SITTING BULL AT THE SHOW
How He nnd His warriors We're
Scared Out Of a Dakota Variety

How He and His warriors We're
Scared Out Of a Dakota Variety
81 Show.
Fifteen years ago times were lively
in Dakota, and Fargo was a booming
town Of 1900 people. Half a dozen
theatrical enterprises were in full blast,
and a seventh manager opened a new
house, the magnifcence Of which far
outshone those Of it's competitors. The
theater was to be opened Monday
evening, and that morning, says a wri-
ter in Kate Fields Washington, the
train from the west brought the great
Sioux chief, Sitting Bull, with small
party of Indians who were Ell route to
Washington to interview the great
father. The new manager secured the
attendance of the warriors for the
opening of his house, and the hundreds
of 'tenderfeet'' who had never vet seen
real Indian in war paint paid fabu-
lous prices for seats
Sitting Bull and his warriore were on
hand early, gaudily arrayed in feathers,
headdress, beaded blankets and wan
pun. They were seated at the end Of
the center aisle in the space between
the orchestra railing and the front row
Of parquet. The, red men preserved
their monumental stOicism, and
throughout the entertainment not
smile wrinkled their faces. Each one
Of them carried a short painted stick,
one end Of which was split. Into the
split was thrust small piece of look
ingglass. Occasionally the Indians held
the mirror up before their eyes and
took a careful survey Of the audience
behind them. This enabled them to see
what was going on all over the house
without shifting their position. The
closing feature of the programme was
an act performed by female trapeZe
performer, who was advertised to pos
sess wonderful strength in her jaws.
The stage manager announced that she
would hang suspended from the ira
peZe bar by her knees and support
was discharged. At sight Of the cannon
Sitting Bull and his men began to show
signs Of uneasiness. They shifted about
in their seats nervously. Two men
lifted the cannon and left it dangling
from the woman's jaws. The muzzle
of the weapon swung on level with
the Indians headdress. HI
Sitting Bull and his warriors by this
time had become extremely nervous.
They looked at each other inquiringly,
as if suspecting that they had been
drawn into a trap and were to be de-
iberately slaughtered. They jabbered
to each other excitedly, and two or
three times SO far forgot their stoicism
as to look over their shoulders. Finally,
everything was in readiness; the stage
manager stepped back, gave the string
that he held a jerk, there was flash
and roar, and out Of the cloud Of
smoke that shot into the parquet Sitting
Bull and his warriors sprang, wildly
shouting as they made their way down
the aisle, striking madly right and left
with the long-stemmed stone pipes
which they carried. No attempt was
made by the audience to stop the In
dams, who made their way outside and
didn't stop running until they reached
the hotel. For once the fearless chief
Of the Sioux was unnerved.

A SHOCKING STORY.

A Frightfu1 Tale OF Superstition In
Far Away Florence.
Scarcely day now passes without
some new shocking story Of supersti-
ton. The worst one recently has come
from the suburbs Of Florence, where
lives peasant whose daughter suffers
from violent attacks of hysteria, says
the New York Sun. Saying masses
proving Of no avail, the priest told the
father that the only cure was at the
hands of some one having power to ex-
orcise evil spirits, and sent him to q
famous sorceress in nearby village
The father and daughter paid the old
woman what she demanded. Her house
was dark, and the sorceress told hes
guests to follow her and kneel in every
room they entered. The bowling that
went on in every room was dreadful
The peasant and his daughter were

With this advice the pair went home,
and the parent kindled the fire as di-

night, but no one knocked. At break

| 1T seems that they are bad men, =
| said Yanko. Il cannot do anything.
You had better tell, or they will hurt
you"
''Well!.Are you going to tell?' roared
the ruffian, twisting Johnny's arm.
Johnny pluckily held his tongue,
though he looked piteously at me, and
set up a howl, at which the robber
boxed his ears. Upon this Johnny's
howl changed into a series Of piercing
shrieks, and he dropped on his back on
the floor, and kicked rs only mule or
an angry boy can.
The robber began to stuff a piece OF
! cloth into Johnny's mouth, calling his
companion to help him. Then, as l
rusned up and tried to pull Johnny out
Of their hands, he shouted at Yanko,
why do you stand there like an idiot
Keep that child away
Yanko now drew me- me ava; away, SAYING ~
Don't go near them, Willie. They
might hurt you, for they are very cross.
They are very bad men,"
In a moment the men finished tying
the, cloth over Johnny's mouth, and
left him gurgling on the floor. Then
the chief rascal turned to me and said,
Nov, you young scoundrel, we VIII
4 have no more nonsense. !"
It was now my turn to give a wild
yell. But Yanko quickly slipped one
hand over my mouth, at the same time
saying, Don't be foolish, Willie Tell

ARGENTINE REVOLUTION.
Radical Leaders Handcuffed and
Imprisoned.

