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. Administrator’s Snip.
