Camp Perry, Ohio. were entered in
pistol events. Nearly 500 of these
were representatives of police units,
while others were civilians interested

confirmed the terms of the sur

delivered to Geronimo by Gate

complimented highly for having

on September 6, 1886 Geronimo
surrendered for the last time.

ing to his finer qualities.
Children, like grown-ups, appre-

and belief in him.
Certainly children need punish
nent. But the most efficacious
punishment is not that admins
tered in a spirit of revenge or
parental spite for the annoyance
caused by the child; it is the pun
ishment administered in the spirit
of necessity, to "help you to re-
member" that that particular
temptation is an enemy. A woman
l know made a practice of con-
sulting her four or five-year-old
son as to the punishment suitable
for certain misdemeanors-that is
one he would feel sufficiently to
help him to remember. And that
child has developed the ability for
self discipline which will make
parental chastisement unnecces-
sary long before he is eighteen.
The same mother seemed to
have extreme ideas of appealing
to the child's strength. The day
he first entered school she spoke
to him like this: 81 am doing my
best to help you to live up to the
fine qualities in you. If you do
anything to be ashamed of I shall
feel shortcoming in myself. But
I know you won't; 1 know can
trust you. Always remember that
you are strong in body, strong in
mind and strong in character, and
it is up to you to live up to those
gifts of God by setting good ex-
ample" So far the boy has done
that. And I know of no better
advice to give any parent.

Eventually Gatewood estab-
lished contact with Lawton's col
umn and late in August he
learned that Geronimo was near
Fronteras. Leaving Lawton's
command Gatewood pushed on
rapidly and reached Fronteras
where he found a detachment of
cavalrymen under the command
of Lieutenant Wilder. Taking ten
men from this detachment as
an escort, Gatewood followed the
fresh Apache trail. Near the big
bend of the Bivaspe river in
Sonora, MARITIME and Kateah
located Geronimo's camp, which
they entered and delivered
Miles ultimatum.
A Daring Venture
Geronimo sent back word that
he wanted to talk with Gatewood
and Naiche added his assurance
that their friend, the lieutenant,
would be safe in coming to a
conference. Even so, it was a
risky business.
But unmindful of this danger
Gatewood proceeded with the
negotiations. His understanding
of the Apache character and his
diplomatic handling of the situ-
alton resulted finally in Geroni-
mos agreeing to meet Miles in
Skeleton canyon in Arizona and
surrender, on condition that the
Indians should be allowed to re-
tain their arms while marching
to the meeting with Miles and
and that Gatewood should accom-
pany. Gatewood agreed to this,
subject to Lawton's approval.
The next day the march for
the border started. Several
times during that march the
Indians became suspicious of the
good faith of the Americans and
had it not been for the presence
of Gatewood there is strong
possibility that Geronimo and
Naiche would have slipped away
with their warriors once more.

arose when the authorities at
tempted to stop the Apache prac-
tice of making Irwin, a strong
intoxicant. AS a result, Gero-
nimo and Naiche, or Natchez,
son of Cochise and hereditary
chief of the Chiricahua, again
decamped from San Carlos and
started a reign of red terror in
southern Arizona and New Mex
leo and in Sonora and Chihuahua,
Mexico. Again General Crook
marched against the hostiles
with instructions to capture or
destroy them.
A Hard Campaign
After a long and difficult cam
paign over the blazing deserts of
the Southwest and among the
rocky Businesses of the noun
tains, a truce was arranged in
March, 1886, followed by a con-
ference at which the terms OF
surrender of the Apaches were
agreed upon. But before it could
be concluded, Geronimo, and
Naiche fled with their followers
into the Sierra Madres. Worn
out by his exertions and feeling
keenly the implied criticism by
his superiors of his failure to
conquer Geronimo's warriors,
Crook asked to be relieved OF
his command in that depart
ment.
His successor was Gen. Nelson
A. Miles, who as colonel of the
Fifth infantry had made a brill
liant record as an Indian fighter
against the tribes of the southern
plains in 1974-75, the Sioux and
Cheyennes in 1876 II, Chief
Joseph's Nez Perces in 1877 and
the Bannocks IN 1878. Arriving
at Fort Bowie in April, Miles
prepared for an energetic CAM
paign.
Spearhead of the campaign
was a detachment of cavalry,
infantry and Indian scouts COM
manded by Capt. Henry w. Law
ton of the Fourth cavalry-the
same Lawton who became
general and lost his life during
the Philippine instruction, Is
years later.
Lawton's pursuit of the
Apaches was one of the most
brilliant feats in the history of
the American army. He and his
men stuck to the trail with the
persistence of bloodhounds.
Their logged pursuit, plus the
Indians knowledge that they
were in constant danger of at
tack by other troops operating
against them, gradually wore
down even the tireless Apaches.
Among these troops were detach-
ments of the Sixth cavalry, one
of whose officers was Lieut..
Charles B. Gatewood, West
Point graduate in 1877, who had
distinguished himself during the
Apache campaign of 1883-84 and
had won the friendship and re-
spect of Geronimo's warriors
while they were on the San
Carlos reservation during the
next two years.
In July, 1886, Miles believing
that Geronimo and Naiche were
about ready to give up the strug-
gle, decided to send a message
to them demanding their sur
render and STIMULATING certain
terms under which it would be
accepted. The task of getting
this message to the Apache
leaders was entrusted to Gate
wood. With two friendly Chirica-
huas, MARITIME and Ka-teah Cor
Kayitah), to act as scouts,
George Wratton as interpreter
and several other civilians as
packers and couriers, Gatewood
started on his mission. For a
military escort he was to call
upon some of the commanders
then in the field and Miles in
structed him not to go near the
hostiles with fewer than Is SOL
diers as his escort. However,
none of the detachments Gate
wood encountered could spare
Is men so he pushed on without
this military backing.

