THE FIGIIT AT MILK RIVER. aaaaaaa . An nmr'i ftraphlc Acconnt ofthe Hat tie With the ijtes n roloralo-Fla;htln Against l ire and Ballet. An officer beloneing to the troops be "ipged by Indians cm Milk river, Col., for six nays bntore they were relieved by General Merritt's force gives this vivid account of the attack on Major Thornburgh, and the subsequent thrill ing events in the beleagurcd intrench nients: The field of battle was admir ably chosen for defence by the Indians, ana had it not been for Maior Thorn burgh's advance guard, commanded by Lieut. Cherry, discovering the ambus cade, the entiro command would have been annihilated. lie saw a small party Indians disappear over a hill half a ile in front, and at once divided his party to reconnoiter, and only discovered them when he had flanked their posi tion by about 100 yards. Lieut. Cherry rode back at full speed witli one or two men who were with him, and notified Major Thornburgh, who had already begun the descent into the deep ravine which was intended to engulf the com mand. The Indians wcro dismounted, and lying down along the crest of the high, secp ridge for a hundred yards trom the point where the dendly assault Woul have commenced. The troops were withdrawn a short distance, dis mounted, and deployed in line of battle, witti orders to await the attack of the Indians. Lieut. Chcrrj was here ordered by Thornburgh to take a detachment of fifteen picked men and make a reconnoi sanceand communicate if possible with the Indians, as it was thought that they only desired to oppose his approach to ther agency, and would parley or have a big talk if they could bo communi cated with. Cherry moved out at a gal lop with his men from the right flank, and noticed a like movement of about twenty Indians from the loft oi the In dian position. He approached to within a couple of hundred yards of the Indi ans and took off his hat and waved it, but the response was a shot fired at him, wounding a man of his party, and killing his horse. This was the first shot, and was instantly followed by a volley from the Indians. The work had now begun in real earnest, and seeing the advantage of the position he held, Lieut. Cherry dis mounted his detachment and deployed along the crest of the hills to prevent the Indians flanking his position, or to cover the retreat, if it was found neces sary to retire upon the wagon train, which was then coming up slowly, Guarded by Lieut. Paddock, Company , Fifth Cavalry. Orders were sent to park the wagons and .cover them with the company guarding them. The two companies in the advance were Capt. Payne's Company F, Fifth Cavalry, and Capt. Lawson's, Company E, Third Cavalry, which wcro dismounted and deployed as skirmishers, Capt. Payne on the left and Capt. Lawson on the right. From Lieut. Cherry's position he could see that the Indians were trying to cut lum off from the wagons, and at once sent word to Major 1 hornburgh, who then withdrew the liny slowlv. keeninir the Indians in check until onoosite the , point which his men held, when, seeing uuik uiu miliaria were concentrating to cut off his retreat, dipt. Payne, with Company F, Fiftli Cavalry, was ordered to charge the hill, which lie did in val iant stylo, his horse being shot under lum and several of his men woundnd. The Indians having been driven from this point, the company was rallied on tne wagon tram. Mnjor Thornburgh then gave orders to Lieut. Clierrv to bold his position and cover Capt. Lawson's retreat, who was ordered to fall back slowly with the horses of his comnanv. Cherry called for volunteers of twenty men, who responded promptly and fought with desperation. There names will be given in a later dispatch, as nearly every man was wounded before lie reached the camp. Two men were killed. Cherry brought every wounded man in with him. Cant. Lawson. t.hn brave old veteran, displayed the greatest vuujium nuu vuuiago n ui ja,!; una retieai, sending up ammunition to Cherrv's men when, once, they were nearly without it.Mojor Thornburgh stai tedjback to the wagon train after giving his final orders to Capt. Payne to charge the hill and to Capt. Lawson and Lieut .-Cherry to cover the retreat. He must have been shot dead when barely half way there, as his body was seen by one of Capt. Lawson's men, life extinct, lying on his face. Captain Payne, then in command, at once set about having the wounded horses shot, to be used for breastworks, dismantling the wagons of boxes and bundles of bedding, corn and flour-sacks, which were quickly piled up for fortifi cations. Picks and shovels were used vigorously lor nigging mtrenchnients Meantime, a galling lire was enneen trated upon the command from all the surrounding bluff's which commanded the position. Not an Indian could fee seen, but tlie incessant cracks of their Sharps and Winchester rifles dealt fear- tui destruction among the horses and men. Tne groans of the dying and the agonizing cries of the wounded told what fearful havoc was being made among the determined nnd desperate command. Every man was bound to sell his life as dearly as possible. About this time a great danger was approach ing at a frightfully rapid pace. The red fiends, at the beginning of the fight, had Bet tire to the dry grass and to the sage brush to the windward of our position, and it now came sweeping down toward us, the flakes leaping high into the air, and immense volumes of smoke rolling on to