Oyermsu mine At the iime-beiug GU
the night shifs-and there was no one
about the house but Mrs. Moore, who OF
course could only allow the thieves 20
take whatever they saw fit TO carry off.
They were on horseback, and the horses
thev rode were without shoes, which Is
about the only proof that the robbers
were really Indians. They told Mrs.
Moore 10 broken EngliSh that they would
return in three nights, when, unless she
pad plenty OF money, they would kill
her. They kept their word and return-

galloped away without obtaining any-
thing 10 the shape Of Pluuder. Most OF
the Indian camps 10 the vicinity have
been visited, but none OF the Indians
have been recognized. At n camp u
pony was found which Mrs. Moore thinks
she recognizes as one ridden by one OF
the party of robbers.
