McGllllcuildy's Work The School System Indian 1'ollce The Will to In- dlnti Problem. Elaine Goodalc , writing to the New York Evening Post , from Pine Uidgo Agency says : If Lower Brulo Agency possesses the elements of dramatic inter est , tlio conflict at Pine Uidgo is a fully developed "situation. " Tlio first repre sents tlio blind chaotic struggle between barbarism and civilization ; at tlio second the two forces are played off against each other , and accurately weighed and bal anced by n cool and powerful hand. Dr. McGillycuddy , Itcd Cloud's famous agent , has been called an autocrat and a , \ rant , but his is not the mere arbitrary xorciso of power. His will is practically .bsolutc ; yet he is an agent in the fullest enso of the word acting under author- ty of government , of law , of civilization , .o put down tribal authority. Ills policy s to use the progressive party as a check ipon the other. So soon as the chiefs nut leaders of the people accept civiliza- Ion , the church , the school , the plough , .hoy are enlisted upon its side , and cm- lorcd directly or Indirectly , by stVategy or force , by special privilege or delcga- ed authority , to restrain , compel , subdue. There are then at this great agency two ully organized parties on the ono side liis remarkable man , all coolness , nerve xnd oxccutivo force , with a backinrr of ifiy Indian police , well armed and disci lined , under Capt. Sword , an almost equally remarkable Indian , and a mnor- * ty of the chiefs with their bands of fol- ewers ; on the other the famous old malcontent - content , lied Cloud , obstinately fighting Tor his declining influence , and sur rounded by a little band of dissatisfied , turbulent and non-proirrcssivo Indians. The "Hed Cloud faction" is a rcfugo for every Indian with an old enmity toward Iho government or a personal grudge against the agent ; every lazy Indian who docMi't want work ; every objector to the schools , who wants to keep up Indian dances , dross and customs ; in a word , all the chronic grumblers and "coffee-cool- era , " and the whole "opposition" clo ne nt. Dr. McGillycuddy , with his superior force , organization , and discipline , and with the overwhelming weight of law and order on his side , naturally commands the situation. His ultimate triumph would be certain but for the vaciljating policy of the department , the unwisdom of committees and inspectors , who give undue countenance to Itcd Cloud , and the detraction of his enemies , which last , however , is so ridiculously overdone that it does him , perhaps , as much good as harm. The results of his six ycaas' administration are effectively indicated by a few flcurcs. In 1878 all the Indians 8.0CO of the wildest Ogallala Sioux- lived within a milo of the agency , in lodges or tcpocs , doing no work , and spending their nights in dancing and feasting , and their days in sloop. Now 1,000 log-houses have bcgon put up by the Indians themselves , with a little as sistanceand over three-fourths of the people ple are living in houses and away from the agency. In 1879 there was issued 60,000 yards of canvas for lodges , last year only 0,000. Two hundred freight wagons are driven by Indians from the railroad to tlio agency and the Black hills. Last year they earnctt $15,000 by freighting hiipplics. In August the Indians sold 0,000 worth of beef cattle of their raising , and this year produced 10,000 bushels of corn. Now that a largo proportion of Indian families are living in houses , Dr. McGillycuddy is concentrating his fight upon village lite , which tends to keep uj the social customs of barbarism , am oilers thorn every inducement to "scatter put" and take up so-called "claims'1 at isolated points. The remotest settlement is now on Corn Creek , fifty miles from the agency. The school system is probably more generally ellicicnt here than -any oilier agency in Dakota , and the policy of com pulsory attendance better enforced. Tlio doctor says that ho can got as many Any- schools as he is prepared to ask for , and ho is rapidly placing all children of school ago in school. The school houses are of logs , substantially built and com fortable , in the shape of the letter T , with teachers' rooms in the addition. The main difficulty is the chronic one of ob taining huitablo teachers in these isolated and unattractive posts. Those whom 1 saw wore men , somewhat rough in up poaranco and uncultivated of speech , bu apparently dolncr fairly vigorous and conscientious work. Tim government boarding school a the agency is the largest and most thor ouglily equipped on the reservation Thuro are now ICO children in school and it is expected after Christmas to no commodato about 100 more. The thor oughness with which wo wore invited t < inspect every detail of the menage wa aii Indication of Us completeness. The close personal superintendence of tin agent Was everywhere evident , and hi mechanical and inventive genius dls played itsulf in the ingenious arrange inent of lire escapes and portions of tin heating apparatus. In the girl's domito lies ho pointed out to us tlio faulty con struction of the "hospital bedstead" sup plied by contract to the Indian bureau and then took us across the hall run' tested with a vigorous kick the moro sub stantial make of the ones purchased In himself in the open market at