year.
The records Of the Dawes Com
mission ale supposed to contain
the names Of all the Indians in the
i've civilized tribes and it is mole
than probable that the Indian

received was in the form of circu-
lar which has been sent to thee other
agents throughout the country.
The census will show an increase
in people of Indian descent or mix
ed bIoods and a decrease of the full
bloods.

population Of Indian Territory to
be approximately 500, 900 Of which
1000 are Indians.
This will be the first census Of
tae Indians ever taken independent
of the rest Of the population of the
country

tain the names of all the Indians Of
the FIVE civilized tribes with the

From J.B. Dickinson Of Sulphur
it is learned that a company head
ed by Col. Ed c. Dunham, has let
a contract for the sinking Of FIVE
wells on laud FIVE miles south OF

PROTEST AGAINST THE
"N0-SAL00N" ORDINANCE
Local Foreign Societies Hold Monster
Mass Meeting at Turner
Hall

The advantages Of personal liberty"
over prohibition were ably set forth
by four speakers in as many different
languages at the meeting held in Tur-
ner hail. on South Main street, last
night, under the auspices of the Ger
man-American alliance Of Los Ange-
les.
And while the audience was largely
composed Of German people there was
fair representation from nearly ev-
cry foreign colony in Los Angeles.
Scattered throughout the hall were
also to be seen numerous women,
whose keen interest was evinced
throughout the meeting by joining in
the hearty applause and hand-clap-
ping. Excellent vocal music was rem
dered by the two German singing So
cieties, the Turnverein- -Germania and
the Fredalia, under the direction of
Prof. l.. Thomas. The music was in
truth a special feature and the rem
dering of some familiar song in the
mother tongue the signal for much
applause.
The president Of the alliance, Fred
Detmer, called the meeting to order.
He explained that the alliance is not
a political nor sectarian society, but
that its members are strongly opposed
to any such costly experiments as the
one now proposed In Los Angeles. He
protested against the closing of near
ly 200 places of business, which would
throw 1000 men out of employment
and result in hardships for their fam
lilies. He then introduced DIR. Joseph
kurtz who addressed the audience in
the German tongue.
The doctor ridiculed the idea of hav-
ing to eat three hot meals every day
in order to get little beer and adj
vised his hearers to join the California
this obnoxious provision of the law.
But the proposed legislation, he con-
tended, would not only work hard
ship on the poor man, but on the law
yer and the doctor as well. The ques-
ton. he said, is not one of politics, or
morals, or religion, but only of who
is the stronger. He compared the peo-
pie of Germany with those of other
countries. where no attempt is made
at prohibition, eulogizing the many
excellent qualities and traits of the
German people over all such.
DRY Sundays" declared DIR. Kurtz,
produce more drunks and criminal
cases, and hence require more officers
of the law than any Others"
Ammaury Mars made an address in
French. The next onslaught against
the prohibitionists came from the
Italian quarters and was led by Carlo
Abbrotti, editor of local Italian pa
per. Judge Morris, formerly mayor
of Omaha, was introduced and spoke
at some length.

THIRTEEN-YEAR-0LD BOY
BITTEN BY MAD DOG
Vicious Canine Causes Panic In the
Neighborhood of Twenty. Third
and San Pedro Streets

A mad dog running at large near
Twenty-third and San Pedro streets
started panic among number of
persons living in that neighborhood
yesterday.
The dog, a spitz of large size, is
said to have been a familiar figure
around the corner of Twenty-third and
San Pedro streets for the past two
months. He is said to have shown an
amiable disposition to all passers-by
until yesterday afternoon, when sew
eral people living in the neighborhood
he seemed to be i'll tempered and dis
played his teeth to two or three women.
Late in the afternoon he frightened a
number of school children as they were
returning from school by running after
them, growing and swapping at their
heels, but not until about o'clock last
evening did he actually bite anyone.
Clifford Wilcut, thirteen years old, of
$40 East Twenty Third street, was play
ing in the street with one of his friends,
and while racing down the sidewalk,
the dog suddenly jumped from the curb
ing and sank his teeth deep into the
boys right leg just above the knee.
Clifford gave cry of pain and kicked
frantically at the frenzied dog. After
fierce struggle, he succeeded in free
ing himself.
A number of the neighbors, hearing
the boys cries, rushed to his assist
ance, but before anyone could reach his
side, the dog was scurrying down the
street.
The boy was hurried to the receiving
hospital, where his wounds were dressed
by Police Surgeon Freedman. After a
careful examination, the physician de-
clared he believed there is no danger
of rabies, and the boy was allowed to
go home with his father.

FALLS VICTIM OF
BRUTAL MURDER
LAB0RER IS FOUND WITH A
CHASTITY WOUND IN HEAD
BELIEVED MOTIVE ROBBERY
Pockets Of the Dead Mans Clothing
Turned Wrong Side Out and
His Money All
Gone

The dead body of Frank A. Amey OF
S11 Alpine street was found upon the
sidewalk on Grand avenue, about 100
feet north of Sunset boulevard, at 10
o'clock last night, and indications are
that he was murdered. A gaping wound
in his forehead showed the cause of
death, but nothing was found which
would shed any light upon the manner
In which 1t was inflicted.
j. 3. Beaudry stumbled over the
form of the man as he was walking to
his home, and, thinking the man was
drunk, showed him aside and called
upon him to get up, but received no
response.
Striking a match, he examined the
man and found that life was extinct.
Beaudry called the police and told
them of finding the body.
The police are convinced that Amey
was murdered and are investigating
with the slight clew they have.
AS the light of the match shone on
the mans face, Beaudry declares that
he gave one long gasp and died.
The police were summoned at once.
but before the detectives arrived Pa
trolman Cooper went to the assistance
of Beaudry and a hurried examination
of the surroundings was made. A
stone the size of an ostrich egg was
found close to the side of the dead
man and another one of similar size
was found lying in the street few
feet away.
Capt. Bradish's Statement
Captain Bradish, after making a
thorough examination, said:
II believe that Amey met with foul
play and the purpose of the murderer
or murderers was robbery. His pockets
were turned wrong side out and two
handkerchefs, evidently pulled from
his pockets, were found beneath the
body"
"The wound in Amey's forehead indi-
Gates that he was struck by some blunt
instrument, such as the butt end of n
revolver or an iron bar. l do not be-
lieve that the stone found lying close
to the body of the man was used to
infict the wound, which caused his
death, but was probably used by the
person or persons who robbed him for
the purpose of rendering him uncon-
scious."
1t Is thought that Amey was walking
to his home, S11 Alpine street, and as
he passed the dark area OH Grand
avenue he was struck from behind by
someone who threw the stone at him
from behind nearby telephone pole.
After knocking him down, it is thought
that the robbers were searching his
clothes, when their victim offered re-
sistance and to quiet him the blow in
the middle of his forehead was struck
either with revolver or an iron bar.
Letters identifying the dead man were
found in his clothes, but he had no
money when searched by the police. In
one of his pockets was a newspaper
clipping referring to Thomas Amey,
supposed to be his brother, who was
shot and killed by his divorced wife in
Bakersfield, October 16, of last year.
Amey was about forty years old and
a laborer, having at one time driven the
chain gang wagon for the city.
