THE R 955 T SRR b OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY MAY 9, 1889 F————ng THEHEALTHFUL MINNEHAKTA WA Day at the Great Dakota Sani- tarium of Hot Springs. THE TERRITORY OF THE SIOUX Walks, Drives, Baths, Logends and Falls of One of the Most De- Hghtfal Resorts n the Country, A Day of Pleasure, The excursionists arosé carly at Buffalo Gap, on their way to Hot Sorings, because Jim Stephenson, the master of transpo:ta- tion, was up with the lark, His horses were hitched to the coaclies and the latter were filled in an instant although, those who had secured seats on the top of the vehicles were greatly envied by those underneath, Two moro local conches were added to the list and, when all the party had taken thoir eats, the whips cracked and the impatient horsos started offut a lively gait, through the silent stroets of the city.” The town had not yet awoke from its slumbers. We were ur ahead of time, though R, K. Thomp- . Alexander, A T. Vandervoort, of committee on receotion were on hand to meet us, The monotony of the ride was destroyed when we had passed the limits of the city, There were no painful_strotches of level prairie extending to the horizon. The view always terminated in a rango of bluffs, tho mmits morged in the clouds in a STEEP, PRECIPITOUS WALL of stone which lined the rondway. But the ass was green, the ground scemed most ortile, and where wheat was sown, as it was in many places, it scemed well advanced and full of promise. The drive led over fords, by running streams, up steepy hills and down again into valleys 'in which the early sun_rendered almost superfluous the wraps which were ap- ated on the hill tops. There was no ack of varicty in the drive, because almost every turn on the road revealed new beau- ties,” There were castellated buttes, parti- colored walls in rigia and waving lines of nature's pencilling, displaying all the wealth and varicly of color which, we are told, dis- tinguish some of the festivals abrond, where the peopiv hang from their windows and baiconies the heirloom tapestries which they have treasured for generations. At almost reular intervals we noticed the claim house of the settier, only a fow of which, however, were occupied,showiiiiz that the claimant was taking possossion of the land without actuaily establishing his abiding place upon it. All the country, however, was taken up and our party congratulated tho settlers whom they :d to have selected some of the finest land in the country. The scene, the air, fascinating. It had ITS BFFECT UPON EVERYNODY. The man who had not cracked & joke in & gouoration scatterod jokes around with prodigul lavishress: The man who had sat in notbing but a cushioned arm-chair for years, revelled in the board roof of tho coach and let his neither Limbs dangle over the side with the unconcern of a child. Tho most prosaic gentleman in the party was happy only when he could toot the horn in 80IDE Unsuspecting ear or use it to attract tho attention of some -demure bovine which had just come into view. The party had been metamorphosed into children who ceded only the space to indulgo in the old- time vleasures of “tag” and ‘‘blind-man’s buft.,” At length the Hotel Minnekahta, kept by . D. Gillespie, is reached. the distance from uffalo Gap having been made in about an our and a half. It is a long, two-story frame structure, with balconics all around, with a bacxing of rock several hundred feet in height. The party strolls about the beautiful grounds, their fancy being taken with a murmuring stream as clear as a Colorado atmosphere on a sunny day—so clear, in fact, that some of the sceptics pronounce it to be sowething else than water. The stream rushes by with u tireless energy, heedless of the remarks made about it, and we follow it until we reach an overhanging rock, where a gentleman treats everybody to a glass of dazzling liquid which gushes from a cavern in the hullside. THE LIQUOR 18 TASTELESS, though its offect seems to be exhilarating. It 18 not intoxicating, but the effect produced it is dificult to describe. We are told that its temperature is ninety degrees but we are not able to distinguish it. With sharpenod appetites wo go to break- faat, a meal prepared and served in Millard style. There is not a_demure person around the board. The air of freedom and vivacity becomes contagious, and the other guests, who have come berd to bathe in and quaff the waters for remedial effects, enter heart- ily into the spirit of the occasion. Mr. Bab- cock, of the Northwestern, leads in the hilarity, and an excellent leader he is when he makes up his mind to it. Then to the baths, These are built on the site of the old Indian bathing place, though much