what about the Cayuse war and
how many Indians did you down in
an engagements" was one of the ques-
tions asked. at is long story, but
remember we'll an engagement that
led to the capture and later the death
of Chief Pepe (MuX- MuX), head of the
troublesome and tricky Cayuse tribe.
1t was on or about Dec. I, 1856.
About 400 of us we're at old Fort Walla
Walla and 200 of us struck across the
hills horseback and encountered large
bands of Indians. The Indians came
directly to us, but had hoisted white
flag, messenger announcing they
wanted to talk with us. Old Pepe said
he had heard Of our coming and had
ordered five big fat cattle to be slaugh-
tered and roasted and all were invited
for supper. The chief and about eight
of his men stayed with us and the
others rode off. We were led along a
trail passed under high cliff of per
pendicular rocks, leaving room for
Just one no semen. Across the creek
was thicket of brush. Nat Olney
saw the trick and we came to halt.
We found tons of rocks above that the
Indians had placed and intended to
massacre us all and il we had passed on
the trail not one would have been left
to have told tho tale. We went over
the bluff but failed TO find any roast
ed cattle or any sign of barbecue.

shook his head and replied: "Klonass

FAMED AS AN
INDIAN FIGHTER

Little did the pioneers who crossed
the Columbia river In '56 dream that
Skamania county would become one
of the great counties in Washington.
How it must have thrilled the sturdy
explorers as they crossed the noun
tains and gazed down the slopes to
the Columbia and White Salmon.
One of the very first to cross over
and identify himself with the country
and suffer all the privations and
hardships and enjoy all the beautiful
surroundings was Amos Underwood,
who is now dean of the city Of Under
wood.
He crossed the plains with an OK
team and settled in Oregon near The
Dalles. During the early sos when
the Cayuse Indians we're on the war
path he enlisted with Company b, Or
egon volunteers and was one of the
prominent Indian fighters of his day.
He came out Of the war with dis
tinction and since his residence in
Washington learned to know the In
dian well and has been responsible In
many instances of settling differences
without trouble. The Indian learned

off, the red devils waving the scalps
of our comrades. In many instances
it was a hand to hand fight. In an
effort on the part Of the Indians. to
get their chief most all we're killed.
Olney who had rode on ahead heard
the shooting and came back, and kill
ed Old Pepe, saying, you old rascal,

had attempted to murder Olney about
six weeks before on the beef game.
That was the end of Old Pepe. | was
said to be one of the best shots If not
the crack in the regiment. | shot
away one engagement 60 bullets and
only got FIVE Indians.
The old man who has celebrated his
10th birthday and who is now In the
evening of his life, fires up when re-
calling the stirring days of the SOS.
The coming OF the railroad seemed to
be occupying his attention more than
the days Of warfare.
Mr.. Underwood has 40 acres in
Klickitat county and 36 acres In Ska
mania. He recently sold most of his
holdings to the lumber company thus
giving them the right down the White
Salmon. One year ago he placed on the
market town site and since then h

to regard AZ we'll as fear him. They
discovered that no was determined,
yet fair and square and that Is why
they pinned their faith In him.
Il. A. Wood of Portland, late grand
commander of the Indian War veter-
ans, of the Pacific Northwest, and
who was member of Mr.. Under
woods company, states that to his
knowledge, "Amos Underwood made
more good Indians than any of the
rest of us." He left Ohio, the state
of his berth, strong and was deter
mined to explore the west. He
stopped In Iowa but 1t was too SLOW
he wanted to push on, and that deter
mination will result In hourishing
little city on the Columbia, called I'm
derwood, that will stand as mOnu-
ment to his pluck and the generations
to come will be told who Anne Under
wood was and what an important part
he played in civilizing the natives and
in many instances making good In
dians out of them.
"rhose who have known Ame I'm
derwood for years, p" writes Mr.. Wood,
"when looking into his kindly face
would never suspect that he adopted
the methods of warfare of the savages
and beat them at their own game.
But the time required just such men
as Amos Underwood and his associates
In the Oregon volunteers and their
methods of warfare. Their work at
that time caused the Indians to respect
the white man and made lasting
peace that could not have been CON
quered by any more lenient meas
ures. "
There Ia no more interesting person
on the Washington side to converse
with than Amos Underwood. He Is a
man Of "A good education considering
the time when he was youth the
boys we're fighting instead Of pouring
over school books. On certain oooa-
sions you find him in u reminisoential
mood and he will spin ''yarn" that
is interesting indeed and causes the
hair to rise.
On several occasions the newspapers
have sent correspondents to get "a
story" of the old Indian fighter,
and he Is always polite and courteous
and no one Is ever disappointed II he
gets started. The correspondent for
the Glaicer found him freshE from

