PERILS OF INDIAN FIGHTING, Remintscences of the Raids of Sit- ting Bull and His Painted ‘Warriors, Boston Globe, “Why do I keep that cartridge.box hung over my desk?! It's a relic of my Iite on the plalns, for around that little box cluster tome of my greatest trials.” The speakor, 8 middle-aged man was seated In his office on Court street. It first bacame mine when I jolned the 22d reglment at Fort Gratlot in July, 1876, about the time brave Custer and his command had gone to slaughter. Troops were hurrled iato the fleld. On the 7th of the month our detachment started for Fort Lincoln, We found the garrison there very small, all troops that could be spared having been eent to the front. We marched to Powder river, where we met Indians in_large numbers, Custer’s command had left a_lot of corn on the right bank of the Yollowstone, and when we came up the redskins were carrying it across to the other bank, It was my first fight, and how narrow was my escape that little holo In the box bears witness. few miles further on wereached the Indian camp, and there found the arms of the slaughtered command. While there I took up a revolver I found in a tent and put it in my inner coat pocket, trasting I might sometime need it. Con- tinuing our merch, under the direction of Buffalo Bill, we made for Glendive creek, and there went into winter quarters. ““The Indians hovered in large num- amine this wonderful store of llterary work. 1 found a Virgll that was certain- ly over 1,600 years old. 1 found & well preserved copy of “Beautiful Snow.” I read it. It was very touching Indeed. Experta sald it was 1,700 years old, which is no doubt correct. I am no judge of the age of manuscript. Some oan look at the teoth of a litersry production and tell within two weeks how old it s, but I oan't You can also fool me on the age of wine, My rale used to be to observe how I felt the next day and to fix that as the age of wine, bat this rule 1 find is not infallible. ~ One time I found myself feeling the next day as though It mizht be 138 yoars old but on investigating we found that the wine was extremely new, havingbeen made in a drug store in Cheyenne the same day. Looking these venerable MSS, over, I notlced that the custom of writing with a vlolet pensil on both sides of the large foolacap sheet and then foldiog it in six- teen directions and carrying it around i the pocket for two or three centuries is not a late Amerfcan Invention, ss I have been led to suppose.

The A MAN FOR THE OCOASION, A Nevada Preacher Who Wanted No Foollshiness in His Church, An exchange thus libels the good peo- ple of Mason Valley: If it had not been for the cool and very thoughtful judg- ment of the resident clerggyman at Mason Valley, last Sunday, that community to- day would be in disgrace and without the holy Inflaences of the Gospel. On that occasion the man of God proved himself cqual to the emergency. The place of meeting was comfortably filled, the min. istor had read the psalm beglnning, *The Lord is my shepard, 1 shall not went,” had given the text, ‘‘For the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but min- Ister, and give his life a ransom for many.” “A collectlon will now be taken for promotion of missionary work in Van Dleman’s land,” he remarked, and took a seat to await results and contemplate his sermon. The deacon reached the lower end of the room and came to a rancher with & red beard, long hair and a ecar on his cheek. He dropped a 820-pleco in tho hat, but It had scarcely pasied out of his hand before he reccollected that the yoars's taxes had not been paid, and reached over to take back some change The deacon objected, and in the scufils gulde snid that was impossible, for smok- ing tobacco was not introduced into Italy until a comparatively late day. That's all right, however. You can’t fool me much on the odor of smoking tobacco. The churches of Verona are numerot and although they seem to be a little diff- erent from our own in many ways, they qhe hat was overturned and the coin eoat- tored on the floor. The congregation made a rush for the money, andundoubt- edly there would have been a free fight had not the minister jumpad ints the pulpit, and loveling & six-shooter yelled in a terrific tone: *‘Order! The first one that moves is a corpse! What kind bers about the camp. It was the univer- ral belief among the troops that going out of camp on scouting duty meant death. It was by no means pleasant news to me to be detalled to carry the mail between Glendive and Fort Buford, soventy-five miles away. I was accom- panied by a half-breed scout. The trip was made successfully. After we re- turned to camp I was sent with a detach- ment of scouts to the headquarters at Glendive creek. “Three days after we arrived Indians surrounded us. Among the hills werte hundrods of savages in fierce war paint. The commanding officers met In council, and about midnight I was ordered to re- port. The colonel said: ‘I want you to take this dispatch to Fort Buford, Travel as fast as you can, and deliver this In person to Col. Hazen; our ammunition and provlsions are glving out.’ I started. The night was clesr and still. The guard let me out through the picket line, and, leading my horse. I stole off into the darkness, revolver in hand. *‘Istarted my horss on a slow trot and rode at that speed for about twenty miles until I rode directly into the Indian camp. The dogs announced my arrival, and in & moment mera the lndians were in hot purault; but my horss was one to be relied upon, and I soon left the most of my pursuers far behind, There were two young bucks, however, who kept closo” after my trail for hours. My horse was becoming winded and I determined to fight. Draw- fng my carbine 1 fired one shot, killing one of ray pursuers’ horses, and I immediately followed it with another, which had some effect, as the Indian gave up the chase. At 10 o'clock the next day I was in Fort Buford, and two hours later a largs body of cavalry, with a wagon traln, started for the besieged camp. When I started to return the train was about twenty miles ahead of me, The wagon traln missed the t/ght 1 was unable to find the command, vy, | aud after hunting for several hoursin the vy oase unde R N o Hpay 386 S ek Bivecs, Cinneni Tt i Royal Havana Lottery !

