halting for moment, making seven

The following account of the arri-
val of Merritt, and the situation Of
affairs he found awaiting him, is
from the pen of one of his staff:
I'VE arrived with General Mer-
ritt's command Sunday morning at
$50, after march of seventy-flve
miles yesterday, stopping to rest on
ly half an hour. What n happy
crowd Payne's command was when
Merritt reached them! They had been
entrenched for six days. Captain
Payne was still in command, Lieut..
Paddock was wounded in the side.
Colonel Dodge, with Company F, of
the Ninth cavalry, arrived Thursday.
He fought his way in. There was
a horrible stencil all around. Wound
ed men were hobbling in every direc-
tion. One hundred and fifty dead
horses, lying about thirty feet from
the entertainments, presented hor-
rible spectacle"

Missed Their Date

As our readers know, the Central

advertised to appear at Meeker last
Saturday evening, did not show up.
The following communication par

failed to keep its engagement at
Meeker:
DENVER, December 5th.

iMeeker, Colorado.
Dear Sir:
Upon receiving your wire ! at once
tried TO get into communication with
the C,sntral Grand Concert company

lie was, but ! could get no reply un-
til too late to be Of any service to
you.
find that the company has missed
one other date besides yours, which
date WAS previous to yours.
will not know just what the diff
culty is until j receive letter from
he company; but judging from the
wires have received from 1t, and
troubles have previously had with
1t, the members seem to be typical
artists" and one hardly knows
what to expect of them.
Iregret very much this disappoint-
ment to you and loss to me. How
ever, can give you as substitute
The Houstons. They have n large
amount of baggage, which we will
have to make arrangements to get
over to Meeker.
/ am satisfied that the HOustons
will give you much better satisfac-
tion than the Central Grand, rs my
report from the latter's work has
been that 1t is too classical and shoots
over the heads of the people. This
las even been the case in a great
many large cities.
Kindly let me know at once II you
can use the Houstons. The date of
their appearance there would be
about December 9th or 2sth.
Yours truly,
f. ID. HAWKINS.
Mr.. MOulton, who has been acting
for the local committee, which ar
ranged for the series Of musical and
dramatic entertainments to be given
in Meeker this winter, was consider
ably annoyed over the non-appear-
ance Of the Central Grand company,
but the mix-up will probably come
out all right, as the Houston's above
mentioned was the attraction origi-
nally selected by the committee.

1000 o'clock, Gen. Merritt and his
force left Rawlins to relieve the
Thornburgh troops, which, after the
killing of Major Thornburgh, were
commanded by Captain Payne. The
troops covered fifty miles on the first
days march and sixty the next. They
arrived at the place where the be-
leagured troops were fighting for
their lives early Sunday morning,
October 5th, after having covered
close to seventy miles Of rough coun-
try during the third days march.
There are few such marches on re-
cord in the annals of the American
or any other army, and it was only
because the Merritt command WAS
composed of seasoned veterans who
had seen years Of rough campaign
ing against the Indians on the west
ern plains that they were able to COW
er 80 much ground in such short
time.
Gen. Merritt and his force arrived
on the scene none too soon, as the
small force, under constant fire from
the Indians on the surrounding hills,
cut of from food, surrounded by the
reeking bodies OF scores Of dead hOrs-
es which had been shot in the first
attack, would not have been able to
hold out much longer. The original
force under Major Thornburgh had
been ordered to march to the Meeker
agency when reports were received
that trouble was brewing. They did
not know that Agent Meeker, who
had tried to treat the Indians as
Sunday school children who could be
made to behave if told to do 80, with
all Of his assistants had been lnassa-
cred by the Utes.
Unaware of the danger, Major
Tbornburgh marched toward the
agency. About twenty five miles
from his destination he was surround
ed by force of Utes outnumbering
his own force almost three to one.
The commanding officer was killed
in the first attack and it was only by
hastily seeking cover that the entire
detachment was saved from annihi-
lation.
Captain Dodge, with a small COM
papy of colOred cavalry, succeeded
In getting through the Indian lines
to aid the ambushed troops, but the
numbers were SO small that they ad-
ded little to the strength Of the party,
and the merciless Indians who
crowded the hills, picking of man
at time, were confident Of COM
pletely exterminating the little band,
when they were surprised by ihe un-
expected arrival of General Merritt,
after his record-breaking march from
Rawlins.
In speaking Of the march Of Cen
eral Merritt and the relief Of the lit
tie band of soldiers, the Arkansas
Valley History Of Colorado says:

Seven cars of horses and eight cars
of machinery and tools have just
been unloaded at New Castle for the
construction of the new railroad to
Meeker and Salt Lake. The COM
pany expects to have the twenty
miles of track to Piceance creek com
pleted by spring. The road will con-
meet with the Midland at New Cas-
tie, and this leads to the belief that
Hill, the railroad king, has something
to do with the construction of the
road.-Rifie Reveille.
The Salt Lake Tribune, from avail
able information, believes that there
is no question about the Meeker-Salt
Lake railroad building through this
country, and states that before spring
official announcement will be made
of the proposed route and that other
information regarding the company
will be given to the public.-Duchesne

active season for New Castle and that
ere the year 1911 has advanced be-
yond the midway point several miles

into Meeker from this point will be
ready for the ties, rails and rolling
stock.
Messrs. Grant 5. Green and Sher-
man Smith, two well-known con-
tractors who have just completed ex-
tensive reservoir and ditch work near
Denver, have accepted contract
from the Meeker-R -Rangefy Construct
ion company, chief contractors for
the new road. and are already here
to begin operations. A carload of
horses was unloaded last Tuesday
night, and shipment of grading
tools was also to get here at that time,
but it has for some reason not yet
learned been delayed In transit. Two
more cars of horses are to arrive
either Sunday or Monday evening,
when u permanent camp will be es-
tablished at or near Davis point, five
miles west of New Castle.
Several officials of the new railway
company are to be here on Monday,
when, with the chief engineers di-
rection, the initial work on the new
line of road will be decided upon.
1t is reported that funds are already
in hand for thirty miles of the road,
and further funds will be ready at
an early date.-New Castle Demo-
