Boston Herald.
Indian Acjhncv, Gukat Siorx IIkmsh-
vatioN, July 1.—“It ii n Imautlful morn
ing; let us go out anil kill Homething.”
“Oh, it's going to be n lovely day for the
beef issue. I’m so glad,” says a young lady
lit the breakfast table. Every one is ani
mated and expectant. Thu Indians are
decked out in their gayest Attire, and some
of their costumes are pictorial enough. As
we look about us after breakfast wo see
the Indian women and girls harnessing
their horses. Carriages are brought to the
door for guests, and wo are soon all on our
way to the government corral. There are
hundreds of young women on horseback.
The girls sit astride, the same as the men.
Some of the belles are in costly apparel. I
count more than fifty elk teeth on a large
cape worn by a rare and radiant brown
maiden. As each elk has just two teetli a
whole herd must have been slaughtered to
furnish the bravery of her attire.
The corral is a large Htoekade in the
middle of a plain, which slopes upward to
low hills all around. Here are many hun
dreds of cattle awaiting slaughter to
furnish rations for the noble red men, their
sqaaws and papooses, “the wards of the
nation.” There are about 2000 Indians
present. A largo proportion of the men
are armed with carolnesor improved rifles.
There is an army officer here from the
nearest fort, to represent the government
on the occasion. A brass band has come
out from some railroad town to compli
ment the ladies and frighten the already
distracted cattle with the blare of
their music. The entertainment
opens with a popular air. The
lailics applaud delicately, and the
musicians bow their acknowledgements.
Mounted cowboys enter the corral, spur
their horHes among the cattle, and drjve
groups of them, with shouts, yells and
Mows, toward the chute leading to the
scales, where they are weighed, a dozen at
a time. Alter leaving I he scales in a nar
rower part of the chute, each animal is
branded with a hot iron, and passes on in
to another divsion or department of the
corral. This first brand shows that the
animal lias been received from the con
tractor. After all have passed through
tills experience they are again driven into
the chute, with the same accompaniment
of yells and blows, and receive another
brand. This is to identify the hide after it
has been taken nil'.
All this is but overture and prelude, but
the curtain will soon rise and the play be
gin. Ladies and visitors are assigned the
best, points of view for the coining spec
tacle,. Tin Indian wagons with the
women and children, and the dusky
equestriennes, press close together around
the walls of the corral, 'flic Indian horse
men arc drawn up in two long lines, form
ing n lane from the’gate of the egress, far
out on the plain. Their carbines gleam in
the sunlight. 1 turn mid note the sweetness
of the June morning, the beauty of I he cir
cling hills, the flag of our country floating
above the government buildings, and In the
momentary busb,the gushing song ofa mea
dow lark, far across the grass. Hundreds of
Indian dogs troop about hungry, watchful
and expectant. A tall Indian, with a voice
like that of an oxhorter at un Arkansas
camp meeting, climbs up to the top of the
gate and shouts the names of the men who
are to receive the cattle, as, one after an
other, they are released to their doom.
Tlie gate openH, and a gigantic steor leaps
out, frightened and wild-eyed. Ho trots
uncertainly down the lane of horsemen.
The dogs fly nt him and he sets off on u
gallop. Two Indians gallop after him mid
everybody looks that way. But by this
time another is out, and soon halt a
dozen are raoiug in different directions,
each followed by two or three mounted
Indians. Soon a shot is beard, and then
another, and the ladles strain their eves to
see, but the steer gallops on. The ladies
look a little disappointed. ‘‘They are go
ing out of sight. Is that all it’s going to
be?” llut wait. Mon shots, ana more;
and now they come faster, like the omi
nous, irregular, but increasing skirmish
firing before a battle. Five or six of the
cuttle go off together, Willi a dozen men
pressing behind and at the side of tho
fleeing group. A horseman tires and a
steer stops so suddenly, head first, that
lie turns a complete somersault,
and the pony just behind, unable to stop,
repeats the movement, tumbling over tlie
prostrate beast and dismounts liis, fritter.
Some of the cattle arc at first only slightly
wounded, ol hers are crippled so that they
cannot run, bul several shots me required
to dispatch them. Now and then one
turns in fury upon tiis pursuers, and the
ponies swerve aside to avoid his charge.
The ladies turn quickly from side to side
to note the most interesting occurrences.
The dying animals lie all about the plain.
Some struggle long, getting up and falling
again, and the Indians wait, warily till it
seems safe to approach, for a mortally
wounded beast will .sometimes make a
plunge at bis tormentor.
