THE w. C. COUP ENCHANTED
ROLLING PALACE,
Museum, Aquarium and Auditorium.
500 feet long.
The Newest, Grandest, Most Novel, Interesting and
Wonderful Exhibition ever Conceived.
Nothing like il ON Earth.

At this writing (Dec. Gth) this Novel
Exhibition has been less than three (3)
weeks before the people and has more than
realized the most sanguine expectations OF
its protector. Its vast halls have been
packed at every stopping place. II is the
only exhibition that ever gave entertain-
ments in or places each day; in fact i.
is complete innovation, and in this short
time it has been found necessary TO add
two more halls in order to- accommodate the
vast crowds who flock 10 see its myriads of
wonders. 1t Is "iiteral" Palace on
Wheels, filled with wond srs from earth,
air and sea, such rare curiosities and scien-
tific wonders as can be transported in no
other way. The entire 2aat9ee is heated
by steam and magRiaceRtiy lighted by
hundreds Of the most beautifully varie-
gated electric lights.
We give below evidences of its merits.
They are the voices of the people who
have visited US and speak for themselves.
In addition to these l am permitted to add
Il message from the superintendent of the
Manager of the w. G. CoUP Exhibition
If you return over our line l will guarantee
: GU will do three (3) times the business
you did c0:ng down as have never seen
people SO en- husiastic, but you must have
more room 10 accommodate the crowds"

NASHVlLLE'O PRIDE.

Mr. EDITOR Have you been to
Nashville lately? If you have, you
have no doubt seen the Great New
Store. Truly the march of progress
is wonderful.
Who would have thought a few
years ago that there would be estab-
lishnd in the South such a CONNER
cial house as that of the CONNELL-
HALL-AICLESTERC Co, of Nashville?
To lady going to Nashville, this
concern is n blessing indeed.
She can get off the ears at the Union
Depot, take hack or sire car and
20 at once to the door of this great
store, where a coy reception room
with dreSSing-rOom and toilet-roOn
are at her service. Her baggage ana
bundles may be checked, and she can
then go wherever she may choose
about the house or the city, without
being encountered with luggage. II
the weather is bad, and lady goes
70 the city only TO shop, she need not
leave the great store at all.
Every sort OF goods in the greatest
variety is kept in the house, and al

in plan figures; and there she can

INDICATIONS OF A BATTLE.
But IT VIII Not lie Between the HOstiIes
and the Troops.


OMAHA, Jan. IA WOrld-Herald spe-
cial from Pine Ridge Tuesday, said:
Everything now points to a battle and
disastrous one. However, it will not
be between the troops and the hOstiles,
but between the hOstiles and the friend
lies who desire to leave the hostile camp
and come into the agency.
Red Cloud has signified his desire to
return to the agency, but he is nearly
blind and no one viii volunteer to lead
him in, for the Brulez threaten death to
the first person that attempts to desert
the hostile band, This is causing
trouble. The old Indians want to come
in, but the young bucks insist III fight
ing.
The bands of the Indians are fast
losing strength. The claim about Ghost
Shirt being bullet-prOof, has caused the
Indians to think the peace is more
desirable than war, The Gordon of
the hostiles. This is shown by the dis
covery. less than a mile frOme Pine
Ridge, of a bunch of cows shot with
arrows. Evidently the Indians are try
ing to cut off small body of soldiers to
get arms and ammunition.
The hostiles are ON guard day and
night Fires are being burned at night
to prevent any one from escaping from
their camps. mGro especially Red Cloud :
band Gen, Miles has sent a peace COM
mission to the hostiles. If they still re-
fuse to come in their camp viii be bonn

Machine and shell guns are being
placed On all sides of the camp, and al

shells md canister can be showered
into the Indian camp. This means utteI
humiliation to the Indians if the order
comes. Gen. Miles is fast becoming i'm
patient, and if the Indians do not obey
this last order a bloody battle of eXter-
minatiOn will then be begun,
