property to another negro named Pat

possession of his property, it is al
legged that Collins attacked Mrs. Pat

son swore out warrant for Collins
arrest.
When Sheriff Thomas Courtney and
his deputy, Richard Bursmaster, ar
rived here from the county seat, they
swore in as deputy, Il. p. Wilson of
this place. The party then went to
the camp of the bridge construction
company where Collins was at work.
Wilson was sent on ahead to the
office to inquire where Collins was
working Just as he stepped into the
office Collins held him up at the point
Of gun and took away his arms.
Collins stepped out past Wilson and
almost collided with Sheriff Courtney,
who was about to enter the office.
Collins fired twice at the sheriff,
killing him instantly. He then turned
on Deputy Bursmaster and shot him
five times through the body. Collins
then ran into the brush. A posse OF
Mondak citizens was quickly organ

ing that escape was impossible, gave
himself up.
Officials took charge of Collins and
took him to Mondak. On arriving at

only for a short time. The angry citl-

their handhold on the seats and fling

creaking clamp of the brakes, the
dancing of frightened horses, a perfect
volley of oaths, the crunch Of feet as
men leaped from the top to the
ground; then, all at once, the stage
lurched forward, swerving sharply to
the left, and struck out across the

Hamlin struggled to the nearest win

Devere. The main Santa Fe trail,
broad and deeply rutted by the in
Vulnerable wheels of early spring
caravans, followed the general course
of the river. occasionally touching the
higher level plains, but mostly keep
ing close beneath the protection of the
northern bluffs, or else skirting the
edge Of the water. Night or day the
! route was easily followed, and, in 9TH
er years, the traveller was seldom for
long out Of sight of toiling wagons.
Now scarcely a wheel turned in all
that lonely distance.
The west-bound stage left the sta
ton at Deer Creek at four o'clock in
the afternoon with no intimation of
danger ahead. Its occupants had eat
en- dinner in company with those of
the east-bound coach, eighteen miles
down the river It Canon Bluff, and the
incoming driver had reported an open
road, and no unusual trouble. No In
dian signs had been observed, not
even signal fires during the night, and
the conductor, who had come straight
from Santa Fee, reported that troops
from Fort Union had driven the only
known bunch of raiders back from
the neighborhood of the trail, and had
them already safely corralled in the
mountains. This report, seemingly au-
thentic and official, served to relax
the nerves, and the west-bound driver
sang to himself as he guided the four
horses forward, while the conductor,
a sawed-off gun planted between his
knees, nodded drowsily. Inside there
were but. three passengers, jerking
back and forth, as the wheels struck
the deep ruts of the trail, occasionally
exchanging word or two, but usual
ly staring gloomily forth at the mo-
notonous scene. Miss Mcdonald and