Now a hunted brute dashes madly among
the crowd around the corral, the horses
start and rear and the brown maidens
scramble hastily on to tlie wagons. A
large cow,shot through and through,comes
Staggering up to the very walls of the
“grand stand.” The Indians try to drive
her away, hut she no longer heeds their
yells and blows. She reels, braces herself,
turns her great beseeching eyes up to the
women above her, and falls at their very
feet. Tlie Indian butcher appears, throws
off his leggings and bestrides her with
naked brown legs and thighs. He opens
her throat with a short knife
and cuts out tlie tongue. He
pierces no artery or large vein, and
the poor, tongucless beast dies slowly. She
lifts up her head, stares around agaiii, and
tosses about wearily in mute agony. The
half-naked slaughterer goes on with
his work, and the cow is partly
sk inued some time before she dies. It is
al! so near that the ladies have an excel
lent opportunity to see every step of tlie
process.
As the carcases all about the plain are
opened the work of the Indian women be
gins. They attend to the “fifth quarter”
of the beef, the entrails. They remind me
of the witches in Macbeth. As wo drive
out homeward, threading our way between
the bloody groups around the flayed
and dismembered beasts, many Indians are
already beginning their feast. They are
seated on tlie ground, eating the raw,
blood-hot liver. Our host stops and buys a
piece of liver from an Indian for our next
morning s breakfast. As we go on again,
a young lady to whom 1 had been intro
duced at the grand stand asks me, “How
did you enjoy the beef issue ?” The next
day at the great government boarding
school, the principal told us that Ms boys
and girls bad behaved so well all through
the term that lie meant to take them out
in a body to see the beef issue as a reward
for t heir good conduct. It is u brutal and
brutalizing spectacle.
Worried fo llcutli.
The ups and downs of a business life kill
off many men while yet they have years of
. work left in them. There have, within the
observation of the writer, occurred the
preniature deaths of several very noted
business men of Boston, who have died
not of physical causes, but of over-meutai
anxiety froni disappointed calculations,
l he recent demise of a prominent com
mission merchant was due to the con
tinued pressure of liabilities honestly as-
mmed, which he found Impossible to meet.
I Another eminent merchant who once
stood al the head of the dry goods trade in
Boston, died from over-anxiety on account
■ of the depreciation in manufacturing in-
I vestments, in which he was largely inter-
| istcd. There are many such cases-more
1 than the public knows of.
1 PLATO, PAST AND PRESENT.
i (oiiKiril I'lilIon.iilhT- Old TIhiukIiIs
Will li flip .llodiTii Ones.
Noiv York World.
This morning was read a long and most
interesting essay of Platonic Ideas and vi
tal organization. The author, the eminent
physiologist and philosopher, Dr. Edmund
Montgomery, of Texas, was not present,
and the paper was read with some Intro
ductory remarks and a running comment
ary by M r, Davidson. Beginning with a
eulogy of Plato as the first great compre
hensive philosopher, the writer proceeded
to show that the problem which Plato
sought to solve by meuus of his
ideas had not yet been solved,
being at present mainly ignored. That there
is a unitary principle In every organism,
a principle quite other than mere aggrega
tion, is quite clear, and is admitted even
by evolutionists. Evolution means a series
of changes caused in a previously existing
being. This is the true notion .of evolu
tion, and would lead to a modified Platon
ism if evolutionists only had the courage
to bo true to thoir own principles. Their
great error has been in trying to connect
tiie evolution theory with the old aggre
gation philosophy, which preceded it and
which is its absolute contradiction. Ag
gregation and evolution are entirely in
compatible, and the attempt to combine
them has led to the present confusion and
deadlock in thought. What Plato, believ
ing in the permanency of Bpecies. tried to
explain by means of ideas, viz., tho exist
ence of general notions in the mind prior
to experience, Darwin has explained by
means of evolution.
Each of us comes into the world with “
fund of ideas inherited from the experi
ence of past ages, and it is these plus our
own experience that form the world in
which each of us lives. Man’s world grows
up with himself and depends upon the dif
ferentiation of experience; but if the indi
vidual were a mere aggregate such cumu
lative and inherited experience would be
impossible. There is, therefore, in all or
ganization a permanent form or idea which
evolves into ever higher and more con.- 1
[ilex activities, aud Is entirely independ- >
cut for its existence of the matter with
which it successively combines itself.lt wi s
shown that this form, though never alto-I
gether uncombined with matter, is yet so I
independent of it Unit certain animals of I
higher organization may be cut in slices, 1
and each slice will round itself into a I
perfect whole. The ideal form of inner I
activity does not cease to be complete i
because the material correlate is defective, j
Dr. Montgomery showed in a very amus
ing way that in flssiparious animals there
are no parents, no offspring and no death, 1
only parentless twins continually multi
plying themselves without dying.
lie pointed out that all generation is but
n modification of the flissiparots. That in
all cases an ideally organized portion of
an organism, not a rib, however, is de- :
Inched in order to form another organism
the same eternally unfolding idea realizing
itself in both. The lecture was one of the
ablest and most interesting of tho course.
