THE TERRITORY OF THE SIOUX

ItcnnrtH in
ttio Country ,
A lny of I'Jcnsuro.
The excursionists nroso early at Huffalo
Gap , on their way to Hot Snnnqs , bccnuso
Jim StcphcnRon. the mnitor of transporta
tion , \vii up with the lark. Ills liorsos were
hitched to tliq conches and the Inttcr wcro
filled In an Instant although , these who had
Bccurud Benin on the top of tlio vehicles wcro
greatly on vied by these underneath. Two
moro local coaches were added to the list
and , when all the party had taken their
cats , the whips cracked and the Impatient
horses started off ut a lively Kiilt through
the silent strocls of the city. The town hatl
not yut uwoko from its slumbers. Wo wcro
nn hour ahead of tlmo , thouph II. K. Thomp-
BOH , M. Alexander , A. T. Vnndcrvoort , of
the committee on rccectlon were on hand to
tncot us ,
The monotony of the rldo was destroyed
when wo hud passed the limits of the city.
Thcro wcro no painful stretches of level
pralrlo extending to the horizon. The view
always terminated In n rmijro of bluffs , the
summits merged In tha clouds In a
BTBRP , I'llKCIHTOUfi WALL
of stone which lined the roadway. Hut the
'RP.IRH was crccn , the ground suomud most
fertile , mid whcro wheat wus sown , as it was
in many places , it seemed well advanced mid
full of promise.
The drlvo led over fords , by running
streams , up sleepy hills and down again Into
valleys in which the early nun rendured
almost supcrlluous the wraps which were ap
preciated on the hill tops. There wan no
lack of variety in the drive , because almost
every turn on the road revealed now beau
ties. There wcro castellated buttcs , parti
colored walls In rigid and VtiwiiiR lines of
nature's pencilling , displaying all the wealth
nnd variely of color which , wo are told , dis
tinguish Homoof the festivals abroad , whcro
thu'pcoplo hang from their windows and
balconies the heirloom tapestries which they
liavo treasured for generations. At almost
rcculnr intervals wo noticed the claim house
of the Bottler , only nfmv _ of which , however ,
were occupiedshowing that the claimant was
taking possession of the land without actually
establishing his abiding place upon It. All
the country , however , was taken up nnd our
party congratulated the sottlcrs whom they
considered to have selected souioof the tlucst
land In the country.
The scene , the air , the drlvo was most
fascinating. It had
1T3 EFFECT Ul'ON P.VnilYIlODT.
The man who had not cracked n Joke In a
generation scattered jokes around with
prodigal lavlshr.ess : Tim man who had sat
In nothing but n cushioned iirm-chalr for
years , revelled in the board roof of the
coach and lot his neither limbs dangle over
the side with the unconcern of n child. The
most prosaio gentleman in the party was
happy only when ho could toot the horn in
BO mo unsuspecting car or use it to attract
the attention of some -demure bovine which
had just como into view. The party had
been metamorphosed into children who
needed only the space to Induluo in the old-
time ulcofiurcs of "tag" and "blind-man's
buff. "
At length the Hotel Minnoknhta , kept by
F. D. Glilcsplo , Is reached , the distance from
Buffalo Gup having been tnado iu about an
hour nnd a half.
It is n long , two-story frame structure ,
ivith balconies all arounil. with a baeulng-
rock several hundred foot In height.
The party strolls about the beautiful
grounds , their fancy being taken with a
murmuring stream as clear as n Colorado
atmosphere on a sunny day so clear , in
fact , that some of the sceptics pronounce it
to bo something clso thau water. The stream
rushes by with u tireless energy , heedless of
the remarks made about It , and wo follow
' It until wo reach an overhanging rock , where
n gentleman treats everybody to a glass of
dn7zllng liquid which gushes from a cavern
In the hillside.
TIII3 L1QUOU 18 TASTELESS ,
though its olTect seems to bo exhilarating. It
Is not intoxicating , but the effect produced
it Is diiHcult to describe. Wo are told
that Its temperature is ninety degrees
but wo are not nblo to distinguish it.
JVltn sharpened appetites wo go to break
fast , u meal prepared ami served iu Mlllard
stylo. There is not a demure person around
the board. The air of freedom and vivacity
becomes contagious , and the other guests ,
who have como hero to Imtho in and quad
the waters for remedial effects , enter heart
ily Into the spirit of the occasion. Mr. Babcock -
cock , of the Northwestern , loads in the
hilarity , and an excellent leader ho Is when
ho makes up his mind to it.
Thou to the baths. These are built on the
Bite of the old Indian bathing place , though
much moro extensive now than they were
When Lonu Wolf and Timid Dove poured
libations upon their dusky forms. Hero is
still the Indian bath-tub howu out of the
solid rock , through the bottom of which , llko
a blessing from fairy land , gushes this
, stream of purity and almost of life. It is
piped nnd leu to rooms provided with every
accommodation , t > omo of the baths being
huge rocks hewn to the conventional form.
The place Is heated by steam for the accom
modation of Invalids. But , as wo have none
such among our pleasure seekers , the steam
is shut oil , yet the temperature of the place
makes us perspire. Wo now receive the
warmth of the water. No soap Is used , a fact
Which is not readily appreciated by our
party. Wo gradually ncituowledgo it , how
ever , as ono after the other emerges from
his room , admitting that ho feels fresher ,
happier , moro bouyant and younger than ho
over did coming from a bath in his lifo.
The experience of our party , however. Is
not the hluhcBt tribute which may bo paid
' C3 T1I'S WOJflJUIIPUL WJLTEB
There uro hero volumes llllcd with the testi
mony of "Incurables" who have found life
and vigor In this priceless stream , The
category of ills banished ranges from these
that are nameless , and comprehending some
that are unpronounceable to that great
phiguo of plagues , rheumatism , In all Its
forms. People have been cured hero who
loft Arkansas In despair. Besides , the stir-
roujidlitga nro most cheerful , the place is
nearer homo and the expanse is only nominal
in a comparative sense.
Another attraction Is the charm of Indian
association , tradition und legend which still
lingers about the place. It mantles the
mountain tops , pervades the plains and
sports In the merry waters of the stream.
Turn where you may , you see in Imagina
tion the contending tribes , their tepee vil-
ages , their wooing young loves , or their
last resting places.
On Itattlo mountain you nro told of the
la t struggle made for the possession of the
JIlIls. In which the Sioux wcro victorious ,

