with their prisoners they were at
tackled by more than d hundred Zuni
Indians on the warpath. They took
hasty shelter among the rocks and
for hours held off the assailants, with
the assistance of their captives.
1t was Il long, losing fight. Several
of the cowboys were killed and not
one was without a wound of some
sort. They knew that at nightfall
the Indians would rush them and all
would be lost. He told how he, I'M

his way over the rocks and had has

With not a moment to lose, PERISH

pleased with this arrangement, for
they had expected 10 figure in a
''neck-tie party, which the cowboys
had threa tened when they were cap
tured.
In 1890 came the Sioux wars in
the Dakotas.
General Miles selected Lieutenant
Pershing because of his knowledge Of
Indians and of Indian fighting to
command the Indian Scouts. These
were made up of Indians and were
used chiefly to find and follow the
slight trails left by the willy raiders
In this position Pershing was con-
stantly in the fray and figured in
many thrilling fights and ambushes.
He was the idol of the men serving
under him, and for this reason was
able to get the best results from
them.

spared-about ten-and dashed to
the rescue. Night was falling, but
they could hear irregular shots in the
distance. Pershing, fearing he would
not be in time, speeded up his party.
When near the scene the firing in
creased. 1t must be that the Indians
were beginning the rush that was to
end the battle. Down the hill came
Pershing and his little troop and
burst upon the astonished savages
from the rear with his few men so
scattered that the Redskins could not
estimate their number. The blue uni
forms, however, gave them the i'm
preston that here was a force to be
reckoned with; and, with a few scat
tering Nolleys the Indians withdrew
and soon were in full flight.
Pershing assisted the cowboys back
to the fort and placed the cattle
hieves in charge of the marshal

DR.. Mary Mouradian's automobile,

the Latimer laundry teams driven by
William Marsh, on Walnut street at
the driveway to the entrance of the
laundry yesterday and overturned the

The wagon was slightly damaged.
People in the auto blamed Marsh, but
they did not stop to ascertain what

Here, again, he found himself in the
position of teacher. This time, how
ever, he was teaching an art which
by experience he was best qualified
to teach. It is probable that his sue
cess in this position led the War De-
partment to transfer him to that in

war training-West Point. He was

called by the cadets. They could ap

discipline, but they could not appre-

There is a story that on one occa-
sion Lieutenant Pershing, upon open
ing the door to his room, received the
contents of q bucket of water which
had been carefully balanced there for
that purpose. Probably he himself
had helped to play the same sort Of
trick when a cadet. At any rate,
there IS no record that any one was
punished for this offense.
Several years of service in an off,
cial capacity at West Point is proof
that his work there was exceedingly
efficient. No officer could remain
there III that work for any length of
time who did not produce the most
satisfactory results.
Early in 1898 the United States

For years the tyranny with which
Spain governed her island possession

Lieutenant Pershing could not en-

therefore applied for transfer to &C

1t Is interesting to note that the
Tenth Cavalry was a colored regi-

JOIN, Cort Says
Theatres Are
A Necessity
Manager Considers They
Have Done Their
Full DUTY

The theatre in war times is neces-
sity and not a luxury, and should be
so regarded by the government, con
tends John Cort, manager of the Cort
Theatre. Furthermore, he believes that
between heavy taxes, agitation for ear
ly closing and the conservation move
ment theatricals are being compelled
to bear more than their burden of war
hardships.
although ! have been a Snowman
all my life, am az patriotic as anybody
and an all-wool American, ! think the
theatrical business has had pretty
rough deal from all sides ever since we
went to war;" says Mr.. Cort
"ln the first place it has been the
view of a good many people high in
government office, in business and the
professions that theatrical entertain
ment is a luxury, and as such ought to
be dispensed with during the war,
which is entirely wrong. Such ideas
are fanatical and most injurious
"In England and France it has been
proved that theatrical entertainment
is an absolute necessity during the try
ing war times and to-day the theatres
in London are turning them away. HUI
man nature is the same in war as in
peace. The mind must have diver
sion from daily care. People who work
hard all day have to seek some relaxa-
ton in the evening to rest up, and
the harder they work the more that
hour of recuperation in needed.
1--WE are not going to win the war by
making nervous wrecks of everybody,
and it seems as if that is what some
folks are trying to do.
"1n fact there has been so much
printed and said about the war that
everybody is a Tired Business Man
now and will continue to be until we
forget about the war once in a while.
We are taxed in every direction these
strenuous days, so it is only natural
that after people have paid the ad-
mission war tax at the box Office they
feel that they have been taxed enough
and want little relief"

foreign entertainment imported to this
country has ever created such sensa-

which typifies graphically what in
Spain compares with our native review
No higher tribute could have been paid
to the art of these Spanish players
than the rapidity with which American
impresarios have copied the gorgeous
costumes, exotic music and the native
dances which were shown here for the
first time in the Vclasco Brothers pro-
duction.
