A PROMPT AND
Highest of all in Leavening Power Latest U. Si Gov't Report
ABSOLUTELY PURE
OOPYRtQHT BY AMBRIOAN PRESS ASSOCIATION, AOS
.A.
The pony went forward.
As Joe followed the body down the
gully he met several Indians coming up
to help remove the dead, but he had not
gone over two hundred feet when a
break in the right bank offered him an
opportunity to leave the big ditch. He
scrambled out at once and dropped to
his hands and knees and crawled away
in the darkness.
. He had passed the gully, which had
been considered the great point of dan
ger, and now to get the lay of the ground
about him and seek to discover if there
was another circle of Indiansl Creeping
forward as silently as a rabbit he ascend
ed a ridge from which he could make
observations.
The Indians were carrying off their
dead a portion of them while the
others had built fires behind another
ridge and were cooking their meat.
They seemed assured ttmt the white
men would make no move to assume the
offensive, and the repulse had evidently
demoralized them for the tiino being.
The way to the north and the west
was unobstructed to far as the scout
could determine in the darkness, and
after a bit he moved foryurd, having no
other object in view tlmn to cover the
twenty miles between hira and the forks
of the Cheyenne as soon ae possible. He
was carefully pick in;; way to the
northwest, neglecting no precaution un
til he should be certain that he was be
yond the lines, when ho suddenly came
upon a dozen or morn Indian ponies
bunched in a hollow where the damp
ness had brought forth a growth of
sweet grass. Two or three were hob
bled, but the rest were f rue, and after
creeping clear around the circle Joe
failed to find a guard. If one had been
left he had temporarily abandoned his
post.
i The Indian's horse and dog are like
the Indian himself. They hate the
white man. Although Joe's disguise
had carried him through the Indians his
scent betrayed him to the horses at
once, and as he crept nearer, those which
were unfettered moved away. The
scout knew the characteristics of the
animals, and he lost no time. From a
heap of saddles, blankets and lariats he
seized a rawhide rope and made a dash
for one of the hobbled ponies, making
off as fast as his situation would permit.
In a couple of minutes he got the rope
around the pony's neck and looped it
into his mouth and then he had him. It
was not more than live minutes work to
cast off tbe bobbles and arrange blanket
and saddle, and then he led the animal
out of the hollow and over the ridge
and away into the darkness until he felt
safe in mounting him. Tbe beast fought
hard for a few minutes, knowing that it
was all wrong, out the strong arms and
the hard heels of the scout finally hum
bled him, and he went off through the
darkness at a gait which would have
distanced pursuit had it been attempted.
Up one ridge down the other side
. up and down never a change in the lay
of the ground for miles and miles, but
holding as straight for the forks as the
needle of the compass could point.
Hunters in the woods have their signs
and need no compass. The hunters and
scouts on the plains seem to divine by
intuition. To the average eye the great
plains are a trackless waste. To the
scout they are an open book. Blindfold
him and lead him iii circles for an hour,
and when the hoodwink is removed he
will give the compass points without
hesitation.
And an Indian has the instincts of a
fish or wild animal. The panther or
wolf may be driven from his lair and
pursued for miles, but he can return to
it by the shortest route. Lead an In
dian blindfolded a hundred miles from
any familiar point and turn him loose
anil his eves will instinctively turn in
BRUISES.

