| at Camp Watson. Such news always
| brought that stirring call.
Thanksgiving thoughts were laid
| aside; they would have to keep for
another year. Capt. Boutelle's troop
ers were quickly mounted. Their
trailer was Donald Mckay, whose
| grandfather was John Jacob Astor's
partner, and his grandmother prin-
| cess of Concomly's Chinook tribe.
Away went the troopers just as the
westering sun went behind a cloud
which broadened and blackened and
soon began to patter down in rapid
| raindrops.
1t was to be a swift pursuit and a
sudden striking Of the enemy, and so
every trooper Travelled light, except as
| to ammunition, which was $50 rounds
| to the man. And big 5O-caliber cart
rides they were in those days.
Not a. superfuous ounce was car
ried on the horses; there was no pack
train, no impediments; merely few
hardtacks stuck into saddle pockets
comprised the commissary; the enc
i It was dark when the troopers
| stumbled onto the trail. And how it
rained! Every man was soaking wet.
Every rock was afoat. The prance
had evaporated from the horses, and
| they stuck close to the trail, tails
| tucked under All night they stuck
| to it, and covered many miles.
A good trailer was Donald Mckay,
and the footballs of his trained cayuse
| told him in the dark the kind OF
tracks he was stepping in. Where a
| small party of the hostiles had
branched off to the northwest Donald
knew their number and guessed their
| object.
Silently the pursuit continued. Day
| light could not be much further away
than over the next divide. Suddenly
in the darkness just ahead, what was
that? The yelp of a coyote? If so,
it would soon be followed by chorus.
No. It was the bark Of the coyotes
close cousin, an Indian dog.
Soon it was followed by another
bark and bang! A bullet tipped past
the troopers.
Then came the defiant war whoop,
telling that the Indians had put none
hit Americans on guard that night,
and that the warriors were stirring
and ready to meet the United States,
tho great nation with whom they were
at war.
Quickly the troopers accommodated
them. There were volleys from both
eides a dashing cavalry charge
through the camp, reassembling by
bugle call on the other side, and
another rush through.
It was blind business in the dark,
but the Indians gave shot for shot as
they scattered around in the sage
brush and posted themselves in ra-
vines.
AS daylight came, the troopers
closed in on the camp, and what
warriors remained in it died defiant
The camp was a medley OF willow
mole wickiups and alternating wind
breaks shaped like the modern hats
worn by women. When the soldiers
/ got full possession they rather ignored
| the scattering shots that came from
the ravines, for they would rather hive
| the bees that were left than kill them.
| And they knew that the bulk of the
| women and pappooses had escaped to
| the ravines. The firing showed that

the hostiles' strength had been re.
duced. So had the number of troop
ers, and the wounded horses, unable
to respond to the bugle call, neighed
pitifully from where they had gone
down in the charge.
The wounded were being looked
after and their misery eased where
that seemed possible, when Donald
| Mckay took the floor, and, in stentor-
ian tones and Snake dialect, told the
hostiles they had better cease firing
| and surrender; otherwise the soldiers
would kill the last one of them.
A defiant answer came rolling back,
and just then an Indian woman hold
ing up baby rushed toward the sol
diers, saying she would surrender to
save her child A shot followed from
the gulch she had left, and her own
husband became her murderer. He
was stalking out to secure the baby
when bullet from McKay's carbine
ended his career. This baby boy was
afterward raised by a pioneer cattle
man named AltnOw, and became the
most expert vaQuero on the great Pine
Creek Range.
After twenty-minute parley the
hOstiles were given their choice of
determination or surrender, and final
ly chose the latter. Sulkily they came
into camp, what was left of them,
thirty warriors with guns, while as
many more lay dead and dying around
the camp. Dead soldiers were there,
too, six of them, and ten wounded.
Swapping fellows in the very flower
of youth, laid low on that Thanksgiv-
ing morning, a sad sacrifice to the
cruel war waged in the winning of
the West.
A sorry-loOking camp it was, but
there was meat in it, for the Indians
Heppner's mules, and they had several
sacks of dried crickets and cowse and
camas, and a little flour stolen at An
telope. And this was all they had to
offer the guests who had intruded on
them.
But where Indians can live, soldiers
can exist, and the late Thanksgiving
breakfast was nearly over when
"Gobble! Gobble! Goblet"
Those were the words which came
from the adjoining sage brush, and
quickly Capt. Waters had surrounded
the sound and brought in a big gobbler
that the Indians had staked out. One
Of his tail feathers, painted white,
caused him to be recognized as a for
mer resident of the Clarno ranch,
which nestled under the shadows of
the high Cold Camp country. The boy
Frank Clarno had painted the feather,
and soldiers passing there had no.
ticed it.
That turkey furnished feast for
those forty troopers that Thanksgiv-
ing morning. There were no cram
berries, but a sage hen was inserted
into his interior for favoring, and he
was Drowned on the embers, and there
was a taste for several and a Whit of
the fragrance for all. There was one

