RESCUE FROM THEISIOUX
‘ On the 3d day of May, 1867, a. pioneer on
the Solomon river, Kansas, heard the re-
. ports of rifles to the west of him just as he
had finished breakfast. His name was
Cherry, and his family consisted of a Wife
and two boys. Only one of the boys was at
He was a. lad of 12,
named John. The Indians had been surly
and menacing all winter, and every white
man knew that an outbreak was likely to
occur in the spring. Believing that the
blow was about to fall Cherry closed and
. barricaded the doors, and made ready to
hold out as long as posihle.
Two hours passed quietly, and then the
settler argued that the firing must have
come from a party of hunters. In order
to satisfy himself on this point he slipped
out of the back door into the brush, in-
tending‘to go up the river to the other
cabin. Hehadgone onlya quarter of a
mile when five Indians fired on him from
an ambush. Every bullet, as they after-
ward related, inflicted a mortal wopnd.
Cherry fell to-the earth, but-assthey rushed
forward to scalp him he killed the fore-
most man with a shot, and then drawing
his knife, he attacked the others and out
two of them badly before he fell down and
died. ‘
The reports of the rifles warned Mrs.
Cherry of‘what had happened to her hus-
band. -He had taken the rifle, while she
had a-shotgnn and Johnny had a single
barreled pistol. They did not have long
towait. A band of nine warriors came
" toward the front of the house waving a.
white shirt as a. flag of truce, and when
within ten feet of the door the leader
called to the occupants of the house:
”VVe no hurt youif you-open door!”
“If you try to get in welshall shoot!” re—
plied Mrs. Cherry.
The Indians laughed in derision, and
four or five stepped forward to burst in
the door. Mrs. Cherry and Johnnie quiet-
ly retreated to the back door, hoping to
get clear. of the house, but as they opened
it two warriorstwere found there on guard.
Mother and son fired together and the two
men fell, but before the fugitives had run
a hundred yards they-were overtaken. The
first impulse of the Indians was to toma-
hawk them, but after a wrangle lasting
two or three minutes tho-lives of the pris-
oners were spared. They were taken back
to the house, their arms tied behind their
backs, and then, conducted by two war—
riors, they set off for the west. The In-
dians they had fired on at the door were
bothdead before the party. started. This
made three warriors killed and two wound—
ed by the Cherry'fnmily.
Mrs..Cherry and Johnnie were taken to
the other settler’s, whose name was Rob-
inson. > He had been shot-down in his door,
and his wife and sister were prisoners.
The house had been ransacked and set
afire, and one of the.Indians had Robin—v
son’s scalp at his girdle. The prisoners,
who now numbered fonrand were guarded
by only two men, were conducted along a
small creek which emptied into the Sol-
omon, and after marching about seven
miles were‘haltedfin mgrove.’ The guards
oflered'them no'violence, and they were al-
lowed to talk with each other as they
walked along. Thotwo Robinson women
were completely overcome, but Mrs. Cherry
and Johnnie were full of courage and de-
termined to escape it possible:
The grove had beenmamed as a rendez- '
vons, and the four-prisoners were the first
to reach it. One of the guards had an old
Wound in the side, and about an hour after
reaching the groveheapnlled off his shirt
to dms it. Mrs. Cherry’s arms were so
securely bound thatshe could not release
them. They had‘been more careless in the
case of the boy. Asthe two Indians were
employed with‘the wound the lad worked
hisarms‘loose,.a.nd with an encouraging
nod from his mother he made a. rush for
the rifles. With One of them he shot the
wounded Indian dead. The other was
wrested from himlbefore he could fire, but
he turned and ran and got clear away,
dodging the bullet sent after him, and the
surviving Indian did not dare to pursue
him for fear the women would get away.
This brought the dead up .to four. What
happened to the lad after hiseseape no one
will ever know, as no trace of him was
ever discovered. I myself was employed
for nearly six months searching for him
after peace came, butnothing came of it.
He was not killed as he wondered about,
neither'was he retaken. I believe be per—
ished onthe plains from exhaustion.
The remaining Indian sat with his rifle
across his knees-and guarded the‘women
until a. band of seven or eight- of his com-
panions came up. They had as prisoners
two children belonging to a family named
Emil, a woman named Deering and a.
boy 10 years old named Lawton. This boy
had been living with an uncle named
Thomas, and both his aunt and uncle had
beenkilled. In the raid on the settlers quite
anumbei- of Indians had been killed and
many wbunded. But for the efforts of the
snbchiefs all the prisoners would ' have
been tomahawked. About 2 o’clock in the
afternoon the party left the grove and
headed to the‘nbrthwmt. » All theimhings
were cast off to enable the prisoners to
movefnster, and in the confusion of start-
inng. Cherry managedto pick up and
mote a. hunting knife which had be-
longed to the Indian hei- boyshot. After ,
tmvelingfour hours the Indians made a
camp without fire, food or water. Here
one of the Indiaiis attempted tooutragc
Mus. Cherry, and she gave him such a blow ‘
across the throat with the keen edged
knife that his head was almost severed
from his body. She was disarmed and
tied hand and foot, and the Indians prom-
ised that she should be tortured for three
whole days before death came to her relief.
