6 A TERD OF INDIAY WARFARE ’l | | astrons Battle with the Relskins on the Arickarea, QUEER QUESTIONS FOR EUFFALO BILL An Ow huntom Batile Throngh Traglo Darkey Cat Fleot-A Bruve Death, in How the the Mt men fight on the Aric of the Republican rive forty-five men undor ( mel Carpenter were hemmed in onan island and sur- rounded by 700 Sioux and Cheyenne [n- dinns, says the Chicago Hevald, Castor tells all about it I bk, and it has become almost as well kinown as ave the details of the fight on the Littlo Biyg Horn, where that impetuous lewder met his death. Well, Jack in rmember th middle fork y in 18468, when Stillwell was one of livtle bund which looked across the row water into almost certain death. was only a youth of 17 at the time, but he was as good as a man in all the needs of a frontier fight, He was game to the last drop of his blood, a good shot, and as full of the craft of the plainsman as anyone could desire. Tt was not the BWilt rush of attack and the mad delight of vepulsing an encmy. It was a sioge that lusted seven long days and nearly ended with the utter exhaustion and starvation of the whites, They were no organized band of soidie The whole of the little party was made up simply of citizens who had volunteered for the campaign against the Indians: it was as- sisted by the scouts in the employ of the government at times, and at other times in whatever employ they eould find. And it w icered by oné of the best men who ever took up the sword arainst those scourges of the west, the American Indians. that nar- Heo Ward Becohor Ki time when tereibly wounded, lay ied on the ground a little apart from the regular body of the men, in an extempor hospital that would have been saered from the shots of any but a savage foe. Dr. Moore, the dared to take hislife in his hands and bind up Sundy’s wounds. And it was while occupied in this work that he him- self was sorely wounded by the Indians, Lieutenant Beecher, son of Henry Ward Beecher, and one of the men of whom 80 much had been expected in the army, was killed in the fight. Out of the forty-five white men in the battle thirty-five were killed or wounded. Those who had the strength and good fortune to survive spoke for years aftorward of the toothsome qualities of raw horse flesh and laughed at tho deseriptions of their rathor mied quarters, But it was serious v the time. Of course it was only one of a hundred incidents of th kind, but it was one which left its mar! ona good wany homes in the newer Colorado, Jack Stillwell got away one of the impossible things ing through the circling enemy.. But he did it, as did a few others after him. And when he was faivly out of the nest ho elimbed to his feet and struck a bee line for Fort Walluce, oighty miles distant. Tived, emaciated, wasted as he was, he made the trip in twenty-nine howrs and gave the message which brought velief to the im- periled men on the island. He has had o checkered career since then, but all the time he has been one of the fustost friends of Buffalo Bill. He knew and followed the grout scout in those days, and he rememboers him now. He remembers him with a letter, which comes to the master of “Wild West" from the terrvitory. Here is the scout's f"“" at the lighter task of letter writ- ng 0dl. Sandy It scomed “thiat eroop- lines of the oL RENO, L T., Aug. 20.—Hon, W. F. Cody, Chicago. My Doar Bill —It hus been 0 long you have heard from me that you will be surprised to learn that 1 am still on the carth, reached this part of the countr: other day that you had bought out a town called Chicago and had some buf- faloes grazing on the praivies there, A white man told me the other duy that if 1 would get on a railroad train ho would take me to your town, [ am selling off buckskin, trying to get nickels and dimes enongi o pay that white man to take me up there. How will 1 know your camp, ov dees the train stop there )2 you still keep a quarter of buffalo hangding up in front of your camp, or had 1 better bring dried meat en ugh to last me? If the grazing was better be- tween here and there I would rather steal a horse and come that way, Tho Indians don't watch their horses us close as they used to.

But I you'don't doctor it in some way it takes all night to get drunk. 1 have two red flannel shirts. Will that be enough to last me tho trip? The government hasn't issued Indinn annuities yet, so we are a little short on elothes, *Now, Bill, you are posted on matters of civilizution by this time and I wish you would please enswer these questions 80 & t0 kind of post me up, 1 don't want W appear green. If you've got an extra necktie up the please save it for me, as L want to put on lots of style. 1 would profer u red one. In case [ should get roke while up there and you kon't know where [ can get a job whacking bulls for a fow duys, please have some good horses spotted so I can steal them and get home. What is the fine in that country for killing a man or two? Your friend, JACK STILLWELL,"” Of course, the mau is no move likely to steal horses than is Buffalo Bill him sell, And, of course, he is by 1o means the n fellow an eastern” tenderfoot might imagine from reading Lis letter, He is simply a westerner who refuses to recognize old Time, so much so that the two do not bow when they puss by. Among the men who have done noble dusdufn making the hills and valleys of the west safe highways for the white man this one has done a most heroie thing. His skill in eluding hundreds of savago Indians, his strength and dete mination in pushing through to Fort Wallace and getting help—all this won him a name a quarter of u century ago, and there are thousandsin the west who Btill speak the name of Jack Stillwell with reverent love, From Frylng Fan to Five, ‘While our vegiment, the Nineteenth Michigan infuntry, lay at McMinnville, Tenn., writes M. B. Dufiic of Battle Creek, Mich., Juke Stone, who had been a slave in that vicinity, came into camp and wanted to *'jine the Yankees,” After Bome questionings he was duly enlistad and instalied as cook of company K. In the spring of 1864 we broke camp and started accoss the mountains in the direction of Chattanooga, where Sher- man's forces were gathering for the movewent on Atlants.

