The bodies OF % Chippewa Indians,
bucks, squAws and pappooses, lie upon
the baked sands between here and OPP
stead, a email settlement on the eastern
shores OF Lac Mile Lacs. They are
scattered over 10 miles Of country.
Such is the story brought by a courier,
who for thrse days and nights has been
forcing his way throug the tangled
skein of charred logs, trunks ana roots.
He passed through the Mile Lacs reser-
vatien and encountered many small
blazes, which are destroying what the
fierv cyclone OF Saturday left. The In
dians left their reservation two months
ago and built q hunting lodge along one
OF the forks OF Shadridge creek. Chief
Wauoouta was the "biK chief" oil the
party, and he perished with his fol-
lowers
The first body found by the courl or
was that of an Infant about year old.
Theu came those Of two sQuaws and tive
children. They had evidently turned
west when the flames swept through
the forest. A ride Of mile brought
him to & pile Of ashes, which marked
the site Of the hunting camp. There
had been one tspee, the shriveled raw
hide thongs marking the place where II
stood. Around IL were the ruins OF
half dozen brentwood bark shantles,
and protrudlng from the ashes were the
fused barrels OF rifles and shot guns.
Then for five miles the pathway was
lined with eharred bodies. The courier
counted 23.

She will File q Gross-PetItion Alleging
Gross Violation of the Marriage Vows
on the Part of aer Husband and Will
Deny All His observation-disclosures says
Drayton's Allegations Are All False.
New YORK, Septem Der THE World
tomorrow will say, in connection with
the Drayton divorce case:
There are several points to Mrs.
Drayton's story, and every point has
the interest Of being new and now made
for the first time. TO begin:
Mrs. Drsyton not only does not regret
the bringing OF the divorce suit by her
husband but received the news OF it
gladly, and arranged that the papers
might be served or her expeditiously.
Mrs. Drayton will not only contest
the divorce suit, but will fight to the
bitter end. Mrs. DraytOn will answer
Mr.. Drayton's petition for divorce with
a cross petition alleging unfaithfulness
on his part and gross violation OF his
marriage vows. She will enter a
general and specific denial Of all his
charges against her, and will bring
what her friends regard as proof posi-
tive that she has been mallgneo, ono
precipitated the divorce proceedings by
deliberately bringing suit for custody
OF her children. All these facts are
true beyond peradVenture, her friends
say, and when they are confirmed by
the fling Of her cross petition and by
the testimony az the trial the conhrma-
ton will be so sensational that the
statement Of the bare facts will seem
very tame.
Hallett Alsop Barrows, the cores
pondeRt in the case, was seen at his
