A Noted Indian Fighter
Ansell’s Wild West show gave two performances at Athletic park on Tuesday afternoon and evening. The show assisted the band boys at their entertainment last evening, and this afternoon and evening will again appear at Athletic park.
Col. Case, manager of the show, is probably the best known Indian scout in the United States. He was with Reno in the Custer fight, and is one of the few remaining survivors of that awful massacre.
Custer and 285 men were attacked by 10,000 Sioux under Sitting Bull. Custer and his command were killed. Every victim except Custer was scalped, the general's body being spared by orders of the Indian chief, who said he was a "brave man," and should not be scalped.
Reno killed his horses, making breastworks of them, and kept the Indians off until the arrival of reinforcements.
Col. Case does free-ball rifle shooting and while with the Buffalo Bill show earned the title of the best shot in the business.
Personally he is a very agreeable gentleman, and is full of interesting reminiscences of a lifetime spent in the border wars of the country.
Lines to a Soldier
Howard Gates who is soldiering with Uncle Sam's troops in the Philippines, writes the following verses on an illustrated postal card to Oscar Heying. The card bears a picture of the transport Thomas in Manila bay. The lines follow:
He's a driller and drinker;
He's a gambler and a sport;
He's a hard old hand at hiking
But at work he's rather short.
But the devil likes his fighting and the hearty way it's done;
He's a cross between a Christian and the

writes the following verses on an illustrated postal card to Oscar Heying.
The card bears a picture of the transport Thomas in Manila bay. The lines follow:
He's a driller and drinker;
He's a gambler and a sport;
He's a hard old hand at hiking
But at work he's rather short.
But the devil likes his fighting and the hearty
way it's done;
He's a cross between a Christian and the
devil's only son.
He has vices like the most of men and virtues
like a few,
But when you trump his mettle you will find
its ring is true.
He's a mixture made of capsicum with fire to
make it hot.
On his record as a soldier there is not a single blot.
He's a khaki colored cyclone with the lightning in its heart.
And he never yet has turned his head nor
played the coward's part;
He's honored by the title of a soldier and a man;
He is Uncle Samuel's nephew and he's all American.
Howard states the verses are not original with him, but whoever penned them, they are worth reproducing in the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Accident to Auto Party
Dr. Will Flood, C. F. Grim and H.
Weisel of this city and M A. Flood of
Santa Ana had a bad accident while returning from Trabuca canyon on Sunday. The party was at the Forks,
trout fishing, when it commenced to rain. They concluded then to start for home and after passing safely the dangereous points in the mountain road,
they reached Santa Ana, when their machine turned completely over and threw them out. All the occupants escaped injury. M A. Flood perhaps had the most miraculous escape of all.
When the others members of the party picked themselves up they found him under the machine in a kneeling position, and unable to move, with the machine apparently on his back. His shoulders and head were near the engine, which was still running, and he could not move in any direction. The machine was lifted and Mr. Flood was released. The party were drenched from their long ride in the rain and although thankful that they escaped serious injury were not pleased with the way in which the trip terminated.

Mrs. Rule said she gave the sons the deed as the result of a request made by her husband before his death.

Preparing for Tomatoes
We have twenty wagonloads of cabbage standing in front of the packing house right now and no market for it."
This was the answer given by Manager Ross of the Whittier branch of the California Vegetable union in answer to a question in regard to the cabbage look.
Mr. Glass stated further that he had need to take 8 carloads of cabbage on the growers of this district this week and so far had been able to sell two carloads.
and simple.
The central office of the union offers no encouragement whatever to the growers. At present it is impossible to sell cabbage.
The general opinion as to the cause of the present conditions is the financial situation. Thousands of men in the east and middle west are out of work and can afford to buy only necessities. This and high freight rates are the leading factors in the situation as far as the California growers are concerned. Of course, the unexpected may happen. Prices may come up but there is so little present prospect of such good fortune that acres of cabbage in the East Whittier and La Habra districts will be plowed under. Some of this is already begun. The total shipments up to date last year was over 60 carloads, whereas about 35 have been sent out so far this year.
Coming on top of the loss of the tomato crop, ranchers are pretty blue. Many of them, however, have gone to work putting out tomatoes again this year, but not so extensively as last season, so that the acreage will be from one-third to one-half less than last year.