Runniug a Blockade, The captain had ordered the children, nurse and myself on deck ere starting out, and wrapped about with shects wo reclined or sat on the cotton bales that lined the side of the ship's deck, writes ama Henry-Ferguson in October Lip- | pincott’s, The men were all dressed in white, the smoke stacks were painted white and inverted, giving forth no sound, and cousuming their own smoke. 0 word was spoken on the ship, Thus, without sound, and seemingly without visible motion, she glided through the waters liko a bird on the wing. She wasan illusion to the ma- terial senses—a phantom; we on board secmad spectres, silently but recklessly luughing in the face of death. aster, faster glided the toy ship; neaver, nearer grew the great red light. It seemcd to we we must vun intoit. Isat motion- less heside Captain Reidon o bale of | cotton, watching tne glowing ball of that loomed through the shroud of and realizod that impend- death was on ecither shde, the visible risk of it ahead. Suddenly, and with- | out verbal order from the captain, the | .man at the wheel turned the little crafy with the alertness of hand of the magician and she shot to the left, just | outside the radius made by the bogeon light of the flagship, .and between it and a great lumbering ‘cruiser rolling about in the waters half a mile off. AS we noisclessly ran thus between the very Jjuws of death Captain Reid touched my arm amtpointed cight and left. Follow- ing his divections 1 saw on one sid within the radius, & magaificent man-of- war, its deep-mouthed Ccanuon near the surfuco of the water, its towering masts majestically reaved ugainst the clouds, | its deck swarming with a powerful | maring force, all bathed in red and yellow light that made a minute, di tinctive picture against u dark sou back ground. On the other side, in shadowy outline, luy the dark hulk of, the other, noisily putling her steam, but quiet, liko a mon- ster held in leash against its will; while between the two, with tho nicest kind of calculation, our little craft ran her gauntlet boldly, deliantly. Once well through, Ieould feel the speed being gradually strengthened, until in two hours a fine distunce had been put be- tween her and the Heet, At the end of that vime Captain Reid advised me to go below and get all the rest [ could before duybreak. “Why before daybreak?” 1 “Isn't the danger of bluckad ove Hosmiled grimly. “It is not fairly commenced, What we have done secms something to you, but it is not ditliculy, My ship makes no noise, nor shows her- self at night.

