INDIANS IM'T OX T.VO HANOI

White llriithor'n KilllU-ittlon ,
The Indians played to good sized a
appreciative audiences both afternoon a
evening yesterday. There were dances
both occasions and the people who witness
them were nearly all strangers In the cl
A horn dnnco was scheduled for the attt
noon , but it was not put on. In Itn Bte
something over 100 of HIP Indians , repi
sentatlves from all the tribes , got out n
danced a war dance , ono of the hottest tt
has been seen since the Indians catno up
the grounds. As on previous occaslo :
most of the Indians were stripped to t
skin , with the exception of the brecchclo
The decorating was done In the most artls
style , blue being the prevailing color , thou
red and green gave It a' close race.
When tlmo was called that everlnstl
drum was brought out and placed In t
center of the ring , after which six India
with Pretty Dear as chlet drummer , star !
he music. In a very abort tlmo the palnl
lancers Hied In from their wigwams , can
ng guns , shields or wands and started I
itcp and for a couple of hours they stepi
t oft at a lively rate , stopping only wt
hey were exhausted.
The dance was ono of those that Is p
Iclpatcd In before the braves go to v
and while the Indians consider It of a rel
ous character , white people do not. As tl
dance they sing a mournful melody ,
principal feature of which Is a request
ho Great Father to bring them all ho
illvo and assist them In slaughtering
enemy ,
ibow dance by the Arapahocs %
carded for the evening , but It , like the hi
dance that had been advertised for the t
ornoon , did not come off nnd Captain Mer
md to fill up the program by chasing
own northern Indians Into the ring. Ill
tiers were sent ) to the dlffeient lodges i
in less than fifteen minutes 100 Indians i
pcared , In full dress , or rather undr <
ready for the party. For a couple of ho
they danced ono of their everyday frlen
dances and the people went away immens
well satisfied.
Today Is the regular day for the sh
battle that Is to be called for tonight i

considerable of his time at the Indian ca

respect'lvo reservations. He held a 1
conference with Geronlmo , the noted Apn
chief , and upon its conclusion he said I
he Is glad to know that the old man Is :

Commissioner Jones in speaking of
work of the Indian congress said In
Judgment Qaptaln Mercer has worked
the details In flue shape and Is doing evi
thing that lies in his power to acquaint
white people with the homo life of the
dian. The exhibition has been a plea :
ono to Commissioner Jones , who says
feels a great Interest ! in the Indians
their future , believing the time will ci
when they will entirely abandon their tr
relations and accept the methods and items i
toms of the whites.
Relative to Indian schools , CommlssU
Jones said : "At this time we have beU
20,000 and 25,000 Indian children In ech
They are bright and learn rapidly ,
greatest drawback to the education of
Indian Is we cannot furnish them all i
employment after they graduate from
schools. At school they ar'opt the wayi
the whites and many of them continue
follow them after they return to t
homes. Ouc records show that. 76 per i
of the Indiana who have been educated

gone back to the blanket. Some are fa

and a great many are employed by the i

"Tho eastern school has had much tt

Like white men , the Indians have an
that in order to have bood luck and 1
out of harm's way it Is the correct tl
to have a mascot. They have wanted
ever since they came Into camp , but
until yesterday did they find Just what
wanted. Now they have a live mascot
It Is Francis , the G-ycor-old son of Gc
Stewart , Interpreter for the Crows.
In the last Indian battle George an
younger brother rode a burro and '
immediately nicknamed the "Two L

Wolf , the chief of the Cheyennes , sugge

The suggestion was taken up and yeste
the lad was given the Job. Ho was pal