' I must now continue the story from a
,events would shape.
different experience.
the party of prisoners had disappeared into
the Indian country I was engaged by the
father of the Lawton boy and by a brother
of Mrs. Cherry to make an effort to find
and rescue them. The northern and west-
ern parts of Kansas were then in the hands
.of the hostiles, many of the forts and pos s
besieged, and there were no railroads to
transport troops. Indeed, the lethargy of
the government in re-enforcing the troops
occupying stations greatly encouraged the
Indians and prolonged the war.
When I cut loose from the frontier I had
as a comrade a. scout and Indian fighter
named Reid. We were mounted on fine
and speedy mules, had Winchester rifles
and revolvers, and- the pair of us were put
up-against four or five large tribes of In-
dians. Scores of prisoners had been car-
ried 011’ along the entire frontier, and to
look for any particular one seemed a hope-
less task. We knew, however, that the
two we wanted had made their start from
the grove on Mink creek, and we decided
to make that our point of departure. It
was then forty miles from the nearest mili-
tary post, but we reached it without acci-
dent. lVe had not yet unsaddled ourhorses
when ’I‘om made a discovery that furnished
us with a clew. He picked up an Indian
tobacco pouch which had belonged to a
Sioux. Up to this time we did not know
whether the pair we were after had been
captured by the Sioux or Cheyennes. This
gave us a. big start in the right direction.
Although the two tribes had joined hands
for the war, their territory still remained
the same, and their villages had not been
moved. We must hear more to the west
and search among the Sioux.
It must not be imagined that we went
riding boldly around the country on our
errand. There were days and days that
we lay in hiding. If we moved at all it
was by night, and then only short dis-
tances. The country swarmed with red-
slgins, and there was never an hour that
we were not in danger. We were gradual-
ly working toward the villages on the
Smoky Hill ford and its territories, and
our game was to play hide and seek. As
both of us understood the Sioux dialect, we
picked up bits of information let fall now
and then by parties passing our hiding
places, and such were our precautions that
we worked our way over seventy miles
into the Indian country Without leaving a
trail anywhere.
We had one close call as we neared the
villages. \Ve had advanced about five
miles during the night over ground so hard
as to leave no trail, and were lying up for
the day in a. dry ravine. About 9 in the
morning, as I was on watch, I espied a
couple of Indians to the cast. They had been
sent from some war party with a message
to one of the villages. They were riding
at a. gallop when I first saw them, but of a
sudden they halted, held a. council, and
both rode into the ravine about eighty rods
above our position. They could not have
seen our trail, nor had they reason to sus-
pect our presence, and I never could fathom
their action. They were coming right down
upon us, and I had Tom awake in a jiffy.
Just above .113 was a sharp bend, and here
we took our stations, revolvers in hand.
The ponies of the indie-us came scrambling
along the rough path, one closely follow-
ing the other, and the first rider never
knew what hit him. The second saw us,
but was dead five seconds after, and we at
once secured the ponies. We were a bit
anxious for the next hour, fearing that the
reports of the revolvers might have reached
the ears of Indians riding about; but no
one appeared, and the day wore away with—
out the slightest alarm. This was the
fourteenth day of our advance, and the
thirty-fourth day of Mrs. Cherry's capture.
Let us now return to her.
The prisoners were marched across the
country to the villages on the Smoky Hill
fork. The first idea' was to put them all
to the torture, but the chiefs final] y de-
cided to hold them for a. while and see how
Two sons of promi-
nent chiefs and a great medicine man had
been captured by the whites, and it might
be that they would have to be ransomed
by giving up prisoners. Mrs. Cherry and
the Lawton boy were kept in one village,
while all others captured with them were
sent to another. They were made to carry
wood and water, live on the food thrown
to the dogs, and every hour in the day
were told of the fate in store for them.
Both were beaten by Indian women and
boys, but they did not feel their lives in
peril. They slept in a tepee with an In-
dian boy about. 18 years of age and an old
bag of a. squnw.
