MASSACItK MJAIt
WOOD SPUING
A fow days ago I cnllod upon Mr.
Ttfagnus J. Colin who resides In Max
well. In tho course of our conversa
tion ho gave mo Home interesting
facts of his experience while serving
as a soldier In Company H 2nd U. 3.
Cavalry under Col. Mlsnor during the
years 18G0 to 1809. Ho joined this
regiment aftor ho served In Company
A, of tho 27th Ponnsylvnnltt Infantry
Voluntcors throughout tho Civil war.
Mr. Cohn related somo very inter
esting facts of hia experience while
fighting tho Sioux Indians In Lin
coln county. Ills regiment was first
stationed nt Kort Kcnrnoy and lator
at Fort .WePhorson from 18GG to lSfil).
COT TON-Might meet with treachery.
Tho wagon train with measured pace,
Was moving steadily on,
To reach a noted watering placo
On tho trail of old Gratton,
A warrior, gaunt and keen of oyo,
Reached out a hrawny liand,
And sifld, "Look yonder, Mnton-tlo,
Chief of tho great Sioux Band."
The Chief then looked across tho
plain,
Now shimmering in tho sun,
And said, "In yondor wagon trnln
Thoro's food onougli to run
My pcoplo through a spaco of Moons,
Tho hluocoats they are fow,
We'll hldo 'mongst yonder low sand
dunes,
Until they arc passing through."
Mr. Cohn, who Is now 78 years oh 1,0 1,1 waning into uio hihikuh
and totally blind, has a mind as clear All(l mako no IUOVo ut
aB a hell. Ho remomhors the hard- UnUl 'ou 1,car 'olir Chieftain mako
shins and trials tho early settlers had A cimlUnt; Sioux War Call."

An plnln as tho word of Serine,
That hunger stalked among tho folk
Of tho dnuutlosH old Sioux Tribe.
A wagon train of ton or moro,
Kor California Imund,
Had onmpod a, night or ho bofore
On the old historic ground;
The Colonel urged tho men In vain,
To wait for Cavalry
Iir woll be know, the wagon train

Woro merged with brush and sand:
Insidious waiting for tho kill,
This fearsome hostile band.
Quito Into that night a noted scout

And for Cottonwood Spring set out

Ho led Troop "A" of Fort Kearney
Of Genornl Chrr's command,

A victim to tho foe,
Upon tho trail wo know so well,
Was avengod so long nc.

Tho Popular
Pathway to
Economical Buying.
Habit Is a great master
of our lives. We do many
things thru force of habit
and not because It Is the
right thing to do. When
wo ask ourselves why we
did this or that, we do not
know.
One Of the most detri
mental outcomes of habit
is that of spending money
continuously nt one placo
-without giving oven a
passing thought to the
possibility that tho samo
or better thing might bo
bought elsewhere for less
money.
ITablt often cheats us in
this way. Money is lost.
Get the habit of mnklng
comparisons of merchan
dise of materials, of
quality, of workmanship
and, then, of tho price.
