A "pop-corn party" was given ono evening last week by Mrs. Council asa surprise to Col . and Mrs. Dyer. Tho word surprise had every elfcct that it implies, tor the Colonel and his lady knew nothing of what was to taicc place wheu they were invited to spend the evening with Mrs. Council. A fair number was pres ent at tho party, and quite a social time was had. "The merry jingle of sleigh-bells was hoard on our streets during tho recent snow." This is the expression that is being used by our) contemporaries up in Kansas. Well, wo had a few days of fair sleighing down hern in this sunny clime, too. Sleighs were scarce, how over, but the liverymen, Messrs. Campbell & Keller, improvised ono that answered tho purpose. Attached to a team of high step pers, ii was kept in use for a couple of days, and the merry jingle of bolls was also heard. " A man was shot last night 1" Tlioso wore tho words that greeted yo local as ho en tered Ids boarding place on last Tuesday morning, and further investigation verified tho statement.. It was learned that Sam Bus kirk had been shot the night previous, while at an Indian dance a few hundred yards oast of tho Agency proper. The shooting did not provo fatal, however. Buski k was found ly lug in the oltloo of Campbell & Roller's livery establishment early on Tuesday morning and to tho reporter he madotho following state ment: "My name is Sam Buslcirk. Last night I heard tho sound of a drum and 1 went to tho teepee to spo tho Indians danco; stayed till about 11 o'clock; just before I started home Washeo (an Indian scout came in, and ho be ing drunk, tho squaws wore afraid of him, as lie had on his six shooter; some one took it from him; then I started away with him to prevent trouble; when a short distance away .from tho shoo-makor'a house, I fired three- shots into the air; then we took a drink ; don't know who had tho bottle; jnt as wo were Starting on, 1 was shot by noun- ono unknown to myscll, from behind; the ball struck my right leg just below tho knoe joint ami it pass. ed through and lodged in my boot leg. I fell to the ground and Washoe left me; an Indian came out, by whom I sent for a white man who camo and assisted mo to tho livery sta ble " "Were you not intoxicated?" interrogated the reporter. "1 was not" ho replied, "as I took only two swallows of wine du ring tho evening " Were you not aware that it was very in discrete on the part of yourself to attend these Indian dances esp'cially when they had liquor?" "'an tlio final ijuestion asked in a Mothodistic tone of the wounded man. "Well," he stammered, "I wan toil to see one, but now I have st en enough of them, ami it will be a cold day when 1 attend anothor In dian dance." The above is, in substance, the particulars of the affair as told by Busklrk himself. Dr. DoBra was called to dress tho wound, and the bono through which tho ball passed was found i to bo broken. Tho lima was reset, and al though tho wound is an ugly one, it is im proving as well as could bo expected. Latiju. Inhumation in the worst form has set in and tho Doctor says that tho chances for tho patient's recovery are decidedly against him. A diagnosi. of another trouble has since been reached, which place the wounded man in a very critical condition, under these circumstances.
