40 Instance Of what an Apache LODI.
an will do in the way Of cool darinn.
when the prize ia worth tho risk, one
occurred in a ranch in Arizona. Tn
owner of the ranch was an American.
10 guard against the Apaches be had
built q block house, and, adjoining il 4
court yard aud a corral, surrounded by
an adobe wall eight feet high and Two
feet thick. In'thc corral the herd were
nightly secured, He had a contract 10
guard and feed 400 head Of bee. oattls
belonging TO the United States fort. some
thirty miles away More than one at.
tempt had been made by the Apacbes 10
capture the herd, while feeding two or
three miles from the block house. But
the vieilant herdsmen had run the cattle
on q gallup iato the corral before the
Indians could stampede" them. One
night there came a fearful storm. A
solitary Apache. nnarmed, and with
nothing but q blanket TO protect him
from the cold rain, climbed over the
corral wall; erouching IL the corner.
waited for day.
Early in the morning, the storm hav.
ing passed away, eight berdsmen, all
armed, waited at the corral gate fos the
herd to be turned out. The gate was
opened. They poured out. Suddenly
mp sprang the Apache; vaulting on the
nearest horse he clutched his name with
one hand, while with the other he waved
his red blanket and yelled like a demon.
In an instant every hoof made a rush
and the stampede began. The horses.
frightened dattsd into the midst Of the
flying cattle. As in a frenzy they went
through the gateway, the Apache cIasped
his arms around the horses neck. and
throwing his body on one side of the
maddened animal, disappeared from
view. A Thousand men ranged in col.
umn could not stop that rush Of the
crazed herd down the valley. The herds.
men fred a volley which wounded and
killed some Of the cattle. Two bands of
Apsches, darting out from opposite sides
Of the valley, closed up from behind the
herd. -Four hundred head Of cattle
were thus captured and run of by the
daring Of one Apache.
