EXAGGERATION Of INDIAN
ATTACKS IN WEST IS told
Prof. Hubert, Director Of Commission
on Western History, Reaches Con-
clusion After Much Research.

Colorado Springs, ColO.-Historical
fiction of the Wild West appears to
have exaggerated the number OF
sanguinary attacks by Indians upon
immigrant trains along the old Oregon
trail. Nature, and not the aborigines.
furnished most Of the dangers en-
countered by the pioneers.
These conclusions have been reached
oy Prof Archer Fl. Hubert, director
Of the commission on western history.
who has just completed the task of
mapping six of the most famous old
trails from the Missouri river to the
Pacific coast.
In a space of forty miles along the
Carson river on the trail broken by
the forty-niners. 1000 dead cattle and
1900 abandoned wagons were left to
record the history of the hardships
they suffered in the trek for gold.
Miners built houses Of these wagon
wrecks in the days Of the Comstock
lode discovery In Nevada decade
later
Great rivers were not difficult to
cross when flats" or RATS were Sc
cured, but the thousands of little "cut-
bank" creeks not more than ten feet
wide were the daily terror Of the
teamsters and delayed the caravans
more than did the few rivers of width.
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1926-06-01

Trappers and gold hunters suffered
from Indian attacks more than did
the great immigrant trains in the era
of mass migration to Oregon. Between
1912 and 1850 the number of trains
that were seriously molested by the
red men were few. the investigators
found.
Information used in the survey and
map making was obtained from state
and county surveyors Offices. from the
original surveys in the general land
office at Washington and by studying
the diaries of $50 old-time travellers
and pioneers.
In addition to the Oregon trail the
map reprOduces the routes of the Nor
mon trail fork from Omaha to Fort
Laramie; the Nebraska City-Fort
Kearney branch; the California trail
from Yale post office. Idaho, to the

ONCE PROUD MONITOR, LAST
OF TYPE, JOINS JUNK PILE
Y. s. S. Cheyenne, Still In Good
Order, Goes to Keep Her Ron
devious With Davy Jones.

Baltimore, Md.-Trailing ignomini-
ously at the end of towline, once
proud monitor and last Of her type
recently moved toward her grave-a
junk pile at Hampton roads.
One Of four sister ships laid down
in 1904, the Cheyenne, originally the
Wyoming, started her death march
alone with the U. S. S. Owl, a navy
yard tug stealing ahead like CON
science-stricken executioner The Tai
lahassee, the last Of her sisters, felt
the acetylene torch 20 years ago.
Sixty-six years back in American
history the monitor type, embodied In
John Ericsson's Monitor nemesis OF
the Merrimac, revolutionized naval
practice. Monitors maintained Presi-
dent Lincoln's blockade of southern
ports during the Civil war.
The present and last monitor, living
to see her once all-powerful type be-
Titled by modern development, epit-
omized naval progress when she
served as a mother ship for subma-
rines on the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts during the World war. The
Cheyenne, then the Wyoming, also
was the first naval vessel to feel the
thrust Of modern oil-burning engines.
Experiments conducted aboard the
Wyoming have since led the Navy de-
partment to take steps for the CONVEX
sion Of all remaining coal burners.
For more than five years the Chey-
enne has served as the training ship
of the Fifth Naval Reserve district
and with her passing the Baltimore
water front loses a bit Of romance.
The original Monitor Indirectly was
protecting this port when 1t destroyed
the Merrimac in Hampton roads.
Under her own power, around the
Virginia capes from Philadelphia, the
Cheyenne came to Baltimore In Oc-
tober. 1920. 1t is through no fault of
her own that she is dragged away on
the end Of chain, like criminal to
the gibbet. Her engines are sturdy
and fit, her propeller trim-but she is
obsolete and her crew is gone: Part
Of her crew has been transferred to
Eagle boat Sc, her successor, and the
remainder has gone on the inactive
list.
So, with her fireroom cold and her
decks deserted, the last of the mont
tors keeps her rendezvous with Davy
Jones,
