A visit to the Standing Rock agency is well worth the time and expense, says u Bismarck correspondent of the oux City Journal. The agency build- ings are about sixty-five miles down the Missouri river from this place. The reservation has a frontage on the river of about eighty-five miles and extends sixty-five miles west, containing about 3,500,000 acres of splendid land. This reserve is the home of about 5,500 Mica- papa and Blackfeet Sioux indians. Major McLaughlin has been their agent for over six ) and all who have seen the workings of this agency agree that he is one of the most cessful In- dian agents in the employ of the gov- ernment. Every one admits that he is the head chief at this agency. Running Antelope, however, is the cnief orator among the Indians. Sitting Bull and Gall, who commanded the Custer mas- cre, have their followers. The agency located on the banks of Cattail ereek. The houses of the Indians are located along the Missouri, Cannon Ball and Grand rivers. The two latter named vers form the north and south bound- lines of the reserve. A large pro- portion of the Indians wear the garb of the pale faces. The ageney took its name from a rock about, f feet in height, and said to re- semble a huaman being, but which is really sugar loaf shaped, that was dis- covered five miles up the river from the agency standing upright. The Indians had a tragdition that this rock was a pet- rified maiden who had went out for a walk with her lover, and that they had quarrelled and that the ungallant lover left her abruptly and alone and that from her exceeding great sorrow she : i For years it is re- the superstitious indians would o and set food around this rock to the spirit of the departed maiden to be happy in the hunting grounds be- yond. Some yenrs since this belief was overcome to such an extent that the rock was brought to the agency, and amid much cevemony and_speech-mal- ing was mounted on'a pedestal, which had been provided just in front of the agent’s residence.

Twenty head are driven inside a long pen and then shot by the white employes and dressed by the In- dinns, many of whom are experts from loug practice in skinning government beef.

Mys. Clara M, Nye, only Lwo yeurs a bride, pert, pretty and vivacions, Farmington (Me.) special to the York World, was sent to jail here to-day for stealing a horse and wagon. The prosecuting attorney told a dramatic story to the court tnat made everybody, even Clara herself, laugh. A FParmington citizen was arov a commotion in his 'n. into his clothes and rushed down. as he reached the vard n hoi wagon dashed by him. [He the wagon as his own. Going barn he found his horse safe. In a mo- ment he was on theanimal’s baclk, dash- ing after the thief, with his shotgun in readin In the stillness of the night he heard the team rawtling over the frozen, icy road, up the river towards Phillips. . He guined on it, and, when within Lailing distance, cried: “Halt!” A wild laugh came back. He fired his gun into the air, but that produced no effect. Then he spurred on his horse, meanwhile putting another charge in his gun. He expected a tussel with a desperate horse thief. Soon there came a crash. The wrgon had gone into the ditch and turned over, With cocked weapon the pursu- ing citizen advanced. He found u vretty young woman grinning at him. The young woman had stolen another man’s horse and then gone for hls wagon. He patched up the team and took her back rmington. ‘lara_said she had become tired of life in that town and determined to seek adventures jn other parts of the world.

THEIR OWN VILLIANS, What Women will do for Notoriety— An Irreverent Cilmax—The Acme of Meanness—A Debtor Sold at Auction. MADE A Curions Side of Life. Mrs. Mary Hall, a middle-aged lady of Pasadena, Cal., who passed through the city last night, says the Kansas City Times, has probably the most singular calling of any person in America. She makes a business of accompanying tho bodies of persons who die in souttorn Califormia to their homes in the east, and uccording to her own story has found it very lucrative, *I have been at the business for about two years,” said she, at the union depot last night, “‘and I find that it is not uncongenial and pays better than anything else I can do. I am nowon my way home from one of my professional trips, but will stop off at ICLI(\|'1\<10. Kan., my old home, for a_few days to vos How much do I get for a tri Differ- ont pricos; generally from $3 to 85 por day, my railroad fare and traveling ex- penses. 1 get 83 a day, railroad fare and traveling expenses for this trip, but then I took italhittle cheaper because I wanted to visit friends. You see the clase of people who come to Californiain search of health generally have plenty of money, and many of them put off their visits too long. Aftera patient has been here about five woeks he generally dics or gots strong. The change is 8o great in the climate that it soon makes itself felt. Now it costs double first- class express rates to send a body from California to the the Missouri river, which amounts to about $300; conse- quently it is cheaper wo hire me, pay my expenses and feel sure that the corpse will go through safely. The number of invalids who go to California is increasing y year, and my busi- ness is fast growing better.” isit relat Pt Hon. D. A. Russell, an able, excitablo lawyer, defended Sandy Bauks, negro, for assault to murder a negress,says the Bainbridge (Ga.)Chronicle. Sohd facts were against his client, no justification appearing. After dodging the crim- inating facts as best he could, he, in low, confidential tone, closed with this stirring appeal to induce the jury to find a lesser crime: “Gentlemen—I do not ask you to ac- quit my client. It would be wrong in me to do so. 1 ask for mercy. The quality of me not strained,it drops as the gentle rain from heaven upon the in beneath; it is twice blessed; it him that gives and him t What a beautiful attribute is Did you ever think about it? ‘Why, gentlemen, without mercy there woold be no charity; without charity there would be no friendship; without friendship there would be nolove; with- out love there would be no rveligion; without religion there would be no God; without “God, gentlemen of the jury, where in_ h—1 would we be?” This climax brought out a ringing laugh, the cause of which the speaker could not see until his irreverent re- mark was explained to him. The jury found no mercy in tl\u cuse. The height of meanness has been often dofined. 1 have heard, for instance, says a writer in the London Figaro, that it has been reached by & man who, having been rescued from a watery grave in the serpontine during the skating season, and duly brought round after much trouble, in the Royal Hu- mane society’s receiving house, promptly stole the grappling irons as he fert the place and sold them for old metal on his way home. Another defini- tion nsserts that the height of meanness consists in giving a blind man a shill- ing and taking full _change for it out of his hat. But the Woodbridge Gazette now claims for that town the c possessing the meancst man in the per- Som of a miserly yeoman who refused to i his daughter to receive a seal- because, forsooth, he could not afford td' pay for the camphor which would be needed to koep the moths out of it dury ing the winter. » e A rather novel proceeding took placd yesterday evening on the public squard’ of this city, says an Helena, Ark., disd patch. A white man had been fineds for carrying concealed weapons, and h did not desire to go to jail and did nof have enough to pay the fine and costss Under the law as it now stands, and ag the county conviet farm has been abol¥ ished, tho white man was put up for sale by the constable (a colored man and sold. He was bought in at the raf of 25 cents per day for as many days ad’ it would take the prisoner to work ou the fine @nd costs at the rate of 7 cents per day. . Gotthold Markert, a veteran of thd late war and o well-to-do oitizeny adopted a singular means of putting ai end to his life. He had been on a pro« longed spree, and one night recentl went to & walled-up spring, some did¥ tance from Mount Healthy, a suburb of Cincinnati, and clambered into the structure. ' The water reached only ag far as his breast, but he remained thera’ standing in a ecrampod position, and next mormng his body was found frozern stiff. *u !
