toll. While On her way home
In the evening she was aecosted

scoundrel then fled. No motive for
the assault is known, and probably
he was drunk. Miss Wright's in
Juriee are not serious.
Today's advices from Standing
Rock continue favoFably. Rations
were issued yesterday, and Agent
Mclaughlin reports only q small
number Of bucks away. The mill
tary authorities count shows that q
large number did not appear, how
ever, and today q scouting party
crossed the river h the east side to
look up the wandering Indians. AL
the schools of the agency are closed
on account Of the excited state Of
the Reds. At a council yesterday
the friendly chiefs avowed allegi-
ance to the agent and reiterated

a numerous baud from Ro4cbud is
en- route to Pine Ridge. The Can
GERS are coming into the agency to-
day In squads, preparing TO draw

talk is heard. The Indians mainly
disclaim any hostile intentions.
Their attitude, however, does not
satisfy either General Brooke or
Agent Roger.

ems will decline TO come TO the
agency for their rations, but organ

today she described the ghos. dance.
She said these dances have been in
progress for some time. The first
she learned Of them was last August,
when a crowd Of Indians left the
reservation 10 hold, as they eaid, q

them they were engaged In the
dance. Since then they have been
holding them regularly.
"One ghost dance that saw was

others form in a circle and begin 10

They begin the dance on Friday

all this time they 90 not eat or

so dizzy that they can eca,ce-

AT LAST FRIDAYS DANCE


one Of the braves was to 90 into q
trance and rersin in this condition
four days. At the close of this
period he was to come to life as .
buffalo. He would still have the
form Of q man but would be q buff
falo. They were then 70 kill him
and every Indian who did not eat .
piece of him would become q dog.
The man who was to turn into .
buffalo was perfectly willing and I
suppose they have killed an eaten
him by this time.
'Tfthe government just lets them
alone there will be no need Of troops;
they will kill themselves by dane
ing. Seven or eight Of them died
a. q result OF one dance near
Wounded Kpee. They are now
dancing on q creek about I'VE miles
south of Wounded Knee and dane
ing with all their arms. Every
Indian has about four war clubs,
made out of round stones twisted
in rawhide. They throw thee
around during the dance, sfreW the
ground with them and beat their
heads against them. The agent
with his Indian police cannot con-
troll them and It was necessAry to|
have the troops on the ground"

TIE NEW CHRIST.

zone poor Indian, when he recov-
cred his senses, said that Christ bad
told him he must return to earth
because he had not brought with
him his wife and child. His child
had died two years before and the
way the poor fellow cried was the
most heartrending thing I ever saw.
At the end of the dance they have
a grand feast, the revel lasting all
Sunday night. They kill several
steers and eat them raw and drink
and gorge themselves to make up for
their fast.
"The arrival OF the tro0ps there
will make the Indians much worse
and they will surely fight. They
have taid all along that nothing
should break up the ghost dance,
even il they were all killed, but
then if they had been allowed to
it / think they would have
gone crazy, SO that they would have
taken to the warpath anyway. They
are all well armed snd have plenty
Of ammunition.

1t was current on the streets of Cairo the

Cache levee work, was the lucky man, and
that he had gone to New Orleans to draw
his money. Learning yesterday that Mr..
hakes was in town, stopping at Uncle Joe's

him.
Mr.. Hakes is quiet, small. plain-appearing

Country Life Versus City Life.

General o. o. Howard, speaking
through the Golden Ratle, seeks to
answer the question, "In what part Of
the country would you advise young
man to seek his fortune?" SAYS the
General:
This question implies advice as to
the pursuit Of a young man. Every
young man should have some definite
calling, and of course he must deter
mine, in view of all his surroundings,
never neglecting the advice OF his
parents and friends, that business for
which he is most fitted. I think there
is lust now too great tendency towards
the cities. and that those young men
would reach livelihood with content
ment sooner by watching the oppor-
tunities which the country affords
farming, gardening. stock-raislng, car
pentering, blacksmithing, timher-rals-
ING. and hundred other things which
the country life opens to every youth.
All things considered, young man
born and bred in the country. where
there are good school, church, and
social privileges, has the advantage
over the average youth who hurrles to
the city for employment. Still, even
to-day there is plenty Of room. as one
has said, Gin the upper story OF every