the direction of home.
As Joe rode forward through the
gloom of night he had no fear that he
would come out above or .'below the
forks. His only anxiety was that he
might fail in finding the party. Sup
pose it had pushed ahead faster than he
had figured I Suppose it was still two or
three days awayt Suppose the order to
set out had been countermanded! 1
The pony went forward through the
darkness at a steady gait, seeming never
to tire, and after midnight the charucter
of the country began to change. Instinct
told the scout that he was approaching
the forks. If the party were there there
Would be a soore of signs to show it be
fore coining within rifle range. At the
distance of a mile away Joe pulled his
horse down to a walk and thus went
forward, listening with bated breath for
some sound to locate the camp.
The soft footsteps of his horse alone
broke the mighty silence. Not bo much
as the chirp of a cricket came to him
from out the darkness. ' ' .
When yet half a mile from the forks
Joe's heart sank within him. If there
was a camp near at hand his horse
should make some sign. The Indian's
ling and pony are his sentinels as he
bleeps. ,
There was a grove of cottonwoods at
the forks, and around and about was
grass in plenty. It- was the spot for a
camp, but there was no camp. The
scout advanced at a steady walk until
he reached the edge of the grove un
challenged. That settled it. The party
had not arrived. He almost cried out
in his disappointment, and for the next
few minutes he knew not what to do.
"They may have passed here no longer
ago than noon," he finally argued with
himself, "or they may be only half a
day's march to the east. 1 must wait
for daylight to determine."
He had no fear of Indians here. Ev
ery redskin for fifty miles around had
been called in to make up the force now
besieging the train. The pony was wa
tered aud staked out, and then the scout
penetrated the grove a short distance
and flung himself down to sleep. In
ten minutes he was sleeping like a child.
Therein lies the secret of the endurance
of the plainmen. They drill themselves
in Bleeping. No opportunity to Bleep
for even a quarter of an hour is ever
ueglected. In Custer's battles with the
red men his scouts slept in the deep
snow with the thermometer at zero
while waiting for daylight and theopen
ing of the battle of Wichita.
Nothing occurred to create an alarm
or disturb the scout's slumbers, and
with the first signs of dawn he was on
his left. A quarter of an hour later he
was b:ntiug back and forth for signs of
the white party. Ten minutes' search
siitisfie l him. It had not passed. No
one, white or red, had passed the forks
within tune days. Joe bad no food,
and as his rille had been left behind the
prospect of procuring fresh meat was
anything but encouraging. Anxiety
offsetB hunger, however.
At the east end of the grove was a
tall Cottonwood standing alone. Joe
mounted to iu very top to make an ob
servation. The country to the northeast
was rolling, with timber along the
oourse of the river, but after scanning
the country as closely as possible the
scout descended with the conviction
that no considerable body of men was
within twenty miles of him. Had the
party from Fort Sully been within fif
teen miles of him he could have detect
ed the smoke of their morning camp
fires. Should he wait? Nol His impatience
was too great. He had left the belea
guered wagon train feeling that the fate
of every man depended upon finding the
soldiers at the forks. It bad been a long,
long night to tbe men crouched down
behind tbe breastworks and expecting
an attack at any moment. Had an at
tack been made? Hod they been strong
enough to repel it? If not, the morning
tun was looking upon their disfigured
corpses. If so, the horrors of thirst
were creeping in upon the defenders to
madden and disorganize them. Every
mouthful of meat and bread would but
add to their torments. Every hour
would render the horoes more desperate.
And every man left behind was de
pending on the energy of the scout,
whose nerve had carried him out of the
fort to save the party from the horrible
fate which seemed in store for them
Joe realized this, and taking a deep
draft of thu cold waters of the Chey
enne he caught up his horse and mount
ed and held for the west, keeping this
right band bank of the river and push
ing the gait as fast as ho dared. He
had begun to believe that no party hod
left ,Fort Sully, but be was riding furi
ously forward in that desperation which
makes men cling to straws in midocean.

Meanwhile what has happened inside
the fort? . -j
Joe had been gone a full hour, arid the
captain felt sanguine that he had suc
ceeded in passing out before the fact of
his going was communicated to all.
Bess for one had missed him. and had
anxiously wondered why and where he
was detained. When her father told
her the news she received it in silence,
but had he been looking more closely he
would have seen her face flush and grow
pale even in the darkness.
Men will peril their lives for men, but
take a thousand risks for the woman
they love. Intuition told her that Joe
was taking the terrible odds for her, and
she knelt and prayed God to bring him
safely through.
The evening grew into night. The
Indians had removed the last of their
dead and wounded, broken their fast
and uUuined anew, .

AT IT AGAIN.
From the Arlington itecord.
From present indications Arlington
will yet have a reputation. At this time
the Portland papers are disotissingasen
sntiiinnl affmr in which W, E. Chapman
and Mrs Lena Toolley, nee Bnrdiok, are
th principal Rotors. Chapman was al
one time proprietor of the GrRnde hotel
in this city, while the woman in question
worked for him ss ohsmbermaid; and
dnriug this time their mutual ndmirstim
for each other beosme well recognized.
She moved to Portland, and while acting
as ohambermaid in that oily was married
to a gentleman by the name of Toolley.
Tbey soon separated, when sbe began an
notion for divorce, an acoocnt of whiob
was given in this paper at tbe time. '
It now appears that Chapman, whose
win readouts was unknown to parties
here, bad not forgntteu bis former duloi
na, and tnat soon after her mnrrisge ht
sppeared upon the scene, to the utter dis
may of tbe flickering sffections between
husband Hud wife. V hen a defense wr
interposed to her action for divorce, she
promptly made a proposal to her hus
band, nbo bad some property, to settb
the financial questions invoked in bei
suit by payinn her a Binall sum of read
CHsh. This, in couneotion with Chnp
man's attt-ntinns to bis wife, oonviuueti
Toolley that it was a game between the
two to "work" him for some money. He
thereupon prooured a wairaut for tbe
suspected couple on charge of adultery
Hud employed two offioers to walch the
bouse of her mother.
At 3:30 a. ni. last Monday the oCRcere
by looking over the trsosom aud through
the "key hole in the door," had seei
enough to qualify themselves (is witness
es. So they then oaused the door to bi

when the testimony, which is said to be

The injured husband is willing to con
done tbe offense of bis wife, aud tske bei
I'fcTHin to bis InviuK heart, but herKomeo
will probably fare differently. Chapman
protests bis innocence and elsims the nf
fair to be only a eoheine tor bis downfall.
