Gen. Schoheld has received telegram
from Gen. Miles dated at Pine Ridge
agency, Jan,4k saying that 5000 In
dians, men, n,hrenen and children, and In
cluding abou 800 bucks, are now en-
Camped in Section of the Bad Lands
about fifteen miles from the Pine Ridge
agency, and Mere is almost Gordon OF
troops around them. Gen. Miles an
nounces that he hoped to be able to in
duce the hostiles to surrender without a
struggle. The spotwhere they are en-
cAmped he describes as somewhat like
the lava beds Of California, where the
Modocs made their final fight 1t is In
excellent posision from an Indian stand
point, but there are now no avenues OF
escape, all having been closed by the
troops. General Miles says the Indians
have gathered some cattle and provis-
ions and appear to be determined to
make their fight for supremacy OF this
point.
General Miles, he added, has charge
OF the campaign, and asst has progressed
he has stationed himself at the most con-
venient points for general communica-
tion with his forces.
SIT is very difficult" he said, ''to esti-
mate just how many troops thero are
now ON the scene Of action. Gen. Miles
has twelve regiments of infantry, five
of cavalry and some artillery forces,
about half regiment. This gives him
seventeen and half regiments, but that
would not indicate the number Of men,
for 1t is impossible to say how full COM
plement each regiment has in the field.
When troops move in the winter in such
&hnrry, there is always large proper
ton of the men left behind from sickness,
etc, and / would not like to guess how
many soldiers there are in the circle
around the Indians.

A Yelled Woman Dashes Pitcher of Blue

Barber.
Never before in the history of Putnam
County was there such d strange and
vicious assault as was prepetrated at
Greencastle, Ind, the other evening.
Shortly before z o'clock, as Theodore
Kleinbub, resident OF the north part Of
the city, was returning home from his
place of business, he was met by q
thickly-veiled woman, who, thinking it
was his brother, E. D., rushed upon him
with pitcher of some unknown acid.
Seeing from beneath the CLEAN OF the
gas light that she was mistaken in her
victim, she suddenly disappeared In the
darkness, and few moments later ap-
peared at the business place of Klein
bub Bros, the most popular BARRIERS of
the city. Mr.. E. d. Kleinbub was busy
at his chair when q small boy handed
HIM a note, which read: ''Come to the
door moment" As he approached the
door some unknown woman dashed a
pitcher of blue vitriol in his face. His
face is in most critical condition. 1t Is
said that he knows who perpetrated the
deed, but people are in the dark as yet.

Berlin Special: The TdgebLdtt, Of this

spondent In Zanzibar, dated December
S. The letter states that Emin Pasha
sent lately LieutenaDts Laughed and
Buellow and another officer with troops
to Urambo, where they fought battle
with the the Watuta tribe, defeating the
latter with severe loss. The Watuta
tribe subsequently Joined forces with the
WanIamwesi tribe, and again attacked
the German troops. Another Sc
we're engagement followed, and the
result was that the Watutas
were again defeated. The second
defeat, it is added, was partly due to the
fact that the Watutas were deserted
soon after the eengagement by their allies,
the Waniamwesis. The German forces
lost three killed and had nine men
wounded. Lieutenant Sigel, of the Ger
man force, was wounded in the head.
The Watutas escaped with difficulty.

Panic ina Prison.

A 5000, 900 FIRE and panic involving
370 convicts took place at the Clinton
prison, Dannemora, N. Y. The build
ings burned include all the new portion Of
the prison, the kitchen, the hospital, store
room, State shop and machine shop.
The $40 convicts, who were panic
stricken, were in the new portion of the
prison. They made q stampede to escape,
but were corralled and marched to the
old prison. The institution was entirely
bereft OF provisions and 1t was necessary
to telegraph to Plattsburg for supplies.
When first discovered the fire, wlich
started in the kitchen department, had
attained such headway that it could
not be checked with the limited fire fight
ing facilities of the prison.

BRAVE COMPANY ~K."

