militia late Sunday night, thus defer

Hastily setting fire to his tepees
and tents. the Indian leader with his
mixed company of redskins and ne
gr0es fled from their blazing camp as
the troops advanced. They took up a
strong position between the North
Canadian river and Deep Fork creek,
about seventeen miles east of Henry
eta.
Colonel Hoffman. in command of
the state troops. considered it unwise
to push the pursuit and engage the
Indians in the darkness. Accordingly
he bivouacked his troops for the night
Early in the morning, reinforced by
company of cowboys from around
'Lawton. Okla, all crack shots, he win
lead his forces against the Indians.
Crazy Snake and his braves will be
offered chance to surrender. If
they refuse the battle will be on.
Colonel Hoffman sent out numerous
scouts to watch the movements of
the enemy and to give the alarm If
they attempted to flee under cover of
darkness. The commander planned
to allow his weary troops rest on the
field during the night unless the In.
dams attempted to escape to a
stronger position.
The militia officers believe Crazy
Snake wants to reach the Tiger
mountains with his followers before
engaging in general fight. That
the old chief is striving to stir the
Creeks to an uprising and strike for
what he conceives to be liberty was
evident from the smoke of three sig
nal fires on adjacent hills just before
shutdown. Old-time frontiersmen who
insist they know what such things
mean declare this is a sign which al.
ways ushers in Indian trouble. No
body is wild enough to say the old
chief will get anywhere in his fanat-
ical dream of overturning the govern
ment, but certain 1t is that he is try
ing and just as certain that he will
be ruthlessly crushed If he resists.

enough to it to east an opposing vote.
