The Bald False Prophet OF tho Cheyennes.
Rrorn The Porflnnd Ore1ontnn.

HELENA, May 13.-An Indian runner who
came In last night from Tongue River says
that couriers sent out BY tho Cheyenne Indians
to find the new Messiah. or second Christ. saw
him and talked with him. They located him In
tho mountains beyond Salt Lake, and from
their description of him ho is an old man, with
q long white beard which hangs down over his
breast. Some days he wears white hair and
nj other times has no hair on his head, from
which II appears that lie Is bald headed and
wears wig.
lie made one of tho Cheyenne Indians who
visited him q high priest. and instructed him
In the rites and mysteries OF tho new religion.
He gave him the figures and ceremonies of o
new Indian dance, which takes four nights and
one whole day to perform. The Cheyennes
have Just finished their first performance Of
this religious dance at the Rosebud Agency
and 1t has accustomed great enthusiasm among
them. The Indians are to perform this dance
four times in four moons lmonthsl, and then
they will hear again from the now Christ, who
will instruct them what further to do, They
oil believe in the new Messiah. and all work
has about ceased among the Cheyennes.
The Indians are all very mysterious about
their new religion and will tell the white men
nothing concerning II. They arc sulen aud
dissatisfied. and the military authorities re-
gard the new movement with an apprehension
Of trouble.
MAJOR Carroll says the now Christ is no doubt
some old Mormon elder or bishop who is
Spirituaiist. and is proselyttng Indians to
locates him on Green River. 1t IS said that
Crow Indians are sending out delegation 10
meet the Christ, who Is coming 10 meet the
Crows. The cell in the guard house at Fort
Custer has been busted out and prepared for
the Messiah If he can be caught.
