A band Of Cree Indians woke up one

dog scented the Crees and began Rrowl-

then instantly entered the cave. In
about ten seconds another Piegan came
around the rocks and also went in; then
another and another and another, there
being but few seconds between them.
The .Crees lay silently in the buShes

and gone into the cave, and still they
kept coming. What seemed repark-

and, most remarkable of All, each one
seemed little lame in the left foot,
linping slightly.
"Tliey were a gaudy crowd, and the
Crees counted 20 of them. The super

over the ice to Investigate. On approach

to find it was no cave at all, but simply

the rock, where it made a turn and came

marching through the streets Of this
city, led by six violinists, with two or
three violas, fiddle in size between
the ordinary violin and the violoncello.
Nearly all the other instruments were
reed, hageolets and aclarionets, with an
occasional French horn. 2 The big ut
traction of the band for street parades
was chime of bells, which were. carried
on n big stick above the players head.
He shook them as the band marched
along and made great deal Of noise

and snares, were more in evidence as
features than they are now. The Ma
