From th Sioux City Journal.
A tali shaft of stone on a bluff to the
southeast of the city, overlooking the
Missouri wiver and not far away from
the Floyd river, recalls the earliest con
spicuous Incident in the recorded history
of this region. -
This wss the e'gpToratlon by I,nwrhj
and Clark. Instituted by President
Thorns Jefferson in 1M4 to secure in
formation regarding the great western
domain. Th Floyd monument was
erected by patriotic and appreciative cltl
sens of Sioux City and other places In
honor of Sergeant Charles Floyd, who
tiled near Sleux City while on that ex
pedition. The story of the death of Sergeant
Charles Floyd, which occurred ovsr 100
yesrs sgo. hss been written many times,
but the Interest of Sioux Cttyans therein
never Isg. Some of the circumstances
of the exploration and of ths death and
burial and subsequent reinterments of
Floyd are told in this article, ths In
formation being; given by John VL
Charles, president of the Floy Memo
rial assorlstlon. sn organisation ef
fected her for the purpose of caring for
the grave and preserving th ntotory In
connection therewith, and w,Mch. after
much effort, erected the fine monument.
In 17tJ Captain Orey discovered the
mouth of the Oregon river, now called
the Columbia, which gave to the United
tts, by the right of discovery, all
JAs' portion of country drained by the
Columbia river. In th same year
Thomts Jefferson suggested to th
.American Philosophical society of Phila
delphia tti propriety of fitting out an
expedition for the headwaters of th
Missouri river. At that time th entire
Missouri river was still owned and con
trolled by the Spanish and th French.
There were but It states in th union
st that time, not on of them reaching
weat of the Mississippi nor touching the
gulf of Mexico. But Jefferson, who was
alwavs wide awake and looking ahead
for the bast Interest of the country,
had thought this mstter ovr carefully,
and he concluded it was essential for the
people f th United States to know
something of th headwaters of the Mis
souri river, and also-1 cross the portage
as It wss called, between the headwaters
of th Missouri snd the principal river
of the Pacific slop.
Money Bard to Balsa,
The society above referred to agreed
with Mr. Jefferson. But how to rals
the money was a serious question, al
though It was but 1.000 or a trlfl lass
that was necessary. After eight or nln
veers of hard work trying to raise ths
mean with which to go to the head
waters of th Missouri river, thsy fi
nslly succeeded in raising sbout $00.
snd It wss decided thst It was best to
proceed at one 'with this expedition.
For this purpose they selected Capt.
Meriwether t.ewls and a French scien
tist by the name of Micheaux. These
two gentlemen proceeded with the inten
tion of organising the expedition, but
before they wire ready for th trip Pro
fessor Micheaux was recalled by the
French government, and thus ended the
first effort si trying to find th head
Waters of the Missouri river.
But In 1803. after Jefferson had pur
chased the province of Louisiana, con
gress appropriated 12.000 for th pur
pose of this expedition, snd Captain
Iwls was again appointed, and h se
lected Cspt. William Clark for his as
latant. They proceeded west at one
to St. Louis, and while on th route,
passing through Kentucky, they selected
a number of men. among them Sergeant
Chart Floyd, who afterwarda died on
the expedition, and is burled on Floyd"
bluff In this city.
Bxpedl tlon Bets Oat.
On May 10, 1S04. the expedition set
out from St. Louis' (or. father, from
Cahokla. 111., which was a town opposite
the mouth of the Missouri river) on the
celebrated expedition. They proceeded
up the Missouri river, and on August
10. 104. Sergeant Charlea Floyd died
and was burled as above stated.
Sergeant Floyd was a young man frosa
Kentucky of more than ordinary merit,
snd was highly esteemed by Captains
l.cwis and Clark. As stated, he wss
burled on Floyd's bluff with th honors
of wsr. where hla remains rested until
the spring of 1U7. when the river cut
into the bluff so as to endanger ths loca
tion. The people of Sioux City Went
down and reacued the remains, snd In
due time reburled them on the same
bluff about tOO yards further east.
There r a number of people still In
Sioux City who remember the circum
stances. The grsve bad frequently been visited
by men who wer traveling through the
country a, for Instance. In 1831,
George Catlln. a celebrated painter
and Indian traveler, stopped st the grave
and made a painting of the bluff, which
Is still extsnt. and a copy of which can
be seen In CetlhYe works.
Thr wer others, too, coming up the
river who visited the grave of Ser
geant Floyd. In May. 1311. th Overland
Astorlsn expedition, under W. P. Hunt,
stopped here. In that party were Mr.
Bradbury, whose work Is well known,
snd Thomas Nuttall, subsequently noted
for his work on ornithology; and still
Ister In the same month and the same
vear Henry W. Breckinridge, in com
pany with Manuel Lisa, a noted fur
trader, also stopped at the grsv of Ser
geant Floyd.
Monument Is Brectod.
In 185 s number of Sioux City people
who were acquainted with the location
looked up the neglCted grave of Ser
geant Flovd, and after considerable
search found the spot where the remains
wer at ret. It now becoming Im
portant In the eetlmatlon of a great
many popl thst something should be
done to show the gratitude of the Amer
ican people to the memory of him who
ad loat his life on this expedition. It
wss decided to organise the Floyd Me
mortal association. The exsct date of
organisation Is Juns . 185. and the
face the grave of Sergeant Floyd. Th
organisation was concluded Aug. SO.
IMR. when oertsln memorlsl services
were performed.
The association purchased from the
Sioux my Stock Tsrds company and
paid foi acres of ground on Floyd's
bluff This ground was deeded to the
Hi of Sioux City for th purpose of a
perpetusl park to be known as Floyjl
Memorial park, with the exception of on

Slates in constderstloa of an appropria
tion of 8.OO0 which was mad for th
erection of a shaft on the grounds to
commemorate and mark th spot where
rest th ashes of Sergeant Charlea Floyd.
Th efforts of th association wer
enthusiastically pushed until- May 30.

