A Few Arguments
why it's to your ad-
vantage to buy
Stoves at WATERS

We have nearly 200 stoves
to select from. new and
second hand. By combin-
ing the two large and well
assorted stove stocks it
gives US at present nearly
all the "plumbs" in the
stove trade.
BY buying of Waters you
can see just what you are
getting before you advance
your money. If anything
} goes wrong there is some
, one right at nome to look
} after it-no Grating or ship
: ping back to get it fixed up.
} No freight claims for dam
) age or breakage when you
: buy of Waters.
Stoves can be bought Of
Waters on the payment plan.
!, Mail order stoves seldom
bring much when offered
for sale second hand. They
are usually of little account
after one or two seasons
use.
We're selling less than
our neighbors because we
have an over-stock. We
have discounted all stoves
excepting Round Oak, 10
per cent from the first price.
Our cost of selling stove
does not equal the mail or
ders cost of selling, and for
the same grade of stoves we
can undersell them.

within thirty yards, and reported that ali he
could see was a few sleeping forms. Every
found his protecting rock, and one was put on
guard for the night.
About four O'Clock in the morning the guard on
the Apaches' horses and mules came in for relief.
Ny guard on seeing him, grew anxious and nervous
to the extent of exposing himself. He was dis
covered and a shot followed. This aroused the
entire camp, and in instant all firing. My
scouts prompt to respond and the flashes from
the rifles converted the earlymorning darkness into
blaze of light.
After half an hour I heard voice and caught
some words. | listened keenly and became con-
WINGED that they were Mexican words uttered by
evidently in authority. | commanded the
scouts to cease firing, then asked in a loud voice
if opponents were Mexicans. Yes" the
answer, and they stopped firing. | told them that
we were United States troops. They did not be-
1eve me. We each took the other for Geronimo's
warriors. L Jabbered in bad Mexican lingo but
they understood me, yet mistrusted me, and L
feared treachery. However after time it was
agreed that the leader and should meet halfway
ground So we did and upon seeing each other both
were convinced, and we shook hands asked
about the casualties. Neither had any to report,
although five thousand shots must have been fired.
Fortunately unfortunately, not to
into conflict with Geronimo. We made
circuit of about forty miles, and in due time reached
our lonesome home, the garng rocks of Fort Bowie.
Geronimo had again outw1tted the federal troops
in Arizona, and with braves women and children
had safely landed in deep recess in the heart
of the Sierra Madres. This meant rest for any
at Fort Bowie
Some months passed with little or no excitement.
During this interim our Government made arrange
ments with the Mexican Government by which the
armed troops of the could enter territory of the
other for the suppression of their common foa the
Chiricahua Apaches under Geronimo.
An expedition against this tribe was organ
lied General Crook was the organizer and leader.
All available of the Sixth Cavalry and the
Indian scouts mustered together and with some
three hundred pack-nules loaded with ammunition
and ratons the expedition set out for the rocks of
the PARKWAY Sierras. Geronimo had about two
hundred, and General Crook about six hundred

imagine why they fired upon us, unless they imagined
we had seen them. The trail led near them but
they could have remained in perfect safety where
they were, and we would never have known of their
presence.
This affair had caused us considerable delay, and
we pushed ahead as fast as the trail would permit.
we stu had the day before us, and confident
that by night we would come in conflict with the
main band of which the two dead braves were the
scouts or lookouts for pursuing troops
1t was IN the middle of the afternoon when we
reached the head OF the canon and found ourselves
on the border OF a valley which separated
us from low range of mountains some ten miles
distant AT an elevation of some six thousand feet,
the rare dry air aided the vision, and could plainly
see below the rocks and roughness of the foothills,
on account of which felt the Apaches
encamped Alter passing through that long rough
canon, they must have been fatigued, and besides
they were now far across the border and we'll into
Mexico and there was no reason for them to antic-
1pate an attack from United States troops. | was
certain they would stop to rest and rejoice; so
went INTO camp, concealed from their view, and
slept TIL evening If we had shown ourselves
IN the valley, they would quickly have sought
safer place
AS spread my blanket in the shade of tree,
saw my scouts begin to clean their rifles and
milton This convinced me that they too believed
the Apaches to be in camp just across the valley.

path. 1t was here that new rebellion
fomented in the brain of the willy old Chief he
1olled in the shade after the last outbreak. Only
brief period elapsed before he and his two hundred
braves with their squawS and papooses, started on
a mission of vengeance, the final desperate
sally but one in his blood-marked career.
In the dead of night, while the guardian soldlery
drowsed, the Indians crept forth. When they left
the elias banks they divided into two bands.
They used gun and knife and tomahawk with vgor,
and behind them stretched two red trails into
Mexico.
At the first information from the San Carlos
agency to army headquarters at Prescott the tele-
graph wires to all posts began to hum. We at Fort
Bowie were among the first to receive orders. The
message read
Rafferty, and his troops proceed the north, and
Blake and his scouts to the south Cut the trails and
follow them with all possible speed.
Within hour Captain Rafferty, his way
to the north and to the south The Indians were
reported on the northern side of the San Simon
Valley and the southern side of the Sulphur Spring
Valley, and station, Fort Bowie, lay midway

trail and followed it in all haste; but the Apaches,
having good lead, crossed the Mexican border and
reached the Sierra Madre Mountains in safety

we were pushing ahead, and at about nine O'Clock

and moccasin tracks | felt relieved and jubilant;
for knew that could make a neck and neck race,
or at the worst come out a good second with the
Madres. The direction of the trail indicated that
the Apache had passed close to many miners homes,
and that many peopleha probably been slaughtered.
We crossed the southern extension of the Chiri-
cahui Mountains, then narrow valley, and camped
in the foothills of the Guadalupe Mountains Dark
forced to halt till daylight because the trail
could no longer be seen We were not far behind.
The clean-cut tracks and the freshly settled dust
were sufficient proof of this. We felt that within
the next twenty-four hours rifles must play
their part
When awakened at the break of day I felt re-
freshed Within few minutes were keen

had worried along the rocky path for about two
hours, when were brought to a sudden stand

crept along with some of the scouts in advance.
These began firing, and the canon was soon in
an uproar of echoes. From hole in the rocks on
the opposite side l the smoke from two rifles,
which explained the shots that had SO startled us.
Soon all the scouts, protected by bouders
firing into the hole, thinking that of the bullets
might glance and take effect. The rifles in the hole
were kept busy for about half an hour, when they
ceased to report. The scouts, however, continued
