telligence, self-restraint, obedience
and discipline, good nature and abil-

the earliest homes of football after
the introduction of the modified, if
not improved, Rugby game from

TO FIND ERICH MINE"
PrOspectors Are Hunting, Guided
by Map Made by
Indians.
Special to The HeralaO


Cheyenne, Wyo., May 17.-Perhaps
one Of the strangest quests ever un-
dertaken by man is now being made by
D. r. Cowhick. county clerk Of Lara
ME county, SID John Sloan, a prom
inent ranchman and dairyman resid-
ing about two miles out of the city.
They are hunting in the eastern por-
ton Of Weston county, Wyoming. for
fabulously rich gold deposits, using as
guide a chart made by Tuscon, an
Indian, who was hanged in this city
nearly a quarter Of a century ago for
the murder Of a rival in love These
deposits are supposed TO be the same
as those known to history as the Fa-
Their DeSmet mines.
About twenty three years ago, Tus-
con, an ArapahOe Indian, was tried in
the courts in this city, then a western
Quitting town for freighters, for the
murder of another buck Of his tribe
Both were In love with a beautiful
Indian maiden and the killing Of Tus-
cons rival was the outcome OF a quar-
rel over the affections Of the girl.
Hon. w. W. Corlett, now dead. and
Judge W. P. Carroll. who stlH resides
in Cheyenne. defended Tuscon at the
trial The verdict Of the Jury was
against the Indian lover and he was
hanged on the corner Of Twentieth and
O'Neil streets by T. J. Carr, the sheriff
at that time. The Indian had no mon
ey, but in appreciation Of the services
Of Judge Carroll presented him with a
chart of Indian hieroglyphics which ex-
planned the route to the location Of
fabulOusly rich gold deposits near the
forks Of Beaver creek, in eastern Wes-
ton county, Wyoming, eighty miles
from the city of Newcastle.
During all Of this time Judge Carroll
has carefully kept and preserved the
map, IL being for many years locked
UP in the vaults Of a bank here. He
had not sufficient means TO prosecute
the search for the treasure and no one
appeared who would pay him the price
demanded by him for. the chart. Re
Gently Messrs. Cowhick and Sloan
purchased the map, the price being
kept a secret, and are now in Weston
county to prove or disprove the strange
story told by Tuscon when he gave his
attorney the map. The Indian assert
ed gold in large nuggets was found
there by the Indians

at $40 North First West street, had
been down in the city till nearly mid
night He had reached Peach street
on his way home, when two men. both
wearing long black masks over their
faces. sprang from the shadows Of the
trees and covered him with their re-
vOlvers. One of the highwaymen held
two guns pointed at his head while the
other. seizing him roughly by the col
lar, made a complete search Of his
pockets.
He argued with the men, begging
them TO leave his money, but they were
obdurate and ordered him to be silent.

pOcketbooks were taken, one contain
ing $40 in money and the other only a
bunch OF keys.
After the robbers had completed their
search they ordered him to proceed.
and still keeping him in range Of their
revolvers. backed OF into the darkness.
Brandon at once went to police head
quarters where he related his expert
ence. He gave only a meager descrip-
ton Of the highwaymen. and although
several officers were detailed to work
on the case. small hopes Of their cap
ture- are entertained.
