TO-HEE DEAD.
The Blind Chief of Towns Passes to the
Happy Hunting Ground.


Special to the Gazette.
TAHLEQUAH, 1, t, Feb. 2S.-From a gen
tleman just in from the Iowa reservation it
is learned that the blind chief of the Iowa
nation died last week. His name was To-
hee, and he was descendant of the famous
war chief BlackaHawk. To-hee was buried
with the; honors of his tribe and with
much ceremony. Upon hill W thin sight
of the Iowa village a grave was dug. The
dead chief was then placed in a wagon sit
ting upright, dressed in his best buckskin,
and wrapped in his handsomest blanket as
one about TO take a journey. The grave
was about four feet deep and place was
fixed for the blind chief to set upon, his
feet stretching out before him as though
taking rest. Near his right side was
placed food and at his left brewed coffe, to
be within easy reacha should he need re.
freshments on his long journey to the
happy hunting grounds. On the topmost
bough of venerable oak a yellow dog was
hung, together with the chiefs cast-off
habiliments. A pony each was given to
the two pail bearers-a young brave and
weeping maiden. The dog on the tree
howled, the braves chanted and the squaws
wept to appease the Great Spirit and win
clemency for the dead. The friendly pale
faces-neighboring farmers-looked on the
solemn scene with curiosity. AS each
brave spoke his encomium as tribute to
the virtues of the departed, Kirwin Muir
ray, the interpreter, repeated the same to
the whites in English, and they, too, felt
the presence of the Great Unknown.

In The GAZETTE a few days since was
printed an item in regard to the phenom-
inal growth of the new miningcamp, Creole,
Col, where such rich silver deposits were
found A couple of young men of Fort
Worth by the names of Willis and Mason,
who have been imbued with spirit of GO
ing west and growing up with the country,
have decided to go to Creole, and left yes
terday over the Santa Fe. The Santa Fe
New Mexican says the rush of people in
there is unprecedented in the record of any
camp, and the issue of the 10th inst. states
that the daily influx will fall little less than
one-thousand people. To accommodate the
people going to Creole, trains from Denver
and Pueblo are running in three or four
sections. Saturday 1000 Creole tickets were
sold in Denver and 500 at Pueblo, and it is
said the rush from other points is quite in
proportion. One of the principal reasons
for this unusual rush is that the courts
have decieed in town site contest, and the
state sale of lots has been commenced.
