from their leader they seized the guns
of the fort and proceeded to kill off all
the officers and a new regiment of SOL
diers recently arrived. In the midst of
the massacre magazine exploded and
all hands were blown to pieces.

Two batta!ions must have been wiped
out of existence, as not soldier lived

shells, $1,000 pounds of powder was
stored in the powder room. One com.

tage of her trip to Paris by securing several
costumes from Daucet.
The company embraces the names of

prominent of which are Ben. f. Grinelle,
Charles Fostelle, Charles Cameron, Lindsay
Morrison, Harry Dickerson, j. Henry
Mack, Frank Hayden. the Nichols sisters,
Mabel and Lulu; Lillian Knott, Fannie
