dered.
Grant had started from Toledo
Tuesday evening to go to the reserva.
tion. He did not appear at his home
as expected, so search for him was in.
stituted. His pony was found first,
and then about a mile from Grants
home the searchers found a place
where there was considerable blood.

a conflict. From this place to the 81.

Omaha yesterday soliciting funds for the
people Of his city and Armourdale
who lost their homes in the recent flood
Mr.. Layton says the conditions in the

from the press reports.
ITO understand the awful conditions
Of the food regions the outside world
should know" he says. that they arc
driving many OF the poor people there
insane. The day / left home l saw two
policemen catch haggard- faced woman
who was a raving maniac
Personally I know Of a dozen cases
OF this kind in Armourdale alone. and
doubtless there are many more. Only
few people have gone back to their
homes. Practically every house in
Armourdale. city that once had 1900
hard-working people, IS ruined. Houses
are collapsing every day"
1t is safe to estimate that at least
200 people were drowned. More than
