ladlaai ITU RMa la Flna Carriage.
The Sioui nation is rapidly beoominj
nation of aristocrat. During tho piwt
lew weeks runny fine new carriages hav
crossed over here to the Sioux reserva
tion, and all of them belonged to mem
her of the Sioux nation who came here
at different times and purchiwed thein,
paying for the same in good hard cmIl
Curriage dealers are now, In conse
quence, doing a mshing buHinew with
the Indians, and the demand for the
finest and most expentiive carriages is in
creasing, all the prominent and wealth
ier Indians appearing determined not to
be outdone by any other member or
members of the tribe.
The purchase by one Indian' of an ele
gant carriage is sure to arouse the jeal
ousy of some other Indian, and then
some rustling is done. Cattle or any
thing that will net them the money
needed is hurried to the nearest market
and disposed of, and with the money
thus obtained the fortunate Indian will
anrry to a wagon and carriage dealer
and purchase the finest carriage that can
be procured.
The Lower Brnle and Crow Creek In
dians are already the possessors of many
ine turnouts, and should they keep on
as they are now doing every Indian will
aoon travel about in a carriage of his
wn. If the carriage manufacturer!
would paint their carriages a gaudier
color it would result in largely increased
ales, on the frontier at least, but at the
rate the Indians are purchasing it it
quite probable that they are satisfied
with the plain colors. South Dakota

To Have Maw Eyellda.
Harvey Chaffee, of East Valley, a well
known oil contractor, who waa badly
burned by a natural gas explosion on the
7th of May, is in the city for the purpose
ttt hiving the skin grafting process tried
en him. Mr. Chaffee waa very severely
roasted. The skin was burned off his
face and neck, and ten holes were left in
his head. The most serious scorching
was that upon the eyelids. They were
completely burned off both eyes, and in
their stead at present is the raw, in
flamed and swollen flesh. The sight ti
most repulsive, but Mr. Chaffee bears
his misfortune with great fortitude.
When asked if his injuries were pain
ful, he replied: "Yes, sir, they hurt me
right smart at times, but it takes a great
deal to make me grunt. I can staud a
heap. You ought to have seen me when
I was burned. My ears were as big ns
your fist ami my head as big as a half
bushel measure. I was a regular sight.
You can auk my wife there," and he re
ferred the retiorter to a pleasaut woman
who sat near.
The work of putting nevr eyelids npon
the unfortunate contractor is to be done
by Dr. F. D. E.lsall, who said that he
would cut tho material for Mr. Chaffee's
yelida out of tho patient's arm. Except
for his burns Mr. Chuffee waa in a
healthy condition, and his own cuticle
would perhaps knit more rapidly than
that from another person. The new
eyelids will bo bereft of eyelashes, but
utility and a cure is what is sought after
rather than beauty in this case. Pitta

Twenty Pound Snlmmi for a Cent A pier.
The present wonderful run of salmon
has so chitted the market that for some
time these silver sided beauties have
been selling at five cents apiece, but the
price took a tumble yesterday and sev
eral fisherman sold a boat load of fine
salmon, weighing about twenty pounds
each, at the pitiful price of one cent
apiece. One cent for a twenty pound
silver salmon, the finest quality of that
excellent fish, is the lowest price perhaps
that a food fish ever sold for in this or
any other country, but salmon are so
plentiful that tieople do not know what
to do with them.
It is estimated that enough fish conld
betaken there in ono day to fill 1,000
barrels. Fishermen say they can make
big money by selling salmon at a cent
apiece to the canneries if they will only
buy all they can catch. One man caught
fourteen with a gill hook attached to a
hoe handle yesterday, and another man
claims to have found them in such num
bers in shallow water in tho Dnngeness
that he threw them out with a pitchfork
and soon got fish enough to last for a
month. Fort Townseud Leader.
tihark In Long Inland Hound.
An unusual number of largo sharks
ras reported during Keptemlier in Long
Island and Fisher's Island sounds. To
these the name of man eater is generally
applied. As a matter of fact, however,
the truo man eating shark (Curcbirodou
carcharias) is rarely seen ou ovt coattt.
This species grows to a length of twenty-five
feet and to the weight of one ton,
being surpassed in size only by the bask
ing shark. It is a relative of the enor
mous shark whose teeth occur fossil in
the phosphate beds of South Carolina.
Any shark measuring nine or ten feet in
length is liable to be called a man eater,
and not without warrant, for all of them
will attack man with slight provocation
or when suffering from hunger. Forest

Gutt,i percha is the gum of tho pcrclm
tree, which grows in the Malayan is
lands and that locality. The price ef
this articlo has more than doubled with

fulness of the natives in collecting the
gum by telling the trees and the in
creased demand for it in insulating elec

"An American Boy," will be seen
for the first time before a Platta
mouth audience at Waterman's
opera house Thursday evening,
Oct. 29. The company has just
closed a successful engagement at
the People'stheatre, Chicago, and

new departure to the stage, and is
void of all sensation, the character
of the boy part in the play being
manly and bold.'
Music, singing, dancing and re
fined specialties are a sparkling
feature of the performance, and the
American Boy Trio, the Union
Quartette and the many new
feutures make the new comedy a
brilliant success.
During the play the following
specialties will be introduced:
Act I. Songutid chorus, "Only a
Boy," by Willie McPermott. Act
II. Dance Imagination, Frnnkie
St. John; "The Tramp," Geo. K.

Greeley Itufore the Camera.
Horace Greeley dreaded the earner ,
more than any man I ever saw. He w,.
brought to my studio by Whitelaw Rew
and Stun Sinclair, famous in his day as
ono of the great workers on The Tribune.
The great editor had just been nomi
nated for the presidency of the United
States. He came into my stndio with an
armful of papers, threw himself care
lessly in the chair, adjusted his glasses,
turned to the editorial page of Tho Trib
une, began reading one of his own ar
ticles, and, without raising his eyes to
me, saiu, "r ire awayr He had a great
armful of papers, which he threw on the
floor at his feet When 1 was ready to
tane me picture 1 posed him properly
and made a very good impression. I
took him in several positions, and 1 no
tired that every time there was a mo
ment s delay with the camera he picked
up his papers and began reading with
avidity.
At the same time I took a group por
trait of Greeley, with Whitelaw Iteid on
one side and Sinclair on the other. I
doubt if any of those pictures are in ex
istence. Unt the photograph then made
at the first sitting of Greeley alone is the
one generally accepted as the best like
ness. I have in my possession a letter
from him acknowledging the receipt of
the pictures at leat I suppose that is
what it does, for it has taxed the ability
of experts iu chirography to decipher it
I regard it, however, as a pleasant mo
menta of the great journalist and states
man. A. Dogardus in Ladies' Home
