A White I)og Feast Suppressed
With Pawnee llill's Wild West.
It is no easv matter to control seventy
to a hundred Indians, especially when
they belong to four or five different
tribes. Each tribe has its dances and
feasts, the best known beiug the War
Dance, the Sun, the Snake, the Corn
and the dance thut invaribly takes
place just before the hunt begins. The
most gruesome of all these, however, is
the white Dog Feast or Dance. The
government has suppressed all of the
' most vicious of these enstomfe, but that
• does not prevent the Indians from try
. ing to celebrate whenever they can. It
seems just before the Pawnee Bill Wild
' West left winter quarters to go :>n the
' road, a contingent of Indians with the
Wild West decided to celebrate -the
: White Dog Feast. The red men were
j in a large building by themselves when
! they got the feast move on. According
r to the rites of the dance a white dog is
I suspended above them, around which
they dance in their peculiar way, each
endeavoring to grasp the liver of the
f animal with his teeth while it is still
alive and disemljowled. The custom is
' one of the most hideons and barbarous
f of all their rites, and Pawnee Bill
- checked it just in time to save the poor
. canine's life. As it was it took the
chief of police and a squad of his "men
to convince the red men that white dog
'' feasts do not go in Pennsylvania.
Pawnee Bill's show will exhibit at
r Butler, Saturday Oct. 4.

New Use lor Paraftlne Wax.
d A new and important use for Refined
is Paraffine Wax seems to have been dis
r, covered by a prominent, resident of
r, Ohio, living near Lancaster, who had
I. two trees badly damaged by storm, one
1- being a maple and tile other an apple.
8, In each case a large limb was broken
down from the trunk, but still attached
to it. The limbs were propped up and
v fastened securely with straps, very much
lf as a broken leg might I>e fastened with
p splints, and then melted refined wax
n roured into and over all the cracks.
'® The "surgical operation" was entirely
® successful. The Paraffine prevented
* the escape of the sap. kept out the rain
' c and moisture which would have rotte<l
the trees, prevented the depredations ol
10 insects, and the limbs seem thus fai
to be perfectly re-attached to the trees

* dition of the cream of Anthony Hope's
genius, "The Prisoner of Zenda." The
story is, to a greater or less decree fa
miliar to all. and its intense situations,
its episodes of thrilling adventures, so
originally conceived and brilliantly ex
ecuted, have made the play the one suc
cessful romance of the age.
-The same scenic splendors that
signalized the New York production

Shipman Bros, yvho are directing the
present tour.

story so pure and so tru-- to human life
ard the tragic moments that come to
the life of so many, that it goes straight
hotpe to every heart. There is no rant,
no effort made to di ,uv sympathy by
any knoyvu stage trick, for it speaks
direct to the heart. It resembles no
other play.

Nell Gwyn is one of the most charm
ing and enchanting characters in
English history There is a certain
yvholesomeness and womanliness about
her that makes us forget, or rather
overlook her frailties, and endears us to
her. We owe our earliest introduction
to Nell Gwyn to Peppys, one of the
liveliest and most precise diarists with
whom English history is acquainted.
Few novelties escaped nim, for he never
allowed his love of money to interfere
with the gratification of his yvislies.
