months and twonty-thrco duys.
Ho was born in the neighborhood
Where ho died , and has not boon more
than twenty-five miles from homo in uli
that tlmo. Ho was a democrat of the
Old school. Tie cast his first vote foi
ThomaS Jefferson. Ho 1ms continued
to put in a ballot for every succeeding
democratic presidential candidate , hi'
eluding President Cleveland. Thougl
not a traveler , ho was a great reader ol
political news , and know the pecullai
circumstances of every campaign this
country has seen. Up to the last few
days of his life ho was in full possession
of every faculty , except his hearing
which in the last ton years had become
, qulto defective. Medicine his system
know not of till six years ago , when , tc
protract his life a few more years , the
physicians advised an occasional dose ,
His memory was a marvel , and nt
creator treat was enjoyed by those whe
know him than to hear him relate incidents

ness displayed in a morning Herald
Notes and other details wore easy foi
him , and it seemed a pleasure to him t <

political events transpired.
Ho had outlived till his children and
many of his grandchildren. Five generations -
orations look back to him as thch
ancestor , and during his last days several -
oral hundred of his kinsfolk wore scon
at his bedside. One peculiar habit ho had
was always to lake a long smoke from ti
largo pipe before retiring. Ho scouted
the idea that tobacco shortened life
and pointed to himself as a living
.refutation of the falacy. "I know not r
tluVi" said he "since I was sixteen year ;
old that I have been without my pipe. ]
fully believe that my life of nearly a
century and ti quarter has boon prolonged -
longed by it. "

Momlny of ench monthycnr in nndycnt
out , hns moro slgnlficnnco with the
Sioux Indians , than the Fourth of July

