taken. Mr.. Fullerton, the cattle owner,
had employed the sheriffs of Uintah and
Grand counties to look Tor cattle rustlers
who had been bothering his herds for
some time. Several days ago, when out
on the range, he ran across two men who
were changing brands on his cattle and
he determined 10 have them taken;
These two posses under Sheriffs Preece
of Uintah county and Tyler OF Grand coun-
ty. had gone up the Green river valley I'M
til they found a camp which, TO them,
seemed to have been the home Of the
r11stlers They found a large space that
had been burned away by camp fires, and
they determined to follow the trail lead
ing up the river. On Monday night they
had lost the trail which they believed to
be that of the rustlers they wanted, but
which was in reality the trail of Currie' s
horses which had wandered long way
from his camp.
The next morning when they started
out again. they separated. one posse GO
ing on the north side Of the river and the
other staying on the south side. They
hoped in this way 10 find where the
horses would go to water at the river, and
thus pick Ip the trail again. But about
9 o'clock the posse on the south side of
the river saw Currie and called 10 him to
throw up his hands. He replied that he
would never do that, and they opened up
fire on him. He had been jumping from
the fusillade of shots, and after he had
fired from one of them he quit.
The posse believed tnat ne was play
ing 'pOssum," and did not dare to ap-
proach too near. But the men on the
other side of the river came up nearer
and opened fire on him from the side
where he vas not projected by the rock.
Found Him Dead.
After several shots had been fired and
he made no reply. they went up to him
and found that he had been killed some
time before by a bullet through the head
from one of two rifles in the crowd. The
wound was made by a Winchester $3.50
calibre, and there were two of these guns
in the posse which fired on him first
Currie had no food with him when he
was killed, and it is not believed chat
he had had any for several days. He
must have been almost starving. He had
nothing but a roll of blankets, among
which was a quilt shat had evidently
been made for him by a woman. In the
middle of it there was piece set in on
which were painted the pictures of birds.
1t was done by an amateur country
artist
His gun. which was on the rock in front
of him, was in the same position as when
he had shot with it, for his nerveless fing-
ers had simply dropped from the trigger.

patches conflict regarding the state of

Gaily Chronicle says the troops have

that the Modder river has fallen suf-
6ciently to permit cavalry to cross. The
Standards representative says almost
the exact opposite. Present indications,
however, point to still further delay.
Without attaching undue Importance
to the stories from Lourenzo Marquee

forces, it would almost seem that the
former estimates of $4,000 were rather
low.

Turned to bis family and tonight the
boy aud his parents are receiving con-
gratuations f,om relatives and friends
throughout the country.
Mr. and Mrs. Cudahy feel that they
have cause for relief, not only over the
return of their youthful son, but also
because one or more of their daughters
were not included IN the conspiracy
which caused them so much anxiety
and grief. as a statement Of the con-
spirators, overheard by the lad while
be was in their power, indicates that
they had been attempting for month
to secure possession of one Of his sis

Young Cudahy tells a thrilling sto-y-
of adventure. He was blindfolded and
chained to floor in a deserted house
five miles from Omaha. The kidDapers
threatened to burn out his eyes.
