the brave the female bird was forag-
ing for its young and would soon re-
turn, so he sought place of vantage
and patiently waited. The second
eagle soon appeared, bearing in her
talons young rabbit just caught.
AS she alighted near the nest the brave
took deliberate aim and shot an ar
row into her, which caused her to
drop the rabbit to the bottom of the
cliff near where the young squaw was
standing. AS soon as he had shot the
eagle the young brave fastened to
where his squaw was. AS he started
both eagles attacked him. AS he was
on the side of the cliff with insecure
footing, he was unable to exert his
strength or use his bow and arrow, so
the eagles beat him to insensibility
with their wings and he fell to the
bottom of the cliff near the young
squaw.
So terrified by the occurrence was
she that she fled from the place and
was afterwards found raying on the
plains, helpless lunatic, constantly
relating strange stories about the
monsters that inhabited the Hills and
had devourod her husband. A year
or more later venturesome Indians in
vaded the Hills and found the plaet
where the runaways had camped.
They also found the skeleton of the
young brave near spring, and ashort
distance therefrom the remains of the
eagle with an arrow in her breast.
Far up the cliff sat big eagle on his
perch as though guarding the old nest
and the remains of his mate. So runs
the Indian legend. The eagle has by
his silent vigils been known as 'Old
Lonesome" by the settlers for over a
third of a century and held in reyer-
ence BY many Of them. The bird is
now attracting attention in the his
torical building and will be a subject
of interest for many years.

old EAGLE
ION EXHIBITION
Eagle Which Inhabited Hills
Now Feature Of Histor-
ical Museum.
ne VAS AucH FEARED BY ALL The INDIANS
Said to Have Killed cheyenne Brave
Many Years Ago-Known as
Evil Spirit.

Henry Lee of Pierre has mounted
and placed in the historical society
rooms at Pierre specimen of the
Golden American eagle secured in the
Black Hills. The bird is above aver
age size and is said to be over 100
years old, having died a natural death,
and with known history dating some
thirty years. The bird was known
and feared by the Indians for many
years prior to the appearance of the
white man in the chase for gold in
the Hills.
Mr.. Lee is a taxidermist and natur-
alist of considerable renown, and hav-
ing heard marvellous stories Of the
eagle came here in search of him with
intention of taking him dead or alive.
The bird has for years made his home
on shelf of rocks near the mountain
ranch of G. b. Marsh, about ten miles
northeast of this city. Arriving at
the ranch in company with E. N.
Norman, last May, Mr.. Lee was sur
prised to learn the bird had not been
seen for several days. A search was
made near the nest and the body of
the bird found at the bottom of the
cliff, apparently having died of natural
causes due to old age.
The bird has been known so long 1t
has been dubbed "Old Lonesome"
and by that name will be remembered
by the old settlers especially. AS the
story goes, the Indians universally
feared to penetrate far into the Hills
as evil spirits are supposed by the
race to dwell there on account of the
frequency of thunder and storms. On
this account they affirm the southern
Hills we're inhabited by fierce ami
mails which preyed upon the red man
and killed him by beating his head
with great wings and digging his eyes
out with claws. In fact any old Sioux
Indian will point to the Hills, shake
his head and grunt obviously in af-
firmation of the story, all of which is
apparently closely connected with the
life history of the bird now mounted
by Mr.. Lee.
The legend is that great many
years ago the daughter of a Sioux
chief became enamoured Of Chey.

consent to their union, so the young

MAS ONLY TAKING A BATH
o. lngel Goes to Sioux City to Buy
a New Suit of Clothes and
Learns Something.

Sioux City Tribune: Amassing
quite sum of money in the harvest
fields of Pennington county, South
Dakota, d. Ingel rode into Sioux City
with crowd of "hoboes" on a freight
train yesterday and later in the after
noon was arrested while taking bath
in the Missouri at the foot of Doug
lass street.
After reaching Sioux City Ingel
parted company with the tramps and
purchased him new outfit to take
the place of the we'll used overalls and
jumper he was wearing, at the same
time partaking rather freely of strong
drink.
Before donning the new clothing,
however, Ingel thought he should
.lAvc !. oath, so he. went to the Mis-
souri,, stripped off and jumped in.
Persons in the vicinity who saw him
leap into the river surmised that he
was attempting self destruction and
Patrolman Colvin answered the hurry
call sent to police headquarters.
Ingel was about five feet out in the
stream and refused to come to shore
when ordered to do so by the patrol
man.
'I'm in here to get some of that
South Dakota dirt out of my skin and
I'll come out when I'm through tax
ing this BATH" said Ingel as he lib
orally applied soap to his body.
For twenty minutes Colvin stood
guard on the bank Of the river until
Ingel came out. Then the officer hus-
tied him into the dog pound, where
he donned his new clothing and, all
dressed up, was taken to police head
quarters, where a charge Of intoxica-
tion was placed against him.
''Merely taking a bath your honor,
and that was all" said Ingel when
arraigned before Acting Police Judge
Ole I. Nelson this morning. He was
fined SIS, money in the hands of the
court being applied to satisfy the fine.

A PROCLAMATION
BY THE GOVERNOR

Whereas, 1t is known that a certain
infectious disease described as NEGRO.
baeillosis (mouth and leg uleeration)
is now prevalent among sheep in GER
tain localities in the state of Utah and
adjoining states, and the United States
Department of Agriculture and other
competent authorities admonish the
public as to the highly infectious and
dangerous character OF said disease,
and, if unchecked, of its likelihood of
destroying the sheep industry of this
and other commemorative; and
Whereas, The State Board of Sheep
Commissioners of Nevada has quaran-
tined all sheep sought to be brought
into this state from the state of Utah,
unless properly inspected and eertifi-
ed; and
Whereas, In order to preserve one
of the chief industries of the state Of
Nevada it is necessary that said dis
ease be stamped out and prevented
from e%ncroaching upon our hocks.
Now therefore, /, d. s. Dickerson,
Lieutenant and Acting Governor, do
hereby urge upon all officers whose
duty it is or may become to enforce
the said quarantine, and all persons
engaged in the raising of sheep, or wht
are interested therein, to bend every
effort toward the eradication of thu
disease of necobacillosis, and to rigidly
uphold and enforce the quarantine
, regulations now in effect against sheer

PREVENTING PAINT TROUBLES.

It's easy enough to recognize the
symptoms of poor paint, after it has
been on awhile-after its inherent
tendency to crack and peel and scale
and blister, ETC., has developed into
trouble. You know these paint dis
| eases" usually indicate adulteration
or substitution in the paint materials.
And you know the only remedy is re-
painting.
A little knowledge of paint and
painting requirements, and how to
made sure Of the purity and quality
of materials, would prevent all trou-
BILE, and save the big extra expense of
re-painting; just as proper knowl-
edge of simple health-laws, and OBJ
servance of them, prevents sickness.

LESS MEAT
Advice of Family Physician.

Formerly people thought meat nee
essary for strength and muscular
vigor.
The man who worked hard was sup
posed to require meat two or three
times day. Science has found out
differently.
1t is now common thing for fam
lily physician to order less meat, as in
the following letter from a N. Y. man.
Il had suffered for years with dys-
pepsia and nervousness. Ny physician
advised me to eat less meat and
greasy foods generally. tried several
things to take the place of my usual
breakfast OF chops. fried potatoes. etc,
but got no relief until tried Grape
Nuts food.

cereal part of my meals for two years,

benefited my health far more than the

before.
my wife and children are healthier
than they had been for years. and we
