return TO the post. The return march,
though wearisome, was over an open coun-
try, but we had hardly reached the post
before a scouting party made raid upon
the settlers and the still weary troops were
ordered In pursuit. 1t was during this
scout that Lieutenant J. Hansell French,
of Philadelphia, was killed. A skirmish
took place In the afternoon and lasted un-
til after nightfall. As night came on and
the Indians were disappearing from the
front, the officers and men gradually with
drew from the skirmish line to a
ravine in rear where the cooks were
preparing supper. Captain Purington
and Lieutenant French remained with
a few men on the skir1nish line. Lieu
tenant French, thinking the skirmish was
over started to camp and called out:
Hello, where is camp?" A voice ans
wered: This way He proceeded in
the direction of the voice. he was shot and
instantly killed. Three shots were then
fred at Captain Purington. but without
effect. A few days after the troops had a
running fight with the hostiles and cap
tured an Indian whose leg had been broken
by bullet As Cap. burlington approached
him he said: Hello. | thought you were
dead; ! know | killed French The
indian had grown up around the post and
knew all the officers. He was called
Charlie and spoke English well. Charlie
was placed in a house In the middle of
camp that night where it would seem that
escape would be impossible, but the hos
tiles slipped into camp, found him In the
house and carried him safely away. He
was subsequently killed in battle.
About this time Victoria was killed. He
had sent off all the active men to raid and
remained with the women and children
stronghold. He was, however, surprised
and himself an6 the greater part of those
with him killed. He had fought
many campaigns and killed many people.
A young Mexican, with spark of genius,
painted an oil painting of the battle In
which he met his death. The picture
met with some applause. The same artist
also painted picture of the Crucifxion.
The picture was very fine, except for the
slight incongruity of representing the
Roman soldiers armed with Winchester
rifles and wearing sombreros.
After Victories death the Apaches,
whose chief he had been. surrendered and
were taken TO San carlos IN Arizona.
They remained there but short time and
then broke out in conjunction with their
friends, the Chiricahuas Cherry cou-ahs)
Their outbreak was not successful for the
United States troops killed great many
of them in battle, and as they were fee
ing they fell into an ambush of Mexican
troops and many more were killed. When
Geronimo surrendered in 1886 The survivors
surrendered with him and share his cap
tivity. Their old home is now a cattle
ranch belonging to an English company
and the warm spring, or ojo calient, from
which they take their name, has been de-
stroyed by an effort to increase the flow Of
water. JOHN A. GLASS. First Lieuten.

A FINE JELLY.
Dainty Housekeeping.


Not only does the French woman buy
the materials for her dinner, but helps to
cook it when BOUGHT. In that marvellous
place, a French kitchen, where two or
three little holes in a stove cook such deli
cate dishes, and perform such culinary
feats as our great roaring coal fires have
no conception of, she fits about like a
fairy, creating magical messes out of raw
material of the most ordinary description
Yes, though lady born and bred, refined,
elegant and agreeable in society, a belle in
her way, yet she does not think 1t beneath
her dignity to Tighten the household ex-
penses by practical economy and activity.
The dinner of a French family is cheap
and simple. There is always a soup, the
meat of the stewpan, sometimes, if not
strict in expenditure, another plate of meat,
generally two vegetables, dressed and
eaten separately, and sometimes, not al
ways, a sweet dish: if not that, a little
fruit, such as may be the cheapest and
ripest in the season. But there is very lit
tie in each thing, and it is rather In ar
rangement than In material that they ap-
pear rich. The French may be tr1t1e
epicurian in their tastes, but they are not
gourmands. They spend little IN eating,
and they eat inferior things, though their
cookery is rather a science than a mere &C
cident of civilization. At home the great
aim of the French is to save, and any self
sacrifice that leads to this result IS cheer
fully undertaken, more especially IN mere
eating than in the luxury of mere idleness.
No French woman will spend a cent to
save herself trouble She would rather
work like dray horse to buy an extra yard
of ribbon or new pair of gloves than Lie
on the softest sofa In the world, In placid
fine ladyism, with crumpled gauze or bare
hands

Influx at Chamberlain of Prospective Set
tiers on the Sioux Reservation

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D.-There is no fall
ing off in the number of arrivals of land
seekers. Every incoming train is heavily
loaded with persons who intend to settle
west of the river The crossing has be-
come perfectly safe again, the weather
having turned considerably colder,
although there is no snow. Another
crowd of boomers settled on tract of land
six miles north of the city, on the west side
of this river, a spot commonly known as
Brule Bottom and intend to start town
to rival the one at Lower Brule. There
have been many departures for the new
town, where there Is no trouble regarding
titles. The principal objection to the new
town, however, is that a railroad cannot
be built up to the prairie from it, as the
prairie is fully four hundred feet higher
than the town site. At Lower Brule a rail
road can be built up the American Greek
Valley, a gradual grade, and this is the
only practicable route to the prairie above
for a distance of thirty miles on either
side Of Chamberlain. The troops have not
yet taken action regarding the removal of
the houses from the lands now claimed by
the Indians at Lower Brule, and all sorts
of rumors are rife regarding various deals
between the town-siters and the Indians.
No definite conclusion has yet been reach
ed, however. The officials of the land
office, together with the force of clerks
sent out from Washington to assist in get
ting the office ready for business, have ar
rived and were given a warm reception
and banquet by the citizens. 1t is expect
ed that the Office will be ready to receive
filings by the last of this week, when a
great rush is expected. The Crow Creek
lands are all surveyed, as are also quite a
number of townships west of the river in
the neighborhood of The agencies. People
located on these lands will be ready to sub
nit filing as soon as they can perceived
by the land Office. A gentleman named
7. G. Sherman has just returned from
twenty miles in the interior, bringing a
number of fine samples of coal which he
reports to have found, with assistance of
Indians, in inexhaustible quantities. Mr..
Sherman represents a syndicate Of eastern
capitalists, who have located a number of
coal mines in the West He has ordered
an outfit with which to begin mining.

