 The Seward na.y oarenay in is edition of April fa claims rhat the famous ~IIoun DawE" souE is of German origin. and i- was evidently that they made this statement before they noticed the proof which We gave iu our edition or April lS in whth We proved couclusivcly that the Champ Clark refrain" is taken from the early Chilcat folk lore.
 The Gateway says:
 The "HOun DawE" song. which Mis- sour minstrels have nominated for chief Democratic hono0s as a cam paign hymn. was not born in the o. ark Mountains, as the followers of Champ Clark have asserted. Accord ing to musicians. it is an old German cradle song. written before li99. Here are the words in the original German:
 Jedes nal ich ins dorfchen komm StosSen die iunEens mein hund herum Mir isis egal sonst sic thun Sic durfen nicht stossen mein hun5
 horUm
 The literal translation is as fol- lows:
 Every time ] come into the little Ni'-
 laCe
 The boys knock my dog around It's all the same to me what else
 they do
 They must not knock my dog around.
 Tn the German scrap-book of the 18th century the song Is entitled: The Lay of the Dog" and contains several stanzas. the lines sung in the O7arks being merely the refrain.

INDIAN MEDICINE MANS
 SLAYER WAS JUSTIFIED

DAWSON, April l2-Enoch, the venerable White River Indian, who was tried here last week on the charge of numbering Cheechaco, an other Indian on the Donjec last fall, left yesterday for his home at Coffee creek. He is accompanied by Biil Nj. Little Jack. Mrs. Little Jack and two children. It is expected there wall be much rejoicing among the reds when Enoch gets home with the tidiuCs tha. he was not made to suffer for having shot Cheechaco in self-defeDsa.
 The witnesses from up the White told the court that CheeChaco was a biz doctor" or medicine man. and acted most tyraRniCally toward the other natives. It was testified that . on many occasions he had threatened others and that it was thought some thing would have to be done to curb him. The whites as well as the re7s were molestei.
 The natives of the upper While. near the second canyon, comprised the NeenananS. the TauaUans and the Sticks. The Sticks are said to have learned the ways of cultus whites. while the others are given the credit of being truthful and hon orabIe in every way. The natives there are extremely hardy A re- cent arrival tells of seeing a hahy dad only in a Mother Hubbard touch ing the ankles and without mo1cas- irs. playing on the ground in an open tent with the thermometer near zero.
