We were pretty Darrens about the Indians and kept a sharp lookout for them. At one time we bad quite a brash with a band of about 300 reds. They surrounded ut, and we dug trenches inside a circle of mess wagons. They pestered us two days, and we bad to tnnncl 200 yards for drinking water. Then we diore tbem'off. "One morning abont a month later an alarm sounded in our camp j just as day was beginning to break. I We rolled out of our blankets and looked around us. On all sides were j seen the enemy. Not tens nor hun- j dreds, but seemingly thousands of ; them, swarmed orer the prairies. "If dirt never flew before it did then. man sebed a shovel and dug trenches for dear life. Blisters blossomed on our hands in no time, and the sweat streamed from our faces, but there was no time to rest. We could see the Indians with their ponies lying down, the red devils peering over the horses and they covered the prairies as far as the eye eouH see. Occasionally an Indian could be seen running on foot from one horse to another. Farther away they were galloping asound on horseback. "In the few minutes between the early morning twilight and daybaeak we bed trenched and fortified ear camp. Then we refesed to await the attack of the Indians. "I don't know who came to hi3 senses first, but as daylight streamed over the prairie the mists cleared * ? 1 Ipom Derort our eyes ana some one cried in a startled Toiee. * They're prairie dogs.' "And prairie dogs they were. We had oamped in the middle of fheir Tillage and not an Indian within miles. Psychologists say that what a man expects to see, hell see. Our fear fraught minds bad transformed the prairie dogs into mounted Indians and a company of thirty men had suffered the same illusion. Our blistered hands and deep dug trenches testified to that."?Kansas City Star. ived a Car It Lot You Will >e. Prices I joes with every pi k n i g h mbia, S. C. I Pelica Eappeaiags.
