Lute '(W< Miarp Firbt.
HOW A TEXAS COWBOY UOT THE BEST
OF SEVEN WEM.-ARMEB INDIANS —
A RUNNING FIBE WITH 11EVOLVEB8
AND RIFLES —A FAITHFUL GUARD.
Fort Griffin, Texas, Feb. 6.—Lute
MeOabo lives about fifteen miles
above hero at the "Stone Brnnehe,”
on the Clour Fork of the Brazos;
river. Yesterday afternoon, lie was j
out as usual, “roundin up’’ the oat-j
tie, and was riding leisurely along, i
little dreaming that a band of blood
thirsty and savage Indians were con
cealed in a eluster of bushes just be
fore him, eagerly awaiting his ap
proach . They were seven iii number,
three mounted and tour on foot.
Awaiting until he had come within
twenty or thirty paces of them. Lute
Was startled by the sudden discharge
of their guns, the whistling of
balls, and their demoniac war whoop.
The splinters torn from the breech of
his carbine flew up into his face, his
horse uttered a loud groan, sprang
up high in the air, and then wheel
ing, ran; while Lute himself was for
tunate enough to escape with only a
flesh wound in the leg. With that
quiek iustinet, which a sudden dan
ger often inspires. Lute, in an in
stant, had ins pistol drawn, and half
turning in his saddle, began emptiug |
its contents at his pursuers. The
mounted Indians were dashing after
him at. full speed, and firing their re
volvers as they eaine. The other j
four had ascended a small eminence, |
ami wero tiring with their riftles. j
A bgll from one of the former,
scraped Lute’s head and carried of
his hat. Luto says lie at llrst j
thought the top of his skull had been
torn open, but was satisfied on that !
iioint when, after feeling for his i
brains, he failed to llnd them.
In the mean time, his own firing
had not been without effect. He first
shot down two of the horses the
Indians were tiding, then as he fired
again, he saw the belt around the I
third mounted Indian fall from bis
body, and Immediately, the tndiali
fell jiiuiself. The other two Indians
ran to his assistance, while one of
those further behind caught his
horse. During this time, as was af
terwards ascertained, ho had run
about 300 yards, had emptied his pis
tol, returned it to the holster, and
had just drawn his Winchester car
bine, when a .-hot from one of the
Indians on the eminence, went
through his horse’s loins and
brought him down. Lute lost no
time in seeking a shelter in an exca
vation among tiro rocks.
His dog during his fight had kept
eloso to his horse’s heels, and now
followed him to the edge of his place |
of shelter, where he took up his po- j
sition and began furiously to bay the
Indians. No amount, of persuasion
could induce the faithful animal to;
come down and share his master’s '
shelter, but he kept at his post, ex-,
posed to a constant lire, until a shot;
from one of the Indians ended his!
guard duty forever.
Four of the Indians, having secur- j
edplaces of shelter within about luti
yards of him, kept up a pretty con
stant tire, which was returned by;
Lute for an hour or more, until the:
approach of night. when the Indians
disappeared, ami Lute cautiously
creeping from his hiding place,
made his way home. The splinters
of rock torn tip by the balls, striking
near his head, considerably luiverat
od bis face.
The next morning an examination
of the ground was made by several
parties. The three dead horses were
found; the trappings on none of
them itad been disturbed, showing
that the Indians must have left hur-j
l'iedly, us it is their custom to secure
these things whenever pos
sible. The belt mentioned above,;
with pistol holster attached, was also
found where Lute had reported lie j
laid seen it full. In front of it was '
but a narrow strip of leather, and
bore the murk of a pistol ball, which
had rent it in twain. Under the
river bank, a bloody blanket was
found, on which the wounded Indian '
had evidently been lying; also, spy-I
oral cloths and bandages saturated in
blood. From all these signs, there;
can be but little doubt that the In
dian received a mortal wound, and
died under the bank while Luto was
being held in his hiding place, to
prevent his going homo and giving
the alarm, from the empty car
tridge hulls found on the ground, it
Is evident that the Indians were sup
plied with needle guns and Hmith .V
Wesson pistols.
Another Reward 1,.r Charlie Ros*.
jfavorStokley, of Philadelphia, lias
issueda proclamation, embracing the
law just enacted by the Legislature!
of that State, calling attention, par
ticularly, to the immunity from pun
ishment, given during the next thirty ,
days, to any one having custody of
little Charlie Ross, and who will re
store him to any magistrate or his pa-.
rents. Following the proclamation J
is a card from the father of the miss
ing boy, In which he says ; "J am sat
isfied that both of tile abductors were
killed at Bay Ridge, Long Island, on
the morning of December It. 1871. In
addition to the Immunity from pun
ishment guaranteed by the above law,
I will give satisfactory assurance to
any person having custody of the child
or who shall be the medium through
whom he shall be restored to me, that
1 will pay whatever sum of money is
ref}aired up to $5,000, for expenses or
otherwise iri bringing about Ins re
storation.”
Recent explorations show that the
great Australian trees exceed in
height, though not in circumference,
the giants of California. A fallen tree
in the recesses of Dandenong, Victo
ria, was measured not long since, and
found to be 520 feet long; another, on
the Black Spur, ten miles from Heales
vllle, measured 480 feet. The highest
trees on the Sierra Nevada. Cal., yet
discovered, reach only 450 feet in
height, ami from 21 to 34 feet in diam
eter.
