appropriated the popular Irish air of
-Harry Owen," ae It regimental hymn.
It lappened till way. In November,
IMS. :ho Seventh ravalry ws engaged In
campaign against the Kiowa Indians
In the Indian Territory. Lieutenant Colonel
George A. Custrr was In command of the
expedition, which wn then operating
against Black Kettle and hie band along
the Washita river. The purpoxe of the
expedition was to drive the Indians back
onto their reservation n the Clmmaron
liver. On November 27 Major Joel II.
Elliott of the Seventh, one of the most
popular offloera of the regiment, with a
detachment of twenty men were out on a
cout along Soldier creek, one of the trib
utaries of. the Washita, when they were
ambushed and every man of them killed
by the Indiana.
Caster la Incensed.
General Custer waa Inoensed over the
murder of Elliott and his men, and de
termined to visit the moat condign punish
ment on the Indians.
The following day his scouts located
Black Kettle and his band In the Washita
bottoms, and arranged Ms dispositions the
morning of the 29th before daybreak, com
pletely surrounding the Klowaa.
In order to make the punishment of the
Indians as dramatic as It waa sudden,
Custer had the Seventh cavalry band
posted on a slioht eminence adjacent the
battle field nnd as the regiment moved
against the Indians just before sunrise
the band struck up "Garry Owen."
Never before had a battle started In the
XTnlted States to the accompaniment of
band music. The band played during the
greater part of the fipht. The punishment
of the Indians was terrible, nearly S00 of
them fell under the guns of tho Seventh
cavalry.
Hlack Kettle himself survived, but was
taken prlsonrr. as were the women and
children of the camp.

Wilson sent to the polioe station on the
charge of reckless driving at Sixteenth and
Farnam streets. He waa later released on

"Most any port In a 8101, "Most
any price in a haste," exclaims Drum
mond, the well known buggy manufac
turer, at llth and Harney streets, In re
gard to the extensive "Clearance" he Is
now offering on vehicles of all kinds.
'.'Since announcing this sale I have sold
a surprising number of vehicles," says
Drummond, "but this building Is a huge
one and holds a lot of 'em."
From this It remalna evident that there
are SOME vehicles unsold, and Drummond
firmly makes up his mind to close out
these remainders quick regardless of "list
price," "market price," or "former costs."
Every day brings Drummond towards
his present goal he Intenda devoting his
entire building to the selling and repair
ing or automobiles, but cannot do so
while a stock of vehicles remalna.
Not only vehicles, but all harness, and
')ie count lass other Items one needs about
"'able, are being parceled out to the
l comer at prices entirely out of

uttered.

"I Will Obey Court Order, but Watch
Dairymen Cloier Than Ever,"
He Sayi.
Barney Landholt. a dairyman who had
fifty gallons of milk confiscated by the
health Inspector's force Thursday, has
asked an Injunction in district court to
prevent further selxurea of his milk and
has filed suit for 11.000. Judge Troup Issued
a temporary restraining order. The damage
suit Is brought against Dr. H. W. Connell,
city health Inspector; Joseph Scully, milk
Inspector, Edward Daemon, his assistant,
and Mayor Dahlman.
Daemon and Scully are said td have
poured fifty gallons ot the milk from
Landholt's wagon Into the gutter because
It was found unfit by the tuberculosis test.
The value of the spilled property was put
t $14. A temporary restrainrng order was
granted.
Dr. Connell says he will, of course, obey
the restraining order, which only prevents
him from confiscating any of Landholt's
milk, but that he will watch the dairyman
closer than ever and will cause his arrest
If he attempts to sell any milk deemed by
the health commissioner to be impure.
it this dairyman attempts to sell one
drop of milk from diseased cows, I will
arrest him and have him taken to Jail."
said Dr. Cornell, ' and. If necessary, I will
arreht him titty times a day. He Is mlllc
ing thirty-two condemned cows, and two
of my Inspectors saw him milk eighteen
cows that are tagged as being Infected
with tuberculosis and saw him bring this
milk to Omaha for sale,"
The health commissioner has refused to
issue a license to Fred Oltter, whose milk
was dumped several days ago, and said
that If he attempts to sell milk he will
cause Ms arrest Outer's license was i
voked last June because of the condition
of the dairyman's stables. Oilier sells