the Sioux on a plateau beneath. Hut they
had no mean * of drawing off tlio enemy by
whom they wore Invested ; neither had they
moans of egress or moans of supplying
tluunsclvcb with the necessaries of lifo. The
battle was , therefore , utmost bloodless , tin
til starvation having laid many n wnrrlor
low , the Sioux rushed upon their victims and
despatched them in llomllsh triumph. But
ono Cnoycniifl9iwas spared. It was a
papoose not moro than seven days old. The
light was still in the little berry

Is without a characteristic of this kind. The
tale as It It told by Judge Dudley who was
formerly n resident of Omnhn but who Is now

Moiictara was a Cheyenne maiden , It
In presumed of comely form and
figure. The legendaries , at all
events , Invested her with moro of the charms
that wo nro wont. In these degenerate days ,
to Impart to the dusky nbarlglucs. She was
very young nnd straying through the woods ,
came upon Willintahpa , a youthful hero of
the deadly Sioux.

did not dominate ttio ncart of the young
man , at least as regards hit fair foe , be
cause , "so the old men toll , " ' the pair re
turned to the tepees of the Sioux. Monotnrn
was witunut father or mother , nnd the
attention shown her by the young bravo
alienated her tribal love and induced her to
accept nn abode In the midst of the heredi
tary enemies of her people. The consequence
quence of this domestication was the plightIng -
Ing In love of Mcnctara nnd Willintahpa.
The lather of the bravo , an implacable nnd
.rcachcrous enemy of the Cheycnncs , dis
countenanced the mating , though the mother
favored It with nil ttio tenderness of n
mother's heart.
The night before the nuptials arrived. The
light of iifcohlo moon Illumined the village ,
Thoyoung man had Just paid his last visit to
Ills afllanccd and started to his tepee to wait Im
patiently for the dawning. Before Mcnetarn
: ould enter her nbodo she was seized by an
liorculonn form which had been hidden In
Lho shadows , gagged and berne with licet
feet through the tcpco lines , through the
surrounding forest out to the ledge , which
io this day stands outlined against the sky
Hue a pedestal In a Grecian temple. Against
Lho determined savage the olTorts of the
weakly maiden were unavailing. The shelv
ing was reaohoil and the abductor for a mo
ment stood up erect. Ho then raised his
Imrdon high above his head and the next in
stant the maiden
SHOT ritou ins OUASP
out over the river and down Into the current
which was rapidly rolling below.
The restraint having been removed
from tbo woman's mouth , a long ,
ilorclng scream echoed and re-echoed
throughout the hills , and the next instant the
young savage , Wllllntnhpa , was upon the
tmwo whom ho cleft from crown to shoulder
blade. The father had died by the son's '
liand , as the prospective bndo had died by
Lhoso of the murdered savage , who could not
brook his blood intermingling with that of
his foe.
With the clrl's name upon his lips , Wll-
[ Intahpa leaped from the rocks to the abyss
bcne.ith where all was ruin. Whether the
spirits of these lovers over afterwards mot
k problematical , but their names are Indissolubly -
solubly ussoeiatud m various ways with this
oft told legend.
Uolow the town of Hot Springs , which is
soon to enjoy the benefits of a $45,000 sol
diers' home , and n $20,000 Methodist college ,
nro the Minnokahta falls. These nro several
hundred feet in length , nnd of the most beau
tiful description. The water Hews over a bed
of sold rock worn into channels and pools
of countless shapes , directions and sizes.
Some of the pools sconi like entrances to
Avernus. In the channels worn by the fric
tion of ages the water rushes llko n cord of
emerald of various sizes , while in some of
tlio shallows the bed-rock bus the mottled
and velvety richness of n tiger mat. A great
part of the river-bed is dry , but when cov
ered with rapidly rushing water , as it is in
springtime , the effect must bo inspiring.
Our people disposed themselves upon the
roclcs and were photographed. The artist ,
Charles Csusar , asked what name should be
