WOW JERRY RODE
THE WHITE STEER.
A Boy'a Advent-ire With the Eedskins.
itv t. c. n.vKnArtJii.
rhiiit-as Tonikin wusone of the little
land of hardy pioneers who 1 .raved
the perils of the unbroken wilderness
with General liufus Tutnum in 1SS7,
and at List rettchctl the sheltering for
ests of Ohio.
The company consisted of forty-seven
people and their axes ntii; for many
days while they erected Mock houses
in the Indian-infested country where
now stands the city of Marietta not far
from ISIcniicrhassctt's famous Island in
that iK-autiful river.
A year or two after the initial settlt
meiit in the wilderness more settlers ar
rived, and among these were I'hineas
Tonikins' family, whom he had left U
hind hi.Conneeticut. More cabins were
needed for the new arrivals, and they
were soon Imllt ; and U-forv lonjr tjuite
a settlement had sprung up tin the site
of the now pretty city.
The family of Tomkins consisted of
himself, his wife and a laiy named
Jerry.
The laiy, at the time V5, gave all
promise of u-ing a hardy youth, and
stain he knew the trails of the forest as
well as the oldest hunter. He took
many long trips up and down the river
in a light canoe, anil several times he
had run down a deer which had taken
to the water when hard pressed hy the
dogs.
In course of time the settlement had
collected a good herd of cattle, which
furnished it with a change of food and
supplied it with milk. Three of these
Itclonged to Pheneas Tomkins, and
among them was a large white steer
called "Snowlmll."
Sometimes Jerry went out to drive
them in, and on these occasions he
generally mounted to the back of the
white steer and rode him like a horse.
SuowUill seemed to like this, and now
and then he would come down the trail
at full gait, which was almost as good
as that of a keen ravr.
One afternoon in the late autumn,
when the woods were putting on their
crimson garments, Jerry Tomkins
started out to bring in the herd as usual.
Humors of an Indian uprising had
reached the settlement, but as no sav
ages had been seen prowling in the
ncighUirhood, they were not credited,
and the men had gone iilxmt their du
ties without alarm.
The Connecticut Uy found that the
herd had strayed a little father from
home than usual, and la-fore he knew
it he was two mile from the nearest
cabin. Already the woods were dotted
with the lengthening shadows thrown
by the trees, and he heard the night
owls hooting.
At last from a knoll in a small open
ing he saw the cattle grazing near the
river, and he started forward.
The moment the herd saw him there
was a movement in his direction, and
the I my ran up to Snowball and patted
him playfully tm the sleek shoulders.
The white steer turned his head and
met Jerry's eye.
"How are you for a ride home?"
akcd the Uiy, and at the same time he
vaulted ujam Snowliall's back and
struck him with his oik-ii hand.
The cattle understood, and left olf
grazing and turned their heads toward
the settlement.
Xot a sound broke the quietude of
the woods a-t they started m. Jerry
kept Snowlmll at his place at the head
of the procession. lut all at once the
white steer stopped and liegan tosnilV
the air. He would lift his hesid and
dilate his nostrils in a manner which
was soon imitated by the others, and
the lay began to fear that danger lurk
ed near them.
"Move along, Snowball, old fellow,"
cried Jerry, eager to lie going, as the
shadows were getting longer; by the
time they reached home it would be
quite dark.
The next moment, aud almost before
the command had left the boy's lijis,
something whizzed past his head and
struck a tree almost in their path.
Jerry Tomkins knew at once that an
arrow had lieeti fired at him he had
but to look to see the feathered shaft
rpjivering in the lark. It was a long,
slen ler shaft, with his wild turkey
feathers tied on the sinews after the
manner of the red arrow-makers, and
the sight of it was enough to stir the
blood of the Connecticut I my.
The whizzing of the arrow had start
led the cattle, esjiecially Snowball, and
a moment later all were rushing over
the trail with their heads aud tails erect
and the big white steer leading them
was in a quiver of excitement A per
fect shower of arrows hurled through
the air and several struck the hiuduitrst
of the herd.
It was now a race for life, as the boy
saw, and as he fell forward on the