Something- Kay Turn TJp to Save It.
"The Automobile association of Omaha Is
not an association at all. If constitution
and by-laws make an association," said an
automobile man. "Early in the year there
was a strong effort to perfect an organiza
tion. The dealers were as keen as mustard
for it. They met and a committee was ap
pointed. Here Is the committee; Henry
H. Van Brunt of Council Bluffs, John P.
Davis of CounoU Bluffs, W. D. Hosford,
J. S. 8tewart, Thomas Kimball, Clarke
Powell. When the season opened for auto
moblllng a great deal was said about the
benefits to be derived from an organiza
tion that would suggest routes, recommend
road improvement and prescribe rules for
automobillsts, and several times Mr. Van
Brunt made an effort to get the oommlttee
together, but so far as Is known nothing
ever camw of It. Mr. Van Brunt la now In
Europe and will not return in several
weeks. His sons. Harry and George, are in
charge In CounoU Bluffs. They are active
young men and are genuine automobile en
tuuelasts. Might It not be a good idea, if
consistent, to name either of these young
men as chairman of that oommlttee and
let the association be formed next week?"

gets the most pleasure out of automobiles,
the merchant who owns It and files around
over the country In It or the mechanic who
tinkers with it and tries it out in the neigh
borhood of the garage," said an automo
bile owner yesterday. "Certainly the man
of affairs who si's back In the tonneau
drinking in the delicious breexe, flashing his
eyes upon the grandeur of the landscape
b.-fore him, must get every drop of pleas
ure that is possible, but is It comparable
with the delight of the skilled fellow who
pulls her apart takes her to pieces, changes
piston rods, opens her valves, smooths the
rough places, oils her and lays his hand
upon her throttle aa he would upon a
laughing child, and sends her throbbing
here and there, slow, fast, up hill, down
hill, everywhere and In every way her
master? They Bay that no two cars of
even the same manufacture can be bandied
alike. One is sensitive, the other not. One
Is quick, the other slow to respond. One
barks, the other hums. What a charm I
there must be in all of this to the fellow
who knows it and feels it in every pulsa
tion of the engine. And think, these boys
can almost make on automobile climb a
tree."
Colonel Derlght has a friend named Cas
serty back east who owns a Locomobile,
one of the big sort. Casserty had as his
guests the other day two gentlemen from
Oklahoma. After showing them New York
from the tops of skyscrapers he took them
Into the big oar and started out The
Oklahomans did not become Interested un
til the machine began to tear off some
thing like fifty miles an hour, and the
motors were barking like Scotch Collies.
"This Is real life," they were saying when
an officer, who was following on a motor
cycle shouted above the roar of the car in
a New Tork voice, "Stop where you are."
The men only laughed.
Then when the officer was near enough
to hear, they shouted to "catch up" and
they would tow him In.
The officer was riding faster than he had
ever ridden, and waa busy moving up his
spark.
At last, seeing that he could not stop the
flying automobile, he begun to shoot.
This amused the westerners immensely,
but Caaaerty was trying to fly now. And
Just as he thought, the officer began to
pepper the rear tires. Suddenly one went
flat and then the other, and the big 'car
came to a standstill.
The westerners did not know what had
happened, and didn't care. They were
laughing like horees.
Casserty was Indignant when the officer
took them to the police station, but his
guests liked It all so well that they in
sisted that they would visit New Tork
again.
"Did you ever see an automobile hobo?"
asked George Relm, manager for Kimball.
"Well, the first one that I ever saw or
ever heard of made his apearance at our
garage last js-eek. He had a mate a man
of his own build, and evidently after his
own heart. They drove up in a Mercedes
car and dismounted. After brushing the
dust out of their nostrils they quietly be
gan to tske the engine apart. They worked
as If they were handling a baby. Then
they asked for some gasoline and paid for
It, and about S o'clock in the afternoon
poked out of town. The car In which they
rode was an 1W9 model, and they had im
provised a limousine to which they rode
end In which they slept. They left Chi
cago several weeks ago and are bound for
Denver and the Pacific coast. They are
skilled workmen and are capable of mak
ing plenty money, but they only do Jobs
in the small towns for as much as will
provide them food and gasoline. They
were asked if they were not afraid of
breaks before they reached the coast.
They replied that the way they handled the
car it would run another 100.000 miles.
And they were as careful with the old
thing as one would be with a sick child.
The car attracted, a great deal of attention
in the garage. The men wore regulation
clothing of the Knights of the Road, but
their faces were very clean. Time was no
object, and so long as they were able to
get out of town at bedtime they were all
right."
Fredrlckson is making extensive Im
provements to his garage on Farnam
street The partition has been removed and
the interior changed altogether. A sales
room 3&xf4 has been made which will be
one of the best in Omaha. It will be
lighted so the cars may be shown as they
are In the largest cities. The bulldlntf will
be provided with metal celling, burlap
wainscoting, etc. The office will be in the
rear of the salexroom. A large show
window will be put In so the cars may be
displayed from the street.
C. T. Louk received a message last week
that the Harmon had made at Indianapolis

