Efficiency.
1
Probably many people who at
tended the recital given last night
by Mme Marie Rappold and Mr.
Mario Laurenti at the Boyd theater
were at first puzzled and disappoint
ed when they discovered a phono
graph cabinet occupying the center
of the stage.
They hardly were reassured when
Mr. Glockner appeared onthe stage
and commenced to talk about Ke
Creations." It finally became ' ap
parent that the phonograph was at
least to receive assistance from the
singers, bat even then the mental
outlook was not exactly bright.
Mr. Glockner explained that the
purpose of the recital was to illus
trate that Thomas A. Edison, after
years of work had achieved his
.ideal of perfecting a musical in
strument which would actually re
create music so- that the re-creation
would be indistinguishable from
the original.
This was a broad claim, but it was
established before the evening was
over, for the artists actually stood
beside the New Edison Phonograph
and performed in unison with Mr.
Edison's Re-Creation so-called
of their performances. This would
have proved little as the ' artists
might easily have overbalanced the
tone of the instrument- swallowed
it up so to speak; but they did
more or, to be accurate, less. They
paused from time to time, apparent
ly at random and permitted their
re-createa pertormances to De
heard alone. This gave an oppor
tunity to compare one with the oth
er and it is no more than just to
state that there was no discernible
difference in tone quality.

Pershing Pursues Savages Into the Bad Lands
Famous Battle of Wounded Knee.
An Indian messiah. known under
the name of Wovoka. Kwchitsuasr
and Jack Wilson, a Piute, came into
Nevada. He claimed to have been
to heaven, and from him sprang up
new religion, included in the
ritual of which was the "ghost
dance." .v The religion spread like
wildfire, . its proselytes number
ing thousands. Short Bull, a chief
of the Sioux from the Rosebud
reservation, and other Sioux dele
gates from other reservations visited
the messiah. They returned about
March, 1890.
Ghost Dance Menace. '
Soon after their return . "ghost
dances" started, dances where the
Indians danced until they worked
themselves into a frenzy and fell ex
hausted, only to regain conscious
ness even more frenzied and fanati
cal. Short Bull preached the doc
trine and advent of the messiah in
the Rosebud reservation; Chief Red
Cloud preached it in the Fine- Ridge
reservation Chief Sitting Bull
preached it in the Sanding Rock
reservation, Chief Kicking Bear
preached it in the Cheyenne River
reservation. On October 9. 1890,
Kicking Bear went to Standing
Rock by invitation of bitting Bull
and inaugurated the dance on Grand
River.
Excitement grew in the reserva
tions. Efforts were made to stop
the "ghost dances." The dances
could not be stopped. Reports of
the most alarming nature startled
the country and Indian agents called
upon the military authorities for aid,
The War department finally took
charge of the situation, and thus it
was, on November ii, 1890, tele
graphic orders were received by Col
onel Carr of the Sixth cavalry noti
fying him to prepare for a change
of station and to take the held m the
Dakotas.
Tack Pershing, with all the other
officers of the Sixth, made hasty ar
rangements for the transfer, and, on
December 1, final orders were re
ceived. The troops entrained imme
diately and proceeded north through
New Mexico.- Colorado, Kansas and
Nebraska. They detrained Decem

eastern slope of the Black Hills.

With the arrival of the Sixth cav

General. Miles meantime had been
placed in charge of the department
of the Missouri and was ready for
any eventuality. He established his
headquarters at Rapid City and the
outbreak of the Sioux war found Jiim
prepared.
The sixth cavalry, with second
Lieutenant John Joseph Pershing,
immediately after detraining on De
cember 9, 1890, at Rapid City, S. D.,
was given a leading part in the
bloody Sioux campaign.
Indians equal in numbers to the
total force of troops in the field,
fully 3,000 Indians, indeed, led by
Chiefs Short Bull, Kicking Bear and
others had fled from their homes on
the Pine Ridge and Rosebud reser
vations and gathered in the Bad
Lands, threatening to precipitate the
bloodiest Indian war in our history.
Sitting Bull Changes Mind.
Three days later, December 12,
Colonel Drum, in command at Fort
Yates, was ordered to arrest Chief
Sitting Bull, who was in camp on
the Standing Rock reservation. Sit
ting Bull, the government knew,
planned mischief. All his life he
had been an irreconcilable hostile,
ever plotting uprisings of the In
dians. - It was at his camp and on
his invitation that Kicking Bear had
organized the first "Ghost Dances,"
which were a part of the ritual of

the messiah craze and lareelv re
sponsible for the present unrest. The
government believed that with the
removal of Sitting Bull war with the
bioux might be averted. And it
might have been if Sitting Bull had
been taken alive. But fate decreed
otherwise.
Colonel Drum made arrangements
for the arrest of the chief with
Agent James McLaughlin of the
Standing Rock reservation, and on
Monday, December IS, Lieutenant
Bull Head, an Indian officer.' with
43 Indian policemen and volunteers,
reached Sitting Bull's camp. The
chief agreed to surrender peacefully
and, to return with' his captors to
Fort Yates. Everything was appar
ently going well and in spite of the
fact that Sitting Bull's followers,
some 150 in number, had entirely
surrounded the police, none in the
arresting party, though somewhat
alarmed, felt evil portended.
ihen, of a sudden, Sitting Bull
changed his mind. He called upon
his followers to rescue him. Catch
all.

