BATTLES OF 9TH CAVALRY
General Clusters Regiment Had Many
Thrilling FlghtS With Indians
From 1872 to 1875.

In 1872 the Seventh United States
cavalry had been scattered through
seven states In the south serving a.
constabulary to aid the officers in the
reconstruction policy. says the Nation
al Tribune in response to a query. The
threatening attitude Of the Sioux in
Dakota called for cavalry and the
Seventh was sent thither. Gen. 8. D.
Sturgis. the colonel Of the regiment.
was assigned to duty at st. Paul,
Mimi, and Major Reno with one squad
ron was detailed for escort duty with
the boundary commission. The rest Of
the regiment went to Yankton, and
then under Lieutenant General Custer
reported to General Stanley at Fort
Rice, where 1t was assigned to duty in
protecting the surveyors of the North
ern Pacific railroad. The column left
Fort Rice June "a, and August 4 Cen
eral Custer had a fight with 300 Indi-
ans near what was afterwards Fort
keogh and drove the Indians from the
field by a charge. The next day the
Indians killed the sutler, veterinary
surgeon and one enlisted man. August
II the Indians attacked the regiment
while in camp on the Yellowstone, but
were driven OF and then pursued eight
miles. The regiment lost one officer
and two men wounded and one man
killed. The Indian loss was 40 killed
and wounded.
In June, 1874, Custer went out from
Fort Abraham Lincoln to reconnoiter
the country, and spent go days In this
In September. 1874, six troops under
Major Lewis Merrill were sent to the
department of the gulf, where they re-
mained until the spring of 1876. Then
all the troops of the regiment were
concentrated at Fort Lincoln to join
Terry's column against the Sioux. The
column left Fort Lincoln May II, and
June 22 the trail of a large body Of
Indians was discovered on Rosebud
river, and Custer was sent with hts
regiment to follow this. The scouts
reported that large camp had been
discovered in the valley of the Little
Big Horn. In order to prevent the es-
cape Of the Indians Custer decided to
attack at once, and divided his regt-
ment into three squadrons, one of five
troops, which he commanded, and the
others of three troops each, to be com
manded by Reno and Benteen. Reno
was given the advance, while Benteen
was sent off to the left and south

The Indians Attacked the Regir
While in Camp.

Reno attacked first the greatest collec-
ton of Indians that had been seen
within the memory of man, and was
forced back on to the hills. Then the
Indians turned their whole force upon
Custer, who had made an attack from
the other side, and 5000 warriors
equipped with the best magazine rifles
surrounded the detachment and speed
lily exterminated it. Custer had with
him II officers and 191 enlisted men.
All of these were killed, as well as
Second Lieutenant Crittenden, Acting
Assistant Surgeon DeWolf, Clusters
brother and nephew, and Scout Rey-
nolds. Reno lost two officers and 46
men killed, and his surgeon and scout.
Forty-four enlisted men were wound
ed. The Indians renewed their attack
on Reno, but were driven off and final
ly retreated. On the morning Of June
27 General Terry came on the battle
field and discovered Clusters fate. The
Indians dispersed and Sitting Bull
with the larger part Of them moved
across the line into Canada. After
some further operations against the
Indians the regiment, except Troop G,
concentrated at Fort Lincoln, and May
l. 1877, left there to join in the opera
tions against the Nez Perces. Septem-
ber ig. 1877, the Nez Perces were over
taken and a fight followed, in which
three enlisted men we're killed and
Captain French and ten men wounded.
September 30, 1877, the regiment had
a severe fight with the Indians in the
valley of Snake Creek, and finally, Oc-
tober 4, Chief Joseph surrendered with

STUBBORN ECZEMA ON HANDS

Some nine years ago l noticed
small pimples breaking out on the
back of my hands. They became very
Irritating, and gradually became
worse, so that l could not sleep at
night. l consulted physician who
treated me long time, but it got
worse, and l could not put my hands
in water. / was treated at the hos
pital, and it was just the same. / was
told that it was a very bad case of
eczema. Well, l just kept on using
everything that / could for nearly
eight years until l was advised to try
CutiCura Ointment. l did so, and
found after few applications and by
bandaging my hands well up that the
burning sensations were disappearing,
could sleep well, and did not have
any itching during the night. l began
after while to use Cuticura Soap for
a wash for them, and think by using
the Soap and Ointment l was much
benefited. l stuck to the Cuticura
treatment, and thought If | could use
other remedies for over seven years
with no result, and after only having
few applications and finding ease
from Cuticura Ointment, l thought it
deserved a fair trial with a severe
and stubborn case. l used the Oint-
ment and Soap for nearly six months,
and am glad to say that l have
hands as clear as anyone.

To Hear Liability Law Talk.

