Last Indian FIGHTER.

One of the most distinguished as
well as one of the last famous Indian
fighters who subdued the hostile red
skins of the West is Lieut.. Gen. Nelson
Appleton Miles. Born in Westminster,
Mass, August s, 1889, he began his
military career at the outbreak of the
Civil war, starting as first lieutenant
and winning his way by sheer merit
and fighting ability to the rank of ma
jor general of volunteers. Just half a
century ago he entered the regular
army as q colonel, becoming briga-
der general in 1880, a major general in
1890, and lieutenant general in 1900,
three years before his retirement from
active service. General Miles took
part in the campaign against nearly
all of the more formidable Indian war
chiefs, including Sitting Bull, Crazy
Horse, Geronimo, Chief Joseph and
Natchez. He represented the United
States army abroad during the Turco-
Grecian war, and was an unofficial OBJ
server at the more recent Balkan wars,
while his son, Maj. Sherman Miles, was
military attache with the Balkan al
lies during those bloody struggles. Gen.
eral Miles was in Sofia, the capital of
Bulgaria, ut the outbreak of the pres
ent European war.

Boggs was approached by commit

he signed paper promising to pay 81,
and opposite he placed the name of
Charley Stewart chief clerk Of the
commission, in whose Office at the
statehouse Boggs has a desk. BogSs
came home and waited Developments.
Soon Stewart was notified that his
contribution to the Anderson Y. M. G.
A. was due He didn't say much,
but apparently did lot of thinking.
The other day he caught Boggs in
the offices as another dun came in.
Stewart opened and read the "dun,"
which was more or less insistent in its
tone.
Then he walked over to Boggs.
LEND me a dollar, will you, Harry?"
he asked.
And Boggs dived into his pocket and
produced the dollar.
"Now I'll just pay this bill for you"

Fertile Acre in City Limits.

John S. Ware, secretary and treas
urer of the Cumberland Trust company
and until recently deputy state treas
urer, is an enthusiast in truck raising,
and has most productive acre OF land
connected with his residence directly
In Bridgeton. This year Mr.. Ware has
taken from this single acre over $1,000
worth of produce, and with the fall
and winter crops expects TO make the
yield run up to 81 800.
A quarter-acre has yielded 5000
worth of onions, one-third of an acre
5000 worth of lettuce, and from an
other quarter-acre $3.50 worth Of to-
matoes have already been sold. Mr..
Ware will easily pick $500 worth of

To Good Purpose.

That Madame Sarah Bernhardt
should have become French subject
has puzzled great many people. The
seeming mystery is explained, however,
by the fact that when "the Divine
Sarah" married Greek in the early
eighties she took her husbands ma
tionality.
The famous tragedienne tells an
amusing little story Of two kind
hearted old ladies who set out one day
TO buy couple of seats for Bern
hardt matinee" On their way to the
theater they changed their minds, de-
termined to deny themselves pleasure
and TO give the money for the seats
to two poor relations instead.
They did so. A short time afterward,
meeting the poor relations, they ven
tured to express hope that the money
had been found of good service.
''Indeed 1t was" they were told. I'VE

HOW LEADING RUSSIAN WOMAN

For One Thing, She Says, ait Has

.You will learn in America that this

doctor said. at is teaching us that
we are strong; it has issued call
commanding us to organize and act
not only in war, but in peace 1t has
taught MS to see world larger than
the world of the family doorstep. 1t
has shown us that we can do all the
necessary old duties and have energy
and desire to accept new labors. This
morning at breakfast my children
spoke of Russian victory. / said to
them that the great Russian victories
were In the new thought and visions
of the people,
The doctor did not speak of any
class or sex; she made no distinction
between different kinds of Russian
hearts and Russian heads. There are
almost twice as many men, women
and children in the empire as in our
states, and the doctor seemed to in
clude them all. The doctor was near
ing middle age, but was still pretty,
even in severe wooden suit
The reason for her disregard of sex
is not difficult to define. Russia Is the
foremost undeveloped country in the
world. Like it's own fiat, gray expanse
of physical surface, beneath which I'M
touched treasures of resource lie, a
crust Of mystery covers the human
resource of the Russian millions. The
charm of Russia is not in its romantic,
hazardous, youthful past, but in the
suppressed seething of human force
beneath the crust. What will burst
cracking open the surface, rending the
cover, let loose?
When / went to Russia to put my
ear where / could hear beneath the
crust the new bubble and heaving of
potentiality, writes Richard Washburn
Child In the Century, the volcanic
seethlng which the war has filled with
new tremors, did not think of the
Russian woman at all.

ton about the future commercial de-
velopment of the land and about the
opportunities for American business.
A woman drew for me sthe clearest
picture of what was needed to organize
for military victories. 1t was the wom-
an Of Russia who, without distortion
of self-interest, of prejudice or fear,
could see what the new human growth
required of compromise with the pres

most delicate question which Russia
must determine in the decade which
follows the final peace.

