'Hi, Hi, Hi, Whoop!" and band of
Sioux Indians covered. with war paint
and their long hair decked with eagle
feathers, burst into the arena of the
Forepaugh Fish Wild West shows at
Twenty sixth street and Blaisdell avenue
this afternoon and tore madly around the
enclosure on their active ponies Another
series Of ear-splitting yells and more red
painted warriors lined up in front Of the
reserved seats while the cowboy band
kept the savage hordes shouting in uni
son to the melody of stirring march.
That was the opening here of the Wild
West show which came to this city high

ganization Of its character in the United
States. In quick succession came Sioux,
Ogallalla Cheyenne, Brule and other

MABEL's UNIQUE REVENGE
Introduces Chaos into a Household
to Get Even.

Mabel Anderson Of Winona was in the
municipal court this morning charged with
turning all the furniture upside down in
her sisters home in New Boston. She ex-
planned that she had done it to get even
with the roomers and that she ac-
complished her aim and was willing
to pay for her fun. One Of the
roomers, she said, accused her of
stealing her room key, and as long as she
was already in a bad light anyway, she
thought it good plan to finish the job
and be avenged. Securing a passkey, she
overturned the furniture in all the rooms
in order to be sure of the right one.
Ethel Anderson, the sister, told the
court that her object in having Mabel ar
rested was that she might be sent home to
her parents. The girl came here on a
visit about a year ago and refused to go
home. She seems to be slightly demented
at times and has done nothing but make
trouble during her stay here. Mabel pro-
ferred home to the workhouse and was re-
leased.

When Her Mother Took the
Trail.

When Mrs. James McNu1ty rushed into po-
lice headquarters Saturday night to enlist Of
fetal aid in preventing her 16-year-old daughters
supposed elopement, the young lady was already
married. Saturday morning, Harry Munro Sc
cured a Hennepin marriage license to wed Anna
McNulty and about 8 O'Clock in the afternoon
the seekers after marital bliss were married by
Judge Elliott.
The wedding was very much against the wish
es of the brides parents, but the young people
decided that they knew best. They are be-
lieved to have INDUCED in no extensive wedding
trip, but might possibly have been found by the
anxious mother last Saturday night in a much
nearer place than Chicago. AS to the daugh-
ter's being but is years of age, the subject is
naturally delicate one, but the age given on
the license register is than that.
