Chief Hennemann made a clever cap

have netted him a neat sum.
The man, who was locked up that
evening under the name of Charles
Hamilton, came to Keokuk that day and
went to job printing house. where he
had number of blank contracts struck
off. He then went out on the street, rep
resenting himself to be the advance
agent of the Forepaugh- Sells shows. He
visited number of merchants and
made contracts with them to supply
provisions to the circus, which he said
would appear here soon.
After banking hours he represented
that he was short of money and induced
number of merchants. with whom he
had negotiated, to advance him a small
loan. He made memorandum of it OF
the back of the contract he had made
with the merchant and assured the lat.

INDIAN MEDICINE DANCE.
[Sioux City Journal. 18TH

lSioux City Journal, 13th.l
Heap Big Medicine Man" and all the
young braves of the Winnebago Indian
agency who have been initiated into the
hidden mysteries ofsthe black arts of the
red men for the last thirty-six hours
have been holding high carnival at the
reservation, dancing the medicine dance
and barking out the weird chants over
the arrival of bunch of young bucks
at the proper age to be taken into their
order
OF all the peace dances which are
known to the terpsichorean masters of
the Indians the medicine dance is the
most varied and interesting. 1t is strict
ly religious service in nature if not in
appearance, and young Indians being
taken into the order of Medicine Men
are there taught the mystic properties
of the medicine bag. pouch of furred
skin, Enthusiastically arranged with col
ored beads and feathers and containing
odd trinkets, the curative properties of
which are good for anything from a
lame back to a lost soul.
On flag pole hill, in the center of the
reservation, where all Indian demon
STATIONS take place, has been erected a
long, low wigwam, in which the dance
was started at shutdown Saturday, con-
tinued all day yesterday and is still in
progress.
AS one approaches the scene of the
dance the big hill, crowned with the low
tent, presents strange appearance.
About 200 ramshackle farm wagons
which have conveyed the families of In
dams to the gathering are scattered over
10 Ia Of Iao tba,
Indian ponies or couple of mules are
tethered near each wagon; and few
squaws and pappooses are generally to
temporary camp.
The noise of the pow-wow can be
heard quarter Of mile away, the dull
sound of the tom-toni rising above the
monotone chants of the Indians. Just
outside of the tent groups of Indians
play at cards, match their ponies (and
at times their squaws) in races or join
in game of Indian base ball, which Is
played something like lacrosse. But
within the canvas is the main show.
The costumes of the dancers vary
from one OF elaborate beaded vests and
trousers to another of trunks and feath-
ers, the skin always showing generous
supply OF red, green and yellow paint
daubed on in streaks and patches. Thus
arrayed the Indians crouch and caper in
circle in the wigwam about a trio of
old Indians who lead the singing and
beat time on the loose drum heads of
the tom-toms.} AS to what they are say
ing and what 1t is all about, 1t is hard
for an outsider tounderstand. but to one

Margaret Crawford Sued Peter
Con|on for Damages for As
sauIt--NeW Trial Denied.

The Appellate division Of the Supreme
court refurses In a rescript hsndned down
today In the case of Margaret Crawford
VS.. Peter Conlon to grant new trial on
the ground OF inadeauacy OF damages.
A jury awarded the plaintiff s. in suit
brought 10 recover damages for alleged
assault and battery.
The court in the rescript says: THE
evidence shows that she interviewed be-
tween two men who had themselves in
tervsned between two dogs who we're
fghting I'm the street
THE evidence was conflicting as 20 the
amount Of force which she suffered from
the defendant. Evidently her own inn
prudence justifed some force TO repel her
and may well have been considered by
the Jury - the cause OF her injury.
There was also conflicting evidence as 10
the amoSnt OF damage which she actually
suffered and the jury may have consider
ed her own account TO have been exag
gerated.
Taking all the circumstances into con-
sideration we are unable 10 say that the
verdict is Inadequate. While punitive
damages may be given by Jury I'm such
a case. the assessment OF them rests in
the discretion. The whole question was
left 10 the jury under proper instructions
from the court as We see no reason 10
