The Indians as Fighters and Athletes.

The Indians as Fighters and Athletes
Chicago Field.l
The practical experience of the recent
Rosebud battle has about exploded the
es that 8 white man is the equal of
five Indians. The daring and reckless.
ness shown in this first pitched fight OF
the campaign proves how much they
had stsked on the result. Those who
claim that the Indian war will be of
short duration disregard the fact that
the Sioux are among the very best fight
ers in the world. They possess union
and strength, cunning without on equal,
personnel in which every man is an
athlete, capable OF supereminent feats
of endurance, Workmanship and agility.
Further, they possess the vast advantage
OF fighting on ground OF their own
sci Lection, in their own country, and with
whose resources, either for supplies or
defense, they have Il perfect familiarity.
1t affords them, toe, at every step, nat
ural fortificati ms equal-for purposes OF
cODcealment or defense-to the most
elaborate work possible to engineering
skill. Well mounted, armed with the
very bsst OF modern small arms, ever
alert and tireless, regarding death liz
battle as an honor to be sought rather
than as a calamity to be avoided, they
are practically as effective as & civilized
army Ottwenty thousand men operating
in an open country and according to the
rules OF modern warfare.
