CHILEAN young ladies nave been liter
ally plunged into mourning by an edict
of the archbishop of Santiago, who has
decreed that no bridesmaid in his do
cese shall appear in any color but black,
which somber attire, however, they are
to be permitted to relieve with white
gloves and wells. One cannot but sym
pathize with the Santiagian girls, whose
wits will be sorely taxed to devise any
thing really becoming in "suits of solemn
black" But the news will doubtless be
welcome enough to intending Gillian
Benedicts, for the archbishop's prohi-
bition will, 1 should say, bring about
the abolition of bridesmaids, and the
customary gifts to these attendants will
of course cease at the same time. Even
if brides to be adopt our idea Of having
pages in attendance, the expense will be
considerably lessened, for small boys
are, after all, much more reasonably
supplied with souvenirs of these occa-
sions than grown up girls.-Lady's Pict-

KANSAS CRY, Nov. 2O.-A dispatch
from Pine Ridge from James N. Finley,
formerly of this city, now post trader at
that place, was received here tonight.
The dispatch mentions the arrival of the
troops and continues as follows: THE
Indians are actually crazed with religious
fauaticism and the excitement at the
ghost dances is of a most intense charac.
ter And to their excitement the utter
recklessness OF the consequences induced
by blind fanatacism and you may gain
some idea OF the situation"
1t is the general opinion among the
troops that they will be ordered in a day
or two to stop the Indian ghost dance.
Then trouble will undoubtedly follow.
Two or three of these dances are now in
progress. A herder who Just reached here
reports that several hundred Indians
have c~ongregated secretly nine miles from
this place. They are all heavily armed
and are EXPECTING the Rosebud Sioux to
ioin them shortly -

NEW York, Nov. 20. The new
cruiser Concord on her trial trip made as
high as eighteen knots an hour against a
strong tidal current. She has proved to
be the fastest gunboat vet built by the
navy. But despite the splendid speed
shown by the Concord she failed to de-
velop the requisite 400 horse p wer.
The failure was due directly to trouble in
the second hour of the test with the after
feed pump and the leaking of the after
boiler. Before the trial ended there we're
two to three inches of water on the floor
of the fire room. Notwithstanding the
trouble it is estimated that the Concord
developed nearly 5000 horse power. The
test will probably not be accepted as

CHICAGO, Nov. 2O.-Gen. Miles this
evening received a telegram from Rush
vile informing him that Gen. Brooke
command reached Pine Ridge at I O'Clock
this morning. The Indians are coming 10
10 large numbers from Rosebud. There
is much excitement and the ghost dance
continues. Gen. Miles also received a
communication from au officer at Camp
Poplar River, Mont. dated Nov. II. con-
tainiug considerable matter of interest
officer reported that all the Indians in that
vicinity are affected by the prevailing
craze and even the more intelligent half
breeds believe in it. Numbers of the
younger Indians recently procured new
Winchester rifles, where, the officers
could not ascertain. There haa been no
excitement up there vet nor any dances.
but there is a deep and universal interest
and belief that there will be astonishing
supernatural manifestations before very
long.

try. They were ordered of the reserva-
ton and went to the Woody mountains,

remnants OF the 0ga,allas and Uncapapas.
One of the local Indians told this officer

older ones concerned in the Minnesota
massacre OF 1862. The Gr%osventres In
dians at Fort Belknap reservation are in a
very turbulent state.
As an instance Of the stories floating
around the officer tells one current on the
reservation to the effect that several
young warriors started from there to visit
Sitting Bull and learn about the e mes
siah. On the way, one of them yellow
Hawk said he had been commanded in
dream to kill himself as a test OF faith,
with the promise that he would be raised
from the dead. When they reached
Standing Rock they found Yellow Hawk
there, alive and well. having been resur-
rscted aud taken to Standing Rock ahead
OF hs companions. This Is the story sent
back by the travellers.
Gen. Miles expressed great satisfaction
this evening that Gen. Brooke's troops
reached the agency this morning before
tho Indians had ~iuaugurated hostilities,
and the TACT that the latter are not com
hitting any violence. Now" said he,
they have to attack US in our own
position or else break away from the res
ervation. The danger now is that the
turbulent bucks may leave the reservation.
The appearance of Gen. Brooke's com
mand, however. will have the effect of
sustaining the authority of the govern.
ment and give protection to the loyal sic
ment among the Indians.

A Splendid Record.

Yankton Press: Judge Croft has
made splendid record since he took
possession of the general land Office.
He went into the office September Goth.
1889, when there were pending final
entries aggregating 292,SS6. Wednes-
day, a little over six months from the
day he took charge, there we're pend
ing 232 1893 entries, a reduction of Co.,
6SS. Besides this, he has attended to
all the current business which has
come before him. AT this rate Com
missioner Croft will clear the files of
all entries within eighteen mouths.
This is the best record that has prob
ably ever been made in the gen eral
land office, and it is attracting atten-
tion in every state where there are pub
lie lands. Commissioner Croft has sys-
tematized his work so as to reach bus
mess within the shortest possible
time, and the condition Of the files is
in sharp contrast with that of TIVE

The X. ofP. Hall Opened With a
Ball.

The *. of j. ball, 10y which the OPEN
ing of the new Pythian hall was cele-
brated Tuesday evening, was one of the
most pleasant social gatherings which
has occurred this year. From forty to
fifty couples engaged in the dance, and
besides these there were present num-
erous friends and relatives of the mem
bers of the order, who came to take
view of the new hall and enjoy an hour
of sociability,
The hall, with neatly. decorated
walls, and brilliantly lighted with
electricity, presented an attractive al.
pearance, which was favorably COM
mented on by many. Though the
knights were not all dancers they
were out in full force, the members Of
the uniformed rank being attired in
their knightly costumes. The ladies,
whose toilet is always becoming and at
tractive, appeared as winsome as they
usually do and in fact every body pres
ent seemed to enjoy the evening su
premely.
The X. p. band was present, all men,
bers in full uniform. They played
several selections with their charac-
teristic skill; particularly was the mus
ic for the opening grand march very
fine. The music for the dance was
furnished by Messrs. Mashek, Ind
seth and Hover, which was of the good
| quality expected of them.
| Later in the evening supper was
served at the Sanborn house, in which
landlord NIillham and attaches did
themselves credit. Following are the

occasion:
