Barton received 5000 for the job, but it
involved the digging up OF the
corpse from the desert grave,
and was 30 gruesome that
he does not care to repeat his expert

story Of the tragic incidents in connec'

''Sorensen, whose family lived in Ana.

One morning at about o'clock he ape
peared in our camp. and announced
that be was going exploring on
back that night, but he didn't come,
go the next day myself and partner,
Burlngame, with two Piute Indians,
set out ON his trail. The Piutec per.
sisted that it was no use, that the man
had got into the desert and was dead,
but we urged them on. They stuck to
the trail like hounds, where We couldn't
see the least thing.

which the man hsd climbed over.
Right along side WAS Willow creek, q
rushing Htroam. Then we knew he
was crazy. He had got 80 before he
came near tho stream, elao he would
not have climbed over the log when it
was only two or three feet around i.
The Piuies said then he was On the
desert dead. One OF them ran ahead
with his hand shading his eyes. L zee
him., he said, end he ran harder. Sure
enough he was there, dead, with little
brueh around him aud entirely naked
with the exception OF one sock.
The ground was hard and We had to
60 10 or II miles to get picks. We
buried him even with the ground, and
piled rocks on to keep the coyotes off.
A couple of months later, which
was about Thanksgiving day, hs
family wanted me to go and get
the body. 1t was necessary for
Identification. because of the insurance

CHICAGO, jan. S.--Three menbera OF
the Fiftesnth infantry, stationed at Fort
Sheridan, are nursing bad wounds to-
day, the result OF an encounter with
peace officers of the village OF Fort
Sheridan. For some time the citizens OF
the little village have been compelled to
listen to most distressing noises at night,
whenever the boys from the fort camo
in for an hours recreation.
The regular programme of amusement
with certain OF than is, first, to get into
a crowd, and second, to give faithful
performance on etrsets of the Sioux
ghost dance. The practice has been
going on for some time, but the town
marshal has never been able to identity
the disturbers.
Last night he WAS more fortunate.
He had seen about Is soldiers come into
the village late in the evening under the
leadership OF Sergeant o. Rourke. He
expected trouble and he found it. As
soon rs the boys had jollisd them-
selves to the right degree they
set out for the barracks. tear
ing the air into shreds with thsir
exubersnt yells. Marshal Gordon and
Policeman Cowly, by swift detour,
confronted the squad and demanded
order. The answer was swift blow
from the nearest blue sleeve.
Both marshal and police man toppled
over, and when they found blows still
raining upon them Marshal Gordsn drew
his gun. The first man who approached
he shot in the head. The wounded
soldier was carried away by his com.
rades and this gave the marahal and
policeman time to retreat.
The two officers had not gone far,
however, before the whole gang set Out
after them. The marshal shot twice
more and struck two more soldiers, one
of whom was wounded in the side and
the other in the shoulder. These were
hurried away to the barracks before the
marshal could collect sufficient force
among the angerei citizens to continue
the chase,
