JUNl STORY OF
HIS CAPTIVITY
LATE BENEDICT JUNI'S TALL;
OF SEVEN WEEKS AMONG
THE INDIANS.

As the Homecoming celebra ton
draws near, stories told by the pioneers
of the days we are commemorate ting, are
being revived. The adventures of the
late Benedict Juni prove to be one of
the most interesting narratives of the
days of '62. 1t is matter of deep
regret that, as one of the pioneers who
are ever accorded places of honor in a
celebration of this kind, he cannot be
with us for this one, and those of us
whose hearts are filled with gratitude
for the brave pioneers, realize how in
complete the celebration will be with
out him. "
As lad of eleven, Mr.. Juni exhibited
much bravery and precocious sagacity
in his adventures with the Indians,
learning, meanwhile, great deal of
Indian life and character. His father
at the time of the uprising occupied
farm between Beaver Falls and
Morton and about five miles north of
the Lower Agency. The elder Juni
dealt a good deal with the Indians,
knew something of their language and
had their confidence.
On Aug. 18, 1862, while the ia amily
was seated at the breakfast table, a
noise so Unusual that it caused COM
ment was at intervals heard in the
direction of the lower agency. They
thought it was the beating of drums
announcing the arrival of a detach-
ment of soldiers. In reality it was the
first volleys fired by the Indians at
the defenseless whites. The previous
day having been Sunday, the work
ing oxen belonging to Mr.. Juni had
been left at large. Young Benedict
mounted the only horse and brought
them in. His father was just hitching
them to a wagon when the nearest
neighbors John and Mike Hayden,
and the latter's wife, approached the
Juni place in great haste and said
that the Indians were on the war path.
The elder Juni was disinclined to take
it seriously, but yielding to the plead
ings of the women, took the hayrack
off the wagon, replaced the box
hurriedly, threw in some clothing,
bedding and provisions, and put the

PIONEER VI e. Times
PENNSYLVANIA HOUSE., ONE OF
THE EARLIEST BUILDINGS
ALONG MINNESOTA ST.

The Pennsylvania House which
stood where the Masonic Block is now
situated was erected in 1857. It was
originally two story frame building
and was used as warehouse by
August Won Claim, a specula tor, who
was commonly known as .''Pantoffel
Fritz
The second story. was a large hall
and was used as a sort of inn and
lodging place for the immigrants that
arrived by stea mboat.
Later a man by the name of Kahl-
feldt used the rooms to the right hand
side corner, as a general store where
everything that was needed in the
pioneer days could be purchased. In
the year 1853 John c., Toberer had his
first repair shop and jewelry store in
this building. From 1859 to 1868,
Gropper and. Claussen had a black
smith and repair shop. on the first
floor including the part which had
previously been occupied by Mr.:
Kahlfeldt. =.
It was in the old Pennsylvania
house that Captain w. B. Dodd died
from the effects of wounds received
when he made charge on horseback
beyond the barricades on South Min
nesota street. His horse was killed
and he was brought mortally wounded
to the Pennsylvania house where he
died. 1t was also in. the blacksmith
shop of .Gropper and Claussen, that
the camoufage cannon consisting of
an anvil and some stove pipes was
prepared.
| For. a number Of, years the second
story was used as dance hall and here
also amateur theatrical performances
were given. III
Johann Laudenschalger purchased
the property in 1864 and used it, as a
hardware store and tin shop. Some
years later the store was moved to the
Laudenschlager building on Mime
I:sota and 1st South street. Mr.. Laud-
l'enschlager used the Pennsylvania
building as boarding house and later
ut was used as a hotel, when third

women and children in also. A Mr..
Zimmerman and his eldest son took
charge of the wagon. They had two
guns and an old sword with which Mr.
Zimmerman humorously declared he
would defend the occupants. On the
way down the valley he picked up the
rest of his family consisting of his wife
and two sons and two daughters.
Attacked by Reds.
Their progress was unobstructed
until they reached Faribault's place,
where Zimmerman and two of his
sons were killed before they had a
chance to make any use of their
weapons. The women and children
were imprisoned in the house, and the
Indians had a hot debate about what to
do with them. Some wanted to set
the house on fire, but finally milder
counsel prevailed and the women
and children were allowed to pursue
their way to Fort Ridgely on foot.
About the time the women and
children started off in the. wagon with
the Zimmermans Benedict was ordered
to round up the mich cows and young
stock and take them to place now
occupied by the village of Morton.
The lad was then to proceed down the
valley to alarm the settlers, while his
father and younger brother guarded
the herd. But young Juni was not
fated to call on many settlers, that
morning. The Indians interfered with
his program. First they came upon
his father, who was guarding the
cattle and drove him off into the open
prairie. Their guns were significant,
and he took their advice to deca mp,
reaching Fort Ridgely before any of.
the rest of his family. -. =,
Warns Neighbors. ~
Meanwhile Ben had taken the path
laid out for him. He called at two
places, Mr.. Bureaus and Mr.. Kum-.
rows. Both families had already
been told Of the danger and were max
ing ready to escape. They asked the
boy to go with them, but he declined,
as that would have interefered with
carrying out J. his instructions. The
road led him through gap in. a high.
mass of rocks. He had gotten within
a hundred yards of this spot when he
saw three Indians coming out of the
pass. He turned his horse, intending
to go round the bluff and avoid meet
ing them. But almost Immediately
three guns we're leveled at him: and he

for the red mans Workmanship.

