The exposition grounds were practical ! )
deserted last night , only a few straggling
visitors passing through the gates after (
o'clock. There was a caune for this. The
big show could not compete with the elec
trical1 parade ) given by the Knights of Ak-
Sar-Bon on the downtown streets. Tin
lights on thu Exposition grounds wen
turned out an hour before their time , thi
gates wcro closed at an early hour and i
deserted appearance spread over the Midway -
way , that usually at night is all stir , joj
and pleasure. At 10 o'clock , Instead ot thi
crowd that Is almost always upon tin
grounds at that hour , there was only nov
nnd then a figure hurrying away toward i
Bute , closefy watched by some guard. Si
scarce were the visitors that the guard :
viewed each ono with suspicion.
What the exposition lacked In attendnnci
during the evening , It made up for durlni
the day , which was another that went Inti
the 25,000 class , as more than that man ;
pcoplo passed the gates. The special tea
turcs brought many of the visitors , but thi
general excellency of the show was re
Rponslblo for the major portion of the at
tendance. The people put In the day scelni
Y the sights and worked ns faithfully n ;
though they wcro being paid for what the ;
accomplished. They strolled through th
Kreat buildings , arong the Lagoon , througl
the Midway , upon the Bluff tract , vlsltei
the stock show nnd tarried among the In
dlans. They wcro upon the grounds for th
purpose ot seeing nnd see they did.
The Ohio day exercises were held at th
Auditorium and were largely attended b ;
the visiting Buckeyes nnd many others win
pointed lo a residence In the old state a
some past period. While the Pennsylvania
pcoplo held a picnic In another portion o
the city , many ot the visitors of the cxctir
Klon party were upon the grounds , thel
Identity being dlsclosud by the. , Keyston
ftp.tu badge whfch each ono wore. The ;
ttt < JJKnhtit tl ) jevtiliWfu\ * pciJ ! , - ; ; 'Ji
their far away homo , but they realized tha
there a TransmlsBlsslppl Exposition Is ai
Impossibility nnd consequently they chos
between the two attractions and spent th
day upon the exposition grounds.
The llvei stosk show , which by experts 1
pronounced the- best ever herd In the Unite
States , attracted a goodly proportion of th
crowd , all anxious to see the fine animal
that have been brought here from almos
every state in thu union. Whllo a majorlt
of those who visited this feature of the ex
position wcro farmers , stock breeders nn
admirers of horses , cattle , sheep and swim
there were thousands of people from cltlc
nnd towns who found the exhibit a mos
Interesting ono. In this connection It mlgli
tiu state : ! that the llvo stock show is draw
Ing more farmers to the exposition tha
any feature that has been heretofore put 01
They como from this and adjoining stntei
Whllo many come from points hundreds e
miles away. They bring their famlllc
along nnd are bpcmllng from three to flv
s t
days at the exposition.
As upon former occasions , the sham bal
ties between the Indian tribes caught
largo portion of the crowd , especially Hi
visitors from the far east and south , mos
of whom had never before witnessed sue
n sight nnd felt that this would be the lai
opportunity to gnzo upon the American a
ho appears In war with contending tribes.
Wlmt Todny Hold * Forth.
Aside from the rcgufar routine , today ht
j no great attractions In store for the e :
position visitors. This , however , will gl\ \
them a better opportunity of making a moi
critical examination of the great show , i
they will not bo Interrupted by watchli
for the side features. The members of tl
P. 13. 0. society will observe the day wll
appropriate exercises at the Nebraska bulli

Owing to the vast amount of red tape re
quired to obtain burial permits many bed la
ot the poor , picked up In huts and tin
streets , were left for days unburled , evti

nights ago an old woman died In the middle

about 9 o'clock. At her head sat her llttli
daughter In the last stages of consumption

faro and many persons passed before thf
sad picture of distress and death. A purse
was made up for the little orphan.
Next morning the body was removed
twelve hours after death. This sad nnd dis
graceful Incident happened In the prlnclpa

recess until that hour.
Upon the reassembling of the court thi
chaplain was in his seat.
Dr. W. E. Wilson , who testified as at
export yesterday , gave further expert testl
mimy. Ho gave the opinion that the condi
tion of the chaplain's nerves when hi
reached Denver , or the effect of eighteci
i alns of quinine or ( .f an ounce of brand :
would have had a tendency to Incapacltnti
the chaplain for clnuccted and orderly mental -
tal activity.
At the afternoon session Attorneys Deut

question raised yesterday as to the ctnv
potency of testimony proposed to bo Intro
duced by the prosecution for the purpose o
Impeaching the credibility of the defendant
The Judge advocate had asked Chaplain MB