On the afternoon of the day we killed
the two Indians in the ravine Mrs. Cherry
secreted a. tomahawk under thedried grass
composing her bed. It belonged to the In-
dian boy, but he (lid not miss it. She
heard them talking that day about mov-
ing camp, but nothing was done because
no orders came. At midnight, when every-
thing was quiet, Mrs. Cherry crept over to
the Indian boy and sunk the blade of the
tomahawk in his skull. He raised his
arms, but made no outcry, and was (lead
in two or three minutes. She disposed of
the old woman in the same way, and then
waking up young Lawton she took him by
the hand and walked out of the village.
At 1 o’clock in the morning, as I was
scontingon foot to locate the village and
was within a. mile of it, I met Mrs. Cherry
and the boy. She hail the Indian boy’s
bow and quiver, and Lawton carried the
blood stained tomahawk. We pushed back
to the ravine as fast. as we could go, and
after reaching it we lost no time in mount-
ing and heading to the south. We were
not followed from the camp, as an order
reached it at daylight to move to a distant
point, and we dodged the war parties until
another two hours would have carried us
into a. post. we were then. suddenly cou-
fronted by a band of thirty warriors, but
after a race of two miles we beat them in
securing possession of a grove, and for
three hours we held them at bay. Troops
from the post then came to our rescue.
![ had been hit in the arm, Tom in the
shoulder, Mrs. Cherry in the cheek and
the boy lost. two fingers byabullet. We
had killed three warriors, wounded two
31- three more and knocked over four
ponies. The Indians were scared away
from the post very soon. What they did
with the captives among them we never
learned—New York Sun.

The Short Lived Revolt That Dis-
turbed Portugal.
IT was SOON SUPPRESSED.
Fora. Time, However, the Uprising Caused
the Greatest Excitement and Terror.
The Rebels Sui-rendered Uncondi-
tionally After a. Short Battle.
Orom‘o, Feb. 2.—A tremendous sensa
tion was caused here Saturday. Three
regiments of infantry, comprisingapart
of the garrison, openly revolting. The re-
mainder of the garrison, including the
municipal guard, remained loyal to the
government. The object of the inutineers
was to establish a Portuguese republic.
Citizens barricaded their houses, and for a
short time the greatest excitement and
terror prevailed.
The Insurgents’ Plans Frustrated.
The insurgents, to the number of 400, as-
sembled at 4 o’clock in the morning and,
principal streets. They made an attempt
to seize the prefecture of police and the
central telegraph office. Their plans, how-
ever, were frustratcd by the municipal
guard, who made repeated charges 011 the
insurgents and succeeded in repelling their
attacks. Meanwhile the civil governm
transferred his authority to the general in
command, who summoned loyal troops,
when the few civilians supporting the
rebels dispersed.
A Short Lived Republic.
Shortly after the beginning of the revolt
the insurgent troops and a portion of the
Fiscal guards,led by two non-commissioned
officers, seized the Hotel de Ville, in Dom
Pedro square, and proposed to there and
then declare a republic. However, a strong
body of loyal troops, composed of artillery
and fusileers, promptly surrounded and _
laid siege to the Hotel de Ville. When
that building was well surrounded the ar-
tillery opened fire on it, and soon caused
the bricks to fly about the heads of the in-
surgents, who defended the building. The
bombardmentof the Hotel (le Ville by the
artillery was followed by a. combined, well
led and cleverly directed infantry attack ,
upon theinsurgents’ fortress. The fiisileers i
behaved grandly, keeping up a rattling fire 1
and advancing at the same time. 9
Sui-rendered Unconditionally. -
The result was that, after a. feeble resist- ;
ance, the insurgents surrendered uncondi- '
tionally.
Six or seven officers of an inferior grade
took part in the revolt, which was of a dis- ,
tiiictly republican character. It is alleged
that the civilian leader in the revolt was a
lawyer named Alve's Veiga.
The killed and wounded on both sides
are variously estimated at from twenty to '
fifty. The insurgents will be tried by :
court martial, and in all probability the
ringleaders will be shot. ' .
Oporto is a city of rejoicing. The store- 1
keepers have torn down the barricades ;
from the windows and doors of their *
houses, and everybody is congratulating ,
everybody else that the insurgent outbreak '
was not so serious as people at first expect- '
ed it would be.
A CONNECTICUT RODIANCE.
How a Young Scion of Nobility Became a 1
Common Thief.
KENSINUTOS, Conn, Feb. ill—Count von
Wolf, a. young scion of German nobility,
was on Saturday bound over to the supe
rior court in the sum of $500 to answer the
charge of chicken stealing.
