SINGULAR SUPERSTITION
Traditional Traits as Develop
 ed in the Recent Fight.

The question hss been frequently asked if the Iudisn reported killed in the fret skirmish near Lsng's ranch on the line, between Lieut.. Averii' and scouts. sx-.hsrifi Slaughter and the Fisher brothers with the Indiana. and subsequent capture of .he Pspoose as stated in the PRosrEcror, had ever been found.
 Mir. Arthur Fisher of whom the ques- ton was asked stated ,S a reporter tJ- dsy that during 6 hunt fer the Indian known to wounded. the trail was traced by the scouts and himself for nearly ? miles from the Indian camp to where singularly enough, hne field glsss wss found slso' it's scabord and par of moecssins of ihs Indian The glass was broke in piece, and hamm. red with rocks while the scab- bord and moccssins were GU. into shreds with some sharp knife. The scouts stated it was certain ,ign of the Indians dssth as the traditional GUS tom of throwing sHsy tbsir m0cassins and wearing apparel fret cutting them into shreds when an Indian is about to shufii. of from ,his mundane sphere was followed to the letter.
 However positive .heir Indian broth- CT is dead and undisputable signs O! having been carried UE by four com rsdes ss seen ty tracks. the sconts absolutely refuse to hunt the dead mans grave, having . most super stitious dread of some dire super nsturs! calamity or visitation should they disclcse tine whereabouts Of tine body. They will give all the in!or- matiun and directions but should the grave be found it is exceedingly doubt iul If any oF the scouts could be in ducsd to approach within 100 ysrds.
 From the point where the dises.ded articles were found, . search for a quarter of s mile about and following the trail until it became otlitersted proved futile to find the place oi in- termsnt and when the footsteps of the searching party were retrseei toward camp tho Indian sconts were much relieved.
 The finding oi the leggins and Iuiv- vers of the wounded Indian supposed to alec have been killed st the second and recen. skirnish, ss published yes- terday, is also given ss a req on by the scouts for their beii-i that the Indian is also dead and assert the dyIng udian or friends were prevented from cutting them into shrsds because of the fact the soldiers were near and in fear ef being cro sded did DO: val. to cut the articles into .hreds.
 l. may slso be mentioned here that the sud band were ssperate one from the fret who were footed May 10. the latter in ell pr, Liabilities coming from the reservation to join the main camp ss they were eproute there.

have nothing but respect for the Professor
and only sympathize with him. The jury

The first witness called was Geo. jackson,

that "in. .the meantime we will read some

objection. THE objection is overruled,"
