Indian scouts watched every foot Of their
progress, little suspecting that the willy
Ottawa, appraised By the Canadians of their
plans, had broken up his camp and was
moving down upon them with his full
force Of savage and bloodthirsty warriors.
Referring to a map of this section of the
country the reader will notice small
stream which puts in from the northern
shore. short distance above Detroit. AT
the point where the bridge was situated
the stream descended through deep and
wild looking hollow, while upon the oppo-
site side the river bank rose in several
ridges. Here Pontiac had erected several
intrenchmeuts, besides throwing together
several piles of cord wood further on. Be
hind those INSTRUCTIONS hundreds of Indians
were crouehing like tigers awaiting their
prey, as the dull tramp of the approaching
soldiers was heard The advance guard
arrived at the bridge and crossed unmo-
Tested, and the main body had just entered,
when loud and terrible yells burst forth,
and a sheet of fire passed along the entire
ridge. The fire was terrible. One-half
of the advance guard fell dead and the
Others reeoiled 10 terror; but Capt. Dalzell,
in his clear, ringing voice, inspired his men
with his own courage. Advancing to the
front he led them to the attack. A second
voIley was poured into them, when, furi-
GUS with rage, he led the men on a rapid
run across the bridge and up the bill, but
not savage was visible. Half frantic
with fury the soldiers charged behind the
fences and intrenehments, but the agile foe
had disappeared. The night was now Of
inky blackness, and the men became scat
tered among the houses and enclosures.
The only resource leftwas to fall back and
awnit for daylight Accordingly Capt.
Grant led his men across the bridge, where
the others soon followed, with the excep-

witnessed the start of the race at the
corner OF Fifteenth and Eoff, and three
or four hundred people were enough in
terested III things cycling to go out and
witness tho finish. It was conducted
fairly and no "kick is coming" to any
one. The winner won the contest fair
ly, and besides bagging the $3.50 pneu-
matte wheel takes down the valuable
time prize.
Nearly an hour before the time an-
nounced for the start cyclers aud the
people generally began to gather at the
starting point The contestants were
kindly allowed the use OF the Linsly in.
stitute armory as o dressing room, and
soon they began to emerge dressed in
the familiar cycler's racing costume.
The judges and other officials sta.
toned themselves at the corner and
called out the limit men who got eight
minutes start. There were two Of
them, little Allie Smith on q 26.inch
machine, and 2. Schrader, who got off
in good shape; though Smith took a
tumble further up on Fifteenth, he was
soon on his wheel again and speeding
after Schrader. In quick succession
the contestants who had handicaps OF
seven, six, five aud four minutes were
started away. There were more Of the
latter than any other-tive. There we're
three three-minute men, and two who
got two minutes start. The one-minute
riders were Ensign, OF Huntington, and
stronach, OF Parkersburg, while those
placed at scratch were Stamp and Ri
heldafIer.
AZ soon as all had been started the
officials OF tho race proceeded to the
place where the finish was to take place,
Thompson's. There was much guess
ing as to the time that would DO made
BY the winner, some declaring it would
not be made under an hour. This as
sertion was soon disproved, as just q few
seconds after 1888 the fret man hove in
sight The winner proved to be Max
Mahlke, who hadstarted from the three
minute mark, and had made the fifteen
miles in SO minutes and AZ seconds,
which was remarkably good time, con-
sidering the great number OF hills TO be
climbed Mahlke's proved also to be
the best time made, so he gets the time
prize. The next man in was Schrader,
one of the limit mon. who passed over
the tape less than minute behind tho
winner. Hackins followed in half q
minute and then came Greor. The frat
out-of.town rider TO finish was Ensign,
who took twelfth place, while Stronach,
Of Parkersburg, finished fourteenth.