ingulf us. It was a sight to make the stoutest heart quake, and the fiends were waiting, ready to give us a volley as soon us we were driven from our shelter. Now it reaches the flank, and blankets, blouses and empty sacks were freely used to extinguish the flames. Some of the wagons were set on fire, which required all the force possible to smother it. No water can be obtained, and the smoke is suffocating; but the lire passes, and we still hold our posi tion. In the meantime a constant volley is poured upon us. Captain Payne beinjj wounded for the second time, and Sergeant Do lan, of Company F, killed instantly. McKinstry and McKee are killed and many others wounded. Our greatest danger now is past. The men have now mostly covered themselves, but the poor horses and mules are con stantly falling about us. Just about sundown a charge was at tempted, but was repulsed, the Indians trying to drive off some of our horses which had broken loose. The attack ceased at dark, and soon every man was at work enlarging the trenches, hauling out the dead horses, caring for the wounded and burying the dead. At daylight the attack was resumed, and the firing of the sharpshooters was kept up every day and occasionally at night, sending us to our pits in a scramble. A very fortunate thing for us was that the Indians left us unmolested at night, with the exception of an occa sional shot to make us scatter to our pits. We were able at great risk to haul off our dead animals every night, other wise the stench would have been intol erable. A sally was made every night for water a distance of 200 yards from our intrenohments. Private Esser, of company, F, was shot in the face whilt out with a party after water. The In dians were only a lew yards away, and were driven off by a volley from the guard in the trenches. Our position, which was chosen hastily on th first day of the fight, was under a cross -fire, All our horses and mules, except twelve of the latter, were killed . We sheltered them as best we could with wagons, but no purpose Capt. Dodge nnd Lieut. Hughes, with Company D, Ninth Cavalry, came to our rescue on the fifth day at daybreak, alter a lorcea night s march or thirty five miles, from Rear river. Choer upon cheer rent the air when it was ascer tained who were coming. A lull in tha til ing enabled them to como In nnd shel ter their horses as well as possible. They took to tho fortifications quickly, wnen me auncK Tetioumoa lis niry. 1 1 ad tho heights been accessible, Cant. Dodge would have charged them with his company, while we covered them wilh our rifle-pits, but this was utterly impossible, the ascent being nearly per pendicular. All wo could do dur ing tho day was to keep a good lookout Irom the loop-holes, aim return the lire when any Indian showed his head. 1 his, however, was a very rare occurrence, as the Indians have rifle-pits nnd loop holes, lieforo dark every horse but. threo of Capt. Dodge's command had been shot down. General Merritt nrrived with his column of relief the next day. The loss to the whites was eleven killed nnd forty-threo wounded. Jokes from Harper's " Drawer." This shocking specimen of discour tesy occurred recently in Nortli Adams, one of the leading manufacturing towns in Massachusetts. A colporteur entered one of the manufactories, and asked the gentleman who seemed to be tho head man of the concern, " May I leave some tracts?" "Certainly," replied tho old gentle man ; " but please to leave them witli the heels toward the door." The Drawer lias the honor to present, to the lovers of excessive humor the fol lowing, whicli is the twenty-first anecdote in Taylor's nit ana Minn, ecutea oy Mr. W. Curew Hazlitt: A country fellow, who had not walked much in streets that were paved, came to London, where a dog came sud denly out of a house, and furiously ran out at him. The fellow stooped to take up a stone to cast at the dog, and find ing tiicmaii last rammon or pavea in tne ground, auotn he: " What a strange country am I in, where the people tie up the stones and let the dog loose! ' This comes to us as a fresh anecdote of Father Tavlor, the famous sailor- nreaeher of lsoston. At one of his praver-mectings an opulent merchant came in to honor the meeting. He spoke a few words extolling the kindness ot the Boston people in aiding Mr. lay lor to build his chapel, and their considera tion of poor sailors. As soon ns the great man had iinished, Mr. i ay ior ouietlv asked : " Is there any other old sinner from up town who would like to say a word belore we go on with the meeting!"' Iso other old sinner re sponded. The following pleasant thing in the way of definition occurred a few days since in one of the public schools of a city in Massachusetts. .A member of the committee. Captain . was visit ing the school, and the class having read from Webster's address at Ply mouth, the captain asked the class, "Who was Webster?" One boy said " a statesman," another " an orator." " But what is a statesman?" asked the captain. "A man who goes around making speeches," answered a boy. "That is not quite right," replied the captain; " I go around sometimes mak ing speeches, but I am not a statesman." A bright little fellow spoke up: "I know. It is a man who goes around making good speeches." Managing Cattle on the Plains. The management of a vast herd of cat tle upon the open plain is a difficult and hazardous feat. It requires both nerve and an intimate