minutes. A large shipment of Harmons
will be received in Omaha next week.
C. P. Louk has secured the agency for
the Uaynes cat, the eldest ' automobile
manufacturer in the United States. The

Kokomo, Ind., and the Haynes Is one
of the well known cars In that section of
the country.
Messrs. Butler Erkhlll returned from the

that next week a large shipment of these
cars will be in Omaha.
W. L. Huffman will leave next week to

fishing and hunting.
W. D. Hosford was In Lincoln last week
looking after the Velle exhibit to be made
at the state fair.
The Velie Automobile company has dis
continued the E. M. T. agency. That car

carrying dispatches from Major Oeneral
Leonard A. Wood, U. S. A., New York, to
Major Oeneral John F. Weston, U. S. A.,
San Francisco, in the Mitchell Ranger, is
making good time without accident. Of
course the worst part of the trip
is yet to come, as the desert
will be encountered within a few
days, when the trip will be anything
but a picnic. Driver Frank X. Zlrbies Is a
veteran In long distance runs, and first
became famous as a driver of endurance In
the twenty-four hour race at Milwaukee,
two years ago.
Oeorge Relm has Information that the
Cadillac "30" has made the trip from Syd
ney to Normanton. This is the first motor
car to cross the great Australian continent
under its own power, and the only one,
Inasmuch as two other cars which essayed
to make the trip with the Cadillac were
forced to abandon it.
The most important announcement of the
week In automobile circles was the news
of the extensive enlargements of the Oak
land Motor Car company's plant at Pon
tlac, Mich. By the requirements of the
Pontlac Buggy company property and ether
buildings are to be erected at once and the
company will have a capacity of 12,000
cars a year. The complete plant will oc
cupy twelve acres and have about 700,000
square feet of tpace.
Nesman, who drove the Stevens-Duryea
with a perfect score In the Hastings race,
Is an o'J racing man. He lowered the rec
ord of road ears at Daytona, Fla., and It
was there that Mr. Kimball engaged him.
At one time Nesman had charge ot the
Stevens-Duryea factory. He was one of
the wlnne.s In the Eagle Rock race, and
is never so delighted as when he Is fly
ing at a mile a minute.
The Goodyear air bottles for pumping
up tires made quite a hit with Omaha
motorists. The Powell Supply company
reports a big sale on them.
Another carload of Panhard oils in transit
to the Powell Supply company. This line
of lubricants has met with phenomenal
success.
