IN CLOSE QUARTERS.
The Critical situation Of . Pair Of
Border Scouts Relieved In q
Singular Manner.

Many and varied were the expert
ences which befell the heroes of In
dian warfare. Jack Stilwell and
''Pete" Trudeau, two border scouts,
had peculiar adventure one day in
northern Kansas when on the way to
summon help to the little fort on the
Arikaree river, which was besieged by
the Indians, relates Youths Com
panion. /.
The two scouts had made their way
under cover of the darkness until they
thought they were safe from pursuit.
Then they plunged boldly forward.
They were crossing level plain
when they deserted several Indians on
horseback. Hoping that they had not
been seenby the savages, the white men
dropped to the ground, and seeing the
skeleton of a buffalo not far distant,
they quickly got behind it and con-
cealed themselves in some weeds
which grew rank and high about it.
Poor though it was, it was the only
shelter in the vastp plain.
They had not been long hidden
when they heard the galloping Of
horses hoofs, and the Indians came
to halt not a hundred yards from
where they lay. They gave them
selves up for lost for moment, but
soon ascertained that the Indians had
halted merely for breakfast.
At that very instant, however, they
were menaced by an unexpected dan
ger. They were pressing closeagainst
the buffalo skeleton, afraid to move
for fear Of disclosing themselves to the
Indians, when they heard.a peculiar
.whir, and to their horror saw huge
rattlcsnake coiled within two feet Of
their faces.
It was trying moment. Death
threatened them on either hand. Both
men remained motionless, however,
and at length the angry RATHER quieted
down and its tail ceased its rapid vibra-
tions, although it still remained in
coil. The slightest movement on the
part Of the scouts sufficed to set the
rattlcs in motion again.
For what seemed long time the
situation remained unchanged. Then
Jack, who was solacing himself with
a large chew Of tobacco, suddenly spat
squarely OF. the snakes head.
The reptile was taken by surprise
and the result was good. The snake
uncoilcd and glided off, actually crawl
ing over Trudeau's leg as it went.
The Indians rode away soon after
ward, and the two scouts drew a
breath of relief. But it was not for
several hours that they dared to ven
ture from their place of concealment.
