Searching for the $4,000 in Yellow
Disks That Was Buried with Him.

Searching for the $4,000 in Yellow
Disks That Was Buried with Him.
A searching party will soon leave
Deadwood, S. D., to look for the grave
of Winding Hawk, Sioux chief who
died in 1854 and was buried with $50, 900
in gold by his side. Repeated attempts
have been made by prospectors during
the last few years to locate the old war
rior's resting place. but thus far with
out success.
The plans of the party now forming,
the exact date on which it will leave
Deadwood and the information on
which its hope is based are being kept
secret. That the explorers have better
reason than any who have preceded
them for thinking they will succeed in
their enterprise, is, however, confident
ly asserted.
According 10 the story as told in the
Black Hills, Winding Hawks stamp
ing ground for several years prior to
his death was in the country surround
ing the present site of Fort Laramie.
Some time before he died he and num-
Der of his comrades are said to have
''held UP" a government annuity am
bulance I'm which was $4,000 in cur
rency and like amount in gold. The
Indians were all familiar with the value
of the currency, and divided it equally
between them. Winding Hawk, so the
story goes, convinced them that the
coin was practically worthless. Still he
admitted that the gold pieces were
pretty trinkets, and offered to take the
lot in lieu of his share of the currency.
The other members of the party grant
ed his request, and the old chief car
ricd the treasure away to his tepee. He
died soon afterward, and, in accord
ance with the usual custom, was buried
with his fayorite pony. his finest bow
and arrows, and his new trinkets.
The old warriors who accompanied
him in the raid on the ambulance sub
sequently came to know the value OF
their friends share of the plumber, but
the Indian superstition that to violate
the grave of fellow member of the
tribe brings i'll fortune prevented any
attempt being made to recover the
treasure. Several times members of
the party have been prevailed on to
agree to guide prospecting parties to
the chiefs grave, on the superstition
that by permitting the white men to
disinter the money the latter should
themselves assume the responsibility
of violating the grave. At the last mo-
ment, however, their courage has in
evitably given out, and the searchers
have been compelled to give up the un-
dertaking.-St. Louis GlobeDemocrat.

Athenians ola and New,

Twenty-three hundred years ago the
Athenians were celebrated for exactly
the same qualities they are showing
row. They were tickle and brave,
quick-witted, and without tcnacity OF
purpose, always ready to rush into
danger and reader still to saddle the
blame for their defeats on their leaders.
1t was the bulldog grip of the Spartan
on his purposes that made old Greece
what it was in everything except higher
intellect and culture. The Spartans did
not have that. The Athenians did. but
it could not save Greece from ruin after
the Athenian spirit had got the upper
hand.--N. Y. World.