given to the place , and W. A. L. Gibbon sug
gested ' 'Brady's Leap. " This was because
of u step which the latter had made upon n
surface of brown nlimo , which was mistaken
for rocic , and which allowed the gentlomau to
disappear a number of feet.
Wo again took our stages , nnd as the
evening sun was disappearing in the west ,
ranched Buffalo Gap , where a warm recep
tion awaited us. E. A. O'BitiE.v.
THE COUNT * COJ13I1SSIONEKS.
An Extra Session of the Honrtl Hold
Yesterday Afternoon.
An extra session of the board of county
commissioners was hold , yesterday after
noon , at which County Attorney Mahoney
stated in a communication that u young
woman by the nauio of Nettie Evord , had in
formed him that she had been inducoJ to
come to this city under the promise of a
situation in a restaurant. She came from
Chicago. She was mot at the transfer in
Council Bluffs by a brother of the
woman who enticed her to como to
Omaha. She pretended to tbo attorney that
she was under the impression that she
would secure employment , but Instead was
taken to "French Em's" house of ill-fame.
She remained in the place two weeks , and
was afterwards arrested. Then she wont to
the "Open Door , " a place for fallen woman.
She claimed that she was never a voluntary
inmate of the disreputable house , and as she
was now without means she wanted trans
portation to Chicago. U was given her by
the board , The attorney stated that ho
could not prosecute tlio woman as a procur
ess , for the girl wus over eighteen years of
ago.
ago.John F. Coots , suparintondcntof construc
tion of the now county hospital , stated , in a
communication , that ho had appointed
Charles II. McEckron as his assistant , at a
salary of $ tr > 0 per month. Regarding the re
quest of the board , asking for u r'iport as to
the condition of the work on the hospital , the
superintendent said it would require con
siderable time to investigate the building ,
and wanted a week to maka a full report.
Ho submitted a statement of a portion of the
work , which , in his opinion , was necessary
in order to keep parts of the building from
falling down. Ills recommendations uro ns
follows :
Tlio putting in of four or moro one-inch tie
rods
rods across the extreme end * of the north and
south corridors with proper washers ; the
putting In of tie rods across various parts of
the corridors to keep arches in place , fifty
In all at a cost of about f 100. These tie
rods nro to be used whore arches are to betaken
taken out and rebuilt. That after the con
tractors shall liavo thoroughly pointed up
the brickwork on each sldo of all windows ,
on the outside of the building , to liavo a
quarter round molding put around the win-
clews so as to make thorn air tight. There
are 350 windows to bo treated In that manner
and tbo cost will bo about JJSO. Mr.
Coots stated that ho had cal'od ' tlio
attention of the contractors to several
places where poor work had been done , and
that they showed u disposition to remedy tbo
defects.
The superintendent had also been called
upon by the foreman of the Htoam heating
wnrk for instructions in relation to running
steam pipes. The superintendent stated that
the plans wcro to nut tbo boilers on the sur
face of thu collar lloor at the end of ttio build
ing now in rear of No. (1 ( , and to put in u re
ceiving tank and steam pump. Tills plan
would allow the return pipes being laid under
the collar bottom nnd would cost WOO.
Another plan was to' have both the supply
and return pipes pUcoit ( n a trench under
the collar bottom , with brleir side walls nnd
corrugtod Iron cover , and to build an addi
tion in the shape of n loan-to shed on the
noi th sldo of tlio same building nnd to place
the boilers with their fronts setting over the
present north wall ; ulsn to shove up the
building ami uiuler-pln it on three sides with
a wall cloven feet below whcro It is now ,
ami to oxcavatn the whole to a depth of
cloven feet lower than it is at present. This
plan will Involve an expanse of about $ ' 3,193.
The reports were adopted and scut to Archi
tect Myers for bis approval ,

