VV' A FIGHT WITH APACHES.
: The Hualapl ( pronounced Wnlapl ) Apache
: Indians were 0 terror to the setters of
- northern Arizona after the CiVil war , mur-
clorlng every human being In sight and burn-
. Ing and dEstroying ranenes , waYiaylng and
. ambushing wagon loads of merchandise
V being carrIed Into the territory for the army
, commissaries and setters , killing the driv-
ers , plundering the wagons and burning them
. and rnnning oft the stock In the adjacent
I mountaIns.
, , CaptaIn Young ( now Lieutenant colonel of
the Eighth Unlcd States cavalry ) of the
FOurth , cavalry was ordered by the commanding -
manding ofcer of Fort Mohave to pursue
a large band of these Apache Indians who
had committed atrocious murders , robbed
and plundered ranches and wagon traIns.
4 With forty men of his troop and Dan
. O'Leary , a noted guIde and scout n typical
western frontiersman , and a train of pack
. mules , with several days of provisions , says
National Bivouac he started In pursuit
the D , pursui
. Natonnl
.
of tIle blood-thirsty rascals.
ncachlng the Ilualapi valley on the morn-
V lag of January 13 , 1867 , the captain , with a
portion of the troop , numbering twenty-
three men , one scout and one packer . pro-
I ceeded on theIr journey toward a pass In the
V mountains , and arriving there after a hard
V and fatiguing journey , one of those deep ,
narrow , rocky canyons was struck that art '
_ _ _ _ so frequently met with In Arizona In this
, canyon the fresh trai of a war party of In-
dians was dIscoverd--unencumberod with
, women or pnpooses-evidentiy bent on n
I . foray of blood and booty , after a rest from
. theIr Journey. Darkness coming on did not
prevent the troops from tolowlng up the
- trai The order was quickly gh'en' to dis'
mount , nnd the horses being let In the
charge of J small squad of trooperB the rest
of the command , each loaded with 100.
' - rounds of ammunitIon , followed their gallant -
% butt cqmmander and O'Lcary , tbo scout ,
- heading \P the canyon.
. The next morning the fresher tracks and
_ ; signs were eeen. Suddenly , without warning ,
.c I bend to the right In the canyon brought the
v , Indian raeherlo , under the shelter of ahelv-
_ log rocks , In view. Immediately the com- ,
- , V manll was given by Captain Young , "Fle left ,
double quick , deploy Into linel" The trooper I
galanty responded , thereby throwing them.
- selves across the exit tram the rancherle
Dehlml awl on both sldel high and rugged
I- mountains prevented their rapid escape from
: the troopers' deadly aim
. The boys no sooner [ arme the deploy line
. than UIO Indians were roused , and they
poured a' ' yoley Into our ranks , and as rapidly
lS they could they climbed the rugged moun- '
_ taln sides , and dropping behind rocks , returned -
_ ( turned the troopers' hot fire.
The command , "Forward was given , and
- 1 one man the boys followed In pursuit up
_ _ _ the mountaIn sides , dropping behind rocks ,
Indian fashion , and turning over an Apache
nbW and then tl darkness approached , when
the Indians , having reached thu top ef the
? mountains , attempted a flank movement toward .
ward the rear of the troopers with the cvi-
dent intention of calltur'ng ' the horses of the
command In the rear ,
. The command was to retreat upon their
horses , and therefore they outwitted the
Indiana. :
The Inlllans , under Chief Cierum , numbered -
; bered about 150 , and they suffered a loss of
loventy.three kied and many wounded .
Iv The Indians got so severely thrashed hI

had detailed to go with him , the captain

nOlN ON TIE BATTLE FIELD
There arc many women In the country
" of the itegi-
who have the title of "DnuJhter o
m nt" because n child of some favorite
among his comrades , but there Is one of the
genuine article In l'ltsburg , says the Press
of that city ; Over her birthplace shot and
shell whooped l , welcom to her coming on
their errand or death. .o camp where she
was born was unter fire at the time , and thc
frt sound she hearth was the soul.harrowlng
noIse of battle. This "daughter of the regl-
man " now wears n gold badge , prcsentel to
her by the Eighth Pennsyl'anla reserves , In
which her father was a private soldier. The
badge has this iustraton upon It : "Sophia
Jane Richardson. Eighth Pennsylvania Ho
serves. Daughter of the Heglment. 18Gt. "
The peculiar history of the owner of the
medal stands without a paralel hi the his-
tory of , the civil war. In February , 1863 ,
the 11vision of which the regiment was a
part wa ordered for duty In the defense
of Washington , where theIr depleted ranks
could be filled. . In March , after the regi-
mont went Into camp nt Upton's hi , near
Alexandria , the wife of Charles 0. Richardson -
son , n private In company D , Journeyed tram
pltsburg to see her husband , who had ben
with the regiment sInce 1861. She remained
with him even after the divisIon was or-
dered to the front. On January 16 the
"daughter ef the regiment" was born.
On that day General Mosby , the famous
gucrln , made a raid on Alexandria about n
mile from the camp. Mrs. RIchardson was
In the house cit Phip ! HatcMoot , 1 rebel
who had been placed under guard. The
physicIans were attending her when the
alarm was gtven. Back o the house there
was "a bill upon whIch n union battery had
been planted. Soon the camp became the
object ot the attack , . and as If to protect the
mother and chiN the great guns began
belching out flames , sh'l and shot , directing
their nun over the Hatchfoot house nt the
advancing [ oe. During the heaviest of this
arllery fro the chilI was born. Infantry
and cavalry charged . down the lull past thc
house and bent the rebels back In dtsorder.
FOOLED THE YANKEES.
I
A slick blockade runner played It low
down' on a United States gunboat by a
laughable strategy , although the motive
which made It possible was highly credIt-
able to the American tars. The blockade
runner tried to enter the Pamlco river ,
but round a gunboat guarding the mouth
Ind preparing to give them a warm recep-
tion. Just then a common skiff left the
shore , propeled by two negroes , who
shouted aloud 'for help. They were speedily
followed In a lighter craft by B white man
and two bloodhouthie. The Yankee sailors
cheered the datkies , and n crew manned a
yawl to go to the aId of the escapIng con-
trabands. Thereupon the white man aban-
doncd the chase. But during the excl -
meat the blockade runner sped Into the
river around n bend , Into water too shallow -
low for'tho gunboat ; and then the United
States tars saw that , they had _ been , shrewdly
tricked. . .
A "SMAHT" JOKE.
The boys of the One Hundred 'and Seven-
tcenth' New York tel a goad joke In regard
to the "mustering In" of n darkey attached
to' that regiment , who became fearful he
would "be 'deprived of his pay unless he was
Joined to the service. A huge mustard pias-
ter was applied to his back , 'about' ' n foot be-
low where the rear buttons of his coat were
placed , and , under thb belief that all soldiers
were served In the fame manner as a sort
or miiary institution , be wore It until the
pain hecarne unendurable , at \vhlch time he
was formally ' declared "mustered In , " nc-
cording to the law In such case made and
provided. I that darkcy 'dldn1t ! get his
wages , It was not because he failed to suffer
for his country as a patriot duly put through
by the One Hundred and Seventeenth.