IH1pflSOneu.
BU ENos AYREs, Sept. 21.-The revo-
luton in Argentine is spreading, and
affairs have assumed most alarming
aspect. Several of the Radical leaders,
accused of plotting with the army Off
GERS, have been arrested, and sent hand
cuffed on board one of the government
irOncladS, where it is said they will be
Spiracy, and if convicted will be shot.
Full particulars regarding the Argen-
tine revolution are not obtainable, as
the newspapers are forbidden to publish
any information concerning it.
Engagements between the govern
ment forces and the insurgents IN the
province of Tucuman have taken place,
aud the former have undoubtedly been
defeated.
Ex-President Pelligrini. at 2 O'Clock
this morning, placed himself at the
head of 1,500 troops of all arms, en-
barked the troops on trains, and left for
Tucuman, where it Is now said state
OF anarchy prevails.
Pelllgrini is determined at all haz-
ards to pacify Tucuman.
Cordova is reported to be quiet, but
the governor of Cordova has received
tlonal guard of that province, and this
force would probably be reinforced by
many more men.
The Argentine war Office has sent
Gen. La Vale to Mendoza AMI Cor
dova.
Among other things it is asserted that
the rebels are now threatening Santiago
del Estero, capital OF the province of
Santiago del EStero, on the Rio Dulce.

six warships, three torpedo boats, many
tugs. transports and launches. All of
them are well proyiSioned. The British
legation intends to file claim against
the Brazilian government for cutting off
cable communication. Mail advices re-
eeiyed here state that President Peixoto
knew ten days ago that his defeat was
inevitable. He defed the revolutionists
only because the ministry so advised
him. 1t is reported that the state of Sac
PauIo has declared i'll favor of the reb-
els. All indications now point to their
success. 1t has been learned that the
rebel warship Republica and four gun
boats have put to sea. Their destina-

CoNTRIBUToRY NEGLIGENCE.
Investigation OF the Cause of
James Tobin's Death.


Yesterday morning Coroner Spring
and jury undertook an Investigation
into the cause of the accident by which
James Tobin. an employe of tue tele-
phone company, came to his death
Wednesday. The testimony developed
the fact that the accident was caused
by the crossing Of telephone and an
electric light wire; that the crossing
was due to the fact that operations had
been commenced to remove a pole be-
longing to the fire alarm, which permit
ted the electric wire to come in contact
with the telephone wire. E. w. Lam
bert, assistant superintendent of the
fire alarm, said that Manager Christie,
of the telephone company, had been
notified of the condition of the pole, but
this MIR. Christie denies.
The jury returned a verdict to the
effect that death was caused by an over
charged or live wire of the Minneapolis
Telephone exchange. and that that COM
pany and the Minneapolis fire alarm
telegraph were contributory to the
cause. The funeral of the deceased
will take place this morning from the
home of his father, in Northeast Min

KETTLE RIVER SANDSTONE
ITS USE IN THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY
Bull DING.
GooDNow,s ADVOCACY OF 1T.


Founded Upon the Fact That
He Is Interested in the Kettle
River Quarry - Regent Owen
Talks He Says the Building
Requires Light-CoIored Stone
The decision of the board of regents
to use Ohio stone in the new university
library building was the subject of
uch comment in Minneapolis yester-
day. The criticism on the action of the
board was mostly of an adverse charac-
ter. Regent S. NJ. Owen took differ
ent view. He says that the reason why
it was voted to use the Ohio stone is the
fact that is the stone which is best
suited to the. style of architecture
adopted for the building. The struc-
ture, ,'he says. is modelled after the Par
thenon at Athens, in fact, 1t is of the
exact proportions of that classic
editice. Light colored stone, all
architects agree, is the only kind
admissible in building of that kind.
Mr.. Owen says that, as a matter of fact,
the building should be constructed of
white marble, and that this could be
done for an additional cost of 500
The stone selected is something like
that used in the Minneapolis Masonic
temple, only ii is little more cream
color. MIR. Owen is certain that when
the matter is understood and the build
ing erected the choice of the board will
be ratified with great unanmity.
Mr.. Burlington. the architect of the
building, takes the same ground as does
Regent Owen. lie goes farther and says
that money will be saved by using the
Ohio stone rather than the Kettle River
article, the use of which was urged
upon the hoard by Samuel Hill
directly. and by John Goodnew indi-
rectly.
Mr.. Burlington insinuates that the
anxiety OF these gentlemen TO have Ket-
tie river stone used is founded. not so
much upon the fact that it is a Mime
sofa article, as upon tine fact that they
are interested in the Kettle river quarry;
that they do not care so much for archi-
tectural effects as they do for financial
results.
This is q serious accusation to bring
against the guileleSS GoodnOw. In view
of his ardu0uS labOrS in favor of protec-
tinn to home industry in the last cam
paign, it must be admitted that it is
rather unkind.