the Bear fired a shot. Lieutenant
Bull Head fell, but not before he
had returned the fire. He and Red
Tomahawk discharged their guns at
Sitting Bull, and the famous chief
was killed instantly.
The sanguinary battle which fol
lowed devolved into a desperate
hand-to-hand fight, with the Indian
police outnumbereed three to one.
Bravely overcoming these odds,
however, the police finally succeed
ed in driving their assailants into the
near-by timber, where they were
held . at bay until the arrival of
troops, who quickly and completely
routed the hostiles. ' .
The death of Sitting Bull aroused
the Indians of the Bad Lands.
Pershing in Field.
From December IS, 1890, until
February 2, 1891, Jack Pershing was
in the field, ever battling against
the renegade Sioux. Skirmish after
skirmish, fight after fight followed
in quick succession.
The weather, the terrain, every
thing, it seemed, favored the In
dians. There were deep snows and
intense cold; there were fastnesses
in the Bad Lands almost impreg
nable. Yet no difficulties were too
great for Jack Pershing to sur
mount. He knew how to care for
his men and he knew how to care
for his horses. None better, it is
said, could follow a trail than Jack
Pershing; none better meet the Inr
dian at his own game and win every
point. The campaign, from start
to finish, meant long, forced
marches, often in blinding blizzards.
Jack Pershing always accomplished
his purpose and attained his objec
tive. The Sixth cavalry . performed a
feat during the campaign which is
still recalled with pride. On De
cember 24 a message was received
that Big Foot was moving south on
the Deep Fork trail. "Boots and
saddles" was sounded and in half
an hour Colonel Carr had forced a
crossing of( the Cheyenne river
through floating ice and was in
pursuit of the Indians.
Those who participated in this
chase never forgot it. Such was
the cold that even the alkaline pools
were frozen.
Christmas morning found a de
tachment of the Sixth on "The Pin
nacle," one of the highest points
in the Bad Lands and from which
could be seen the country for miles
around. Came word a few days
later that Big foots band had at
tacked' the Seventh cavalry, and
troops of the Sixth cavalry were
ordered concentrated at Wounded
Knee creek. By forced marches
the orders were carried out. There
followed, on December 29, the bat
tle o,f Wounded Knee. It was the
death knell of the Indian uprising.
For months afterwards, however,
the Sixth cavalry was left to guard
the iSad Lands and a flank of the
Pine Ridge reservation. Every day
jacK rersning roae patrol, witn now
and then a skirmish with small
bands of hostiles still roaming at
large. The Indians finally sur
rendered, though, and the Sioux
campaign passed into history.

Vaudeville Actress
Tells Police She
Was Left Stranded
The disastrous finale of a week's
honeymoon was related to police
yesterday by Mrs. Virginia Bush
man, 31 years old, better known as
Virginia Schultz, a vaudeville ac
tress. Mrs. Bushman was the widow of
C. A. Schultz. until she met a man
who gave his name as Gerald Bush
man a week ago in Saginaw. Mich..
and married him. Bushman, was a
suave man, whose appearance fairly
spoke wealth, Mrs. Bushman says.
Ihe Kushmans came to Omaha
for their honeymoon, stopped at aN
good hotel and lived happily until
yesterday, when Mr. Bushman
told his wife he was going out to
look for a rooming house.
After he had gone,' Mrs. Bushman
says, she discovered that he had
taken all of her money, several hun
dred dollars, with him. When he
failed to return, she notified police.
Mrs. Bushman telegraphed her
brother-in-law, who in turn tele
graphed her $75..
Mrs. Bushman and her little
daughter, Evelyn, who is with her,
will go back into vaudeville, she
said.

"Asuinaldo. the Head-Hunter,"

appearance in court created a sensa

A small tuft of kinky hair domi
nated his ivory dome like a. cork in
whisky flask. His shiny scalp
and brick-colored features gave him
the aspect of something between a
head-hunter, shooting gallery
proprietor and an election boss.
"Man names Ike Mokes, he told
the court. "I jes get down on mah

Her Husband Delighted Overt
Wonderful Improvement
After Taking Tanlac. -
W W W f f 99
"Yes, sir, I can recommend Tan
lac, because it has gotten my wif(
to where she is in better healtK
than for the past four years," saii
William E. Edmonds, of 2221 E,
Ninth St., Kaqsas City, Mo., whiU
in the Owl Druj? Store in Kansas;
City, recently. Mr. Edmonds is an
iron and steel worker employed by
Wells Bros.
"My wife suffered a lot from
stomach trouble and nervous indU
gestion," continued Mr. Edmond&j
"She didn't seem able to eat any
thing much and it just looked like)
the little she did eat soured on heff
stomach and formed gas that
pressed so against her heart at times
she could hardly breathe. She was
badly constipated and had to bm
taking something all the time for?
this trouble, and she also suffered
a - great deal with headaches and
was so awfully nervous the least
little noise out of the ordinary
would upset her. Finally, she got in.
such a run down condition she was
hardly able to do her housework and
was so bad off sometimes she, was
laid up in bed for four weeks at a
time. She doctored a lot, but noth
ing she took gave her more than
passing relief and it was just a drag
for her to get about the house.'
"She was in just this condition'
when we read 8ome statements from
people who claimed they had gotten
relief from troubles just like my
wife's by taking Tanlac, so w
decided she ought to give it a trial.
Well, sir, that medicine just seemed
to do her good almost from the
start, because her appetite began to
pick up and her nerves didn't seem
to be on edge like they had been
so she continued to tike Tanlaa
until now she has a fine appetite
and can eat anything she wants.
She has been relieved of constipa
tion and her nerves are in fin
shape and she can sleep the whole
night through like a little child, and
gets up in the morning lookina
bright and happy and can do her
housework with ease. I .can eer
tainly recommend Tanlac for stonw
ach trouble, because it is the only
medicine we have ever found that
would reach my wife's case."
