THE FALL OF BLACK HAWK, Illustrating a period in American hißtory full of exciting conflicts, between the Indians and the white settlers. SYNOPSIS: This story concerns a treaty made in the year 1830 with the Pox and Sacs Indian tribes, whose conflicts with the white settlers had become serious, whereby the" Indians relinquished their claim to all lands east of the Mississippi, leaving them free for white settlers. Chief Black Hawk signs this treaty against his own settlers ; and when the rush of the white settlers to the ceded land sets in there are continual conflicts be tween Black Hawk's braves and the whites. News of the trouble reaches Lincoln's home, and he raises a volunteer company which he marches off to the camp of General W. Scott, who has taken the field against Black Hawk. The struggle at this stage is deadly earnest, and Black Hawk becomes infuriated through a number of drunken Rangerß firing on his braves. There are many vivid scenes showing the violent but ineffectual attempts of the Indians to carry Fort Crawford. Later the Indians succeed in setting fire to the fort. The defenders open the gate and make a desperate and successful sortie. The Indians are routed and Black Hawk is made a captive. POPULAR PRICES—Front Seats 6d, Back Seats Is. Mr H. Christain ...
