Too Slow.


Indiana have their own way of watching,
and when serving with white soldiers do
not take kindly to sentry or picket duty.
An anecdote of Pawnee Indian picket on
Powder river, reported in War Path and

taste for the methods of the pale face.
One afternoon in March Lieut.. Schwatka
was ordered to make detail for picket
duty. and as the Pawnee scouts were doing
nothing, it was thought expedient TO give
them a turn. A sergeant took half a dozen
of them with the regular guard, and hav-
ing placed the picket post, explained to the
Indian chief as well as he could that he
and his men would have two hours on and
four hours off duty until the guard was re
lieyed.
"Tu lend you my watch" said he to the
Pawnee, and striking match he pointed
to the dial "It's now o'clock. Wber
the shorter hand moves two points youi

"Hey, hey, goodp' answered the Indian
| and stalked away on his rounds. The ser
eeant, being fatigued, dropped into a fitfu

guard. Suddenly he was aroused by tn
| pavnee's hand. The chief was standing
over him. the watch in his hand.
