1t is a fact that Detroit, with u winning

because OF the S laday ball played In Tole-

distributed 10 members OF that tribe. tho
Indians arc several thousand dollars rich

much poorer.
Every Western Indian Is n lover Of
horses and an inveterate gambler. He Is
ready at any time to bet his last cent, his
horse, his tepee, squaw or anything Of
value that he may have.
The white men in tho towns about tho

longing to the Indians, and 1t has been
the habit to get up races with the Wnno-
bagoes and run in horse. from DIS
tance which was sure of capturing the
prize.
A race Of this character was gotten
up last week. and sporting men from
Sioux City came down with Pat Organ,

took first prize In all the county fair
races this fall. ORynn was known to
be faster than anything on the reserva-

The horse reached the reservation two

out and put into training Incidentally
he was given the name OF Bald Eagle,
SO that they stuck to their agreement
