One OF fts g1sstest ballucina-

Quigky, who surveyed the state
binds Of Twas just after The oivl
war, 'hsppened 10 the party that
was belpng ns run the range lines
on the Teas pranies. We we're
pretty nervous about the Indians
and bspt a sharp lookout for them.
1t one time we had quite a brush
With q band Of about 800 reds. They
surrounded M, and We dug trenches
inside a circle OF mess wagons. They
pestersd us two days, and we bad to
tnnncl 200 yards for drinking water.
Then we drove them.of.
Zone morning about a month lat
er an alarm sounded in our camp
Just as day vas beginning to break.
We rolled out Of our blankets and
looked around rs. On all sides were
seen the enemy. Not tens nor hun
dreds, but seemingly Thousands Of
them, swarmed over the prairies.
"1t dirt never few before it did
than. Every man seized shovel
and dug trenches for dear life. Bills
ters blossomed on our hands in no
time, and the sweat streamed from
our faces, but there was DO time to
rest. We could see the Indians with
their ponies lying down, the red
devils paering over the horses and
they covered the ppairies as far as
the eys could zee. Occasionally an
Indi1n could be seen running on
foot from one horse 70 another.
Farther away they were ganoplng
a1onnd on horseback.
"In tho tev minutes between the
early. morning twilight and day
baeak We had tsanahsd and fortified
eur camp. Chen we sehsed to
await the attack Of the indians.
II don't know who came 10 his
senses frst, but as daylight streamed
over the psaiie the mis&s cleared
from bsfoss our eyes and some one
cried in q startled voice.
~They'rs paaisie dogs
"And praias dogs they we're. We
had camped in the middle Of their
village and not an Indian within
miles. Psychologists say that what
a man expects TO see, he'll see. Our
fear f,aught minds had transformed
the prairie dogs into mounted In
dams and q company Of thirty men
had suffered the same illusion. Our
