INDIANS IN COUNCIL
Sioux Want Government to
Adjust Difficulty With
Chicago Packers.

Gettysburg, Feb. 17.-At a general
council of Sioux Indians held at Cherry
Creek agency, Forest City, west OF
Gettysburg, Paul Bull Eagle presided
and Mr.. Clarence Ward offered prayer.
Thirty delegates responded to the
roll call. An animated discussion
arose in regard to the shipment OF
cattle from the reservations to Chicago
stock yards and the allegations made
by a committee that the weights OF
the cattle at the shipping point in
South Dakota and at Chicago stock
yards was 80 remarkably different and
the loss of money thereby so great to
the Sioux that it was decided to ask
the interior department at Washing
ton to send a special agent to adjust
the matter between the Indians and
the meat packers at Chicago.
Superintendent Campbell addressed
the Indians and they decided to ask for
an investigation of the whole matter OF
the differences in the tally of the
weights of cattle when shipped, and
On arrival at the Chicago stock yards.
The council elected a delegation to
visit the Indian department, at Wash.
ington on behalf of the various matters
vital to the Sioux Indians and the
reservation. Black Spotted Horse,
Flank Dupris, Albert Madison, Harry
Woods and Harry Haneman were APP
pointed and ON motion Lazy White
Bull, ClareLce Ward, and Noes
Straight Head were asked to give the
delegate IN some advice as how to
represent the Sioux in Washington
before the great Fathers.
The council decided to ask the
interior department how much it
would cost to move the Indian agency
from Cheyenne agency, near Forest
City, to Eagle Butte. and it was de.
cided to ask the government to divide
equally the money from the sale Of
coded Indian lands in buying cattle
for the Sioux and per capita pay
ments.
Solomon Yellow Hawk offered pray
er at the adjourned meeting and q mo-
tion to discontinue the fair on the res
ervation was lost. The transfer of
John Did Not 90 Home, a minor,
allowed. Paul Eagle Bull was
given charge of the United States
national flag, given to the Sioux H.
dams at Eagle Butte recently.

M|CRObE MANIA


Paris, Feb. 1.-THE microbe mania
has driven many people to injure them
selves in refusing to drink ordinary
water, according to Henry Savage
Lander. The explorer declares that
water even from sources considered
in pure ia often harmless and cites
instances when he has drunk from
polluted streams.
when you boil water you vitalize
it" he explained in a recent discus
zion of drinking water. 81 have been
drinking from streams and ponds in
the tro pics and all over the world fer
twenty five years and | am convinced
that people are wrong in believing
that there is any danger in water that
is dirty or that may actually have dis
ease germs in it
Il remember a FIVE weeks trip |
took with one or the American ex-
peditionary columns in the Philip.
pines. The doctors laid down absolute
rules that no soldier should drink water
until it had been boiled or take a bath
in any river or lake because cholera
was about. The pack animals were
loaded down with cans in which TO boil
the water, and during all this expedi-
ton | do not believe a single soldier or
officer drank water that had not been
boiled, or ventured to battle in any
Of the creeks or ponds that WI ran
across. | was the scandal Of the
party because | insisted upon drinking
from the streams and lakes and refused
to drink the boiled water. / vas the
only man in the expedition who re-
turned in a lit condition
Lander added hat when he found
tainted water he simply took less of it
than he did of the pure.
Contrary to the prevailing view.
Mr.. Landor's experience is that in do
ing without food one does not car
much for water. He and two native
servants were without food sixteen
days during his exploration of remote
parts Of Brazil. I'VE had plenty of
water during this starvation period"
said he, ''but we took very little be-
cause we did not want it. With ex-
treme hunger went also the desire for
