REPAID THE FAVOR.
Grant Did Not Forget the Man Who
Dirl Him a Good Turn.
"General Grant's most pronounced
characteristic, perhaps, was bis re
ward of the friends who had stood by
him in his early d.vs," said Colonel S
A. Holmes of St. Louis "While Grant
was doing the best he could after he
had quit the army and was down and
out lie wanted to get the Job of county
surveyor of St Louis couut.v. This
job was in the keeping of the three
county judges, and Grant could get
only one of them to rote for him, so
he didn't get the place.
"After the war, when Grant was
serving his Urst term as president, a
delegation of Missourians visited the
White House to urge the appointment
of a St. Louis man for collector of in
ternal revenue, the most lucrative po
sitiuii hi the state. Grant listened to
the arguments and looked over the
petition presented. Then be scratched
his head and remarked:
" "Isn't there an old fellow out there
of the name of Loug. wb# used to be
a judge of the county court?'
"Nobody in the delegation could re
call Long, but Grant told them to gc
back and find out. Some time later
be was told that Judge Long was still
living k> the county, but was net con
spicuous.
" 'Get up a petition for him,' advised
the president, 'and 1 will appoint him
internal revenue collector.'
"The friends of Long lost no time in
presenting the requested petition, and
the old judge was appointed.
"Grant had never forgotten the favor
done him when he was less prosper

Bude In Reserve.
When a large branch of a tree is cut
off small branches will frequently shoot
out round the stump. These branches
are from reserve buds, of which all
trees have a great number at every
portion of their surface. Under ordi
nary circumstances these never come
to maturity, but when the tree is
wounded or cut off or loses some of Its
branches the reserve buds at once
como into play and renew the foliage.

OLD WftGON TRAINS
There Used to Be Exciting Times
on the Santa Fe Trail.
TRICKERY OF THE REDSKINS.
They Employed All Sort* of Rute* to |
Plunder the Caravan* and Murder the
White*—A Bit of Treachery and a
Battle With th* Trooper*.
As tlie overland trade between the
American settlements in Missouri and
the Mexican pueblos in New Mexico In
creased in value following the opening
of the Santa Fe trail the greater ne
cessity of adequate protection for the
traders and their stocks was met by
both the United Stutes and Mexican
governments furnishing military con
voys. The troops acted in a capacity
not unlike that of warships guarding
merchant vessels from piratical at
tacks, for uo pirates were more per
sistent or bothersome than the *av
ages of the plains.
The caravans usually left Franklin
and later Independence and Westport
in the spring. United States troops
would accompany them to the caches
oil the Arkansas river; then Mexican
troops would guard them to Taos, and
sometimes even to Santa Fe. The re
turn trip later in the summer was
similarly protected. Sometimes two
trips each way would be made in a
year.
The presence of troops usually kept
the Indians from making a direct as
sault on the trains. Even In his brav
est moments an Indian has Small rel
ish of n light on anything like equal
terms; consequently (he savages devel
oped their aptitude for treachery and
deceit.
Every sort of ruse their fertile brains
could devise was used to separate the
various divisions of a train or lure a
small part away from the main con
voy. where it could be plundered and
the whites murdered without serious
danger to the attackers.
A favorite plan and one ■which many
times hoodwinked large parties into
suffering some loss was for a small
party ol Indians 10 appear ui iuc vauj[>
with protestations of peace. For dip
lomatic reasons the reds would be hos
pitably received and their request to
eat and sleep in the camp oftentimes
granted. That night the small party
of Indians would attempt to stampede
the live stock of the train. If success
ful a largo force of savages would be
Concealed near by to aid.
Some ruses were far cleverer than
that One which completely fooled a
Mexican officer and came near being
the cause of his death was believed by
the traders to deserve the paim. That
officer, Colonel Vlscarro, with 100
troopers, was escorting an American
wagon train through the foothills of
what is- now southern Colorado when
a party of Indians appeared and asked
for a parley.
The American traders refused the re
quest. The Indians withdrew and held
a consultation. When the convoy
reached the Cimarron river the sav
ages appeared again. One rode for
ward with an arrow tied transversely
across the shaft of a spear, a symbol
of the cross. Yiscarro was a Catholic
and honored this novel banner. He
rode out and spoke to the brave.
"If the Americans will move aside
to some distance we will lay down our
arms and surrender," the Indian said.
"Certainly, red brother," tlie colonel
replied. He ordered the wagons to re
tire beyond a ridge. Hardily had they
disappeared when a large force of
Indians rose from concealment behind
the sand dunes and poured a destruc
tive fire into the -Mexican ranks. Only
the heroism of a Pueblo Indian guide
with the troops saved the colonel from
death. He heard one of the Comanehes
yell, "Now for the chief!" which was
the signal for the treachery to begin.
The l'ueblo jumped in front of his
colonel and received a charge of shot
aimed at the officer.
The firing was heard by the Ameri
cans, who returned to the troops. They
rode swiftly to the flanks of the at
tacking Indians and charged. Caught
between two tires, the savages soon
scattered In flight, but not until they
had been handled severely in a hand
to hand encounter, where clubbed rifles
and tomahawks played a part. Colonel
Viscarro was profuse iu his thanks to
the Americans.—Kausas City Times.
Quarrel No. 1.
"Confound tt all," the bridegroom
muttered angrily as be and his bride
were returning from a ten days' honey

"Probably wondering, just as we are,
why we married each other," replied
the bride.—St. Louis Post-Dlspateh.

~ SOAPING A GEYSER.
Food That Roused the Fury of the
Sleeping Wairoa.
Some of tlie larger geysers in New
Zealand will not play unless they are
soaped—a process only occasionally al
lowed. a.i too much souping weakens
the geyser. Paul Uoodiug in "Pic
turesque Ne'.v Zealand" describes the J
soap.ng of a geyser uamed Wairoa.
be being present at the ceremony. The
author state.* that the officiating priest
ess was 8 Maori known as Kathleen,
who was clothed in a has mat com
pletely covered with raka. riwi and
pigeon feathers:
"The caretaker approached Kathleen
with a big .vbite bag In hand It was
half full of yellow soap cut iDto small
cubes.
•' 'Are yot: -end?. Kathleen?" be asked.
" 'Yea,' she promptly answered.
"Taking ojt two or three handfuls
of soap, the caretaker threw them into
Wairoa's deep throat and then handed
the bag to Kathleen. Grasping the
string handle at the bottom of the
bag. she opened the mouth, and out
poured a saponaceous stream.
"Ten minutes passed, but there was
only a slight increase In the volume
of steam at Wairoa's mouth, and there
were no subterranean siigns of an im
minent eruption. Fifteen, twenty min
utes passed with very I ttle change.
"When thirty minutes hau gone there
was a rumble, then a splash of water.
The people near the geyser backed
away. Two or three more splashes
followed, and each was higher thau
its predecessor; then came a hoarse
rour, a rush of steam, and up past a
low sulphur dyed sinter wall flashed
a column of water carrying up clouds
of steam. Soap, just common wash
ing soap, had conquered Wairoa and
forced it from Its lair. Dp it continued
to go—fifty, sixty, eighty, 120 feet
•"Wairoa would have gone higher if
it hadn't been for the wind,' the care
taker told we. 'It has been known to
go 180 feet'
"While Wairoa played it played
magnificently. lu its shaft it rumbled.
It flung its hot breath upon the ven
turesome, and for more than 100 feet
around it shook the ground until the
earth trembled. For ten minutes it
rose and fell. Then down it went,
like a thermometer on a frosty night,
until It was a mere splasher."
