Another Strong Eftort to be Made to Secure Opening of Bioux Beserraoon. Jeff. Davis Again Heard firom Foi8omng an Elephant—Epw copal Convention. Gov. Church To Take A Hand-. Pierre, June 24-—Another strong effort will be made to secure the opening of the Sioux reservation by the next congress. Herbert Welch, of Philadelphia, secretary of the Indian rights association, was in Pierre Saturday. Mr. Welch is now snaking a tour of the Sioux reservation. He is strongly in favor of opening the reservation. From talks with Indians he 1 knows they will without- much trouble except the bill. Mr. Welch is heartily in sympathy with the Dakotans and will also go to Washington to aid in the pass age of the Dawes measure. The scheme devised originated with GOVERNOR CHURCH AND AUDITOR WABD. It is suggested by Governor Church, that Pierre, Chamberlain, Rapid City, Deadwood, and other points interested in 1 the opening of the reservation, send del agates to the convention to be held either in Minneapolis or St. Paul in August. Dakota is also to have five delegates ap pointed by the governor, an,d that several railroad companies also be aBked to send delegates as well as Minneapolis, St. Paul, Chicago and Sioux City, cities that draw trade from this section, and would add largely to the sales should the scheme prove successful. They could appoint a committee to draft bill, one to consult with the Indian department and presi dent, and one to lay the facts before con gress. In this way it is intended to se cure a strong lobby. Governor Church would gladly take hold, meet with the convention and give his ideas on this question more fully. Eugene Steere of Pierre, was appointed to correspond with the cities interested. Polsonin® An Elephant. BOSTON, Mass., June 24.--Bijou, a famous elephant that has been before the American public for sixty years, was killed on Saturday night at the World's Museum, where it has been suffering from old age and disease. Poison had been prepared in capsules, which were concealed in chocolate carmeis. Dr. A1 Watts offered one to the great beast as it lay upon its side. Bijou took it with great deliberation, swallowed it, and looked up tor more. All that had been prepared wei© given, and then the the result was awaited. The poison used was the same Dr. Watts uses in dispatching homeless dogs. It did its work thoroughly. Just forty-fiveminutesafter the first bitof e&ndy had been placed in its mouth Bijou was dead. For* few minutes there had been convulsive workings of the legs and body, the gnat head was] partially lifted from the ground and then .• fell back eyes beewte fixed, and! without another tremor Bijou passed: '^away. While seven grain of the poison would kill a man, a pound was used to bring about a similar resuit with Bijot The dead elephant weighed some 4,000 pounds, and was strong in proportion It was a male elephant the Africos species, and some seventy-five years old. Jeff Davis Again. DANVILLE, III., June 24.—Th© foUow ing letter was received to-day:' BEAUVIER, MISS., June 23,1887. CoL P. HOWARD, Danville, 111. DEAR SIR: In answer to your letter of request by the Danville farmers and me chanics institute that I should deliver an address at its fair, 1 rqply as I did last year. Some fears ago I delivered an ad dress in Winaebago county and was re ceived with great courtesy. There I was among friends, for memory went back to •the months of June, July and August, 1832, when as a lieutenant on the staff of CoLS. Taylor I was stationed at Prairie du Chien, or Fort Crawford, as it was then known, and during the memorable and historical Black Hawk war it was my good' fortune to help in protecting the pioneer settlens of that cousftry, whose descendants -Jt spoke to atBookford, I cant oome to Illinois this year^nd to the association through yon I have only to say, as I said last September in an open letter to Col. J. T. Sharor, of Baltimore, that I deny the chaises made against me 1 by Gea. W. T. Sherman, in which he says he that I was foremost in encoura ging the late war. I say to yon, my dear colonel, that I did all in my power to prevent the late war, and that I never looked for nor aspired to the post of chief or executive of the confederate states. I nay say that the order of the war department to return the captured tiagn to the late confederate states was a violation of all known military prece dents. You will find in my history of the late war that there were but twenty-six regiments in the regular army of the north, and of a total of 560 confederate flags captured it is questionible if these twenty-Aix regiments captured fifty. The flags were captured by the volunteer army of the north and belong to the sev eral states and have no right to be in the national capitol. Respectfully yours, JEFFEBSON DAVIS. •. Episcopal Convention. I GRAND FORKS, June 24.—The Episcopal convention of North Dakota will meet in St. Pauls church. Grand Forks, on Tuesday and Wednesday, the 28th and 29th of this month.