EIFTY years ago this month
l. our Indian wars came to an
end. On September a, 1886,
Geronimo, the Apache, for
mally surrendered to Gen. Mel
son A. Miles and that surrender
marked the close of a bitter con-
flict between the red and white
races which had been carried on
intermittently for more than
two centuries and a half.
1t had begun away back in
1922 when Chief Opechancan-

paign of 1928 against the

of Gen. George A. Crook which
ended in the capture of Gero-
nimo's band in the Sierra Madre
mountains and their return to
San Carlos once more.

had learned to distrust the Span
iards three centuries earlier.
Son of a Chief
At about the time the first col
ision between the Americans
and the Apaches took place a
Nedni Apache warrior named
Takishim was living near the
headwaters of the ella river in
Arizona. Taklishim was the son
of Chief Maco of the Nedni but
since he had married a Bedon-
kobe Apache woman and joined
her tribe, he lost his right to
rule as hereditary chief of the
Nedni.
To them was born a son who
would become the most famous
of all Apache leaders even
though he was never recognized
as hereditary chief. He was
given the name of Go-khla-yeh
or Go yath lay, which means
1.-THE Yawner," but in the future
his would be name of fear in
the Southwest-Geronimo. Some
imaginative writer's have de-
clared that Geronimo means
Devil Saint" but the fact is
that it is only the Spanish for
Jerome" and was applied to
this Apache as a nickname by
the Mexicans. However, it was
easy enough to believe that
Devil Saint" and "Apache
Devil were synonymous terms
when Geronimo, at the height of
his career, was the scourge OF
New Mexico, Arizona and parts
of Old Mexico.
Good Reason to Hate
There is no doubt but that an
unprovoked attack upon Gero-
nimo's people by the Mexicans
gave him ample cause to hate
the men of that nation. Whether
or not he was equally justified
in his hatred for the Americans
is more questionable. Certainly
the unjustified murder of Man.
gus-C Colorado, who became chief
of the Bedonkohe Apaches after
the death of Chief Maco, and the
indignities suffered by, Cochise,
chief of the Chokonen (Chirica-
hua) Apaches, were not cal
culated to endear Americans,
either military or civilian, to any
Indian of that tribe. At any rate,
Geronimo seems to have been
an apt pupil of Cochise in the
art of hating the white men and,
in the art of making war on
them, he added few ideas of
his own to those which his pre-
decessors had contributed.
In 1876, as a result of depre-
dations committed in the state
of Sonora, Mexico, WIFI C h
brought strong complaints from
the Mexican government, the
United States authorities decided
to remove the Chiricahuas (the
term commonly used for both
the Bedonkohe and the real Chi
ricahuas) from the reservation
which they occupied on the
southern frontier to San Carlos,
Arizona. Geronimo, who was
then coming into prominence as
a war leader, Immediately fled
to Mexico. Later when he re-
turned with his band to Ojo
Caliente, N. M. he was arrested
by John p. Clum, the Apache
agent at San Carlos, and taken
back to that reservation.
There Geronimo and his peo-
pie settled down as peaceful till
ers of the soil and so long as
Clun was their agent they
caused no trouble. But when he
resigned and his hand was no
longer guiding the Apaches, dis
content sprang up. The failure of
the government to help them ir-
rigate their lands aggravated the
trouble and resulted in Gero-
nimo's jumping the reservation
and leading a raid into Sonora
again. Then followed the cam

Apaches of the Southwest. The
series of wars with them began
as far back as 1885 when the
treachery of an American trader
and the inexcusable killing by
his men of a party of Apaches
taught their tribesmen to dis
trust the Americans just as they

August Press Agent

The official minute clerk" of the Supreme Court of the United States has been designated as press contact man." In ordinary parlence he becomes the press agent of that august body. He will doubt less be the worlds most dignified P A. He will have his quarters in the regular pressrooms on the ground floor of the new marble edifice in which the Court sits, and will devote all his time to acting as liaison man between the Court and the Press.
 Irreverent columnists may find this theme for mirth, but it is really wise and useful move. The Supreme Court has assumed more public importance than ever before. The nation becomes more interested in it's proceedings and more affected by them. Judicial processes are always difficult for laymen to follow, and even the expert Washington reporters often have trouble in understanding them and explaining them to the public. Every body should benefit by this innovation.
