A REAL HEROINE.
By NJ. Quad.


In May. 1867, when the Indians
We're raiding Kansas in half a dozen
different directions. they attacked
among scores of other. the frontier
cabin of Charles Thompson and killed
him and his wife and carried off little
Jimmie, their ten-year-old son. into
captivity.
There was a daughter. Mary, eigh-
teen years old, who was fortunately
away from home, but two weeks later
she donned mems attire and set out
on horseback in hopes to rescue her
brother single handed She had not
been riding two hours when she found
that twelve mounted warriors had
taken her trail. This was at 10 o'clock
in the morning, and on the open
plains. She headed for the far away
hills as soon as she knew that she was
pursued, and for the first hour the
Indians gained on her
When they had come within half
mile she set the pace to hold them at
that distance, and then made one of
the greatest rides recorded under like
circumstances Her horse was in
prime condition. and the Indian ponies
were also at their best The redskins
knew whom they were after, and they
were determined to capture her alive
and unhurt. The flight and pursuit
lasted for sixty miles. every rod of
which was covered at trot or gallOp.
The girl was riding straight into the
enemys country. and at shutdown she
decided TO go no farther. AS she reach
ed the creek flowing around the east
base of -'Thompson's Fort" which is a
hill standing by itself. she threw her
self Off her tired horse and took a long
drink. and then led the animal to the
crest of the hill. Fortunately for her,
there was a sink or basin at the top,
with many loose rocks lying about. and
in a short time she had done all that a
soldier could have accomplished under
the circumstances. AS the Indians
came up they spread out to encircle
the hill. but kept back out of rifle
range. They had run their quarry to
earth and knew that she could not es-
cape them.

Sentiment and Oxsters.

A fleet of oyster boats on the beach
at Double Hills, in Talbot county,
about twenty-five in number, lis owned
entirely by colored oystermen, who
have got the boats ready for the OPEN
ing of the season on September 1. One
boat, canoe about twenty feet long,
and made out of a single log, is forty
six years old. After patching it up and
painting it, it's owner, Garrison Moore,
has launched it and will use 1T for
ovsterine this season. The ingenuity
displayed by the colored oystermen in
patching up old boats and making
them seaworthy is truly remarkable.
Some of the boats are deliberately
decorated and painted, and bear names
that are derived from sources ranging
all the way from the Greek and Ro-
man classics to the rag time operas of
the present day. The largest and best
boat in the fleet is the Greyhound, of
ninety bushels capacity, and decorated
AFT bow and stern with wood carvings
that indicate the sentimental turn of
its owner. Hearts and oak leaves
scrolled over with the word Love" are
features of this decorative work. One
of the boats is name the Bride.-Balt1-

TO DEFEND THE CUP.
New Workers Expect Another ChaI-
lenge From Upton.

New York, Sept. 2s.-Preparations
are already being made by members
of the New York Yacht club for the
defense of the Americas cup against
a possible fourth challenge from Sir
Thomas Upton. Members of the club
think that a challenge may be expect
ed by a New York mail and that as
in former years it will come from the
Royal Ulster Yacht club. Sir Thomas
has not yet announced that he has
made the necessary arrangements with
a designer, but club members believe
that a challenge is sure to come and
are only waiting to find out what con-
ditions are named bofere going ac-
lively to work to build the defender
1t is the opinion among the mem
bers of the yacht club that when the
challenge comes it will ask for a race
under the same conditions that gov
erned the last one.
According to the deed of gift no
race can be sailed later than November
! and ten months notice must be given
when the challenge is made. A chaI-
lenge received by December 1 would
make the date for the first race Oc-

and they were sixty miles from the
nearest fort. So severe was the storm,
however, that after riding ten miles
they went into hiding in ravine to
wait for change.
1t was 80 hours before the storm
ceased, and the Indians at once began
to scout around to pick up the trail.
The snow lay two feet deep on the
ground, and with the horse carrying
double there seemed no show of eS-
cape. A start was made as soon as the
weather cleared, and the pair had made
a distance of five miles when they look
ed back to see the Indians on their
trail
The same blizzard had caught two
companies of the Seventh cavalry out
on a scout, and they had been compell-
ed to camp in one of the ravines and
wait for the break. The pursuing In
dams were within half mile of the
girl and her brother, and would have
overhauled them in ten minutes more,
when the cavalry suddenly appeared in
view.
There were 80 warriors in the pursu-
ing band, and they were cut off before
they saw the soldiers. When they saw
that escape was hopeless they dis
munted and took cover and put up
good fight. but only one of them lived
to get back to the village, while the
cavalry only had two or three men
wounded on their side. One of the In
dams was killed by the girl herself be-
fore the soldiers got fairly into action.

which he had agreed to settle. and af-
ter compromising as many of them as
possible, were compelled to put their
hands down into their own pockets to

Indirectly his friends have heard that
he intended to leave Colorado and open

confident expectation that he will re-
