It was at just such a moment that a report for the Buffalo Ixpress happened int his office the other afternocn, The talk was upon one subject and an- other until it drifted into the discussion of long-distance rides, when the captain broke in with the following personal ex pericnce: “In the fall of ‘68" said threw the half finished cigar lighted his corncob p S owas a ond licutenant in troop A of the Seventh cavalry. W had been ordered into western Kansas together with battery 13 of the Fourth artillery and the Thirty- eeventh infantry,to drive the Cheyennes Comanches and” Arapahce Indians back to their reservations.

As they are hard to shauke off as a newspaper reporter, the general was hbliged. to accede. They vanted a week to get all their young men together and they wanted heaven knows what besides, but they got one day of grace and then they were to move. “We l sentries f cne imagined 1 them encircled by a line of ym the Thirty-seventh, and no that they would try to break away. They did, though, und when the reveille sounded the next morning there wasn't un Indian to b scen oxcepting a few old men and squa “Of course, that meant work for the eventh, and away we went after them, Custer riding ahead, dressed in a buck- #kin hunting suit, his long yellow locks flowing in the wind, and looking as he must have looked that day when he rode to his death on the Big Horn, He was a gallant officer, and there wasn't a man in the Seventh who wouldn't have died for him. “For three days we chased them to- ward the Platte river, and, although we ran into many small bands we did not come upto the main body until the afternoon of the fourth day. About noon our scouts told us that several thousand Indians were a few miles away and as Custer could not attack them without orders it was necessary for some one to go back to Hancock for in- struetions, “We had been informed by couriers that the general was at Fort Larned, 180 miles from our camp and the, interven- ing country was filled with roving bands of hostile redskins. No one scemed willing to make the attempt, for it was almost a dead certainty of death or even worse than that. ‘At last Custer, with his us im- petuosity, declared that he would make the trip himself. A young surgeon, whose name [ caunot recall, as he did not belong to our regiment, a private and the fiest sergeant of troop H and myself were his only companions. We left camp at a little after 2 o'clock, and, I tell you, I thought I had scen the last of the dear old Seventh. “We were well mounted, course, as Custer was our leader and guide, we rode fast. All the afternoon we went at a pace that scemed to knock one's very teeth out and made his body feel as if he had been through a rolling machine. Not a living thing had we seen since leaving camp, but that did not reassure us any, for it was no telling how wany of those devils had seen us. A Ride for Life. and, of YAt 8 o'clock, just as the stars began to burn brightly over our heads, we halted on the banks of a small creek and took the saddles off our tired animals Without a word the whole party, ex- cepting the sergeant and his man, threw themselves upon the grass, and, with one hand holding on to the bridles of the horses, went sound to sleep. “Perhaps I had been asleep half an hour-—-it wasn't longer than that, any- how—when I was brought w my fect by the report of a carbine near at hand. Before I could get on to my horse the whole praivie was alive with horsemen, who began pouring a regular volley into our bivouse. Urging my horse through the bushes on the bank, 1 forded the creek and struck out toward Larned as a8 fast as horseflesh could carry me. The yells and howls behind me told only too oll what I had escaped, and | had be- gun to congratulate myself upon being alive when I heard the'sounds of vapidly approaching horsemen, It was too dark to see¢ how many of the devils I had to fight, and so I spurred on my horse and got my revolvers ready for business. “Nearer and nearer came the thud, thud of pursuing hoofs, realized that I would have to ma fight for it, anyway. I could now hear the panting of the horses, and, turning inmy saddle, I determined to try one thot for Juck, Before I could get my revolver from its holster, Custer's well known voice sang out with: *They've fixed the surgeon and the rest, I'm afraid, and will be after us in & moment, We'd better keep on o the fort,’ and he dashed up to my side, followed by two riderless steeds. “For about an hour we kept up the killing puce we were going, and then, hearing no sounds ot pursuit, we eased down a bit and rode on in silence. To make a long story shovt, w paused under the gates of Fort Larned at b o'clock the next morning, having ridden 180 miles in sixtcen hours with only one hour's rest. This ride is the longest and quickest [ have ever heard of, and is known in the west as one of the narrowest General Custer ever had.' )08 A Brash with Geronimo, “A year or two before this ride,” tinned the captain, I was s with my regiment in Arvizona, where [ saw some pretty lively times: and perhaps you'd like to hear a yarn or two about them. “There was a mail route in the south- orn part of Arizona that was known throughout all of that country as one of the toug in the west. It was 115 miles long from Tueson to Camp Bowie and the trail, even under the most favor able conditions, was not one that a mun wonld go ove ten for fun, Devens, who commanded the had tried in ever way Camp Bowie conneeted the the world, A s ant nd ten men were detailed to carvy this mail, but on trip some of them were wiped out by the Apaches. “Disgustec res and loss con- to keep rest of yossible with last with the many fail- of lifo, the general very wisely came to the c¢omclusion that it would be safer to have that mail carvied by one man. The mts who were al- iging about Tueson laughed at a of one man making this t and not even the reward of $500 a nth would tempt any of them to take risk. Hearing of the offer, and car more for the reputation it would me than [ did for the money, I said v to get the mail through, 1 had the of all the rimals in the Guartern s corrals, and from these I chose six of the best mules I could find I took mules, for the trail was a rough one, the most of it through the White Sulphur mountains, and these animals are sure-footed and swift. A round trip once a week was the extent of my labor, and as | made these in the night time with only one change of mules half way between the two places it was about all I could do. And [ may state right that I was never more than twelve hours making the run, and once or twice went through in even less time than that. “You've all heard of the rumpus that half-breed Apache, Geronimo by name, has been kicking up in Avizona? Well, I had a little exp with e id alone, m the i giv [ would here ence be repeated, either. “One night while on one of my trips, as [ was passing through a lon where the willows grew ve mdantly, my mule suddenly stopped stock still Sliding quickly to the ground I unslung my carbine and waited for developments. After a few seconds of silence, during which my heart was beating like a trip- hammer, a voice called out in Spanish RN ‘Put’up that g ve kot you this time.’ ‘Knowing that resistance would be 1seless, T dropped the stock of my car- bine to the ground and ther instructions. A rustling in the underbrush about me, the snapping of a fow twigs, aud [ found myself com- said the voice, W pletely surrounded by about 200 painted | Apaches, 'Geronimo, for it was he who had ad- dressed me, appropriated my whis! flask and after convineing himself tha he had drunk the last dvop, he said: “*We've got you this time, Skee “Give me your money and your am- munition,’ he replied, his eyes twinkiing with greed: and [ handed it over to him without a word. “After he had opened every letter in my mailbag he told me to get on my mule and git,' and [ word and ot out of that locality a fast as wy mule would carry me. | have never been able to did not shoot me, as he could have done so without my ever knowing who pulled the trigger. The only way I can aceon for his forbearance was t his hiding place would if T failed to appear on time Out of the Jaws of Death, be discove “On one of my last trips.” the captain went on, I was accompanied by a young fellow named Jim Wright, who had just resigned a lieutenant’s commission in the army. He was a nice, gentlemanly youn, fellow, the only son of & Seoteli noble man. Having had some trouble one of the universities in Glasgow, the old I had disowned him, and the boy, crossing the Atlantie, 1 enlisted in the union army. — After the war, he ob- tained a commission in the regulur army and was sent to Avizona, where he served for several ye Meanwhile his father, 1 ning of his whereabou had come to this country and induccd him to vesign and join himin New York S0 Wright was on his way to civili- zation with me, ana as we rode along in the beantiful starlight night, smoking and talking, he told me all about his home in Scotland, which he had not seen for 3 We were both in the best of spi and had not one thought of dar About half way up the trail stood I tree, called the lone tr Jim to get off and tighten up his saddle girths, “*“What's that for? said Jim, as he proceeded to do as [ had divected, *“*We may run into some redskins down yonder,' said I, ‘and if we do we'll have to run for it.' ‘Redskins,' laughed he, as we swung back into our saddles, ‘why it wasn't ten minutes ago you told me you had made a dozen trips without secing a sign of one.' ‘But that's no reason shouldn’t be careful,’ [ rode on, thinkiv no! it. why we replied, and we 1ing more about A little while obliged to ford a f had this we creek where a few woeeks before | had a little brush with a few Apaches, As we neared this ford my wule began to act in a peculiar after were | way | both of nis legs had t | motion him one | night, and ['mnot anxious that it should | listened for fur- | took him at his | understand why he | and when we got to it I told | | office sce | applict manner and 1 suspeeted that something | Was Wrong.

