Chamber.
4 rarfv of Sioux Indians were guests
o.s leading Milwaukee hotel, and the ladies had
,-,, deal of amusement with them studying their
C..,l.nes that is. they all did except one lady.
7r. Indies called upon the Indians, and the saw
o, r.,nrncd the calls almost before the ladies got
N -',rfr rooms One lady called upona chief, and
th-,, went To her room and retired. Pretty soon
A., Was a knock at her door, and she found it

IN. and, surprising it was the porter, said:
ThcIoor opened, and in walked Mr. Indian. She
t5ak one look at him and pulled the bedclOthes
over her head. He sat down on the side of the
bed and said:
Wc,. She was so scared that she didn't know
hos from Adam. She said to him in the best Sioux
Size could command:
Please, good Mr.. Indian, go away until get
But he didn't seem to be in hurry He picked
uu pieces of her wearing apparel from the floor,
different articles that he didn't seem TO know any
Thing about where they were worn, and made COM
m,uts on them in the Sioux tongue. The stock
iI-> seemed to paral we his untutOred mind the
most. Ihey Weret those W IN the Shade stockings;
they were too much for his feeble intellect He
held them up by the toes and said, Cgh!" The
lady trembled and wished he would go away. He
seemed to take great delight in examining the
hair the bureau, and looked at the lady as much
to say, Poor girl, some hostile tribe has made
on the pale face and taken many scalpS.'
Finally she happened to think of the bell and
she Tung il though the house was on fire, and
pretty soon the porter came and invited the In
dian 10 go down stairs and take a drink. The lady
locked that door too quick and she will never
leave il open when there are Indians in town. She
saws her hair-on the bureau-fairly turned gray
from fright.--VjilUGutes San.
