Vening Herald MONDAY, AUGUST 5, 1805. Vacation days sire; numbered. The next school term opens nu this 22nd inst. Mt. Cahmki.'s Moani road roller lias become a high roller nnd is never able to get down to work. The delegate who will sell his support to Gilkcson now will open a deal for a sale of the country to the Democratic party in 18U0. It is said that the man who wont buy a paper becaiiMj he can borrow one has invented a machine by which he can cook his dinner by the smoke from his neighbor's chimney. Ir the Lakeside Electric Itailway Company will reduce its fare to 15 cents for a round trip between Shenandoah and Mahanoy City, tho patronage of the road would lie greatly increased. After working up its readers to a pitch of excitement the Philadelphia Press works off its great expose of the alleged propositions made by Senator Quay to David Martin, but they fell flat. A Boston Ann has been organized for the sale of sermons for the use of people who do not go to church. We may now expect to hear of a combination on the part of the preachers to get the collection baskets around to the stay-aways. Now that Luzerne's primaries have been held Missionary Charles K. Voorhees, travel ing in the interest of the Combine, will probably move down this way. He carries bills instead of tracts, according to current rumors. Whenever tho gentlemen of the'medical profession hear an announcement of a bicyelu road race in this county they prepare for a rush of business. Tho roads are as appropriate for bicycle races as a railway track would be. A woman who died recently in the Ducks county almshouse was (10 years of age and had been an inmate of the institution all her long life, with, the exception of five weeks. Jt is probablu that she is the only woman who never met an installment agent. The Hastings club, of Shenandoah, has just declared in favor of Quay. It is evi dently ashamed of its daddy. Mt. Carmel News. Our contemporary misinterprets the action of the club. The organization is very proud of Governor Hastings and his adminis tration, and has so declared itself in wide spread resolutions, but it does not favor the election of Gilkeson, Hastings' favorite, as tihairman of the Republican state committee. The picnic and excursion season will soon bo giving way to the theatrical season. Manager Ferguson will re-open his opera house during the latter part of this month and promises to give his patrons excellent entertainment during the coming fall and winter seasons. We have a good theatrical town and with good bookings the results should be highly satisfactory to both the manager and his patrons. The lietail Liquor Dealers Association has taken steps to remedy a growing evil that will result in a benefit both to the members of tho association and tho public at large. Their action in deciding to prosecute all violators of tho lirooks High License law, especially in reference to Sunday sales, is highly commendatory. The law and Order Society of the county has made itself useful to some degree in this respect, but their plan of warfare appears to have been inadequate. The members of the liquor dealers associa tion aro certainly in better position to eradi cate the violators of tho law than any other class of people, and there is no question as to their earnestness. Every encouragement should be given the association in the good work. Satubpay wasa field day for Senator Quay, nnd with each succeeding twenty-four hours the political horizon becomes brighter for the Junior Senator. Iieforo tho 28th of August, the day upon which tho convention will be held, the fight will bo practically over, and there will bo a cordial aoiit to Governor Hastings' election as the prusiding ollicer of the convention, and an equal unanmity in t'ae selection of Senator Quay as ehaiiman of the state committee. Tho Republicans of the state will never submit to the leadership of such men as constitute thccombine, and L'ttlo Gllkogon's ambition will tlltisbd nipped in the bud. Quay has thousand of Republi can friends In the state to-day who have, been Indifferent or opposed to him In tho past. Sentiment in his favor is crystallzlng and growing every day, and Gilkeson and his followers realize this. Were it othcrwlso they would not refuse a popular vute in Allegheny, the home of Magce, and in Huntingdon, Chester and other counties. A Neat Appearance. From the News Iludgct.

Under its new management the Shenan doah Herald shows improvements in both appearance nnd character of news which in dicate that the new proprietors are hustlers, and are determined to give Shenandoah a first-class dally paper. Tho new owners of the Herald are Messrs. Thomas J. Davies, Charles T. Straughn nnd Benjamin F. Parrott, and as all are practical men their venturo is likely to prove both successful and profitable.

