Riding like mad. they arrived to find
some Indian police still fighting from
Sitting Bulls cabin, being surrounded
on all sides.
Volley after volley was poured In un-
expectedly on the besiegers, and a few
shells from the Hotchkiss gun scatter

leved. They had reached Sitting
Bulls cabin at 5 a. M, surrounded it,
and, capturing the old chief in bed, ar

respect for them he would have had

Shave Head WIS shot in the abdomen,

Major Ratchet and several police, and
many ghost dancers were killed, they

as these short descriptions Of
events, deserving more ex-
tensive reference than possi-
BILE here, are nearing a close
and have covered a period with which
his name is associated, it is fitting that
the general reader should be given a
little insight into the character Oe the
famed Sioux Indian Sitting Bull. Aft
er remaining in Canada until his peo-
Die were leaving him and returning to
their reservations, havir- only rem
nant Of his immediate SLOWING and
family left, he himself consented to
return under conditions that would be
favorable to his followers, while he
was assured Of immunity from per
sonal punishment.
He was wise enough to know that
his absence was weaving many from
obedience to his sway, and martyrdom
at distance, he thought, was not as
effective in retaining popularity and
power as would be persecution under
the eyes Of his people
He was of incorruptible loyalty to his
people, a stickler for their treaty
rights, a native politician who If
schooled a little more in diplomacy
and its concealment, of designs would
class him as the great Indian states
man.
In war his bitter opponent in peace
he won my friendship and sympathy
He impressed me as a deep thinker.
Conscientious as to the proper rights
to the lands Of his fathers, he ad-
vanced arguments that were strong
and convincing. His claim Of primitive
possessions for ages beyond the white
mans coming, Of the conditions being
undisturbed for centuries and existing
as the Great Manitou had ordained
the bountiful supplies he had furnish
ed on land and In the waters, Of wild
fruit, wild fowl. wild cattle, abundance
Of Wild horses, verdure to support
them without the plowman's weary
work-all furnished him an argument
that the disturbance and compulsory
change to its heirs of this legacy were
arbitrary, unjust to the verge Of what
we would call sacrilegious interference
with the Divine will
He had all the old treaties in his
head in the Indian legendary manner.
also in hieroglyphics, but in writing
and printed type he had an extract
from the treaty Of 1868 by which the
Sioux reservation Of Dakota was set
apart ''for the absolute and undis-
turbed use and occupation of the In
dams and upon which no outsiders but
government employees shall be allow
ed to pass, settle or reside"
Basing his case like a lawyer, he
would introduce It as a silent witness.
1ustifying his actions, and with keen
eyes he would watch It carefully, so
that It could not be tampered with,
and while, of course, he could not read
he had marks on this sacred totem that
he was familiar with. His eagle eye
would scan the face Of the reader Of ii
to see the effect, and on its return his
face intimated strongly the triumph
