Cali.

The Klowa Indians have a queer
story Of the white sky calf" Accord
ing to the legend, that portion Of the
American desert was formerly very
fertile. supporting large herds Of pure
white %buffaloes, each having a black
tall. These creatures were held sacred
BY the savages and never killed for
any purpose. Finally an old medicine
man. Ne-ka-ta-mah, vowed that he
would have a tepee built from the sa-
cred white skins. The chiefs Of the
tribe tried hard to dissuade him from
the notion, but all to no purpose. He
declared that he would commence to
collect the skins on the morrow. Dur
ing the night a great white light ap-
peared in the sky and in its center a
white buffalo calf. The calf slowly de-
scended to the earth. took charge Of
ths herds, leading them northward, and
from that day to this the Kiowas have
Devof seen q white buffalo.

Artillery, armed as infantry, we're
supposed to be, and evidently were
Judging from a recent interview
given out by General Funston), to the
left OF Hale's brigade.
The South Dakota regiment was in
the front on the firing line. They
were halted by General Macarthur
about a mile south of the Marilao
River railroad bridge where they lay
in the hot sun for several hours,
impat1enly waiting orders to advance.
II General Otis brigade was at
that time in its regular place to the
left (west) Of General Hale's brigade,
1t is possible, as recently suggested
by General Funston. that part Of the
Kansas regiment may have crossed
the Marilao River early in the fore
noon, carried some minor intrench-
ments on the opposite bank, and then
have been recalled for, by reason OF the
Marilao Rivers inclining mile to
the southwark on the west side of
the railroad track, the Kansas regi-
ment would have struck the river
over a mile south Of where the South
Dakota boys did, and about directly
west OF where they were halted tor
so long. 1t is impossible for any one
man to see a whole battle field in
Diet all during an engagement, es-
pecially in the region Of Marilao
where it is somewhat rolling, inter-
spersed with swamps and dotted here
and there with patches of dense
timber and underbrush.
|: Suffice it to say, General Funston
is no doubt honestly ignorant Of the
fact that the big Marilao fight took
place about a hali-mile east of the
railroad and fully a quarter of a mile
north Of the place where the railroad
crosses the river. 1t was on the
northern bank Of the river that the
PHILIPPINES had constructed their
double low Of intrenchmen ts. 1t was
in these intrenchment3 that Agui-
na]do's cred Jackets''-iour regi-
ments Of Filipino infantry previous
ly trained in the Spanish army
were stationed.
1t was here that the real battle
took place. The South Dakota
troops, commanded by Colonel Frost,
were the only one who participated
In 1t to any extent. The firing line
consisting OF that regiments second
battalion, commanded BY Major
Howard, Of Aberdeen, S. D., was
the first to become involved.

There is a pathetic side to the
death of John Alexander Dowie,
the prophet of Zion City. Rising to
great heights OF power, entirely by
his own efforts, and being able to
attract thousands Of people and i'm
mense sums OF money from people
all over the country has created for
the man a great reputation as an
organizer. While Dowie was able
to convince thousands that his plan
of religion was the right one, the
general public did not ..take much
stock in his protestations of religious
power. The time came when he
over-reached himself and for the
past three years his path has not
been strewn with roses by any
means. From his own followers he
was deposed from his high position
and the walls of Zion City came near
crumbling in thessdust. The future
Of Zion City and the religion of those
people who still remain there is an
open question which the men at the
head Of it will have to solve.
Dowie's death simpli6es matters to
. great extent.

The Thsw trial in New York is
costing both sides OF the case an
immense amount of money. and ii
is given out from New York that it
will cost both sides at least 81, 25o. ooG
before the affair is concluded. 1t
will cost the Thaw family at least a
halt million dollars for counsel alone
and aside from this will be the ex-
pense OF employing expert alienists
to give testimony on Thaw's insani-
ty. The state OF New York will be put
to an immense expense in providing
for the judge, assistant attorneys,
expert alienists. After Evelyn Thaw
told her story on the witness stand
and depicted the character of Stan
ford White in such vivid colors,
there was but little, il any. chance
left to convict Harry Thaw. Mr..
Jerome might as we'll have COM
menced to cut down his bill OF ex-
pense at that time.

0. W. couRsEY ON FROST
Former Mitchell Man Contributes an
Article on the Frost-Fuuston
Controversy.

In the Sunday issue Of the Chicago
Record-He1ald an entire page is de-
voted to the controversy that has
been started over the act OF Col.
Frost, of the South Dakota regiment
and Col. Funston Of the Kansas regi-
ment as to which is entitled to the
glory and renown at the battle CT
Marilao river during the var with
Spain. The Record Herald publishes
the statement taken from the war
department concerning the battle
and these facts do not disclose that
Col. Funston made any particular
attempt to usurp honors that did
not belong to him. Several letters are
contributed by South Dakota SOL
diers, among which was one written
by o. W. Coursey, formerly living
in Mitchell, but now making his
home in Chicago. MI. Coursey was a
member of the South Dakota regi-
ment, and his article, which follows,
is quite interesting:
In regard to the controversy rela-
tive to which regiment OF volunteer
infantry and its respective comman.
der belongs the real glory Of the fight
that took place at the Marilao River
in the Philippine Islands March q,
1899, and which is now receiving
such a general airing all over the
country, / beg to assert that having
teen in the fight myself and hav-
ing very carefully scrutinized the
topography OF the country, and hav-
ing made copious notes Of the battle
in my diary just after it was over,
believe myself competent to send 4
few rays Of light upon the subject
that will tend to clear the present
disturbed atmosphere Of its vague
ness and dispel many preconceived
notions, without doing violence 10
the good name of either General
Funston or Colonel Frost.
In this battle General Funston
(then a colonel) commanded the
Twentieth Kansas Regiment, while
Colonel Frost commanded the First
South Dakota infantry.
The matter can only be treated
intelligently by reviewing the thea
TIRE of operations and the relative
formation OF the troops engaged In
the fight. The railroad, from but
three miles south of where it crosses
the Marilao River to as many miles
north OF it, inclines about twenty
degrees to the east(lookinR northward)
Of due north. The Marilao River,
about a haif-mile west Of where the
railroad crosses it, turns quite
abruptly to the south and runs very
nearly parallel with the..railroad for
over a mile.
The troops engaged in this battle
were Hale's brigade of General Mac
Arthur's division. This brigade
consisted of the Nebraska, South
Dakota and Pennsylvania regiments.

the Montana and Kansas regiments
