March l, 1876, tells of the use of
the travels after a fight on Powder
river as follows:
con the morning of March II,
after an exhausting night march,
the command struck an Indian vii
lage on Powder river and fought
for several hours, the Indians max
ing a brave defense. AS soon as
they were driven from the village
it was easy to construct travaux
from the lodge-poles, and upon one
of these, curious conveyances,
which | constructed in Is minutes,
Private Egan, of Co. K, End cav
airy, who received a penetrating
wound of the abdomen, was
brought about one hundred miles
over the toughest trails, to the am
bulance station, which he reached
in a convalescing condition. | had
never seen, or thought of, such a
method of transportation for the
wounded before, and am naturally
much pleased at the perfect sue
cess attending theiv use. We fol-
trails over mountains and ra-
vines where it seemed impossible
for a horse to go. and although the
frequent exigencies of precipitous
side-hills and deep gulches elected
much forcible and profane langu-
age, addressed to drivers and mules
to secure safe conduction, no acct
lent occurred"

THE TRAv0lS, ANCIENT TRANSPORTATION
DEVICE OF DND1AMS5 ARMY MADE USE OF
TRAW01S FOR TRANSPORTING WOUNDED
TN THE MIDDLE '7Os when

TN THE MIDDLE '70s when
troops of the United States
were in the field in southern
Montana and northern Wyoming
engaged in the campaign to put
down Indian uprisings, and when
many bloody engagements were
had with the warning tribes, the
troops were frequently hard put to
care for and transport their wound
ed back to their regular posts for
disqualification.
In most of the instances when
pursuit of the marauding bands
had carried the troops far from
routes over which wagon ambul-
ances could be transported, when
the whole command was in the sad
die with no methods of carrying
the wounded except by hand or
through the use of saddle horses or
pack mules, the surgeons and Off
GERS in command were compelled to
resort to the Indian travels, sug-
gested by co%ntrivances in use by
the Dakota or Montana Sioux.
By the use of the travels, drawn
by inc animal, and two-mule filters,
many of the founded were carried
for great distances over mountains
and plains, one instance being on
record of a wounded soldier being
moved in a travels over 100 miles
of the toughest trails and arriving
at an ambulance station in a con-
valescing condition.
Such a continuance was used by
Assistant Surgeon J. w. Williams
in caring for the wounded after the
battle of the Little Big Horn, June
rs, 1876, and which he described
in his report of that battle as fol-
"The ordinary tepee poles, with
which the Indians pitch their tents
when in villages, are also used in
constructing the travels. The Da-
kota and Montana Sioux, who use
mountain pine or ash poles, select
straight, well-proportioned sap
of those woods, trim them
down to the proper size and taper,
and lay them aside to season. The
dressed poles are about 80 feet long
and two to two and a half inches
at the butt, and one and a half
inches at the other extremity. The
oval couch is made exclusively of
ash, bent into the desired shape

FIRST TRIP U IN
FORTY-SIX YEARS
CAME UP THE RIVER ON BOAT IN
1873; 45 DAYS TRIP FROM
ST. LOUIS
Lived in the First House to be Built
in Great Falls; Husband Was the
First Contractor in Great Falls;
Made One Trip to Helena.

Mrs. w. G. Jones, one of the first
white women to come to Great Falls,
and who lived for 20 years in the
first residence erected in that city,
left for the east a few days ago, it
being her first trip, with the excep-
tion of a journey to Helena, she has
made out of Great Falls since her
arrival there.
Mrs. Jones came to Fort Benton
as a girl in 1878, being six weeks
and three days in making the trip
on a steamboat up the Missouri river.
In 1888 she was married to Whitman
G. Jones, contractor and builder, bet
ter known as Vinegar" Jones, be-
cause of his having established the
first vinegar factory in Great Falls.
In 1884, 40 years ago, Mr.. Jones
moved to Great Falls, being the first
carpenter and builder on the prairie
upon which the townsite was marked
out. Mrs. Jones followed one year
after. and since that time has been
a constant resident of the town, ex-
cept the making of one trip to Hell
ena three years ago on necessary
business. She was 10 years of age
when she came to Fort Benton with
an uncle, her parents having died,
and her brother being left with other
relatives. During her SO years in
Great Falls Mrs. Jones raised a fam
lily, attended to her household duties,
aided her neighbors in trouble and
in joy, and was happy in her every
day work without the excitement of
travel.
Mrs. Jones lived in the first house
erected in Great Falls for more than
20 years, being the little log house
which yet stands at Sig Fifth avenue
south, and which is still the property
of Mr. and Mrs. Jones. The house
was built for Mr.. Jones in 1883 by
Joe Pepper, and is today as sturdy as
when first erected, although plaster
ed inside and made a modern dwell
ing.
Mr.. Jones erected the first office
building of the Townsite company 40
years ago, the building now being
the resident of E. St~etzefandt, across
the alley north of the rear of the
Bach-Cory block on First street north
between Central and First venue
north. At that time there were but
about four buildings in the city, all
and n livery stable.
Mrs. Jones came to Fort Benton
on the steamer Helena of the Block
P line, belonging to the late t. G.
Power and associates.

when a travois is to be rugged,

riously wounded men carried on
these conveyances all stated that
they found this mode of transport
easy and comfortable.
The travels was used to trans
port some of the wounded from the
battle with Indians on Rosebud
creek, Montana, June II, 1876,
when the big Horn and Yellow
stone Expedition" commanded by
General George Crook, was attack
ed by a force of about 1900 Sioux,
Crooks force consisting of about
1850 men, of whom $50 were
friendly Crow and Creek Indians.
In this affair the troops lost nine
killed and 19 wounded.
In his report on the care of the
wounded from this battle, Assist
ant Surgeon A. Hartsuff wrote:
< Having no base, and be-
ing thus entirely surrounded, and
the position of all the troops con-
stantly changing, it was necessary
that the medical officers of the
command should be very active and
vigilant to prevent any of our
wounded falling into the hands of
the enemy. The wounded were all
collected together and their wounds
hastily and rudely dressed, neither
time nor circumstances allowing us
to give them the necessary care and
attention.
Frequently during the fight we
had to move the wounded to safer
positions. Not a drop of water
could be obtained during the day,
for we were on the hills and the
nearest water, Rosebud, a miser-
able little stream, two miles away.
AT about | p. m, the firing had
nearly all ceased, the Indians hav-
ing r~etreated down the Rosebud. 1t

water, and a very considerable loss

One Reason
for Nervous
Disorders

VOUR doctor can tell you that
/ nervous disorders are very com
non among Americans. One reason
for this is found in the fact that they
are great coffee drinkers.
Coffee contains caffeine, a drug,
prescribed by doctors as an emergency
stimulant for the heart and nervous
system. 1t has a tendency to increase
blood pressure, develop heart irreg-
ularities and cause digestive dis
t%urbances.
If you feel that coffee is not good
for you, serve Postum as your meal
time drink.
Postum is a pure cereal beverage
that refreshes and satisfies. 1t is alb
solutely free from caffeine or n
other irritating drug.
Try a cup of Postum with your
dinner or supper tonight. Postum is
sold everywhere.

The baby, girl, died last Saturday

Both made detailed confessions OF

both assumed blame for the shooting
of the cashier. which is expected to
produce charge Of attempted murder
against them in addition to alleged
robbery and grand larceny.
Cooney declared that he was the

it was he who did the shooting.
The bandit mother contradicted him