a saving o" 60 cents. His knowledge and Interes extended to the baking of bread then in the ovens , and to the style of the girl'f now uniforms dark ifluo flannel am gold braid which littered the sowing room. Wo visited the school-rooms and hear soitio ready recitations in arithmetic There were boveral strangers present and wo were told that it was a common occurrence tor people to drive ever from Rushvillo , the nearest railroad station ( a distance of twenty-four miles ) , to visit the agency. The "singing" on Sunday ovunmg was very pleasant und homelike , and so it was to t > oo the procession formed to march up stairs , and to hear the pret tily chorused "Good night ! " The school owns and cultivates for its own use a farm of twnnty-livo acres sonio of whoso products wo saw and very creditable they ware and now industrial training shops have just been put up for twenty- five apprentices. Here the boys will learn all the principal trades , nmf manu facture goods for the Indian service , It is in tlds very important point of indus trial education for boys that the agency schools are almost invariably weak , and it would bo well for other ugonts to imi tate , in this respect , the enterprise of Dr. Medillycuddy. The general appearance of the agency is the best that I have seen. It is cvquKitely ne'it. Everything is methodical and ingenious , from the sj-ntem of olllco calls to the gate which "no Indian has over yet succeeded in passing on horseback , " and from tlio complete contrivance of the doctor's invention - vontion for protection against lightning the storms hero are vury severe to liio wise collection of all imUaninmhlo materials - rials in ono isolated building. A walk around the Agency with the doctor enlightens - lightens us on a great ; many points , TJio interruptions are especially instructive. Wo start from the doctor's residence , which , like almost all houses here , is one story high , but is furnished with an unu sual di-gr'o of eicjfao.ce. The doctor himself long-limbed , wcll-drcsucd , with a careless stride and an easj % almost in different manner which does not deceive us in the least as to the expression of that powerful cold gray eye Is a remarkable presence. Ono fuels somehow that in touching him one would receive an elec tric shock. Ho is a rapid , careless , often exaggerated , but always interesting talker. The police quarters , mess and guardhouse - house arc all well kept and orderly. Dr. McGillycuddy is the originator of the In- aian police system , which was inaugur ated under Secretary Schurz in 1378. Ho says that his fifty police are a great deal better than an army post and a com pany of militia to keep order on the re servation. Tlio presence of soldiers irritates tlio Indians ; they are proud of their police force. There are ten sta tioned at the agency : the others are scattered through the villages. The de tail is changed every week. "An incen diary council could not bo held in the re motest village but thai I should hear of it the next morning. " These men are faithful and vigilant , prompt to maHo arrests when necessary , to compel at tendance on the day schools , and to per form all the duties of their important positions. So far as the other Indians are concerned , theirs is often a thankless as well as an arduous uost. It Is no wonder that Dr. MoGillvcuddy advocated the re cent increase in the pay of Iddian police from $5 to $8 , and from $8 to $10 a mouth. About two years ago Secretary Teller issued an order that all the Indian police &Hould bo disarmed of their rillcs , leaving them only their revolvers with which to inspire terrror among cowboys and wild "blanket Indians" fully armed with Winchesters of the most approved pattern. Agent McGillycuddy disobeyed this extraordinary order on his own re sponsibility , nmf threatened if it wore carried out to disband his police force and resign. It is perhaps needless to add that the stacks of glittering barrels still furnish tlio guard-room , and that the Pine llldgo policemen are able to back up au thority with force , whenever it may bo accessary. At this point the doctor is addressed by a sallow , dark haired women , neatly at tired , with scarcely any distinguishing marks of race , who informs him with perfect coolness and self possession that she has como to stay , and probably de mands ration tickets for herself and a largo family. "Hero is a peculiar case , " says the doctor as she turns away. "This quarter-breed family from Iowa they have always supported themselves ana arc perfectly capable of doing so. Why should they bo foisted on the public in tills way because of a few drops of In dian blood ? " These are questions which will fettle themselves when the Indian becomes a citizen , and instead of confer ring doubtful privileges wo grant him equal ritrhts. Ono of the freighters , n tall , splendid'looking specimen of an Indian , decked out half in working clothes , half savage finery , and with the antique folds of the blanket dropping carelessly from his shoulders , plants himself direct ly in our path. His gesturc.s arc quite magnificent as ho displays his long buck skin pouches beautifully ornamented with uoads , and demands in a sort of "pidgeon Indian" the silver dollars in payment for his work. The agent , in the same jargon , directs him to report at the