LIVED IN THE WILD VEST
Some of the Experiences of Coiohe'
George Il. Bartlett of This city.

Colonel George e. Bartlett, who Is at
present with the Marlin Firearms COM
panv of this city as a tester of weapons,
has had a very interesting ana plctur7
esuue career He was for several years
chief of government scouts in the SIOUX
Indian region and was United states
marshal at the Pine Ridge agency and
also kept a trading store at that agency
He knows the Sioux language well ana
has made translations from it. lie was
at the battle of Wounded Knee and
has very interesting collection OF pho-
tographs of the field taken Immediately
after the battle and showing clearly the
devastation of the fight. He has also
brought with him from the west most
remarkable collection Of specimens OF
Indian handiWork, some of which nave
probably no equal in any similar col
lection Especially notable is vest
made by an Indian squaw and inlaid in
the most artistic manner with porcupine
ouills in different colors and designs.
This vest, while it cannot be bought is
supposed to have value of at least
5000. There is also a pair of gauntlet
gloves decorated with most expert ana
attractive D9du WOlh L lie WI ia 'iiN
glove and the vest causes one to wonder
how with the crude tools at their COM
mand the Indian women are able to do
such artistic work.
Colonel Bartlett has also saddle
which was the property of horse thief
whom he was pursuing. Colonel Bart
lett does not go into details of what
happened to the horse thief but he has
the saddle scratched with the spurs of
the horse thief ,as he as falling out OF
it.
Among his other curios is an elabo-
rate pipe of peace, a fine specimen OF
a Sioux stone war hammer, lengthy and
queer earrings made out of shells. an In
dian woman's belt, made of leather and
German silver with much labor and art,
and one of the celebrated shirts used in
the ghost dance which proceeded the
fight of Wounded Knee.
Colonel Bartlett's Indian name was
Wounded Knee, and he numbers among
his friends many of the prominent
Sioux. At one time in his career he was
a conspicuous figure in the theatrical
representation of life in the Wild West.
In spite of his adventurous and roman
tic career has settled down contentedly
in New Haven and feels that SO long as
the west is not the wild and exciting
place that it was when he was most ia
miliar with it, he might as well be
where there is real civilization. He Is
a member of the New Haven Gun club
and has made many friends since COM
ing to New Haven.
