canyons of the hills in search of fisb
or game, and came back unmolesteS.
Escorts reported that they sometimes
marched all day long side by side with
hunting bands of Sioux, mile away;
and often little parties, squaws and
boys and young men, would ride con-
fideptly over and beg for sugar, coffee,
Notwithstanding and ride off with
their plunder in the best of spirits and
with all apparent good feeling. And
yet the great war chief of the Brules-
Sintogalislla-Spotted Tail, the white
mans friend, gave solemn warning not
to trust the Ogallallas. "Red Clouds
heart is bad" he said. "He and his
people are moving from the resrva-
tions to the mountains. They mean
trouble" Old traders like Folsom
heard and needed, and Folsom himself
fastened to Fort Frayne the very week
that Burleigh and his escort left for
Warrior Gap. Visiting at the ranch of
his son in a beautiful nook behind the
Medicine Bow mountains, the veteran
trader heard tidings from an Indian
brave that filled him with apprehen-
sion, and he hurried to the fort
rs it true" he asked, that the gov
ernment means to establish a post at
Warrior Gap? Is it true that Maj. Bur-
leigh has gone thither" And when
told that it was, and that only Capt,
Brooks troop had gone as an escort
Folsom's agitation was extreme. Colo.
nG, said he to the post comman,.rr,
'solemnly l have tried to warn tae gem
eral of the danger of that move. have
told him that all the northern tribes
are leaguing now, that they have deter
mined TO keep to themselves the Big
Horn country and the valleys to the
north. 1t will take 5000 men to hold
those three posts against the Sioux,
and you've barely got 500. l warn you
that any attempt to start another post
up there will bring Red Cloud and all
his people to the spot. Their scouts are
watching like hawks even now. Iron
Spear came to me at my sons ranch
last night and told me not ten warriors
were left at the reservation. They are
all gone, and the war dances are on in
every valley from the Black Hills to
the Powder. For heavens sake, send
half your garrison up to Reno after
Brooks. You are safe here. They won't
molest you south of the Platte, at least
not now. All they ask is that you
build no more forts in the Big Horn"
But the colonel could not act with
out authority. Telegraph there was
none then. What Folsom said was of
sufficient Importance to warrant his
hurrying off a courier to Laramie,
fully 100 miles southeast, and order
ing troop to scout across the wild
wastes to the north, while Folsom
himself, unable to master his anxiety,
decided to accompany the command
sent out toward Cantonment Reno.
He long had had influence with the
Ogallallas. Even now Red Cloud might
listen if he could but find him. The
matter was of such urgency he could
not refrain. And so with the gray
troop of the cavalry, setting forth
within an hour of his coming, rode the
old trader whom the Indians had so
long sworn by, and he started none
too soon.

They were trotting through shall
low depression at the moment. the
two spring wagons guarded and es-
corted by some 30 dusty, hardy
looking troopers. In the second. the
yellow ambulGEce, Brooks was
stretched at length, taking it easy
an attendant jogging alongside. Be
hind them came third, big quar-
termaster's wagon, drawn by six mules
and loaded with tentage and rations.
Out some 300 yards to the right and
left rode little squads as fankers
Out beyond them, further still, often
cut off from view by low waves of
prairie, were individual troopers, rid
ing as lookouts, while far to the front
full 600 yards, three or four others.
spreading over the front On each side
of the twisting trail, moved rapidly
from crest to crest, always carefully
scanning the country ahead before rid
ing up to the summit. And now. as
Deans eyes turned from his charges
to look along the sky line to the east,
he saw sudden sign of excitement and
commotion at the front. A sergeant,
riding with two troopers midway be-
tween him and those foremost scouts,
was eagerly signaling to him with his
broadbrimmed hat. Three of the
black dots along the gently rising
slope far ahead had leaped from their
mounts and were slowly crawling for
ward, while one of them, his horse
turned adrift and contentedly nib
bling at the buffalo grass, was surely
signaling that there was mischief
ahead.
In an instant the lieutenant was
galloping out to the front, cautioning
the driver to come on slowly. Pres
emily he overhauled the sergeant and
bade him follow, and together the
four men darted up on the gradual in
cline until within ten yards of where
the leaders horses were placidly graz
ing. There they threw themselves
from saddle; one of the men took the
reins of the four horses, while Dean
and the other two, unslinging carbne
and crouching low. went hurriedly on
up the slope until they came within a
few yards of the nearest scout.
'Indians!" he called to them, as
soon as they were within earshot
"But they don't seem to be on lookout
for us at all. They're fooling with
some buffalo over here"
Crawling to the crest, leaving his
hat behind, Dean peered over into the
swale beyond, and this was what he
saw:
Half a mile away to the east the
low, concave sweep of the prairie was
cut by the Jagged banks and curves
Of a watercourse which drained the
melting SHOWS in earlier spring Along
the further bank a dozen buffalo were

HER KNOWLL.

Her Friends,
A young woman at a watering place

A young woman at a watering place
summer made reputation as a profou
linguist in a rather odd manner. SL.
called one dny at Chinese laundry, where
she had left shirt waist, but it could
not be found, as there was no entry in
the book of hieroglyphics corresponding to
her pink slip. After half hours search
the Chinaman found the entry A mistake
had been made, the entry crossed out and
a new set of hieroglyphics IN tiny charac-
ters placed below. She was told that that
waist would be laundered Immediately, and
she could have it the next day, says the
Kansas City World.
The next day the young woman called
for it, accompanied by three other young
women. At the seashore the excitement of
a visit to the Chinese laundry is not to be
despised. The Chinaman to whom the pink
slip was presented was not the laundryman
of the day before, and he experienced the
same difficulty in finding the identifying
characters, finally saying: "Not in book"
The girl answered, calmly: II can find it,"
and the Chinaman allowed her to take the
book. Turning the leaves until she came
to the one that had had an entry crossed
out, with another in tiny characters under
it, she handed it to the Chinaman. There
it is," and, to his surprise, he found it.
"You only lady l know spik Chinese" he
said. And the other girls looked upon her
with admiration.

placidly grazing, unconscious of the
fact that in the shallow, dry ravine
itself half a dozen young Indians
Sioux, apparently were lurking,
awaiting the nearer coming of the
herd, whose leaders, at least, were
gradually approaching the edge.
Away down to the northeast, toward
the distant Powder river, the shallow
stream bed trended and, following
the pointing finger of the scout who
crawled to his side, Dean gazed and
saw confused mass of slowly moving
objects, betrayed for miles by the
light cloud of dust that lowered over
them, covering many an acre of the
prairie, stretching away down the
vale. Even before he could unsling
his field glass and gaze, his plainscraft
told him what was slowly, steadily
approaching. as though to cross his
front-an Indian village, a big one,
on the move to the mountains, bound
perhaps for the famous race course of
the Sioux, n grand amphitheater in
the southern hills.
And even as they gazed, two tiny
jets of flame and smoke shot from the
ravine edge there below them, and be-
fore the dull reports could reach their
ears the foremost bison dropped on his
knees and then rolled over on the sod;
and then came the order. at sound of
which, back among the halted troop
ers, every carbine leaped from it's
