use a pack of dogs to impede its
travel or to bring it to bay, when
they would close in on the animal and
dispatch it with their rifles.
Bear Hunt
In the autumn of 1856, bear in
prowling through the woods near the
Indian village, was discovered by. one
Of the squaws, who Immediately i'm
parted to others what she had seen.
Hoonch! Hoonch! was the cry and the
whole village was soon astir with
excitement. In short time a half
dozen Indians with their rifles and
dogs, made haste to the spot where
the bear had been seen. The pack of
dogs took up the trail by the scent
and followed it to the southwark,
while the Indians raced after them
as fast as they could travel The bear
led the procession through the town
of Westfield, passing west of Logan
vile, into Franklin, thence westward
into Bear Creek. The bear then cir
cled northward into the town of Wash
ington, where it finally took a stand
and bid defiance to its pursuers. The
dogs circled around the bear and kept
it busy in defending itself, until the
Indians finally arrived and killed it
with their guns. One Of the dogs that
ventured too close to the bear, was
killed by a blow from it's paw. This
bear was killed on the Richard In
man farm in section 25, town of Wash
ipgton. Mr. Inman hearing the bark
ing of the dogs, took his rifle and
went out to learn the cause of the
commotion, arriving upon the scene
Of action a short time after the bear
was killed.
The bear was skinned and cut ups
into pieces convenient for carrying
Before the Indians left the spot how
ever, fire was kindled and portions
of the bear meat were roasted. When
all hands including the dogs, had
Toasted to their fill, the dusky hunters
started back to their village carrying
the bear hide, the carcass of the dead
dog and what remained of the bear
meat Incidents of this nature were
frequent occurances during the early
years of settlement by the whites.
Ideal Location
The location of Indian village was
usually on the bank of lake or river,
but this village was inland. There
was however a large spring near by
which at all times of the year was
bountiful source to a tributary of
NarTows creek. This afforded an am
pie supply of water for the village,
and hills on all sides except to the
east, gave an excellent protection from
the chilling winds of winter. There
was plenty Of hardwood timber in
the region about, and all things con-
sidered it was an ideal spot for a
camping ground, and wisely selected
rcr q native village.
In the latter part of the year 1861,
n-ho-cho-ka Glue Wing), sold the
forty acres. of land including the In
dian village site, to w. w. Henderson
of Reedsburg, Wis. The village was
then abandoned, the Indians making
their quarters on the south bank of
the Baraboo river about miles north
west of Redsburg, where their lodges
could be found in varying numbers
until about 1915.

Game Plentiful

We learn from. the records OF the
early French traders and trappers
that black bears were formerly very
numerous in the valley of the Bara-
boo river. Their trails were every
where present in the woods and
swamps and the animals were even
more plentiful than deer. The western
portion of Sank county was no ex-
ception to the rule and in the early
DAYS bears were often seen by the
settlers, who occasionally lost pig
or sheep from night raid by these
marauders.
The Indians were very fond OF bear
meat, and were ever ready to engage
in a bear hunt, both for the excite
ment of the chase and to obtain food.
With the Indians the bear and the
deer were fesere staple objects of pur-
suit. The flesh OF each afforded ex-
ceilent food and, the pelts were also
valuable 70 them Bear grease was

FIRST SNOW MADE ITS BOW
Real Old Fashioned Storm Covered
Ground With White

The first snow of the winter came
with a whirl of wilderness this morn
ing. A high northeast wind came
with it and five inches Of snow drift
ed by the breeze made it truly win
ter day. The storm is general over
Kansas and of msch benefit to the
wheat where it stays in blanket on
the fields. The temperature was mod
crate during the day, only few de-
grees below freezing, and the snow
fall lessened in the afternoon.
The snow has delayed trains In
western Kansas. No. 104 Of the Union
Pacific was stalled in drifts. No
snow is reported at Concordia and vi
cinity, the heavier fall being in the
southern and central parts OF the
state.
Farmers say the snow is staying
on the fields WELL being held by the
growth of weeds and other rough
ness.
Clearing skies are predicted for to-
night with colder temperature.
