CUSTER SCOUT
BODIES FOUND
MILES CITY, Mont , June 23.—An
Incident in the taming of the west,
i fight with the Sioux on the banks
jf the Yellowstone river, west of
the mouth of the Tongue river, 25
miles west of the present site of
CUy, w*» to
r recently for the first time, according
| to a statement made by G. R. Mor
; ria, of Great Falls, Mont.
The story was brought to light by
! James and Patrick McEvoy, of C’anu
liar, when they stated they had know
' ledge of two graves of white men,
killed there in the early days by
hostile Indians. None of the oldest
pioneers here, Including the McEvoys,
who have lived here more than forty
years, knew the identity of the men.
Mr. Morris, who was a scout un
' dcr General Custer and General Stan
i ley during their expedition in 1873,
1 after hearing the story of tho uii
! known dead, said:
"When I was a scout with Custer
and Stanley In 1873, we had a fight
with Sioux Indians ou the north side
or the Big Yellowstone river, across
and in the bottom above the mouth
of the Tongue River. In the fight,
the veteran army surgeon. Dr. Hal
singer. of Custer's cavalry, and Sut
ler, w-ere killed and the bodies were
burled. Mules trampled over the
graves oblitering traces of burial.
This was done to keep the Indians
from scalping the men. My part
ner, Charles Reynolds, and I saw
them killed.”

THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY
TROUBLE AND NEVER
SUSPECT IT
Applicants for Insurance Often
Bejected.
Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direcl
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has been very suc
cessful in overcoming these condi
tions. The mild and healing influ
ence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
i soon realized. It stands the highest
for its remarkable record of suc
cess.
An examining physician for one
of the prominent Life Insurance
i Companies, in an interview of the
subject, made the astonishing state
ment that one reason why so many
applicants for insurance are rejected
Is because kidney trouble Is so com
mon to the American people, and
the large majority of those whose
applications are declined do not,
even suspect that they have the
disease. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root
is on sale at all drug stores in bot
tles of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to teat
; this great preparation send ten
cents to Dr. Kilmer ft Co., Bing
hamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle.

MEXICAN CONSUL
HERE ON AFFAIRS
OF GOVERNMENT
Jose A. Valenzuela Consul at
Seattle Investigating Con
ditions in Alaska.
To investigate condition*! of Mexi
can residents in Alaska, Jose A.
Valenzuela, Consul of Mexico at
Seattle, arrived in Juneau on the
steamer Queen from Ketchikan and
will upend several days here. The;
Consul has jurisdiction over Mexi
can affairs in the States of Wash
ington and Oregon and the Terri
tory of Alaska.
Mr. Valenzuela came north to
make a speojal investigation of
conditions of his country fellows at
i Ketchikan and at Karluk, his Gov
i eminent having received complaints
from these two places, ho said, lie
sinent several days in Ketchikan ad
justing affairs there and while on
his way to the Westward made the
decision to stop at the towns cn
routo to Karluk.
“I ant aiWtiou* to work in co-o-p
orution with the authorities in Al
aska in adjusting actions of nty
coftntryfellows in this Territory,”
said Mr. Valenzuela. ”1 will take
| into consideration both complaints
I of Tlie authorities and complaints of
the Mexican residents here.”
Mr. Valenzuela has hod jttrisdlo
tion in the two northwestern states
and Alaska for the past year, main
taining his headquarters at Seattle.
Previous to this timp he spent sev
eial years at various po. t s in the
Eastern States.
This is his first trip to Alaska.
The country which has been unroll
ed before him is far different then
he had anticipated seeing, he de
clares.
"It is so different from all my
ideas of the north,” he said. ' The
sunshine, the warmth and the vege
tation and beautiful flowers. It is
a wonderful country.”
Mr. Valenzuela Is anxious* that
the people of Alaska know of his
country as it really is and is pre
paring an article for this puropse.
The people of the North have an
^erroneous idea of Mexico he said.
"It ts no wonder to me that, Mex
ico it not known as it really is to
day, to the people eo far distant,
for I, and I ask pardon, harbored
the idea that 1 was coming to land
inhabited almost entirely by Es
kimos.”
Rodolfo Ramirez, formerly Consul
of Mexico to Alaska, in the summer
of 1921 and who maintained his
headquarters at Juneau, was re
leased from government service im
mediately after leaving Alaska and
is now in Mexico, Mr. Valenzuela
said.
