Ono morning in Florence In tli
sumncr of 1877 aonio 1'itrm Indian
brought us intelligence tlmt the gentle
tlo Apnoho had culled on thorn th
night b ( f jro nnd relieved thorn of
lixrco amount of surplus stock , \vc
tnon nnd other easily convoyed nrti
cleg. The boys said : "Let'em mid
inoro fun and ICWR Injuns for ono trib
or t'olhor , " nnd went to brenkfnsl
r.ut whim n Mexican came to town ot
n foaming pony nnd ennounced that
thousand Apaches vroro coming tilth
up the valley , wo thought nomothin
wns up. ThiMi dashed in a _ white nm
on a horse covered with awcn
and dust , nnd j oiled ; "Apache
right liore ; moro'n five tliousnni
of 'cm , riming ; nil hands am
the cook turn out : you ! " So wi
turned out. From the Pimaa wi
learned that there ware not over a
hundred Apaches , nnd , of course , nn ;
ton of us young chaps thought TV
could innko n hundred Apaches skip
Guns , nnnnunition , horses nnd sad
dies were bought or seized \ TO bon
publico , nnd eoino government mules
were ruthlessly pressed into service
Wo invited n baker to accompany us
but ho engerly declined the honor
Those who would have preferred to
stay wont because the rest did. The
Mexicans did not volunteer very
eagerly ; but the church had many
people praying in it. Every bummer
dead-beat and desperado was nnxioui
to die for his country , and most o ;
the citizens of Florence were quite
willing that they should 'enjoy the
privilege.
THE HO 1.1)1 ) RUB HALT.
By the time wo reached the auency
a crowd of men , variously nrnied and
mounted , were on hand , nnd wo mot
n small force of noldiors. The friendly
Indians easily found the trail , and the
Mexicans matlo first rnto follows to
ride ahead and yellWo wont near
Superstition Mountain , and then the
soldiers camped. Riding up to the
ofticor.in command "Colorado Jack"
asked , "What in nroyOu camped
for ! "
With military hauteur the Colonel
drew himself up nnd replied , "To wait
for provisions , pack-mulca and rein
Torcoments , sir. "
" it , do you expect the Apaches
to wait for us ? Ef you push on wo
could give "em fits before morning. "
The officer explained that his men
cuuld not go on without rations , and
ho had to wait. The best mounted
and most desperate of us prepared to
50 on , provisions or no provisions , nnd
: > nly n few remained with the troops.
Cursing the U. S. Government , the
officers , the army and the Indians , wo
wont on. The Colonel called out ,
"When you arc repulsed you can fall
bncV on this command and you will bo
sustained ; wo will follow as quickly as
uoasiblo. "
A HLOODV TRAIL.
All night we rode on , eVer the hills )
through canyons , and twisting in and
out , constantly expecting to be
attacked. Some men joined us from
the Glebe and Final districts , and
about daylight wo stopped to oat our
scanty breakfast of bread , bacon ,
pickled beef and a iittlo ciitco. The
trail began to grow hot ; Horses were
: ound dead , or hamstrung , as well as
many articles that the fleeing Apaches
were forced to throw away to insure
greater rapidity of movement. The
bMrna guides found a man of their
: rlbo that the Apaches had captured.
They had hanged him to a tree , dis-
mibowllod him , scalped him and tore
liis tongue out. After that , wo found
on the path the body of a young girl
mutilated. Wo continued a north-
eastly course , going on both sides of
every canyon for fear of an ambus-
cade.
Just as the Pimas were going down
a canon ahead of us , and wo were
stringing along behind , they were
irod on ; then wo were fired on from
iho hill above us , and as the men.in
'ront poured back , wo young chaps
jroko into a run poll-moll , ovury man
or himself. The older men foil back
a Iittlo way to a jood position as to
rocks and trcos , whore the Apaches
were hold in check. Jack and several
others came attor us , and back wo
went. Led on by him , with the help
of the "old-wheel horses "
- , we drove
Indians back to their old previous po
sition , regaining the ground wo had
ost. After a brief rest , we made n
lank attack and a charge , and down
they went through the canon to their
main body. Hero , occupying a good
position in a brushy gulch , they coin
lolled us to keep well in order. From
irueh to rock they skipped , and-we
lid the same ; finally , under the able
eudcrslnp of Colorado Jack wo boat
tlu < m back. Thn Apaches are good
shots nod have bravo men , and had
; hey not boon weary with a week's
marching , wo should have received u
good dreesing down at their hands.
A HANI * TO HAND 1'IOIIT.
Every man was quite independent ,
and did not consider ho was obliged
o obey any other man. Most of us
iaa Winchester rill OB. Some had
other kinds of rifles , and uomo had
shotguns. An Irishman had u Win
chester given him , but long before
txhausting the shots in the magazine ,
10 clubbed it in several charges in-
lead of firing it. Lyintr behind a
rook with him , I asked him why lie
didnotfiro. "Oh " ho "
, replied , "yon
nay take aim an' take aitn until your
eyes are blind , an' you don't get the
ed devil ; but whin I take aim with a
lub , bogor , something cracks. "
At one time live of us were behind
rook , and a fallen tree was held by
onu Indian , who kept us from the
main lii ht below. Many uhgta were
xponded in the endeavor to got him.
At last ono fired , followed immediately
> y two shots , one on each side of the
roe , resulting in one dead and conso-
niontly good Apacho.
When ua Indian was killed or
rounded , desperate efforts were made
> y the othora to keep him out of our
lands ; and BO generally were they
ucceHaful that it was impossible to
enow how many Indians we killed ,
] n > ry one of our party claimed to
ave killed ono or inoro of the In-
ians ; but as we greatly outnumbered
hem , it is not obvious how so many
uad Indians were supplied. Those
ndianu were armed with government
loedlo guns , Winchester and Hum-
ngton rifles. They fought almost or
uito naked. Ono had a sword , and
was said to bo a chief of the rone-
* dea. The whites were as brutal as
he Indians in many respects , such as
calpini } and mutilating the prisoners
nd the dead.
Towards evening , while going
through narrow pass , the Apache
sent n volley of well-directed shots n
the advance column , killing ono o
mnro men and wounding govern
Springing up nn almost itnp.issibl
trail , wo reinforced the fUukora , nn
drove the Apaches down to thu no *
canon. Hero wo camped by n spring
nnd cooked our supper of horse meat
Several wounded were sent back bj
the Punas nnd Mexicans , nnd tlirot
dead were burled.
A MKSSAOB VKOM Till * . SOUUEIiS.
An Indian runner ouno with n letter
tor from the ntliccr in command of th
soldiers before mentioned , stating tha
ho could not follow nny further , bu
was cumpod nt n plnco designated
whore he would wnit throe days for ute
to come back. Wo decided to gi
nhcnd , if not whipped , nnd sent run
tiers for inure nnnnunition nnd pro
visions , firmly believing that to-tnur
row wo would "ovorlnstingly clean U ]
the Apnchcsl" All night ncrosa tin
canyon the guards exchanged shot
whenever onu tired or n noino wn :
made. So close were wo that if a per
son on either side did riot step very
carefully , shots weto dropped nl
around him.
Early in the morning wo ponrot
over the hill and canyon , only to line
the main body of Indians had Hod

