INDIAN JEFF.
An Old SIeuth in MOccasins Who
Does Excellent Work.

A picturesque figure was in evidence
on the streets Of Shoshone last Satur-
day, the End inst, one that would at
tract attention at any time in any place
1t was Indian Jeff, conspicuous in moe
casins and Mexican Sombrero, but other
wise dressed in the garb of prosperous
rancher. Of medium hight with 1.-THE
but muscular frame, features regular
but prominent, he gives the impress
ion of resourcefulness and energy one
would not wish to meet in an antago-
essst. But Indian Jeff's business in Sho-
shone was not to pose as an unusual
specimen Of vanishing race but in the
capacity of a successful detective, and
herein lies a tale.
The town Of Bliss is located in the
western part Of this, Lincoln county,
and on the Snake river bottom some
distance below the town may be seen
the tepee Of Indian Jeff, where he lives
in true Indian style with wife or two
to attend to the domestic requirements
Of the establishment.
A prosperous merchant Of the town.
the owner Of a comfortable home, whose
family was temporarily absent, went
home to supper not many days ago and
on reaching the house discovered that
it had been burglarizsd in his absence.
The doors were open and the furniture
somewhat disarranged and considerable
personal apparel and jewelry were miss
ing.
The merchant who was none other
than E. NJ Roberts at once bethcught
him Of Indian jeff and he lost no time
in securing his services.
Some tracks We're discovered leading
to and from, the house and with the
unerring instincts of his race Indian
Jeff took up the trail and followed it
for miles across the sage brush desert
with Mr.. Roberts his only companion.
Finally the quarry was located in camp
for the night and closer inspection
demonstrated the correctness of the
Indians prediction that two men were
the only members of the robber gang.
The two trailers approached the camp
unseen and covering the robbers with
winchesters demanded an immediate
surrender The latter, seeing the drop
was on them gave up and with the
stolen goods in tow the party returned
to Bliss and later came on to Shoshone.
At the preliminary trial the two young
burglars were bound over to the Dis
trict Court.
Some two years ago two men were
arrested for robbery and brought to
Shoshone. Pros. Atty Disney at once
saw from the nature of the evidence
that it was necessary to prove that the
accused had passed through the town
of Bliss on certain day. He inter-
viewed Indian Jeff who readily describ- (
ed the men accurately and in detail
even to a missing finger on one hand of
one of them and largely on his evidence
the men were convicted.
AS trailer of criminals Indian Jeff
has proved more infallible than the
famous blood hounds of the South.