In Salt Lake City they nome streets as
nowhere else on earth For general con-
fusion to a ntwcomer no other system equals
It. In the long run It has advantages , for
It not only gullIes you to any stree with
pomp and ceremony , but It sharpens your
hearing and encourages mental concentration.
The street system ot Salt Lake originates
at Temple square , wherein stands tie taber-
nacle , the general assembly hal and the
temple width was thlrtx-slx years In build-
Ing. A wall len or twelve feet high encloses
the square. The streets passing It were
named East Temple , South Temple , West
Temple and North Templo.
\ East Temple street Is the principal business -
ness thoroughfare ef the city , aud its name
has been changed to Main street The first
street south of and parallel to South' Tom-
plo street Is named First South street .
East of Main street It Is East 1 Itt South

A more welcome and pleasing book of
verses has not Issued from the press for
many a year than these "love songs. " Such
1 flow of pathos , keen wit and delicate tenderness -
: deress , such humorous flights of fantasy ,
such a graceful tripping and tumbling of
words and thoughts and rhythms Is enough
to restore youth to the graybeard and cause
youth to forget the restraints that chain Its
Impetuous ardor. It Is folly to speak for the
eloquent and likewise Is It useless to attempt
to portray the images conjured by the verses

Christmas , " "A Stork , " "The Dead Dab2 "
"Flddle-Dee-Dee , " "The Duel , " and "The

Sweet little Sissy Knot
Tookout her pretty del to walk
Within the Walter lot.
While thus she fared from Ravenwood
Came InJuns o'er the plain ,
And seized that beauteous maid

And rent her del In twain.
Oh ' 'twas' piteous thing to hear
Her lamentations .wild ;
She tore her golden curls and cried : .
"My chid I my child ! my child ! "
Alas , what cared those Injun chiefs
How bitterly wailed she ?
They never had been mothers.

TRUE AMIRICAN IDEALS
The Words and Iced8 of Good \el Infu-
'
cnco National l'h'lraetcr
We have examples enough and to spare
that tend to evil , writes Theodore Roosevelt
In the Forum ; nevertheless , for our good
fortune , the men 'vbo have most ImpressEd
themselves upon the thought at the nation
have left behind them careers the influence
of which must tel for good. The unscrUlJ-
leus speculator who rises to enormous wealth
by swindling his neighbor ; the capitalist who
OPllresses the workIngman ; the agitator who
wrongs the workingman yet more deeply by'
trying to teach him to rely not upon himself ,
but partly upon the charity of Individuals
or at the state , and party upon mob
violence ; the man In public life who Is a I
demagogue or corrupt , and the newspaper .
writer who fails to attack him because of
his corruption , , or who slanderously assails
hIm when he Is honest ; the political leader ,
who , cursed by some obtlQuly of moral or of
mental vision , seeks to produce .sectonal or
social strleal these , thought , Important In
their day , have hitherto failed to leave any
iozting Impress upon the life of the nation.
The men who have profoundly Infueleed
the growth of our national character have
been In most cases precisely those men
whose influence 'was for the best and was
strongly felt as artnlonlsto to the worst
tendency : of the age. The great writers , who I
have written In prose or verse , have done
much for us . The great orators whose
btrnlng words on behalf ot liberty , of union ,
of honest government , have rung through
aUf leglslath'e India , have done even more.
Most at all has been done by the men who
huve' spoken to us through deeds and not
words , or whose words have gathered their
especial charm and significance because they
came from men who did speak In deeds. A
nation's greatness lies In its possibiity of
achievement In the present , and nothing
helps It more than the consciousness of
achievement In the past.
