He told them what his instructions were and that they would have to give up all the horses they had stolen, Thl‘g laughed at him and at the ideaof a *boy,” as they called him, making such a demand of them. 4YWhy,” they said, ‘we can kill you all in five minutes.” Well, he couldn’t help that, he said; they must surrender the stock. Continuing to ridicule the idea and becoming somewhat demonstrative the colonel sud- denly raised his sword, which was the signal agreed u{mn beforehand, that his men should lovel their guns at them. Quick as a tlash the Indians were covered. ‘Now, sir,” said the colonel to the chief, “I have you in my power, Tell your men to keep back and agree to give up the stolen horses, If you do not every oneof you shall die.” The Indians said they could not give back the horses right away, because they had divided them up among themselyes and the possessors were scatttered through five villages. It would require three or four days to gather them. ‘‘Never mind,” said the colonel, I will give you time. Will you give them' up and allol my company to go undisturbed among your people and collect them?” *Yes," they would. ““But,” said the colonel, “Tdemand further of you that vou and three of your men be surrendered to me as hostages and as a Eunrnuty that you will do what you say." 'his was a stunner to them, but after as- surances from the colonel that they would not be harmed, they gave themselves up, in- structed their fellows to return to the vil- lage and not to molest the soldiers while they made the rounds and gatbered up the stock. It is sufficient to say that the plan was carried out perfectly, When the com- pany was ready to depart an oath and a pledge of friendship was exacted from the chief and his fellow captives, to the effect that they nor none of their men should pur- sue orin any way molest the soldiers on their return journey. They willingly took the oath and were released from captivity. This pleased the chief very much, for he had expected that the colonel would not re- lease him until the soldiers had reached a point of safety. The company then departed, and upon their whole jouuney of 500 miles to Fort Union were not once molested, Fifty- five days time was consumed in recovering the plunder and the success of the expedi- tion was due principally to Colonel Shoup's cool and determined bearing, and to his kind treatment, not only of those whom he held as hostages, but of all others of the tribe, He attributes his success to a streak of luck which lay in the fact of his having captured the very head man of the tribe; but be that as it may, his achievement was extraordin- m:dv and resulted w his promotion as an oficer, Captured Confederate Recruits, Another exploit of his was the capture of number of persons who were moving south to join the confederacy. One day one of his scouts came into camp and reported news of a body of men moying southward, The col- onel, feeling satistied that they were seeking to join the confederates, resolved to capture them, Taking sixteen men with him he fol- lowed tifem several days. Finally taking a short cut across the country, he headed them off, 4s he thought, and concluded to wait quietly near the roadsiue and see if they would not appear. His men had scarcely fone into camp when a lookout, whom he iad stationed on a high point near by, re- ported a party in sight, Feeling satisfied thoy were the men whom he was after ho immediately set about to plan their capture, One thing bothered him, however, He did not know how many were in the party, but Was quite sure their number exceeded hls. About this time an event happened which scomed to endanger his men. He saw two or three Indians about. There were doubt- less many more near by. He must first make friends with them, else he would have trou- ble. Hailing onc of them, he saw before him, aud much 1o his surprise, one of the very bucks whom he had subdued on the Cimar- ron. Telling him that he was just the man whom he wanted to see and that he had come down expressly to tell the chief that Lie had some fine gl‘elellll for him up where the remainder of his company was stationed he finally proposed that the Indian should 80 the next morning at daylight into the camp of the confederates, who were then reported as puiting up 1or the night ata point three miles away, and find out all he vould about them, Having been offered some blaukets and other trinkets he agreed Lo the Pproposition and retired.

