without saving that whenever Sage found op-
portunty to play joke upon Harris, Harms was
sure to suffer.
Along about 1873 Sage fell victim to illness
which reduced him skeleton and defed all the
efforts of the physicians to 1t. He went to the
AdirOndaCks, and took Harris with HIM sage had
always been an active man, and he COuldnt idle
any day wholly away IN 1nanlt1on, but walked
every day to the limit of his strength One day,
toward nightfall, the pair came upon humble log
cabin which bore these words painted upon a single:
" Entertainment fox Man and Beast.
They were obliged to stop there for the night,
Sage's strength being exhausted. They entered the
cabin and found its and sole occupant there.
a rugged and sturdy and simple hearted man OF
middle age. He cooked supper and placed 1t before
the travellers salt Junk boiled beans corn bread
and black coffee. Sages stomach could abide
nothing but the most delicate food; therefore this
banquet revo1ted him, and he sat at the table un-
emplOved, while Harris fed ravenOusy, hmitlessly,
gratefully; for he had been chaplain IN lighting
regiment all through the war, and had kept IN per
lection the grand and uncrtca appetite and splendid
physical vgor which those four yearsOt tough fare and
activity had furnished him. Sage went supperless
to bed, and tossed and writhed all night upon
shuck mattress that full of attentive and inter
ested corncobs. In the morning Harris was raw
enous again, and devOured the OdiOuS breakfast as
contented1y and as delightedy as he had devoured
its twin the night before
Sage sat upon the porch, empty, and contem-
plated the performance and meditated revenge.
Presently he beckoned the landlord and took him
aside and had a confidential talk with him He said:
L am the paymaster What is the bill:
- Two SupperS, nifty cents, TWO DeCS- JnIJE cents,
two breakfasts, fifty cents; total, dollar and
thirty cents.
Sage said, 60 back and make out the bill and
fetch it to me here the porch. Make it thirteen
dollars"
Thirteen dollars, Why, it's impossible, l

it is
My man. I've got something to say about this
as we'll you. It's thirteen dollars. You'll make

DEAN SAGE was a delightful man, yet in
l. way terror to his friends; for he loved them so
we'll that he could not refrain from playing prac-
teal Jokes on them. We have to be pretty deeply
in love with a person before We can do h1m the
honor of Joking farniliarly with him. Dean Sage
was the best citizen | have known IN America. 1t
takes courage be good citizen, and he had
plenty of it. He allowed individual and no cor
ioration to infringe his smallest right and escape
lnpunished He very rich and very generous,
and benevolent and he gave away his money with
a prodigal hand but if individual or corpora
ton frnged right OF his to the value of ten cents
he would spend thousands of dollars worth OF time
and labor and money and persistence on the mat
ter and would lower his flag until he had won
his battle or lost it.
He and Rev. Mr. Harris had been classmates IN
college and to the day of Sages death they were
fond of each other as engaged pair. 1t follows,

ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs

known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
la~xatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and

ORDER FOR REMOVAL
OF INDIAN REMAINS

Pierre, =. D.. Oct. 10.-Some time ago
the war department at Washington is
sued an order that the bodies OF many
amous Indians, which a V been In
the cemetery at the Standing Rock
agency for years, should be moved to
either Keokuk, Ia, or TO Bismarck, n.
ID. The Indian relatives became great
ly excited over the possible removal
OF the great departed chiefs, and APP
pealed TO Miss Mary C. Collins, OF
Little Eagle. who is held in great es-
TEEN by the Indians on account of hey
many years service as a missionary
among them. Miss Collins in turn APP
pealed to Doane Robinson, whose His
tory of the Sioux" is acknowledged az
the only standard work dealing with
the Sioux nation. Mr.. Robinson set to
work Immediately, and was today in
formed that his efforts on behalf of the
Indians were successful. that the bod
les of the deceased would not be dis
turbed If the relatives so wished, or
that if they so desired the relatives
might nave the bodies of the departed
ones taken 70 any part OF the Standing
Rock reservation at the expense Of the
government. Among the many famous
Indians inferred at Fort Yates are Sit
ting Bull, who in his time was the
greatest schemer the Sioux ever had
among them: Rain-in-the-Face. a
great warrior, and Chief Gall. the aris-
tocratic chief, whose integrity has

BOWEN PETITIONS FOR
CHANGE OF VENUE

Pierre, s. D., oct. 10.-A petition is
being circulated in Stanley county ask
ing that the secon trial of Aurelius
Bowen, on the charge Of killing Kath-
arine Kille, in her claim shanty last
winter, be held in some other county,
on the claim that Bowen cannot get
justice in Stanley. There was a strong
feeling against Bowen at the time Of
the murder, and while nothing but cir
cumstances ever connected him with
the crime, the jury at the first hearing
was discharged without coming to an
agreement, standing seven for convic-
ton, and five for acQuittal. On ac-
count OF the feeling which existed,
Bowen wants his next trial in some
other county than Stanley.

Bear Butte. s. d., Oct. 9-While en-
gagged in work on their mining claims
ON Bear Butte creek. Ed DRYER and
John Moberg, we'll known men of this
part Of the Black Hills, had an inter
esting experience with a bobcat, which
was something of a monster in size.
The first the two men knew of the
presence of the young wildcat was
when their dog came scampering back
TO camp. with the wildcat in close pur-
suit. The wildcat followed the dog
until it had reached within 200 feet of
Dryer, when Dryer fired at it with a
rifle. His aim was true, the bullet
striking the fierce animal in the heart
and killing it instantly. The wildcat
was about for feet in length.
