FUN IN SMOKY CITY.
Pittsburg Halloween Carnival Fills
Streets with Merry Reve1ers.

P1TTSBURG, Nov. l. = Erstwhile
clowns, chorus girls, policemen, con-
victs and football players thronged the
streets of this city last night in the
celebration of Pittsburg's annual car
nival Halloween. From building to
building the streets about the city were
jammed with the thousands of revel-
ers and merrymakers, and the carnival
was one of license and liberty with no
police restrictions beyond destruction
Of property or personal injury.
So great was the crowd to which the
city had been given over that street
car lines temporarily suspended traf
tic, and the driving Of team or aht5,
mobile was not to be thought of. The
usual clouds of smoke and fog that
load the atmosphere at this tine of
year were forgotten in the showers of
confetti thrown from all sides.
Men, women and children alike took
part in the carnival. appearing in all
conceivable grotesque costumes. In
the fashionable east end the various
merchants organizations held an in
dustrial and carnival parade, one of
the features in that section.
Until after midnight the din of horns,
cowbells and rattles kept up, while the
streets bore the appearance of a varie-
gated snowfall with the confetti ankle

brief but forcible address. combining
himself chiefly TO the great question
of rate legislation aud its bearing on

was well received, and he WAS inter-

he lacked nothing in force in defend.

ing illustrations to drive home his
points. He brought home to the
voters of Berkeley county the import
anoe of continuing the repub leans in
power in the national congress "
telling of tire relations between the
republican policv and the lime
stone industry here-how the great
steel and tin Mate industries which

He aalso spoke of the relationship

SKIRMISH WITH UTES
Renegades Recover Captured
Ponies From Troops.
GREATLY OUTNEMBERED OUR MEN.
Crows md Cheyennes Reported on
Warpath Ready to Join RebeIIious
Red Men-Indinn Guides Are
Charged with Treachery.

SHERIDAN, Wyo., Nov. la slIir-
mish has occurred on Bitter creek be-
tween band Of the renegade Ute In
dams and a troop Of the Tenth caval-
ry, according to word brought by a
special courier.
The troops had captured fifty Ute
ponies, severely frightening five In
dian herders, and as the troopers were
driving away the ponies 100 Utes, full.
~ armed, surrounded the cavalrymen
and the ponies, stampeding the ponies
with revolver shots and war whoops.
The Indians recovered all the ponies
but five that were killed by the troops
in an effort to stop the stampede.
The Indians did not fire at the SOL
diers. The soldiers desisted from at
lacking the Utes, as the reds greatly
outnumbered the troopers.
Troopers say that, as far as they
can ascertain from rumor and observa-
ton, the Indians will fight with little
proyocation.
Another detachment of the Tenth
cavalry from Sheridan ran across a
wandering band Of 100 Crow Indians
under command of Chief Sweet Mouth
The troopers drove the Crows back to-
ward their agency. The Crows said
that they were hunting and denied any
intention of joining the Utes.
Still another squad of the Tenth cav
airy fell in with band of Cheyenne
Indians, who, on representation that
they were hunting, were allowed to go
in peace.
The settlers charge that Indian guides
employed BY the federal troops are
acting etreacherously and leading the
troops on false trails to keep the sol.
diers from oyertaking the Utes. These
settlers mention among the willy scouts
Woman's Dress. American Horse and

Roosevelt received today the pleasing but

be abolished and universal health and
happiness to be produced almost instant
Iy by an attorney residing on the Pacific
Coast. The information came in letter
notifying the President TO be on his
guard and to watch carefully for the

Unfortunately for humanity the lawyer
does not state how he will bring about
this miraculous change, but he promises
to disclose the great secret in his next
communication TO Mr.. Roosevelt.
The first great step in the great re-
form will be to deprive the rich au-
tocracy" OF America of its enormous
wealth and to divide it equally among
all the people. All public utilities and
the wealth produced from mines and for
est will be used for the benefit of the
whole people. Homes will be provided
for every family, rent free, and there will
be no taxes. The hours of labor will be
reduced to six day and the wages Will
be increased threefold.
All homes will be furnished with re-
frigerating plants, electric fans, electric
cooking apparatus and swimming pools;
each will have a garage and an auto
mobile will be part of each mans outf1t-
