I knew I was to see my husband and child ren again." That is the way Maria Hend rika Lip, 38, summed uo the five days she wandered lost among Yosemite's big trees while 75 men and a pack of bloodhound: hunted her. "I just got lost," she explained after rangers Buck Evans and Del Armstrong found' her Monday morning, silting on a rock near the Merced River. An experienced hiker, she be came confused by crisscrossing trails in Wawona Grove while walking alone Wednesday alter noon. She was hungry and her legs were scratched, but otherwise un hurt when found. Until she found the river, she had hunted scatter ed patches of snow for water and wild gooseberries for food. Wearing only shorts, a blouse and tennis shoes, she shivered as she huddled at night under rock cliffs in 38-d?gree temperatures in this High Sierra National Park. Evans and Armstrong, who had hunted along the river after the track of a single tennis shoe was lound, estimated she had wander ed 25 miles.

Barnett Co Mo LaLakes Gave Tip Leading To John s Capture Editor's Note: This is the con cluding article in a series of three written about old Fort Klamath and the Klamath Indians. By ELIZABETH M. LOOSLEY Captain Kclley wiped the sweat from his head and paced the floor. realizing he must do something at once. What was that noise? Maybe Ihe fiends hadn't waited till dawn as Molly said they would; maybe they were sneaking in to encircli the fort now! He called a sergeant, Jim Bar clay, and gave him a corporal's guard. He told him that the re sults of the night must be kept a secret. Rogue River John was in the Indian village. He was an escaped prisoner, and as such they. had the. power to capture him. Then he told Barclay the outlaw's plans. Kelley said, "You are to go into their camp and take this man We must end this insurrection once and for all. Get Rogue River John, hut look out for him. Gdt Ihe drop on him first, for he has the cunning of a maniac." The men Captain Kelley picked were men of fine mettle. He knew this, yet he was impatient, fear ful. In an hour's time, Barclay and his men were back. The sergeant snapped to attention to report that they had found Rogue River John in a wickiup, just as Molly had reported. While the eight men sur rounded the camp, Barclay went di rectly to the hut. Evidently the renegade was prepared to lead the Indians as he was dressed. He bulged out of the .side of the wickiup as Barclay stood at the entrance and dashed for a log spanning Fort Creek. He fired first with a rifle and then with a pis tol, but then nine shots volleyed and the whine of the bullets echoed on the thin night air. The outlaw dropped. They 1 e t him lie and returned to the fort. No Indians had appeared. They did not retaliate or show up at the fort for days. Characteristically, Sergeant Bar clay requested, "The water is froz en at our barracks, may 1 wash my hands here?" That was all. It was dirty work, but necessary. Still no Indians came from the encampment; . they knew they should not have harbored a prisoner knew they were wrong. The next morning dawned clear and cold, but sundrenched as only Klamath's days can dawn. Re sounding triumphant, the bugle sounded from the fort. To the sol diers it meant cheer, security. To Molly-what? The woman who came to Cap tain Kclley and saved from slaugh ter many innocent people, knew in her heart that she had done a noble deed, for she had not only Kept faith with her friends, the whites, but had saved her own tribe as she knew what would have been their fate at a later dale had they succeeded in destroying he fort as planned. Each year, as that date roller around, Molly LaLakes received from Captain Kclley gaudy, extrav agant presents. He sent many ;ils. She had saved many lives And in Ihe year 1935, at just about the same time of year anc n just such a snow storm, Moll; LaLakes passed away at Ihe agi of 107 years. One feels sure shi heard the bugle call clear and re assuring as she was summoned home. Molly LaLakes merited a mili tary funeral, but she died as she had lived, unsung among her tribe who never knew she had saved them unsung among the white people, for these facts were kept a secret. But now that no bodily harm or harsh criticism can touch her, this tribute is offered to a brave wom an, Molly LaLakes a true prin cess among women. ncri-i 1 17 V"" V . n 1 600 Spring St. Phone TU 4-5153 Nation Wide VAN - SERVICE r House to House City to City State to State EAD'S TRANSFER t STORAGE Banded It Licensed Broken S33 Market TU 2-4678 Two Soldiers Face Charges FT.

Sixth Pet Cemetery Started Here Klamath Falls pets now receive special consideration with the ad vent of the Pet Cemetery, which is directed by the Humane Soci ety, aided by the city. The cemetery, on Memorial Drive, provides lots of three feel by five feet for the burial of any small animal, but primarily dogs and cats. 'Annabelle Newton. ' former Klamath County treasurer, is largely responsible for getting the cemetery," Larry Mueller, care taker, said. He further stated that the agreement which was made between the city and Ihe Humane Society for the land had been brought about because of the many demands made lo local vet erinarians for a burial place for pets. y So far, the park has 26 animals. Its rose borders, lawns and graves will always be taken care of, as part of the money for the burials goes to Ihe society for the ceme tery s upkeep. Plans for the future include adding more lawn and a sprinkler system. "The interesting thing." stated Mueller, "is that the people who have pets here are of all ages, , young and old, and many visit the graves regularly and bring flowers." FATAL FAILURE KAMPALA.
