SHARPE GROVER, BEST SCOUT
GOVERNMENT EVER HAD"
}, Western Newspaper Union

"The best scout the government ever
had" said some Of the army officers
for whom Sharpe Grover secuted dur
ing the Indian wars In Kansas In
1S67-6S, and more than once he showed
himself worthy Of the title. He had
married a Sioux woman, and lived
with the tribe for years. He could
sneak their language and knew their
ways. AS q trailer and reader OF
signs, Grover was without peer.
He could tell how long since the
tracks had meen made; whether they
were by horses or ponies, shod or un'
shod; how many were ridden, how
many were driven; whether 1t was 9
war party or one moving from one
camp to another.
When the Sioux went ON the war
path In 1866, Grover left them and
Joined the army as a scout for Custer
In August, 1868, with Billy Comstock'
another noted scout, he visited the
camp Of Chief Turkey Leg Of the Chey'
ennes, whose warriors were supposed
to be friendly. One Of the Indians,
however, saw the fine pearl-handled re-
yolver carried by Comstock and deter
mined to have It. When the scouts
left the camp seven Cheyennes rode
away with them.
While engaged In friendly conversa-
ton, the Indians suddenly dropped to
the rear and opened fire. Comstock
was killed instantly and Grover badly
wounded, but lying on the ground and
making a desperate defense Of Com
stocks body. he fought off the Indians
until nightfall and escaped.
The next month Grover Joined Gen.
G. A. Forsyth's band Of scouts and
was with them at the celebrated
Beecher's Island fight. As Roman
Noses warriors shouted to each other,
Grover understood everything they
said, and told Forsyth what they were
planning to do. After the biggest
charge Of the Sioux and Cheyennes
had been turned back, Forsyth turned
to Grover and said: Can they do bet.
ter than that, GroverY
II have been on the plains, man and
boy, for 80 years, and never saw such
a charge before" was the scouts reply.
II think they have done their level
best"
"AIl right, we're good for them,
then" said Forsyth.
For years the fact that Grover was
with Forsyth that day was kept from
the Indians, for he was friendly with
them, and they would have killed him
without mercy, had they known. Later
they did learn 1t and attempted sew
eral times to kill him, but he always
escaped. Unfortunately Grover drank
heavily. and a few years after the
Beecher fight he was killed in a
row at Pond City. near Fort Wallace
an inglorious end for so great scout

TROOP SIXTY BOY
SCOUTS OF AMERICA.

Troop SOS meetings are very fine.
Since the last initiation, we have
been averaging about thirty-four
boys at each meeting, with new re-
cruits entering each meeting.
, We, however, have only one new
boy in the troop, since issuing the
challenge to Troop 80, as we expect
only bonafide members Of our troop
to participate in this meet, and no
pick-ups.
Mr.. Ford, our Assistant Scoutmas-
ter, who has entire charge of this
meet, has permitted Troop 80 to
name the events in which they will
take part. The boys of Troop so
are very confident of coming out
the winners of the meet.

Moreover, the cure of cancer of the
tongue by suggestion would be some
'h'ng new in medicine. Sugge stion is
the way the doctor explains the other
fellows cures.
Roche's business is neither diet nor
suggestion, though he studied hypno-
usm under Lebault at Nancy, and
coesn t think much of it's medical
value, but simply medicine. He believes
IN drugs. Tell him that this or that
is not case for drugs and he will re-
ply: Every case of illness is case
Tor drugs, as every case in health is
case Tor food" But he administers
them III his own way He has two
points in common with the homeopath

OF lnhnitesimals. He rejects much of
Hahnemann's theory and differs IN

Roche. Doctors are concerned with the

class of drugs called purgatives, as
trngents, diuretics, and what not.

this, he settles down to practice home
opathy or any other kind of medicine
be likes without interference.
Now, Mr.. Roche is not "homeopath"
any more than he is an "allopath." He
has his own system of medicine, and
he is kept fully occupied with his large
clientele. He has not felt inclined to
waste several years Of his life in ac-
curing irrelevant knowledge and use
less diplomas. The inconveniences of
his position are not as great as they
would be if he now devoted himself to
acute diseases. For several years he
has confined his attention to chronic
lncurables. Nobody is treated who can
say that he is deriving any benefit from
medical treatment. There are enough
doctors about and there is no need to
do what they can do.
Raphael Roche finds himself suffl j.
GENTLY occupied at the things they
can't do. This makes his cures the
more remarkable and it limits him to
eAtS why lclC III which eViQSIiCc Is OF
much value. Acute sufferers recover
or die in the course Of nature and it is
never possible to say Il medicine has
lad any effect.
Receiving sufferers at their last gasp
in this way, Mr.. Roche has the add
tional advantage that his cases are
diagnosed for him. His claim to have
cured cancer, consumption, epilepsy
and the rest of it would have little
value as evidence if we had only his
word for it that they were cases Of
these diseases. But they all come with
certificates from the most eminent ply
sicians in the British Isles. The mcdi-
cal profession can only get out of the
facts at its own expense. 1t comes to
this: if Roche can't cure, Harley
Street can't diagnose.
The case for the cures is irrefutable.

we'll as other Italian towns, for the
starving Viennese children, but the So
cialists of Turin in order not to con-
tribute to the funds gathered by the
"capitalistic committees" appointed a
Communist committee of their own to
collect contributions. They received
such large sums that they were able to
make considerable show of charity.
One of their delegates, however, be-
trayed their confidence, having been
accused of having gone to Vienna with
the children and specialized on the ex-
change to such an extent as to make
a net profit Of 100000 crowns with the
funds Of the committee He was ex-
PEELED from the association.
Another curious incident is now re-
corded. When the accounts were
wound up it was found that there still
remained $4,000 lire. Instead of en-
ploying this sum as WAS intended by
the contributors the administrators of
the fund decided to hand it over to the
local Communist newspaper.
The nonSocialist press discovered
the fact and has pointed out the origi-
nality Of Communist charity.
