STORY OF APACHE
CRUELTY IN THE
WEST,

by counting the tracks of their horses.
We rode at the height of speed all
day; not stopping for food or rest In
the evening we entered valley that
extended farther than the eye could
reach to the southwark. 1t was
bright moonlight night, and all night
we rode through the valley. The
weaker horses gave out, but the main
body pushed on, stopping only to water
the horses at mountain stream and
snatch quick lunch from a small
store with which we were supplied. 1t
was the longest and hardest ride l
ever knew, and yet we seemed far be-
hind the fleeing savages. At daylight
we reached a stream of water and
there the quick eye of our scouts dis
covered the dead body of Mrs. Whites
babe. The babe had been killed by
the Indians out of wanton cruelty. At
the spring our guides decided that we
should rest while they pushed eau
tiously ahead without any attendants.
They believed the Indians would be
found in camp along the valley, and
the approach must be with the great
est caution. We waited for hours. Our
patience was sorely tried, but in the
evening we had chance at the saw
ages. The party of which l was
member was lying in the rocks, with
the camp of the Indians directly before
us, and each man had singled out his
savage. The Indians were stretched
on the ground around a smouldering
fire, and they paid no attention what
ever to our whippoorwill's cry. We
opened fire from both sides of the
rushed forward. Seven of the Indians
lay dead. Several of the sleeping forms
leaped to their feet and disappeared
in the shadow of the trees. Upon ar
irving at the camp we found to our
sorrow that Mrs. White was dead. One
of the fleeing demons had stabbed her
to the heart, and her servant was
treated in the same inhuman manner
Both bodies were warm, but the saw
ages had accomplished all the harm
possible, and several of the Indians
escaped entirely. We buried the bodies
in the shadow of the mountains, and
out of reach of wolves and. coyotes. but
our hearts were sad as We returned to
the fort. A year later a watch case
with the initials "E. j. W." engraved
upon it was recovered from cap

A veteran who was on the trail in
NeW MEXICO previous to the outbreak
OF the civil war relates a story of a
fhlladelphian, which was the expert
ence of many unfortunate travellers
with the Apache Indians in the south
west. The veteran at the time was the
guest OF officers at Fort Fillmore, long
since abandoned. The Philadelphian,
T.. j. White, arrived at the post in an
ambulance, with his wife and child
and two servants, a man and his wife.
Mr. White had been appointed at
Washington as sutler for the military
post of Fort Buchanan, several days
distant from Fillmore. White had
never been in the Indian country and
laughed at the fears of the people at
the Tort, who warned him of danger
from an attack of prowling Apaches.
He said he could not wait for strong
er party to come along and would start
for his destination the next day. Mrs.
White was a beautiful young woman
or one of the eastern cities, who had
never left her fathers roof until she
started with her husband for the wilds
OF the mountains. The ambulance

on the morning after that" says the
veteran, 1--WE were aroused by the
rapid beating of the drum. Two men
had arrived at the post from the west.
They said that about twenty miles
from the post they came across the
dead bodies of two men and the frag-
ments of a wagon which had been set
on fire. Evidently there had been an
attack by the Indians and the travel
ers had been taken by surprise. I'm

horses at the post. We had at our
head two of the most noted scouts of
the southwest. They rode forward
without word. We arrived at the
scene of the massacre in about two
hours, and found that the story was
too true. No traces of Mrs White or
her babe could be found, and we knew
she had been carried off a prisoner to
a fate worse than death. We hastily
buried the two men and started on the
trail of the savages. The trail led to-
ward the Florida mountains, which ex-
tend into Chihuahua, Mexico, and we
knew long chase was before us, with
poor chances of ever coming up with
the Indians. There were fifteen Indi-
ans in the party, as our guides found

NO GOOD"

The army woman, who has been
married 10 years and moved 13 times,
told an experience the other evening
which was appreciated by many who
were present. She was talking about
Chinese servants, who, by the way,
are much like monkeys or parrots, i'm
itative, but not original. She said:
Now, there was Sam! That al
mond-eyed fellow could cook for fur
ther orders and he was willing and
Industrious, but he simply would not

seemed to have been suddenly stricken
deaf, dumb and blind every time the

are in these army posts. The servant
is obliged to do all the work. so

matrimony it also discourages divorce.
1t suggests that still greater restraint
might be put on the impulse to appeal
to the divorce court by providing for
a series of premiums on a happy and
continued welded life, to be paid at
intervals. OF course, it might be worth
more money for some to fulfill these
requirements than others, but this
could be overcome by board of equal
ization. After careful study of the
situation the society might offer great
er inducements to those who seemed
to be entitled to them. AS membership
in the society is open to both husbands
and wives, the influences toward fault
less domestic behavior are doubled.
The possibilities of this new and prom
ising means of combating growing
evil are recommended to those who are
making a study of divorce.

icines which were only of temporary
relief. Peruna is the catarrh cure. The

Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal
diseases. 1t acts quickly and bene-
ficially upon the inflamed mucous

catarrh.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located.
