The red Rklnned Illrt had becu At tending fin eiifterti Indian school and had re- tn ned to the reservation to p.iss her vaca tion , when 8hu and Klrst Horn mot nnd formed a warm attachment for f-ach other. Naturally the Jealousy of the patient \\lfc VMS aroused , Then the tccreinl husband nnd the young channel Oeclded to ulnpo In tlio fashion most approved among the young lioiplo of too while rettlements. They fled to Vanktoti agency , mil were followed by a himad of Indian tiollce , who had been placed on Ihclr trail by the dcccrted wife , and forcibly carried Ixick to Crow deck agency , wiiei'c the hard-hearted olllrers throw them Into Jail. After being Imprisoned foi a time they were liberated , and the relatives ot Good Naturtd Keel Hear again sent her to the eastern school , hoping that the separation would result In the lovers forgetting each other. After many months the Indian girl re lumed to hut home on the icservatlon. First 1) ) ' .

Cnmplilnt clmrglng First IITII with bigamy was made to : i t'nlted States commissioner , and a warrant was b- tucd and s-erved 'by a deputy marshal. At the preliminary examination Attorney C. C' . Morrow , representing the accused , main tained that the United States was without jurisdiction , as the m.vriago ceremony con stituting the act ot bigamy was performed outside the Crow Creek reservation , and , therefore , only subject to the stale statutes. The commissioner concurred In this view and Klrst Horn was released. Ills lawful wife then Instituted divorce proceedings against him and won the case at n t'Crln of circuit court held In this city last June. MOVED TIll'3 HOUSE. Such nrc the di-talls'of the romance up tea a few days ago , when the ease was once more ealled to the attention of the authori ties by the action of Klr t Horn in making co.nplaint against Odd Face for larceny. H appcitg that shortly after Appearing Earth secured tlio divorce from Flint Horn in the circuit court here she married Odd Face. Klist Horn wan given an allotment of land l > y the government some years ago , and upon It was located the dwelling In which hlm- fci'f ami Appearing Earth resided before troubli ! ' arose between them. When his dl- l _ J vo'cedjwlfe remarried she took her new hus band to' this house , and the couple prepared to make their permanent home there. Fifst Born refused to peaceably permit the couple ' to retain possession of what ho asserted was II * his property , and us Ills divorced wife de clared she would keep the house by force. If necessary , the court at Crow Creek agency , I r composed of three full-blood Sioux , was ap I H pealed , to. Hut , much to the surprise of 1'Mrst Horn , the Indian court decided ti > move the house off First Horn's land , and thin they HiicccBsfully accomplished. First Horn accordingly entered complaint before the XJnjted Slates commissioner , and had Odd Knee arrested on the charge of larceny. As the result of the preliminary examination tlio accused was discharged , During the hearing Mm.-Odd Face , probably for the purpose ot tantalizing her former husband to the full est degree , appeared clad In all the finery of her wedding costume. Indians on the Sioux rescrvallon , who were formerly accustomed to divorce their wives in ( ho easy fashion prevalent for hundreds of years among the Indian tribes , are now quite generally applying to the state courts to separate them from uncongenial compan ions , and Judge Morrow of this city , who has successfully handled many such cases , IB being besieged by Indian warriors and squaws who are contemplating applying for divorces.

CAPTURE OF LITTLE KYUSE Another Chapter of tin Career cf the Fighting Pawnee Orphnni OFF TO THE LAND OF THE SIOUX I.Uit 11 Year AmotiK III * Capture and Then IN < > II | ) | ' < | Thrllllnu Ail- venture * In Senrcli of 111 * WlilttKutlior. . ( Copyright , 1897. by Cy Wurman. ) About a month after the batllo atVhltc Horse , in which Whlpsaw , Iho slatlon keeper , lob and Lltile Kyuse , the C-year-ohl Pawnee , slew n half dozen Sioux' , Hob was able to take his ride again on Ihe pony ex press. Llltlo Kyuse was now more of a hero than ever. The most he had done up to that night had been to warn the men when the Sioux were coming , but now It became known that he had not only detected the enemy In the act of stealing upon the sta tion , but had actually killed the leader o ! the murderous band , with his 38. Ono day when Whlpaaw and the express rider , who laid over at White Horse , were out after buffalo , Lltile Kyuso was watching Ihe station. The hunters had been lured aw'ay by the flying herd , and when the sun hung low In the clear , hot sky they had not yet returned. Kor nearly an hour the In dian boy had been watching a bare-backed broncho that scorned to bo feeding about a milo away , but kcut working nearer and nearer to the station. Presently the sharp eye of the Pawnee saw that the animal had two pairs of front legs. A quarter of an hour later ho made out thai Ihe rider was stalking In the shadow of Ihe horse. To and fro the animal went , out toward the sunset that was blinding the boy , and at each turn came nearer to the station. When at last the round , red sun went down , and the men did not return , the brave lltllo watchman took his irlflc and planted himself In the cabin door. At