The following telegram , which speaks for

To William McKlnley , Executive Mansion
Washington : Advices from conservative
sources lend us to believe that a force ol
not less than 600 soldiers , preferably 800
fhould be at once available at Leech lakt
and Vicinity. We believe such a force l (
needed , not only to rescue Ooneral Bacor
and the survivors of his command , but prop
erly to overawe the agency Indians , In whose
professions of friendship and neutrality nt

A general outbreak at or around Wal'cci
would probably result In the massacre o :
many citizens. In a country as heavllj

Cniine of the Trouble.
WALKER , Mlnti. , Oct. C. The PlUage
and other neighboring Indians of the Whltt
Earth reservation claim to have many rea
eons for their present Outbreak , althougl
the direct trouble with the Pillagers come
over attempts to bring In some of the In
dlans to the United States court at Duluth
In connection with liquor selling case ?
Their grievances go back through man ;
years , and there have been legislative ani
other attempts to settle them , ono of th
latest being the Nelson law regarding th
sale of timber on the Indian lands. How
ever , the Indians asserted that the mcthoi
of disposing of this land was both cumber
Bomo and expensive and that they wer
the sufferers. In regard to serving as wit
nesses In illegal liquor Belling cases , the
sny that the deputy marshals left them t
find their own way home from Duluth , with
out having paid them the proper mileage
This is denied by the deputies. The leade
In thn troubles with the Pillagers Is an ol
warrior. Bog-Ah-Ma-Go-Shlg , not a chlei
who recently returned from court and wa
soon afterward sought r.galn by the depu
ties. He alleged Ill-treatment In bclu
turned adrift penniless In Duluth , an
aroused the other Indians to protest agalne
the way he claimed to have been treated
The United States marshal insists that th
old man's story Is unfounded , but the red
had been stirred up to such a pitch tha
troubro apparently bucamo unavoidable I
view of the deeply-seated feeling of ganera
Ill-treatment In regard to their timber land
and their lauds and rights In general.

It was a terribly foggy morning and I
was almost Impossible for the trainmen t
see more than two rods ahead. Passcn&c
' train No. 4 came Into Indianola from th
west and , after making transfers , pulle
ahead and backed in on the sldo track , let
ting freight train No. 147 take the mal
line. Just as No. 4 was pulling out of th
siding cast and No. 147 was pulling out c
the town west , a stock special drawn b
two engines was noticed coming at hlg
speed around the curve. The trainmen wh
were fortunate enough to see the approach
Ing train had barely tlmo to Jump and sav
their lives before the two trains met wit
terrific force.
The tremendous report of the dlsastroi :
collision had hardly died away before thre
engines were piled In a heap and hearl
rending moans were beard from the dyln
' , trainmen , .wto wer * $ packed ' t gflfZ&QfQ
ruins.

The Impact was something terrible and tl
freight was driven back with such force i
to send the rear end against the passengi
train as it was about to leave the swltc !
Fortunately the engineer of the passongi
saw what was coming and brought his tra :
to a standstill In time to prevent Its colili
ing with the coaches and by so doing savi
many lives. As It was the force of the co
llslon smashed in the side of the mail c ;
and did considerable damage to the cngln
It la said that one of the things whli
j prevented the passenger from getting In
! the midst of the collision Is that It backi
i on the side track Instead of keeping tl
rcaln line as Is usually the case.
The wreck presented a ghastly sight ,
' there are sixteen cars of sheep In the stoi
train and of this number six cars a
smashed almost to a pulp and hundreds
sheep were crushed to a Jelly. Everythli
within reasonable distance of the wrei
was spattered and besmeared with blood.
Will McCarl , the brakeraanwho was kllle
was at ono time a resident of Hastliu
but a few years ago he moved to McCoo
Enlgneer Anson was taken to McCook ai
placed under a physician's care , but he Is
badly Injured that it Is thought he cann
survive the night. Mr. Anson Is a reside
of Hastings and has a wife and family hei
The railroad company did everything In I
power for the unfortunate dead nnd Injure
The remains of the dead were taken
McCook to await further orders. The Injur
were also taken to that city to bo plac
under the Immediate care of a physician.
So far as yet known the blame of t
accident has not been fixed and if It h
It has not been made public. All day lethe
the wrecking crew has had a full force

