condition was discovered when the
senator began to take osteopathlc
treatment some years ago for neural
gia.
At the first battle of Franklin, April,
1863. Mr. Money was a cavalryman in
the Confederate service. While riding
through the streets he was struck by
bullet and fell from his horse, strik-
, ing on his head. Being hell ess, he
was captured and taken within the
Federal lines He did not ask for hos
| pital treatment, was exchanged later,
| rejoined his troop and fought until the
| war closed
| Years passed and Mr.. Money enter
| ed the senate. Neuralgia had taken a
| firm hold of him. and on the advice
| of Senator Foraker he went to New
| York. accompanied by his son, and
/ visited IN osteopathist. Almost the
doctors first remark was, why sena.
tor, you have had your neck broken"
Senator Money denied all knowledge
| of such an indction. The physician de-
| clared that one of the vertebrae had
been entirely pushed from the top OF
the column supporting the head and
was in wrong position. He demon
/ strated that the muscles on one sidt
/ OF the neck were fabby and useless.
"If you had been old enough TO take
part in the civil war" said the ply
sician. Il would say that you were

"That is just exactly what did hap

NO" replied the senator; II have
just had it set"
The physician told Senator Money
that he must exercise precaution until
the weakened muscles regained their
normal strength. He was cautioned
not to turn his head in looking at any
thing, but to move the entire body.
These instructions were observed, and
the neck apparently became as strong
as it was thirty-five years before the
operation.

Of Mississippi, at Oxford, Miss. and

TlLLMAN'S KICKING EXERCISE
How the Senator Is Training to Reduce
His Weiuht.

Senator Benjamin II. Tillman of South
Carolina. who has gone into training,
has been In poor health for more than
a year. Last year he made a trip to
Europe. His health improved, but with
it came a decided gain in weight, and
he resolved on heroic measures. His
success has been so marked that he
has confided his remedy to some of his
colleagues.
AS soon as he awakes in the morn
ing he throws his pillow to the floor
and lies fiat on his back In bed. Then
he tries to kick the headboard. AT first
he couldn't reach it. but daily practice
has limbered his muscles. and now he
can hit the mahogany with his toes
fifteen or twenty times in succession.
Since he began this exercise Mr.. Till
man has reduced his girth three inches.
He has advised some of. his colleagues
to try the treatment, but has told them
that it is not "mollycoddle" exercise
and will not produce results unless
they aim to "bang the stuffing out OF

Homes of Poor at Washington to Be

An invasion Of the homes of the
poor In Washington at night. when
the inmates shall have retired. Is said
to be one of the newest moves de-
signed for the religious. moral and
sanitary uplift of the national capital.

District Of Columbia: members of the

existing in the homes he will visit.
Upon these tours 1t is even said
newspaper men will be taken. the
purpose apparently is to inform the
public of sach conditions as may be
found to exist. Reports. too. will be
made to the Judge of the juvenile
court. The probation officer is quoted
as follows regarding his proposed ex-
petitions:
"This particular phase of the life OF
the poor has been SO far overlooked by
the juvenile court ] don't believe
that. as a general thing. we will lind
conditions very bad. but | am conf
dent what we do discover will prove q
valuable enlightenment TO the general
public. Little thought Is given at the
present time to the immortality engen-
dered by insufficient or badly arranged
sleeping quarters.
II do not think the manner IN which
we approach them will be In any way
offensive. Cur trip, while It may seem
hit unethical. Is distinctly tor The

ed the position of 'boss" Of that body.

RED CLOUD, THE SIOUX CHIEF
Anecdotes Told of the Famous Old In
dian Warrior.

Anecdotes Told of the Famous Old In
dian Warrior.
Red Cloud. the famous old Sioux In
dian chief. who recently died at the
Pine Ridge Indian agency in North
Dakota, was formerly one of the great
est of Indian chiefs He was born
sighty-six years ago. He was brought
up in obscurity his father being com
mon Indian warrior and not one of the
chiefs whom his son might have sue
ceeded. By sheer force of will, brav-
cry and intelligence Red Cloud rose
step by step to be the chief of the
greatest, most warlike and most saw
age tribe of American Indians. In his
war of thirty years against the whites
Red Cloud became known to the gov
ernment's Indian fighters as the bold
est and fiercest of Sioux leaders, and
1t was during those years that he grad
ually worked his way up until be was
recognized as the leader of all the
Sioux bands and tribes. Red Clouds
first notable victory is called the mas
sacre of Fort Phil kearny' In this
fight the Indian chief wiped out the
entire government force at the little
fort, losing several hundred Of his own
warriors in accomplishing this.
An amusing tale is told of dream
Red Cloud once had. He dreamed
that he was to be killed by lightning,
and the dream so troubled him that
he decided to assemble all the warriors
and medicine men in council and mix
medicine to be offered up to the Great
Spirit in the hope of warding off the
threatened danger. Accordingly the
Indians were assembled in two large
circles, one inside the other. Two
medicine lodges were pitched within
the inner circle, and. swinging two
large kettles upon poles over roaring
fire, the medicine men threw several
dogs in them and proceeded to boil
them. When the CANNES were done
they were taken out of the kettles
carved. distributed among the assem-
bed savages and eaten by them in
behalf of their chieftain. The dog
feast" lasted two days. and at the end
of that time Red Cloud believed the
Great Spirit had been appeased. lie
was not struck by lightning, and he
attributed his escape from death In
that form to the dog meat his people
ate.
Red Cloud was once asked to tell the
story Of the most thrilling experience
he ever met with. 1t was a tale of one
man against seven, and the old chiefs
dim eyes grew bright and his wrinkled
face lighted up with a strange light al