The citizens of Grand Forks are dl invited to attend those meetings. iSfS§ Light In Honolulu. NB-W YORK, June 24.—When Queen Kapioland was recently in this country she arranged to have several improve ments made in Honolulu, including elec tric lights and telephones. W. H. Croes rpnn, of W. H. Crossuian & Brother, who are interested in the shipping trade be tween this country and the Sandwhich Tninnfln, said of these: 'iMuch enterprise has been shown in Honolulu of late in the way of public im provements, and which are not excelled in any City in this-country. Electricity lights her streets, and telephones may be found in almost every residence as -well as in the business houses. Large water works have been recently completed, and a large shipment of hydrants of the most improved pattern has recently been sent from New Yonk for the use of her effi cient and thoroughly organized Fire De partment. When these hydrants have been placed, the increased water supply, with the department's many fire engines and trucks and equipments of the latest and best American manufacture, will make the facilities for fighting fire equal to those of any city of her size in the world, and will render impossible another such frightful disaster as visited Honolulu not long ago. All traces of that fire are speedily being obliterated, and substan tial bricsj and stone buildings are taking the places of the burned wooden shan ties. The Prince Of Spouters KOKOMO, Ind., June 25.—Without doubt the largest gas well in the Indiana gas belt was developed here. Well No. 5, known as the "Shrober well," one and a half miles southeast of the court house, discounts anything yet drilled in Indiana. Trenton Bock was reached at a depth of 900 feet, and fires were put out until this morning, when work was resumed and continued until 11 o'clock. At that time THE PRESSURE became so great that it was impossible to drill further. The gas, mingled with dust and stone, escaped from the pipe with such force as to be thrown to the top of the tall derrick. The well is 912 feet deep. It was the intention to sinkit eight or ten feet deeper, but that is now clearly impossible as well as quite unne cessary. The magnitude of the flow is a surprise to even the most sanguine, and experts pronounce it the king of Indiana wells, and the equal of any thus far known. The well is as dry as a powder bom, and the gas isof a supoior quality. Two more large factories have located here one of which immediately con tracted for 600,000 brick for their build ings,- to be begun at once. Painting the Town Red. STEW YORK," Jnhe 25.—New York has carely seen anything so ^eccentric as the parade with which the warriors of the Salvation Army last night wound up the Hallelujah jubilee that they have been noisily carrying on for a week to celebrate the ninth anniversary et the Army ta war with the devil in New York With bloodred banners flying, drums booming, and tam bourines jingling the Warriors marahed up and down a big streteh of Seventh and Eighth avennes, and feept the Ninth and Sixteenth wards in a turmoil for over am hour. Ahead on horseback, rode Staff Majer, Mrs. Keats, en a Meed red gown. iWo men held the horse te keep the Staff Ma jor on. Behind her, on foot, singing, walked fifty more wemen, also in blood red gowns. Then Sallowed a squad. «f women in blue gowns, red, white, and blue sashes, and pokefconnets. They beat tambourines and sang salvation songs. Amid them an an open barouche, rode Gen. Booth, commander of the Army, and his pretty little Dnglish wife. Little children in gowns of red, white and Mae, rode in anether tbarauche. They, too, sang hymns. When the Army 'get back to its bar racks in the old Presbyterian church in Jane street, it sang and beat its tambour ines all night king. Medina Minutes. MEDINA, Jane 25.—[iSpeciaL]—We want ta depot. Mr. and Mus. A. J. Hill drove to James itown to day. J. B. Fitzgerald, .of Jamestown, was in itown today looking softer his interests here. F. D. JandeU, our rustling ranchman, came in on today's train from James town, and goes to his cattle ranch, twelve miles north of tins place, where he is put ting up a large amount ef hay. Our school, arith Miss Anna Knauf, teacher, will close the second week in July for a vacation for one month. Mrs. A. G. Gnlford has returned from Miaoken, Dak., where she has been visit ing. Oar school election was rather exciting. Thomas Williams carried off the honors by bringing a lady to the polls to vote. defeated parties would not allow her to vote, and your oorrespondent thinks rather ungenerously, she being the only laly ottering to cast her ballot. The rail road men carried the day, and John Utt terdahl, section foreman, was elected treasurer, nearly two to one. Hotel Oueata can Drink. NEW YOBX, June 25,-The general terms of the supreme court have reversed the judgment of the lower court in the hotel men's test case and ordered the release from custody of James H. Breslin, proprie tor of the Gilses house, and Charles M. Vilas, of the Fifth Avenue hotel, who sub mitted to arrest in order that a judicial construction of the act of 1887, prohibit ing the sale or gift of spirituous liquors on Sundays and special or general elec tion days, might be had. As the matter stands now, saloons must remain closed on Sunday, but hotel keepers may sell liquor to guests with their meals. Cass Countv Coal. DUBLIN, Dak., June 25.