Brotberton, killed the bead of tbe family,
hla two adult sons, and a hired man, and
laid aieaa to the ranch houae in which lira.
Brotberton bad tcken refuse with her two
little bcya. he waa a woman of greet
courage, and with her own hands bar
ricaded all the prsslbie entrance te tbe
building, armed both tbe boy a with rl9.
and took one herself, and held the fort for
twenty-feur h-ur, killing two of the band
and wounding eta.
As soon as the Indians had raiaed the
siege and made off. lira. Brotberton end
her sons slipped out of tlie cabin, and, be
tween walking and running, managed to
gain a military camp, about twenty miles
away, and rave the alarm. General Canby.
tbe local commander, at once organised an
expedition under Lieutenant Colonel Frank
Wheaton now a retired major general to
foroe the Indians out of the 1m va beds,
where tbey were intrenching themselves,
and back to their reservation. Wheaton
appeared te have thought rather lightly of
his task, for, in a letter acknowledging
receipt of his orders, he aaid: "I have
men ready to start for tbe lava beda. All
are nihuaias:ic. We will meet Captain
lack about day after tomorrow, and I
think that air. Jack will soon report at
Fort Klasnath, lashed to the pommel of my
saddle. He was so sure of a epecdy cap
ture of the whole bend that be urged that
the Indian office make the uecersry ar
rangements la advanoe for taking care of
tbe prisoners.
He bad counted without his host. True,
all hla preparations had been carefully
aade for surrounding Jacks stronghold
and attacking It at daybreak tbe morning
after the arrival of tbe troopa. but Jacs
was too much of a general to submit te that,
bout sunset, and without warning, he
gave the signal to Lis warriors to begin
tbe battle themselves. The Moducs were
tairty wen armed and understood handling
tbetr weapona, and from behind every jut
ting lump of lava cam. a shot which told.
Tbe troopa, taken wholly by surprise, re
turned the fire wildly, and a soon as night
-fell were glad to retire, with tbe loaa of
eight killed and twenty wounded men. and
thirty head of boraea, abandoning their
wagon train entirely and retreating te a
ranch thirty miles distant.
De-fet of tbe White ftalaiere.
The result of this Bret eooounter, which
occurred la January, UV spread dismay
throughout tba region. Relnf pros men is
were harried forward from the nearest
paiata. until body of sue addliioua regu
lars bad reported te Wbsaton. and Colonel
A. C. GUiem of the cavalry followed to
take command. Meanwhile, however, the
li of the east, at tba Instance of
tug advsoata el tba "pesos pulley,"
had recently come into rogue, made so
loud an outcry against further bloodshed
that the Washington authorities counter
manded Gillem's orders for a fresh expedi
tion, and tbe president appointed A. B.
Meacham of Oregon. A. at. Rose n borough
of California and a Methodist clergyman I
named Thomas as a peace commission to I
treat with Jack and try to bring him to
terms by moral suasion. General Canby
was Instructed to Join this commission and
teiet It In th reon. j
The commission approached the lava beds
In February and sent in a menseriger with I
a flag of truce to invite Jack to a peace '
pow-wow. Jack was 111 disposed to parley,
especially as he hud long cherished a
grudge against Meacham individually. But
attached te tbe government party was a
ranchman nroed Falrchild. whom tbe Mo
docs knew and had always liked, and the
chief sent word out that he would meet
Fairchild and another white man named
Steele of Treka. Cal., on a certain day.
which he named. If they would come with
only a few companions of their own choos
ing, unarmed and without any soldiers.
Steele was a lawyer who had once de
fended a group of Modocs prosecuted for
rattle stealing, and they regarded him as
friendiv. Fairchild and Steele accepted
the Invitation, though realising the haaard
ous character of tbe enterprise, and se
lected three newsiper correspondents for
their rompaniona, but Imposed the condi
tion that live unarmed warriors should be
sent out by Jack to act as the escort for
the white party. General Canby also sup
plied them with a few hundred cigars to
distribute among the braves before talk
began.
Hooker Jim. Bosm Charley. Bogus
Charley, and Bhacknasty Jim constituted
the escort that came out to meet tbe
whites, and Bear-Faced Charley. Jack s
head lieutenant, joined the party later
The parleying crew were led into the
heart of the lava leds by a tortuous and
hidden trail, and found themselves In a
natural fastness formed by volcanic action.
The took with them some paf-k animals
laden with bacon, flour and other edibles
as a peace offering for the Indians. Before
starting Steele addressed a few words of
warntcg to tbe newspspnr correspondent
A Dsssefesi I adrrtakla.
"Gentlemen." said be, "this undertaking
but be made a esccess or fatal failure
by The degree of discretion you show. Keep
ceo.. Io not talk te Ute Indiana leave all
that te Fatrrhild and myself. Submit to
any indignity, snainiaia a conciliatory air
throughout, and de what we d without
