Their first camp after leaving there
was visited by Indians who professed
their friendship by signs. They were
permitted to approach the camp, when
it was noticed that one of them car
ried a sword. This he exhibited with
pride, and generously handed it to a
Clark's fork man, Colonel Smith, to
examine, while the Indian asked in
return to take Smiths revolver. Smith
gave it to him, and was Immediately
shot dead. The rest Of the party ran
into the bushes, and so escaped with
no further injury than one man shot
through the muscle of the leg.
Meanwhile the contractor had been
having his troubles. One day seven
stalwart Sioux warriors entered his
house, without knocking. or other
warning of their arrival-one may be
certain who is at all familiar with
Indian etiquette-and demanded to be
fed. 1t was no time to demur at ex-
tending hospitality to the unlimited
guests, who could not even be request
ed to put in a half hour or so at the
woodpile before eating. Davies accept
ed the inevitable; but sat with his
truSty rifle across his knees, and kept
close watch of his guests, while his
wife cooked their meal and served
them. The Indians ate their fill and
then peacefully departed. After they
left Davies was about to put up his
gun, when he discovered what nearly
made him faint-the gun was not
loaded.
Fired at House
On another occasion 20 mounted
braves swept by the Davies house be-
tween it and the river, firing at the
house as they passed. A man by the
name of Morgan who was In the house
tried to make a loophole through
which to shoot. by knocking out q
piece Of the mud thinking. He sue
ceeded, but an Indian who noticed
what Morgan was doing, fired at the
hole with such accurate aim, that the
shot went through Morgan,s hat and
cut away lock of his hair. Enraged
at this attack, Morgan rushed to the
door, threw it open, and discharged
his gun at the then fleeing Indians,
wounding one of them in the hip.
Sometime before the return of the
ferrymen, three prospectors who were
journeying to the Yellowstone, came
to a place that was covered with
clumps Of bushes, with wide interview

Postal Authorities Warned Public Against Mailing
 Food Packages

Postal regulations forbid the mail- ing of food to men in the service, Postmaster Charles A. Babin warn ed last night. He said that num- Der of packages examined here were found to contain food, cake and other similar banned items.
 Probably the main reason for banning shipments of food is the danger that it will attract rodents to the mails, and thus many pack ages not containing food may be damaged. Also men in the Army are sufficiently well fed so as not to need food from here.
 Among the items which may be mailed are chewing gum, tobacco, cigarettes, novelties and hard can- dies that are not packed in glass Chocolates, canned foods and per- ishable foods will not be accepted in the post office, Babin warned.
 Packages must be securely wrap ped in corrugated containers in or der to stand the perils of a trip to England or Australia. The gifts must fit in packages about the size of a sohe box and must not weigh more than Il pounds. Deadline for all gifts to men in the service out of the country is November I.

Two Agencies al Odds
Over Operation Of
Pentagon Cafeterias
Welfare Association and
Private Contractor Both
Push PIuns to Run Them

They're still eating at the Penta-
gon Building. but no one is certain
who will serve the next meal.
The issue is confused by a juris-
dictional dispute between the War
Department and FWA's Public
Buildings Administration as to who
will operate the cafeterias, lunch
bars and beverage bars at the
Pentagon.
A private contractor, Walter p.
Mcfarland, who was given q sub
contract by John McShain, building
contractor. has been operating the
concessions for more than a year.
Indications today were that he ex-
poets to continue this arrangement.
Meanwhile, Capt. F. w. Hoover,
general manager of the District
Welfare and Recreational Associa-
ton, said he is still mapping plans
to take over the lucrative Pentagon
eating and beverage concession De-
cember through arrangements made
sometime ago with the Federal
Works Agency.
Large Sums Involved.
Both sides have considerable sums
of money involved. Mr.. Mcfarland
and his associates have made large
investments in properties and i'm
provements during the past year.
The welfare association, assuming
it would take over, has sunk $275 900
in movable equipment.
Aside from investments in equip
ment, Mr.. Hoover said his organiza- =
ton is expending around $500 each
day in salaries and training ex-
penses for number of skilled per-
sons who were hired to run the
Pentagon cafeterias.
I'VE can't drop these people from
our payroll until we're sure the
cafeterias and beverage concessions
in the Pentagon are not ours" ex-
planned Mr.. Hoover. And, frankly,
we don't know now whether we have
them or not"
Efforts to get clear-cut picture
from the War Department were met
today with the fat statement, mo
comment"
Agreement Being Worked Out.
A reliable informant said there
are many intricacies" involved. He
intimated that action is being taken
to work out an agreement imme-
diately.
Uncertainties developed following
a conference between PBA and War
Department officials reported to
have been held lsat Tuesday.
Although the FWA was reported
to have agreed to operating the
cafeterias under certain conditions"
stipulated by the War Department,
the agreement has not been re-
turned, thereby creating state of
indecision for all of the parties
concerned.
Employees at the Pentagon Build
ing are said to be watching the
developments with interest. One
report said the United Federal
Workers of America is passing
around a petition which asks the
welfare association to speed its ef-
forts to take over the cafeterias and
beverage bars.
While no one in Mr.. Mcfarland s
Office would affirm that he hopes to
continue his cafeterias in the Pen
tagon, an advertisement in Sunday s
newspapers by his organization Of
fered permanent positions" to pas
try cooks at the building.