It was listened to with profound attention.
It will probably be printed in the Index.
No I in in ii nil) mini Cholera.
Dr. Hancock in the Globe-Democrat.
It is just sixty-two years since I qualified
to practice, and although I have seen many
improvements in medicine and surgery
during that time, I have learned that there
Is no such a thing as a specific in medicine.
The nearest to it is quinine for malaria,
and even that isn’t altogether reliable. I
have been through three cholera epi
demics, one in Ohio in 1882, and the other
two in St. Louis in 1849 and 1866. No
amount of research has succeeded in un
raveling the mystery concerning this ter
rible scourge. In 1849 the population of
St. Louis was about 60,000, one-third of
whom got out of the city as speedily as
possible. Contrary to the usual theory
that extreme heat causes or expedites
• uilera, the first eases were in Jan
uary, and the lost in June. The victims
died at the rate of about 250 a day. and the i
doctors seldom bail an hour’s rest day or
night. The cholera was Asiatic of‘the!
worst type, and very few who were at
tacked escaped. In one family of ten I
seven died in one day, aud others were j
only a little better oil’. The removal oftlie
dead bodies was fearful work, and it had :
often to be done in tlie night, although all
kinds of vehicles were impressed into the 1
service. In I860 the sanitary condition of
the city was much better, and the deaths ]
were much less numerous. On some days j
forty or fifty died and on others about'n
hundred deaths were recorded. It has j
been proved that there is no such tiling us .
absolute, immunity from an epidemic of
cholera,

Journal of Inebriety.
Never contradict or attempt to reason ,
with an intoxicated man; tell him clearly !
and kindly what you wish him to do, auil
then have power to compel obedience.
This is an asylum axiom. Sneers and de- !
nunciations of the disease of inebriety and j
persecutions of the facts are dangerous, for, ,
like dynamite, they will explode from I
pressure and send their advocates into ob- ,
livlon. The defective memory of inebriates
always leaves an impaired power to reason
uorreetly as to the nature and character of
acts, or to draw proper conclusions from
the experiouoe ol the past. Tlie damage
to the central brain regions in inebriety is
clearly seen in the perverted sensations so
often manifested in hyperiesthetic and
amesthetio conditions of the skin, disorders
of taste utnl the special senses.
BLOOD AND MONEY.
The blood of nu.n has much to do In shaping
his actions during his pilgrimage through this
troublesome world, regardless of the amount of
present or expectant money in pocket or stored
away in bunk. It is a conceded fact that we ap
pear as our blood makes us, and the purer the
blood, the happier, healthier, prettier and wiser
we are: hence tlie oft-repeated interrogatory,
“how is your blood ?” With pure streams of life-
giving fluid coursing through our veins, bounding
through our heart#-, and ploughing through our
physical frame* 5 , our morals become better, our
constitution stronger, our intellectual faculties
more accute and grander, and men. women and
children happier, healthier and more lovely.
The unprecedented demand, the unparalleled
curative powers, and the unmistakable proof from
those of unimpeachable character and integrity, |
point with an unerring finger to B. B. B.—Botanic j
Blood Balm—as far the best, the cheapest, the !
quickest, and the grandest and most powerful |
blood remedy ever before known to mortal man, j
in the relief and positive cure of Scrofula. Rheu- I
niatism, Skin Diseases, all taints of blood poison.
Kidney complaints, old ulcers and sores, cancers,
catarrh, etc,
B. B. B. is only about three years old—a baby in
age, a giant in power—but no remedy in America
can make or ever has made such a wonder fhl
showing in its magical powers in curing and en
tirely eradicating the above complaints, and
gigantic sales In the face of frenzied opposition
and would-be money monopolists.
Letters from #11 points where introduced are
pouring in upon us, speaking in the loudest praise.
Some say they receive more benefit from one bot
tle of B. B. B. than they have from twenty, thirty
and fifty, and even one, hundred bottles of a
boasted decoction of inert and non-medicinal j
roots, and branches of common forest trees. We 1
hold the proof in black and white, and we also I
hold the fort.
I*o li com nil's Views.
Mrs. M. M. Prince, living at 3-j West Fair street, ;
Atlanta, Oa., has been troubled lor several !
months with an ugly form of catarrh, attended j
with a copious and offensive discharge from both j
nostrils.
Her system became so affected and reduced that i
she was confined to bed at my house for some j
time, and received the attention of three j
physicians, mdused a dozen bottles of an exten- j
sively advertised blood remedy, all without the |
least benefit.
She finally commenced the use of B. B. B., with j
a decided improvement at once, and when ten ,
bottles had been used, she was entirely cured of
all symptoms of catarrh.
It gave her an appetite, and increased her
strength rapidly, and I cheerfully recommend it
as a quick and cheap tonic and Blood Purifier.
