liome 18 months later Charley Rey

to Gen. Custer, at Fort Lincoln, that
the Indian who had murdered bota
men was Raln-ln-the-Face, then at the
Bunding Rock reservation drawing
government rations.
Oin. Custer Immediately detailed
tils brother, Col. Tom Custer, and a
cavalry captain and escort to arrest
the murderer. Raln-ln-the-Face wan

the colonel had brought with him,
rerved to overawe them.
When the prisoner and his captors
returned he was brought before Gen.
Cutter. The general Muestloned tin
prisoner closely, but to no purpose.
The Indian remained lmporturable.
The next day, however, he confessed
to the general that he was tne mur
derer, and boasted of It and of the
brutal manner In which It was done.
That he had shot the elder of the two'
first, but not fatally, and that he boat
out his victims' brains with a toma
hawk and had then shot tholr bodies
lull of arrows and finally scalpod both
men. Neither of the murdered men
was armed.
In the spring of 1874 Raln-ln-tho-Face
Joined Sitting Bull's band of hos
tllos, openly proclaiming that he
would "cut tho heart out of Tom
Cuiiter and eat It." Nothing further
of him was heard until the memora
ble massacre of Custer and troopers,
June 2G. 187G. In this fight he dis
tinguished himself among his own
people by his bravery and general
thip. It has boen many times stated that
to personally killed Gen. Custer, and
t!iat he cut. the heart from the body
iu Col. Tom Ciibter and rode about the
Ccld with a part of the grewsome

There may be plnces whore Cupid's
old-fashioned bow and nrrowB are
still efficient and the darts reach the
.i .rts without undue delay, but the
sprite knows that sort of ammunition
won't do In a town like this.
So to cover more territory Cupid
suggested the want ad. columns to
Iter. J. Holwell Geer, who offered the
foregoing as a perfectly Innocent ex
pression of the needs of the hour.
But Dr. Oeer was much disturbed
because of the notoriety that befell
him when he wrote to a newspaper
asking If they would Insert such an
advertisement.
"It seems to me perfectly proper to
advertise In the papers for a wife,"
he said. "Is It so unusual? You
see I know very few persons In this
city and if a man wishes to get mar
ried under such circumstances, what
Is more simple than making bis
wishes known through the newspa
pers? It Is no more than asking an
acquaintance for an introduction to
a person one would like to meet.
"If I had a toothache and advertised
for i dentist, It would escape notice.
So why, If I have a heartache, should
I not advertise for a wife? Why
should It seem so strange?"
Dr. Goer, who Is u very pleasant
person, looked remarkably young In
spite oi his gray hair. He has a
keen sense of humor, and a gentle
demeanor that augur well for the
peace of the woman, whoever she
may be, who accepts his name.
"It Is true that I am lonely," he
continued, "and would like to be
married. Being poor I would want
the lady to have some means. This
wus said with an engaging simplicity
than belongs perhaps to the clergy
man's acceptance of poverty as part
of his life.
"The paper referred to my rosy
cheeks." continued Dr. Geer. "In
view of many causes contributing to
such ruddiness In this great city I
thl-k mine ihould be classified. I
got It from the Devonshire air."
As he spoke the hotel clerk an
nounced another reporter and the
doctor looked alarmed.
"How long Is thin likely to last?"
he exclaimed. "Why, I can't get out
to luncheon. I don't understand It.
England reporters would not think
of asking about one's private affairs.
Even In case o. murder they would
not enter a private house to get news.
It wouldn t be allowed. Why, do
you know, when the bishop of Lon
don was here recently a reporter call
ed hln on the telephone at 5 In the
morning to ask his engagements for
the (.ay. He was very indignant.'
"I tried to explain to the doctor
tbe difference between a private af
fair and a "heart interest story," to
use a "trade" term, but I had to give
It up. He couldn't see It. But any
way, tea got his "ad" In the paper
and I hope he'll get the wife. He de
serves a good oni, too. St, Louis
Chronicle.
"See here." asked the cautious
stranger, "It I decide to stay here for
a week, how much Is It going to cost
me?' "You can answer that best
yourself," replied the clerk of the
Floi da hotel. "Hov much have you
gat?" Philadelphia Press.
