The eating house attachment to the
depot took fire last evening, and in a
moment all the locomotives in the yard
sent out terrible bowls of despair. The
fire companies obsequiously responded to
the call. 1t was a fine night for fire
and the old depot with its culinary de-
partment should have been allowed to
burn if it would.

nothing. She only looked at me once out of
her great sad eyes that nearly all the time
kept looking down. And she did not speak,
in any tongue, when 1 spoke to her. And
she would not come to me when / asked her
to. Nor did she give me her hand when 1
offered her mine. And so she went away.
But 1 thought, after she was gone that
night, she did not dare show any concern or
emotion. 1 thought and thought thou
sand things, indeed. 1 finally offered my
young Indians the two horses for her.
Finally 1 offered to give two herses for even
any information about her.
Let the fact be at once and frankly con-
fesSed that it is doubtful if should have
gone down into the valley OF death after the
massacre but for the memory and the hope
of this beautiful, sad and silent girl.
And this brings us back to the postscript
of the Indians letter on bit of sugapine
bark, which may be translated thus; "As.
for the matter of the beautiful girl whose
fate and sad fortune has quite turned your
tender heart upside down, we can only say
that we have learned nothing at all; and all
our search and inquiry has ended where
we began, in this narrow little circle"
And now let us return to the cold and
cruel page of war, and forget so far as pos
sible the sad face and the great lustrous eyes
that may still be seen after all these years
looking out through nearly any line of
'''The Songs of the Sierras." 1t is best to
try to believe that after all she was wholly
Indifferent to her condition. If one could
only think of her as half savage, as a
Mexican girl, as anything almost but
sensitive, sad and shrinking captive, silent
from the very awe and calamity of her posi-.
tion, from the memory of dead mother in
the grass with babes about her, the father
falling gun in hand, dying to defend herI
Oh, the untold tragedies written in blood on
these forest leaves! Let us hasten away.

CHAPTER V.
THE LOST CAPTIVE

Let us pass hastily over the first three bat
ties by land; or rather massacres. Their
bloody details would sicken you. One
thing may mention. We detected the
hiding place of one vast gathering of women
and children; hiding where they perhaps
had hidden for generations while the men
went to war, by the smell of burning yew
wood. The Indian stronghold was more
than 20 miles above us on the river. One
night as we sat by our guns waiting for
dawn the pleasant smell of burning yew
wood, the sandal wood of old, perhaps,
drifted down the deep. waters of the river
from the camp fires of the Indians This
was followed up; the Indians found; and
butchered.
Do you know that these Indians here
used the yew wood bow of which the Bible
speaks? Singular that the Modoc, the
"yeoman" of Scotland and David's men in
the Bible should alike have used the wood
of the yew tree for their artillery
But let us get forward to the battle in the
water. The melting snow had made the In
dians on the island more than secure up to
this time, for we had no boats. But now
the water had flowed on, and tine low and
fast subsiding condition of the spring freshet
was making the place accessible on horses
On the last day OF April we surrounded and
"stormed" the island on horseback. In
most places the water was too deep, and the
men only lost their arms and their temper
while foundering in the water. But two
places were found where horses could keep
their footing. A second charge was ordered;
the mounted men taking only single pis-
toll this time in hand or on head, so as to be
secure from water, and Mt the same time
many meH firing at long range from out the

next summer, for have plan in my mind
for making Mount Shasta and those stately
pines a national park. I shall ask again
and again, although never SO hopelessly, for
some possible sign or. token of the beautiful
girl.
But here we are quite at the end of the
stipulated 10000 words. Ny contract is
completed. The story of the war in the
wilderness which made up my life for 48
days is done.
As to the causes which led to my joining
my fortunes entirely with the Shasta Indians
at later date I have nrthing to say here.
Much less have 1 anything to say of our
war and battles against the insolent and en-
croaching whites. 1t would do no good to
tell all that now. The Indians are dead or
captive; past all help of mine or yours, you
see. So why tell their wrongs or my boyish
yet brave attempts to remedy them?
Besides that, who is there to witness as,to
the truth of what should say?
The story which 1 have Just given YOU
has many surviving witnesses. It is fact
of the history of the State of California.
and the names of the best men of the State
are witnesses unto it. Let us draw the line
here and not be tempted to go farther.
Only let me say this that there is nothing
at all to conceal or even regret in my life
is most important, let it be borne in mind
that when the new gold fields were found in
the North, and we all Joined in in them to-
gether, these same men, some of whom I
had fought against to the death when with
the Indians, elected me Judge. So YOU see
that these men who knew me we'll in the
days of old found nothing in nv bovhood
history that they could throw against me.
even in the heated fight of politics.
One thing more, don't think all men
ignorant who love the woods. Kit Carson
was persistent reader. He really knew
and knew well, more than most men of
books. He was an earnest man. Be in
earnest; leave off talking about the weather
and all such silly subjects. and see how
much time you may have to think and to
know.
As for myself, the first work did after
leaving the Indians was to procure a certif-
cate and teach school.
Finally, and in farewell to this, let me
give a line or two from General ID. d.
Cotton, the Commander of the Northern
Division of California, and the command
ing officer of our expedition, although not
in the field with u.s. This General Cotton
was a great and a good man in his way and
day. The city of Cotton, in Southern Cali
fornia, is of his building. You will find
his name among those of the great railroad
builders Far back of that you will see his
name among those who bore a part in the
sad duel in which Roderick, of the United
States Senate, was slain. This paragraph
is from his first and only letter to me, and
is dated nearly 15 years after the campaign:
"Ye gods And are you the boy that led
that expedition to such glorious results? 1
had lost sight of you almost Immediately
after it was over. And as you never applied
for your pay supposed you were killed. I
only found out that you are you on reading
the triumphant description Of your Songs Of
the Sierras in London last spring.
That is all. Adieu, kind reader. That
is all of the 48 days.

