successful Attempt to Escape.

Hangus, the Ca ptured Chief, Makes An Un-
successful Attempt to Escape.
Mangus, an Apache chiefin charge of
detachment OF colored troops on the
way to Florida, attempted to escape
near Pueblo, Col, on the 4th. When
the train was three miles east OF
Pueblo and running forty miles an
hour, Mangus asked PERMISSION to go
into the saloon, which was granted.
As soon as he entered he locked the
door, smashed theglass in the window
and leaped out. The train ran nearly
a mile before it could be stopped.
When it backed up, Mangus was found
lying beside the track, unconscious and
badly cut and bruised, three ribs being
broken. He was taken aboard the
cars, and when he came TO bis
senses be made q desperate fight One
hand had slipped out of the msnacles,
leaving them hanging to the other
hand. He slugged one OF the soldiers
with the iron, knocking him down.
Then he got on the floor and thence
under a seat, struggling with half a
dozen soldiers and bowling. The rest
OF the Apaches set up g. roar, but each
was guarded by negro with a cooked
carblne For a while bed!am pre-
vailed, but Mangus was finally
stretched across two seats, with the
bell-cord wound around him all the
way up his legs and body. The sud
den death, a few days ago, at San
MaTcial, Of the Spanish interpreter
made Mangus sullen, and be took it to
heart greatly. This is supposed to
have caused the fit of desperation
which seized him.