with the main body of Apaches bj
noon , wo should hnvo boon liglitinj
each other As it was , many turnci
back , and only the most determined ,
not over 75 in number , kept on ,
The moat exciting incident of the
day was a hand-to-hand fight , laatlnj
about live minutes , between Jack am
abaut ton men , with a chief nnd prob
ably twenty Indians , resulting in the
chief's death. This was followed by a
Ipspurato fight for his body and to
till Jack , who was scalping him.

land by a litho nnd strong younj

with ono hand , nnd dreg ed mo out

laving the body of the chief had to
Irop it , and , slipping into a gully , wo
fopt oil' thu infuriated Apacheo until
ill the felloVa could come together
and "give 'oni a rillle. "
"INDIAN MAD. "
With ua was a peculiar character
mined Potter , who was said to bu
"Indian mad. " IIo would fight the
Apachca at every opportunity in revenge
vongo for their having eomo years
previously killed his family and out
raged his wlfo before his eye ? , ho only
escaping by good luck from n death
ns cruel as they could invent. lie
would dash right on to a crowd of
hem , and was never badly hurt. Bo
ng a good shot , ho made himself a
.error to the band of Indiana whom
wo vroro fighting. Sometimes , nftor
irospecting or working in a mine for
evoral months , ho would go.off by
himself after the Apaches.
At night wo only camped for n few
lours and then endeavored" to pass the
[ ndians and take them in front and
roar } Wo came in on the flank of
nojt of them and 'fought until day-
ight , with but Iittlo damage to cither