more_extensive now than they were when Lone Wolf and Timid Dovo poured Aibations upon their dusky forms, Here is still tho Indian bath-tub hewn out of the solid rock, through the bottom of which, like 8 blessing from fairy land, gushes 'this stream of purity and almost 'of life. It is Pipod and lea to rooms provided with every accommodation, some of the baths b huge rocks hewn to the conventional for The place is heated by steam for the accom- modation of invalids. But, as we have none such among our pleasure scek the steam is shut off, yet the temperature of the place makes us perspire. We now receive the warmth of the water. No soap is used, a fact which is nov readily appreciated by our party. We graduaily acknowledge it, how- ever, usone after the other emerges’ from his room, admitting that he feels fresher, happier, more bouyant and younger than he ever did coming from a bath in his life. The experience of our party, however, is ot the highest tribute which' may be pald £ TIIS WONDERFUL WATER There ure here volumes filled with the testi- mony of “incurables’ who have found life and vigor in this priceless stream., The category of ills bamshed rauges from those that are nameless, and_comprehending some that are unpronounceable to thav great Tluuo of plagues, rheumatism, in all its the drive was most orms. People have been cured here who oft Arkansas in despair. Besides, the sur- roundings are most cheerful, the place is nearer howe and the expense is only nominal in a comparative sense. Another attraction is the charm of Indian association, tradition and 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 Bawtlo mountam you are told of the laat struggle made for the posscssion of the £ilis, in which the Sioux were victorious. are tho ramparts of rock thrown up by yennes behind which they were be- ond the reach of the ritie or the arrow of he Sioux on & plateau beneath. But they had no means of drawing off the cnemy by whoi they were invested; neither had they moeans of egress or means of supplying thomselves with the necessaries of life. ‘The battlo was, therefore, almost bloodless, un- il starvation having laid many a warrior 1ow, the Sioux rushed upon their victims and despatched them in flendish trinmph, But ouo Cneyennooawas spared.

Then thers is aiso the pine canon, the elephant's head carved by nature, overhanging oliffs, gushing springs, genial temporature and a sky of al. most Sicilian purity and beauty, Leading directly to the front of the hotel is Wiwilakahta canon. Through this winds the Falling Water and on the bank we find the Lover's Leap, bocause no romantic spot is without a characteristic of this kind. ho tale as it is told by Judge Dudley who was formerly a resident of Omaha but who is now domesticated here, 1n substance is a follows : Mouetara was a Cheyenne maiden, it is presumed of comely form and figure. The legondaries, at all events, invested her with more of the charms that we are wont, in these degencrate days, to impart to the dusky abarigines, She was very young and straying through the woods, came upon Willintalipa, a youthful hero of the deadly Sioux. THE TRIBAL TATE, HOWEVER, did not dominate the neart of the young man, at least as _regards his fair foe, be , ‘80 the old men tell,”' the pair re- s8 of the Sioux. Menetara or mother, and tho attention shown her by the young brave alienated her tribal love and induced her to accept an abode in the midst of the heredi tary enemios of her poople. The oconse quence of this demestication was the plight ing in love of Menetara and Willintahpa The tather of the brave, an implacable and treacherous enemy of the Cheyennes, dis countenanced the mating, though the mother favored it with all the tenderness of a mother's heart. The night bofore the nuptials arrived. The light of u feeble moon illumined the village. The young man had just paid his last visit to anced and started to his tepee to wait im- b y for the dawning. Before Menetara could enter her abode she was soized by an horculean form which had been hidden in the shadows, gugged and borne with fleet feet through the tepee lines, through the surrounding forest out to the ledge, which 0 this day stands outlined against the sky like a pedestal in a Grecian temple. Against the determined savage the efforts of the weakly maiden were unavailing. The shelv- ing was reached and the abductor for a mo- ment stood up erect. He then raised his burden high above his head and the next in- stant the maiden SHOT FROM IIS GRASP out over the river and down into the current which was rapialy roliing below. The restraint having been removed from the woman mouth, a long, piorcing scream echoed and re-cchoed throughout the hills, and the