Every Commissioned and Non-Commis-
stoned Onioer Fell in the Battle with the
Indians.
A special from Pine Ridge Agency,
s, D., dated the 1st inst, says: The
Seventh Cavalry had just reached camp
Yesterday morning, after repulsing the
attack made on their supply train by
Two Strikes band, when courier ar
fiyed with word that the Catholic mission
was on fire, and the teachers and pupils
were being massacred. In twenty min
qtes the weary, hunEry, exhausted cav
airy was once more IN motion. They
found that the fire was at the Day
School, one mile this side OF the mission.
The Indians were found to the number
of $4,000, under the command OF Little
Wound and Two Strike, about one mile
beyond the mission. The Seventh formed
q line and began the fighting, which was
carried on by 1nly three or four hundred
Indians at a time, while the great masses
kept concealed. Gen. Forsythe sus-
pected an ambush, and did not let them
draw him into dangerous ground. Col.
Henry started one hour later than For
sythe, and, owing to the exhaustion of
his horse, had to travel very slowly.
The Seventh became surrounded by
the redskins, but just as the circle was
ready to charge the Ninth broke in upon
the rear of the hostiles and they vanished
and the weary soldiers slowly retreated,
reaching the agency at dark. The in
fantry had been ordered ont but were
stopped by the sight of the head of the
column of cavalry. The soldiers, brave
and heroic as they are, were greatly out
numbered, and there are not enough
troops at this point to clean out these In
dians, who are still camped within seven
miles of the agency. The damage done
the troops is small. Lieut.. Mann, OF
Company X, Seventh Cavalry, was
wounded, shot through the side. The
First Sergeant of Company X was also
wounded.
The fights of yesterday and to-day
leave Company X without single offi'
Ger, either commissioned or non-commis-
stoned.

fire to the hotel. The guests were hus-
tied out amid great excitement and con-
veyed to other hotels. The firemen now

ROW to COOK an old Hen.

Prot. w. tMattieu Williams gives, in
Knowledge, his practical experience
with elderly poultry Is follows:

than six years old, but otherwise in very
good condition. Cooked in the ordinary
way she would have been uneatablT
tough. Instead Of being thus cooked,
she was gently stewed about four hours.
can not guarantee to the maintenance
of the theoretical temperature, having
suspicion OF some simmering. After
this she was left in the water until iE
cooled, and on the following day VS.
roasted in the usual manner, / g., in .
roasting oven. The result was excellents
as tender as full-grown chicken
roasted in the ordinary way, and of
quite equal flavor, in spite Of the very
good broth obtained by the preliminary
stewing. This surprised me. Iantici-
pated the softening of the tendons and
ligaments. but supposed that the exttae7
ton Of juices would have spoiled the
favor. It must have diluted IL, and
thatso much remained was probably
due to the fact that an old fowl is more
fully favored than q young chicken.
The usual farmhouse method Of cook
ing old hens is to stew them simply;
the rule in the Midlands being one hour,
in the pot for every year Of age, The
feature OF the above experiment was
the supplementary roasting. AS the
laying season is now coming to an end
old hens will soon be drug in the
market, and those among my readers
who have not hen roost of their own
will oblige their poulterers by ordering
q hen that is warranted to be four years
old or upward. If he deals fairly, he
will supply specimen upon which they
may repeat my experiment, very
cheaply. It offers the double economy
of utilizing q nearly waste product and
obtaining chicken broth and roast fowl
simultaneously.
One OF the great advantages OF stew-
ing is that it affords means ct obtain
ing Q savoYy and very wholesome dish
at minimum Of cost. A small piece of
meat may be stewed with large guam.
tity OF vegetables, the juice Of the meat
savoring the while. Besides this, ii
costs far less fuel than roasting.
The wife Of the French or Swiss
landed proprietor, |. e., the peasant,
cooks the family dinner with less than
tenth OF the expenditure Of fuel used
in England for the preparation Of an in-
ferior meal. A little charcoal under
her bainmarie does it ell. The economy
Of time corresponds to the economy Of
fuel, for the mixture Of viands required
for the stew once put in, the pot is left
to itself until dinner. or at most an oc-
casional stirring Of fresh charcoal into
the embers Is all that is demanded.