—The greatest excitement prevails here over the discov ery of a fine vein of coal at this place. 1 '"i A- While putting down a well on the south west corner of the quarter on which the town is platted, Mr. James Malone, the lucky owner, struck a vein of very fine coal at a distance of only twenty feet from the surface. Th»coal is of a very fine quality and the vein twelve feet deep. The length and breadth of the vein or field, whichever it will prove to be, is of course unknown, but it is very probable that every man in this vicinity can mine hia fuel in his own cellar by making the 6ame a little deeper than ordinarily. He Dropped A Snug Fortune. BALTIMORE, June 27.—Robert Garrett lost $250,000 on gas today. He began buying the stock about a month ago, when he formed a combination with a leading operator in the New York Equit able Gas Company. The object was to secure control of the Consolidated Gas Company, and then make terms with the Chesapeake, anew company, so as to put an end to the war of prices, and consoli date the competing companies. Mr. Gar rett had agreed to surrender to the New York operator, sufficient stock to control the Consolidated directorship. He bought 21,000 shares at prices ranging from $67 to 870, but could not obtain the requisite amount of stock. When he tendered his holdings to the New Yorker they were declined, becauce the amount was insufficient. Thereupon Mr. Garrett dumped the pile on the market, aad the result was that prices tumbled with a rush. The last lot was clssed outj today at 54.1 This ends Mr. Garrett's connection with the gas deal. _____ Of Course a Forgery. NEW OELEANS, June 27.—JeffersonDa vis in a published card states that the letter sent out from Danville, Illinois, purporting to come from him. is a forge ry. Mr. Davis stated in an informal con versation that the views expressed in this spurious letter are precisely the reverse of those aciually entertained by him. Arrested Under Sunday Law. DEVIL'S LALE, June 27.—A special to the Pioneer Fives says employes of the Manitoba road were arrested at Peters burg today fpr working on Sunday, on complaint of Attorney Johnson, who, it is said, is trying to get even with the pai he company for alleged injustice done him by the company. Pushing Manitoba Extension. ST. PAUL, June 27.—General Superin tendent Eagan, of the Manitoba, has re turned from a tour of inspection to the end of the new extension. He says the line is being pushed forward with all rap idiy. The weather has been favorable. The work has now reached a point 177 miles west of JEnot. A Sporting Man's Experience. A CHAPTER OTROM THE LITE hr 'T. 3. M'MUL LAN, OF CORINTH, MISS. Mr. McMullan is one of the best known chicken and dog fanciers im the south. His coops and kennels are filled with the finest specimens of game chickens and well bred sporting dogs. For many years of his- life he had serious misfortune, whiedfc he explains in the fallowing letter, which also tells what was the unlucky sporting man's real mascot: You will pardon me for addressing jou an a-subject on which I know you must get .-numerous, if not innumerable, let ters, that gratitude prompts me to tell you about what I regard my most re marbclile cure of rheumatism by your S. S. S. For ten years I suffered withrheu matism. I had about "saturated" my entire body. I had pains in every part of it. My lelt leg was the worst affected. Even today, though entirely well, my left leg is a little smaller than my right, shriveled from rheumatism. For five yeans I may say I was da danger from istarvMtion from inability to work at my trade on account of this terrible disease. When I came to Corinth from Alabama I was on crutches for two years. Of oouiBe during all these sad years I wad at tended by good physicians. They gave me powerful doses of potash and sassa parilla, which did relieve me some for awhile, but I got no permanent relief until, thy a friend's persuasion, I used S. S. S. 1 determined from the benefit I receives from the first 'few bottles to take a thorough course of your medicine, and I took about one dozen of the specific. When I began taking the medicine I weighed 130 pounds, and when I finished the thirteath bottle I weighed 237 pounds, and I weigh that yet. I regard your medicine as the poor man's best friend, if he will only take it in time, and thus save him from extrava gant doctor's bills and preserve his health.