next instant the young savage, Willintahpa, was upon the brave whom he cleft from crown to shoulder blade. The father had died by the son's hand, as the prospective bride bad died by those of the murdered savage, who could nov brook his blood intermingling with that of his foe. Wit the girl's name upon his lips, Wi lintahpa leaped from the rocks to the ' aby beneath where all was ruin. Whether the spirits of these lovers ever afterwards met is problematical, but their names are indis- solubly associatad 1n various ways with this oft-told legend. Below the town of Hot Springs, which is soon to enjoy the benefits of a $45,000 sol- diers' home, and a $20,000 Methodist college, are the Minnekahta falls. These are several hundred feet in length, and of the most beau- tiful description. Yhewater flows over a bed of sold rock worn iuto channels and pools countless shapes. directions and sizes. Some of the pools scem like entrances to Avernus. In the chanuels worn by the fric- tion of ages the water rushes like a cord of emerald of various sizes, while in some of the shallows the bed-rock has the mottled and velvety richness of a tiger mat. A great part of the river-bed is dry, but when co: ered with rapidly rushing \water, as it is in springtime, the effect must be inspiring. Our people disposed themselves upon the rocks and were photographed. The artist, Charles Cwsar, asked what name should be given to the place, and W. A. L. Gibbon sug- kested “Brady’s Leap.” This was because of a step which the latter had made upon a surface of brown slime, which was mistaken and which allowed the gentieman to r a number of feet. again took our stages, and as the evening sun_was disappearing in the west, reached Buffalo Gap, where a warm recep- tion awaited us. E. A. O'Briex —— THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, An Extra Session of the Board Held Yesterday Afternoc Aun extra session of the board of county commissioners was neld, yesterday after- noon, at which County Attorney Mahone stated in o communication that a young woman by the name of Nettie Everd, had in- formed him that she had been induced to come to this city under the promise of a situation in a restaurant. She came from Chicago. She was met at tho transfer in Council Bluffs by a_ brother of the woman who enticed her to come to Omaha. She pretended to the attornoy 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 wen® to the **‘Open Door,” a place for fallen women. She claimed that she was never a voluntary inmate of the disreputable house, and as sho was now without means she wanted trans- portation to Chicago. It was given her by the board, The attoruey stated that hLe could not prosecute the Woman as aprocur- ess, for the girl was over eightecn years of age. John F. Coots, superintendent of construc- tion of the new county hospital, stated, ina communication, that he ha apponted Charles H. McEckron as his assistant, at a salary of 8150 per month. R, w the ro- quest of the board, asking for a raport as to tie condition of the work on the hospital, the superintendent said 1t would require con- siderable time to investigate the building, and wanted a week to make a full report. He submitted a statement of a portion of the worls, which, in his opinion, was necessary in order to keep parts of the building from falling down. kis recommendations a as follows: Tho putting in of four or more one-inch tio rods rods across the extremo ends of the north and south corridors with proper washers; the putting in of tic rods across various varts of the corridors to lkeep arches in place, fifty in all—at a cost of avout §100. These tie rods aro to be used whore arches are to be taken out and rebuilt. That ufter the con- tractors shall have thoroughly pointed up the brickwork on each side of all windows, on the outside of the building, to have a quarter round molding put around the win- dows s0 as to make them air tight. There are 850 windows to be treated in that manner and the cost will be about $250. Mr. Coots stated that he had called the attention of the contractors to several cos where poor work ha done, and y showed a dispos nedy the uperintendent had also been called upon by the foreman of the steam heating work for instructions in relation to running steam pipes. The superintendent stated that the plaus were to put the boilers on the sur- face of the cellar floor at the oud of the build- z now in rear of No. 6, and to put_im u re. ving tank_and st pump. This plan would nllow the return pipes being laid undor the collar bottour and would cost $900, Another plan was to havo both tho supply and return pipes placed in a trench under the collar bottom, with brick side walls and corrugted