STREET LIFE AMONG THE HINDoos.

STREET LIFE AMONG THE HINDOOs.
The natives are very much wrought
up by something that has occurred. 1t
does not take a great deal to excite
crowd of Hindoos, especially If they
are engaged in worship. Any indiS-
nifty to their god or the mosque here
in every object Is sacred 10 them,
whether the insult Is real or fancicd,
will bring them around like a swarm
Of bees. eager for the blood Of the
tranSgrrssor.
Mynheer Joe knows this full WELL
and Judging from the eXcltable con
ltion Of the crowd. fears that his
friends have been unwise in doing
something.
The Hindoos cease to advance. This
word, spoken in their native tongue,
tells them that the other is Il master
His personality is great, He checks
their desire to reach out their hands
and clutch their intended victims.
Eager dark faces, shining out from
under varicolorcd turbans greet the
view, some bcared. others smooth.

focused intently upon one point, and

He holds them rs if by some magic.

Then he selects one who seems to be
more intelligent than his fellows, AS

They push him forward as spolicS
man, Il position he is eminently fitted
to fill.
1T is plain. 1t is simple We Were
worshiping in our temple before Wish.
M. No man darcs enter there with

is Il deadly insult TO our god. We
burn to avenge it. We chase the In,
@lcSc here. We demand satisfaction,
ViShnu will have revenge. Their
blood must wipe out the insult. That
is all
Murmurs of applause arise as the
cd HindOo finishes his little speech
Aiynheer Joe sees that it is as he
feared These people must be handled
with gloves in all that pertains to their
religion.
Now hear me. You are fair and
just. 1t is only right both sides should

Sandy to explain, which that worthy
! does in an excited manner. accom-
panying his words with gestures
The traveller smiles, for he sees the
situation Is not so bad as he feared.
He speaks to Demosthenes Tanner,
who eagerly agrees to his proposition.

proceeds to get his friends out Of this

Sioux City, Dec. 28.-Estimates by
insurance men are to the effect that
big fire will be from 81 800, 900 to $2,-
100000 The records are still in such
shape that a comprehensive statement
of insurance losses by companies can
not be furnished.
The feeling now is that really
greater Sioux City will grow out of the
ashes. The fire may have the effect
of driving business north of Fourth
street and converting the property
south OF Fourth street into railroad
and wholesale property. The heaviest
losers by the fire will hold meeting