Five years ago the count, while still liv-
ing on his father’s estate in Germany, fell
in love with an American girl who had
gone abroad for her health. She returned
his love, and there was every promise of a
happy culmination at the altar. His
parents objected, and the father ordered
the young man into the army. Before the
lovers parted, however, the lady gave him
her American address, which was Berlin,
this state. She returned to her home soon
afterward, and two months later she‘died
of the lung trouble which had taken her
abroad. Meantime the count, defying
parental authority, sailed for the new
world.
On learning of the death of his sweet—
heart his grief was pit-eons. He shut him—
self up in his room for weeks and refused
to be comforted. But as'weeks and months
passed by the first sharp pangs of grief be-
gan to be allayed. Then the young man
yearned for his native 12m (1 again. His lit—
tle store of money was about exhausted, ‘
and he wrote to his father for enough to ,
carry him back. The letter was sent, but i
the answer brought only the announce-
ment that he had been disowned for his
disobedience.
Then he took an oath that he would
never leave the place where rested the body
of his lost love, and to maintain his vow
he was forced to perform any manual la-
bor that offered itself. For a time he
served Lawyer Ives and Mr. Atwater, of
this place, but a short time ago he was dis-
charged, since which time he had been un-
able to find work and was forced to depend
upon charity for his meals. At last, dis-
heartened and humiliated, he became a
common thief.
llIurdcrer Fish Resentenced.
CANANDAIGUA, N. 17., Feb. 2,—Murderer
Frank Fish arrived at this place from
Auburn Saturday morning accompanied
by lVarden Durston and was immediately
taken to the jail. There was a'large crowd
at the depot to see him, and he recognized
and spoke to several former associates. At
12 o’clock he was brought into the court
room by the officers, and after the usual
preliminaries Judge William H. Adams
resentcnced Fish to be executed at Auburn
in the week commencing March 22, 1891.
Judge Adams spoke of the attempt that

INVESTIGATING THE llIINE HORROR.
The Legislative Committee at the Scene
of IlIaIiimotli’s Calamity.
GREENSBURG, Pa, Feb. 2.——The legisla
tive committee, whose duty it is toinvesti—
gate the cause of the explosion at Mam-
niotli mine on Tuesday last, arrived at
Mammoth in a special car Saturday and
at once set about their work, which will
probably require several days to complete.
The committee were fitted out with rubber
coats, caps and boots, and guided by Su-
perintendent Kciglily and Inspector J enks
descended the shaft and began atour of
the works. Entries, headings, manways
and rooms were subjected to the closest
scrutiny and when the dip in which the ex-
plosion occurred was reached the com-
mittee secured a number of relics.
In this portion of the mine there is al-
most complete wreck of ceilings, wagons,
tracks, etc. The roof is very dangerous,
and an extensive fall is liable to occur at
any moment. In general the urine was in
good condition, but in places signs of
neglect were apparent. The manway was
excessively hot and the members were
very glad when they got out of it.
The theory as to how the explosion oc-
curred, adv'anccd by the committee, was
that a part of the roof falling caused the
air and gas to be set in motion; the latter
being forced toward an open light explod-
ed. That the mine had been properly in-
spected by Fire Boss Snaith is now a mat
ter of doubt. No date of inspection was
found chalked on the headings as is re
quired.
Representative Ellwood said that he
thought a commission of engineers, foui
operators and four inspectors would be ap-
pointed and that the present mining laws
will be revised.
It is almost certain that there are at least
four miners covered by the debris. The re
lief committee reports fifty widows and
ninety-six orphaned children in Mammoth
In addition there were many men among
the dead miners who had families in there
native country, and it is thought that the
number of these is about twenty. -
DIURDEROUS NATIVES.
llIassncrc of Spanish Troops and Residents
in the Caroline Islands.
SAN FliAXClSCO, Feb. 2.—Advices from
Singapore report the arrival at Mamla 01
the Spanish ship Don Juan with news 01
another terrible inassacr of Spanish troops
and residents in the Caroline Islands. The
natives without warning fell on the
Spanish garrison, killing ninety soldiers
and civilians.
The Spaniards thereupon attacked the
native fort. The natives fought with sin-
gular bravery, but were eventually driven
the Spaniards were increased, as the bush
and undergrowth are very thick, and the
savages have sprinkled the ground with
inanti-aps. '
The fighting costume of the natives con
sists of green leaves. which make then]
very difficult to be seen against the green
foliage, while their superior size and
strength, and the fact that they are armed
with Remington rifles and are as active as
monkeys, placed the Europeans at a still
further disadvantage.
Nevertheless, the less 011 the native side
The Spanish commander was so mortified
over the loss of his soldiers and so unsatis
factory conditions under which he had tc
fight that he shot himself dead.
