Lawton, Ok., Feb.—Gerontmo, the Apache Indian chief, who died Wed- nesday on.the Fort Sill reservation, which has been his St. Helena for more than twenty-one years, was the last of the great Indian war chiefs. He had never forgiven the white men, and up to the time of his death he never spoke of the whites as “brothers” except at times when the wily old redskin covered his hatred jbo pray for some favor. He had made many attempts to get permis. sion to go back to Arizona, where he | anid he desired to dle. Eurly in 1908 Geronimo made a trip to Washington with a number of his followers {u an effort so Inter- est President Roosevelt in his case. |The old Indian was unsuccesstul, however, and to the last Geronimo has been full of bitter hatred for the white man, At the time of his death Geronimo was 86 years old. One |daughter, Lola, who lives in Okla- ‘homa, survives the old warrior. Nos until about twenty-seven years ago was there anything of Interest known of the Apaches. The moun- tains and plains of New Mexico and Arizona were their hunting grounds, jand until the white man encroached ‘upon thelr domain nothing was known of their warlike disposition The depredations and cruelttes of marauding bands of warriors of this | tribe have become matters of history and subjects for the vivid imagina- tion of the dime novelist. Geronimo was elected chtet of the renegade Apaches when they settled around the Fort Sill military reser- vation, and he had since held sway undisputed. The members of his tribe number about 200, but every m.aund child sought his advice tn matters of love, war and finance. He lived in a tepee on the hillef{de north of Fort Sill, and to this humble house of state journeyed all of the tribe at different times, seeking light. He charged them tor {t and grew rich, Hetook charge of any tribal mOvey that wight fall to their lot and paid is ous as he wished. He was forforty yesrs on the war path and to the last was a dead shot.

At Fort Sill he drew $35 a month from the government as @ scout, which was equally as great to himas being a chieftain. It was to Captain Henry W. Law- ton, afterward @ general, who was killed in the Philippine campaign, that Geronimo surrendered in the campaign against the Apaches, con- ducted by General Miles. General Miles, an Indian fighter himself, was {ncommand, and he selected Captain Lawton for the task that was set be- fore them, He started with two troops of veterans, taking a trail that at {ts beginning was broad and plainly marked. Then followed the most remarkable pursult {n the his- tory of Indian warfare. Day after day the ceaseless toil continued. The men speedily found themselves in & country where horses | without claws were of worse than no account. Their officer dismounted them. ‘We will walk them down,” Lawton sald. The walk began, Is was white pluck and endurance against lodian craftiness and endur- ance. Week succeeded week. Men drop ped fainting {n the bills and their comrades passed on. There was no time to stay. They were lets to find their way back to the reservation as best they could. Finally, one night just as the sentries were set, there was a faint hall and an Indian stood before them. He was worn to the bone, but dauntless stilll He said his chief would talk to the white man, but would talk to him alone. His camp was some miles further on, but the messenger offered to guide a} soldier to it. Lieutenant Gatewood] volunteered and after a conference with Gerontmo, brought the chlef to Lawton, who recelved his surrender, Is was George Grebach of the Eighth United States infantry, later of Wichita, Kan., who personally took Geronimo and put handcuffs on him at the time of the chiet’s sur render to General Miles. There was a bitter tued between |Grebach and Geronimo, and on sev eral occasions they tried to kill one another, At one time Geronimo caught’ Grebach {n an exposed post- tion away from the camp, and be- sieged him for more than two hours, firing thirty shots in an {neffectual attempt to dispose of the soldier who ata critical moment had fallen by accident into a ravine and was shel- tered by overhanging rocks from di- rect attack. “There was the closest call I ever had on losing my life,’ Grebach satd afterward, “and it also gave me a startling object lesson in the blood- thirsty ways of the master fiend. In 1885, Geronimo and his band were plunderlig and killing settlers in Southern and Central Arizona and in New Mexico, The Apache chief was as well posted on international laws and boundaries as any white diplo- mat. When too closely pressed by the American troops he would re- treat Sacroes the border line into Mexico, knowing that they would not dare to foliow him {nto that country, and when the Greasers plucked up courage and took the warpath against him, he would quietly sneak back into United States territory. “He kept up this sort of tactics for years, killing Americans and Mex {eans alike, and plundering and burning ranches and even whole vil- lages on both sides of the line. His bloody raid on the town of Pima, on the Gila river, {s still fresh in the minds of old settlers. It was in the early dawn of a December day in 1884 that Geronimo and his crowd of warriors crept into the town, and before daylight was fairly on, almost all of the 200 men, women and chil- ren who Hved there were killed and mutilated, thelr valuables stolen, and the buildings burned. Only ten people out of the entire population escaped death. “It was this brutal butchery that spurred the government authorities at Washington to the ordering of a of Dr, Price’s are printed on of tartar.

Why should he? You have taken from us everything. You have made us prisoners of war for more than twenty years. You have taken us from the only country we ean live fn and iuerease. You have made our new born bables and our little children suffer, too, though there fs nothing you can blame them with. The government has made them no allosment of land, though to all other Indfane land has been given. It makes me feel bad fn the heart; I will talk no more.” A Costly Senatorial Primary.

Cook, of Neenah, while his officlal stasements showed that he spent only $28,500, ndmitted that a supplemental statement’ would show thas belated bills would make his ex- penditures more than $40,000, Mr Cook engaged W. C. Cowling, of Oshkosh, as his manager, paying him #210 a month Checks for al- most all expenses were made out to Mr. Cowling. Mr. Cook was asked by the committee if he believed a candidate for senator could spend $100,000 legitimately in asenatorial campaign and replied that twice that amount could be easily spent. Neal Brown, of Wausau, the Demo- cratic nominee, testified to having parted with $1,075 87 in what he termed a “poverty” campaign. He managed his own campaign. William H.