knowledge of cattle nature to ride into the midst of the thronging, pushing beasts, and single out tho?e destined for the corral. Should a panic ensue, both hoise and rider will bo borne along before the resist less tide to certain destruction. A herd has been stampi ded at the sight of a man dismounted from his horse. They regard the man and beast as a single creature, whose will dominates, and to see this being take himself apart is a lit tle more than bovine nature can stand. As a general thing, the animals are quite docile, and ready for the " round ing up." Possibly they may look for ward to it with some instinctive pleas ure at the grand sight of their own nu merical strength. Stand herewith me upon this grassy knoll. Beneath us, at yon three scrub oaks, is the station agreed upon. From three directions we may see long dotted skirmish lines growing from the little black bead-like spots in a row into moving beasts. The lines rapidly become more dense, gath ering up the individuals which stop grazing, look with wondering eyes a moment, and then, evidently having re flected, " Lot's see, this is.Tune, isn't it? they're rounding us up," obediently join the grand advance. Those knowing ones who have been under the brand may have some vague remembrance of its torture. Tho " Mavericks." as un claimed cattle have been called, and the calves iiave yet to feel tho terrible iron as it burns it way through tho quivering cul icle. It is an old Texan story, tho origin of the name "Maverick," buc perhaps it will bear transplanting to tho East. A certain well-known "colonel" of the name bought an island in one of the rivers, and stocked it with a few cat tle, proposing to keep his animals where he could find them when he wanted beef or hides. Business entanglements claimed the worthy colonel's attention and in course of time ho well-nigh for got his island colony. Rounders began to find among their herds ancient nulls and cows, all guiltless of owner's mark. They came to be counted by thousands, and it was finally discovered that they were runaways from Colonel Maverick s island. The old colonel was informed by tlie herders of his good luck, and told, anion" other thingi, that some two thousand nulls were subject to his orders. The last thing recorded in con nection with this legend is the colonel's excited speech upon this occasion: " For Heaven's sake, ooys, go and help yourselves!" Thereafter any animal found without a brand was called a "Maverick," and duly stamped with the finder's mark. Harper's Monthly. The Dashing Lulu. Mrs. Leonard Rice, of Davenport, la., has gone to London to meet the sod who was kidnapped from her thirteen years ago in Boston. Mrs. Rice was a widow then, and she heard nothing of her boy till last year, when she found him out through a personal in the New York Herald. Two circusmen stole the boy, then nine years old, and, taking him to England, made an acrobat and rider of him, and then dressed him out as a great female equestrienne. The youngster went into business on his own account as soon as be became twenty-one as the " dashing and beautiful Lulu," and has now sent for his mother to come and see his London home, which is shared by a wife and child. When a pedestrian has to walk up and down the room all night with a squal ling baby, he generally makes more laps than he does smiles. Toronto Graphic. A WONDERFUL CLOCK. The Cnrlona Machln that an Altoona Man ha been Working on for Seven teen Years. For Hie past seventeen vears a gentle man of this city has been engaged in the construction of a curious clock which ho expects to have completed by tlie firstof January next. A representative of tho Vail accidentall v eamo neross it the other day nnd was kindly given tho following descript ion of it by tho inventor who ex acted a promise that his name should not bo given to tho public at tho present lime: It consists ot slxfy-fivo automatic fig ures and workmen. Tho base represents a hill of Htono upon which is a largo structure. To the left is a beer garden with beer on draught which ono figure occasionally draws and passes to another near by. Two more figures, a lady and a gentle man. are si nted beneath a tree in tho at titude of lovers. The lady is reading and at. intervals turns her head toward her companion as if for his approval. The next representation is of an old fashioned linseed-oil mill. Here are workmen engaged in tho various parts of tlio business, one carries a largo vessel nnd empties it into tlie hoppers to ho firessed by the stampers On tlie outside s a carpenter, hatchet in hand, who as cends a ladder in a perfectly natural manner, stopping when half way up, ns if to look over the mill to see that all is right. Adjoining this is a blacksmith shop, in the background of which nre work men heating iron, who change the piece after allowing il to heat. A man is also engaged in shoeing a horse and strikes his first blows gently; lie gradually in creases them until the last is astrong ono, calculated to drive the nail home. An other is nt the anvil nnd occasionally rests when his wife brings him some re freshments. A fountain plays near by and in a small summer house where a professor is reading and when he becomes excited over some passage, raises his hand and brings it down upon tho page in nn ex cited and emphatic n.anner. Below is a workman engaged in splitting stone. He strikes repeated blows upon a wedge until the stone