Indians Shake Hands
The Sioux and Shoshone braves had
their dearest wish granted when they
walked over to shake hands with Colonel
Roosevelt. Decked in every bit of gaudy
finery, they rode to the stand and each
was given hardy hand clasp in response
to their greeting, How"

ing wildly all the while. The squaws had
a race of their own and Asesarat ran
away from Mrs. Flathead, Lost A Pin,
Carrie Nation, Works on the Tub, Twist
Ear and Mrs. Pin Head. All the squaws
wore loose trousers and silk blouses of
flaming colors.
The cavalrymen from Fort Russell had
a sham battle. Charlie Hirsidig drove a
team of buffaloes around the track and
the Indians gave a war dance. There was
an exhibition of lassoing and branding and
there was to have been mule race,
but the mules refused to run.
The bucking ability of the horses drawn
this afternoon for the broncho busting
championship soon narrowed the contest
to Sam Scoville, Charles Mckinley and
Charles Thomas. Each was forced to
ride two horses and Scoville was declared
winner after two sensational rides on
Driver and Aaeroplane.
Mckinley was second, while Thomas
was given a heavy fall by Miller Kid, his
last horse.

Proposed Annexation of Suburb
to Bessemer-GenernI News
of Interest

Bessemer, August 27.-(Special)-I has
been persistently rumored in Bessemer
industrial circles that the Atlanta, Bir-
mingham and Atlantic railroad would
locate its shops near Bessemer. Nothing
official has been learned, but the rumor
has been so persistent that. 1t has gained
credence. 1t is stated that the shops will
be located near the United States Cast
Iron Pipe and Foundry company's plant,
in the northern part of the city. This
is considered as an ideal site for the
shops as 1t is just outside of the corpor-
ate limits of Bessemer and near the main
line. 1t will be remembered that 1t was
the original intention of the road to build
shops In Bessemer.
Should the shops be built here 1t would
mean considerable increase In the indus
trial world, as the shops would attract
many high class workmeh and would also
employ a large amount of labor. 1t is
hoped by Bessemer citizens that the shops
will materialize.

added to his suffering and one in particular the

did not do any good SO we took him to a hospital.
He was treated as an out patient twice week and
he got worse, if anything. We then called IN
another doctor and inside of week the boy was,
to all appearances, cured and the doctor said his
work was done. But the very next day it broke
out as bad ever.
We decided that it could not be cured and
must run its course and so we just kept his arms
bandaged to his side to prevent his tearing his

Decatur seems to be the Jonah of the
Bessemer team, as they have lost both
games played with the Climbers. In
short, Bessemer lost this afternoon, al
though Tucker was in the box. The game
was a fast one and well played. Both
teams had plenty of ginger and some SEN
sational plays were made. The Climbers
were able to hit Tucker at opportune mo-
ments, which accounts for the loss. The
loss of the game will not affect the
standing of the teams, as the Y. M. c.
A. lost to the lowly Northerners by the
score of to 0. This was the biggest
surprise of the day.

He galoped around the half-mie track
