Mrs. Billiard had a mood of her own

WILL HAVE A new WIGWAM.
The Local Red Men Preparing to Put
Up an Elegant Structure.
A Stock Company Formed-Proposed
Big Pow-Wow of Northern
Braves In May.

The Red Men of Sacramento are to have
new building. and they say that when
it is completed it viii be second to none
in the city, in point of elegance and de-
sign.
The necessity of new building was
made apparent by the growth of the or
der in this city, and the matter was
discussed for several months in the
various tribes, but no definite action
was taken until this week. 1t being
ascertained that the tribes were unit on
the subject, it was agreed that each should
appoint committee. and that that COM
mittee should meet and agree upon plan
of procedure.
There are four tribes in Sacramento
Red Jacket, Owosso, Costumes and Red
Cloud--and each selected three delegates.
These delegates met night before last. O..
n. Cronkite was elected Chairman and
Mr.. Grothen Secretary. After lengthy
conference the committees agreed that
| they should organize as the Red Mems
Hall Association and incorporate. The
| amount of the capital stock was not de-
cided upon, but it is said that it will be in
the neighborhood of 100000.
When the details are completed, each
tribe VIII be expected to subscribe as a
body for share of the stock. Aiterward
the individual members may subscribe
for as much stock as they choose 1t is
understood, however, that no stock will
be permitted TO go into the hands OF per-
sons other than Red Men. The site of
the proposed building will be agreed
upon as soon as possible, and the work of
construction will follow Immediately.
George E. Mitchell and Captain A.
Moger of Newcastle, and George W.
Armstrong OF Auburn, prominent Red
Men of Placer County, were in Sacra-
mento yesterday, endeavoring to induce
the local tribes to join in grand pow
WOW in Auburn on the 18th of May (St
Tammany's Day.. 1t is proposed to have
gathering of all the tribes in the north
ern part of the State. There are twelve
tribes who are expected to join in the
movement, including those of Marys-
vile, Grass Valley, Nevada City and
Dutch Flat, beside those of this CITY.
Newcastle and Auburn
Owosso Tribe has already expressed
itself as being highly in favor of the DOW
WOW, and there is no doubt that the other
three in this city will fall in line-at least
the opinions of the individual members
of those tribes who were seen by the Wis
iting committee yesterday would SO indi-

BRAUNSWEIGER'S STORY.
He Makes a Startling Statement If
Court Under Oath.
An Alleged Attempt to Settle a Case
The Cutting of Eberling Re-
lated Again.

The trial of Gustave Braunsweiger, the
German piano-player, who slashed
J. II. Eberling with knife in f. Gruhl-
er's saloon on K street in November last
and who is charged with assault to
murder-was commenced before acting
Superior Judge Prewett yesterday.
Grove l.. Johnson appeared for the de-
PENDANT and District Attorney Ryan con-
Quoted the prosecution. The jurors sworn
to try the case were: A. Popert, George
E. Kuchler, Frank Dupoister, Adam
Damn, B. c.. Trefry, E. Paddison. G. III.
Denton, w. II. Devine. w. H. Luther, f.
S. Hotchkiss. Daniel Foley and Louis
Lothhammer.
The evidence for the prosecution showed
that both Braunsweiger and Eberllng had
been drinking considerably. aud had a
row in the above-named saloon. Eber-
ling was ''guying" the defendant, W hen
the latter finally got mad, and, drawing a
knife, proceeded to make mincemeat of
the prosecuting witness.
BRAUNSwEIGER's STORY.
None of the testimony was of much in
terest until BTaunsweiger took the wit
ness-stand to testify in his own behalf
He is somewhat deaf and talks very
loudly and in broken English.
In answer to questions from his attor-
ney, Braunsweiger said that he had been
in Gruhler's saloon about three-quarters
of an hour before Eberling came in. The
latter had his hat on the back of his head,
like bully-like dot,' as the witness
illustrated it. Upon seeing Braunsweiger
he said, "Dere vas dot weller now" and
pointed scornfully at him. But Braun
sweiger said he kept his temper and said
nothing. Eberling continued to taunt
him, calling him ''bum,' and saying he
was mo goot." Finally, said Braun
sweiger, be could stand it no longer,
''unt hit him in de yaw.n Eberling
seized chair and defendant then went
for him with his knife.
"Why did you draw your knife3n asked
Attorney Johnson.