cracks, falls away, and then replaces itself. Above the black smith shop is a saw mill where a log is being sawed. When the end is reached the boards are taken away and the flume replaced. Still above this is a shoe factory where a half dozen men and women are engaged in the different duties requisite for the manufacture of shoes. One is waxing, another cutting out, another pegging, another sewing and still another bevel ing. OVer the linseed mill is tho gristmill In front is a miller dressing a stone; an other comes out of the room and empties a large vessel into the hopper. As the flour is ground and the bags accumulate a man carries them away. A largo ele vator bucket carries up the wheat and dumps it into a bin, making but ono as cent to the before mentioned man's two. To the left is a dwelling house, in tho kitchen a servant is at work, who passes about inside and out to attend to her du ties. Upon the top is tho resiJenee of the owner of the respective mills. Here visitors occasionally call, with whom the mistress shakes hands and talks about her neighbors. The clock proper crowns tho structure. It is in all about five feet in length and four feet high. Each figure lias a different motion, nnd some have two motions, requiring very complex machinery to run the whole. Two buckets of water furnish an unending supply of power, as it is used over and over again. The saw and grist mill are run by this water falling on an over-shot wheel. Thence the water falls on another wheel which runs tlie linseed mill. Tho water and all is kept in motion by an eighty-nine and one-half vound weight. It is truly a work of art, and over seven teen years were occupied in its construc tion. Altoona (Pa.) Call. How Buffalo Bill Served a Writ. Buffalo Bill in his autobiography tells tho following story of his official career in the far West: "One morning a man eamo rushing up to my house and said he wanted a writ of replevin to recover posession of a horse which a stranger was taking out of the country. I had no blank forms, and had not yet received the statutes of Nebraska, to copy from, so I asked the man : " ' Where is the fellow who has got your horse? '" " He is going up tlie road, and is about two miles away,' he replied. '"Very well,' said I, 'I will get tlie writ ready in a minute or two.' " I saddled my horse, and then taking up my old reliable rifle, Lucrctia, I said to the man : ' That's the best writ of replevin that I can think of; como along, and we'll get that horse or know the reason why.' " Wt soon overtook the stranger, who was driving a herd of horses, and as we came up to him I 'said: " ' Hallo, sir, I am an officer, nnd have an attachment for that horse,' and at the same time I pointed out thennimal. '"Well, sir, what are you going to do about it? ' he inquired. "'I propose to take you and the horse back to the post,' said I. " ' You can take the horse, but I haven't the time to return with you.' " You'll have to take the time, or pay the costs here and now,' said I. " ' How much are the costs? ' " 'Twenty dollars.' " 'Here's the money,' said he, as ho handed me the greenbacks. I then gave him a little friendly ndvice, and told him that he was released from custody. He went on his way a wiser and poorer man, while the owner of the horse and myself returned to the fort. I pocketed the twenty dollars, of course. Some people might think it was not a square way of doing, business, but I didn't know any better just then. I had several little cases of this kind, and I became better posted on hiw in the course of time." in Districts lormeriy ICavanecI By fever aud ague, immunity from tlio dreaded scourge is enjoyed by those who have rendered their systems miliaria proot with Host e tier's Stomach Bitters, the best preventive nnd remedy.

Several mornings ago a boy of about fifteen years old, a nephew of Mr. Hnr rison's, an inmate of his family, went out to tho barn to feed the horses. When he entered the loft he discovered two large eats lying on tlio straw asleep. Boy like, he took up a bundle of fodder and, creeping up, struck both of them at one blow. There was something of a disappointment in the result. The cats, instead of running away, sprang at the boy with a lury that startled him. Having nothing with which to defend himself ho tumbled around, while the cat squalled, clawed and bit him un mercifully. His cries did not bring as sistance, and the boy sprang toward the laddci leaning against the rafters, and ascended to the roof of tlie house. The cats followed him, nnd, despite his ollbrts to keep them away, bit and clawed him frightfully. Realizing his ladder folly, he jumped down on the hay, the cats following him. By this time he was bleeding very freely, and his coat was almost torn in threads. Seizing ono of the cats by the hind legs, he attempted to beat it to death against the wall, but the. animal doubled around and began tearing his arm. Shaking it off, he ran to the ladder lead ing down. The nnimnls followed him. Just as he readied the ladder he dis covered n monkey-wrench lying on the floor. Seizing it he turned, dealt the foremost cat a blow between tho eyes, and before it could recover mashed its head. The other animal still fought wfth fury. With a heavy blow the boy stretched out the remaining c.vt, nnd beat out its brains. Catching them by the tails lie marched to the house to give nn account of his battle. (LUllc Lock (Ark.) Gatittc.