Parliamentary Mud Flinging.

The Australian labor members are
distinguishing themselves as parlia-
mentary phrasemakers. Mr.. Prender-
CAST, the member for North Melbourne
and the leader of the Labor party in
the parliament of Victoria, has charac-
terized a colleague, who interjected a
remark while he was speaking, as an
"alcoholized epileptic freak" which is
a distinct contribution to the litera-
ture of legislative scurrility. After
some demur, he withdrew and apollo
gized.-Pall Nal Gazette.

FRONTIER THANKSGIVING
Only One Gobb1er for Forty Hungry Troopers to
Make Feast Of

The india-rubber bumpers of the
modern railroad coach have erased
the American frontier. But it existed
only a few years ago on Oregon's
eastern edge. There the American
soldier, which economical Congresses
doled out in such homeopathic guam
titles, opened up the trails and made
it possible for settlers and hand cars
to occupy the right of way. Wild
country there is there still, from the
mythical Malheur to the outstretching
Ochoco, but interspersed are modern
towns, whose electric glare has scared
away the jack rabbit, the antelope and
the Indian.
''Boots and saddles!"
What stirring strains were those
bugle notes as they echoed and re-
echoed up the canons and through
the tall tamaracks at Camp Watson,
a typical frontier post whose barrack
buildings were of solid logs, located
in the part of the beautiful Blue noun
tains where the hostile Snake Indians
ranged and disputed with CORY hand
the advances of the white man.
The little garrison at Camp Watson
had had hard work all the fall hunt
ing hostiles far and away even to the
Owyhee, and now looked forward
with keen appreciation to Thanksgiv-
ing day, which the next sun-up would
bring, and the frontier feasting it
would bring with it.
''It will be to all the boys at least
a taste of home and mother" said
Major w. V. Rinehart, post command
er, as he instructed Lieutenant Tom
| Hand to tighten labor and give his
men all possible liberty.
So the company game hunters had
been out on the nearby ridges and
brought in dozens of big, fat grouse,
three deer and an elk, and the COM
pany cooks had given it out that they
would try their hands on mince pies
| provided some cOmmissary fire-Water
were rustled up for f1avoring.
Everything looked promising for q
| fine feast.
But the two hunters who had
brought in the elk also brought the
news that half mile away they had
found the fresh tracks of an Indian
pony, and the telltale sign showed
that his rider had been spying about
Camp Watson. The tracks, two miles
away, joined the trail of large party
which had headed southwest. In the
| trail were the familiar footprints of
many mules.
Then dashed into camp young Fred
Wilmarth, whose tough cayuse had
| brought him from Fort Dalles, more
than a hundred miles away, with the
news that the hostile Snakes had raid
ed down the John Day and captured
horses at the Maupin and Clarno
ranches, and burned Jim Clarhe's
| house.
| Those wild Indians were making
history, for that spot is now marked
Burnt Ranch" on the maps of the
| world
The rough-riding raid of the Snakes
had been very successful, for at Mud
| dy Creek they had captured Henry
| Heppners entire train Of pack mules,
and that energetic pioneer had to fort
up in the rocks, and after escaping
with his scalp and reaching The
Dalles, had to begin business all over
! again.

Turkey Our Proper National Emblem.

By right of American citizenship
the turkey should have been our ma
tional emblem. Tt should have been
emblazoned upon our twenty-dollar
gold pieces in place of the bird of

Our forefathers, better imitators than
originators, accepted the eagle of the
Old World as our ensign at the mo-
ment when the American turkey was
