SLAUGHTERED SIOUX,
Republic.

The true story of the wiping ont
of Big Foot's band at Wounded
Knee will be long in coming out.
The Indians are not good at talking,
and do not use the telegraph. Be,
sides, there are very few of these
particular Indians left to talk. 1t
seems, however, that the Seventh
cavalry, 500 strong, came up with
the band of l2O Indians with
their squaws and pappooses, on
Wounded Knee Creek. The Indians
were led by Big Foot, who, Accord
ing to the dispatches from the
ground, was sick with pneumonia
The Indian warriors, occupying a
strong position in line of battle,
protected by the ridges and gulle' j,
sent Big Foot out for terms. ADJ
yancing in spite of his pneumonia,
he asked for ga talk" Major
Whiteside told him that there was
no time for talk. He must either
surrender or fight. Outnumbered
hopelessly, and his band being Sioux,
encountered with women ard chil>
dren, and without the ponies which
are as much part of Sioux fighting
as the warriors themselves, Big Foot
surrendred at once and gave up his
position of advantage. The whole
band came in and gave themselves
up with their women and children.
They were then completely surround
ed by the troops, and after about a
fourth of their guns had been given
up, under the muzzles of the SOL.
dier's guns surrounding them at a
few feet distance, shot was fired.
Who fired it will probably never be
known. The reports from our side
are, of course that our side did not
do it. However that is, an indis-
criminate slaughter ensued. The
Indians who retained their guns de.
hvered volley; those who had been
d!sarmed fought with knife and club.
The troops returned volley after vol>
ley from their repeaters, shouting
Remember Custerw as the war;
riors, squaws and pappooses melted
away under their deadly fire at close
range. The Hotchkiss gun got to
work, and barbarsm, male and fe>
male, old and young, went down be,
fore the latest scientific appliances
Of destruction, with "Remembel
Custer!" rising in repeated shouts
above the noise of the cannon and
the crack of the repeaters to cheer
on the work.

An English Joke.

Tckleribs is practical joker, but he
is very much afraid of consumption.
The other evening he began coughing
and went to the telephone and called up
DR.. Whiteye and told him he was pretty
sure he was in the first stage of con-
sumption.
Now, it may be stated by way of pa
renthesis that Tickleribs had played a
good many jokes on the girl at the CEN
tral call office, SO as soon as sho heard
what he said she rung up music shop
where young man is in the habit of
practicing upon bass horn about that
time and told him in her sweetest tone
that she would like him to blow short,
sharp blast right in front of the trans
mitter of his telephone as soon as he
heard the bell tinkle. The young man
got ready.
"Oh, l fancy you're mistaken" said
the doctor.
'No, amt. Lose no time. Come over
at once"
''Hold on! Cough in the telephone"
The girl, who had been listening ,jerked
out the plug connecting Tickleribs, put
that connecting the bass horn in its place
and tinkled the bell, according to previ-
GUS arrangement.
The young man dropped the receiver
from its hook and blew terrible blast.
The girl Immediately restored the con-
nection, and the doctor, after recovering
from his astonishment, asked:
'Did you cough?"

"Why, you are turning to jackass
very rapidly, and you had better begin
your new way of living at once. You

While the doctor wondered and the
patient raved the telephone lady split her
sides with laughter, and the ignorant
young man footed his horn in ignorance
of what he had done.-Exchange

THE FIRST THIS YEAR.
A WELL CONTESTED BASE BALL
GAME YESTERDAY.
Good Players Provide Excellent Sport-A
Vivid Description of the Game-The
Score.

Yesterday was beautiful day for the
national pastime, and about 1000 people
attended the game between Los Angeles
and San Francisco at the Temple street
grounds. Many ladies graced the grand
stand with their presence. The visitors
were attired in gray uniforms, and the
home team looked neat in blue and
white.
Promptly at 2:30 Umpire Sheridan
called the game. The size of the ground
handicapped the play to some extent,
nevertheless it was one OF the prettiest
contests ever seen in Los Angeles. 1t
was full of life, and the spectators ap-
plauded freely. All the old time favor
ties were given a great ovation when
they stepped up to the plate. Los An
geles was the first to handle the willow.
They opened up in pennant winning
style, and scored one in the first ven
ture. San Francisco failed to make a
circuit of bases in their attempt. The
home team scored two in the second.
At the end of the fourth inning the
score stood 6 to in favor of Los Angeles,
and the spectators were iubilant. Good
plays followed one another in rapid sue
cession, and considering the unevenness
of the ground in certain places, errors
were few and far between.
At the end OF the seventh the Los
Angeles team looked all over the win
ners with the score 6 to 2 in their
favor. A big change came over the game
in the eighth inning. With two men on
bases, Knell knocked one of Carsey's
deceptive curves over the fence and
three tallies were added to the
score of the visitors. This was not
the end of the trouble. With
a man on base Dooley smashed
the leather on the right place and the
ball again went sailing over the fence.
1t was a beautiful drive and the baseball
cranks cheered Justify. At the end of
the eighth the score stood Z to 6 in favor
OF the visitors. The admirers of the
home team lost some of their hilarity,
but they were not without hope. The
game now depended on the ninth in
ming of the Los Angeles club, but the
home men failed to hit Knell at the
critical point and San Francisco won
creditable victory.
The same teams play again on Satur-
day and Sunday. The score:
