HOW JACK STILLWELL
WHIPPED A RATTLESNAKE

Gen. SANDY" Forsyth's band OF
scouts had been surrounded by Chief
Roman Noses Cheyennes and in the
sandy bed OF the Arlckaree river In
eastern Colorado they were fighting
for their lives one September day In
1868. They had no food their doe
tor had been killed, and relief must
come soon IL they were to be saved.
Forsyth called for volunteers 10 go 10
Fort Wallace, Kan. 100 miles away,
for aid.
Every unwonnded man al once Of.
fered himself for the perIlous journey,
but the general selected Pete Trudeau,
an old hunter. and Jack Stillwell. "a
boy OF nineteen. When night came
the two scouts started. Taking or
their boots, they walked backward
down the dry river bed In their stock
ing feet 10 deceive any Indians who
might come upon their trail.
When morning came they hid In a
dry ravine within sight and sound OF
an Indian camp. They had nothing TO
eat or drink, and the sun beat upon
them fiercely all day long On the morn
ing OF the fourth day they found them
selves on the open plain with no cover
In sight.
Suddenly they came upon the skele-
ton OF buffalo surrounded by rank
growth OF green grass. Into this
scanty refuge Trudeau and Stlllwell
hastily crept They were not min.
ute too soon. large party Of In
dians appeared and halted within a
hundred yards OF their hiding place.
The scouts were hugging the ground
when Trudeau heard hiss In the
grass In front Of him, and second
later big rattlesnake crawled slug
gishly out and colled within a foot
Of the scouts head
Stillwell was chewing tobacco,
and lust before the snake sounded
his deadly rattle, the young scout
leaned forward and shot the spray
OF tobacco juice squarely into the
open jaws and eyes OF the reptile.
The rattler could not stand such a
dose. He crawled hastily away. The
Indians soon passed on without dis
covering the scouts. Stillwell's lucky
shot had saved their lives.
Forty-elght hours later the two men
reached Fort Wallace. Trudeau was
completely broken by his terrible ex-
perience and he died few days later,
but when the relief expedition left

Careless Burnings By
Citizens,

COvingtOn, LAID Smith, Of BoS.

mediate on the forest fire laws os
Louisiana. On February 16 last I'd
deliberately set fire to a patch Of
rough woods through which he went
to work every day. On the testimony
Of three citizens he was placed under
arrest by Conservation Agent Norman
E. Core, Forest Ranger for the state
department Of conservation, and upon
conviction before Judge Carter for set,
ting fire on anOther's land was sen.
fenced to ten days in jail here, ten
dollars and the cost Of court. In de-
fault Of cash payment he was giyeR
an additional thirty days in jail.
Careless use OF matches In rough
woods and cut-over lands is becoming
increasingly unpopular and costly in
St. Tammany Parish. Joseph K. WI.
son, residing temporarily near this
place, carelessly allowed fire to escape
while he was burning a fire line around
his fence, and endangered his neigh.

in jail under $500 bond for four weeks,
and was released only at his own re-.
quest tact he be allowed to leave the
parish for good. Manuel E. Smith, OF
Abita Springs, was also charged by
Ranger Core with setting fire in cut.
over land, nearly causing the loss Of a
neighbor's house. The neighbor de-
cided not to testify against him, and
Smith was released from Jail. In q
fourth case a twelve-year-old boy was
found by the authorities to have set
fire to several roughs ''just for fun"
His fun came to an end when, upon
the Rangers complaint to his father,
parent and boy had an interview In

 Given Three Weeks to Live
 Fifteen years ago I was sent into Arizona. One of the biggest doctors in America had given me three weeks of life. I've been in that country, off and on, for fifteen years now, although it isn't necessary any longer. That part of the world holds you. You don't know what sort of stuff you are made of until you've been alone on the desert and seen the red sky seep- ing down over the red rocks and known the loneliness and the immen- sity of land ripped and torn by ancient volcanoes"
 This is the land pictured in his ex- hibit now being held in the Rabjohn & Morcom galleries. The paintings are like James Swinnerton-big, free, splashed with raw, quivering colors.
 "Californians can't understand those pictures" he said. "They have seen only soft grays and greens, foggy with mists. Arizona is raw. Every color stands out vividly. You have to see them to believe there actually are such places. But that is the sort of thing I like to paint, pictures that look as if they had never been and never could be" - San Francisco Chronicle.

TYPHUS SPREADING
 SLOWLY ON RESERVATION

Dr. H. G. Wilson received a wire from Dr. Waller, head of the state health department on Thursday, stats ing that the typhus epidemic was spreading slowly on the reservation and that they hoped to have it entire Iy checked in short time. There is no cause for immediate alarm, but every precaution should be used to prevent it making any headway. The federal and state health departments have the matter we'll under control and are doing everything they can to prevent the Indians in the affected districts from going off the reservation or associating in any way with othehs to whom they might communicate thss disease.
 Gallup is situated in such way that the disease might easily be car ried to us, and everybody should take every precaution to curb the disease. Make as few visits to the reservation as possible, and use special care in handling materials shipped in from the reservation.-Gallup News.

SWINNERTON OF RED
 FLOODED ARTIST TYPE
By Evelyn Wells

James Swinnerton was something of a disappointment. Contrary to all of the iron laws of the artistic, he was up and breakfasting, although it could not have been more than 8 o'clock and the sun had been shining for several hours in the windows of his home at Los Altos.
 This was something out of the or dinary. The episode had news value. Here was an artist, man with a na- tional reputation and name to be lived up to daring to rise with chick ems of garden variety and eat sub stantial meal before the afternoon. At the risk of blacklisting James Swin- merton as scabber upon the ordinary routine of Art, let us add that the eff feet he produces of being a normal, rational human being does not seem a pose.
 He did not wear scarlet coat, nor had he tresses and an air of negli- gence.
 His tall boots had been made for hard service and his hair was close cropped. He might have passed for a picturesque gold seeker but for the delicate sturdiness of his long fingers and a mysterious appraising look in his slate-gray eyes.
 Whats to be Done?
 "It's a terrible thing-this business of getting interviewed" Mir. Swimmer ton began. Naturally, I don't want to give myself the worst of it and I am in the trying position of attempting to make an agreeable impression with out being able to talk at length about myself"
 He laughed, showing in that mo- ment that James Swinnerton is per son whose mind is controlled by a rare sense of humor. He does not take his work seriously" but accepts it as part of himself.
 Many illustrators take to oils as relief from the black and white" he said. Then he told about Jimmey.

THE VACANT CHAIR
By Harry (Nuf Ced) Casey

All alone--in sweet reverie. Musing-with his soul in mystery, His pride into madness has grown; He hugs his. wrongs-sorrow in his
 throne. He reaches for the soulless pen, But the thought of home checks him
 when He imagines he hears a rapping on
 the door And words spoken. "Our souls are
 one forevermare." He rises, turns the knob, opens the
 door; Twas a trick of the mind, nothing He mutters aloud, looks out the win
 dow Cursed be my thoughts into ever
 lasting limbo" Again he seats himself; resumes his
 task; Becomes the master of mind at last. But only for moment; he's filled
 with despair As his minds eye looks upon the Va
 cant Chair. He takes his pen; it glides on OCT the
 past, His soul responds to his will at last; Upon snow white virgin paper at hand He raves about the sorrow in the land. We travel life's journey in constant
 fear For our loved ones--year after year Many dear mothers die in despair Gazing to the last upon the Vacant
 Chair. Cruel world, nothing but struggle and
 strife For the many. The few have an easy
 life. The latter gay and happy, with never About the homes with Vacant
 Chair. Think of millions who now lie dead; Pools of blood, that has been shed; Anguish of mothers who burdens bear To realize Wars dead never fill the Vacant
 Chair Think of the sunshine, joy and bliss Given to mother reading a letter
 like this: Coming home, have loved ones pre-
 pare To see removed the ghastly Vacant
 Chair.
