and Muncey's outfit and the Apaches
ran foul of each other, neither party
wanted to be burdened with boy.
But the Apaches were between him and
the old post He's had only one place
to run for, and that was the canyon.
Muncey's outfit probably reached it
almost at the same time. and he had to
hide from both. BY this time, it's my
belief, he's stolen out and made his way
back to the old post"
1t was nearly midnight when Cullen,
riding at brisk walk at the head of
the column. pointed silently to the
huge black bulk of precipice overhang-
ing the Sandy a few yards ahead. 1t
was SO dark that only by giving the
horse his head and an occasional prod
with the spurred heel the leader
could follow the winding trail Were
within few rods of Sanchez's camp, y
muttered Kelly to the impatient boy.
THE canyon opens out just below
here"
81 know" said Randall, briefly. I'm
wild to signal to Leon now. He knows
my call as well as bird knows its
mates"
"Ah, but it isn't up here yen find
him, Masther Randall" said the old
man, striving to prepare the boy for
disappointment. Even if they had
fetched him this far he'd be working
back now for the post, where Mrs. Kelly
and the girls will be main glad to see
him."
But no sooner had the leader of the
little column passed the base of the
cliff than Randall urged his horse for
ward to his fathers side. II can tell
it in the dark" said he; may 60
ahead?"
Cullen nodded, and the boy spurred
eagerly on. The Sandy roared and
rushed close by the trail as it turned the
point, then more placidly swept along
over some pebbly shadows, where The
heights on the western side fell away
and gave place to deep and sheltered
nook. They had reached the spo
where the Sanchez party was campet
when overwhelmed by the cloudburst
where the luckless Mexicans, that very
morning, following blindiy their ras
cally leaders, were corral,ed and mas
sacreds without mercy.

Now, you and your men and horses

stay here with your detachment and
I'll take my men and see what we can
find up yonder in the hills" and Tan
ner pointed to the Socorro. "Leon's
captors may be waiting there for dark
ness before attempting to cross the
open country toward the Mogollon.
You can have four hours sleep and be
ready to ride on to Retribution with
the general tonight"
So said, so done. Capt. Tanner
called up his men, saddled and rode
away, Thornton's horses were given a
good feed of barley from the pack train,
and, with a small herd guard on duty,
the rest of the command sprawled any
where they could find shade and were
snoring in ten minutes time.
:. The sun went down red in the west

Hidden from Apaches, who at dawn,
said they, were thick as leaves in
~Socorro, and Ferguson was loud in dis
gust at the escape of two arch thieves.
And not ten minutes after they came in
from the south, covered with dust and
drawn by six spanking mules, with a
dozen grimy troopers as escort, the
generals big black ambulance drove in
from the north.
First to emerge from the interior was
a snappy aid-de-eamp, followed quickly
by the grave, quiet hammered chief
himself,
whats the truth about Muncey's

CHAPTER VII

Maj. Cullen, Fastening back to the
field of duty, had made much quicker
time than even he had thought posi-
BILE. Alighting from the Central Pacific
express at the Oakland wharf at eight
o'clock Of the fair June evening, the lit
tie party was met by an aid-de-camp of
the general commanding the military
division of the Pacific, whose head
quarters were in San Francisco, and as
they steamcd across the beautiful bay
toward the great city of the Golden
Gate, with its myriad lights and rival
ing the reflected images of the stars,
the latest tidings from Apachelacd
were unfolded. The military telegraph,
the pioneer OF it's kind, had not then
been strung across the Mohave desert,
and all communication between Ari-
IONA and the nearest telegraph sta
tion-Drum Barracks, at Wilmington,
on the California coast--was by courier
or blackboard, and it was here, instead
of in Arizona, that for time the de-
partment commanders had been al
lowed to establish their office. 1t was
here that the news of the revolt at tho
reservation was received by the new
commander; here that he wired to Cui
len and received his reply; here, a few
days later. that there was brougha tc
him the tidings of the genera uprising
Unlike his predecessors, the new gen
eral commanding this remote field dc
cided that the place from which TO di
rect operations wasnot Drum Barracks
several hundred miles from the scene
but the heart of the Indian country
and thither he went fast as blackboard
could bear him.

rife violence and was accompanied by a
very heavy rainfall. The many mountain
streams on the various islands were soon
transformed into torrents that swept down
into and over the valleys, carrying every
thing before them. The loss of life is
known TO have been tremendous, but as
yet it is impossible TO say how many per-
sons perlshed and it win probably be sew

From the advices now at hand it appears
that the island of St Ninccnt, one OF the
Windward group, and the island of Mont
serrat one of the Leeward group, suffered
very severely A number Of sugar, coffee
and cotton estates were inundated, and IN
some cases the entire crops were torn ont
by the roots and carried into the sen.
Many Of the persons drowned were negroes
who lived in the vicinity of the water
courses and who had little If any warning
