CARNIVAL NOTES.

Inquiry among the Indians at the grounds
as to whether any of them took part in the
troubles of 1862 showed that they were
rather averse to talking about their doings
at that time. There are, as near as could
be learned, only three Indians in the band
who participated at all in the raids of their
tribe at that time, the male part of the band
being mostly composed of younger gen
Grafton. The three alluded TO, however,
are the chief, Tukanahnamani, who claims
to have been neutral, merely following his
band. and afterwards surrendering himself
to Gen. Sibley, Tasinnawakanhdi and
Oyatekokipapi. All three of these served
a term in the military prison at Daven-
port, Ia, the first two years, the second
four years and the third one. The second
Indian named is quite old and blind.