office in an hour. His off-hand manner and unconventional salutation , "Hello. Indianl" seem to be accepted in good by these strange beings. This one Cart himself oil" with a curious , indul gent smile , and is soon installed on the office stops , smoking immovably. Patience - tionco is an Indian virtue which almost amounts to a vice ! Wo pass through the great storerooms , with boxes of bacon and sacks of flour piled from floor to coiling , and go into the issue house for a few minutes , for this is "ration day. " The actual issue of ra tions is a picturesque and a painful sight. I never realized the degrading features of the system so keenly as during that quarter of an hour in which wo watched the sharp , eager , pitiful crowd of women , in their gorgeous untidiness of dress and uncombed black hair , jostling each other to push the cabalistic bits of. paper through the little window , and kneeling on the floor to gather up greedily the measure of sugar , coffee , beans- into an unsavory looking sack , and bear it tri umphantly away. The loud rhythmic cries of "nonpa-topa-yamni-sappc , " and soon , indicating the number of persons in a family and the corresponding num ber of pounds of flour to bo doled out the great open ledgers on whioh every ra tion is entered as soon as issued every feature of the strange orderly , busy , com monplaceyet , phenomenal scene is indel ibly stamped upon my memory. The beef is issued fortnightly "on the hoof" and the cattle are chased and shot down by the Indians as fast as they leave the corral. This is said to be a brilliant spectacle. I shall not see it. The Pine Uidgo Indians receive very large rations , three pounds gross of beef per day and other things in proportion. Dr. McGilly cuddy favors their gradual reductions and the substitution to some extent of vegetable for animal food. "Increase the ration of beans and rice 30 per cent , " ho says , "and cut off the beef ration -10 percent. " Ho also believes in refusing luxuries , such as sugar and coffee , to the persistently idle and improvident. A SCIENTIFIC BFOOH.

SCIENTIFIC TRUTH 1 Regarding the Junctions of an Important Orlilch ) 'tli Public Knows but Mttlo , yofthy Careful Con sideration. To the EdHor of ttii Sctcnltjx Amtrtcan : Will yon permit us lo make known to the public the jacts we have learned during the past 8 yrs \ , concerning disorders of thcniiman Kidneys and the organs which diseased Kidneys is so easily broken down' } You arc conducting a Scientific pnjycrand arc unprejudiced except infavoroftHnu. It is needless to say , no medical journal of "Code" standing would admit these facts , for very obvious reasons. II. II , WAttXERA 00. , Proprietors o/T ] < mier's Safe Cure. " That wo may emphasize ami clearly ex plain the relation the kitinovs sustain to the general health , and how much is de pendent upon them , wo propose , meta phorically speaking , to take ono from the human body , place hi the wash-bowl before us , and examine it for the public benefit. You will imagine that wo have before is a body shaped like a bean , smooth and glistening , about four inches in length , two in width and ono in thickness. It ordinarily weighs in the adult male , about live ounces , but is somewhat light er in the foinalo. A small organ ? you say. But understand , the body of the uv- erase size man contains about ten quarts of blood , of which every drop passes through these filters or seiucrs , as they may bo called , many times a day , as often as through the heart , making a complete revolution in three minutes. From the blood they separate the wa < * to material , working away steadily , night and day , sleeping or waking , tireless as the heart itself , and fully of as much vital importance ; removing impurities from r > 5 gallons of blood each hour , or about 41) ) barrels cacli day , or 0,125 hogsheads a year ! What a wonder that tlio kidneys can last any length of time under this prodigious strain , treated and neglected as they are I \Vo slice this delicate organ open lengthwise with our knife , and will roughly describe its interior. Wo find it to bo of a reddish-brown col or , soft and easily torn ; tilled with hun dreds of little tubes , short and thread like. starting from the arteries , ending in a little tuft about midway from the out side opening into a cavity of considerable size , which is called the pelvis or , roughly sneaking , : i sac , which is for the purpose of holding the water to further undergo purification before it passes down from hero into the m'otcrs , and so on to the outside of the body. Those little tubes are the liltcrs which do their work auto matically , anil right hero is where the dis ease of Iho kidneys first bcains. Doing the vast amount of work which they are ojligijd to , from the slightest irregularity in our habits , from cold , Irom high liting , from stimulants or a thousand and ono other causes which oc cur every day , they become somewhat weakened in their nerve force. What is the result ? Congestion or stop page of the 6uiTcnt of blood in the small olood vessels surrounding them , which become blpgkcd ; > these delicate mem branes are iuntaed ; inflammation is set up , then pusti is formed , which collects in the pelvis or sae ; the tubes are at first partially , nnij'sdtm arc totally , unable to dp their work. The