Karly In tlio snrliiir of I.fi2 , John WntUlns
was seized with the \vrafarn fever , mill a
few weeks later ItntlarkOtVUio etitlro fiuii-
ily , ttien consisting of tliti fatlu-r , inotlior ,
fourRrowu up sons anil thrco daughters.
The question of inovitiR to tha thou iinltihab-
tteil west was discussed by all the mi'.uilHTs
of the family , and it was soon nprpcil that
thollttlo , roclsy farm of ten acres in YorJ <
state , which had lirrn hnndnd iloun from
Roncratton to Rciicrnllon , was too small for
the brawn and brain of the coys.
At Hist iho Rlrls cntiTcd n mild protest ,
but eventually their objections were over
come by the father , who tirnucd that If they
moved to the lar west nntl entered govern
ment land it would not bo long before the
Wntl.lns family would upronio rich nnd fa
mous. Around the llrcsldo the old man jite-
turcd his broad acres of untln waving in the
sun and waiting for the reaper's Unlfi1. Ho
nlso drew n mind picture of the herds of
caitlp , Micoi ) and horses grazing upon the
hills of Borne of the western states. These
pictures were of a kind to make iho artist
blush at his own Inability , nnd eventually
they conquered all objections which the
\Yntkina plrls had to leavltifc the eastern
homo and their former associates.
The farm was advertised iti the vllloRO
paper ntiil tlio next wcok a buyer was found ,
who took the land nnd all of the personal
property , with the exception of some heir
looms which were packed away and shipped
with tlio private effects.
On u bright moraine in the early part of
the month of May the Watt-Ins people were
bidden godspeed by their old neighbors and
loft tha roof which had sheltered their an
cestors for many u generation , their ob
jective point behiK Iowa , as they had heard
that that was aland which ( lowed with milk
unu honey. As they jotinicycil westward
they listened and while upon the swift
moving train they heard many tales of tlio
fertility of the land of the Dakotns. Tliero
they beard that the land was as free as the
air and that the climate was as balmy as an
eternal tumiuior. Cpou reaching Chicago
they bought tickets to sli.ux City , tlio end of
tno railroad , nnd were soon spcading toward
their oal. From Sioux City they took
passage upon one of those old Uimberinir
statre coaches , a roltc of by-gone ages , and
were soon in u land that had never responded
to the tread of a white man. They passed
by Klk Point. Yurmillion and SpVingtield ,
now prosperous cities , but then mere frontier
hamlets , inhabited by squaw. men and
pioneers.
Late in the afternoon of May ' - ' . " . the
driver stopped to water his horses at a clear
brook , ami us the elder Witt-tins looked from
the window ii : the side of tire Concord coach ,
the panorama that nafitro had spread out
before his eyes , caused him to exclaim :
"Hero's the promised laud. "
.lumping to the ground ho beheld a beau
tiful valley , miles in Icnplli- through winch
meandered a stream of.yalpr , so pure that
it might have been a drink lit for tlio gods.
Above him be gazed upon a cloudless sky ,
while beneath his feet was a carpet of green ,
nnd as soft as the most expensive moiiuettc.
The hilts were tinged with Iho golden sun
set , giving them the appcaranco tf being
great gems , set in green. The change was
in such striking contrast \x'iUi iho rocks and
woods of tile c.tstorn sliito , . that here the
AVatkinscs copdudpd tohipqnd Ihejremaintlcr
of their days. ' Their litggngo Hvns'Mjundled
olTtho lx > ot of the stage umt.tho old vehicle
was allowed to move on toward its destina
tion which ut that ilmo was one of the up-
Hvnr posts.
That night \Vatkinses , old ana young ,
bad some blankets and the broad canopy of
heaven lorn covering , but the next morning
the father and sons commenced the erection
of a cabin , catling the trues from iho b.inks
of the stream. They called to their assist
ance : in old squaw man , Paul Chotuu , who
was the owner of a yoke of oxen , r.nd before
thn end of the week the family was housed
within tlio walls of its own cottaae. A
trip was made to Yankton , where' oxen ,
plows and n large supply of provisions were
purchased , after which the work of turning
over the virgin soil was commenced. Corn
was planted and tlio yiela was abundant ;
liny was imulo and when winter came on
everything was in readiness for the rigors
of the Dakota bliz/ard.
