CUSTER'S LAST CHARGE
COLONEL CODY's MAsTERLY RE
PRODUCTION OF THE BATTLE
ON THE LITTLE BIG HORN.

In addition to its many other entirely
original and remarkable features on
Friday May 13, ait Front and Union
streets, Buffalo Bill's Wild West and
Congress of Rough Riders Of the
World will present here, for the first
time, an immense, magnificent and
amazingly realistic spectacular and
tableau reproduction Of Clusters last
and dreadfully fatal battle on the Lit
tie Big Horn. In this stupendous and
life-like revival Of the heroic and har-
rowing incidents of the most calami-
tOus event in all the sanguinary records
Of border warfare some eight hundred
soldiers, scouts, plainsmen, genuine
Sioux warriors and horses are intro
duced, some OF the savage participants
having actually been present at the
Custer massacre, and the horses being
taught to most realistically simulate
death ON the battlefield. The opening
scene reveals an Indian village with its
inhabitants wildly celebrating a recent
victory. While they are thus engaged
scout takes in the situation without
being discovered and reports to General
Custer, who instantly and furiously
charges with his battalion upon the red
devils. Terribly mistaken as to the
number OF the foe, his command is en-
velOped in an overwhelming horde OF
sayages. and after a desperate but hope
less struggle annihilated, the closing
tableau representing his death on an
eminence, to which he and the remnant
Of his command are driven. Colonel
Cody, with reinforcements, arrives on
The field of massacre and desolation too
late to be Of service. The opportunities
afforded for heroic action and all the
electrifying displays Of mounted COM
bat are fully utilized and the result is
beyond description.

OF INTEREST TO CYCLISTS.

RECEPTION.
Rational Costumes-Motor Cycles
Rubber Trade-The Five Mile
Paced Match.

The wheel has brought on the dress
debate again in England. 1t is now
knickerbockers VS.. skirts, or divided
skirts and boomers VS.. long SklrtS-
The latter appear to have few friends,
and the rational dress is getting the
best of the contest for riders and Wo-
men who engage in outing sports. 1t
has been proved in this country that
q circular or gored skirt made close
fitting at the hips and about eight
inches from the ground is pretty,
modest length; will not blow, and Will
not catch in the wheel or chain even
when a guard is not used. The TACT
is that most English and German cy-
clists who wear skirts wear them TOO
long an awkward and dangerous
length 1t is no more possible to make
q skirt that will be suitable for riding
the wheel and at the same time fall to
the regular walking length than it is
to make a habit which will be suitable
for both horseback riding and shop
ping.
Touring clubs are fast growing in
popularity abroad. Nearly 1000 new
Rccessions are reported by the Touring
Club de France alone in the month OF
May.
A motor car race between the cities
of Brussels and Liege is scheduled tc
take place this month. Much feeling
has developed between the prospective
contestants and the race will be a warm
one.
Motor cycles are not allowed on Paris
cycle paths. Their use is restricted to
streets and roads alone for reasons Of
safety. Many of them have proven un-
controlable, hence the prescription.
1t is estimated that of the 1000 BIZ
cycles sold in Spain last year nearly
half were of American manufacture.
That was possibly what induced them
to thinking they could override US on
their excellent mounts.
The importation of crude rubber into
the United Kingdom of Great Britain
last year exceeded 10000 tons. Nearly
five-eighths Of this quantity or about
1900 tons are said to have been con-
verted into bicycle tires.
The Capital City Wheelmen have
their fourth race meet Monday after
noon, July 4th, beginning at p. III.
sharp. Tonight the club receives the
