AN UNEASY SKELETON.
II Had . Lively Time Until Its Final
Burial Ceremony.

II Had . Lively Time Until Its Final
Burial Ceremony.
Speaking OF final resting places"
said Ike Purcell the other day. IAN
Indian buried at Wakeeney has earned
his. He was the first Indian killed In
the last Indian raid in Kansas. The
raid was pulled off by $50 Sioux In
dams, and good many settlers were
killed, considerable property was burn
ed and hundreds Of horses and cattle
were stsmpeded. The Indians came
within a few miles of Wakeeney, when
part of cavalry regiment from old
Fort Hayes met them. The Indians
fed, but were forced to stand over
In the edge of Rush county.
1.-THE history of the chase is inter
esting. Every Indian in the band was
killed. The subject of this item tum-
bled off his pony near Wakeeney and
rolled into a ditch. His body was not
found for several months. and by that
time nothing was left but a skeleton.
The men who found the skeleton wired
the bones together and tied it to post
on the public road. with label tell
ing that it was the first Indian killed
In the%last raid. etc. Complaint was
made about the grewsome spectacle
so the county board ordered the skele-
ton buried in the cemetery. To cele-
brate the fact that civilization had
come to stay speeches were madefat
the grave of this the first Indian killed
In the last raid, etc.
Later some 'fellers' got full, dug
up the skeleton. dressed it in store
clothes and had fun with it. They
hired liveryman to take their friend
home, and when the driver found what
he had in the seat with him he yelled
nightly and jumped out of the buggy.
The team ran away, sphling the Indian
in park where an ice cream festival
was ip progress. The skeleton was
again buried with ceremony, being the
first Indian killed ia the last raid, etc.
LO was permitted to repose about
year. when another bunch of FOUNDERS
disinterred the skeleton, redressed it
and shocked sensitive citizens with a
moonlight lynching, shooting at the
dangling figure and all that sort of
thing Officers cut the corpse down,
and then the gang that was wise to
the joke INDUCED in a merry ha-ha.
For the third time the skeleton was
buried with more speechifying. After
that the skeleton was not disturbed.
and the good people of Wakeeney
hope that it has found its final resting
place."-Kansas City Journal.