The Sioux Indians wore about the only
neighbors , but they were on friendly terms
and were always welcome visitors at the
Vatklns residence , where they were fed and
warmed. The winter passed without inci
dent , and with the coming : of spring provi
sions were iiitide for planting a crop. The
wheat was put in the ground and the corn
was planted , but what was sowed was never
reaped. First , the grasshoppers scourged
the country , and then came the hot winds ,
burning uii what had been lefl by Iho grass
hoppers. The money iliat hail been received
from the sale of the Now York farm was
rupldly disappearing , and want und desola
tion were htalkimr in tie ) vicinity of the
household. Autumn came anil the situation
was growing worse , and then it was that the
father and som > decided that something
must bo done. They could not stay , nor
could they take tin-1 female inemuen. of the
family with them in their.search for worlf.
At last the father decided that ho and the
tlircti oldest boys would go away and limit
for work , Iciivlni : the youngest son , a strong
follow of uventj summers , to take euro of
the family.
One crisp October mnrnintr the foihcr ana
three eons dcuurted. hlddiii ! ! tlio other mem
bers of the family an aft'cctimmlu udleu , nnd
promising to return at Christmas time. Thny
journeyed through Iowa , bul were unable to
llnd work until llicy reached Juiuiuc'whero |
they found employment in the lead mines.
There they worked early and late , saving
their wages and Minding the money to iho
Dakotii home , from whunco letters came nt
stated Intervals , idling them that all was
well. They hail intended to rnlurii at Christ
mas , but as the tlmo drew nigh , they con
cluded that they could not afford iho ex-
pcnso nnd the visit was put off until iho
next spring. When spi Ing came wages in
thn miiK's were ralbod in : fabulous price ,
owing to the scarcity of men , and again the
\Vntklnsrscoiioltiilfxl to remain a few months
longer. J'licy wrote Hob , tlio boy at home ,
to this cftccl. lolliiiK Jum to cure for iho
women and put in the nap. In response to
this loiter thuro camo' tender missives ,
full of love nnd oWolfvawmcnt , und

nnd they were compelled by stress of
weather to pass Christmas fretting an 1
fuming around the soft-coal stove In a
dingy hotel barroom. The next day , though ,
the slot in had abated so that the slago
could proceed. The weary homo-serkcrsmado
friends with the stage drivers , especially the
ono who drove the Chotnu creek
end of the route. He was intcrroiatod
with reference to Iho U'atkinsos. but ho
Knew them not , and. in fact , had never
heard of them , though ho had p.issed Iho
station every day for more than six months.
This the father nnd ons thought was
strange : It caused them to have suspicions ,
bul their suspicions they kept to themselves ,
knowing ttiat it would not bo lot.g until thay
would know all , whether It might bo good
or bad.
All day long the horses plodded through
the docp snow , and , Just as the sun wits
sinking beyond the western hilis. the v\llr : \ >
ol the Chotnu creek was reached. Think
ing of the tlmo whou he lirst gaznd upon Iho
boautlesof that section of country. .John
Watkins threw up iho window of the coich ,
nnd , looking out toward the little grove of
coltomvooda that hid his liouso from view ,
ho JIHXV the smoke curling up from what itp-
pu.ircd to bo n do/.on or moro small buildings.
SpcakiniT to the IW.NS. ho remarked that
their mother , having an eye to business , had
platted a town and was boomlne the place.
The soim looked In the direction indicated
bv tholr father , but woio tumble to under
stand tlio situation. Addressing the knight
of Iho lines , the old man asked iho meaning
of the cluster of houses down in the grove by
the creek.
"Stranger in these parts ? " Inquired the
Jehu , us hu cracked the leadersover tha head
with the tip ot his lash. "That's an Indian
town , and Mother Afraid of the Hull is iho
queen of the place. "
U'atklns dropped back upon the cushion ot
the coach as though ho had been struck
down with u war club.
