CnUMMIXGWITHAXAPACIIE Never go chumming with an Apache, ays the San Francisco Arrjttnaut. You smile at such xtrauge advice? Well, I might have smiled at it once myself. But we are all creatures of circumstance, and I was a teud .'rfuot then, anyway. This is how I chummed iu with my little Indian: 1 was swinging my red and blue clubs under the peier tr at the back of the railroad station. This I did because I had a theory that exercise wan good for a man living ouadu-rt. The lazy Mexi cans and most of the Americans there abouts hud no ruddy glow on their faces. They were all sallow. 'What I wanted was a ruddy glow. My red and blue clubs circled about very prettily that day, nud the ruddy glow came j also a dripping epidermis and a big desire to sit down iu the shade of the peper tr-e and blow tobacco smoke. The tree was a small one. When the btatiou tank ran over, which was not often, its roots received a little moisture. So it grew, slowly. As soon as I dropped my clubs a squeal of disgust went up from somewhere, and us I turned about I saw a small browu head dart behind a cactus lined rock. I said nothing, but leaned buck on my seat, pulled my sombrero down over my luce, auu slii' in mod sleep, with one half closed eye ou the rock and the big cactus shrubs. No use. You can not get an Apuche out of his hole that way. Next day, with my beartiful exercise theory still bristling iu my brain, I turned quickly, while in the midst of my club swinging, and saw the wide open eyes and gasping mouth of the cuuuiug est little savage I had ever beheld. He sprang about and fled behind tho rock, but not too quickly for me to read "XXX Family Flour" in large red letters ou hie back. His one short garment was a cot ton sack, with holes cut through it for his head and arms. "Come, Tads," I cried, christening him in that fleeting second with a name that stuck to him all his life, "out of that!" And I jumped behind the rock, swinging an open hand that did not grasp the flour sack as I had intended it should. Where was the wee savage! Like a lizard he liad darted from sight somewhere iu that little patch of rocks and cactus, though there did not appear to be cover enough there to conceal n jack rabbit. "The spines must scratch him," I thought as I looked at the prickly cactus ; but I did not know then how Apaches put up with such small irritations. Not wanting to give the boy unnecessary tor ture I went back to my clubs. Throwing my eyes about again I caught another fleeting glimpse of the brown head as it dodged behind the rock. Tads must have been disappointed next day, for there was to club swinging under the pepper tree. The duties of telegraph agent lay too heavily upon me, and the sun lay too heavily ujion the desert. I saw Tad steal away from hu lair about two hours after my usual ex ercise time and walk down the sand drifts with a dejected air, his one garment flapping in the hot wind. A wild nature like his was proof against such snares as the toothsome confection, the golden orange, or the mealy peanut. I found that out by trial iu the course of the next week. Hut an old jackknife won him over. That was something his Apache mind could grasp. It was n greater delight to him than the red and blue clubs. Sworn friends from that duy were Tads and I. His talk was a ridicu lous mixture of English, Spanish, and Apache, and his voice was very throaty. But I understood him. Indian like, he said little. It was, therefore, easy to get along with him, He would sit for hours on a high stool, listening to the "tunk-tunk-tunk" of my souudur. Tho tclpgraph was an awful mystery to him at iirst, and it squelched his imagination ; but he solved tho prob lem at lost. A man away off over the mountain spoke with his finger to me and I spoke back to him. That was his idea of it, and it was not such a bad one, either. Thehummingsof the wires over head were the voices of people with pon derous lingers, but they were not of thia world. How tho cowboys laughed when they saw Tads and me iu the stationl "That tenderfoot's a queer one, " they sa'd of tne. The despised Apache could not crawl jnto their hearts no, not even if he were a 0 year old. "He'll steal everything the tenderfoot's got, " they pleasantly avorrod. But ha did not. When Tads loft the station of an even ing his little brown feet pattered straight over the road to the wickiups, a halt milt) away. In lime he wore a narrow trail over to the huts. "IV.ty veil," was what Tads would grunt to me every dsy w hen hi? came ehyly into the offlca and I greeted him with ft friendly "How-de-do?" Then he would shrug his should ! iu a way that wrinkled tho thrc6 Xs into such be wildering folds that you could not hav read them unions you had known what they were beforehanl. One day while he was meandering about the plttce, grui. ting quietly to him self, ho