The road also was practically rebuilt under his direction. Who will be the successor to the presi dency has not yet been announced, but it culated he was knifed. He was elected by delegation.

The Indians made charge after charge upon the troops, who had all dismounted except the field effi cers. Henry had command of the left battalion of Royalls force. Cool as an Iceberg he rode up and down the thin line steadying and holding his men. .At one time by a daring charge he rescued sn imperiled company under a brother off! cer. At last. In one of the furious attacks of tha Bloux, he was shot In the face.

FAKE LONG DISTANCE RIDER eMassaaSKSB Story of the Wild Trooper tress Ok lahoaaa, aad How It Started. A few day. ago dispatches announced the arrival at West Point, N. T., of a tired and travel stained trooper, the first of a dosen said to have started from soma army poet in Oklahoma on a trial of speed and endurance of man and horse. A distance ot 2,000 miles, so the story went, was covered in thirty-nine days. Eo much reliance was placed on tha story that sev eral newspapers discussed It seriously in the editorial columns, pronouncing It an achievement surpassing long distance records of foreign cavalrymen. The true inwardness of the story 1. re lated by the New Tork Bun as follows: The story got to West Point not only in the New Tork newspapers, but by word of mouth from several nearby places, at all of which tha same horseman had partaken of refreshments and had told his hosts of bis wild gallop from the west Btrange to aay, the tale arrived without Its hero. A cavalryman did come cantering Into camp, however, with a tale of mining the boat at Garrisons the night before and of having had to pass the night outside of the barracks. This cavalryman, like the hero of the tale, was travel stained. He was also rather wear'. A hard ride the day before on an errand for an officer, followed py night spent outside the garrison, with "taps" sounding rsther late. Lad left trace. When questioned, however, this cavalry man denied that he had spent the night ln Newburgh. After that denial be was elo quently, silent The garrison did not know what to make of the story when they first heard it No Information had come from Washington or eewhere that such a rider was to be ex pected, but every one was prepared to arrange a cordial, if Impromptu, program of greeting for him. That was before tbe cavalryman arrived. When tbe cavalry man, who was Private Equl. of the de Uichment at West Point, did arrive from the mission upon which he was sent a suspicious smile went s round the post It has been going around ever sinoe. Private Equi's experience and that of the mysterious horseman ar alike in that both arrived at the Garrisons ferry tos late for the last boat and signaled tbe poet that they might be expected the next morning Private Equis mission was to deliver a horse at Greenwich.
