Buffalo Bill and Pawnee Bill Stand
by Gravesides of Former
Border Friends.
COLUMBUS, Neb.. Sept. .-8peolal.)-Ont
of the most Impressive ceremonies that
has been seen In this place was witnessed
today when Colonel William F. Cody (Buf
falo Bill) and Major Gordon W. Llllle
(Pawnee Bill) honored the memory of Ma
jor Frank. North, Fred Matthews and
George W. Clother by a visit to the graves
of the three men at Columbus. Dean
Beecher of Trinity cathedral, Omaha, read
the memorial service and Buffalo BUI made
a laudatory speech of the man who was hla
great friend and partner and at the same
time one of the best known men In Indian
affairs.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Garlow (the latter Is
a daughter of Colonel Cody), Captain Lute
North, Captain Ous Q. Beecher and Lieu
tenant Gt-orge Lehman, surviving members
of Major North's band of scouts, went to
the little cemetery. The procession was led
by Buffalo BUI and Pawnee Bill. A daugh
ter of Major North rode in the same car
riage with Buffalo Bill.
Although there was a certain solemnity
about the procession, It was full of pomp
and action. Those In the procession had
not come to see a man burled, but simply
to honor his memory many years after-
ward. The principal members of the pro
cession were thuse of the show Buffalo
Bills Wild West and Pawnee Bill's Far
East, which sturted the occidental side of
the show twenty-six years ago In Co
han i bun. "Taps" was played at the grave
of Major North and over the heads of the
rowd sixteen souaves fired round after
round of blank cartridges.
When Dean Beecher had read part of the
130th and 139th Psalms the crowd Joined
In prayer. Then Colonel Cody was called
and he atrewed flowers on the graves of
the three men who long ago were hla faith
ful friends.
Johnny Baker, the crack shot and arenic
director of the shows, had cnarge of the
arrangements, and just as Colonel Cody
placed the flowers on Major North's grave
J he unfurled a union jack and spread It over
the spot where the old fighter was burled.
Major Llille was a great friend and ad
mirer of Major North. He served under
North as an Indian interpreter. Colonel
Cody slid that North was his life-time com
rade in arms and a long-time partner In
peace, tie said that no tribute told, no
matter how eloquently put. could do jus
tice to the good qualities possessed by Ma
jor North.
"My friends," said Buffalo Bill, "you can
Imagine the emotions that fill my heart in
thinking back. Major North was one of
the loveliest characters Ood ever created,
one of the bravest men products of frontier
days, one of whom It may be said we may
V not look upon his like again. Peace lo
J. Is ashes and may bis story go down the
years to illumine the days that tried men's
souls la the settlement of the great west"

LINCOLN. Sept. t-(Speclal.) Governor
Shallenberger returned today to his office
aftet a swing around the state which In
cluded a brief visit to Omaha, and he
came back filled with the spirit of Ne
braska. "We Nebraska ns do not boost enough,"
said the governor. "We have everything
In this state that goes to make up a great
Commonwealth, but we do not as a rule
talk It enough. If we boasted and boosted
as much as some of the other western
states which do not'begln to have the won
derful resources we do, Nebraska's popula
tion should be doubled in a very short
time.
'I noticed on our recent northwestern
trip that almost every person we met told
of the wonderful resources of his country.
Of course that is a great country up there
and there Is no doubt about It, but an acre
of Nebraska wheat or corn land looks to
me like It Is worth about a section of their
rocky country about which they boaBt so
much.
"We found on that trip that Nebraska
merchants are providing products for the
consumption of people clear to the coast
which Indicates to me that we really have
something to boast of In a manufacturing
line as well as In an agricultural way.
Booster clubs should be at work all over
the state to tell the stranger within our
gates what we really have here."
Complaint la Dismissed.
The complaint of XV, F. Dlers against
the Missouri Pacific to force that road to

Missouri Pacific, was on hand to fight the
case, but Mr. Dlers did not show up, and
neither did he ask for a continuance or
give any reason for his failure to appear.
Hence the commission dismissed the com
plaint. Stork Subscription Refunded.
The railway commission this morning
ordered the Miller Telephone company to
pay to Mrs. L. A. Northrup what money
she had paid for stock and dismissed the
case. Mrs. Northrup complained that,
though a stockholder In the company, she
was refused service. At a hearing held
at Miller It was brought out that after
paying 30 into a mutual fund for the
construction of the line, each stockholder
was assessed $10 and later $6, but the com
plainant had failed to pay the assess
ment. Political Headquarters at Fair.

BABY WITH
ITS HMDS TIED
To Keep It from Scratching It
self Had Eczema that
Doctors Couldn't Cure
SUFFERED ALL ITS LIFE.
At Last Parents Took the Little Suf
ferer to United Doctors and
New It's Well.
Little Majorle Olsen, ths three-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W- E. Olaen,
who live on a farm near Argenta, 111., ha.4
at last been relieved from the terrible suf
fering which the poor little mite has en
dured all her life.
This little girl had been afflicted wltii
eciema almost from birth. Her parents
took her to many different doctors, but
none of them understood the disease and
allowed her to grow worse and worse.
At last Mr. Olsen heard of the marvelous
cures being made by the United Doctors,
who have their Omaha Institute on the
second floor of the Neville Block, corner
Sixteenth and Harney streets, and decided
to take the little Majorle to them.
When ths United Doctors commenced
treating the little girl she was In a fright
ful condition, but these specialists did not
depend upon ointments and washes at
other doctors had. Instead they went to
the root of the trouble they treated the
blood, as It la only by cleaning the polxon
out of the blood that any case of eciema
can ever be really cured.
Mr. and Mrs. Olsen are Overjoyed at ths
recovery of their daughter and make the
following statement for publication:
Argenta, J1L, July 1, 1901.
Dear Doctors: '
Our little daughter, Majorle, has had ec
iema since she was one month old, being
three years old last January. As soon ai
her face begun to break out we took her
to the doctor and have doctored her ever
since, but none of them seemed to be able
to stop the breaking out. They would
help a little for a while and then it would
get worse than ever.
When sho was small we had to fasten
her hands to keep her from scratching her
face, sod she suffered very severely. It
was all over her face, body and hands.
About five months ago we came to the
her ever being cured, after they told ua
they could cure her we began the treat
ment. They have helped her wonderfully.
In five months It has all left her body
and hands and her ' face is nearly all
healed and we feel that she will soon, be
entirely cured. Yours very truly,
MK. AND MUd. W. K. OLSK.W
There are hundreds of other Nebraska
people who have had the same Joyful ex
perience. The wonderful new snd more sctentlfto
treatment used by the United Doctors la
curing those who had been given up a.i
hopeless rases by all ordinary doctors Is
why their Institute, on the second floor of
the Neville Block, corner Sixteenth' and
Harney streets, Is always crowded wita
patients. Advertisement