continent , nnd if ono hns n doslro to see
the American savage in all of his ignor-
nnco , innocence , and unadorned beauty
nnd primitive Indinncss , nil ho bus todc
isto , visit ono of the many ngonclosunon
ono of these occasions.
Cheyenne agency , situated upon the
west bank of the Missouri , thirty-five
inllos nbovo this city , whore 3,000 ol
Uncle.Sam's wnrds partnko nt the gov
ernment larder , is no exception to the
general rules that apply to Indian ngon-
cics , nnd ian point whore'innny ideas
can bo learned regarding Indian life as
it exists in this any nnd ngo of the
world.
The dny opens up early in the morn
ing , nnd nil is life , stir nnd bustle , u
spirit of got to the front for once Bocnu
to bo the nil absorbing thought of the
copper colored native of the plnins ,
The tall , stately and solemn chiefs ,
witlj their glossy raven locks , wound
with otter fur and ornamented with
caglo feathers , gather in groupj or
stoically and majestically stalk in front
of the agent's .olllco , waiting for the
opening of the doors of the store house ,
whllo hundreds of squaws , clad in still
dirtier garments of bright colored
calico nnd gay blankets , branded , U. S.
I. D. , squnt upon the ground nnd
sorooch like n bevy of brown patridgos ,
as they wait for the business portion
tion of the day. The young
scions of the tribe arc not idle , but with
bows , arrows and nn unerring aim arc
popping nwny at about everything that
is visible to the naked oyo. The Indian
is not n politician in the literal transla
tion of the term , but in the gathering
can bo scon objects Hint lend one to
think that they have their political
preferences , and this idea is moro forci
bly impressed upon the mind of the by
stander as ho counts the dozens of
"Blaino" and "Cleveland" tiles , that
looked nt from n standpoint of present
condition , may hnvo done radiant ser
vice in many n ward caucus.
Now nnd then n genuine Mikado fan
appears , being borne by a daughter of
the tribe , all of which ndds a kind of
hatch pot elegance to the motley as
sembly.
One of the most interesting features
of the day is when the doors of the store
house uro thrown open and the issue
begins. Going into the largo building ,
which is occupied for this purpose , you
find the agent , Dr. Charles E. McCbcs-
noy , and his chlof clerk , Douglas P.
Carlin , assisted by n number of under
clerks and interpreters , all busyporing
over large rolls of papers , containing
the name of every Indian on the agency
over the ngo of eighteen years , nnd if
the head of n family , the number of
persons that his family contains. Every
article that goes out of this ware house
is charged upon the agency books to
the Indian who receives it.and hisnatue
is chocked as ho receives his semi
monthly allowance. AH is now in read
iness for the beginning of the issue , and
the ball opens by the clerk , calling the
names from the roll , and aq an Indian
responds to the roll call , he wnllzos to
the front nnd is given a ticketof "tough
check , " upon which is written his name
and the names of the members of his
family , dependent ( V ) upon him for sup
port. This ticKet passes him into the
warehouse where the agency goods nro
stored. Hero the best of order prevails -
vails , as n number of Indian policemen
are ranged about the room , their duty
being to keep order , and allow only a
limited number to en tor at ono time.'As
soon as the authorized head of thu
family enters this warehouse , his
ticket is taken up by the clerk ,
who calls to an assistant the name of
the Indian and the number of rations
to which ho is entitled , the number of
rations corresponding with the number
of persons in his family. The rations ,
consisting of Hour , bacon , sugar , colTco ,
rice nnd" salt , are trundled out and
bundled into a hack , to bo carried nwny
by the squaw , who , under her burden ,
patiently trudges away to camp to await
the coming of her la/.y liege lord and
master , for in this respect the Indian
has his helpmeet under more thorough
subjection than his white brother , mak
ing her chop the wood , build the fires ,
bring the water and do about all the
, vork about the promises. Very fre
quently tbo Indian will attempt to mislead -
load the agent bv " claiming moro mem
bers in his "family than there
really arc , but in this ho
is usually detected and there
after is the butt of ridicule and is guyed
'
by the whole tribe. And again , an 'In
dian will have the most positive and
convincing evidence of an increase in
his family , the evidence being in the
form of n papoose , born since the hibt
ration day. When this occurs , as it
frequently does , the now arrival is
promptly listed upon the books of the
agency and , thereafter comes iu for its
regular share of rations at the govern
ment crib. This feature of the cuso has
a tendency to wtitnululo Iho Indian to
marry and go into the occupation of
raising a family , for the reason that
while the little ono cannot cat as much
Hour , bacon and beef as an adult , it can
draw the same with most surprising
regularity.
So far nothing hns happened to
mar the monotony of the day , but the
wild bloody and exciting exercises -
cisos nro to conio. Upon the banks
of a small , muddy nnd quiet creek ,
about forty rods from the agency build
ings , is located the Klaughtur-houEu and
stockade , which nro enclosed by a high
fence , built of strong plunks , inside of
which nro some sovonty-llvo head of
tall , lank , long-horned Texas steers ,
just from the range and of the wildest
typo. These animals nro to bo killed to
furnish beef for the Indlnns during the
next two weeks , or until another ration
day rolls nround. The hour for the
slnughter hns arrived nnd n general
stampede of Indians undbright blankets
Htnrt from the ngonoy buildings , in
order to get n good position upon the
top of the stockade and witness the ani
mals die. The crowd , as It moves along ,
resembles the movements of an
army in some rcspoots , although
order in the ranks is a
minus nnd unknown quantity.
The top of the stockade iu soon covered
with red faces and nakoilncbd of tiio
same hue , the laces anxiously watching
for the beginning of the bloody fun.
This bcono resembles a well regulated
Mexican bull light , only inttead of car
rying the bright , keen blades , the hereof
of the ring is armed with a Winchester
repeating rlllo. The exciting hour hns
arrived ! The bteors nro driven into
ono corner of the stockade , the report
of the ride rings out upon the nlr and R
steer bites the duit , the .ball
potiotrntod some vital part. JloporU )
now follow thick nnd fast , and M ono
rifle la emptied another is handed to
the marksman nnd the bloody work
goes on until nil of the animals nro
stretched lifeless about the nronn.
Right hero ono has a most excel
lent opportunity to witness the
flkill of the ladinn ns n butcher.
Knoh carcass is nt once surrounded by
from four to six Iiidinns.who with sharp
knives in less ttmo than it takes to
write it , hnvo the skin of thonnnnal off ,
the entrails out and everything ready
to turn the moat over to the agonl'a as
sistant , who makes the apportionment
upon the same basis as ho distributed
the articles from the warehouse. Of
the beef nothing Is allowed to waste or
spoil. Each Indian comes in for his
share of raw liver , which is not counted
on his provision account ; whllo the in
testines , both long and short , great and
small nro cut into pieces about three
feet in length , stripped of their contents
by pnsslng through the lingers , nftor
which with great gusto nnd evidently
much satisfaction they pass into the
c.ust iron stomach of Indian humixnlty.
This closes the order of exercises nnd
the wagons , ponies and dogs are packed
and the cavalcade prepares for
the inarch to the rude homos , scattered
along the stream. that How through the
great Sioux reservation , there to ro-
innin in idleness until the time arrives
for making preparations for another
trip to the ngoncy.
A visit to Cheyenne agency would bo
but half mndo if ono did not call nt the
mission school , which is situated a few
miles above the ngoncy buildings.
Here Mr. J. P. Kinnov , Jr. . nnd his
estimable wife , assisted by the Misses
Wood , Cnvaller nnd Wrolon , who are
dovotlng their timo. energies nnd the
bust dnys of their -lives to the advance
ment of the youth of the red race. The
school is under the control of the
Episcopal church , and moro directly
under the control of Bishop Ilnro.
Here from ono to two hundred voungln-
dinns , the number ranging nccoruing
to the seasons of the year , attend school ,
whore they arc taught to read and
write , the rudiments of music , to sow ,
cook and do all kinds of housework.
The boys' school is separate from the
girls' school , and bore the little rod
kids are taught lo read and write and
initiated in the art of farming. These
schools arc doing much good , both in
the way of teaching the younger gener
ation knowledge , and the older genera
tion the usefulness of the same. The
schools and the instructors arc looked
upon with much pleasure by the adult
Indians and are very popiuar.
A Charge na Is n Glinrco.
Judge Jonah Joles , recently delivered
the following charge to the jury , says
the Chicago America , in the case of
Ellin Church for stealing :
"Jury , you kin po out. and don't show
your ugly mugs hero till you Hud a ver
dict if you can't get ono of your own ,
got the ono tbo last jury used. "
The jury retired , and after an absence
of fifteen minutes , returned with n ver
dict of "Suicide in the ninth degree
and fourth verse. "
Then Judge Jonah Joles pronounced
the following sentence : "Elira Church
stund up and face the music. You are
found guilty of suicide for stealing.
Now this court sentences you.to pay a
fine of two shillings , to shave your head
with n baggnnott , in the barracks , and
if you try to cave in any of the heads of
the jury , you'll catch thunder , thnt'soll.
Your fate will bo a warning to others ,
and in conclusion may the Lord have
mercy on your soul. Sheriff , get a pint
of rod eye ; I'm awful thirsty. "

