The Small Boy.
I shall not soon forget a stage
coach rido from Fort Smith f Ark.) to
Muskogee, Indian Territory. I
thought that 1 would be tho only pas
senger, but when a woman and a boy
and subsequently a half Indian en
tered, I very naturally revised my
former impression and decided that I
would have company. The half In
dian had been educated at an eastern
school, and was a very intelligent
man. He was, I understood him to
say. a member of the Cherokee coun
ciL pnd was returning homo from a
visit to Washington, to attend a ses
of that grave, if not potent, body of
Indian legislators. When the boy
learned that tho man was an Indian,
ho began to eshibit a restlessness
which I soon discovered would result
in the red man's annoyance.
"Did you ever kill anybody?" asked
the boy.
''Tommy," said the woman, "don't
be rude."
"I think not," replied the Cher
okee.
"Then what makes you be an In
dian?"
"Which half f
"Thomas l" exclaimed the woman,
turning him around, unbuttoning his
coat and buttoning it again. He re
mained quiet for a few moments and
then said:
"MawS"
"What, dear?"
"A half Indian would only half kill
anybody, wouldn't he?"
"If you don't hush TH put you
out"
"Then Tdhave to walk, wouldn't I?"
"Yes."
"An' the bears might get me,
mightn't they?"
"Yes, they would."
"Would you care?"
"Yes."
."Then what makes you wanter put
me out? Do the Indians scalp folks?"
again addressing tho Cherokee coun
cilor, who exhibited the stoical side
of his Indian nature; but then, yield
ing to the white, and, of course, the
polished half, replied:
"The wild ones do."
"But you are not wild, are you?"
"No."
"Why ain't you?"
"My little man, I must say that you
are asking too many questions," cast
ing a reproachful glance at tho
woman.
"If yon don't hush I'll whip you;
do you hear me?" taking his hat
from the floor and putting it on his
head.
"Yessum."
Ho remained quiet a few moments,
but dropping his hat on the floor, he
reached down, took it up and said:
"If you was a wild Indian you'd
cut me with a knife when I stooped
down wouldn't you?''
The Cherokee looked far out over
the lands of his fathers, but made no
reply.
"If I waster hit you, you'd hurt
me anyhow, wouldn't you?''
"No," the red man replied.
"Why wouldn't you?"
"Another word out of you and I'll
whip you. Never mind; Til tell your
father," said tho woman.
It was impossible for him to keep
qniot, and after awhile he asked:
"Have you got any boys?"
"Yes, two."
"Are they Indian boys?"
"Their mother is a white woman."
"As whito as my maw?"
"Just another word out of you and
I'll box you," said tho woman, blush
ing." Ho had evidently tested his indul
gent mother on many an occasion,
for, after the shortest possible silence
on his part, he asked:
"Did vou ever seo any scalps?"
"Yes, I think so."
"Did thoy have blood on 'em?"
"No, they were dry," replied the
Cherokee, plainly showing that his
polite readiness to answer the ques
tions had risen abovo his Indian sto
icism.
"Do they peel them liko apples
when they dry 'em?"
"Hufh your mouth." The Indian
nature was endeavoring to assert it
self. 'If you ask another question I'll
whip you, you rascal," said the wo
man. "Aro you going to hush?,'
"Yessum."
He twisted himself around,
scratched the coach door with a nail
which he mysteriously produced, and
asked:
"Would you rather be an Indian
then a white man?"
"Hold on," demanded the Chero
kee, calling out to the driver. "Let
me ride outside."
"It's going to rain. I think, colonel."
the driver responded.
"Makes no difference " and he got
out and climed up on top of the
coach. I then thought that my time
had como, but he was after better
game; our red man of the forest was
his affinity. He screwed himself
around a while, and then, leaning
from the coach window, he called:
"Say, does Indians scalp niggers?"
"Whoa," said the Cherokee; "let
me get down."
"Want to get back inside?" asked