question. If Captain Jack aaks whs you
are. we will expleia that yuu are bn wbe
write fur the newspapers that pass under
the cy of the Great Father , and that you
will take careful note and report faith-
fully any grievances he may have to make j
known." These Instruction were obeyed j
to the letter. j
The Indians were far from cordial In i
their greeting, but atwtained from any
overt act of hostility. They did, however, I
without se much as a grunt of apprecia
tion, make off with the provisions the ;
whites had brought and feasted on these
while the guests were left to cheer their
stomachs with a little coffee. A formal i
council of some duration was held, at i
which, after Jack had opened the dlncue- j
sion with s short talk. Fairchild and Bteele ;
assured the Indians that the Great Futi.er
waa much grieved at the way his red
children had acted and would feel still
worse on learning that this peace commis
sion was not going to be kindly received,
Ja"k rerponee was a tirade ag .inet
Meacham, whom he denounce for rome
reason as having hrougl.t all their troubles
upon the Modoca. But at the eud, t'.ough
with a savage and threatening gleam lu nls
eye. he announced his willingness to me.t
the Great Father s emissaries bye and bye.
Night having fallen, the atilte vixliors
were informed that they were expected to
remain where tbey were till morn;! g
They were distributed among certain promi
nent Indians as bedfellows and kept under
close guard. In the morning another coun
cil was held, and then Jaik let them de
part, calling out as tbey drew a long
breath and hurried away: "I'eacLam you
tell Meacham me want him come. Me
want see Meacham." Although the word
were uttered with aa attempt at sobriety
of manner the bystanding Indians un
doubtedly placed a special Interpretation
uiwn them, judging by the coarse laughs
and grimaces with which they were re
ceived. SI a ! of ike raasstselosera.
a few weeks later a council waa arranged
between the Modocs and the peace commis
sioners. Canby. Meacham. Thomas, a white
man named T'yer and Frank Riddle, an in
terpreter, met Jack, Boston Charley, Borus
Charley. Sliacknasty Jim, Hooker Jim.
etchunchin, Ellen Man, Tobey and B'su
Jim. AH the negotiators were supposed te
be unarmed. After some preliminaries
Jack proceeded to slate the terms under
which his band would resume their normal
relatione vith the government. He had got
as far aa te name the site which be wished
lb government t give them for home,
and the own mission had made partial
promise that they should have It, when
suddenly be thrual his band Into bis bosom
and drew forth a revolver, which be aimed
at Canby s bead, at tbe same moment pull
ing tbe tnger. Only the cap exploded. He
tried another barrel at once, and sent a
J bullet through tba general tarsia. Canby
bad tried to escape, but Jack and Ellen's
Man had pursued him, and as be fell thry
stripped him of his clothing. Then Ellen's
Man put another bullet Into his bead. Dyer
and Riddle broke and ran. Iyer covering
his retreat with a pistol, which be had till
then concealed; both escaped,
Boston Charley bad drawn a revolver oa
Dr. Thomas st tbe same time that Jack
had attacked Canby. The minister received !
the buliet In his breast. Just above the
heart, and dropped upon his knees, begging j
hie assailants to shoot no more, as he was i
already wounded unto death. Their re- !
s;onse was to push 1dm over and mock him j
about his religion, shouting at him: "why
don't your medicine turn the bullets? Isn't
It strong enough?" Finally Bogus Charley,
placing the muxxle of a frun against the
tying man's head, blew a hole through it,
whhe his lijj were moving In prayer. The
murderers strlpied his body also.
Meacham, who hed been simultaneously
attacked by Schonchin. made a hard fight
for his life. He was shot In different parts
of the lire and head, and fell, as the In
dians supposed, dead. Hs was bald; but
Host on Charity, who was resolved to have
his scalp in some way. whipped out dull
potketknlfe and hacked wsr at the un
co end skin till a sqsw whom the victim
had once befriended Interfered, shouting
that the soldiers were coming. The Indians
engaged In tie bloody business scattered
tnd Meachain's Lfe was saved by the ruse,
though he was always a semi-invalid after
that and disfigured out of ail semblance te
his former sell
General Jefferson C. Tavis took the field
against the Modocs and after a stubborn
f.gbt captured the band. Jack and three of
his most savage followers were hanged.
The rest were gent te the liidiui Territory

would have to stay there taenty-five year
Many of them died In captivity. Toward
the close of tiielr long sojourn a few of the
band had wandered back into the country
from which they came, thtir spirit broken
and their bodies weakened by the climatic
change te which they bad been subjected.

fell victim to consumption without seeing
their old home again.

had been a story of maaaacr of set tiers
by the Modocs in the early 'Sos, and the
vengeance taken for this by Ben Wright
and a company of whit frontiersmen, a he