UnderHoOd's Big store,

On April /, Smith & Clark took
possession of the store at Underwood.
Myson s. Smith had for many years
been connected with the Wind River
store and the general merchandising
was nothing new TO him. He had been
a resident of Cascade Locks for many
years. Associated with him 10 w. L.
Clark, superintendent Of the govern
ment property at the Locks. He is
well known and has many friends.
Soon after the new firm took hold
and so much new territory was open
cd by reason of the new road and
bridge that spans the river, an addi-
tion was placed on the rear of the
building in the shape of warehouse
for the -four and feed department.
The telephone exchange is in the
store and Mr.. Smith has just been
made postmaster and is adding new
fixtures for the postOfiice, renting
boxes and fixing it up In true city
style.
The stock is complete in every re-
spect including dry goods, groceries,
boots and shoes, clothing, notions,
etc. Both members of the firm have
great confidence in the future of the
country and are doing everything to
promote the best interests of the To-
cality.

his large acreage, He has thus afford
cd much work to the other ranchers
who were not so fortunately situated,
and has allowed them an opportunity
of clearing, too.
There Is general regret among the
ranchers because MIR. Jones has decid-
ed to return to his native hearth, ow-
ing to the duties involving his bust
ness affairs. He has offered for sale
this magnificent farm, arranged and
improved to the very highest notch.
MIR. Jones bought the tract because 1t
appealed to him as one of the widest
tracts he had hunted over, and he
cleared 1t of its wild beasts, and then
transformed the wilderness into per
feet garden.
There IL every comfort, beautiful
home, and all the comforts, such as
one would expect to find, arranged by
a person of wealth and culture follow
ing pronounced hobby to enjoy life.
Mr.. Jones, other than perfect gen
tleman, is a thorough sportsman. He
has one of the finest kennels in tire
west, II not In the states. He takes
great pride In caring for the game,
and has been one Of the enthusiasts
In stocking the streams with fish fry,
He has remarkable record as a
marksman, and Mrs. Jones has to her
credit several bears, while Master
Jones, aged IL years, slew his first
bear not many weeks ago. So the

DELIGHTFUL PICNIC PARTY.
West Durham Episcopal Sunday-school
With Superintendent w. "A. Er-
win Spend the Day Here.

There was one of the pleasantest
picnics and one of the incest parties
of the season here Saturday at the
picnic given to the Episcopal Sunday
school of West Durham by the super
intendent, Mr.. w. A. Erwin. the
children were delighted with Raleigh.
The party of nearly 100. many of
them small children, the girls being
largely in the majority, came from
West Durham in a special car. In
charge of the party was Mr.. Erwin,
and with him were some of the teach
ers, Mrs Percy Brown, Miss Martha
Cowan. Miss Viola Gunter.
At Pullen Park the children en-
ioyed a delightful day. viewing the
animals there, romping and frolicking
in the beautiful grove. Some enjoyed
the pleasures of the swimming pool,
and all We're delighted with the PIC
mic dinner, which was SerVey by MI
A. Dughi, Raleigh's popular catreer.
During the meal there was violin
music. this being special courtesy
to the children, rendered by MISS
Helen Smedes and Miss Emily Rose
Knox. OF this city, friends of Mr.. Err
) win. Mr.. John L. Pullen, of this
city. was present by invitation and
| made a most valuable and entertain
ing talk to the children. after which
he gave each a dainty picture card
as souvenir.
The day was an entirely happy one
at the park and in the afternoon as
the children passed through the city
on the street cars on their way to
the depot they attracted much ia
vorable attention. so neat, so sweet
and so well behaved were they The
Sunday-school in West Durham, of
which Mr.. Erwin is the superintend-
ent, can well claim to be one of the
best in the State.
At the depot Mr.. Erwin had the
children in line as the afternoon train
came in, and in a remarkably quick
time all were on board. Mr.. Erwin had
some difficulty IN getting orders to
have the regular morning train stop
near Pullen Park to let the children
disembark, but these were finally
given when Mr.. Erwin promised to
have this done in one minute. The
time ne really took was forty seconds.
and the children left in a most or
DERBY manner
