Trailed to their Death.

From the Tucson (Arizona) Citizen.l
1t has. been the practice, until Gen.
Crook assumed command of this depart
ment, to make treaties and put faith in
the most murderous Apaches, upon
their simple words, and those whose
hands were most deeply dyed in human
gore generally received the most blan-
kets and favors. No wonder that fire.
uuent outbreaks resulted; for the Indian
was shrewd, and he quickly saw that by
becoming the leader of a treacherous
outbreak or horrible massacre he could
not only indulge his natural desire to
murder and rob, but when he chose to
come in he would receive special favor
from the government. Acting upon this
theory, two bad Indians, named Chuntz
and Cochinay, planned and were the
main instruments in the murder of Lieut.,
Almy Pedro became the leader of the
outbreak at San Carlos, and led the
savages who attacked and murdered a
woman, two children and two men at
Old Camp Grant. As soon as General
Crook and his brave troops began to
press them for these crimes, true to their
old strategy, they were willing to come in
and be fed and waited upon. General
Crook had no desire to punish the rank
and file, who had been led astray by
these leaders, but he determined to make
them the instruments by which these
leaders should be brought to justice. He
therefore told the band to which these
leaders belonged that they should have
pardon and peace, but first they must
bring to him Chuntz, Cochinay and Pc
dro. If they could not bring them alive,
their heads would be good evidence that
they were dead and could do no more
harm. For months these Indians have
silently, stealthily and without cessation
followed the trail of these marauders,
while the latter have been day and night
constantly endeavoring to elude their
willy comrades who we're pursuing them,
and from rock to rock, and from one
mountain to another, they have fed
Pedro and Cochinay have been taken.
The latter was pursued from the San
Carlos through the San Pedro and Santa
Catarina mountains, to the Rililto, with
in four miles of Tucson. His pursuers
found on this latter stream where In
dians had come for water, and here they

when they made her captive, and to save
her own life she was induced to show the
way to Cochinay. A fight ensued, in
which Cochinay and three of his com
rades we're killed. The head of Cochinay
was taken to San Carlos, distant about
three dsyss travel. Chuntz is the only
outcast survivor. He is undoubtedly in
the Santa Catarina mountains, not far
from Tucson. But the same stealthy
trailers who brought in the heads Of
Pedro and Cochinay are by day and
night silently but surely drawing the
coils around him. and he cannot escape
much longer. We are told that when
these heads are brought in, Majors Ran
dali and Babcock win call the attention
of the Indians to the fact, and inform
them that such will be the fate Of all
murderers. One substantial example Of
this kind will do more practical good
than all the psalm singing in Christen-
dom, and we rejoice with exceeding
great JOY that permanent peace is fast
dawning.

In the State of Ohio there resides a
family consisting of an old man of the
name of Beaver and his four sons, all of
whom we're hard pets, who had often
laughed to scorn the advice and en-
treaties of a pious, though very eccen-
tric. minister, who resides in the same
town. II happened that one of the boys
was bitten by a rattlesnake, and was
expected to die, when the. minister was
sent for in great haste. On his arrival he
found the youRg man very patient and
anxious to be prayed with. The minis.
ter, calling on the family, knelt down
and prayed in this wise Oh, Lord,
we thank Thee for rattlesnakes. We
thank Thee because a rattlesnake has
bit Jim. We pray Thee to send a rattle
snake to bite John; send one to bite
Bill; send one to bite Sam; and, o,
Lord, send the biggest OF Thy rattle
snakes to bite the old man, for nothing
but rattlesnakes will ever bring the
Beaver family to repentance.
