"Thc Great Moral show."


Passing early along Main-street, a few NOR
nings since, my attention was attracted by the
laughing OF large. good-looking man. who
appeared to he looking at something on the
wall. From his ungovernabie expressions,
and strange gestieulntious, one might have
supposed him insane. had not his bright intel
lectual countenance forbade such . conelu-
sion. Drawing near, perceived that he was
reading some writing on the WALL" headed

was such force In the burlesque, that 1t al-

character were blended with such consummate
skill that . aeh one almost felt that he had his
part to perform. No one was so austere a.
not to be moved by the display Of skill In the
composer Of these wonderous show-bills no
one so simple that he could not readily per-
ceive the fun displayed In every sentcL ce.

Border Life, Present and Past.

The terrible fate of Custer and his gal
liant three hundred adds another tragic
chapter to the great book of Border
events, whose beginning dates from the
earliest settlements of our country, whose
end will be only when the Indians as a
race shall have become extinct
The horrors of the Modoc campaign
are yet fresh in our memories. The his.
toric Lava Beds Indian cunning battling
the skill of our soldiery for SO long a
time, savage malignity and treachery cul-
minatng in the death ofthe brave Candy
aud others whose mission was honorable
treaty and peace-all these are still re-
membered with a ashudder. Their psral,
lels in device and atrocity are only found
in the deeds that compose the history Of
the Dark and Bloody Ground or
among those which mark the bloody
tracks OF the treacherous Mingoes, de-
scending from their Great Lake fastness
es upon the unsuspccting tribes and set
Elements Of the Susquehanna and Allie
gheny.
So with this heart.rending story Of
Custer and his men, which has been
uPpH tuu SVuutIy bO buuuSuIy /,
and which is being read amid tears Of
sorrow and calls for vengeance, from one
end Of the land to the other. Some may
find its parallel in the history Of Leoni
das and his three hundred; some may
seek for like sacrifices amid the annals Of
the Scottish Chiefs or Polish Patriots.
But it is only when we turn to the
thrilling chapters of our old Border his
tory that VIC read and re read, in intensi
fled form, the bloody story Of Rose Bud
and Big Horn Rivers. Custer and his
three hundred, ambushed by willy foe
and melting away in death before odds
rendered doubly and terribly formidable
by bewildering shrieks and stcalthy mode
of fighting, recall with vivid effect the
tragedy. of Braddock's Field, whose de-
tails arc so graphically and fully narrated
in that wonderful book, "Our Westeyn
Border One Hundred Years Ago"s
Or if other parallels be sought, they
abound in the same brilliant, stirring and
faithful volume for Custer and Big Horn,
Candy and the Lava Beds, Modoc and
Sioux. are but repetitions, now fainter,
now fiercer, of Dalzell and Bloody Run,
Crawford and Battle Island, Harmer and
and the Miami Towns.
The new story, whether Of victory or
defeat. massacre or escape, cunning or
adventure. treachery or dash, hardship
or retreat, is but an epitome of the old
filled with its quaint and primitive por-
traitures, haoed about by thrilling ira.
ditions, and sanctifed to us by the facts
that our fathers were part Of it and
these our dwelling places we're scenes in
the midst Of it.
