BURIED TREASURE.
Two Hundred Thousand DOL
lars in Gold in Vernon
County.
II Was Buried Years Ago by Old
Chief White Hair.

Hermitage Republican.
DR.. Millikan. formerly OF our neigh
boring town OF Preston, now located
at Schell City, Mo. was visiting Or.
Cur aud family last Monday, and
saws Isaac Allen. who formerly lived
between Preston and Cross Timbers.
has one OF the finest farms III Mis-
sour. His dwelling house is built on
one Of the terraces Of the historical
Blue Mound in Vernon county. and
overlooks the farm which lies at the
base of the mound.
Blue Mound is where the chief OF
the ancient tribe of Usage Indians is
buried. The Indian village lay at
the base and west end of the mound.
Captain Vance, in company with Mr.
Hightower. visited the place about
16 years ago and the captain has
several relics that he picked up on
the top of the mound at the grave
of the Usage chief.
Just east of Blue Mound is Haw-
ley's Bluff, on the Usage river. On
the top of the bluff overlooking the
river are the remains of q stone fort,
underneath the bluff on table base
rock, about sixty feet above the
Usage waters, with some thirty holes
along in row, about three feet in
diameter, that have been cut down
in the solid rock, and the inside of
the holes, or walls, are as smooth as
if glazed by a potter, but are filled
up with sand ard rock which have
fallen from the overhanging cliff.
Just south of the bluff is the remains
of old furnace and deep excavations
where mining at some time has been
done.
Mr.. HightOwer was one of the very
first white men to settle in that part
of the state, and very frequently Wis
tied among the Indians in that early
day, and he said he had made inquiry
of the Oldest Indians who lived there,
as to who had done the work at
Halley's Bluff, and they told him
they had no knowledge as to who did
it, as the work was done long before
the Usage Indians occupied the coun-
try, but there is a tradition that the
children of the sun once lived there.
Hightower also said there was a
tradition that the Usage Indians,
when they sold their lands to the
United States government, the tribe
received 100000 to distribute
among the tribe and they gave the
money to their old chief, to keep for
them, and to keep it safe the old
chief buried the money, and died, so
the Indians lost the money, and since
the Indians moved west, squads of
them would return to Blue Mound |
to search for the money. So if the
Indians or some ''pale face has not
found it. you need not be surprised
to hear of Isaac Allen blowing up, i
on his farm two hundred thousand |
dollars.

that it wasn't the doctors house. but
one up on the ton of the hill. at 40

morning echoes with its braaen clamor.
TWO minutes after the first stroke OF

without a hit of noise, but the Column

and rattle OF the gong loud enough to
