BETTER BABY DAY WILL
BE GREAT SUCCESS

Pensacola we know full well that the
babies of our city are prettier and
sweeter than those in Jacksonville
they are the sweetest in the world.
Even Mayor Greennut is interested
and he guarantees safe passage from
Garden street to the city hall, where
the premiums will be awarded.
The Pensacola Equal Suffrage
League is very proud Of its Better
Baby Day. 1t is going to be lots of
fun. In the morning The Journal is
to put out a special Better Baby
edition, with the pictures and scores
of the prize winners, and a great
many interesting things about Better
Babies.
At 3:15 the Better Babies parade
will start from Garden street and
the awards will be made for the prize
winning babies at the city hall-those
who win in the Better Baby Contest
and those winning in the parade.
There will be program at the city
hall, which will be largely attended,
for this is Better Baby Day for
everybody, for of course Suffragists
aren't the only people who believe in
Better Babies.
Mrs. Frank billiard is chairman of
the Better Babies Contest, Mrs.
Walker Ingraham, president of the
Pensacola Equal Suffrage League, is
chairman of the Better Baby parade,
and Miss C. NJ Robinson, press chair
man, is editor of the edition, of which

Are you going to enter your baby
in the Better Baby parade? If so,
viii you not telephone Mrs. Walker
Ingraham, 1901, at once? The en-
tries are coming in thick and fast and
the plans should be perfected ct
once, as it is very important for the
chairman to know just how many
babies win be entered. In other cities
the baby parades have been a great
success, but in no city do babies
reach the state of perfection of the
Pensacola babies. We all know that.
They are the prettiest, and the smart
est and the sweetest. That is prob
ably why the Pensacola Rotary club
thought it worth while to offer two
valuable prizes for the Better Babies
parade, These prizes will go not to
the prettiest baby, but to the pref
test decorated vehicle and that most
uniquely decorated.
Anything that runs on wheels may
be used as a baby carriage, and the
decorations may be Of anything the
mothers may choose. Crepe paper,
artificial flowers, greenery are all
lovely for decorative purposes, and if
rumor may be credited, some very
lovely effects viii be attained. All
babies under five years are eligible
and It must Der emembered that every
baby has chance to win the premi-
uns offered in this parade. But of
course the premiums are not the main
thing in a baby parade. It is worth
while to enter your baby just to show
your interest in Better Babies.

BEYOND THE CITIES.

After the cities have held you,

After the cities have worn you,
After their thunder and strife
Have crushed you and rent you and

The peace of the mighty hills.
The voice Of the birds mid the
shadows,
The runes Of the ripping rills.

On passion and fury and pride;
After the dreams Of their splendor
Have sickened your spirit and died

In our last sketch, we told of the
alleged battle of "Stillmans' run, -
one of the most disgraceful perform
ances of the whites. The history of
Indian warfare is full of the coward
ice of the whites as we'll as the
treachery of the whites, and coward
ice is at the bottom of treachery,
whether 1T is practiced by whites or
by reds. We read much of the
treachery of the red men, but anyone
who is at all familiar with the tactics
of the whites in their dealing with
Indians will concede that the whites
have little to boast of, except, per
haps, that they did completely out
trick their tricky adversary.
1t turned out, when the true history
of the mess at "Stillman's run"
was known, that the whites met only
a small detachment of Indians-a
sort of rear guard. The main body
of the Sacs was long way north of
the scene of the alleged encounter.
The few comprising the guard in the
rear of the retreating people and
who routed the cowardly whites, did
not number 80 all told. Again it
should be remembered that this was
not an Indian army-the people with
Black Hawk were braves, women,
old men and children-the Sacs were
there, all that were LETT of them
This company, comprising several
hundred of persons, had gone up Rock
river. as soon as they were headed
off from making their visit to
Prophetstown, Ill.,, where were some
Indians friendly to Black Hawk.
And after the fizzle at Stillman' 8
rum" the main body of the Sacs
hustled up Rock river as far as they
might-at least as far as the con-
| fiuence of the Whitewater, creek in
Jefferson county, near where is now
the city of Fort Atkinson. Here
they hid in a big swamp, and the
whites did not dig them out fo-
weeks.
But, after the whites recovered
from the fearful scare they got at
Stillman's rum they organized
their forces, such as did not run
straight home and hide under the bed,
under the command of General Atkin-
son. Several small detachments
marched up Rock river, or in the
northeasterly direction. in a hunt for
the reds. All these forces finally
met near lake Koshkonong, and as
they had been in the woods nearly a
month, provisions were short. So a
company of $50 men and lot of
officers were dispatched westward,
toward the lakes that now surround
Madison, with view to discover the
trail of the Indians, if possible, and
to continue their journey to the
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1915-06-30

age, for provisions. They got their
provisions replenished all right, and
on their way back to join the main
body of the troops they discovered
where the Indians had passed to the
west.
Below Madison (no Madison them
they discovered where the great COM
pany of reds had gone west through
the then unbroken forest. Evidently
they had been scared out of the
Jefferson county swamps by the
presence of so large a company of
soldiers, and were retreating in the
direction of their home across the
Mississippi river. The whites caught
up with the rear guard of the Sacs,
on the east side of the Wisconsin
river, across from the site of the
village of Prairie du Sac. This rear
guard of the Indians was to hold the
whites back, while the women, chill
dren and old men of the Sacs were
put across the river.
Then was fought the terrific battle
of Wisconsin heights, the location of
which is plainly seen from Prairie du
Sac. The whites formed in battle
line and advanced on an unseen foe.
Volly after volly were shot from the
trusty rifles of the militia, to which
the Indians made warlike reply. The
whites emitted yells; the Sacs let
out their most ferocious war whoops.
Black Hawk was with his people,
trying to get the old men, women
and children to a place of safety ;
Napope, a lesser chief, had command
at the battle.
This battle lasted good part of
the afternoon, the next result Of
which was one man killed from the
whites and eight wounded; the
Indians lost six braves. But the
Sacs got their old people. women and
children across Wisconsin river
Then the whites were again out of
grub, and so they started for Blue
Mounds for the replenishment of
provisions. The Indians were starv-
ing, and died by the way from
hunger.
After the whites had replenished
their stores of provision at Blue
Mounds, they started in pursuit of
! the retreating reds. They crossed
the Wisconsin river at near where is
now located the village of Spring
Green. AS soon as they struck the
trail of the fleeing Sacs, the whites
had no trouble in following tit was
more or less strewn with the bodies
of dead. The poor reus were literally
starving to death. But the whites
pressed on; starving Indian as not
so dangerous as well-fed Indian.