ROMANCE OF ROSES
PRETTY LOVE STORY THAT BE-
GAN WITH THE FLOWERS.
IL Was Sai!ie That Gave the Young
Couple an Excuse for Calling, But
in Short Time They
Needed No Excuse.

Betty, the secretary of our club, has
had pretty love story, relates the
Chicago Tribune. 1t began in rain
storm. When the rain was pelting
down its liveliest Betty came into the
street from an elevated road station.
At the bottom of the steps stood boy
selling flowers. He had only two
roses left, glorious, half-blown pink
ones.
"I'll have those roses, If you please"
said Betty. And, 'I'll have those roses,
If you please" said another voice at
longed to man. He was a young
man, and when Betty looked up and
he looked down, both smiled. Despite
the dampness of his clothes the boy
smiled too.
WELL" he said, (which of you is
goin' to have 'em?'
"You," said Betty. you spoke
first"
mo, you. l think you did," said the
young man.
The boy, being diplomat as well as
a flower seller, suggested that they
"divvy up
"Why not? 2" said the man. 81 want
my roses for a friend who Is i'll, and
she can't smell but one rose at "a time,
now, can she?"
81 suppose not" said Betty. II also
e.. f,,..
and she can't smell but one rose at a
time"
So they "divvied up" They left the
station together, and since their ways
lay in the same direction, they walked
together for three blocks. Presently
both turned into the same side street
and both stopped at the same house in
the middle of the block and both rang
the bell of the same fiat.
Don't tell me it is Sallie Miller that
you are bringing that rose to-" said
Betty incredulously.
"Sure it is" said Betty.
So they climbed the stairs together.
"Won't Sallie be surprised to see us
COlulnS tOSCluCl Sdiu pttlJ' NtAiiS
was surprised.
81 didn't know that you two knew
each other" she said.
1--WE don't-we didn't" said Betty.
Then they told the story of the roses.
Sallie liked the roses, but, being a
sympathetic soul, she liked the story
better. 81 am so glad" she said. you
must both come again on Wednesday
at this same time"
They went away together. Their
talk was mostly of Sallie. Each said
how wonderful it was that the other
knew Sallie. At the corner they sep
arated.
IT go this way said Betty. "And
that" said he. 81 hope we will meet
again-at Sallie's," he added.
80, yes, at Sallie's." said Betty.
OF course they met-at Sallie's.
Their engagement is now six months
old. They will be married soon.

Many Mighty Peaks.

The Continental divide zigzags

The air is eXhilarating as cham
payne; though the heat in summer
time is very great during the noontide
hours, at shutdown refreshingly cool
breeze invariably springs up and a
heavy dew begins to fall. 1t is a most
delightful experience to roam then
through the beautiful forest, listen
ing to the tinkle of the bells as the
herds of sheep, cattle, pigs, buffaloes
wander down the magnificent aises,
to the flute of the shepherd and the
horn of the guardian of the swine.
Equally pleasing it is, during the heat
of the day, to spend long hours of
dolce far niente on springy bed of
wild thyme by the side of brawling
streamlet-I may add that for the in
veterate angler it is an even more en-
joyable experience to extract from Its
dark pools and alluring stickles many
a lusty trout. For almost all of these
forest 'burns" abound in fish-not
very large, 1t is true, but vigorous
fighters, giving excellent sport.
Big Landowners the Rule.
There are very few tenant farmers
in the country; immensely big land
owners are the rule, and these, with
the aid of host of baiiiffs, manage
their own estates. They devote each
farm to some special object; one, for
Instance, is the OK farm, another the
sheep farm, third is set aside for
horses, a fourth for donkeys, another
for poultry, another for pigs, and yet
another Is the dairy farm.
1t is, by the way, rather curious
fact that cows milk is despised by all,
rich man and peasant alike. 1t is
looked upon as only fit for pigs and
calves, or to be mixed with other milk
in the making of cheese. Only buffalo
milk Is considered fit for human con-
sumption; this is, however, TO an Eng
fish palate, far too rich, both in quail
ity and flavor.
Outside almost every village In
Pennsylvania is the gypsy quarter.
Outside it, not in 1t, for the despised
Tzigany is never allowed to dwell
among the villagers or to mix with
them on equal terms. He is the basket
maker, occasionally the brickmaker,
of the neighborhood-but always and
everywhere he is the music-maker. The
gypsies are the orchestra of every
town and village, at every fiesta they
play untiringly, hour after hour, while
the peasants dance. Men and women
alike are lowered with the gift of mu-
sic, and the wild Czardas crashed out
by Tzigany band makes even the
cool blood of Northerner tingle In his
veins.
But fiddling is not the gypsy's only
accomplishment; he is also a most ex-
pert thief. In fact, legend of the
country says that when a Tzigany
baby makes It's entrance into this vale
of tears it is laid on its back upon the
ground, while purse is placed on It's
right side and fiddle ON Its left Ac-
cording to the direction in which 1t
first extends a tiny fist its profession
in life is determined!