ruins , which resemble a conglomeration

KING AK-SAR-BEN SURPASSES HIMSELF
.Mighty Miiimrcli of a llouudlcHU
Henlin I-\1ilhltn Ilia Minillleoiiuo
mid 1'owrr In a Mont Wonderful
of SurpuKiInK llenuty.
The splendor of the triumphal entry ot
King Ak-Sar-Bcn IVwas eclipsed last night
by'tho dazzling brilliancy of his second
pageant. The king had given his royal word
that lie would surpass the most tmpo.Ung
spectacular triumphs of his iiredoceasors and
ho redeemed his promise by affording the
mullltudo a vision of surpassing beauty.
The electric parade was by far the most
novel and elaborate street demonstration
that has been wltnc.'sed In the kingdom ot
Qulvcra. Thousands of Incandescent lamps
were added to the magnificent , decorations
of the royal chariots and tbo king and hla
court rode In a blaze of splendor that In
spired his subjects to the wildest acclama
tions.
The pageant was witnessed by another
tromenduous concourse which packed the
center of the city until progress on foot was
almost impossible. Thousands of exposition
visitors were added to what seemed like the
cntlro population of the city nnd from 7
o'clock until after tbo last glittering chariot
had been returned to the den the business )
district was a continuous expanse of cheer
ing and enthusiastic people. The enthusi
asm was decidedly more apparent than dur
ing previous pageants nnd the progress of
the floats was accompanied by continual
demonstrations of approval ,
The daring of the knights In assuming to
Imitate the glories of the firmament was
justified by the amazing beauty of the ef
fects produced. The designs of the 11 oat3
were strikingly original nnd when they were
lit by thousands of Incandescent bulbs their
beauty was wonderfully enhanced. The dull-
catc coloring of the material was emphasized
by Innumerable globes ot red , yellow and !
green and shimmered In the most fantastic
shades under the electric radiance. Aa
each now conception appeared It was greeted
with cheers and handclapptng while tbo
courtiers In mythological costumes who rode
on waved their appreciation ot the ovation
with their magic wands.
The same profusion ot bands that has been
a commended feature of all the Ak-Sar-Ben
was an abundance ot Inspiring music , to
Incite the people to renewed enthusiasm.
1 j This reached Us climax when the pageanti
passed up Karnam street , where the pcoplo
were most densely congregated. The court
house square was a solid jam ot heads , every
possible vantage point on the adjoining
buildings was occupied and the sidewalks
were packed with people from wall to curb.
Thu brilliant illuminations of the big build-
ngs brought the beauties of the pageant
nto bright relief and each of the long line
ot floats was generously cheered ,
ItM Title 'I'dIN Itfielr.
The head of the parade was similar to
that of Tuesday night's formation. A squad
of mounted policemen , under command ot
Sergeant Her , led the way , followed by the
Hoard of Governors of the Knights of Ak-
Sar-Ben , also mounted. The McCook nnd thu
Omaha concert bands were next In line , al
ternating In keeping up a continuous Btralu
of music In front of the procession.
The nrnt float was symbolic of the tltlu
of the parade , "A Pageant of the Heavenly
nodles. " The lights were red , blue and
white. Two magi or wise men of the cast
are engaged In studying the Blare. A hugo
telescope Is shown , which is temporarily con
verted Into a searchlight , throwing Its bright
rays far In advance of the car. One of ( hu
ancient astronomers peers through his tele
scope and communicates hU discoveries tu
lib companion In the rear , who marks them
on a chart of the heavenly expanse.
The second float was that of I'cgaaun , In
red , blue and green lights. A monster winged
horse Is shown flying through the clouds
of blue , surmounted by winged representa
tions of the different , muses , with which ho
has been associated since he caused thu
perpetual fountain of Hlppocreno by strik
ing the top of the mountain with one ot
his hoofs.
The Omaha Military band led the thlnt
float , which represented Mercury , and was
Illuminated with blue nnd white- lights , Tha
little mcsenger was seated In the clouds ,
owaltlnsc the bidding of the gods. In front
of him , and close at hand , were several ferns
of lightning , upon which lo dispatch m s-
sages of love or hate , as the decree might
be. Back of him the sun shone brightly ,
Its bright rays reflecting brightly upon him.
Jupiter was the fourth float. In red , whlto
and blue light. The mightiest god of them
nil sat upon the monarch of the planets ,
-thunderbolts in his hand ready to hurl
upon those -who Incurred his displeasure.
The smaller planets of the constellation
were near , submissive- the will of thn
mightier power overlooking them. Clouds
Intermingled with the planets , and ft hugo
bank of them rlso up In the reai , in which
a soaring bird la shown.

The hugo llzanlllke constellation , Draco ,
then floated along the sea of clouds a grca' .
serpentine monster with fiery red eyes and
wide-open , flaming mouth and protruding
livid tongue. Ills great head and twisting
' tall were raised high nbovo the seething bil
lows of mist ho breasted. Great glittering
flna of green nnd yellow emerged from tin
pure white mass of clouds as ho clove >
through them. Upon his broad green back
ho carried the glistening star that twinkle *
. In 1ho heavens nnd beside It sat a pair ol
fairy attendants with wands flashing colored
lights. Terrible , yet magnificent and
haughty , this Inhabitant of the northern
okles crept along.
In Draco's wake came < the monarch ot tin
northern hemisphere , I'olarls , the north
star , and his companion , Borealls. A great

chilly scene. Aurora glowed with a deep