perintendent alho * nll ( that MoNamara had
boon an inmate of tlm poor farm for a year
and a half , uud as the man had no relatives
to wUoui ibo money would go , he reeoia-
mended that the amount bo turned over to
the county , ns the money would revert to
the state. The matter was referred to the
county attorney.
Tbo finance committee recommended that
the claim of Sheriff Coburn , amounting to
$223for the employment of deputies during
the Grand Army encampment in the fall of
1837 , bo allowed. Ttio rci > ort was adopted.

13S8.Summarized
Summarized , this report shows conclu
sively that one-third of the number of names
uro still on our books ns paying subscribers
who got Tun BKB regularly ; ono third of
the number never took the paper ,
and tha others discontinued at va
rious times within the past season for rea
sons that are plain on the face of the report.
Thus the World's showing is proved-to bo
n boomerang. The reaction will strike It
with a deadening force.
TDK Bin : has in its possession other proofs
of the indiscriminate and free distribution
of the World. Tuesday evening n promi
nent commission broker called and stated
that for six weeks the World had been
thrown into his yard ; that ho had never sub
scribed and had three or four times notified
the carrier not to leave it at his house , and
that ho would refuse to pay for it. Still the
paper is being thrown into his yard.
Whcro the Money Will Go.

After Many Days. * .
The strike of the stone cutters began here
a year ago has been declared off , and the
men permitted to go to work at the old wages
15 cents an hour. They demanded 5U cents
per hour.
There ore now about two hundred stone
cutters at work In the city.
There are various ways of washing dishes possibly the
above is the worst. If you want your dishes , glassware ,
Silver , &c. , perfectly clean and bright , wash them with
Pearline. Being a powder it is especially convenient for
this work besides it keeps the dish-rag clean , pure , sweet.
Put Pearline in sinks and basins , turn on hot water ; it
will cleanse the waste pipes. Many women use Pearline
for these purposes only ; they are only half wise. For
the laundry , kitchen and house-cleaning , in fact wher
ever soap is used , try Pearline it's better , quicker , and
saves labor it has no equal , no rival. It is as harmless
as the finest imported castile soap , Beware of peddled
imitations , Pearline is never peddled , but all grocers

BEFORE YOU BUY
Your Spring Suit or anything 'also iu our line , ask yourself this question : Is there n
a rger or moro reliable house than the Nebraska Clothing Company ? No oily in the West
lias a larger nor bettor conducted establishment , and what is moro , no city in the Union
has a store that sells goods as cheap as we do. We simply invite comparison of
our goods and prices with those of any other house. Every day wo serve
customers who are amazed at the low figures at which our goods are marked.
The Cheviot suits we advertised last week are pronounced by Jovorybody to bo the
greatest bargain , and nothing over shown hero can approach them. The Sacks are nearly ,
all gone , but of Frocks wo show a larger line than last week , having received during the
past few days several big lots , many of which are much finer than those advertised before
The now ones are all with fine silk facing , and make elegant fitting garments.
In addition wo will offer to-morrow a lot of strictly all wool Cassimoro Sack Suits at
$4.50. This is the greatest all wool suit over offered , and wo do not hesitate to pronounce
it ahead of any suit for which other houses are asking $ T.50 and moro. It is of a stylish
light check , well trimmed and madOj and makes a handsome as well as a durable suit.
Wo nrc plonsetl to nnuounco that we have ngnin n largo stock of those fine English Corkscrew Suits at $10.00
and customers who have been waiting for these suits , can how be supplied This is the most extraordinary bir- :
ain over offered and the fact that the first big lot was sold in such a short time proves it. Those wo have now
are if anything better lined and finer made than the first ones. As we made such a hit with those suits , we talc

pride in having them made up well. Send for a sample of these suits , it will do you goo.l to see it.

tacks inside to hurt the feet , and are as lloxiblo as genuine hnudsuwel shoes. The identical shoo costs you in any
