ONE ACT FROM Dyv,LD WEST"


Played in Dead En- rnest OLE the X an
Sas Frontier.
A band Of about sixty Arapahoes came
into Caldwell, Kan, early one morning, with
eight or ten wagons, and were soon spread
over the place trading. One of the citizens
lost valuable horse some time ago, and
glancing over the horses the Indians had
with them, he noticed his lost animal. which
was easily identified by his brand and other
marks. Men were willing to swear to the
identity of the horse, which was one of the
leaders in a four-horse team. The Indian
who owned the team was hunted up and
proved to be one of the old ArapahOe chiefs
When the case was explained to him, he at
once entered his protest. He said he had
bought the horse for $50 over two years
ago. The Caldwell man persisted in claim
ing the animal. The debate grew exciting.
and Indians and white men thronged
around the couple. The Caldwell man was
on the point. of forcibly taking the horse
from the team when the Indian suddenly
bounced into the wagon, where his wife
and three children were seated, and gather
ing the reins in his hands, gave a whoop
that started the four horses on a jump
south to the Territory. A dozen more
Indians leaped upon their ponies and dashed
along on the other side of the wagon as a
body-guard. ID
1.-The move was so sudden that the white
men were-taken by surprise. Very few OF
them were armed. while all the Indians had
rifles and revolvers. There was an i'm
mediate rush for arms and horses on ths
part of the whites but the Indians had
good half-mile start before any of the
whites were under way. The owner of the
horse went dashing after the Indians with
rifle and pistols. He was closely followed
by your correspondent, anxious to see the
fun. The two came up to the Indians inst
few yards this side of the Territory. The
Arapahoes were fairly flying for their
haven land. The old chief stood up in
the forepart of his wagon and guided his
four wild horses most deXterously. His
black hair streamed in the air behind. His
blanket had fallen in the bottom of the
wagon, while his sQuaw and paDocSeS
bounded up and down in the wagon-bOX
The owner of the horse drove up alongside
and, presenting his Winchester. ordered
the chief to stop. The only attention the
Indian gave to the order was to hand the
reinS to his squaw, and snatch his rifle from
| the bottom of the wagon. The mounted
Indians covered the white man. and as the
rest of the pursuing party were full half a
mile in the rear, the only thing to save his
life was to pull up short and abandon the
chase. With series of whocpS the Indians
crossed the line. and, once on their side of
the Territory. Slackened their speed and
sent back tauntS TO the whites. who fain
would follow them over.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Of course every
thing about Grant that is to be had here is
found interesting. but the most important
and interesting thing in this line that has
come to the surface in Washington just now
is portrait. The bureau of engraving and
printing has a habit Of making fine steel en-
cravings of all the presidents. These en-
gravings-the plates-are retained and used
upon bank notes, greenbacks and other pro
auctions OF this sort In the large and
Observation-Disclosures room occupied by the
head of the bureau your correspondent OBJ

with portraits of the presidents. A glance
over them showed one face that seemed

near by.

DON CAMERON.

was secretary of war after Belknap.
Cameron did not cut much
of a figure as secretary of war.
In fact he does not make much of an inn
preston upon the average observer in his
present position as senator, place which
will bring out whatever man has in him
if he occupies it las long as Cameron has
been in that service. Yet he is one of the
most observed and asked for of any man in
the senate. He is about the last man in
that body you would pick out for Don Cam
eron. for he does not justify in his appear
ance the name he has as a shrewd politician.
A rather tall, very slender-looking man
with heavy brown mustache, with young
face and boyish manner, he is rather a sur
prise to those who ask for him from the
galleries of the senate. He seldom makes
a speech i'm the senate and is not often
heard of as prominent advocate OF any
political measure. How odd it is that a
man of this sort, with no apparent force OF
character or faculty Of making record. ."
should be the only one OF the
party of twenty-five who were members
