WASHINGTON, June 18.-Pilots

than their share of thrilling expert

His Besetting Weakness
pike" was noted for three qualities
which he possessed, each in a most
degree. He was the soul of gen.
crosby when a friend was involved. On
the other hand, he was the bitterest n
most uncOmpromising of enemies. Lastly
and most unfortunately for the man, 40
in Montana ever had an equal repu-
tation with him for ungovernable temper
and fits Of rage and passion. This trait
near to causing his death On a
score of different occasions, and was per-
haps the quality which led to his untime-
ly death at the hands of kid" Curry in
Jew Jake's saloon at Landusky.
Trapper and WOIfer
1t was in 1868 that Landusky pulled
away from the Diamond r people and
Last Chance. Forming a partnership
with another soldier of fortune i the
wilderness-John Wirt-he went down
the Missouri river to the vicinity Of the
mouth of the MuselsheI1 and engaged in
trapping and wolfng. Writ was a well
known pioneer of the gold camps and in
central Montana. Level-headed, cool and
fearless, he was quite the opposite type
to the impulsive, reckless Landusky.
This new occupation furnished the
youthful pike" with ample excitement
from the very start. Hostile Sioux Ind
ans were COUJllUOuS III JuC1L IdAOS uPOL
the camps of white trappers and wood
hawks at the mouth of the Musselshell,
and trapping operations were ever at
tended by dangers Of the most adventur-
Gus brand. BY the late fall of 1868, Lam
dusky and Writ had accumulated fur
worth more than $500 at the current
prices and these they placed in a cache
on Holly Flat, near h mouth Of the
Musselshell on the Missouri, while they
made a trip to the new town Of Carroll
to secure supplies. With their furS and
pelts they also hid their camp outfits and
most of their other possessions.
Furnishing a Sioux Warrior
During their absence a war party Of
10 Brule Sioux discovered the cache
seized the camp outfit and cut the furs
up for their own personal use as leg
gings, etc. Upon their return, as Ian
dusky and Writ approached h cache
on Holly Flat, they were met by TIT
Sioux war party. The Indians were al
painted n stripped for fight, and the!
surrounded the trapper pair, escortinl
them across the river, the chief d~esignat'

The white men were given some buf