Something About Floyd.
In light of th trlbut which the Floyd
Memorial oasoclatlon hss paid Sergeant
Charles Floyd something In detail about
'his life may be of Interest. As a matter
of fact, however, not a great deal is
known of the young soldier.
It waa frontier Kentucky blood that
coursed In the veins of Sergt. Charles
Flood blood that has had much to do In
making the 'history between the Alleghe
nulea and the Rockies. Hla ancestors
moved Into the country In the laat quar
ter of the llth century and were highly
respected snd well to do. His grand
parents war William and Obadlah
Flood, but whether hla father waa Col.
John Robert. Charlea or Ishsm Is not
definitely known. Nor have the time
and place of his birth been fixed. The
probabilities are that Charles was a son
of Charles, snd that he was born In Jef
ferson county. Ky , between 1 780 snd
1 785. In any event he came of a stock
given to fighting Indians and his Is no;
the only monumsnt dedicated to a Floyd
for services rendered on the frontier.
But Sergeant Flyd waa never a sol
dier In the United States army. H waa
on of the "nine young men from Ken
turky" who th Lewis snd Clsrk history
saya joined the expedition in the fall of
183 at St. Louts snd went Into winter
camp at tha mouth of Wood river In
Illinois, nearly opposite th mouth of the
Missouri. He waa between :3 and
year of age, of neither fame nor for
tune, but somehow won one of the three
pieces aa non-commissioned officer.
And still another Investigation of thst
celebrated newer! can It be thst there
Is a suspicion thst it contains secreted
treasure?
(Special Dispatch to The Journal )
San Francisco Dec. 24. "I have seen
him throw hi stepson into a trance and
make his muscles as rigid aa so many
Iron bars. All that waa necessary, a
glare and a couple of passes with hi
hands, and it was all off with th vic
tim. He could make Mrs. Chad wick look
Ilk an amateur."
Thla la the way Mrs. H. X. D. Flem
ing of 133 Turk street described tha
methods of "Dr." William Proctor, who,
she declares, swindled her out of the
valuable White Sulphur Springs property
near Santa Rosa.
The "doctor" la now In difficulty
across the bay. where he 1 being triad
for theft In the Alameda court, aa th
outcome of hla friendship ' for Mrs.
Kmellns Tyson or Nlles. who says h
stole 81M and several rings from her.
Since his arrest, Mrs. Fleming and
Mrs. Caroline Nielsen of 1418 Eighth
avenue, East Oakland, have com for
ward with the information that they
were also victims of Dr. Proctor, ac
cording to Mrs. Flaming, Proctor la a
hypnotist, and she believes It Is thai
power that ho employe to dupe unsus
pecting women. He tried it on her, but
she resisted the Svengall glare whan he
suggested a matrimonial alliance, though
when It came to a business deal a couple
of passes settled her -and she gave him
th deed to her Santa Rosa property.
"The first I ever heard of thla Proctor
was when I received a letter from him,'
said Mrs. Fleming today. "I had ad
vertlsed White Sulphur springs for sal
and he answered the advertisement. In
his initial letter he asked me to excuse
his Impudence, said he had heard a lot
of good things about me and declared
that he was a good man. He promised to
tell me all the good thing he had heard
about me when we met. ,
"I did not know what to make of the
letter and did not answer it. He wrote
again from. Petaiuma. saying that he
thought he could dispose of my prop
erty, and we arranged a meeting. H
came to th springs June 5 and told me
he had a friend In Los Angeles named
Martin who had property In Los Angeles
valued st 83,000 and a let in Ban Diego
worth SS00. Aa the agent of Martin ha
offered to exchange that property for
the springs.
"Proctor represented himself to be a
Mason, and as I had a brother in the
Masonic order, I trusted him. The trans
fers were made and I learned, too late,
that the southern properties were worth
less. The Los Angeles residence did not
belong to Martin and the lot In San
Diego waa appraised at 84. I tell you.
Proctor Is a dangeroua man.
"It is true he suggasted marriage, but
was not thinking of such thing. It was
strictly buslnass with him, so I told him
I would wait until I knew more about
him before entertaining hi proposal.'
Since deeding away her Santa Rosa
property she has conducted a lodging
house at 123 Turk street. A mortgage on
the Whit Sulphur springs has recently
been foreclosed.
BISHOP TALBOT ACCUSED

Ethelbert Talbot, 8. T. D.. LL. D. bish
op of central Pennsylvania, and one of
the most dlstinguisnea oi American
churchmen, is the central figure In what
promises to be the greatest ecclesias
tical trial of many decades.
Two years ago the country was
startled by charges of conspiracy
brought against Bishop Talbot by an
unfrocked rector of his diocese. This
accused waa the Rev. Ingram N. W. Ir
vine, who had been forced from the pul
pit of St. Paul' church end Hunting
don. Pa., by th bishop, and who told
an amaslng story thst leading cnurcn
men refused to credit.
The story wss. In brief, that in un
frocking Irvine and expelling him In Ig
nominy from tbe mlnletry Blahop Talbot
had aimed to please a woman and to
gratify her spite.
Thla astonishing charge was made In
ths triennial general convention of the
Protestant Episcopal church held at San
Francisco. It was speedily amothered.
Now It has been brought up again.