Tho Tight With Indians nt Devil's Howl. Now n Member or tho Klnwa Tribe. Henry Fcarn, a colored man living near hero on tho much of Wlilto Wolf, Hie Kiowa chli f. !r l.nuwn wherever thero In nn IliilHn lintul In tho fnrwest and lswcl coined wherever thoro Is n company of tho Ninth or Seventh regiment of cavalry. IIo is 80 years old nnd 0 foot tall, with huge, hands mid feet, and n stoop in his broad shoulders that botokens enormous resarvo strength. On tho stock of his rillo nro flvo notches. Each ono records tho death of a human being other than nn Indian. No ono, not oven Feam himself, knows how mnny Indians hn has killed. Fourteen years ngo Fearn cnllsttd In tho Ninth cavalry, a regiment made up wholly of colored men. Ho was assigned to tho troop commanded by Captain Moore. Tho Ninth cauilry was then in tho Eouthwest. Times were hot, nnd tho Indians gavo tho regiment plenty to do. Fearn speedily got n reputation us n reck less, fearless soldier. Ho was tho best shot among tho men. Ono day, at tho closo of a lively campaign, word reached the Ninth cavalry thnt the paymaster was on his way to Join them nnd was waiting 80 miles away for an escort. A noncommis sioned officer nnd three privates wero de tailed to go to tho paymaster and guard him on his rldo to the regiment. Fcarn was ono of tho four men selected. A ser geant who had long disliked Fcarn was placed In ohargo of tho detachment. Tho other privates were close friends of tho "sergeant. As ho four men rodo out of tht post Fearn dtfpped to tho roar. "Rldo up," commanded tho sergeant. "This will bo n hard ride for us all and a last ono for you perhaps," ho muttered in an undertone. ( "Last howf" nskod Fearn. "Walt and sec," was tho reply. So the wen rodo along. Fearn hung back or rodo out on the side, whoro he could wntch the threo men. His carblno lay across his saddle bow. The butts of his big cavalry pistols rubbed his hands as he hold the reins. Fearn understood that a relaxation of vigilance meant death. When the watering creek was reached, the men dismounted in sllcnco. "Rldo on, Fcarn. Wo will catch yon," said one of tho men. Fcarn said nothing, and Anally tho men rodo on together. As they ncarcd tho sta tion whoro tho paymaster awaited them ono of tho men turned suddenly on Fcarn and raised his pistol. Ho wns too slow. Fcarn's two hands went up, each grasping a pistol, and when' ho ceased firing threo riderless horses followed him into the sta tion, where ho met tho paymaster alone. "It was a closo game," Fcarn says as he tells of it now, "but my pair beat threo I odd hands." I When tho Pinfi Ridge trouble broke out four years ngo, four troops of tho Seventh cavalry went up into the territory to bring tho Indians Into submission. Tho Ninth cavalry nlso wont out. Fcarn's troop, with another under Colonel Guy V. Henry, then major, met tho Indians near n big basin known as Devil's Bowl. "It was tho hottest fight I was over in," said Fcarn. ''Wo were sitting about on tho rocks drinking our coffee, when sud denly from behind rocks and trees nnd bushes burst a storm of bullets. We jumped to the chnrgc, but there wns noth ing to chargo on except rocks. A puff of smoko would float out from behind a rock or tree, and that was all wo could sec. Thoy fought us back foot by foot down tho hill until they got us on an open much like- a log chute. No sooner had wo milled along this than there wns a terrific ex plosion upon tho hill, and a shower of stones nnd sticks and tent pins pounded down on us. Tho Indians had captured an old cannon and had loaded it with any thing they could lay thoir hands on. Wo jumped for CQver. Suddenly everything grew quiet. Wo waited, but all was still. In about ten minutes tho old gun boomed again. A tent pin struck mo on tho shoul der, and glancing off killed the man bo hind me. "Major Henry divided us into two squads. Ono squad held tho ground, fight ing llko mad. I was In tho other squad. We crept slnglo fllo up tho hill about 100. yards. Then we turned sharp to the left and opened out in skirmish line. Then we faced about and marched toward our own men. Hut the Indians wero between us. Wo had them front and roar. "I was right besldo Major Henry. He was cool as a cucumber. Wo crept along or about. 100 feet without eccing a red I man. Suddenly Major Henry stopped and nodded his head forward. Wo halted and looked ahead. Thero was a big bowlder, and lying flat behind it in a hollow in the earth wero over 40 Sioux. They knew nothing of our presence. Quickly we brought up our pistols, ovcry man with one in each hand. Major Henry nodded again, nnd n line of fire lit the woods. The, Sioux yelled nnd sprang forward, but they ran right Into our other squad. Then it was that thoy fought. "Hnvo you over mot an Indian face to faco when ho was war crazy? Nof Then you cnnnotrenllzo wlmt.n fight wo had. It was man to man Thoro was no chance for tho Sioux to jump behind trees. Wo closed right in. Our other squad, too, pushed toward us. Negro and Indian grappled and struggled, each for his life. Don't tell mo thut tho colored man won't fight. Just you get him started, nnd ho will go right through with you tothoend. I saw negroes lying hacked and torn shoot a last shot nnd fall back dead. Wo held our ground nnd drovo tho red men off." Fearn boars flvo scars to remind blm of the battlo of tho Wounded Knee. At tho expiration of his enlistment ho' returned to Fort Sill, where I:o had onea lived. His fame had preceded him, espe cially among the Indians, Ho declined to Hvo In tho post and went instead to tho ranch of Wlilto Wolf, u powerful Kiowa Chief. Soon after his arrival ho married ono of Whlto Wolf's daughters and became a full Hedged squaw-man, appropriating nil tho rlglits-of Ills In'dluli wile to rulati un unlimited numbor of cattle on tho In dian lands freo of chargo. His herd has grown rapidly, and todny ho counts his cattle by tho hundred. Ho is present nt all high councils of both tho Kiowa and Comauclig tribes.
