was pointing II of the guns toward
his wife with the evident intention of
killing her when a little daughter rush
ed up and seized the barrel of the
weapon, urging the crazed man not to
shoot her mother. This gave the wom-
an a chance to escape and she started
on a run across the fields, hoping to
reach the home of a neighbor. The
husband started in pursuit, firing two
or three shots at his fleeing wife, but
fortunately without hitting her. A
passing traveller, who was in a buggy,
rescued the woman and brought her
to Hammer. A posse of citizens then
drove to the home of the farmer and
took possession of the firearms and
supply of booze which he had in the
house. They also drove to the school
nearby and took custody of the other
children and brought them to town.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Timber Lake.-Martin Whitehorse,
the last chief of the old Cheyenne
River Sioux Indians, head of the group
known as the Whitehorse band, died
at the home of a granddaughter near
here on December 81. He was about
73. years old; and although he leaves
a number. of grandchildren and a wild
ow, there are no sons or grandscaS
to bear the. name of White horse.
Whitehorse had been a leader Of the
Cheyenne Sioux in his time, and for
many years had been friendly TO the
whites. When the federal government
decided tc. remove the Cheyenne Sioux
from Fort Bennett to their present
location on the Cheyenne river Teser-
| walton, Whitehorse was selected. to
choose the new location, and it was he
who located the headquarters for the
reservation on the knoll where the
reservation agents office is located,
the agency being called Whitehorse,
| after the, chief. At the time of the
first treaty between the Cheyenne
Sioux and the government, in 1868,
Whitehorse was one of the first In
| dams to cut off his hair, in recogni-
ton of the new regime, and in accept
ance of. the white mans ways, though
at that time to get a hair cut was
deemed the height of disgrace by the
Cheyenne Sioux Indian.
Since about the year. 1890. the
Whitehorse family had carried on a
pictorial history of the. Sioux nation,
by burning upon wood the leading
events in the, Sioux history during the
life of the chronicler. With the death
of Whitehorse. leaving no male de,
scendants, it is feared this custom
will die out.
Whitehorse was buried on January
8. Some suggested his interment in
the new cemetery, q mile and a half
from tho town OF W~hitehorse, but Pad.
dy Miller, a relative, said mo, We will
bury. our. chief on the hill overlooking
the agency which he located over
twenty years ago. There we will still
have our chief above us, as we always
have, and where he can continue to
watch over u.s." And so it was done
During the Sitting Bull disturbance
Whitehorse was one OF the few Indian
chiefs who refused to have anything
to do with the willy Sitting Bull, and
continued to remain true to the treaty
of ,,6S, and to his friendship to the
whites.