Fred G. Sweatman, chairman of the
compensation committee of the Ma
tional Manufacturers association, has
been secured by the members of the
employers liability commission to
give an illustrated lecture on the
workings of the German liability law
before the legislature, when the re-
port of the commission is submitted
and when the proposed liability law
for Ohio is introduced into the legis-
lature. Half of the commissions re-
port, dealing with the 80 public hear
is ready for submission to Governor
Harmon, and it is thought the other
half will be completed within three
weeks. The whole will embrace two
volumes Of 500 printed pages each
and will include the reports of the
three liability experts, E. E. Watson,
William Harnes and William Peacock,
who recently completed statistics on
Cuyahoga county for the last five
years. Reports of the experts will
show the fatalities and accidents of
married and single men in industrial
work from 1906 till 1911, in and about
Cleveland. It. is said that the report
compares favorably with the report Of
the German commissions, which
showed that more than 43 per cent. of
the accidents in that country occur
on farms.

NO BALDHEADS IN
THE BUCKEYE PEN
NOT ONE AMONG 1900 COHVICTS WITH
OUT FULL QUOTA OF TOP THATGR.
NIGHT GUARD, ON THE OTHER
HAND, SAID TO QUALIFY AS
A HAIRLESS MAN.

Columbus.-If you want to go
through life with plenty of the "downy"
on top of your head, if you don't
want to be pointed out by every
mother in the city as an horrible ex-
ample of the deVotee to the pace that
kills and fills the front rows at musi-
cal comedies, and if you want to be
able to look every tonsorial artist in
the state in the face and tell him to
go to see somebody else, just break
some one of the laws of the state,
get in bad with the judge and draw
a sentence to the Ohio penitentiary.
For there isn't baldheaded convict
in the big prison. Most of them are
married men, too. It's fact that has
aroused considerable comment and
speculation among the prison officials
since it was first noticed.
No one seems to be able to account
for the peculiar state of affairs. 1t
would seem that among 1000 men
there would be at least one who is
minus the usual hirsute adornmeht.
Whatever it is that accounts for it,
the hair tonic used by convicts of
the gray manor" has anything beaten
that was ever put on the market Per
haps one reason is revealed by the
fact that each man gets a haircut
once a month instead of once every
two weeks, as every self-respecting
member Of the BARRIERS union endeav-
ors to impress upon each customer is
necessary. Perhaps it is because the
men are shaved only once week,
sometimes twice, if they are lucky
Perhaps these two innovations in the
barber shop regime, working harmo-
niously, tend to increase the life of
that which adorns mems heads.
But whatever it is and however it
may be accounted for, what the prison
officials want to know is, since there
isn't baldheaded convict in the pris-
on, why has the night guard at the
annex lost every single hair on his
body? Here is another strange fact
that is nevertheless true. This guard
never visits a barber shop, hasn't, in
deed, for some time. He can't get a
hair cut, for lack of the proper ele-
ment. His head is as smooth as the
proverbial billiard ball. He can't get
a shave, for his face is as soft as
miladi's. And, worst of all, he lost
his finger nails and toenails. Here,
however, he has some consolation.
Substitutes are appearing.

Character of Business Counts.

Judge Kinkead decided that it is
the character of it's business rather
than the charter which makes a rail
way railroad" or an "interurban"
for the purpose of taxation. He over
ruled the demurrers of Attorney Gen
eral Denman for the state tax com
mission to injunction suits brought
by the Cincinnati, Georgetown and
Portsmouth Railway Co. and the Fe-
licity and Bethel Railway Co., in
which the tax commission was re-
strained from certifying the roads to
the state auditor as steam railroads.
AS railroads" they were liable to
an excise tax of four per cent. on
their gross earnings, against IL per
cent. as "interurbans." Both roads
were originally steam railroads, but
several years ago they changed their
motive power and the character of
their business. By Judge Kinkead's
decision the restraining order given
them will be continued in force.

Drafting Liability Bill.

Drafting Liability Bill.
Provision for compulsory state
administered liability insurance fund
has been made in the bill now being
drafted by the commission appointed
to investigate employers liability
and workingmen's compensation.
Rates of assessment will be deter
mined for each industry separately.
A plant with large number of acci-
dents will pay more than a factory
having fewer accidents. This is eX-
pected to reduce greatly the number
Of accidents. The heirs of a work
ingman who is killed will be paid
from the fund for 800 weeks. Pay
ments will range form S. to $40 or
$12 weekly, depending on the wage of
the worker. Where the laborer was
paid $1,000 a year or less, the in
surance payment will be two-thirds
of the wage. For workingmen who
were paid over $1,000 annually the in
surance will be one-half the wage
Details of a similar plan for ac-
cident benefits have not been worked
out Operation under the proposed
law would drive indemnity insurance
companies out of the state. The con-
stiutionality of state insurance
fund has been questioned, but if it
is not sustained by the courts Il
constitutional amendment will be de-
manded. All payments under the law
would be made regardless of any
question of contributory negligence.

and loose business methods, was re-

April, 1907, and September, 1910, filed
recently with the state bureau of in

called upon to refund $1,577.1O, al
legged illegal fees to themselves and
illegal payments to others. No names
