SCARED THE RED MEH
HOW A CROWD Of CATTLEMEN BROKft
UP A GHOST DANCE.
A Romm CaxHll* Romhirdmoot Thmt
fltempoded the Three Hundred Braves
mad Started Them on a Run That Last
ed Into the Neat Day.
“We never called Rooney by the
aame of Jaok, although hia Christian
name was John, and in the cattle coun
try they was tew men named after
Christ's chief disciple who waa not
known as Jaok. Wo always called him
John Rooney. The last 1 ever heerd of
him he were living up in Nebraska, not
far from Ogallala, on tbe south fork of
the Platte, just aftnr the stream loaves
the Colorado line. ”
Thus discoursed a former cattleman,
who is now pursuing a peaceful and
oommonplaca life in Kansas City, the
other evening. He was talking of life
on the big cattle range in the days whan
the fame of Dodge City, Abilene, Hayes
City and Kills was on the wane as tough
towns of Kansas and their upbuilding as
law abiding communities had begun.
“In them days,” he oontinned, "our
openings for fun was less frequent than
national holidays are at present. It was
mostly hard riding, and lots of it It
gives ns all a sorter yearning to bust
loose the oiaohes and raise hell at the
first opportunity, and sometimes the
way we did it was as unique as they
was startling. Ths time 1 speak of in
this pertickler yarn wo was grazing a
big bunch of cattle, mostly long horns, in
the Cherokee strip, along the north
fork of the Canadian river, within a
day's riding of old Fort Supply. The
Oaages and some other tribes nsed to
oomn in there for their green corn and
harvest dances and have higbfallootin
ole times In general. We all remarks
this and speaks of it sorter scornful be
cause we did not like Injuns muoh no
how. When I say this, I don't mean
that Rooney was the one to put the
quirt to tne Injuns, tie was overquiet
OB the subject. He generally was peaoe
fullike and oa’m. He was a thinker,
Rooney was, and with some schooling
and a little politios would have been a
great man in the oity I 'low.
“About this time the camp begins to
got short on grub, and some four or five
of the boys was sent to Medicine Lodge,
across the Kansas line, with wagons to
bring back a supply of necessaries. Kan
sus was not a prohibition state then,
and you could get most any kind of
stimulant in Medicine Lodge—that is
to say, they bad rye and Bourbon whis
ky. and 1 suppose they also had beer.
In them days I never could see the vir
tues of beer.
“As I was saying, you oould get
about any kind of liquor you wanted in
Medicine Lodge, and so we kept pretty
well wet. Rooney here displayed bis
sagaoity. While we all had forgotten
all about them pesky Injuns he comes
in one day we was to leave and puts in
to the wagon about 20 of them big rq
man candles that shoot ten timea you
know, eaoh shot a big ball of yellow,
red or bluish flame.
“ ‘What you going to do with them
Fourth of July flxings now?’ we all asks,
seeing as hew it was getting oloser to
Thanksgiving. ’
“ ‘Never you mind that,’ said John,
kinder winking his eye southeast.
“ So we all was mighty ourious dtprigg
the trip faaok to the Canadian, but says
nothing. A few days after we gets baok
Kepi Injuns begins gathering for a an
lal feast of some kind, ana then one
night they prepares for one of them
dances. Of course, all of the boys what
oould be spared wanted off to see the
of war and unfolded the secret of them
roman candles what be bought at Med
ians Lodge. He tells all the boys, some
16 in cumber, to stay with him, and
leads Uie way to the timber, where the
ghost dance was going on. We all takee
one of them roman oandles and no one
speaks a word or ooogbs or makes any
lond signs.
“ When them 800 braves was a-tearing
up the ground and yelling at the neignt
of the dance, we gets the word from
Rooney and lights op them oandlee
simultaneous, and they begin shooting
fire and brimstone into them Injuns
sure enough. The boys wasn’t used to
shooting off them things and was about
half scared tbeirselves at the devilish
hissing and the sparks, but them Injuns
—well, I can't say what they thought,
but it was plain bow they acted. Some
of 'em took to the other side of the
woods, some jumped straight up, a lot
went for the north fork of the Canadian,
running so fast it 'ud take four men to
see 'em. Stop then? Well, I guess ngt.
They jumped right in and swum for
dear life. They never stopped to see
that the blamed fire had quit, and fal
len working on the range the other
side of the fork said they saw them
running the nest morning when they
was just starting ibetr day's riding.
‘'That night's devtliuant like to got
us all Into trouble, though, and the
most of ua discreetly struck out far
Kausaa to avoid any uupleasant uouse
qaeui'ea. But laugh—say. I never laugh