My horse was in bad conditlon, and I conciuded I would camp for an hour and make a little coffes. 1t was now dark, Packeting my horse, I kindled a fire, and throwing aside all my arms and taking off my belt I determined at all hazards to take a rest. 1 was taking myself comfortable when 11 heard what seemed to be the bark cf a prairie wolf, I knew what it meant. ‘Thera were Indians about, and ths bark was simply a slgnal. It was repeated, and then I notjced two dusky forms steal- ing along the ground, My loaded rifle was within! resch, and, picking it up, I took a quick aim and fired. A cry of pain followed, and without walting to heed ehouts of rage 1 ran for my horse, and mounting I started a break-neck speed, not for the fort, as I should have done, butin ths opposite direction, I found that my arms were gone but one. I atill had the revolver I had picked up In the camp where we had found the arms of Custer’s men, I rode all that night, and cn the fol- night ran succesefally into Camp Glen- dive, without any trouble save a personal nter with one Indian near the pick- ot line.

Most everyone has heard of “the “Two Gentlemen of Verona,” This s the place they came from., They have never returned. Verona s not noted for ita gentlemen now. Perhaps that 1s the reason I was rezarded as such a curosity when I came here. Verona ls a good dea) older that Chl- cago, bat the two cites have points of re- ssmblance after all. When the southern simoon from the stock-yards, is wafted across the vinegar orchards of Chloago, and a load of Mormon emigrants get out at the Rock Island depot and begin to wove around and lquflm and emit the fragrance of crushed Limberger cheese, it reminds one of Verona. The sky is eimllar, too, At night when it s ralning hard, the sky of Chlcago and Verona s not dissimilar, Chicago 1s the largest place, however and my sympa- thies are with her, Verona bas about Ide from myeelf, census Inc'udes for- elgners and ladtans not taxed, Verona has sk ancient skating rink, known In history ss the amphitheater, It is 401} feet by 516 in size, and the wall isstill’'one hundred feet high in places. The people of Verons wanted me to lec- ture there, but I refrained, | was afrald that some late comers might elbow thelr way In and lesve ons end of the amphi theater open and then thers would be a craft, 1 will speak more fully on the subject of amphitheater in another letter. There len't room in this one. Verona |s noted for the Capitular libea- ry as it is called. This iseaid to be the larzest coliection of rnjcmd manuscript in the world. I stocd in with the libra risn and he gave me an oppertunity 10 ex resem ble ounra in others. One thing pleased me, about the churches of Verona was the total absence of the church fair and festival as conducted In America, Salvation seems to be handed out in Ver- ona withont loe-cream and cake, and the odor of sanctity and stewed oysters do not go Inevitably band In hand. I have al- ready been in the placa more than two days and I have not yet been invited to help lift the old debt on the cathedral. Perhaps they think I am not wealthy, in fact, thera is nothing in my dress and manner that would betray my wealth, I have been in Europe now six weeks and have kept my secret well. Even my most intimate travellng companions do not know that I am the Laramia Clty post- master in disguise. The cathedral is a most imposing and massive pile. I quote this from the guide book. This beautiful structura contalns a baptismal font ‘cut out of one eolid block of stone and made for immersion, with an Inslde dlameter of ten feet. A man nlne feet high could bsptised there without fnjury. The Venetians have a great respect for watoer. They believe it ought not to be usad for anything else but to was away slne, and even then they are very economical about it. There is a nice picture here by Titian. It looks as though 1t had been left in the smoke house nine hundred yeara and overlooked, Titian palnted a great deal. You find his works here ever and anon. He must have had all he could doin Italy in an early day when the country was new. I like his pictares first-rate, but I haven't found one yet that I could secaro at anything llke bed-rock price.

Oh! how deliciously appetizing they looked to the boys who had not tasted any fresh meat for a long time. It was quite natural that they should ecok some device by which they might obtaln one. So Jerry spoke up snd says, ‘“Jake, how can we manage to got one of those into campi” Says Jake, '‘How many hardtacks have ou?” Ten or twelve,” answera Jerry. “Givo me some,” says Jake, “and I will cosx them wup into bayonetting distance when you bayonet one.” Jerry having furnished the; hard- tack, Jake broke them up into small bits and threw them out, coaxiog the shoats toward them. It took a good deal cf maneuverlng o got the hogs anywhere near them, but finally one, a little tamer than the others, craxled up to the desired place, and Jerry, true to his daty, made a lunge, striking it between the cyes. The bayonet glanced and buried iteelf in the animal's neck, decp enough only to sst his porkehlp squealing, which It did with a vepgesance and eot the wholedrova to gruating. That brought the boys to realize thelr perilous position, which for the moment they had forgotten, Jack jumped back behind the tres and resumed a picket's position, to be ready for an emergency.

A log was procured for him to stt upon; upon sitting he said: _‘Boys, this is the nearest call I ever had.” The staff officers came out of the woods and advanced to the post. The general, with his staff, had been out inspecting the picket line, and had got beyond it by mistake, snd when the general turned from the pickets he was looking in that diraction for the post. But for the fact that the trlggers pulled bard, Gen.
