GREAT COUNCIL OF
REDMEN MEETING
Many Red Men Present. Vicks-
burg Selected AS Next Place :
Of Meeting.

Tupelo has done herself proud
in point of ability and wiling
ness to entertain any visiting de-
legation is the concensus of opin-
ion of every delegate to the Great
Council of Mississippi which con-
vened here Monday and Tuesday
of this week, and to use the
exact language Of the Great
Chiefs, "Tupelo has made good. +"
On every train from Monday
morning to Tuesday noon the
visiting Indians poured into the
city which they found neatly and
Appropriately decorated and pre-.
pared in every sense Of the word
to receive them. And be it said
to the credit of the visitors, Tu
pelo or any other town has never
had the honor of entertaining a
class of men Of a higher order of
intelligence and of more exemp-
larry conduct.
The elements were the only
feature that was calculated to
mar the pleasure of the occasion.
and it is needless to say to those
who were hereabouts that it
rained. The first session was
held at the Opera House on Mon
day night to which the public had
been invited but the rain kept
many away. However.a gooGly
audience greeted the speakers.
Past Sachem w. F.Jordan Chair
man of the Program Committee
presided, and the address of well
come on behalf of the city was
delivered by Hon. ]. NJ. Allen,
and it goes without saying that
this duty was performed well.
The response was made by Hon.
Dabney Marshall of Vicksburg,
and it has been many moons
since a more able discourse has
been delivered to a Tupelo audi
ence. It was deep, impressive,
eloquent. It demonstrated the
resourceful intelligence of the
speaker and was a means o1
much edifcation to every ont
who listened.
Hon. Beverly Matthews ot
Columbus also addressed the audi
ence, and that delightful speake
made every one glad they hat
braved the elements to be pre-
sent. Almost a. year ago tn,
Great Council offered a handsom
silk banner to the Tribe tina
showed the greatest increase il
membership, and by untiring eff
fort the local Tribe won owe
every other in the State. Thi
trophy was presented by Col
Sam Montgomery Of Greenvill
in a few well chosen words whic
is characteristic Of that distir
guished gentleman. The banne
which was a handsome affair wa
received for the Tribe by Chic
Abe Steinberger in an interestin
speech.
i All day Tuesday the Gres
Chiefs were in closed session, an

EXPENSIVE JUNK.

A certain gentleman in this city some
time ago got a second hand furnace
turned in as part payment on a new
furnace. 1t was unloaded back of his
store, in view of the street A second
hand dealer visited him on at least one
occasion and tried to buy the furnace
for junk. The owner stated that he
would sell only the terms on which he
acquired the furnace in the trade, Sl5.
This was more than the rag peddlar
could realize on the metal, and negotia-
tions were dropped A few days ago
some boys took it upon themselves to
sell the furnace, unknown to the owner.
The sale was concluded with the junk
dealer referred to above. He hauled
the furnace home and after breaking it
up, dumped it on his scrap heap. When
the owner learned of the transaction he
summoned the junk dealer and effected
a settlement by the latter paying the
price asked of him for the furnace IN
the first place, So 1t was costly junk
and knocked good portion OF the prof
its off his entire scrap heap. but it was
a good lesson, which he can profit by
in the future. The owner of the fur
mace, had be wished 10. could have

A PIECE OF CARELESSNESS.


The Mosinee Times tells of an aecl-
dent which happened in that village last
Wednesday, as follows;
''Chas. Blake of this city, was taken
to ST. Mary's hospital in Wausau
Wednesday night with a badly lacerated
face the result of a shotgun having
been discharged at his head in the
hands of Jos LeGendre. 1t appears
that Mr.. Blake in company with several
others were in Thos. Zell's saloon at
the time engaged in swapping stories.
1t seems that LeGendre did not take
kindly to the tenor of one of Mr.. Blake's
stories, and stepping to corner where
a shot gun was standing, he picked up
the weapon and after loading it with
a cartridge from which the shot
had been withdrawn, threatened, TO
blow the top of Bake's head OF
Mr.. Blake, not surmising that the
weapon was loaded told hila TO fire
away, and the result was that he re-
ceived the entire charge of powder IN
his face and eyes His face
was badly burned with powder and a
deep cash cut by the paper wad, Le-.
Gendre having stood within few feet
of hiE Y hen he fired. Mr.. Blake was
at once taken to the hospital in Wausan
where the powder was removed from
his face. Reports from there are AT that
his wounds are not serious and that ne
will get along alright.
"We understand that this affair was
perpetrated and carried out as jest,
but it seems that it went beyond the
limits of even a practical Joke. Sup

shot cartridge. What would the results
