Ono Incident, however, began with all thn
halloo of a big sensation, but dwindled down
I to 0 false alarm After the exertion of not

1 It was while Mr. Garner was In Denver
tint he determined to make a run after
some moonshiners whom he learned were
I operating up toward tho top of tho Platte

i A few hours' rldo on the train brought
tho manhunters to the place where It was
I necessary to leave tho railroad. Thenco
.horses carried them some distance farther
1 up thn Platto canyon nnd off Into a branch
known as the Geneva canyon.
Hern It became neccsfary to ndopt a
1 still different mode of travel, for the eoun
! try was so precipitous and nigged thnt
I horses could proceed no further. Shoulder
j lug their pack and their rifles tho sturdy
band started on afoot. I'p the Geneva
I canyon for five miles ihey clambered, and
1 then turned off Into another branch, tht
I Throc-Mlle gulch. Here, about thrre mllet,