white steer's twek, he dug his heels in
to the heated flanks ami urged him to
his upmost sjieeiL
The trail was not very brood, lmt it
was defined enough to enable the herd
to keep it Single file," led by the big
white steer, the cattle rushed along,
followed by at least 20 Indians paiuted
for the warpath and armed, exerting all
their strength, and Jerry had but to
look liack now and then to see that
they were likely to catch up with the
herd and head them off.
Snowball kept his place at the head
of the herd despite the frantic efforts
ESTABLISHED 1827.
AVEDXESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1894.
the cattle behind to rush past him in
their fright Arrow after arrow hurl
ed through the air, and now and then
a loud snort or a lllow would tell that
one had found a lodgment in some un
fortunate creature.
Already Jerry hud lost his coonskin
cap and after it had been trampled U
neath the hoofs of the hen! a young In
dian picket! it up with great glee. Jerry
heard his shouts as he held the cap up
to his companions, who replied with
shouts.
Jerry looked Iwck once when the trail
turned abruptly to the right He saw
he had but 1 cuttle at his heels when
he should have Had (ill, and he noticed
that three of those left had feathen-d
shafts sticking in their hides.
But he saw more than thisand it was
enough to blanch his cheeks. One
young buck was fast getting abreast
which the heard, and Jerry saw that he
was as agile as a deer.
It was the intention to turn the herd
from the regular trail which it was
keeping under the leadership of the big
white steer if thiscotild li done the
chances for preventing thelx.y's n-turn
to the stockaded settlement would lie
good. The Indians could scatter the
cuttle in the fimt, bewilder Snowball
aud capture him and his rider.
The young Indian trying to head off
the wittle was a stawlwart fellow, in all
of the paraphernalia of the war trail.
It was going to be a race detween him
and the white steer. SuowIkiII seemed
to see it too, and he lient all his ener
gies to increase his speed.
Xot more than 30 yards separated
Snowball and the Shawnee as they ran
on j mi nil Ul lines. The Indian dared
not stop long enough to try a shot for
fear of being outdistanced ; he mut de
! nded on his ability to head off the
animal.
Jerry saw the buck leaping the fallen
logs like a deer and digging his heels
deejs-r, he called out to Snowball to
hold tiut a little longer, for they were
almost in sight of the lights of the fort
Itut all at once with a yell the Indian
threw himself into the trail 3) yards
in advance.
Jerry felt his heart sink. Capture
was inevitable; the Indian hud taken
oil' his hunting jacket and was waving
it in Snowball'i face.
The boy released the branching horns
of the white steer and with a throb of
joy clung to the neck, as the animal
lient his head and uttered a cry Jerry
knew preceded one of his charges when
angry.
With lowered head SnowUJI lunged
straight at the Indian, his hoofs hardly
touching the ground. The Shawnee
prang aside, but too late. The blood
of Snowliall was hot, al he, too, turn
ed from the Kith and rushed with a
mad bellow at the redskin. The young
Indian cried out, but the long horns
caught him and he was tossed up
among the lower branches of the tree
as if he were but a wisp of straw.
All this did not occupy ten seconds,
and Jerry, holding his breath, saw the
"whole terrible iierformaiice. He heard
the Indian fall among the other cuttle
rushing in SiiowIkiII's wake. The next
moment the white steer was buck in
the path with his bloody horns.
The fate of the runner seemed to
daunt the oilier Indians ; they fell out
one by one, and at the top of the knoll
next to the stockades, Jerry had no
enemy ou his truck.
Still holding on to SiiowIkiII's neck,
he was carried ilown the slie to the
gates, which were thrown o-tcii to re
reive him. Everywhere he saw armed
men, aud he was told that the Indian
yell had Urn heard in the forest, and
that the garrison had armed itself in a
hurry.
The failure of the Shawnees to inter
cept Jerry led them to be cautious, and,
instead of attacking the settlement
they withdrew and left it unmolested.
Jerry became one of the inosted noted
pioneers of the early border, and in his
old age liked to tell Imys the story of
his ride on the back of the big white
steer.

