Injtton Senator 8pooner.
[ CopurtoM , 1890 , bjFmnfc O. Carpenter. !
WASIUXOIOS , Dec. 4. [ Special to Tun
35KE. ] The Indian troubles will form ono of
tiio subjects of legislation during the present
session. A great deal of quiet talk Is * going
on.among the members as to the Sioux and
not a few express themselves m the words of
General Sheridan to the effect that "tho-best
Indian Is tbo dead Indian. " Ono of the best
Indian authotlties in the United States is
Captuin Bourke , who was on General Crook's
staff for eighteen years und who has spent
tbo most of his life upon the frontier. Cap
tain Bourke has made a study of the Indians.
Ho has written a number of Interesting
books about them and ho Is now writing a
volume for the government ou Indian medi
cine men. Ho knows moro about the dances
of the Sioux and other Indians than anyone
in the country nnd it was ho who gave to the
national museum a necklace of human lingers
which ho captured from an Indian medicine
tiuii. I talked with him last night about this
phase of Indian character. Said ho :
"Tho Indians nro very superstitious. They
licllovoin the supernatural und an adroit
elclghtof hand pcrformor can hnvo great In-
Jluenco over thorn. Ono way to beat.thorn Is
to light thorn with their own tire by sending
ilrat class American Juggler * out to them.
When the medicine men of the trlbo do their
vendors lot those Jugglers do their tricks and
the power of the modlclno men will wane.
This wns the method I pursuod'wlth thorn. I
rover discredited the power of the modlclno
men. I only told them that my medicine was
bettor than their medicine , .and that I could
do a great deal moro than they could.

when I visited n big camp of these Sioux.
There was some excitement at the tlmo nnd
the raodlclno men were boasting what they
could do. I arranged my b ittory nnd took n
stiver dollar nnd placed It in n pan of water
and told their best medicine man that I would
give the ono who could pull It out i provided
ho took hold of the brass handle of the bat
tery with ono hand and pick the coin out with
the othor. There were , perhaps , J,003 In
dians looking at us , and they conceived n
ileop reverence for mo M they saw tehmost
famous of their modlclno man attempt to do
this and fall , being thrown Into convulsions
in the attempt. At last ono of the strongest
Indians in the west came up to mitko the
trial. Ho seized the battery und mndo n
grab for the dollar. The electricity went
through him like a shot and bo kicked
the battery all to pieces. Ho wanted
to try It again and wo patched the battery up
and ho finally succeeded In getting the dot-
lor , owing to tue weakness ot the current
furnished by the broken battery , Ho was
twisted out of shape almost by the effort and
the Indians of that camp looked upon mo for

