He appointed an Indian police; established more sanitary conditions in the "Ranche," numbered the houses, and compelled the attendance of the Indian children at the Mission School. A school was opened in the old Russian barracks building on April 17, 1878, by Rev.

During the week which he and Scip had been spending at the ranche, seven or eight new men had been taken in by Swanson, who, as was before said, was getting in shape for the spring round-up. Of these new men six were Pinkerton detectives, and at this particular time were several miles from the ranche herding cattle.

They rode on past the ranche, but two men who were riding at the head of the column turned off and came up to him. One was Mr. Gilbert and the other was Captain Clinton.

"Go slow, Halson.

"I reckon," said Brace dubiously; "I don't know but I'd take a little pasear into the town if I had my horse ready." "Take mine, and I'll trapse over on foot to the Ranche with Crosby after a spell.