.he vicinity of Salt river , some dis-
anco above Tonto crook and not far
rom the Glebe mining district The
county was wild and rocky , the hills
steep , and the brush thick. Wo could
ise horses but littln and fought moit-
y on foot. The Indians fought shyly ,
uoving hero and there , but not falling

tad been doing. At ono time , when

escaped unhurt , though badly frii'ht
mod , and the Indian was soon killed
.wenty times over.
IN Till ! INDIAN VILLAGE.
An old Maricopa of our party said
hat the Apaches must bo trying to
coop us from their camp , and that
about throe miles over the mountains
was a deep canyon where there used
o bo a village of them. Guided by
litn over a long disused trail , wo 00011
md hard fighting with a largo number ,
from bank to bank wo went , and at
nst could BOO where there was a can
yon. II ore , behind a rocky ridge , our
opponents made their last stand , and
most desperate ono it was , As they
HWO way I loft , with about twenty-
ivo others , for the lower part of the
canyon , thinking they miglit endeavor
o drive oil' their stolen stock
hat way. Slipping down a gulch
vith our horses , wo followed down
ho bottom of the canyon in the
iroction indicated by fresh homo
racks. Above us , where the canon
widened a little , there was a field of
orn , and we could hear cries nnd
veils from the Indians , as our boy *
[ rove back their warriors above them/ /
Halting a sudden turn we struck BOV--
iral Indians driving a largo herd of
loraes down the canon. As they Hod
hrough the bushes wo secured the
lorses. Driving thorn into the corn
nnd leaving some of our number to
fatch tlieni , wo rode to the now
burning village to ace if our aid was
leeded , Everything had been carried
If or fired by the retreating wretches ,
nd only throe men , two boys and a
oung rquaw were our priionora.
tinny of our men followed after the
( ilrcating Indians , but UH they wore
irod and hungry they noon returned ,
coding our horses 011 the green corn
nd ourselves on horse meat , wo re-
nainod there till morning.
Our men acted very brutally to the
ndian woman ; I cannot describe
heir conduct , but the Indians thorn-
elves oould never have noted worse
o our 'women short of killing them ,
t was horrible. One of the old men
ras killed by some of our men during
lie night , and it was nil Jack could dee
o prevent them from killing the re
naming prisoners.
The next day we started on our re-
urn by a shorter trail than we used
oining , but having eovcral wounded
nd a large number of horses wo could
ot travel fast. Dirty and thirsty , at
veiling , wo cauipod by u little uprmg ,
nd eating our half-cooked horse meat
nd a Iittlo parched corn from the
urned village , wo passed a wretched
nigl-t. The poetry of Indian fighting
was not apparent , nnd besides was tin-
remunerative. I thoioforo concluded
never to turn out of my wny ngain to
fight Indians , nnd that ten-cent novels
on the subject wore 'decidedly "thin '
*
T11K SOLDIKUS MODKST DEMAND
At this spot several of our men lefl
us , to return to their mines , nnd when ,
on the next day , wo reached the sol
dieiV \ir.p , thcro was not so ninny ol
us as when wo had loft it come day ;
boforo. The olllcors kindly oll'ornd to
take charge of the captured stock ,
but wo didn't BOO it in that light.
Then it was delicately intimated thai
without the stock no provisions would
bo issued , nnd claimed that iho horses
properly belonged to the United Stnten
army. At the intimation that no pro
visions would bo issued , thomon lUrei
up nnd vowed they would hnvo pruh

gry mnn cnu ilgjit like demon * ; bill
wo got our provisions , Around roar
ing fires wo that night piled in the hoi
cotloo , bacon nnd hard tack , to which
not n few added \vhiaky. Abuse ol
the government , nnd brags of exploits
in the recent lights , were the ctaplea
of conversation , The nrmy ollicers
doipUo the citizens ns to their fighting
qualities , nnd baliovo that but for the
military the Indians would take the
\rholo territory. The citizens , on the
other hand , buliove that if the army
would leave the citizens would lick
every redskin , from Sonura to Cole
rado.
llomnrkod a gignntlo cavalryman :

Why hould wo want to fight for thir

to gut rid of the surplus provisions in

Ilin views accord with tlioao of n

Other reasons for the disinclination
of soldiers to fight in Arizonn may bo
found in the fact tlmt their clothing

"Better way would bo , " said a phil
anthropic Yankee , "to give 'em two

can't earn their own livin' , let thorn

"Might as well shoot "em at first , "

"Oh , no ! " sarcastically rejoined a
Webfoot ; "pot "om , food 'em , give

Then spoke a Oalifornian : "Tie
every Apache by the heels to n China

So the conversation continued to a
ate hour of the night. Somehow very