of the chiefs 'and , without a warri
ng , gave him a slap on the
slilo of the chesk , nearly knocking
liim over. Then with his other hand ho got
iiold of the other cheek nnd apparently pulled
a &il ) gold piece out of It , while the rest of
the Indians looked on with open-mouthod
wonder. Ho went up to another chief who
rejoiced in the tltlo of Llttlo Big Man , and
grabbing him by the nose pulled a S O gold
piece out of his nose much to the chief's sur
prise. This chief was with mo during nearly
the whole of the day and ho evidently uld not
get over the impression ho had received. I
saw him n number of times and when ho
thought I was not looking ho would pull his
blanket up over his nose and feel tbo end of
it to sco if lucre wore not some moro $20 gold
pieces where the othoc ono bad come from. "
A SCAUED Al-ACIIi : DOCTOII.
"I remember another medicine man , a big
Apache , who called upon mo In the surgeon's
oalco at one of the stations. I was very anx
ious to see his medlclno charm which ho
carried carefully concealed under his shirt
and which not even the other Indians over
saw. I told him I know ho was a great medi
cine man but tint I bcliovod that my modi-
clue was bettor than Ills medicine , and with
that I p'lckcd up n bottle of nitric acid. It
was not bigger than your thumb. I said , 'I
will put a ilrop of this on your tongue , nnd In
ono minute I will burn a hole clear through
it. * He opened his eyes but when I again
asked him to stick out hU tongue ho said ho
believed I could do it and that ho would not
test my skill. I then nicked up a bottle of
chloroform nnd said , 'Hero Is moro of my
medicine. If you smell this I can put you to
sleep and no one can wuku you until I want
to wake you , and with this , ' picking up an
other bottle , 'I 0.1H strlko you dead.1 By this
time ho was thoroughly scared and ho showed
mo tno wonderful talisman by which ho per
formed his tricks. It was a chamois bag
covered with mvstorlous characters. Ho
wore it over his chest and It never left him
night or day. "
now INDIAN" MnmciNE MCX woiuc.
I visited the National musouin thU morn
Ing and took a look at the specimens of In-
ilian doctors In its collection. One form of
the Sioux medicine man has .a bearskin over
his shoulders nnd a boar's head upon his
head , mid ho walks along with an arrow
adorned with feathers as his staff. The
Alaskans have their incdiclno men , and Micro
is an Ivory carving from Alaska showing the
Indian doctor driving out the evil spirit from
u patient. The spirit is traveling off on a
turtle and the doctor claps a pair of Ivory
sticks together In triumph as Uo goes. The
Indians along the North I'ucUie coast have
terrible orgies as to their inodlcino men , aud
Indians are chosen us medicine men through
popular superstition. If n man dreams that
his son bos performed a miracle ho concludes
that tbo boy is cut out for a medicine man ,
nnd ho gives htm over to the doctors for cJu- .
cation and training. The Sioux ordeals uro
by all moans the most sovoro. The young
modlclno men Imyo to hang themselves U
ropes by skewers , which nro put through the
muscles of their breast , nnd they bang on to
tho.io ropas until the llosh Is torn off
'
There 'are no moro superstitious In
dians in the world than these Sioux
and though the present dangers ma >
bo exaggerated , still It Is casv to BOO tiov

who would pretctjd to perform miracles.

A SIOUX CnESTEIlFIBUl.
'There is no llnor Indian in the United
States , " said Judge Noah , "than the full-
Blooded Sioux. 1 remember the impression
one of thorn made on the famous Tom Mar
shall of Kentucky when ho visited St. Paul
, n 1831. The town then had only one street
Mid Marshall came into it on one of his pro
tracted sprees which by this tlmo had become
rnoro or loss chronic. The day after ho ar
rived bo catno into the hotel and told mo that
Uo bad mot the most courtly specimen of sav-
igo politeness that ho bad over seen. Said
tie : 'I walked down the street from the hotel
and when this magnificent savage came
towards mo with the free stride of his race ,
his blanket thrown back over his shoulder ,
his form erect , and his air tliut of a prince , I
was so profoundly impressed that 1 took off
my hat and bowed low In salutation before
him. Ho started back as I did no and then
ns I rose , with a most graceful sweep of his
hand , ho made mo a profound bow ana offered
mo hh hand. I took it and felt myself so
honored by the contact that I could not resist
the temptation of giving the Indian a dollar
before I loft him. ' "It Is needless to say , "
concluded Judge Noah , "that Tom Marshall
was not overly sober at the tlmo. "
lilt. KOCII AT WASHINGTON' .
The experiments of Dr. Koch in Berlin nro
creating considerable talk among the states
men at Washington. A great deal of skep
ticism is expressed as to the success of the
learned doctor , and I do not find that the ma-
orlty of the public men hero have a very
lh opinion of the medical profession. Ono
senator who comes from a western state and
who wears'two pair of glasses gave an ex
perience that ho had lately with a famous
Now Yonc oculist , one of the most noted men
in his line m tile country. Said ho :
"I lot this man treat my oycs and ho did
mo a great deal of good , aud showed such a
knowledge of the eye that I was truly umiiz-
od and during the examination I said :
'Doctor , you have a wonderful knowledge of
tha human eye and lam really glad to know
you.1 'Yes , ' ho replied , 'I do know somo-
tiling about tlio eye now , but you must re
member that I spoiled about two bushels of
eyes before I became acquainted with it and
learned liow to treat it. ' This settled mo ,

