HUNGRY COMANCHES.
Are Likely to Cause Trouble in Okla
homa Soon.

Washington. Oct. 14.-Capt. ]. A. Gas
ton, Eighth cavalry. who has been sta
toned a Fort Sill, Ok, passed through
Washington yesterday on his way to
Huntsville where his regiment has been
ordered. The principal duty of Captain
Gaston's command has been guarding
the captured Apaches, which have been
in the vicinity of Fort Sill for 80 years.
Capt CASTOR speaks in high terms or
the Apaches and says they are nearer
civilization now than many of the tribes
which have been cared for by the gov
eminent, but not by the army. The
reason for retaining the post at Sill is
to guard these Indians. 1t is very
unhealthy post and many soldiers
graves attest this fact. More than 80
men in Captain Gaston's troop were
sick at one time and only the most pa
tient care saved their lives. He thinks
if it had not been for the excellent care
and knowledge of the surgeon who had
cha rye of the hospital that the deaths
and disease would almost have equalled
other e. roDs of which complaints have
been made.
CAPITA n CASTOR thinks that troops will
be needed in Okl7 hOma to prevent trou-
BILE by the Commanders and KiOwas.
The Indians have been drawing regu-
lar annuities from the government up
to the present time but these have now
ceased and they have not the means OF
maintaining themselves. There are like
~ to be raids upon the stock of the
white men in the vicinity when the In
dams become hungry.

Galveston, and a right-of-way has been
obtained through the Indian Territory

line to the north line of Texas will be-
gin.

been secured but it is said will have
been arranged for when the road is

sympathy went out to his grief stricken
wife, who, with other kind folks and
friends. had taken supper with Mr. and
Mrs Charles 2. Dair, at the Gerard
house, and were enjoying the evening
at Mr. Dair's. The occasion that
brought them together was a JOYOUS
one. it being the 2eth marriage ami
versary of Charles E. Dair, and the af-
ternOon had been spent happily.
Previous to the dread summons that
came to Edward Dair, he had by spec
ial request Of those present. consented
to recite The Dreamer and a selection
of Lord Byron's, and after completing
the recitation, sat down in a rocker
and seemed to be meditating, but at the
same time his breathing was noticed to
be heavy and labored. Charles Dair
gave him a fan and asked him if he
wasn't feeling i'll, and the only response
he made was, 'What?'
Failing back he soon breathed his
last. He had not regained conscious
ness, but breathed away his life calm
~ and without the least struggle. So