"Can it bo ( wsslblo that Mary has played
the red to win ami has thrown mo over for
a dirty redskin ? ' ' hu murmured.
"Hope I tiavo not hurt your feolin's , " re
turned the driver as ho bit off a section of
natural loaf , nt the same lime plying the
lash upon the leaders. Continuing the con
versation ho said , "Tlie old woman down
there In the valley had u husband who was
n white man , but hu wont away a couple of
years ago , and a few months after ho loft
she married'touch The Clouds , an Indian
chief , and has since been christened the
queen of the Uriftiug Gooao band of Sioux.1
"Your cryln' stranger , " added the driver ,
as ho watched Wntkins wipe a tear from the
corner of his loft eye.
The old man dented the charge , while his
right Hand crept down to his belt , where it
clutched the handle of n revolver.
There was a halt in the conversation , but
the stage rolled along and a few moments
later halted in front of the log cabin from
which Watkins and the boys had departed n
year nnd n hall urovious.Vatklnsaud his
l > o.ys Jumpetl out nnd wore at once surrounded
liy a score or moro Indians of different sizes
and sex. Working tus way through the
crowd , the old man entered the house , and
there , over it kultlu from whicn es
caped the odor of boiled doc. ho saw a
white woman standing , clad in the tradi-
uonal blanket , upon which stood out in bold
relief the letters , "U. S. I. U. " As he.
entered and advanced to the center of the
room , the woman turned her face toward
liim and in that face ho recognized his own
Mary. The recognition was mutual and for
a short space of time both man and woman
stood as though rooted to the ground.Vnt -
Klns was the llrst , to break the silence , and
with feelings akin to death , he asked , "Mary ,
what does this mean ? "
Straightening herself up to her full height
the woman responded that she had con
cluded to Imvo a man about the house and
had taken an Indian. Going to the corner
of the room and leaving the sharer of her
early troubled and joys stanning oeside. a
kettle of cooking dog , she soon returned with
a bundle wrapped in a piece ot squaw cloth ,
from which she produced u half-breed child
scarce throe ( lavs old.
Holding the little thing up to the view of
the wondering husband and sons , she re-
luarkcd : "John , bore's inv Christmas pres
ent. V.'hat do you think of it ? "
. The old man wan too full for utterance ,
and , rushing from the house , caught the de
parting stage and went to Fort Sully , where
ho enlisted in the regular army and a few
years later was Killed in a brush with the
Sioux.
The three hoys remained at the house of
their mother anddtidian stepfather and that
night learned that all of their sisters hud
taken unto themselves Indian husbands. A
year later these boys married into the. Sioux
nation and subsequently become prominent
In the councils of the tribe , as well as amass
ing large fortunes. Their success in life they
attribute to the return from the cast and the
fact of their mother presenting their father
with an Indian baby lor a Christiius present
long years ago. Pntciv AI. .

though Itvns , the
suecccdltiK morning
was much feeler
thnn it had hron nl
any tinui slnco our
advent Into the
marshes. Wo were
nil fatigued and
wont out with the
v:0 had suhjoi'tcd
ourselves to sitiiM
our arrival , and by
common consent do
toriiiltieil to jias * the
iforoiioon in ramp.
As there were shells
to bo loaded , guns to cle.m nnd buttons to
sow on , the morning proved a protltnblo ono
to nil.Vo mnn.iKctl to net into a rnthor
heated squabble when the question \vhowas
to remain in during the afternoon and "red
nil" tha house and prepare the ovpnitiK meal
obtruded itsulf , but wo llnally scttlod it by
a panic of hich-Hve , nnd of couiso Stocity
tut stuck. Then wo smoked , tulltcd diu-k
and Ion fed nrounil m ttio most luxnrlan
abandon. The lawyer's lon-f loirs wtnv
sprawllnj ; all about ttio tent until ho hit
unon the plnn of lyitiR on his back and cross
ing them , with the too of ono boot in thp nir
like the tip of a broken million .stnllt , Iloth
pulled away at t'io ' b.incful eUrarctti1. eortrod
hlmsolf ou KI\V turnips and read Tin : HUB ,
while 1 nut in m.v time packing aud bj.xinv a
lot of choice birds for friutuls m Omaha ,
with an ociwsltnml "bair'oti tlio sldo by way
of stimulation in the good work. Spot moved
Inipatiemly about , or coiled btmsslf in this
liny at the entrance , whuio he could keep
unrcmittius watoh and ward on all our
lllOVClllClltS.
I' or hours thorowns not the slightest mo *
tiijti in the tall poldou brown RI-USS which
stretched away to the south like n never
cndini ; occnn , nml Simcral said a storm w-.s
hrowiiig. Just what made him think so was
something too decji for oven an old sailor
liku inc. I couldn't detect any Indications of
n , meteorological disturbance , and 1 Isnow
the roglon had not been treated to nn.v thing
in the nnturo of a storm slnco early In May.
From the distant hike came the mi'Io'ilons
quack of the mallard , and once in a wh'lo
the wild cry of itio llsh hawk reached our
cars , 'quavering over the waters with remark
able distinctness. Later on I noticed a slight
tindulatory motion in Ihc yellow grass , and
that the Ilimy sky had bocoinc broken in the
wc.'Jt by a mass of sombre v.tpor llngud witri
cnicialil. T'lion , like huge ghosti , two crags
of clouds rene over this shoulders of the
northwestern sandhills. Up they shoved
themselves nbovo the dnrlc , bairen humps.
deepening as they advanced , lill they
frowned down upon Mcrjfan/.tr black as the
w'nprof ' the duslcy duck. As I hey came on
over they joined in ono ragu'cn mass and it
really looked , us the lawicr had predicted ,
as if wo were to have n storm.
i no mccoon uiacucncii. rue s\veus |
danced nnd the whitccaps fhishoj. while ihc
IlcUs of rice and cane tossed to and fro in
the constantly rising wind. The sieve pips
croaked and gr.itod In its tin shield in me
teat's top und iho Hies of our canvas abode
Happed ominously. Hurriedly wo prepared
for the downpour , but it never came. As
wa stepped to the opening , through
Iho flying send wo beheld a flock
of geese. They soenu'd unable to
s'.ccr themselves aright and even nbovo Iho
turmoil of the elements we. could hear
the old leader honking forth his stern man
dates. On they come , swooping and tumb
ling , until waited over the rim of the east
ern Handbills , were lost in the shadows be
yond.
Hut , as suddenly as it had risen this fierce
prairie gust subsided. Not n drop of moir.t-
uro fell , and the afternoon was ove.n moro
quiet and entrancing than ever. Of coiirsu
v\o were surprised at the sndilen HCCOIII !
chnnge , but mostngrcuuoly sj. The lawyer ,
however , insisted tliat we would catch it
yet before thebreaking of smother day.
It was nearly noon when Slmeral and I < le-
cided upon a program for ihti nfternoon , nnd
this was : i truinp up Hay ci * ol ; for a mal
lard shoot in the swampy meadow hinds ,
which for miles nnd miles border this tortu-
OIH rivulet. Kvery day slnco wo had been
in camp , night nnd morning , we hnd noted
great tot-ks ! of tneso ulrds coniing down the
valle.y and over the sandhills into the lako.
in fuel , when thcru as an : , fliglil at all ,
they were always to bo scon going uporcom
ing tlowi : tliUllttln plii-'teiilng river of the
plains. From these signs wo mituiMlly in
terred that somewhere up thu creek must be
a favorite roedlnz ground , nnd wo concluded
to talto the afternoon for investigation.