In Paris, where bicycling liaslieconie
very common, an anient wiieeiman
was lately vaunting the advantages of
his favorite amusement.
"I assert," he said, "that the bicycle
is In every respect more serviceable
than the horse."
And I." said another man, "can
prove to you the contrary by citing to
you a case where you would have much
preferred the horse."
"What case was that?"
"The Siege of Paris. If you had at
tempted to cat your bicycle then I
think you would have found it pretty

A Lesson of History.
To those who remember the agency
of Smth Carolina in bringing ou the
war of the n-bellion, there is something
like -Mictical justice in the tmliticul his
tory of the state that has followed that
event South Carolina was more the
object of indignation on the jiart of the
Xorth at the period which immediate ly
pnreded the n-belliou and during its
early stages than any other southern
state, and rightly so. She was the cen
tre of the agitation that "tin-d the
southern heat" against the national
government formally years; she was
the focus of resistance to the govern
ment after the election of President
Lincoln ; she was the jroint at which
the war was actually la-gun by the
firing u-Mn the national tlag.
The state of South Carolina, as it
was constituted in its jieople and their
institutions, was more the pniduct of
slavery in its aggn'ssive and overliear
ing from than any other state of the
Union. In .South Carolina there was
built up a haughty and arrogant aris
tocracy that looked upon the -air white
men of the state as vassals, as well as
ujain the black men as slaves. More
than this, she n-ganled herself as the
superior alike of the general govern
ment and of her sister states of the
Union. She defied the laws made by
the general government almost thirty
years la-fore she initiated the n-U-lIion,
and was only saved then from bringing
on a conflict at arms by the firmness of
Pn-sidelit Jackson anil the interposition
for compromise of Henry Clay.
It was this aristocracy in a n-publie
that brought on the n-lwllion as its final
act of contumacy toward republican in
stitutions. The opening of that
struggle saw Smth Carolina in the con
trol of the proud and intolerant class of
men. When its end came, they were
defeated, disiersel, and their power ut
terly destroyed. The first effect of this
was their practical subjugation by the
men they had most despised, the black
clement in their imputation.
Xew misfortunes wen in store for
them. They had no longer to fear the
rule of the black man of the state, but
another antagonist appeared in that
white class whom they despised only
less than their colored coiitciuNraries.
These last are the men who have sup
planted the successors of the oldest ar
istocracy, and who have Ui-n in jmwer
in South Carolina for the last few years.
They have ivvohitionizt'd Im state al
most as completely as did the colorei I
voters themselves. They have put
Wade Hampton out of the Seuate, and
have supplanted him by a senator of a
character such as to cause Calhoun to
turn in his grave. They have chosen a
(Governor who has all the traits that
the Carolinians In-fore the war despised
and detested, and this Oovcrnor they
now intend to place in the seat in the
Senate filled by that other repn-sentu-tive
of the earlier dominating era, M.
C. Ihitler. South Carolina has Urn
made the subject of two political revo
lutions, and the second one, which has
installed white men instead of black in
eontml, is scarcely less galling to what
was the aristocracy than the other. It is
a signal retribution to them indeed, and
this second change in her mlitics is one
for which the state alone is rcsimusihlc.
The lesson tif it is here. South Can
liua sought to be in the American rc
public without W'ing of it. She at
tempted to substitute the rule of an ar
istocracy in place of the nileof the jH-o-ple.
She has met with one of the most
signal failures n corded in history, and
the consequctiocs are still felt at a
H-riod thirty years after her aristocracy
was overthrown. llnaton llmittl.
Ti'hting With a Shark.
Milton Shane, of Pablo, was yester
day morning swimming around out
side'the surf and enjoying h imself in
the water us only an exja-rt swimmer
can. When he was a Unit six hundn-d
yards from the beach, floating tut his
kick, he was attacked by a shark.
Shane immediately nulizcd hi-t
danger and exerted every effort to fisrht
the fish off and at the same time reach
the shon. Put the shark was ferocious,
and as often as repulsed woubP return
again to the attack. The young man,
by clear-headcdntss and bravery, was
able in some degn-e to evade the mon
ster's attacks, but not altogether, as at
every dash of the fish part of the un
fortunate swimmer's 11-sli was torn
away. Put it was a struggle for very
life, and filially theyoungman reach
ed shallow water, and then the beach,
almost exhausted from exertion and
loss of blood.
It was found that his thigh Imre no
less than twenty-six separate wounds
made by the shark's teeth, which,
owing to their jicculiar formation, ton
away the flesh at every incision. A sea
captain, who examined Shane's hurts,
said that judging from the marks the
shark could not have Urn less than
ten fi-et long.
Shune's wounds, though many and
-Ktinful, are not considered dungi-nnis.

Years ago an old hardshell pn-.ieher,
who lived on the Imrder in the days
when the Indians were at war with the
whites, was making prcpurations one
morning to go to his church, miles
away, through a country infested with
savages. He was can-fully loading his
old flint-lock rifle to take along, when
a friend present remarked:
"What are you going to take that
gun along for? Don't you know that if
it is fon-ordained for the Indians to kill
you, the gun won't save you?"
"That's very true," said the old man
as he deliberately rammed the Iwll

that the Indian shall lie killed? Xow,
how would the good Inl carry out his

The American mail reaches some of

a year. When letters and jmpers arrive
they have Christ mus, Xew Year, Fourth
of July and Thanksgiving all in one.
And when the mails fail they have
days of sorrow instead. Suite years