upaot one of try butU'ry j.rs. "Ta l,' I criod an.rily, for the dmort's breath was hot upon me and was irri tating enough, let alone spilled vitriol, "you're a little beast! Skip out of here, or I'll take a stick to you!" Then arose a great howl from Tads, and he kept on howling until an Apache woman came over the sauds from wick iups and gathered him up in her arms. She was his mother. She eyed me sus piciously and walked away with her highly demonstrative burden. Of course I regretted my hot language and wanted the little beggar back again. It was so lonely there ou the desert. The wire wailod so heart brokenly, while the sun beat down so fiercely in the daytime, and the coyotes jelled so dolefully at night. How he h-J crept into my heart, to be sure! It wa several days before we were on satisfactory terms again. Tails wanted to be a white man. lie wanted to tnnke "talk marks" on "popper" with a feather I sometime used a quill pen, be it re marked and he wanted to speak with his finger. Well, 1 did manage to tea h him a few letters from a railroad yU t, and he learned to drawl out "T-a-d-s" in a droll way. Wi.h perseverance that w as really startling, I afterward took him in an uncertain way through a page or two of "Can You See the Fat Ox, "and so on, wherefore his heart was glad. "I'll lie white mans, heap sure," he de clared in his bullfrog voice, after he had accomplished this wonderful feat. Great distress reached Tad's soul on the fatal day when the wickiups were taken down and the trilie mounted their mus tangs to go over tbe hills. Apaches had to search all over the station to Hud Tads. At last they hauled him forth from under my bunk, screaming like mad. Of no avail were his screams; of no avail were lils cry, "Me yanter to stay wid him ; me yanter lie w'ite ina..s!" Apache papas are unbending and Apache mammas are inexorable. Away they whisked Tads, leaving behind bin. a Underfoot with a queer feeling in his throat. " Well, the boy has the instincts of a white man," I said, for I was proud of what I fancied I had made of him, "and he'll be a shining light among those devilish people of his. If we had a few more like him to put among them, the Apache question would settle itself, and w e could set our soldiers to hoeing corn. " I lien 1 took up the restless life of acity man, and a big and busy railroad oftlce claimed a good share of my attention for the next 10 years. Yes, it was fully that long before I again set foot upon the desert. Our train stopped at the old station. How the pepper tree had grown, to be sure! In iu shade sat a cavalry sergeant with a half dozen of his men about him, and in their midst were three Indian prisoners who were beiug takon to the fort to be shot. They were tierce looking fellows, those three savages. There was one, the young est, who wan a perfect demon, the soldiers said. "Killed three women and two babhs down at Mustang Wash last Tuesday,' said the sergeant to me, "just after one of them had given him his breakfast, too. Ho is a young one, not more than 17, 1 should say, but he's the worst red devil 1 over saw. " Gazing at the boy captive, a strange feeling stole over me. The stolid fact was oddly familiar. "His name? Blessed if I know," said the sergeant; "what do you call yourself, young one?" he asked, giving hint a not too delicate poke with the toe of his boot. "Me? Why my name's Tads!" grunted the boy. "Talks pretty good English for a wild devil who has been over the Mexican border so long, doesn't he?" asked the sergeant, turning to me. But I said nothing. Blight Make Small Beginning. Ho was a big, blustering follow, and when he stepped into the store the pro prietor hurried to wait on him. His pur chases amounted to about two dollars and a half, and when they were all wrapped up he said : "Chargo it to ine. I'll drop in to-morrow and settle it." "No," said the little proprietor. "What Period the big man. "Don't you know who I am? I'm " "I know that," said the tho proprietor. "But that is all I know about you. I can't charge it. " "You can't? Why, I cai buy ynur blamed store. " "Yes," acqulesod the little man mildly. "Including the building und lot." "Yes." "And you won't charge it then tome?" "No." The big niau seemed lo twell up with wrath. "Iok here," ho cried. Til buy youi whole outfit. I'll show you whether I am good for two dollars and a lnif or not. Just you begin to figure on tho price and I'll come in to-morrow nud take the shop. I'll show you what I am worth. " "You might begin now," eaid the little man. "What?" " You might begin to-day. You might buy thut package now and you won't have so much on your miud for to-morrow, I'm willing to knock off the in terest on the two dollars and a half for a day. " Then the people had to come In front the street to prevent a disturbance. A MOHI AOOOMPI.iaillD EHITTIH.
