He also stood a silk handkerchief he had spread flat. Previous to his barrel stunts Red Wolf gave an opening act, realistic and historic. It was that of a Sioux chief, garbed in full war regalia, pitting cross-legged before a camp fire In front of his tepee smoking the Queer Indian pipe. He deliberately arose and "performed the "Spirit" dance and Invoked the favor of the i Great Spirit and began the war dance. 1 While in the midst ot this a rifle shot fang ouT and 'the Indian- leaped high In the air, fell over flat on his face and gave a realistic imitation of the death agonies.

This eventuated into a final effort in a spoken prayer In the Sioux language, with gestures toward the sky In pathetic appeal that the Indian might bo received by the Great Spirit Into the "Happy Hunting Ground," followed by the feigned dissolution ot the soul from the body. A return to the drama was quickly made when Red Wolf agilely leap ed to bis feet and with a graceful bow accepted the applause ot his i spectators. He then gave an interest-1 ing address on early Indian life, stut-, Ing among other things that the Ind- lan population of the United States Is increasing eo rapidly that the lat-j est official figures show there are within 1,000 of as many Indians berej as when Christopher coiumhus a in-covered America.