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD.

The wheel of the world turns round and round,
Those who are uppermost soon may be
Down in the dust or under ground;
The king in chains, the serf set free.
Over the track in sunshine and rain.
1t rolls on, over and over again.
The wheel of the world moves day and night,
And its swift revolutions bring
Nations from darkness into light,
Where bells of the good times coming ring
Over the plot where the palace shown,
1t rolls in the dust of the crown and throne
Around and round the wheel turns and goes.
Andwe 60 with il, now up, then down,
Few win the prize that many must lose,
Tired at the goal, how late comes the crownl
The brave, the true, the noble. the Just,
viii never be lost in the whirling dust.

Small Herds and First-C1ass Animals.
Philadelphia Record
II

The maxim "a small farm well titled
is an old one, and the frequent advice to
cultivate small areas is excellent, but this
rule is one that is also applicable to herds
and hocks in certain sense. To make a
small farm profitable the land must be
brought up to the highest degree of tertil-
ity, and it must be well fed if it is to pro-
duce heavily. The qnality of the soil is
the prime factor to be considered before
the venture is made. If farmers cultivate
too much land they also keep larger herds
and flocks than is necessary to success Its
the well-bred herd that gives the farmer a
profit, and the failure to make stock-rais-
ing pay is due to the keeping of large

A New Years longing.
NEW ORLEANS TINES DEMOCRAT.

Marie, o my beautiful darling
There's a song in the air tonight;
A year has gone by, and the music
Still fingers in sensuous might;
/ love, and my passion returning
Seems greeting me soul | with delight.
Marie, o my beautiful darling,
There's prayer in my heart for thee;
A wish-and my longing and passion,
Calls only, wants only Marie!
Graves naught-nor heaven nor angels,
Wants only, Graves only Marie!
Then CONGO my darling, my darling,
Come swiftly, o sweetheart, to me;
Leave all, and o hasten, ma chere,
To the lover that calls unto thee!
The love that worships, that longs for
That calls for, wants only Mariei

MUST HAVE HELP.
The South Dakota Legislature Adopts al
Appeal For Outside Aid.

MINNEAPoLIs, Feb. 18.-Fhe Journal g
Pierre, S. D., special says: The house
has passed joint resolution admitting
that restitution exists in many parts of
the state, and that the farmers must be
furnished with seed wheat by public
and private subscription. The resolution
declares that under the state consti-
tuition, state and county are powerless to
render aid, and that all the assistance must
come from outside sources. The whole
matter is placed in the hands of Governor
Mellette, who will appeal to the east for
aid. This action of the house is regarded
as complete endorsement of Governor
Mellette's begging errand. " 1t will

Houses Made Of Iron.

Iron is rapidly increasing in its use
for houses. You can buy a complete
iron house at the manufacturers and
have it sent anywhere in pieces. a
large number of iron villas have been
sent from England to the Riviera and
put up there upon plats of land pur-
chased or leased. with the provision
that when the lease expires the house
can be taken away. a comfortable
house can readily be built in a month.
The price of room measuring 20x13
feet is about $3.50

They VIII Petition Congress to Make the
Union Pacific Pay Its Debts.

LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 18-It was learn
ed yesterday that petitions are in circu-
lation in every county in Nebraska among
the farmers, directed to the Nebraska
delegation in congress, asking that the
time for the Union Pacific to meet It's
obligations 20 the government be not ex-
tended but the company be required to
make its payments as they become due. II
is also asserted that every farmer to whom
they are presented attaches his signature,
and that the probabilities are that wheI
this petition goes to Washington it viii
be the most formidable ever sent out from
this state.

Where shall we go? was the question,
We were in an unknown land Hitherto
we had said, I'VE will follow the Indians
and If they find water we, too. shall find
it. - We marched along YEARLY, not know
ing or greatly caring whittier. We had
left some dead on the field and had some
others and some wounded with US. As
the day drew near and the morning air be-
came freshened, we noticed that the totter-
ing pack-mules seemed TO gain new life,
and instead of keeping their place in the
rear trotted to the front. We hailed this
as sign that they scented the water we
needed so much. We let them keep the
lead, and just as the sun was rising on our
fifth day without water, we saw this novel
advance guard halt and lower their heads
to drink The day was spent IN drinking,
sleeping and drinking gain.
While we lay there a soldier came in
! from the rear. He said that during the
/ fight he had from sheer exhaustion, fallen
into stupor, and had awakened at morn
ing to find himself surrounded by Indians.
| Victorio, however, either from generosity
or contempt, allowed him to go unhurt,
! and even showed him our trail.