With it Jocund eood-uyn to Stocky nnd
Spot , \voslioulderod our I.efovcrsand nullcil
out.
out.Hay creuit Is n legendary stream and at
some seasons of the year Is ( julto a factor In
rounding out the plctnrcsiuoness | of Hie
country. Hut Just at this time It was pretty
low , nnd came crawling hero and dnsiilng
tlie.rp , down between the low Hand hills like
some fulmlo'is anaconda lulling its way
through tin ) t.niL'ly morass. Tlio higher ti | >

llnally , as you near its sprmiry source , tbe
country expands itself into immeasurable
ha.v lle'lds. Along Iho Hhorc.s of thn creels it
was mire nnd muck ovorywhi'iv , with
conical tussccka nnd dcceplivo Htnic holes
ihat rnado poilisirlanisni iiiivtlilng but a
pleasure. There was .struggling cuno und
isolated patchcB of rice , lee , in many places ,
while the smart weed and gr.iss was Itixiiri-
nut everywhere , making splendid feeditig
ground for malhtrd , teal and } acc ! , and
splendid shelter fur mu Urat , akunk and
coyote.

rather than to r Ivo himself Into thn bun-

nu.iuatioti of the bird revealud the fact thai
ho was but slightly wing tipped , und as I
said before , he preferred death beneath thn
waters rather than takn chances In an
effort to get away. "
Kor the next hour the lawyer nml 1 had
royal sport. Wo had itwehud ttio regi > : i
where the birds lived , ami never in my Ilfo
did I enjoy a shoot moro. At every 10.1
ynr.ls or so wo would "Jump" from ono to n
half dozen duckb , mostly mallards , but
liberally intcr-sprir.kled with teal. Thu
birds would gel up within easy shooting dis
tance , and befoi'O wo could fairly ru.ill'.o
what wo had done , we weru weighed doun
i.'illi game , a great portion of. which tut
"cached" In a neighboring hillside until \\o
started home.
About o'clock wo passed a httlo knoll on
the creek's shore , on which stoo.l a tcpoj. A
lire was burning near uy , nnd sprawling in
the grass bslde it Iny u bis , dii ty .Sioux ,
with a double-barrel shot nun lying across
his knees and a bunch of milliards pll d
against tlio topee's side. This was thu
autumn home of Crooked Horn , an ludiuii
trapper nnd market hunter. Wo made ;
endeavor lo uet him to talk , but ho was
urult and sullen , und as wo were not aflor
a.-alps , wo hid him goodbye and started for
camp. Wo returned down thn valley until
we ban recovered our ' cached" birds ; then ,
ns both weie about played out with our long
trump in Hie marsh , wo concluded lo cut
across the upland country and get in'.u uimp
as .speedily ; ; s possible.
Wo were pulling ourselves oat of tha
slough , ami hud almost reached a linn footing
when suddenly Simcral raised his l.ofovor ,
und in quick succession pulled off botti bar
rels.
1 thought , of course , Unit it was ; i r.ibbit ,
but the nevt instant was startled by seeing
a coyote Jump from out thu struggling reeds
and gr.us and streak it fur tin ; hills. It only
required a second for mu to give him two
more loads , but while 1 hit him both times ,
me shot were too small lo accomplish jny-
thing moro than lormrhim ; on to his bottom
velocity. As ho cleared the blow of thi >
sand hill ho tinned his frowsy head ; inJ
gave u.s a wild look , but a third shot from
Sim warned him against further liborlios ,
and another leap carried him bcyouJ our
sight.
After this enthusiastic little oxncrkneo
nothing occurred to waken our ciirlonty u-
til wo reached the top of the cam ! hill over
looking Camp Morgunzer. It prcscntcJ : i
sweet and peaceful scenj. Stocky was busy
with the uvcning meal. Omllsliiuir rmU
were Icjning against tlio big. . tetit , while behind -
hind it lay "whit looked like an aero of
ducks , their varied hues glancing In tlio
rajs of the loiverlng sun. Ttirougii tlu opan
front we cutiKht a glimpse of llio warm ro 'H
nnd greens of our blankets : Klin's mnci >
tosh hung loosely by the in-ck from thu tent
polo , while nil nbout this picture was com-
posrd of the commoner touches of sand and
I rairie grass. Off beyond lay Iho silent
Juke bathed in a Hood of guidon light from
tliu declining sun.
And such \vns our life in the f-ugonbeol
marshes , and while 1 have said nuthing
about how Stocky killed a big blue cr.ino ,
about the cyclone llrat s-.vopt down upon in