As soon as the Shoshones bad recovered from their sue- prise the warriovs, to the number of about 100, charyed the enemy, which fell back on & quaking ash grove that was near by, la this frst churge Washakie Gray. | then changed to a wail { nium the size of a saucer, killed a Sivnx and while standing witha group of Shoshones over the fallen foe, hiseldost s m, Nan-nang-gai (Snow Bird), rode up late o the batile, Washakie re- proved him for his tardiness, saving “Where have you been so long? 1. an old man, have killed his Sioux, when k squaw, ¢ine up after the Snow Bird felt the reproof and turning his horse towards smy, said: T will make for my- self a great name now die in the tempt.” He char ne and when within a few paces of the grove w the Sionx lay ¢ omesaled he foll, pi by anumber of arrows and bullets, He had no sooner fallen that his body was literally cut to picces in sight of his father Washakie's war whoop was The old chief ked by the Shoshones fought despe y all day to avenge his son, erying and wailing as he fough Towards evening the Sioux retreated, leaving seven of their number dead on the fisld or ed al 1ere reed b at and bearing away with them a number wounde On the Shoshone side five were killed and several soverely wounded. The hattle was over, the sun set, Nan-nang-gai was gone, Washukic's hair turned gray. B PAINLESS D iNTISTRY. Know When the Tooth O but, O, His Other Trounles. ‘Does it hurt very much to have a tooth pulled?” inquired a tall man of a dentist, suys the Brston Horald, That depends,” was the reply. “1¢ the affected tooth happens to be o molar, with the roots at right angles with each other, orif it is docayed S0 as to leave the nevve uncovered, orif it is worn down even with the gums, so that it is necessary to dig the flesh away in order to getagood hold with the forceps, then the chances are that you will kick a little.” Then the tall man trembled from head to foot, and in a shaking voice suid: “What do you think of that one?" ae- companying his words by opening his wouth to its fallest extent and indieating with his finger the seat of his trouble, The doctor took up a small instrument with a little vound looking glass at one end, and, ranning it into the cavern that yawned before him, made a caveful in- spection of the interior, That looks like a stubborn old fel- low,” remarked the doctor, as he re- placed the instrument upon his working tablo. “What would you advise?" timidly in- quived the tall man. “Langhing gas,” replied the doctor. *\Will T be oblivious to the pain?” “Entirely so, The tall wman s Dian't me Out >ttled himselt in the operating chair, and the doctor inserted betweon the patient's teeth an old cham- pagne cork.” Then he placed a funnel- shaped piece of rubber over the tull man's mouth and nose and told him to wthe heavily. Gradually conscious- ness gave way under the influence of the s, but not until the man to be oper- ated upon had sutfered the sensation of being smothered under an old-fashioned icather pillow. That tull man was now in drcamland He first imagined that he was on his way to the World's fair and when the train was on a down grade and going sixty miles an hour the wheels left the track. The air brakes broke. and the cavs rushed along at a terrible speed., It was with the greatest difliculty that the dreamer kept in his berth. mendous jolting was caused by the wheels running ov the ties. The su: pense was something awful; the wreck of the train was inevitable. The car was filled with the shrieks of the terri fied passengers, mingicd with the crash of glassand the rattle of the train. Suddenly there was a deafening report and a tremendous concussion, and the cars appeared to crumble away, The tall man found himselfin total darkness, but suddenly, to his horror, he dis covered a streak of lurid flame through the wreekage, © which told him that he would be roastea alive if imme- diate succor did not reach him. Ho could hear voices directly over him, but do as he would not a sound could he utter. The flames were making rapid progress toward the place where he was confined, and their hot breath was beginning to singe his whiskers, Then came the crash of an axe directly ove his head. The first blow struck him squarely in the back of the neck, and ho felt that his time had surely chme, The next one cut off his left car, and the third opencd up a space in his cra- The fire had now crept up to his feet, and the left one was slowly roasting, when another blow from the axe, greater than all the vest, knocked his head clean from his body. He expeviencod a singular buz- zing in his car; the was a gleam of lizht in the distance, and with a bound he returned to consciousness, The doctor was standing over him, holding a double tooth in his forceps. “That was an old stager, and no mis- tak How he did hang! 1t tookall my strength to dislodge him,” and the doc- tor wiped his dripping forehead with his handkerchief. “Where a m. 19, words of the 1 man. *Why, right hece in my office,” sponded the doctor, **You™ would have Lud a tough time if you hadn't taken the gas.” “Well, if it had been rougler than it actually was I would now bou corpse,” and the tall man paid the $1.50 and went out into the street feeling as if he had been walking in a treadmill for a weels, were the first —_— Novels by the Tou, One of the most interesting things about dime novels and summer litera- ture is the way they are made. Thoere an establishment in New York which s 5,000 novels an hour. They have a machine consisting of two cylinders, on each of which 1+ pages muy beserewed, and as the loug strip of paper goos through first one side is printed and then the other, making it possible to print 288 puges at every revolution, The strip of paper, after being carvied over rollers which drvy the ink, is cut, folded and brought together in the shape of a small volume, with the edges ull trimmed, Every time the great cylin- der goes around .a novel is printed, folded and trimmed, and 5,000 of these ave turned out ey hour, while if it was necessary, 7,000 or 8,000 might be the que The covering does not take long, ll[ly\ being the ave for a minute. The puper costs nearly five times as much as the prinung and mounts as high as 2 cents a novel, The whote cost of the mechanical construe: tion of these books is not more than 3 cents apiece. The luborious part is the writing and reading of them, In 1887 a curious duel was fought in Paris, when two vivals met at the house of their divinity. After a few high words an immediate encounter was de- cided upon, and neither swords 1oy pis- tols being at hand, two ornamental crossbows were taken from the walls of the drawing room. An adjournment mto the garden was made, and in 4 few minutes one of the lovers was pierced in the arm by his opponent's shaft. In 1891 @ still more singular duel was fought, the weapons in this case being umbrel- las. After a furious struggie one of the combatants fell, run through the eye and soon afterward died, COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Rain and a Big Increasé in the Visible Sup- ply Oaused Weakness, OATS WERE HEAVY “AND PROVISIONS DULL Wheat tion At the Opening Was Than Friday's Figures and it Closed at & Fartliér Dooline, a Fraes Loy Tanl Criteaao, Sept, 30, in the visible su Rain and a big incy saused weakness in the ttoday.

The export clear. ances from both coasts, though fair, were disappointing because they fell below the previous week's--being 1,237,000 bu. less than last week. Another weakening factor was the continued liberal receipts in the northwest. The New York bunk statement, though very favorable, did not scem to helv the market. ‘The rain hud a weakening influence, as it was benefical for seeding, The receipts at primary markets for the week were about 100,000 bu. lnrger than a week ago and the exports smaller, and on this basis it is estimated thut the visible supply will show an increase of nbout 1,250,000 to' 1,500,000 bu. on Monday.

Conditions have not chunged materially, and prices have been weil sus- tained on all grades. while on desirable westerns there has been i advance during the woek of 10¢ to 15¢.
