SOLDIERS BOOTS SAVED HIM
How Member of a Wagon Train
Made Thrilling Escape From
Band of Savage Indians.

At Fort Kearney, before our train
started up the Platte river for Fort
Laramie in the summer of 1867, each
driver that needed boots drew a pair
from the government store. When
Peter Small's "a little fellow turn
came to select his boots all the small
er sizes had been drawn, and the near
est his fit was a pair two sizes too big
for him, but he concluded to take
them, as he was about barefooted, and
no chance to get any more till we got
through.
Our train consisted of seven wagons
loaded with supplies for the post, six
mules to the team, and we were es-
corted by ten soldiers to protect us
against possible attacks by Indians,

Wash. in the National Tribune. Each

Does the State Save Money?


How much does Ohio save by light
ing state institutions from the peni-
tentiary power plant? A preliminary
report, covering the flve months end
ing May 80, shows paper credit Of
S12,031.50. This money credits to the
manufacturing fund at the peniten-
tiary and debts the accounts of the
statehouse, school for deaf, school for
blind, the penitentiary and the new
state bindery But to find the exact
saving to the state is an involved prob
lem of mathematics, admittedly be-
yond the clerks of the state board Of
administration. The state paid all the
way from 2.67 cents to A cents for cur
rent 1t made some and it bought
some. Now it has been paying itself
at the rate of 21a cents and immediate
ly will cut its rate to itself to cents
on the showing made. The problem Is
still further complicated by the fact
that at some institutions steam that
was used to generate current also was
used to heat buildings. Some of this
steam still must be generated, but the
amount of coal consumed is less. Ev-
eryone is agreed that the state is saw
ing money, but just how much is not
clear.

Case eafned physicians.

DR.. l.. NJ. Early is dead from can
Ger. His case has baffied physicians
of the entire world. He offered $1,000
09G for a cure, but in vain. When
Roentgen first discovered the X-ray,
DR.. Early began to experiment with it.
He used it successfully in the treat
ment of many cases of cancer. But
the early and imperfect X-ray machine
did not afford the operator sufficient
protection. The X-ray which he was
using to cure cancers caused him to
have cancers which it could not cure.
While still experimenting wiki the
X-ray, Dr. Early discovered how to
make new Photographic paper, and
a company bought his discovery from
himself and two partners for $3,0O0,-
900. The cancers first manifested
themselves on DR.. Earlys hand. His
fingers, then his hand, and finally his
arm, bit by bit, were removed. The
disease was arrested, but not eradi-
Gated.

Mo- Prlsoners For State Roads.

NO Prisoners For state Roads. H
It begins to look as though tho plan
to employ prisoners at manual labor
on state aid roads would fall through,
and in connection with the movement
the state may have gotten "in bad"
on some road contracts. After d.
recting the state highway commits
sioner to award contracts with the
condition in them that the state was
to furnish the manual labor, the state
board of administration concluded
that 1t was hardly fair for the state
to contribute the labor in addition TO
the financial aid that Is given under
the highway act, and the county get
all the benefit of 1t. 1t was, therefore,
proposed that the counties should sub
sist and shelter the prisoners while
engaged at the work. That PROPOSE
ton was made to the commissioners of
Carroll county, in which two road con-
tracts have been lei, with the prison
manual labor condition in them: They
we're unwilling to do this, expressing
the sentiment of the people of the
county when they said that IL the
county had to pay out money on the
prisoner proposition, 1t would prefer
to pay it out direct to its own laborers,
and not indirectly for prison labor.
There was a conference in the gov
ernor's Office between members Of the
board of administration, State High
way Commissioner ]. R. Marker and
the governor. Gov. Harmon, while
much desiring that arrangements be
made for the employment of prisoners
in road-making, insisted that the coun-
ties in which they were employed
should shelter and feed the prisoners
while SO engaged. Meantime, the con-
tractors have their tools and equip
ment on hand and are unable to go to
work. One contractor complained to
the state highway commissioner that
he was out 5000 on a freight charge
for tools, etc., and was losing $1O0 q
day.

They Were Calming on Him Rapidly.
iriver was furnished an army rife
and ammunition by the government.
We had been out a week. when one
afternoon about four o'clock we
samped on small stream called Sand
creek.
Up to that day we had seen no
signs of Indians, so Pete, as we called
him, concluded to go out on the high
prairie and see If he could kill an
antelope and have some fresh meat.
de took his old Enfield rife and few
cartridges, and struck out north across
the creek. He had gone about half
mile when he noticed over on another
ridge, about half mile away, what at
jrst he took to be drove of ante
Iopes, but on looking closer he saw
they were in Indians-ten of them.
They were dismounted and stood be-
hind their ponies, and their heads only
appearing above their backs.
AS soon as he had made sure that
they were Indians he turned and
started for camp. When the Indians
saw that their decoy to draw him
nearer to them failed, they sprang
upon their ponies and came pell-mell
after him. 1t was race for life
with the odds against him. They were
gaining on him rapidly with their
Eeet-footed ponies, and he saw thai
they would soon overtake him unless
he could devise some way to hold
them in check.
| He thought as he ran along with his
loaded gun that 1t would not do to
shoot at them, however tempting the
mark, for the instant his rifle was dis
charged they would pounce upon him,
and his scalp would be hanging to
one of their belts in no time So he
watched over his shoulder. and when
they got near enough to begin shoot
ing at him with their arrows (they
had no guns) he stopped, turned and
leveled his rife as if to pick one off,
and they instantly checked their
steeds and hung over on the opposite
side of their ponies; then Pete whirled
around and ron for dear life again, and
before the Indians could get their
ponies up to full speed he had gained
q little on them, and when they closed
up agoin he repeated the tactics.
When he reached the creek opposite
the camp, where water was about Il
feet wide and foot deep, undertake
with treacherous quicksand, Pete hesi
tated not a moment. but gathered al
the strength that was In him anC
leaped as far towards the other banl
as he could. He struck about foul
feet from the farther shore, and sanl
to his waist in water and quicksand.
The Indians rushed up and com
menced to shoot at him. One arrow
struck his hat and knocked 1t off. HI,
twisted around and raised his rifle a,
II to shoot, and the Indians dodget
behind their ponies. Then Pete, will

Woman,s Week 50 Hours LONG.

A woman's work-day week begins
Sunday and ends on Saturday. So
ruled Justice e. w. Mccormick in the
case of Joe Baumlin, restaurant keep
er, who was charged by the state de-
partment of workshops and factories
with violating the women's nine;hour
law. The state construed the statute
to mean that a woman can not be en-
ployed more than 54 hours in six con-
secutive days, whether the week cor
responded with the calendar week or
not. Mr.. Baumlin had worked a wom-
an, it was alleged, more than "a hours
in six consecutive days. Fifty-four
hours is the limit for one week, 10
hours for one day. The state will not
test the point in the higher courts
