New York.-The struggles of men
and women Of America to win the title
OF society leader of this country, which
In this connection is New York, has
for years been as bitter and as earn
est as any of the intrigues of the old
court. In the endeavor to be
acknowledged by the so-called Four
Hundred as the local head of gay
functions, millions of dollars have
been spent, plots and counter.plots
Matched, and finally such sensational
ism resorted to as have made the
names of Ward McAuister and Harry
Lehr known. Each succeeding year
has seen some new candidate enter
the field for the coveted honor, and
each year has seen new exploits which
have fairly taken the breath away
from the great mass of people who
look on and laugh or wonder.
For a good many years now. ever
since the death of Mrs. Paran Stevens,
in fact, Mrs. William Astor has I'm.
doubleday been supreme. Lesser
lights have shone for a few seasons,
perhaps, but their brilliancy has been
only, that of the planets in the light
OF the moon. Mrs. Astor has been in
reality the balance wheel which has
kept the social machine moving stead

Nothing in. American history is OF
greater interest or furnishes us more
romance and adventure during our
early days than the struggles of the
civilization of the east as it advanced
into the Indian lands Of the west.
Among these historic battles that of
Bushy Run stands out prominently.
The settlers along the western from
tier had hoped for peace at the close
of the French and Indian war, and
theirs would probably not have been
a vain hope but for that greatest of
Indian leaders, Pontiac. His elo-
quence brought all the tribes of the
western border together for one
mighty blow at the white settlers. At
the first blow struck all the forts OF
the frontier except Niagara, Detroit
and Pitt fell, and it is with the relief
of the latter that we have to deal.
Fort Pitt was recognized as an i'm
portant strategic point, and it was
determined to send an expedition
from the east for it's relief. Col
Henry Bouquet, brave Swiss, but
serving the British king, was chosen
to the command. He started with
about 600 men, the remnants of two
regiments just returned from an ex
hausting service in the West Indies
and added about 100 rifemen to his
force on the way.
The soldiers were so broken by
their arduous and wearing service il
the tropics that they were fit only fol
garrison duty, and before the jour
ney was completed so of them had tt

circumstances favorable for his coup.
The hill was cut on one side by ra-
vine. Some distance to one side OF
this the main attack finally centered
on two companies of Highlanders. The
commander communicated to his men
what he expected them to do, and all
at once the two companies gave way
and fell back rapidly, as if in retreat.
Other men partially closed the gap, as
if trying to cover the retreat.
The Indians, thinking they had the
whites on the run, broke from them
cover with yells of triumph and
poured into the open. The defenders
checked them for time until the
Highlanders could wheel into the ra-
vine unseen and form for a fanking
attack, and two companies could be
swung around on the other side for
a like purpose. Then the defending
force seemed to be giving way, and
the Indians, with tomahawks uplifted,
swarmed into the central space, free
from the cover of the woods Sudden
ly terrific fire poured in upon them
from three sides, and they were
moved down by the score.
Their yells of triumph were now
changed to bowls of alright, and in a
perfect rout they deserted the field
and their dead and wounded. The
whites followed them for time, to
give the impression of vigorous pur-
suit, though they were too far spent
to go far. The Indians left more than
go of their warriors dead on the field,
and bloody trails showed that many
more had been wounded.
The victory was complete, being
nothing less than the defeat OF the
forces that had been besieging Fort
Pitt for weeks. The Indians did not
attempt to renew the siege, but re-
tired beyond the Ohio. Fort Pitt was
saved and the oversweeping tide Of
savage invasion was turned back, saw
Ting a thousand miles Of border from
| total destruction.