1 mot Senator Spponer in the war depart
ment today. Ho has not yet decided what ho
will do when his present term In the scnato
ends , but the probability Is that ho will prac
tice law in Milwaukee. Ho is ono of the
brightest lawvors in thbUnltcd , States , nnd

the public school law wixs the cause of the re

question of hjs return to the senate did not
cuter into the canvass.
Admiral Portdr Is much better nnd it is
now believed that ho will got well. Ho has
a wonderful constitution , and ty > has accom
plished a Krcat amount of work within the
past few years. Ho has written several
novels and a great number of magazine arti
cles , and ho has other literary work in view.
Ho is one of the fastest writcn among our

Chief Scavoy enlisted in Omaha in the fall
of 1801. In n company under Major J. C. Wll-
cox. which was being raised for : i Missouri
regiment , nnd which became in January ao- , ' ,
company II of the Curtiss Horse. This repl-
incut wns composed of battalions from Min
nesota , Missouri and Iowa. It afterwards
wns known as the Fifth Iowa cavalry , and
received all Its recruits from that state.
General Lowe was Us commander , nnd bis
father. Dr. Lowe , was Its first surgeon.
Chief Seavoy served In this regiment until It
was mustered out of service nt Clinton , la. ,
in August , 18J5. For some time ho was
quartermaster-sergeant and first sergeant ,
nnd In December. 18M , ho was promoted cap
tain of company H , Fifth Iowa cavalry. His
commission bears the names of Hnrlan
Balrd , lieutenant-colonel commanding , now
of Dakota county , and James H. Wing ,
lieutenant nnd nctlng-ndjutant. Mr Sortvoy
was captured at Jonesboro , nnd taken to the
rebel prison at Andersonvillo , where ho re
mained for slxtoon days. He llrst managed
to escape from a train load of prisoners which
was wrecked near Biirnesvulo while on the
way to prison , but was recaptured by rebel
scouts after ho had gotten safely within the
union lines. During the time ho was con-
llnea at Anderson villo. ho' kept a
diary , and that records the fact that 143 was
the smallest und IG'J ' the largest number of
dead prisoners removed from the prison lu
ono duy during bis confinement. Ho pot out
when an order came to send 500 prisoners to
bo exchanged. Tha weakest and most emaci
ated wore selected and Scavoy was among
them. They woro. so weak , however , that
General Sherman refused to exchange for
them , und they were sent back. Soavoy was
unable to walk aud was sent toMacon prison ,
where ho remained a week. Ho slipped nwny
from there with a number of ofllcon who
were to ba paroled. Lieutenant Ulnrk of the
Second Indiana cavalry lot him tnko his uni
form nml both passed out together , Ularlc
being known nnd Seavoy trusting to luck to
ojcapo detection in his bold attempt. Ho
dodged from one file to the other whim they
were being counted , and was miles away
when his escape wns discovered at tbo prison
roll-call. Tbo confederates sent after him ,
nnd ho secreted himself In a creek u whole
day whllo the party of paroled oilCOM ! were
being recounted and did not leave his hiding-
place In the water until after dark. Uy
tramping thirty miles during the night , ho
managed to get Inside tbo union lines at day

for soundly thumping an orderly sergeant ,
who was insisting that ono of tno boys who

night should go on guard duty. Howdcn pro
tested against it and the orderly told him In
not very elegant language to keep his mouth
shut. That was too much for Sergeant itow-
den nnd ho proceeded to kick the orderly all
over the c.mip. Ho then tore the sergeant's
stripes on his sleeves and was again a private.
But for that last action , which of itself re
duced him , ho would have been allowed to re
tain his stripes. The memory of thovigor-
ous lnmbastbig ; ho administered to
that "young popinjay" ore pleasant
morning twenty-seven years ago , still causes

his itjlloctlon in the little cracked looking
glass that Jailer Havey hai taelced up in a
