THE INDIAN FIGHTER.
(Henry F. wells)

Henry F. Wells)
Old Buffalo Bill and scouts of skill.
Many of whom are with us still,
Weren't marker to old Tom Gray.
He'd tell of fights and greusome sights.
Talk all day long and mostly nights.
OF some bloody Indian fray.
In the Woody West he was at his best
when he put it over all the rest,
And could lick four men with ease.
With booze for a bride Tom would de-
scribe,
How alone and unaided he vanquished
a tribe
OF bold and bloody Pawnees.
We stood the stuff from the darned old
bluff,
Till the boys all thought we'd had
enough,
Thought 1t time to draw our knives;
But our hands were stayed when be
told of a raid,
Where he captured a squaw and an
Indian maid,
And made them both his wives.
To swallow both, the boys were loath,
And then and there took solemn oath
To give Tom demonstration.
So with many shout we started out,
And left Big Reds in noisy rout,
And hiked for the Reservation.
There we fixed a job with old Bald
Knob,
To come to town with his bowling
mob,
And give old Tom a fright
With many feint without complaint,
The braves rode in with their togs and
paint,
They sure were a scary sight.
We found Tom dry, filed him full of
rye,
Till he scarce could see with either eye
He had some thirst to slake.
He thought for a spell, he'd sure struck
When those redskins gave their war
time YELL
And tied him to stake.
Then they made smudge and you can
judge,
To see Tom there squared many a
grudge,
AS we watched him through the
smoke,
And when some laggart laid on fagot
To get one look at that old braggart
Was sure heartsome joke.
We soon formed ranks for the final
pranks,
And KILLED" the reds with a lot Of
BLANKS"
Toms rescue" was completed;
Some braves we found stretched on
the ground,
But the yells had ceased, there was no
sound,
They had left the field defeated"
Old Toms near roast has changed his
boast,
He doesn't tell of painted host,
And strut round Reds saloon;
He admits it's right-his flercest fight,
Was while on his back in the dead Of
night,
With the Red Man in the moon

The Boil Weevil.

If it is true that Mr.. w. T.
Clark, of Yazoo county, Missis-
sippi, has succeeded in discov-
ering a parasite that will effec-
tually defy the boil weevil, the
government should amply and
literally reward him for his
persistence and continued labor.
Government experts have been
engaged for a long time in at
tempting to find some means of
putting the destructive boil wee
will out of commission, and many
thousands of dollars have been
spent without achieving more
than academic results. If Mr..
Clark's discovery will do the
work it is claimed for it, he will
have rendered the Southern
country a service not easily esti-
mated. Memphis News-Scimi-

DEFEAT MASONS
Antlered Tribe Win Easy Vic.
tory Over MasonS In Second
Diamond Contest.

The Elks have it on the Ma
sons as ball players, having sue
cessively and easily vanquished
them in a rather one-sided con-
test at the park Thursday after
noon, before a big crowd of fans
hungry for a game, who took
delight in sharpening their wits
at the expense of the boys in
uniform on both sides.
Both teams gave convincing
evidence that they were once
masters of the diamond and con-
sidering the years of business
and non practice that have tend
ed to stiffen joints and soften
muscles, they put lots of snap
and talent into the affair that
made it decidedly interesting.
Vaughn and Pate were oppos-
ing slabmen and the Stallings
Brothers were receivers. Vaughn
made a record Of eight strike
outs and was two stingy to is
sue a single pass and allowed
but three hits, while Pate was
more liberal and gave four, but
had four of the Elks whipping
the ozone.
Bevens' stick work, for the
Masons, getting two safe whacks
IN three times up, and a clean,
fast double in the seventh, when
Dowell hit into a double, Hirsch
handling the ball to Lockard,
where McCuistion was forced,
and on to Childers at first were
the features of the game.
In the fifth the Elks took kind
ly to Pate's offerings, Vaughn
touching him up for three bag
ger, but his failure to touch the
initial sack brought him back to
Bevansville. Mcdonald, the lad
from Weldon, next up, tried to
knock the cover off the apple and
hide it in the grass in deep left
field. He scored Vaughn, but in
trying to stretch his three bag
ger was nailed at the home plate
by Stallings. Walker Stallings
reached first on an error and also
scored in this round by differing
a base and coming in on Black
woods two Dagger. The princi-
pal fireworks took place in the
fifth and the other runs were
unearned.
