A great deal of loss occurs each year

ones own or a neighbours stock that
does the damage-it was the fault of
the open gateway. The cut shows a
gate that will always stay shut, unless
one holds it open. A stout spiral spring

Al INTERESTING STORY
Told by q Man With Many
Notches on His Gun.
THE HEROISM OF CHAPMAN
Rescued Q Soldier From Under the
Guns OF Three Hundred Indians.
Corralled by Cheyennee IN a
Bufalo wailow.

Bat Masterson. who has the reputa-
ton Of having killed more people than
any other man in the West, and who
made quite a number Of acquaintance
when he visited Butte last December,
tells an interesting story in the New
York Sun in regard to the unparalleled
heroism OF Amos Chapman.
ITO fight Indians was bad enough"
Mr.. Masterson said. but to be corralled
by them in a buffalo wallow n held
there by them, and water VI to your

II knew Chapman quite well. He had
been on the frontier q long time. He
wa from the East. He had hunted
buffalo, traded with Indians, fought
with them In 1865, n finally married a
Cheyenne. He was not more than 80
yean old. tough. sure shot, good inter-
prefer. fearless rider, n as brave as a
man could be.
IL was In September, 1874, that Cen
eral Miles command was camped on
the Red river. In the Texas Panhandle,
where Il had followed the retreating In
dams, or rather the main cody of them.
Prairie Dog Dave and I were selected

from General Miles TO Major Compton,
whose command was located on McClel-
and creek, about rs miles to the north.
Some Of the dispatches were really in
tended for Camp Supply. In the Indian
territory. still further north, but our In
structions were simply to deliver them
to Major Compton. Dave and I hoped
TO b. sent on TO Camp Supply with them.
for we needed some new and warmer
clothes. as II was beginning 10 be cold
nights.
I'VE were not clad in buckskin and
beads. as scouts are usually pictured.
Our clothing simply consisted OF a pair
OF cheap overalls. calico shirts. soft hat
and a pair OF boots. We had lived in
them all summer. and thought II about
time TO change them. We reached
Compton's camp without incident and
cursed our luck when we received re-
turn dispatches TO Miles, while ours
were turned over to Billy Dixon and
Amos Chapman to take to Camp Supply.
Later when we learned what they went
through we took II all back.

away the next. 1t was considered best
to send a ergeant and Ave soldiers with

and from the remains of their compan-
ions. IL must have been a fearful ex-
~perience.
AS Dixon was the only one unin-
jured, he crewled out of the wallow
during the worst OF the storm and start
ed south toward Major Compton's COM
mand for help. He had no trouble in
passing the Indians. for they were in
tent upon protecting themselves from
the downpour. Indians do not like
water. Dixon Travelled fully 30 miles on
foot that night in the drenching rain.
and as day broke he took refuge in a
clump OF wild plum bushes During
the forenoon he saw a body OF horse
men In the distance. but it was some
time before he assured himself that IL
was a party of soldiers out scouting.
He fired his gun and attracted their at
tention.
THE party at once started back TO the
rescue, but some precaution had to be
taken. Dixon, with remarkable instinct,
brought them back TO within a few rods
OF the wallow, but II was dusk, and
there was danger of being mistaken for
Indians, who, by the way, had cleared
out for reasons known 10 themselves.
IL was some time before Chapman could
be convinced that II was Dixon calling
him and not the Indians, who had tried
20 lure him out by talking English.
"An that day the men had been in
torture. and still they were a long way
from the hospital Chapman rode 80
miles on horseback to Camp Supply,
where the leg was amputated below the
knee. He vas out In a month. but al
ways a to mount his horse afterward
with his right leg, as the ndian do.
He and Ben Clark escorted Dull Knife's
band OF Cheyennes down from the Da-
kotas to the Indian reservation in 1877.

rare occasions that three such distin-

strong enough attraction for being the
feature Of high-class concerts. A treat

Locked Up Together.

An old g~ray-haired mendicant whose
tongue betrayed his nativity as the land
OF the olive. but who gave the very
much Americanized name Of George
Cook, was arrested last evening for i'm
bibing too freely. The old man is an
organ grinder and carried on his back a
big hand organ in addition to his other
load. on the top of the han organ
perched a solemn-faced monkey. decked
out in a red Goa and a miniature fe-
dora hat. Jocko looked m~ournfully
down on his master as he struggled un-
der his combined burden, and when he
gave officer Laughlin an appealing look
he responded and took the whole outfit

contempt for the policemen as well as
his master when the latter was sub
jected to the humiliation of being
searched. but set up a big howl about
being separated from the old man, so
both were locked up together.

THE BALL GAME
It Jones Park, Friday Afternoon.

A good crowd saw the base ball game at the park Friday after noon, and came away well pleased with the evidence of base ball tai ent in the city this year. The old fans were pleased to see Fran k Flanders playing the same game he played before the war AS 8 boy he was "trainad in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." He accept ed eleven difficult chances without an error and assisted at two doub- les, besides hitting the ball "just like he used to.
 Many of last years team were seen again in the red Y. M. c. A. suits and a few youngsters were wearing them, who promise 10 be the kind of ball players Pine Bluff needs.
 The game Frirday was an eii- denca that the Y. M. c. A. can turn out the best amatuer team in tie State when the occasion arises, just as they did last year. The score of 21 to l doesn't more than tell the ta.e. They ran the bases all around their opponents and gave evidence of team work all around, which promises vel. for the future. Most of the colts of last year are playing like veterans this season, and it will be hard to choose among al the good material in sight. The line up was as follows:
