The two guns the Indians had car ried were lying there and scattered about were bones, bits of clothing and empty shells. The carcasses of sixteen dead wolves lay stretched In a circle about the trampled patch of snow. SPRING HILL Miss Ola Chason, of Rabrun Gap, Ga., is the guest of relatives here dur. mg the holidays.