At daylight the next morning, stationing his men in this place of ambush, and supposing his arrangement with the In- dian was working nicely, he awaited news from the camp and the advance of the con- feaerates. Imagine his surprise, however, when, upon looking up the hillside back of him, he saw a swarm of Indians dodging hither and thither behind the rocks, and among them the vory Indian whom he sup- posed to be in the confederates’ camp. This was indeed an unexpected state of affairs. Caliing him down, obtaining an explanation and giving renewed assurances of good faith, he finally prevailed upon him to visit the camp. The Indian started and finally re- turned, waving a paperabove his head, This paper proved to be a statement from the leader of the party, giving his number as twenty-threo men and one woman, and tell- ing the chiet, whom the Indians said could read “heap English,” that they desired to be friendly with him and hoped to be allowed to pass through his country undisturbed. The indian also reported that the party was breaking camp when ho loft and were prob- ably then upon the way. readiness in case fight. they were a thousand this time not be: They began now ents just then. Story of the Capture. Surprised a little at the number of -the the confederates, ho resolyed, neyertheless, to effect their capture. Inspecting every gun and giving his men explicit instructions, he turned his attention to the Indians. What should he do with them? They insisted upon aiding in the capture and proposed to secrete themselves right where his men weroe stationed. Kunowing this would not do, he finally prevailed upon them to takea stand in a gulch just below him and to as- sist only in case ho didn’t succeed. Taking the place assigned them, a perfect stillness sottled over the scene, and it was supposed by the colonel that nothing further would occur until the capture was made. But he was again disappointed. Of a sudden he heard the most unearthly yells coming from the direction of the Indians, and, running to the top of the ridge, he saw every last one of them stripped to the breachclout and en- gaged in a genuine war dance. He called to them and told them that would uever do. that the approaching party might hear them, turn aside from the road and escape, He finally succeedec in quieting them and returned to his men, Preseutly the confederates came view. They proceeded only a short distance, however, when they halted and were ordered by the captain to inspect their firearms and have them in readiness for an attack. This the colonel could not understand. Looking in the direction of the Indians again, how- ever, he found an explanation. There he saw 8 number of them peering from behind rocks on the top of the ridge, evidently in lilnlu view of the approaching confederates. Cheir curiosity had got the ficner of them and they had determined to witness the cap- ture, He ran toward them and motioned them back. They finally got out of sight and the confederates, after debating the situation a few moments, concluded to ad- vance again, KForward, in perfect form they moved, well prepared to resist an attack. It became a (wl'stitm then as to which side could act the most quickly. Stationing him. self so near the roadside that w]lfi one bound he could reach the leader's horse and crowding his men in closely behind him, he awaited, almost breathlessly their coming, In a moment morethe head of the leader's horse had reached the troops and was not ten feet away., Out the colonel leaped and with one bound had the horse by the bridle and a six-shooter leveled at the rider's head. At his back stood his faithful wmen, their rifies leveled upon the riders beyond. ‘‘Surrender and drop your guns,” shouted the colonel. Al acquiesced save one, *‘Drop that gun,” "echoed one of the sol- diers, *or I'll blow your head off.” The {un was dro])&)od, and the men disarmed and placed under guard, The Indians began to flock around and immediately demanded a good share of the plunder and two of the confederates, their intention being to burn them at the stake or in some other way tor- ture them for some fancied wrong., After remonstratiog with them for some time, the colonel put them off with the understandi that they should go sand bring thein chie! 5 follow him to his camp several ays distant, and get the presents there awailing them.

The men were in possession of the gov- ernment and he must account for them to it. The presents, be sald, were worth much more to them and they would think so as soon as they saw them, in convincing him that what he true, the chief wanted to know what assur- ance hecould give that the presehts were ‘“‘Send your men ahead and let them see If they are not there, as I say, let them come back and I will give you what you demand,” was the colonel’s re- ply. ‘The chief finally consented, providing, however, the colonel would deliver him three of his soldiers as a pledge of good faith, The colonel turned to his men and said he had the utmost faith in the Indians and that it any three of them would volunteer to go, they J)robnbly would be treated well. He not compel anyone, however, is willing to do this?" asked he, and every Selectin, the lot, he delivered them to the Indians, The Indians then insisted that they be al- lowed to come in camp and mingle with the men, This request the colonel told him he could not grant, because it would do no good and might cause his men to feel uneasy, He flually agreed with them, however, that the squaws could visit the soldiers for the pur- pose of selling trinkets. ‘The Indians finally went into camp near by and a sleepless night was passed, half the colonel's men being kept on guard until day- light, Morning finally dawned and the jour- ney was resumed.

There was but little chance to overcome them unless they could be dislodged, So he concluded to station all but one of his men at the crest of the hill and to take a position himself, with one man, down the hill from them and behind a big rock and wait for their surrender and if they refused he would fire into the camp with his repeaters as rapidly as possible and make them believe there Yehind the where he stood, hoping that they would then fly to the top of the Lill where ‘When daylight appeared and the outlaws had begun to stir in _ their camp, the colonel climbed to the top of the rock and demanded Pop went a rifle and a Jumping to the ground he and his comrade began to pour shot into the camp av a furious rate and it The desperadoes scampered up the hill and the colonel and and aided In the capture.

Thus he rode all might long and when morning dawned the footprints of the horses ahead were getting very plain, and the colonel felt satisfied he was gaining upon the outlaws, was very nearly upon them and being very familiar with the country, he resolved to cut across a ridze to savea detour of sevel miles, hoyins he might in this way head them off, down the other slope and into the road again he found the riders had not Satisfled they would soon appear, he rode leisurely along, keeping a sharp lookout be- hind, and presently the horsemen rode in tovk him. and as thoy rode into the stream the colonel engaged them in couversation, This was his opportunity.