dusk the horse began to circle round Ihe cabin , but the boy kept his place. Now not more than 100 yards separated the horse nnd the station. The owner of the animal now started for the cabin from the rear , and when he reached the shed , or lean-to ln > which the express horses were kept , he stopped. The boy cocked his ear and his rlllc. TUB CAl'TUUE. The man starled his horse round the house one way , and crept round the other side on tiptoe. As the head of the horEc showed up at the corner ot the cabin , Little Kyuso stood up to face whatever ( or 'Who ever might come , and Instantly a powerful Bloux sprang upon him from behind , twisted the gun from his slender hands , threw him upon the back of his horse and vaulted ur behind him. The big Indian gazed down upon the lltllc toy gun contemptuously , swept the horizon with his ( Jagle eye , leaned forward , clamped the horse with his knees , and the animal galloped away. A half hour later Whlpsaw and Deb , tired and hungry , rode up to the cabin. "Kyuse ! " called Whlpsaw , but there was no answer. Dismounting , Deb threw Ihe door of the shed open , for his flrst Ihought was of the express pony , and was greeted by a cheerful neigh. Whlpsaw went Into the cabin , came out , looked at his companion and utlered tht one word , "Gone. " He'stooped and lifted the boy's rllle , that had been discharged in the scuffle , saw the old empty shell In th < "death chamber , " and wondered where the bullet had gone. It seemed to be a consola tion to find thai Ihe boy had made some sorl of a fight , ille had not gone 'Willingly awaj with his own people. He had been stolen captured and carried away by the Sioux , wlu would hold him for a high reward , unless the boy should Invite death by attempting te escape. That night Ihe men had to keep walch foi the first time for more than a year , for Lltile KyUBe would nol be Ihero lo cell Ihem wher Iho first faint sound of horses' feet was heard on the distant plain. WHIPSAW ON THE3 TRAIL. As soon as ill was light Whlpsaw took tht trail of the horse that had carried the boj away. In a sag , not far from the cabin , hf saw where an extra horse had been tethered acd he knew' them that the capture of Little Kyuse had been the result of a well-laic plan , and Unit it would , be useless lo follow Ihe thief. The news of the capture was carried easi to St. Joe and west to Sacramento by thi riders of the flying bronchos that were racing across the continent The company Immo dhtcly offered a' reward for ( he recapture o the Indian lioy , who hafl become not only at alarm clock , but a watch dog , at the mos dangerous station nn the entire route. Kor six hours the .Pawnee , with feet lashei to the saddle , roJo In front of his captor Swift as the wind , dllcmt n the shadows ol birds , they swept over the s ge-covcrci desert Into the territory ot Nebraska. Kor nearly a year Little Kyuse lived among the Sioux , hut he never forgot his white master. In all 'this time he had made no attempt to eocape , and hU captors began to believe that the boy had become recon ciled to his fate. It would be pleasant tc write hero that Lltllo Kyuso was vaslly sir pcrlor to other Indiana thai ho went regu larly to the Platte took off his bolt and bathed him In the running stream. hut he dlil nothing ot the kind. If ho plunged Intc the river occasionally It was because Its watci was cool and refreshing , and not because he wanted to b ? clean , cleanliness Is next tc godliness. Little Kylise was an Indian , lie would skin a rabbit alive to * ca how lonp It would live naked and share his dinner with a crippled dog. A mill run of Indians ot that day and age rcgardlfss ot trlbo or locality , would prob ably show a result of about one Jekyll tc sixteen Hydcs. In the spring and summer following the capture ot the boy the Sioux were busy will the Pawncss and the United States troops. The band In which the boy was held was forced to break camp ono dark night and fly lor their lives. THE KLIOHT. Little Kyuse took advantage of the situa tion and escaped. Not knowing that the Pawnees , who were after the Sioux , were his own people , ho turned his face to the west and set out to find his white friend. Ho traveled all night , not knowing exacllj lo what point of the compass his swift feel were carrying him , and at dawn hid beneath Iho bank of the river. When the sun wenl down he set his face toward the gold and resumed his Journey. He made nole of Ihe stars , so lhat when Iho , gold was gone ho was able to keep his course loward the west. It was near midnight of the second "sleep ; " the boy was hungry and tired , Ho know by his native Instinct that he inubt be neai the station from which the Sioux had carried him a year ago , and concluded to lie down and rest until morning. He ate the last ol a small piece ot dried buffalo moat that he had carried with him. Away off toward the mountains at the north he heard a. lone well howl. Another answered from the south ol him and still another close behind him. Tin boy , being unarmed , was sore afraid. lie got lo his feet , listened and hurried on. Presently he heard a < ago brush rattle , looked back and saw a dark shadow follow ing him. lie stopped short , and the shadow stopped. Ho turned and ran toward It , beatIng - Ing the nlghi air with his