pelvis sac goes on distending with this corruption , pressing upon the blopiLycssles. All this time , re- niombor , thobl6od } , which is entering the ' kidneys to bo filtd'rod , is passing through thin terrible , disgusting pus , for it cannot take any other route ! Stop and think of it for a moment. Do you realize the importance , nay , the vital necessity of having the kidneys in order ? Can you expect when they are diseased or obstructed , no matter how little , that you can ha.vo nitre blood and escape dis- ease' } It would bo just as reasonable to expect , if a pest-houso were set across Broadway and countless thous ands were compelled to go through its pestilential doors , and es cape from contagion and disease , as for ono to expect the blood to escape pollu tion when constantly running through a disosead kiduoy. Now , what is the result ? Why , that the blood takes up and deposits this poi son , as it sweeps along , into every organ , into every inch of muscle , tissue , Jlesh and bone from your head to your feet. And whenever , from hcriditary influence or otherwise , some part of the hotly is weaker than another , a countless train of diseases is established , such as consump tion , hi weak lungs , dyspepsia , whether a deliicate stomach , nervousness , insan- ity , paralysis or lioart disease in those ww have weak nerves. The heart must soon feel the effects of the poison , as it rcgnireijnire blood to keep it in right action. it increases its stroke in number and force to conipemsalo for the natural btimnlus wanting , in its en deavor to crowd the impure blood through this obstruction , causing pain , palpitation , or an out-of-hreath feeling. Unnatural as this forced labor is , the heart must soon falter , becoming weaker and weaker until ono day it suddenly stops , and death from apparent "heart disease" is the verdict ! But the medical profession , learned and dignified , call those diseases by high- sounding names , treat them alone , and patients die , for the- arteries are carrying slow death to the aMcclcd partt constantly adding tuol brought from those suppur ating , pus-ladpn kidneys , which hero in our wash-howl are very putrefaction it self , and which should have ooen cured first. first.But But this is not all the kidneys have to do ; for you must remember that each adult takes about sovnn pounds of nour ishment every twenty-four hours to sup ply the waste of the body which is con stantly going on , u waste equal to the quantity taken. This , too , the kidneys have to soparjitq from the blood with all other decomposing matter. But you say , "my kidneys arc all right I have no pajn in the back. " Mistaken muni Poopfe ijm of kidney disoa u of so bad a character that the organs are rotten - ton , and yot'they ' have never there had a pain nor an < [ ch $ ! Why ? Hpcanso the disease begins , as wo have shoyn'in } ' the interior of the kid ney , where r/ierbffre few nerves of feeling to convoy the pensation of pain , Why tills is so wonay never know. When you , consider their great work , the dolK'aey of their structure , the ease with which they are dcranircd , can you wonder at tlilfi/I-licalth / of our men and women ? JIiMUli and long life cannot bo expected when so vital an organ is un paired. NaTwandor some writers say wo are degenerating. Don't you see the great , the extreme importance of keep ing this machinery in working order Could the finest engine do evt-n a frac- tjonal part of this work without atten tion from the engineer ? Don't you see how ( langcrouii this hidden disease is ? It is lurking about us constantly , without giving any indication of its presence. The iiicM skillful phj'sit'hins cannot do- toet it tit limns , for the kidneys themselves cannot be examined by any means which wo have at our command. Kvcn an analysis of the water , chemically and microscopically , rovoaU nothing definite in many cases , oven when the kidneys are lairly broken down. Then look out for them , as dieasc , no matter whore situated , to 1)3 ) per cent , as shown by after-death examinations , lias its origin in the broking down of these puri'bng. tubes in tie | inteiior of the kid ney. . As yon value health , : is you .desire Ion ? ? Hie frco from sickness anil suffering , give those organ * some attention.

Warner's Safe Cure , ns it becomes year after year better known for its wonderful cures and its power over the kidneys , has done and is doing moro to incrcaso the average duration of life than all the phys icians and medicines known. Warner's Safe Cure is a true spcoilic , mild but cer tain , harmless but cncigctio nnd agreeable - able to the taste. Tnko it when sick as n cure , and never let a month go by if you need it , w ithout taking a few bottles as .1 preventive , that the kidneys may bo kept in proper order , the blood puro.'that health mid long life mav bo your blessing. II. \NAUXEll & CO. FINED FOR'FLIRTING. Courtship nfn Gnllnnt 1'ollco Ofllccr An Amusing Trial. St. Louis Globe-Democrat : For about n month back every meeting of the police board lias been enlivened by an invo ti- gatlon of omo club swinging Konico or Lothario These cases all come from Iho outlying district , whcro the gallant of ficers , having little to do but watch the vacant lots and report nuisances , are forced to turn their fancies to thoughts of lovo.