The Adventure of n Russian Pianist Whk
Wanted TO Go TO Germany
New York SUM-
Arthur Friedheim, the famous piaD st,
wished to cross the western Russian boraef>
recently for the purpose of filling his en-
gagements to play in several German cities.
As Russian subject he was obliged to
go through all sorts of formaIities
with Russian officials before leaving
the country. Two weeks before the date
of his first concert he asked the Cap
tain of the city of st. Petersburg, where he
was stopping, to ask the Governor Of
Livonia to ask the Mayor of Pernau, where
he was born, for the consent of the Pernau
police to the departure of Arthur Friedheim
to Germany. OF course, the Mayor and the
police of Pernau had nothing against Mr..
Friedheim or his concert tour in Germany,
and they said so in letter which they sent
to the Captain of the capital by return Of
mail.
Owing to the wretchedness OF the 1.-Two
nian mail service, this answer was stranded
in fourth-rate postofice few miles from
Pernau and lay there four weeks. At the
end of the second week Mr.. Friedheim had
broken two engagements to give concerts in
Germany. At the end of the third week
he had broken four engagements and was
receiving kilograms by the score from Ger
man theatrical managers whom he had dis
appointed. The fourth week brought tele-
grams and demands for an explanation, but
no letter from Pernau.
Friedheim was in despair, and he resolved
to cross the border without passes. He
tried it, was arrested, and was taken before
the chief Of the district, who sent him to
prison, after eonfscating his papers. In
Friedheim's pocketbock were package of
his visiting cards and several newspaper
criticisms of his playing. The chief con-
cluded that he had caught the murderer of
Arthur Friedman. He had Friedham,
whom he suspected of numbering him
self and confseating his own papers,
doubly ironed and doubly guarded.
After protesting and appealing for a
whole day, Friedheim got an audi
vain the statement that he was Arthur
Fr1edheim. the pianist. The chief wouldn't
believe him. Finally Friedheim begged to
be allowed to prove his identity by playing.
The chief, who was something oil mu-
sician, consented. Friedheim was marched
through the street to the chiefs house be-
tween two soldiers and was Set down before
a piano. He played the second Rhapsodie
OF Liszt As soon as he finished, the chief
removed the guard, saying: "Now l know
Won are Friedheim." The pianist was re-
leased on his promise to return to st. Peters
burg for his passes.
Upon his arrival in the capital Friedheim
found the letter from Pernau and his other
papers ready for him. Four days later he
began playing in Germany, with record Of
seven broken engagements behind him. The
official red tape, OF which he was victim,
so disgusted him with the Government OF
the Gar that he has declared his intention
to give up his Russian citizenship to become
a subject of Emperor William IL

COTTON MILLS MOVING.
MACHINERY or GAMBRlLL'S MILL
GOING TO NORTH CAROLINA.

The Sharp Competition OF the Mills I'm
the South Causing the Cotton spInners
to Move Their Plants Down Beside the
Cotton Fields.
A train Of twenty freight cars, loaded
with the engines, boilers and all the
machinery of Melville Gambrill's cotton
spinning mill at Thirteenth and Lombard
streets, will leave this city to morrow
f,r Reidsville, Rockingham county, N.
G., where it will be put up in the large
new Reidsville Cotton Mills, which are
expected to be ready to start up by Oc-
tober /.
Mr. Gambrill sold the machinery which
is valued at about $40, 600, to the Reids
vile Cotton Mills in January last. The
company was organized some months ago
by local capitalists Of Reidsville and an
offer was made Mr.. Gambrin for the
machinery, which was accepted. Mr.
Gambrill has some stock in the new
| company and Is its president. The mill in
this city was shut down last May, and
now that the new mills at IReids
vile are completed is being moved TO
that place, The Reidsville Mills are one
of the finest in the South and have a
capacity Of G 1000 or z 900 spindles. It Is
probable that plant for the weaving Of
fine ginghBms will be added within the
coming year. In the latter two Boston
capt. alsts are interested.
Redsville is a town Of about 5000
inhabitants situated in the Blue Ridge
section. 1t is on the main line of the
Piedmond Air Line r r. and has direct
connection with the Southern cotton
markets.
Mr. Gambrill will continue to reside in
this city, as he has two other cotton
mills in Cecil county, Md. The mills at
Thirteenth and Lombard streets, are for
sale or lease.
Part Of the machinery of the Patterson
cotton mill at Chester is also being moved
to the South and that in mill between
here and Chester has .been moved. Mr..
Gambrill says that the cotton mills in
this section Of the country cannot com
pete with the Southern mills in
medium and coarse number of yarn
In the finer grades there is a good mar.
gin here. the mills in the South have
the advantage of being near the raw pro
duct, and TINS heBvy expenses Of trans.
portation, drayage, storage, etc,
are saved. Labor is also cheaper in
the South and the hours Of work are
longer Mr. Gambrill considers the
manufacturing industries In the South
in their infancy and believes that the
time is not far distant when all the cot
ton factories will be located near the cot
/ ton fields.