SR HE KISSED PATTIL a ovurnor Crittenden of Missouri and the Great Prima Doana, A coupleof weeks ago there transpired in the eity of Washington, D.

We don't see how he achieved this thing, and can only sur- mise and wonde Mr. Crittenden’s fame rests upon events. Following one of the spirited gubernatovial — contes known in the sta he clected by the largest dem majority ever cast in Missouri. He assumed office at the time when the James gang terrvorized the state. Not a railroad whose direotors slopt casily. In- offensive men were shot down like dogs because they were, unfortunately, stand- ing behind ‘a cashicr's desk, and this in the broad gl of the noonday, and capitalists looked over and beyond the great praivies and vich ore harboving mountains; and ¢ommerce slacked, and credit waned; and a great state guished bocause terror-stricken, cowered hopelessly under the daving, invincible reign of the gang of outlaws and des- peradoes known as the Jumes boys. Crit- tenden grasped the situation. With an ingenious mind and ivon will he set in and sustained to the finish the train of events that led to the final ex- termination of the band. Not only this feat, but the manner in which it was ac- complished, made the namo of Critten- den familiar. The history of Missouri can not be written and that name left out, nor the ethies of morals discussed and fail of finding pertinent material in o, Now read thi ars ago when Senators Cockrell and Vest approached President Cleveland concerning the ap- pointment of Minis to Mexico and submitted Crittenden’s name, the gen- tleman in the chaiv deew himself up in emphatic manner exclaimed: possible, gentlemen, impossi for a moment ¢ould [ enter Being pressed, he gave this ~ peremptory dealing governor's recent counection Jan matter.
