Gallup. n. NJ. Sept 15.-The body
Of John a. Young was found last
night just about dark as the party
was giving up the work for the night
and had started for the shore. They
had built RATS and while padding to
the shore with long poles accidentally
hit upon the body of Young lying
much nearer the shore than they had
been searching all the day. The body
of Lieutenant Early has not been To-
Gated. Young's body arrived in Gal
lup about midnight last night. Fu-
neral arrangements have not yet been
made known. The body is in the
Beddow undertaking parlor.
There were about fifty persons at
the lake working in an effort TO To-
cate the bodies.
The dead lieutenant is a nephew of
Jubal Early an old confederate army
officer of Virginia stock.
Searchers Camp All Night.
The searching party returned to
the lake this morning to continue
the search. Many of them camped
there all night. A wagon load of pro-
visions was sent out to them at mid
night last night after the first Of those
at the lake returned.
Lieutenant f.. c. Early, brother OF
the dead Lieutenant Jubal Early. who
is also located at Fort Wingate, was

smalling and Lieutenant Early went
out to the lake with. ]. A. Young Sat-
urday night and went out shooting
ducks early the next morning and re-
NAMED out on the lake until about
1880. Then all decided to go In and
get breakfast. Early and Young were
in boat by themselves and just as
they were starting for the shore they
saw a flock Of ducks come into the
lake and they went back to get shot
at them. The balance of the party
went to the clubhouse, cooked the
breakfast and remained there all the
afternoon making repairs to boats and
other little things until about dusk.
Then they began TO wonder why the
other two had not returned. and went
to seek them. They could see moth
ing of the boat or men.
Officers Join Party.
A wagon load of army officers came
over from the fort in the middle OF
the afternoon and they. too. went to
look for the missing men. The wind
was blowing a terrific gale and the
men were unable to row the other
boat on the lake. The army team was
used to haul the boat around to the
windy side of the lake and they DRIFT
ed into the tullies and found the boat
capsized with no sign of where the
accident had occurred. No hats were
found nor the oars of the boat. the
boat had q gasoline propeller attached
TO it. The boat was built in Gallup.
The engine was missing. The men
Wore high gum boots and because 1t
was very cold had on heavy overcoats
and hunting coats filled with shells.
The men who were there are of the
opinion that the tragedy occurred
about noon. as the men had intended
to come right back and get breakfast.
The bottom of the lake is covered
with thick coat Of weeds about three
or four feet deep and 1t is only an ac-
cident that the body was located. u
Is doubtful If the other will be found
as he may have swum some distance.
He was an expert swimmer. The
weight which the bodies carried IN
clothing and loaded shells make IL
possible that 1t will never rise to the
top. Mariana is just thirty miles

We're out there working yesterday. HIS

and the men had plenty of mutton,
at least.