arms. The shadow flounced noiselessly to one side , and ho knew It was a wolf. Ho turned and ran for a few hundred yards , glanced buck and tlio shadow was a ! his heels. Ho fnoed about , and to his horroi Ihere were lliree or four other shadows fol lowing the first. Ho ran at them , they flounced about , but did not run away. Now he had to study the ftars to get his bearings again , and , when he started forward found himself surrounded by the gaunt , gray wolves of the plain. Brave as he was , the boy's heart stood still , while the hungry animals crouched nearer , He tried to pick up something to throw , bill there was nothlnfi but the dry earth ami the sage bush , KUIENI ) OU KOE ? Kar ilown the plain he thought he heard the hoofs of a horse hitting the trail. He put his ear to tho-earth ami heard lo his joy the unmistakable callatler , callaller of a horse's flying feet. Nearer and nearer came the sound and closer crept the wild dogs of the desert. The boy's trained ear told him that he was north of the trail upon which the horse seemed to be traveling , and that the lone rider would pass to the south of him. Darting this way and that he succeeded In driving the wolves away for a moment , and then hurried across the sage bush. He had not gone a hundred yards before he found himself surrounded by the band again. The horse was now so near the ho could hear the animal's breath coming with a snort like the exhaust erf a , locomotive at each Jump , and. the wolves were so-close to Jilm that he could hear them lick their chops and see their eyes shining like green glass In the darkness. Now he could see the horse outlined against the horizon and the rider lenanlng forward holding the broncho hard between his knees , . The boy made another desperate effort to escap ? from his pursuers , darted forward and a moment later his bare feet felt the trail. At that moment ono of the wolves snapped his sharp teeth through the calf ot the boy's leg , threw him to Ihe ground and Inslanlly he was covered by a dozen , leaping , snarling , snapping wolves lhat completely blocked the trail. The horse stopped so suddenly that a less watchful rider would have been hurled Into the heap.

Some idea of their strength may be gathered , says the New York Herald , from the fact'that each Is full } twice os strong as the celebrated " 999 , " which belongs to the Now York Central railway and hauls the Empire State expre , nearly three times as strong as the engine which hauls the Flying Scotchman from London to Edinburgh , and more than three times as strong as the engine which brings the malU from London ( o Holyhead , To put the matter In another way , one of these engines could haul as much as ten ordinary elevated railway engines , or four of the average passenger locomotives used In thl * country. > Coupled with their extraordinary strength these engines have a remarkable capacity for high , speed. One of them could pull at the rate of sixty miles an hour on a piece of level , straight track no less than thirty-three Pullman cars weighing forty tons each. Such a train would be more than two-fifths of tt milo long. The six coupled driving wheels of theae engines are each six feet In diameter , and the working steam pressure Is 200 pounds to the square Inch. The cylinders are of the or dinary simple type , each twenty-one Inches In diameter , with a piston stroke of twonty- elglib Inches. This gives a tractive force , or drawbar pull of 27,460 pounds , sufficient to haul < i tralnload of1.279 tons , equal to about eighty-five of the largest loaded freight cars , at slow speed on a level track.

Soft coal , of which about eight tons will bo put on the tender at starting , will be the fuel. An engine may also have great power and yet be unable to utilize it. owing to lu- MilHpient weight on Hie driving wheels. The total weight of one of these locomotives will bo scvotity-flvo tons , of which fifty-eight tons will rest on the six driving wheels , the re maining seventeen tons being carried by the four-wheeled truck In front. Kevkonlng the bile or iirln on the rail at one-fourth the weight on the drivers wo get an ndhoslou of' fourteen and one-half tons , nr 2U.OOO pounds , i which Is 1.510 pounds more than the tractive j force of the engine , thus leaving n good margin foi wet weather and slippery rails. The weight of nineteen and one-third tons i on each pair of drivers Is also unparalleled In the hhtory of railroads. To carry this , ' weight with safety nnd without heating thoj lournals ot each axle are eight and one-half Inches In diameter by eleven inches In length , fancy locomotive journals two feet and olio and one-half Inches In circumference ! The tenders attached to these engines will be worthy of them. Kach will carry -1,500 gallons lens of water , and when leaded lo Its full caoacltv will weigh forty-two and one-half tons. This will bring the total weight of engine and tender to 1172 ton * . The oblect of having such powerful engines Is not so much to make speed on the level as to maintain It on the grades. The maximum grades , of which there are several from two to four miles long , vary from seventy to eighty-two fitto ! thi' ' mile ( roughly speaking from one nnd rnc-fourth to one atH one-halt per cent ) and the curves on these froi * a to 0 degrees.