The Inst man charged with having givou way to liis feelings is Olllcor Ketchum , of the Second district , and as ho appeared before - fore the board in the role of defendant yesterday afternoon it appeared that ho was really handsome enough to break up the hearts of tlio entire population on his beat. Miss Hachacl llo'ttig appeared against Ketuhum to substantiate charges slic preferred against him , and as she sat down before the board her blushus wore rollcctcd In the face of the honorable gentleman to whom she told the ale. She said that Ketchum had been n the habit of coming to see her at her louse and meeting her on tho"'beat and exchanging with her the sweut nothings .hat prove so distasteful somethings vlien they como out in evidence. Sao charged him with having called on her and treated her in a manner calculated o deceive her , und that she might have jeon fatally deceived had the news not jpcn borne lo her that Ketchum was n married man. Ho was in the habit of jailing her "my love , " "mvdovo , " "my loney , " "my darling , " and "my sweet1 nnd drew to her delightful pictures of a : iomo in which ho and she should bo the principal figure t. "Never mind , dear , next summer we'll have a little homo of our own , " ho said to her. She told her btory very straightforwardly and then -ho ollicer examined , her. The cxuini- lation was long , ami excruciatingly [ tin 113' . Tin : "DAIIUNO novn. " "Did you over threaten. " ho asked , looking into her eyes , "to shoot yourself ou my account ? " "Indeed I didn't. I wouldn't shoot myself for any policeman. " 'Did yon threaten or say you'd like to kill me and then kill voursolfV" "I did. " "I called you 'Dove' and all that , did I ? " "Yes , you did. You used to come to : ho house and ask mamma if your dove was m. " "Did you over kiss me ? " "Yesldid and you kissed me. loo. " "Didn't you como up to mo and pat mo ou the cheek , and bay 'Ain'tyou sweet ? ' " "Yes , I did , and didn't know you were married. " The otticor and the girl had met under strange circumstances. She was Mfs- poctcu of stealing a ring irom a Mrs. Ilickman , and ho was sent to investigate the matter by Sergeant McNamee. lie liad caltod there seven or eight times. "I thought it was ray duty , " he said , "to call there , because I thought 1 might see the I'ing on her hands or tlio hands of some one else in the house , lie never got the ring , but ho came pretty near making Miss Rachel believe that ho was going to give her a ring. These tactics of recov ering stolen property will at once com mend themselves to every policeman from ono end of the country to tlio other. There's something suggestive of conli- donco and confession about them. When the girl had asked him if he was married he had placed his hand over his star , looked in her eves , and begged the question : "Do I look like iv married man ? " She didn't know exactly how a married man looked. Ho said the same thing in answer to a question by another young lady in the neighborhood. Thai young lady , however , frankly admitted to the board that she didn't care whether ho was married at that tirno any moro than aho did now. A brother ollicor was called in and ex amined by the board , after which he wa put through the following by Ollicer Ketchum : PltKTTV Olltl.S OX Tlin 11EAT , "Did you ever hear inn say I was not a married man ? " "I never heard you say that. " "What did you hoar ? " "Well , ono night I came to relieve you and you told mo that I mustn't give i away that you are a married man. ' "Didn't you ask mo that night , 'Aro there any pretty girls on the bout , ? ' " "lilid. i often do that. " "Didn't I say. 'Don't give it away ? ' " "I understood you to moan that yoi were not a married man. " ' Did I look like I was joking ? " "No ; you looked serious. " Other evidence was to the ufl'eet that ho had called upon other ladies in the neighborhood , but that the elderly ladles in the neighborhood thought all along that ho was a married man , but they worn never interested enough in this to ask him. It was shown that liachul used to know what time her star of the evening would burst from the gloom , and she would walk by his side upon his lonely beat , helping nim generalv ! in tlio per formance ot police duty. Tlio ciiio mid como to the ears of dipt , lleroulus by means of a rumor that a girl was going to commit suieido for an ollicor. It was easy to lind out who that ollicor was and thooaso was brought before Iho board. The trial of the ease occupied about three hours and was as funny a proceeding as the very funny board over went through. The ollicor was lined $ 'i5 and severely reprimanded by Mr. Blair , and when this had been done it was suggested that for tlio hi'iiullt of imnressiomiljlo females the board got up a tab for the married men labeled "Dangerous , " or something of thu kind.

She was from ono of the western cities.
