It was. shortly after two o'clock la the afternoon when that compact col nmn of caralrymen mored sUeatly forward down- the concealing coulee toward the more open ground beyond. Caster's plan wna surprise, the sadden smltlag of that rttlage la the ralley from the rear by the quick charge of his horsemen. From man to nun the whispered purpose trarelled down the ranks, the eager troopers greetmc .the welsosm nsmnage with kindling eyes. It was the old way of the Serenth, and they knew it well. With Custer riding nt the head of the column; aad only a little to the rear of the adrance scouts, his adjut ant Ceok, together with a rolunteer aide nestde him, the nre depleted troops lied resolutely forward, dream ing net of possible defeat Suddenly dtetaat shots were heard far off to their left and rear, aad deepening into Tet there were those among them who felt n strange dread that firing sounded so far up the stream from where Reno should hare beea by that time. 8tUl it might be that those orerhaaglag bluffs would mufle and delect the report. All about them horered death In dreadful guise. None among them saw those cruel, spying eyes watching from distant ridges, peering at them from concealed rn rinee; none asarked the rapidly mass-, ing hordes, hideous In war-paint, crowded into near-by coulees and. be hind protectlBg hills. It burst upon them with wild yells. The gloomy ridges biased Into their startled faces, the dark rarlaes harled at them skurrymg horsemen, while, whererer their eyes turned, they be held sarage forms leaping forth from kill and coulee, gulct and rock shad ow. Horses fell, or ran about neigh ing; men flung np their hands and died In that ttrst awful minute of oon steraatton, aad the Utile column seemed to shrirel away as if consum ed by the name which struck it, front and flank and rear. It was as if those had' ridden Into the month or edin!o sossetHnig more nearly re sembling a battle Hue Calhoun on the left, then Keogh, Smith and Yates, with Tom Custer holding the extreme right Thus they waited grim ly for the next assault Nor was It long delayed. Scarcely had the troopers recorered, refilled their depleted cartridge belts from those of their dead conuades, when the onslaught came. The soldiers waited their coming. The short, brown-bsrrelled carbmss gleamed nt the lerel in the sunlight, and then belched forth their mssssns of flame into the rery feces of those reckless horsemen. It wan' not la flesh and blood to bear such n blow. With screams of rage, the red hraree swerred to left end right, leering many n dark, war-bedecked figure ly ing dead behind them, and many n riderless pony skurrylng orer the prairie. Exultant orer their seeming ly successful repulse, the aaen flung theumelree agate anon the earth, their cheers ringing out nabre the thud of retreating hoofs. "We eaa hold them here, boys, until Reno comes." they shouted to each other. The skulking red rifleman crept erer oloeer behind the ridges, drirlag their deadly mtssOse into those ranks exposed la the open. To the eenunand of the bugle they dmshsfged two roaring roUeys from their hopeful that the ee might reach the ears ef the laggmg Reno.
