LOST CHILD IS FOUND
Babe Wanders in Sage Brush Over a
Day and Tive Nights.

The 19-months-old son of Clarence
March, who resides about half way
between this city and Caldwell
wandered away from home at {
o'clock Saturday evening and wa:
not found until IL o'clock Monday
morning. The little fellow was
found in the sagebrush desert six
miles west of Cash Nichols farm
near Falk's Store by young boy
named Harold Hanthorn.
Young Hanthorn's story of finding
the little fellow is decidedly inter
esting. He says:
when | got out there to the
March home | learned that the child
strayed away early in the evening,
about 6 o'clock on Saturday. They
had found the little ones tracks at a
point a miles east of there. rode
over to that point. | found the
mother at camp there surrounded
by neighbor women. She was near
ly distracted. She had given up all
hope of finding the child alive and
was praying that his body be found
unmutilated by wild beasts.
with three or four other search
ers started out on horseback. We
found several evidences of where the
child had wandered, but only occa-
sional footprints. We had gone
about three miles and a half and a
little, way into a gulch when the
others decided there was no use in
Uoino further They said we had 4
gone too far and that we must be on
the wrong track. Something seemed
to be telling me that we were on the
right trail and | concluded to go it !
alone. They turned back and | rode
on short distance and then got off
the horse and walked leading the
animal. In short time | found tiny
footprints which gave me hope. The
footprints led up the side of the
gulch and | proceeded on slowly TAX
ing the course | thought the child
would be most apt to follow.
''All at once | heard a weak, little
childish voice. 1t said. Pony, pretty
pony; baby ride pretty pony look
ed up and around and in moment
discovered the child standing just
behind large sage brush. He had
evidently been tottling along and had
stopped when he heard my approach.
He was holding out his little bruised
and bleeding arms to me. | snatched
up the child and rushed to the top of
the hill and gave the signal that the
baby had been found"
