show were excellent, the comedy OF

is whole show, and good one too, in
himself, and Lansing is one of the few,
perhaps, in fact, the only one, who can
cover himself with instruments and play
brass band alone The ladies of the
company are good actors, sweet singers
and accomplished musicians, and the
show throughout one of the very best
that has ever visited Winnemucca.

ahead, so as not to run away and leave
it. We, who had guns, marched ON each
side of the teams, firing as we went, by
which means we kept the enemy at dis

no more of them. During the retreat we
kept two men with axes, one on each side
Of the ox.team, to cut the yokes off in
case an OK was shot, SO as not to have to

knives to cut the harness, etc. We
travelled that night to the old stage sta.

dressed the wounded, threw off the thatch
from the roof so it could not be burned,
and the next day moved on all that day,
that night and the next day, when we
arrived at Middleton in Paradise Valley,
but neither saw nor heard of any more
Indians.

head, all the sinews were taken from his
legs and arms, stick sharpened at both
