vo-utpnt,s Entertainment.

The st. Georges Snowshoe club of Win
nipeg will give characteristic entertain
ment tonight at carnival hall Illustrative of
the manner i'm which the snowshOe clubs in
the British Northwest enjoy themselves.
These clubs have social tendencies, and it
is the habit in Montreal and Winnipeg to
take trampS to some comfortable country
inn having suitable accommodations, and
there spend couple of hours in jolly, limo
cent recreation. These weekly tramps are
enlivened by singing, and each club has its
chores song by which it is known. Many
of these songs are set to simple melodies
that have been handed down from genera
ton by the French Canadians who in many
instances inherited them from remote an
cestOrS who came 800 years ago, when
Canada was first settled, from Normandy
and Brittany, two provinces famous for
their troubadous in old France. One of
the features of this entertainment will be
the Red River Jig, which has been danced
with Indian maidens and halfbreeds from
time immemorial by the servants of the
Hudson Bay company. This entertainment
will give our citizens an idea of the pleasures
of snowshoeing. and as this outdoor winter
sport has become an institution among us.
although but of recent growth, few lessons
and sample will come in very apropos.
The following is the program, which has at
least the merit of being very varied. The
club practiced yesterday morning at carni-
val hall, and found its acoustic proper
ties satisfactory. Following is the progam
for this evening:

IL Was m Accident.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5.-Senor Romero. the
Mexican minister Mt Washington, has re-
ceived from the governor of the state of
chihuahua, Mexico, an official report of the
unfortunate encounter which the Mexican
forces had with the United states troops COM
manded by Capt. Crawford at the mountains
of Bavis. on the l1th ult. 1t is stated in the
report that the Mexican force, commanded
by Maj Mauricie Corredor, arrived on that
day at place called Tcopar, ID the Sierra of
Bavis, where they knew that the Apache In
dams had rendezvoused under the leadership
of Geronimo. The Mexicans fired on
the United States troops in the belief that
they were hostiles. In the fight which ensued
Maj. Mauricie Correuor. First Lieut.. Juan De
LaCruz and Private Mariana Madrid and Luz
Estrada were killed and four other soldiers
wounded. As soon as the Mexican forces
found out that they were firing on United
States soldiers they stopped firing and ex-
pressed 10 the latter their regret at the losses
occasioned TO both commands. The report
gives as an excuse for the above mistakes the
difficulty OF distinguishing the renegade In
dams from the scouts. and saws that while the
latter generally behaved themselves when In
their camp and under the view of their OFF,
GERS, when they get out under the pretext OF
hunting or looking for hostile Indians or
others, they sometimes commit great depre-
dations on the peaceful inhabitants of the
frontier and cannot readily be distinguished
from the hostile Indians.
DRUNKEN MEN TO BLAME.
TOMBSTONE. Ariz., Feb. 5.-The reported
causes leading TO the shooting of Can't.
Crawford are confirmed by the arrival here
to-day from Sonora of A. j. Huncke. a
citizen of undoubted credibility. He reports
that last month fourteen of CrawfOrd's
scouts, while intoxicated. attacked Next
can citizen living near Fronteras. They
subsequently rode into Fronteras, firing up
and down the streets. driving the terrified
citizens into their houses. which they barred.
preparing to defend themselves. The
drunken scouts had the town to themselves
for a time. The Mexicans banded and
were ready to attack the men when Craw-
ford rode into the town, and by his presence
succeeded in drawing of the scouts.

Successful american opera.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-The American Opera
company gave tonight its first rendition of
THE Merry Wives OF Windsor" Nicolai's mu-

tress Ford of Miss Pauline l.. Anemaud was

Chicago, scored decided success. Added TO

CARNIVAL NOTES.

Rather Iaughable story 10 told on some
of the special police appointed few DAYS
ago by Mavor Rice. Three OF them were
sent over to Dayton's bluff yesterday to pro-
tect the toboggan slide from interruption
or interference on the part OF any person
disposed to interfere with persons using IT.
1t so happened that several cows passed
along that way and either inadvertently or
bv design got onto the slide. The slide was
long. steep. slanting and slippery. The
result was that the noble milk producers
got scattered all along the slide, and the
more they tried to climb up to the top the
more they slid toward the bottom. The
special policemen were called. They went
vigorously to work, but only succeeded in
mixing matters up more and more, and
finally gave up the job as bad one. Then
it was that telephone message was received
at the city hall: ''For heavens sake, send
us a regular" A regular was sent over
and no further complaint was received.
*x*
The Windsor hotel was so crowded last
night that all the parlors, dining and bill
lard rooms were filled with cots and some
slept on the bar-room floor. There was no
dimunition in the crowd at the Ryan, and
the Merchants has $50 more guests than
usual and the rs cots it put up Thursday
were all required for last night There
were a number more of calls for the car
nival committees apartment list. The
visitors find time speeds all too fast as al
most every hour in the day has some at
traction. These added to the courtesies
and Inequalities of friends amply fill up
the time. Our citizens here show a COM
mendable public spirit in this respect and
ever since the carnival commenced there
have been no end of formal and informal
dinners and evening parties for the benefit
of visiting friends and acquaintance.

Messrs. Nicholson and Kelly are two of the
liveliest of the Winnipeg snOwshoe club.
They have a peculiar laundering for the
badges worn by the GLOBE TOboggan club,
and when less ambitious club men say ''up,
up up" these two men quietly lay the
victim on billiard table or a couple of
chairs and swap badges with him. They
insist that they will have collection of
