taken out to the penitentiary to which
he had been condemned. There

BLEW UP THE REDSKINS.
A Happy Idea Saved the Train and
Worked Havoc With the Enemy.
From the Chicago Times.

AT 4 o'clock in the afternoon this was
the situation of affairs on the sterile plain
south of Fort Chadbourne, Tex: There
were sixteen army wagons loaded with
supplies for the fort. The cavalry escort
numbered only thirty-eight men. Count
ing the transfers we had ffty-four. The
Indians had closed in on both sides and in
the rear, and no one estimated their
number at less than $50, all mounted
There was this in our favor-onIy
a few had rifles. At least POO were armed
with lances, and so long as we could hold
them off with our carbines we need not
fear them. Our route was narrow val
ley bluffed on each side, and these bluffs
were impossible for horses. Here and
there the valley spread out until it WAS
half a mile wide, and again il contracted
until only two wagons could move
abreast. Our safety was to keep moving
and depend on the rear guard to fight
them back.
That valley was three miles long. When
we had debouched on the plain beyond the
Indians would charge us. We figured our
chance as one in five The transfers might
or might not fight. They were all MeNi-
cans and they might even be suspected
of being the allies of the redskins

wagons were sent on ahead. From the

with powder, bullets and shot, the

held the Indians al baV we duo hples in
the ground and set each shell on end with

four Indians and negroes, killing forty

When the Indians were surprised in their
fishing operations by the troops, those
who escaped immediate capture or death,
made off in various directions in their
boats Most of them were taken in the
pursuit by the troops.
One game boat containing warriors,
4 squaws and 2 children, was chased by
Lieut.. Taylor, two privates and the ser
geant. When they were within rifie-shot
OF the Indians their boat got aground
They all jumped out to pull their boat
into deep water, and in doing so got so
suddenly beyond their depth that they
were completely immersed-arms and all
The sergeant was the only one who es-
capped immersion. The Indians now fired
upon them from their boat, but without
effect. The sergeant returned it, and one

duel, for one of the other two warriors
jumped out of the boat and made his
escape as soon as the sergeant approached
and the other was too badly wounded to
fight The squaws remained passive
spectators of the battle 1t was short

his rife, and that was of no great use at
short quarters. His object was to beat
out his adversary's brains, but finding
that impracticable his next aim was to
prevent his enemy from boarding him, in
which he succeeded for a short time But
as soon as the white man got footing in
the boat his bowie knife soon ended the
