considered generally pretty truthful,
but If 7 had told the commanding Of
ficer that had drawn a gun on Gall
/ I would have been promptly ban
ished from Fort Buford. Had not
drawn the gun on Gall, he would
i have slain me and doubtless it would
never have been known who did it.
Captain Clifford, who has crossed the
great divide, was in charge of the
hostile camp. Before / left Fort Blu
ford he said to me:
Mr.: Barry, what got into you
to pull a gun on Gall? 81
Captain, there is nothing in that
story ~ .a
Well, Gall tells me that you did
and I have the greatest confidence
in him. I cannot understand why he
should tell me that story. If it is not
true. But now let me tell you some
thing. You have taken the proper
course in this matter. The command
ing officer believes you, and you will
pardon me if ] tell you that I be-

friends that think much Of prize
it more highly than any Indian pic
ture that I have ever taken.
Told Story Later.
Before leaving Fort Buford, Cap
tain Clifford invited me to the Of
fcers' club, and after chatting
while he recalled the Gall incident.
He asked me to tell him the facts Of
the case, promising on his honor as
an officer to divulge them to nobody.

more declared that I was surprised |
thatTGall had reported me. I told the
captain that I did not consider Gall
dead game to do SO.
I'm 1883 I saw Gall for the first
time. since our exciting episode at
Fort Buford. It was at Standing
Rock. The other chiefs greeted me:
warmly, but Gall stood aloof and
eyed me with a dignifed and deep re-
sentiment. Later Gall and I became
good friends and neither of US seyerI
referred to the Fort Buford affair.
Only one of the leading figures
of-the crowd, white or red, is living
today. Chief Gall, Major Brother

Flurey are all dead. Flurey was
shot in a cowardly manner at Fort

for the murder at Bismarck, and it'll

In recent issue of the Duluth
+! News-Tribune is an i, Interesting
sketch of Chief Gall, the Sioux chief
tain who took a leading part in. the
Custer massacre, gained from an in
terview with d. F.. Barry, the for
mer. frontier photographer, and
whose pictures of frontier Indians
have been famouse through the coun-
try The Tribune says:
David F. Barry of Superior, who
was,,a frontier photographer. in the
days when General Custer, General
Miles, General Crook and other IA
nous soldiers were making history
in the Indian country of the west, to-
day for the first time allows to be
printed his exclusive picture of the
celebrated Sioux warrior, Chief Gall,
when hostile. 1t is a great pic
ture of the greatest Indian chief that
thes west has ever known, and the
plate was preserved at the risk of
Mr. Barry's life. His bust picture
of Chief Gall is familiar to the read
ers of newspapers, magazines and
the students of histories, but it was
b taken in after years, when the war
like Gall has been subdued and be-
come reconciled in a measure to the
ways of civilization. But the pic
ture herewith presented was the first
photograph taken of him when a
prisoner of war, just after he had
been captured. =
Gall Was Warlike. ,.s
The taking of this picture was at
tended with some difficulties, but the
keeping of it was attended with peril
for Mr.. Barry. He risked his life
to retain the plate before he had
time to print a picture from it. There
are but two pictures in existence, of
which the accompanying is a copy,
and Mr.. Barry considered it the
choicest, all things considered, Of his
valuable collection of western In
dams. Had the little shadow catch
err" as the Sioux Indians called him,
not been made of the mettle that car
ries men through danger by prompt
and courageous action, this picture
would not now be in existence and
Mr.. Barry would have died at the
hands of his famous Indian subject
more than a quarter of century
ago. The picture is in way an in
heritance of much interest and value
to the blood-stained history Of the
west, and the story of Mr.. @Barry's
getting it is entitled to a place with
it. This picture, like all of Mr.. Bar
rvs photographs of Gall and other
great Indians, is copyrighted. He
was urged to tell the story of his ex-
perience in getting it and consented.
It is in substance as follows; 1

The 'tsaIomes Question. ]

BY Joseph sohn, in the April June
Forum. Y VI
The rejection Of sSalome'' involves
a question Of far-reaching import
ance; the freedom of dramatic rep
resentation. The growth of dramatic.
and sico-dramatic performances
during the past years has been phe-
nomenal. Never before have people.
f1ocked to theatre and opera in such
numbers. Never has the stage been
a more fruitful topic of discussion.
Why Because people are daily be-
coming more intensely interested in:
the actualities Of life. They thirst:
for actual experience. They wish to3
put life to the test for themselves.
Is it not natural, therefore, that, dur
ing their hours of leisure, they
should eagerly throng to witness the
representation Of life on the stage
life in it's actuality, in all its
phases, the intense life in the pres
ent, which is fraught for them with
an ever-inc reasing Importance which
all conditions are tending to stimu-
late, and which no reactionary ten
denotes. whether dictated by convic-
ton or policy, can long arrest?
Does any one really believe that
at such q time and in country
the boast Of which has ever been the
right of free discussion, the repre-