SUFFRAGETS JUBILANT
PROMINENT EQUAL FRANCHISE
SPEAKERS, HERE TODAY. SEE
SOUTH DAKOTA VICTORY.

With enthusiasm e~ngendered by
encouragement accorded them i'm
most of the larger cities and towns
of the state. DR.. Effie McCullom
Jones, of Iowa, Mrs. Elsie Y. Bene-
diet. of Colorado. and Mrs. Emma
Smith DeNoe, Of Washington. who
compose the Flying Squadron" Of
the South Dakota Universal Fran
chise league, arrived in the city this
morning.
Two of the ladies. Mrs. Benedict
and Mrs. De Voc, are voters. DR..
Jones expects to cast a ballot in the
not distant future. There is not one
of the three ladies but sees votes for
women in South Dakota after this
fall.
DR.. Jones explained for the benefit
of the readers of The Daily Leader
that suffrage never doomed brighter
on the horizon than il does now.
We have been campaigning for
six weeks in South Dakota" said Or.
Jones, and we have everywhere met
with large and enthusiastic gather
ings of equal rights adherents. In
this campaign We are depending al
most wholly upon individual work
ers, and / can safely say hal never
before have there been so many
women working for their rights as
there are right now"
The speaker explained that twelve
states, which control one-fifth of the
electoral votes, now have suffrage,
and she pointed out that this year,
for the first time, suffrage planks are
incorporated in the platforms of the
republicans and the democrats. She
said there is no doubt in her mind
that South Dakota would line up
with all the states to the west of her
and give the women the franchise.
DR.. Jones this afternoon addressed
a conference of women in the high
school. She advised her hearers
along lines of organization, publicity
and methods of financing the cam
paign.
Mrs. Benedict will address an out.
door meeting on Egan avenue at 7:3C
o'clock this evening. and the big
mass meeting at $50 o'clock in the
high school auditorium, to which the
general public is invited, will be ad-
dressed by Mrs. DeVoe.

HOG CHOLERA HERE
DISEASE MAKES ITS APPEAR
ANCE IN PENS IN SOUTH
PART OF CITY.

Hog cholera has made its appear
ance in Madison. The disease has
broken out in the pens owned by l..
n. Sylvester, night policeman, on
South Egan avenue, where there are
nineteen small and three large pigs.
1t is feared that most of the animals
will be lost.
Although the weather of the past
couple of months has been conducive
to the spreading of infectious disease
local veterinarians say there has been
very little hog cholera in Lake coun-
ty during the present m Drs.
II. A. Hartwich and w f. Kinney
said today that so far as they are
aware less than a half dozen herds in
the country around here had been
infected this year.
The doctors told that particularly
at this time extreme care should be
taken to prevent contagion. The
dry, hot weather will not only per-
nit the disease germs to thrive, but
will tend to cause them to scatter
with dust.
DR.. Hartwich advised that hogs be
kept away from the ravine in the
south end of the city leading to Lake
Madison.

seats be installed in Library park.
The petitions, which We're Identical,
were as follows, i'm part.
For want OF lighting and made
quate seating capacity, we. the home
makers and club women of Madison,
do not believe that the park per
forms the function for which it was
intended. The park, school grounds
and infrequented are the
meeting place for needless young
folks. and we know that the present
conditions are fostering immoral
practices among immature girls of
our city. The condition is a ource
of unpleasant comment from strang-
ers.s The lights should be of a char
acter that cannot be extinguished by
unofficial persons. and that would
the proper use of the park and
school grounds"
The commissioners took the petit
tions under advisement. IL is said
that additional lights will probably
be installed in the park in the near
future.
