HER BRAVE TO WED
a-
Plenty HawK Was Once Suitor
of Chicago Girl.
Miss Madeline Sullivan Hears the
News From Wyoming With Much
Indifference Love for Red
Man Is Dead.
Chicago. Talking to a reporter re
cently in tho reception room of her
mother'B apartments at 820 Crescent
place, Miss Madeline Sullivan poured
tea and recalled tho days when In
sheepskin chaps and sombrero she las
soed statuary in her mother's home
nnd sank steel spurs in the mahogany
music bench.
Tho occasion was the announcement
by wiro from Sheridan, Wyo., that
Plenty Hawk, richest of all tho Crow
Indians, had taken out a license to
Miss Madeline Sullivan,
marry a former squaw of Medicine
Hat. Not two years ago It took tho
combined efforts of Miss Sullivan's
mother and tho federal authorities to
prevent the young girl from marrying
tho Indian. Following her wild prank
she roped papier macho steers and
perforated glass balls with a seven
shooter on tho vaudeville stgo for
tho edification of thoso that respond
ed to the wild west posters on tho
billborrds.
"I have Just returned from Palm
Beach," said Miss Sullivan, wearily.
"Really, I had forgotten all about that
childish escapade. So Plenty Hawk
Is to bo married. I am glad to hear
It. He was a good Indian, but, really,
I can't believe that ho is to bo mar
ried because I know that ho has ono
legal wife now. You see, it would bo i
nuio imposblble. I am sorry if It
prtvonts him from marrying some one
of h!s choice No, I never heard of
thi" Medicine Hat woman I don't
know whether sho Is a white woman
or nn Indian.
Miss Sullivan read with renewed in
terest the dUpatch from Sheridan,
which carried the information that
Plenty Hawk had taken out a licenso
to marry Mrs. Medicine Top, but that
one Catholic priest had refused to
marry the couple becauao they lacked
permission from tho priest on the reB
orvatlon Plenty Hawk's brido to bo
was decked out in a costume
valued at $5,500, which was said to
contain several thousand elk teeth
.woven In cloth.
"It was all a grand prank," she said.
"Mother, you should havo spanked ma

Poor old Plenty Hawk! I thought his
hills and forests, his horse sand blan
kets, were all there was in tho world
onco. I liked to sit a horse and gallop
away make tho dust fly and shoot
in the air. Of course, I know bettor
now. No, I won't comparo tho con
veniences of a modern Hat with those
of a squaw's tepee. That isn't neces
sary. I'm glad Plenty Hawk Is going
to marry If ho can. Ho was quaint.
I wish him worlds of happiness, back
in his hills."
"If tho report is true, I'm tickled to
death," Bald Mrs. Sullivan.

Life Insurance Applicant Has Six
Gunshot Wounds Once Noted as

Now York. A modest littlo man
walked into tho ofllco of an examin

pany and in a low, timid volco told
tho doctor he was ready.
The doctor is also small of stature,
but wears largo spectacles, and stern
ly looked at his caller as if to Bay:
"Now, don't dodgo any of these ques
tions, young fellow. Como right out
with tho truth." Ho did.
"Have you any wounds on your
body?" asked tho M. D.
"Yes, sir; I havo six."
"What kind of wounds?"
"Gunshot wounds, sir," replied the
timid man, and the doctor's eyes grow
larger. Sure enough, there they were.
"Ever have any stomach trouble?"
asked tho M. D.
"Only onco. I think I'm over that
now."
"Where did you contract that?"
"In Bolitnry confinement, sir. after
being shot."
"Would you mind telling mo your
business?" asked tho surprised doc

strange."
"I'm a lawyer in Oklahoma City,"
was tho reply. "And havo been such

- DEER HERD IN
Hunter Is Supposed to Have Turned
Dogs In Inclosure and Started
Animals on Wild Career.
St. Louis. Boon's Lick and other
licks In central and eastern Missouri
have a fair chance again to como into
their own, unless fourteen deer which
escaped from tho William Moyer farm,
near Hollow, in tho western part of
St. Louis county, are recaptured. A
herd of twenty-flvo denizens of the
woods belonging to John Cafferata of
Delmar boulevard was stampeded by
dogs and all but eleven scaled tho
fence.
Cafferata and three of his friends
havo left for Gray Summit, Franklin
county, where they hope to form some
scheme of capturing somo of tho herd
and returning them to their fold.
Thoy havo been heard from In many
sections, but the owner never hopes
to regain all of them.
Ho recelvod a message from Japan.
Mo., twelve miles from Cuba, on tho
Littlo Bourbeuse river, that two of
his pets had been soen there. Forty
miles out In Franklin county more of
tho deer were seen, and at Labadle
and on toward Union, Mo., farmers
have sighted somo of tho flock. Caf
ferata does not know what method he
can employ in capturing them alive if
he can find them.
Tho deer wore shipped from a
friend In Maryland recently and sent
to tho Meyer farm for safekeeping,
after the fences had been built unus
ually high. Somo former deer hunter,
presumably, turned his hounds into
the Inclosure in order again to feel
the thrills of a real buck chase.

ed the doctor, who was beginning to
wonder nt his patient's cxtremo tim
idity. "How did you got those
wounds?"
"Robbing trains, sir. Is that all you
wish?" And he bowed himself out,
leaving tho M. D. with mouth ngapo.
Tho doctor then looked at tho nnmo
on tho application, and it was "Al
Jennings." f
Jennings at one time was ono of
tho most daring train hold-up men in
tho world, and, upon being pardoned,
became one of tho best lawyers in
Oklahoma.

A FEW FISH DISHES.
Fish is second to meat In food valuo, j
is less expensive in most places, and
now that It la canned In such satisfac
tory ways, can bo placed on tho tfiblo
at almost any Benson, latitude or long
itude Where tho fresh llsh Is obtain
able, tho dishes ono may prepare am
many more, of course. Fish caught
uml cooked tho same dny aro not to
bo mentioned In thu snmo class as
caniud llsh. But for the loss favored
the canned vnrlcty io a great boon.
Salmon, With Peas. Mnko n loaf
of salmon, steam It In a lung bread
pan, turn out on a platter and garnish
with a sauce of green poas. If the
canned ones nru used, thlckon the
fenuco with a fow of the peas put
lliiough a sieve, to mako a green
sauce.
Another form of tho somo dish Is
prepared thus: Flake a can of sal
mon (there should bo three-fourths of
a cup of tho salmon), season with Halt,
cayonno nnd two tenspoonfuls of lem
on Julco; add a cup of thick white
sauce and shnpo In thu form of coues.
Dip In egg and crumbs and fry In deep
fat Arrnnge around cream peas, gar
nish with parsley.
White, sauce has been given bo many
tlnieB that It hardly seems necessary
to ropeat, yet thero aro many who do
not make It In tho cn&lost and best
way. Melt tho buttor (two tablo
spoonfuls for an ordinary sauce), and
when it is bubbling hot add two ta
blcspoonfuls of flour, nnd when well
mixed, a cup of milk nnd a hnlf tea
spoonful of suit. Tho flavor of a
whlto sauco made this way Is differ
ent from ono mado by heating tho
milk and adding tho flour mixed with
a littlo cold milk nnd tho butter Just
beforo taking off.
Escatlopecf Fish. Take any cold
cooked llsh, nrrnngo In layers In a ba
king dish with whlto sauco, and llulsh
tho top with buttered crumbs. Bake
until tho crumbs aro a goldon brown.
If one has a little salmon loft, com
blno it with chopped cabbage, a
pickle cut line and a bit of salad dress
