AFTER CHARLESTON TERMINALS.

Charleston. S. c.. July 25.-It was
stated here to-day on excellent author
ity that the Seaboard Air Line Sys-
tenn is trying to buy the terminal prop
critics of the Louisville and Nashville
in this city. This property consists
of extensive wharves, warehouses, and
valuable frontage on the Cooper river.
The Louisville and Nashville has al
ways held closely to the possession of
its Charleston terminals, but 1t is said
now that an offer of $25, 900 more than
already bid by the Seaboard would
complete the trade. The Seaboard
some months ago bought q site for
freight and passenger stations here,
and it is generally known that it has
surveyed line between Charleston and
Atlanta, facts which give color to the
rumored offer to purchase the Louis
Vile and Nashville terminals. The all
legged deal would seriously conflict.
however with the story recently print
ed, that the Louisville ard Nashville
was about to buy or lease the Augusta
division of the Southern, with a view
of entering Charleston.

was trackless, and every foot of the way
beset with unknown dangers. Her pony
was a tough little brute and he easily
made the trip without mishap, and
the COW camp was reached just at dusk,
with neither the rider nor the pony
much the worse for the long trip.
Before now there have been rides told
of in story and rhyme that in no WY
compare with the one made by this
pioneer woman. AS far as known, this
is the first time the incident has been
told of in print; but the event of that
sturdy pioneer woman, then a grand
mother, galloping all day long on
prairie destitute of people. past homes
that had been deserted, and knowing
not what moment her ears might be sar
luted by the blood-curdling yells of huns
dreds of painted savages, whose hands
had but the day before been stained with
the blood of five of the ranchers Of this
county, is surely worth place in the
history of the pioneers of Montana.
Mrs. Wadams lost little time in tell
ing her story, and it created more than
a little CONSERVATION among the ranch
men present. They did not like the idea
of leaving their cattle to- the mercy of
the Nez Perces, but the thought that
they could buy other cattle some day,
hut that they could not buy another
scalp should the Indians deprive them nj
the one they had, decided the balance,
and with but one or two exceptions the
morning found them all on their way ~
Bannack, where the safety found. in
numbers was assured to all.
But the Indians passed Bannack by
on the other side, and soon We're cross
ir g the Medicine Lodge pass into Idaho
again. At the ranch now owned by J..
c. Bremen, on Horse Prairie creek, three
men We're killed. They had been warned

We're on the warparth and made their
memorable march from Oregon through
Idaho and Montana to.near the British
possessions.
At that time there was quite large
number Of cattle owned on Horse Prairie.
and they We're being herded on sum-
mer range near the head of Sheep creek
basin. When the Indians crossed the
divide from the Bitter Root, Bob Nc
Dowell was herding the cattle. Assist
ing him, more for the sake of the lads
company than for anything else, was
little Dune Wadams, years old, who is
now the owner of a promising mining
property in the Big Hole basin.
When it was learned that the Indians
intended to cross the prairie, after the
fight on Battle creek, commonly known
as the Gibbons Massacre" the residents
Of Bannack became alarmed and sent
warnings throughout the adjoining coun~
try. Bannack was then the leading town
of the county, Dillon not even being
thought Of.
From all parts of Beaverhead county
the residents fed either to Virginia City,
Sheridan or Bannack for protection. In
! the latter place the women and childre i
We're assembled in the court house, and
| two strong block houses were built above
| the house in order to protect it.
| Day after day the alarm increased
and all sorts of rumors Of murders We're
afoat. Finally it was remembered tina,
| many of the stockmen of the prairie
| were at the cattle camp on Sheep creek
| turning over lot of beef cattle to Bar
| ney Hunter, who at that time bought ur
| nearly all the surplus cattle in Mon
tana each year and shipped them t.
market.
Mrs. Wadams was among the people
who had assembled in Bannack, bu;
never for minute did she forget tina;
her little boy was among those stock
men, and that they We're all in imminent
danger of being surprised and massacre
by the bloodthirsty savages, who We're
more than little sore in mind and bod /;
as the result of the battle with Gibbons

THRILLING STORY NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED OF HOW MRS.
THROUGH A WILD, REDSKlN INFESTED COUNTRY TO WARN
DANGER "A DEED THAT PUT THE MEN TO SHAME.

It was not deemed possible to spare
man from Bannack. No one knew
what minute all the available men would
be called upon to defend the ones near
and dear to them who had sought the
shelter Of the court house. Somebody
had to go, and Mrs. Wadams, fearless
and brave, like so many Of the pioneer
women and with the mother love upper
most in her heart, decided that she would
ride to warn the men at the stock camp
Of their peril.
1t was a little after daylight when she
rode out Of Bannack, all alone, but with
the best prayers of all the residents of
the town for her safety. The ride was
a long one-60 miles-over a prairie that
