The remarkable feature of this adventure consists in these naked and bare foot Indians having in forty days traversed on foot two thirds of the state of Kansas, a large portion of Colo- rado, and two thirds of New Mexico, without having been seen, so far as known, by a single white man; and this, while every exertion was being made by the military and state officials to discover their whereabouts and arrest them. I have no hesitation in saying that no four white men in the United States could accomplish the same feat under the same circumstances.
