entered Tuesday night by thieves and goods
to the amount of several hundred dollars stol-

window of the tin shop by breaking light of
glass and from thence by the same style of
route to the store room. The plunder consist
ed mostly of knives, revolvers, etc. The mon
ey drawer was broken open and the safe tam
pered with but n } money was secured. There
is no clue but the officials are bending swivel
eyes on several wayward youths who have
been treading some distance from the path

A terrible, as we'll as needless slaughter,
occurred at Pine Ridge Agency, s. D., be-
tween Custer's old regiment, the 7th Cavalry,
and band of Indians under Big Foot's
command, a satellite of Sitting Bulls.
At 7:3O q. m. General Forsyth. commanded
the 150 Indians made prisoners to be brought
near the tents that he might speak to them,
at the same time ordering that they be dis
armed. Going to their tents they returned
sullenly with two still carrying their muskets.
The General suspected an outbreak and
signalled several companions to come nearer
Suddenly and without warning of any kind
the red skins each pulled musket from un-
der his cloak and fred into the cavalry,
Fully 100 shots were poured against the two
companies before they recovered and re-
turned storm of lead. Then began an
awful slaughter. The Indians returned to
the canyons fighting while the troops shot
them down in return, no quarter being Civ
en- on either side. This butchery was fol-
lowed until fully 70 Indians and 80 white men
were stretched on the earth killed, seriously
and fatally wounded.
Both Indians and whites in South Dakota
are in high pitch of excitement and war is
regarded by the most conservative as inevita-