ne meant to resist. He answered only
with a smile at the thought of an un-
armed boy of II resisting three armed
men. At that the Redmen turned the
horse about and started in the direc-
tion young Juni had come. The
thought struck Ben that perhaps the
Indians cared more for the horse than
its rider, so he slipped off. An Indian
swung himself on and trotted away
without deigning to notice the lad
further. His companions, seemingly
well pleased with the performance
followed their leader and Ben. was free
again. Thus far her had known no
fear at all, but he thought it prudent
to give the road wide berth by going
around the bluff rather than through it,
Before again reaching the road he saw
the first dead lying in the grass. 1t
was the body of Frenchman, one of
two brothers who were opera ting. the
ferry at which Captain Marsh and his
command were annihilated few hours
later. 80. ~.
Dog Guards Dead Master.
The youth could never forget. the
appealing look the murdered mans
little dog gave him as he sat by the
side of his master licking the clotted
blood from his face. Thenceforth his
movements ! were guided with more
caution. Indians, wagons and oxen,
among them some belonging to the
Junis passed while he lay in the grass
a few rods away. Whenever the
Indians had disappeared he would run
until he saw new signs of danger, when
the, wary youngster would hide again.
In this manner he reached Faribault's s
place about noon. +
Approaching he saw a group of
Indians outside the house, the sa me
group as he afterwards learned, which
was deciding the, fate of his people.
One look was enough. He dashed in
to cornfeld on the opposite side OF
the road and made detour around the
usual fording place and thus missed
seeing what happened at Faribault's.
On the east side of the stream the
road left the valley and wound up the
hill toward. Magner's place. The un-
derbrush now impeded his progress
and he again ventured into the road.
When half way up the. hill he was
suddenly !; confronted by. two young
warriors who came round sharp
curve. One carried a double-barreled
shotgun, the other bow The one
with the bow got ready instantly to
send an arrow through the startled
boy, but his companion quickly thrust
the bow aside with the butt of his gun.

Coming on in endless numbers
Confident OF easy victory,
Comes this horde of lustful Indians
To this holocau ust of murder.
Now sheet of flame is bursting
From the palisades and breastworks
And the Fight is on in earnest;
Back and forth the battle RACES .

Still the same relentless foemen;

Then the scalping knife and hatchet,
Then the closing of the chapter

AS once more the sun is setting.
Gloom, despair, pervades the village
AS once more the night encircles
All around in awful silence.
AS the early dawn of morning
Once. more streaks the East in Glory,
Anxious eyes are keenly looking
For the foe, and still more fighting.
Not an Indian in the vision, = 'i

In the land of Minnesota,
In the land of Laughing Waters,
Far across the boundless prairies,
Comes the sound of woe and anguish,
Sounds of strife and bloody battle,
Fiends incarnate massa creing
Devils red with face distorted,
With the lust of death and torture
Striking man and wife and children.

Staying, killing, rapine, murder,

Who has dared to place his wigwam
On the beauteous grass grown prairies
Of the plains, which he held sacred
To the wild beast and red Indian,
To the red sons of the Wild West,

To despise and hate the paleface,
Who invaded their possessions.

Ogden Farmer Plants
 Large Truck Acreage

Ed Wood of Ogden, who for several years has been engaged in the truck business, has gone into the business this year on more extensive scale. He has 100 acres of his farm on Red River now in truck of various kinds. He is this week shipping spinach in car load load lots. He has sixty acres in spring turnips MT. Wood says that turnips in"the past has been his most profitable crop, as he is able to sell them in most any markets. He has a large acreage in lettuce, some of which is now in head and will soon be ready for the market. Then there will a little later come the radishes ana early onions and carrots. There is something doing all the time on the Wood farm, for he is marketing stuff long before other farmers are planting, and often before they are blowing and getting ready to put in a crop. He has enough acreage to be able to make car lot shipments. His knowledge of the markets and pack ing has been dug out by his own ef- forts and experience. It is said by those that profess to know, that MT. Wood has made money in this busi- ness, and that he has paid for one of the best farms of Red River in three year playing the truck gardening game. To be sure he grows corn and cotton as we'll as hay and other crops such as other farmers grow, but he has harvest time at both ends of the year and also the middle. He falls down on some of these crops occas- ionally, but doesn't have time to feel sorry for himself before checks are coming in from some other crop.
