brought to standstill the other day,
and Interpreter Lichtenstein was
forced to admit that he had met his
Waterloo after many victories in un-
tangline strange tongues when two
women members Of the Iroquois tribe
OF Indians appeared before Magistrate
Herbert, one charging the other with
felonious assault, the weapon being a
can Of tomatoes.
Mrs. Cecilia Hyde, As years old, Of
526 Broome street, whose Indian name
is Kaiuwaion, charged Mrs. Ida Domi-
nick, 30 years old, who is known to
her tribe as Kaiukwas, with assault
after dispute in the Broome street
house in which they both live.
When the case was called and Police
man Carone Of the Macdougal Street
station house arraigned Kaiukwas, and
motioned Kaiuwaion to approach the
bench, it was learned that, although
bearing English names. neither CON-
plainant nor defendant spoke English
Court Interpreter Lichtenstein was

the IroQuois gutturals begged to be
excused.

other day, and, coming to Washington
was locked up on charge Of disorder

The wild man, who lives on raw
meat and leafs 'em alive" was ap-
preached the following night by Po-
liceman Andes of the Fifth precinct
while doing a war dance In Pennsyl-
vania Avenue Southeast.
who do you think you are, any,
way?" inquired Andes.
"G-rrr! Wool" responded the wild
man.
Whereupon Policeman Andes called
the wagon, and the wild man was
taken to the station. put in a cell, and
told to sleep it off,
1t is supposed that the wild man got
tired of staying in a cage and eating
raw meat and sleeping in hay. So he
pushed the door of his dugout open,
and walked 16 miles to Washington to
get something that would take the
taste of the meat out of his mouth.
When the news spread through
Rockville that it probably had wild
man on it's hands, a posse of vigi-
lantes armed themselves with shot
guns and pitchforks and raw meat.

1t was estimated by onlookers that
neither column Of sparrows was over
three feet wide. They worked in solid
block formation and moved rapidly on

solidly intrenched behind breastworks
of grass.
Owing to their intrenched position,
it was impossible for onlookers to es.

it was generally conceded that the at.
lacking battalion of sparrows was 500
strong.
Like Henry of Navarro at 1vry, the
commander of the worms held his
forces close to the cannon" of the
invading sparrows, but without avail.

was reported dead on the field, while
