1t is impossible for the present generation
of PREACHERS to appreciate the tolls of their
predecessors in the west and south, The
labor of riding a circuit" was incredible
great. Roads were mere bridiapaths
through the wilderness There wore no
brit ges. When streams were narrow and
shalluw they were fOrIal; when deep and
wide the lonely rider tied his clothes in a
bundle on his head and forced his horse to
swim. Often there was not even n
SEN blance of uroad, and the preacher found
his way by the compass, Or if he had none.

NAVAJO GOLD FIELDS.
Uncle Sans Troops Going in to Keep
Prospectors off the Reservation.

GALLUP, n. NJ, July 27.-The excite
ment following the announcement OF the
discoveries of great ore bodies on the
Naval 10 reservation has increased rather
than abated, and wild rumors pervade the
air and strange whisperings are heard on
all sides. That a band of organized
miners stand prepared to move into the
forbidden territory at the signal of leader
there is no reason to doubt. These
miners have their agents in various towns,
watching the movements OF the military
and trying to find out, if possible, just
what move it intends to make.
1t is learned from reliable military men
visiting this city from Fort Wingate that a
force of regular cavalry, about fifty strong,
commanded by an experienced officer, will
leave that fort within forty-eight hours en-
route to the Navajo Indian reservation to
assist the Indian agent, E. G. Vandever
in preventing unauthorized persons from
prospecting or otherwise trespassing upon
the reservation. Orders have been issued
by the military department commander to
the effect.
1t is understood that a strong body of
regular troops will be permanently posted
On duty OH the Indian reservation during
the next three or four months, or until
the inclemency of the winter season shall
be sufficient to defer the prospectors from
exploring that country.
1t now remains to be seen what, if any,
action will be taken by the strong body OF
miners with headquarters on the San Juan
river, Colo, who have been preparing to
invade the Garlic mountains on the res
ervation.

Republican Prospects in Wyoming.

DENVER, July ga. D. Kelly, Of
Cheyenne, chairman of the state Repub-

city. In conversation he said:
1.-The outlook is for campaign that,
though short, will be lively and interest
ing. The state convention meets August
II, and the election is held one month
later. 1t is impossible to forecast the re-
suit, but an estimate would show ad-
vsntageously to the Republican party. In
1883, when Mr.. Carey was eiected dele
gate to congress for his third term, he
encountered warm fight, but was VIC
torious by majority OF 5000. Now our
population is much larger than then, and
| think the Republican majority will not
be less than it was two years ago. think
it probable that the people will return
Mr.. Carey to the senate.

GER0EIMO'S SQUAW BAPTISED.
The Old Apache Chief ReverentIy Wit
nesses the Ceremony.

MOUNT VERNON, Ala, July 2S.-Geroni-
mos squaw and papoose were baptized at
st. Thomas church here recently. He
brought them himself to the priest for that
purpose, accompanied by one of the In
diaus who speaks very good English to
express his wishes. The squaw was in
structed by the Rev. II. O'Grady, pastor,
for the holy sacrament of baptism, through
the interpreter, and was received into the
Catholic church and is called Maria. The
child's name is Frances, princess OF the
Apaches.
Geronimo was dressed becomingly for the
occasion and painted in the highest colors.
He watched intently every movement of
the priest and seemed to appreciate every
word that was uttered, kneeling during
the ceremony.
Later in the evening the priest admins
tered the last sacrament to dying squaw
that he discovered by accident during his
visit to the camp. Seeing her on her bed
of suffering, wasted and dying of con-
sumption, he spoke to her and showed
her the crucitix. The language she could
not understand, but when she saw the
crucitx she smiled and reached for it,
BY this he knew she was Catholic. J
then drove back and returned prepared }
anoint ber. She seemed rejoiced in her
dying moments, and grasped the crucitix
with firm hold and muttered prayer in
her own language, and the crucitix was
with difficulty taken from her.
The other Indians knelt around the
dying woman with respect and devotion,
and the sacrament was administered be-
meath the sheltered oaks of old Mount
Vernon. She died that night.
This impressed the Indians deeply, and
the next day there were more brought to
the church to be baptized. The babies
were baptized, but the older ones had to
be left over to be instructed for the sacra-
ment until next time.
