LITTLE PETER AND THE INDIANS.
The Adventures ola Boy Whom Some
Marauding Commanches Left
to Perish.

Frank M. Collier writes from
Meridian giving his recollection of
an old occurrence, never before
mentioned in print, that reminds
one of the Charlie McComas case.
Several years ago squad Of eight
Indians came into Commanche
County, near Jones Barbee's ranch,
en- Resley's Greek. A negro was
out some half q mile from the
house unhobbling some horses. The
Indians ran upon him ana lanced
him in several places. the negro
said: "Dey kill me for awhile and de
Injuns think 1 was dead for good,
but wasn't. I played 'possum on
'em and dey didn't skulp dis niger
shore" After the Indians left the
negro get up and went to the house
minus the horses, and reported to
MassR Barbee that "his hosses was
gone and niger too. almost" The
Indians, after leaving the negro,
passed on down the valley and,
coming upon john Beene and a ne>
gro, killed both men.
Peter G. johnson and his little
son Peter c., then in his tenth year
had been to Waco to purchase FAM
lily supplies, and were returning
home, and after passing Meridian
Peak, some / 200 yards, the Indians
surrounding the wagon, killed Uncle
Peter end captured little Peter,
rifled the wagon and struck out up
the Bosque Valley. In the mean.
time a scout from Resley's Creek
and the Leon Valley had hurriedIy
taken the trail. On the Clear
Fork OF the Brazos, from
some cause unknown, the In
dams dropped little Peter, TAX
ing his coat, hat and socks, leaving
him with nothing On but his shirt
and pants, fifty or seventysfv
miles from the nearest ranch, in the
month of January, with nothing to
subsist upon and no means Of pro-
curing any, and liable to be de-
voured at any moment by hungry
wolves. He had wandered from the
trail, and the scout in pursuit had
failed to find him, but in this. IS in
many other instances, Providence
apparently protected the helpless.
Little Peter lived five days and
nights without a single bite to eat
save grass roots. On the evening OF
The sixth day he was found by a
company of cow-hunters that Bill
Keith had sent out to make a
roundup. The little fellow had
found the cattle and had remained
with them, thinking perchance he
could procure milk from some of
the COWS, but IN this he failed,
the cows being too wild,
but the cow-hunters found him
in time to revive and save
him. A COD, drizZling norther
was blowing at the time, and the
little fellow would evidently have
frozen to death during the night
that ensued. When brought to
Cora a few days after his being
found, he was the poorest living OBJ
ject imaginable-a mere skeleton.

In the Right Direction.

For some time there has been a
noticeable tendency in the daily press
Of this country TO devote more space
to the publication of reading matter of
all entertaining character. This is
reaction in the right direction from
the craze for the news Of the day"
which for a time converted most of
the leading journals of the country
into mere gazettes of crimes and cas-
ualties.
The success OF the papers which
published supplements filled with
entertaining and instructive reading
matter, has been so phenomenal that
the most case. hardened adherents 10
the old notion that the reading public
only cared for a record of yesterdays
events, are now turning their attention
to the publication of long and short
original stories. This serves to show
the drift of journalism away from the
old standard into the larger field of
entertainment and instruction.-Den-

A Delicate Problem.

A curious observer at Saratoga says
that in store he stood near to a girl
who was examining several pieces of
light pink satin. She had pushed up
the sleeve of her dress somewhat, and
was laying the faprics, one after
another, across the exposed part of her
arm.
This is match now" she remarked
20 her companion; "but it's rather
cool this morning, and Pm afraid it
wouldn't do IN case the weather should
turn hot. l get awfully pink, don't
you knows"
She was selecting material to put
under the lace at he neck of her bod.
ice. and her desire WAS to have it the
exact hue of her complexion. But her
own shade, unlike that of the satin,
varied with the temperature, and so
was raised complication which
puzzled her. She solved the problem
by taking two shades of cloth, thus
preparing herself for the rudeness of a
torrid occasion and the pallor OF a
cool day.