A few nlohts since , while the rain was pourlna

In ono corner of the ofllco of ono of our prom.
Inent liotcli. They hail met by chance anil wort

Durloncai ot narrow escape * In the vroatorn
wllils. The group consisted of nn old '
7H tlmt 1 set ott on Know-shoos , nccompantoa by
nn tmllnn , to a small lake in northern part of
Dakota , to futcli some flsli caugnt tha previous
nutuinn , which lay frozen in a lot ? cal > tu on tha
shore of the lake nome ton intles off. Wo took a
train of < logs nnd rnlcitlatod to ratilrn bgforo
dark. Wo had proceeded about * lx tvllet. when
the Indian who wns In advanca , pauaod nnd
appeared to see some footprints In the snow ,
otter a moment's icrutlur. ho rosa and laid.
that a bear had passed not long before , anj
could not bo far off , and ho wanted to follow it.
I told him to follow , and I would bring the do s
In his track , as the boar was going in tha direc
tion ot the lake. The Indian started nwaywltn
his mm , nnd was soon lost In the woods. For a
quarter of an hour 1 plodded on , occasionally
stopping to listen for some Round from the In
dian. At last 1 hoard the discharge of his gun ,
nnd Immediately atter heard a second illsclmrgo.
Then nil became silent , and I concluded that ho
had killed the bear , nnd that I would noon
coino up and llml him skinning It. Just than
however , 1 was sturtlod by n llorco crowl ,
nnd. seizing my rllle. I ruilied forward.
A loud roar from the bear as ho saw
mo coming cuused mo to look up , ami ai I did ,
mysmm-shoa cauKhtatsoruuthl f > , and I pitched
forward , accidentally discharging my rule ns I
fell. I sprang to my feet ngaln , iiurf , wltn my
rlllo cluhbed , 1 wnltrd for the coming of hii
bcarshtp , who had left the poor Indian almost
rtond and was rushing to moot mo. As ho reared
himself on his hind legs for a friendly ombriico ,
my eyoi fell on on the Ind Inn's nxo. that
had been dropped In the struggle. Holzliu ;
It 1 brought it down with nil my strengthen
on the grlzzloy'fl head , ho foil on mo nnd
together wo rolled down the hill. Upon ex
tricating myself I found that the blow from
the axn had killed his bearahlp , nnd that I
was uninjured , but the poor Indian was terribly
torn nnd today hobbles nround the fort cutting
drewood or uome such thtnu. "
"Ves , that wns a narrow iMcnpe , " inld ono of

nut a circumstance to n narrow escape 1 had
not long ngo. " About ono year ngo I noticed
tin * my tmsc wns dwelling nnd getting itulto
red , nnd n llttlo pimple formed on the sldo of
my nose , but didn't crow much larger , until ono
dny It broke , then n llttlo xcab formed over It :
It bothered mo nnd I ptcKod It oir , when a larger
one came , this I picked olT , nnd n larger sere
was under It : this commenced to spread , until
the whole cud oC my nose was a raw aoro. I
commenced to get
scared , then , nnd
looked nround for
Bomo doctor. I
went to several

ahead on It If there was liny hopes. Ho mauu
several applications of a chemical , aud nttet

was heated , but It hud destroyed a part of my
