Dressed up "To Kill"

The baseball game here hast Sun
day, between the Parker and the
Needles Indian teams, naturally
brought out the aboriginese in force,
most of them logged up in the gayest
Of their holiday toggery, and the riot
Of loud" colors was dazzling to the
eye. One buck in particular at
tracted more than passing attention
on account of his dress. He wore a
heavy Prince Albert coat although
the weather was hotter than blue mis-
cry, blue Overalls, pink shirt, scarlet
handkerchief about his neck, red
ribbons In his hair, red streamers
hanging from each elbow, and, bare
headed and bare-foOted, he stood for
the admiring gaze of the sQuaws-a
first rate parody on the incongruities
OF Iatter7day fashion. Undoubtedly
had the individual i'm question been
one OF the elect or a society lady
instead of an aboriginal buck, the
verdict of the ultra-fashionable
would have been that he she or it
was dressed swell"

Paris Where Hospitals Are
Crowded to Limit.

PARIS, Oct. 2.-The Red Cross and
allied institutions OF mercy have been
swamped with the vast number OF
wounded soldiers from the great
battle OF the Aispe. Early in the con-
fict Paris was overwhelmed by the
constant stream of wounded men that
flowed in from the north and east.
Hospitals were established in the sub
urbs. but these were filed Immediate
ly and now all Of southern and west
ern France is full OF stations for the
care Of the wounded. There Is a con-
stant call for volunteer doctors and
nurses.
Many wounded British soldiers have
been sent TO England for treatment,
but a large number Of them were so
severely hurt that they could not
stand the journey.

Judging from the casualties of the
first week Of the gigantic engagement
II will be safe TO estimate the losses

since died.
The greater part OF the wounded
are brought southwark by night.
There is little place IN a great war