EX-SPEAKER REED'S
VIEtt'SOFCOXURESS.
Little Mul Can Be Thrown Became
the Democracy Has Already Be
daubed Itself.
Kx-Sja-aker Thomas IJ. I teed has
written for the Philadelphia, Iinjuinr
the following ptintrviit criticism and re
view of Congress and the Administra
tion :
And now they have gone, this Sen
ate and Hou-h- of lt--prcseiiUitives, gone
with only three months more of un
happy life left in them. What are we
to say? One year of almost continu
ous session, and what have they done
and how have they done it? The Ile
publicaits cannot view the language of
reproach, of the invectives or uluse.
The whole vis-almlary has I recti ex
hausted by themselves sieaking of
themselves. We cannot hojie to equal
in commenting on the Senate the tre
mendous and effective wonLs of the
Pn-sident of their own choice. If we
wen to search the whole dictionary of
diatriU-s we could not equal the charge
of "party jwrtidy and party dishonor"
made by the President against the Sen
ate and received by the House of Itcii
resetitativcs with; its Inn Ih-mocratic
niajority with chirrs and applause.
If we were to comment ujioii the
President and his act''-.' we could not
use language half so ilamtghig as Dem
ocratic Senators used in ojien S.-nat.
with uplifted hands a- -rating the
truth of jiersonal U-trayal a id p..-r-o!i.il
liad faith. If we wer. to con. m-nt np :t
the House of It prescV'ttivi s and its
leaders we should W d.vui :i g liity of
gross partisanship if we u.-.l even tlu-ir j
own words in describing their own ac- j
tions; what a e;i:i-litio:i fra p:irt'-n!: .
critic to lie in to W- oMig-tl in common '
(l.irney to use softer words about bis
cnemii-s than they do thcm-s lvi-s. And
the enemies are not saints in cinhrvo.
,
U-athig their breats and confessing j
their transgressions to reach the height
of sainthood thnmgh the depths of sin.
Oh, no ! they are simply earnest men
stun ling Hy the broken system of a
whole country and trying It tell who
destroyed it, and, having met success,
we obviously cannot use any language
of reproach or iis-ion. Karlier and
for that pur pise worthier hamls have
gathered all those laurels. All we can
say is that all the three sides, the Presi
dent and Senate, have told the truth
almut each other and the House about
itself.
With this simple expression of faith
in their veracity let us turn to a slight
review of what they have done. There
i.s no doubt that this review will W a
distasteful and unsatisfactory to the
majority of honest Democrat as to Ite
puhlicun themselves. Whatever good
there ha Urn done has Wrll smilcd in
the doing. If the House had yielded to
the dictates of a long-denounced com
mon sense and adopted proH-r rule, it
wa only after all sound precedent had
Urn violated in the attempt to avoid
the necessity. If the Congress had re
pealcd the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act, it was only done after
such long delay as has deprived the
ci hi u try of any advantage the repeal
might have given it.
Xor has the mystery of the collapse of
the compromise and the connection of
the President therewith ever Uvn clear
ed up. Whether he consented to that
compromise or not i not for me to say.
That is a family secret, but it is no fam
ily secret that the compromise wa not
repudiated until after the It -p ililicaii
memW-rs were souu l.il and it wa clear
that they would have no part or lot in
it.
Such misunderstanding a these W-
tweeii the President and the Senate if
Republicans would have caused a sen
sation as of hurtled woolen among the
pe iple. But the Democracy ha limi
tations as to morality very much en
larged. That party seems to realize
what Ocncral Butler said in jest, "That
nobody wa truly unassailable until bis
character wa gone."
Tiie Tariff bill of "perfidy and dis
honor" ha In-come a law, and an inter
esting law it is. How a lK-m:-ratic
Senate W-lieving in the platform of the
. , , , i . . . I
.....i..,n-
hensive. How the President could hac
permitteil it to Ueo:iii a law is simply
nn impossible study in human nature.
How can the country reconcile this
action with its former estimate of him?
He was deemed by a very large part of
the people a a man of sound commo.i
eme and of gn-ut will-power. HL
reputation for g.vsl Sv-nse certainly had
a shock in the case of the Sandwich Is
land. And t'li Ls in ire likely to suffer
from the contrast between the letter to
Wilson and the sunvink-r to Gorman.
I was not one of those who expected
such a result. Surrender wa in recap
itulation. He ought to have handed
in his side-arms and signet! the bill.
If he did not consent, then by I roth
House and Senate he has Wen pre-
uounccd to Ire not even a factor in the
transaction. Hereafter the President,
instead of standing on a Mtigwumpand
unreal pedestal, must U- reckoned with
the rest of them, and the regret will
not all Ire from the Democratic side.
The t null aUuit the Wilson bill is that
it was a foolish bill when it went out of
the Ways and Mean Committee and
was made still more foolish in the
House. It lui neither KIicy nr prac
tice and yet it has Writ erected into a
golden slab t ) lie worshiped by irty
convention, and that, ttm, with the
consent and approval of their own

The Senate bill has had some regard
to the business of the country in sjmts,
but it will prove a failure like the other,
though not to the same degree. The

the cry. Bui, alas, even that repos. i