iron cover, and to build an addi- tion 11 the shape of 'a ieac-to shed on the north side of the same building and to place the boilors with thoir fronts setting over the prosent north wall; also 1o shove up the building and under-pin it on three sides with a wall eloven feet below where it is now, and to oxcavate the whole to a depth of elovon feet lower than it is at present. This plan will involve an exvense of about 2,19 ‘I'he roports were adopted and sent to Archi tet Myers for his approval Justice of the Peace Anderson submitted o bill for 863 for state cases. The county attorney, in his opinion, said that a number of tho cases bofore the justice were bastardy suits, aud were not within the jurisdiction of the county. ‘The board allowed Justice An- dersou $30 on his claim. Distrivt Court Clerk Moores reported that lie had paid over to the county treasurer the suwm of $305 for flnes and trial feos for the months of October, November, December, January, February and March. ' The report Was reforred to the finance committee. John J. Mabonoy, superintendent of the poor farm, stated that a mau by the name of Frank McNamara, who died about three months ago at St Joseph's hospital, bad about §50 at the time of his death. The perintendent also said that McNamara had 0ou an mmate of the poor farin for a yoar sud & half, and as the man bad no rolatives 0 whom the money would go, he recom- mended that the amount be turned over to the county, the money would revert to the stato. The matter was referred to the county attorney. The finance committee recommended that the claim of Shorift Coburn, amounting to £228, for the employment of deputies during the Grand Army encampment in the fall of 1887, be allowed. The report was adopted. A delegation. consisting of half a dozen rosidents of Bemis' park, asked the board to Ppay a portion of the cost of grading Nicholas stroet from Thirty-fourth to Lowe avenue, and Thirty-fourth from Cuming to Blondo, and Thirty-fifth from Nicholas to Hamilton street. The petition was reforred to the committee on roads. The board will again meet on Saturday afteraoon, LOCAL L IATHANS, The Courts However Must Restrain Their Street Jobbing Propensities, The Motor Railw: company and the Omaha Street Railway company injunction cases will probably be brought to an end this woek, The South Eloventh stroet viaduct aues. tion has been submitted and the attorneys expect a decision on next Saturday morning. Friday, next, the South Sixteenth streot case is to be argued.

No date has been set as yet for Learing the arguments in that contest, but they may come up on Saturday. J. D. Howe says this litigation will raise some very fine poiuts of law. Suit by attachment and garnishment was sterday in the district court by ¢ Co, against Bdward Kahn, to sum of £2,240, aliezed to be duo on a bill of merchandise. Kahn is the pro prietor of the Gotham cigar store on Fif- teentn street, and was closed Monday night by creditors. The Omaha Loan and Building association has instituted a suit against Jessie M.

The bill for legal separation sets up numerous ucts of cruelty and charges the husband with vari- ous things that do not come within the pale of the moral code, The wifo states that she was married to the defendant, in this cit in September of 1880, T'wo years afterward she says he committed adultery, and commu- nicated to the plaintift a loathsowme disease, from which she has sincs been a sufforer, and always will be. Four months after the marriage, she continues in her petition, he beat and choked her.

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.

No city in the West has a larger nor hetter conducted establishment, and what is more, no city in the Union We simply invite comparison of our goods and prices with those of any other house. Every day we serve oustomers who are amazed at the low figures at which our goods are marked. has a store that sells goods as cheap as we do. The Cheviot suits we advertised last week ars pronounced by jeverybody to be the greatest bargain, and nothing ever shown here can approach them. The Sacksare nearly. all gone, but of Frocks we show a larger line than last week, having received during the past few days several big lots, many of which are much finer than thoss advertised before The new ones are all with fine silk facing, and make elegant fitting garments. In addition we will offer to-morrow a lot of strictly all wool Cassimore Sack Suits at §4.50. This is the greatest all wool suit ever offered, and we do not hesitate to pronounce it ahead of any suit for which other houses are asking $7.50 and more. It is of a stylish light check, well trimmed and mnde: and makes a handsome as well as a durable suit.
