Herrill, who is lately from Benton county and in the employ of James Miller, had a deathly terror for Indians, and his fellow workmen, while camped at Cold Springs, concluded to play a practical joke on him. At an appointed time one of them hit a pan a tremendous blow, when a hue and cry was raised that the Indians were after them and a general rush was made from the eamp. One man acted as though he was pulling an arrow trom another, who was crying “I’m shot! I'm shot!” and sun- dry maneuvers wero indulged in, which doubtless left no doubt in the mind of Her rill that they were in reality pursued by Indians, and he ran with all might and main from the scene. The others shortly returned to camp, but Herrill did not make his appearance. A search was instituted, but all efforts were in vain.
