INDIANS GOING ON THEIR FALL HUNT.
letter to the st. Louis Republican, dated St.
Joseph, Mo-, Sept. 10, says:
A day or two since large band fthe Musuuaw-
ka or Red Fox Indians passed through the town on
their way to the northern part of Missouri and the
borders of Iowa, their fall hunt 1t appears
rather strange that they should come from their
home in Kansas to seek game in Missouri but the
truth is there are more deer in the bottoms Of the
Grand river country than can be found in the prai
ries of Kansas or Nebraska, and Indians come over
every fall to hunt them.
When the Indians reached the opposite bank of
the river, before crossing, they collected themselves
their horses and dogs altogether, and then chaned
wild air. Then they seized three of their largest
dogs and knocked them in the head with war clubs,
and drew their bodies to the edge of the water and
cut their throas, and let the blood flow into aud
minge with the current; then opening buck-sBln
bag curiously wrought with porcupne quilts, and
antique in appearance, each one took from 1t pinch

what il meant and was told by mountain man that
it was to propitiate the spirit Of the stream, that
they might cross over and return IN safety.
