' Frank D Baldwin hasz been in so many fights for his eqountéy. that the coanting of them as sumes the proportion of & mathendical problem For vears upen years after the civil war in which he distinguished Mimscif time and again: he fought nearly every form ofc Indian that the plains of the United States has prodiced There was one fight in which Baldwin Wwas enzaged which’ de gervex a place in song and story, {f gome soug or story writer conld be found equal to the oe casion. In the davs of the campaign of which this fight. was a feature there wis only one bar on Baldwin's sheulder, for he was a junior first Heutenant of infantry. The campaign was a long one and the fizhts foilowed fast and followed faster : : - While on detached service in Newport, Ky, in June, 1874, Baldwin heard that his regiment was to be ordered, under Col Nelson A Miles, to maka an expedition inte the Indian territory. The leu‘tenant went To the front as fast as a train and a horse could carey him. When he reported for dunty Mites, who knew Baldwin's record fn the civil war, put him in command of the scouts of the expedition, a command that was composed partly of whites and partiy of Indians. : : _ With his sconts back of him Lieut. MHaldwin had a dozen engagements, one . after another, with the confederated bands of Chéyennes, Kiowas, Arapah@(!s' and the southern Comanches. The one fight, however, which for pleturesqueness stands out most prominently in the battle list, did not take place until after Raldwin had been in the field for many months. 1t was the fight of his life, not in the engagement’a size nor, yet. perhaps, in its fmportance, but in what an .officer who saw {t daclares to bave Dbeen “its howlingly funny fea tures.” ’ : “% was picturesque and it was funny all right, but it was dangerous as well, and Baldwin lost some of his men, and took his own life in his hands 20 times before he won his splendid victory against tremendous odds.. The daring of the thing was recognized by Col. Miles, by the general .cnmnmnding the department, and by the congress of the United States, which gave Baldwin his second medal of honor for his work on that day. - : : "By cne of the military freaks of for tune, Baldwin, ahough only a liéutenant, found himself in November, 1874, in command of D company of the Fifth infantry, D troop of the Sixth cavalry, and of 12 of the scouts of the organization with ‘which he had originally taken ,the field. He had about 100 men all told when he reached the banks of McClellan's Creek, Tex. There he found in front of him fully 500 Indian warriors splendidly armed and apparently lusting for a fght.

I want you to put your teame in the center- of the charging line aud make those mules fiy straight into the mid dle of things" - ' 1t probably was the first time in history that mitle drivers. mules and wagons had been ordered ‘o participate as an offensive part of & cavalry charge. The infantry on this occasion was mounted. The mule drivers logt ail sense of the danger in the fun of the thing. They told the leutenant that with “gpood cussing” and wihk good lashing, they could lead the cavalry a mile » The 560 Indians were on a platean with sides shelving gradually down to the plains. Baldwin'g plan was nothing less than the seemingly reckless one of crogsing the open with his men and wagons, sweeping up the incline und driving the enemy, i he could, or fighting him hand to hand, if he must: €0 e : The horgemen rode up in line with the four mule teams abreast at the line's center. There was a word of command, a trummpet nole or two, and the line swept across the plain with the mules on a keén jump, with black snake whips cracking and the drivers saving things which a mule understands. : The reds turned loose at the advancing hundred. Men and horses on the right and left went down here and there, but the mules in the center with their huge wagons racking and clattering behind them swept on with never a seratch. The reds on the plateau kept up their fusillade. Up up, up the incline, the mules leading by yards all the way, swept the blue detachment. The regulars were daring and fighting as Awerican regulars always dare and fight, One of the teamsters afterwards swore that he could see Chief Gray Beard's eves popping with fear -at the sight of the ocharging mules. . The level of the plateaun 'was reached and horses, men, mules and wagons went hurtling forward. The teamsters were .standing, cracking thelr ‘whips and howling. Infantrymen and cavalrymen caught the spirit of the thing and howled in un{son. A i Those four mule teams went straight through the heart of the big band of Gray Beard's Kiowas and Araphaoes. Meantime every carbine and every Long Tom was cracking, and with one last volley the warriors of the. allied tribes fled, leaving their dead and wounded and their white captives on the field. . : ‘ o v Lieut. Baldwin foumd that the two white girl prisoners were uninjured, and not long after the fizht they were restored to their parents. For this charge and for this victory Lieut. Baldwin, was breveted a captain and was given a medal

The instant he reached the place selected he ordered his troopers to dismount and to intrench themselves as well as they could The men lost no time in thrawing up earth enough to give them some slight protection frem the buljets which were pouring in : Rabeock would not get o his horse, although his men begged him to do so and they were kepnt from «hagging their commanding officer 10 the ground and to place of partial safety, only hy in. stilled discipline and Ly Babeock's peremplory commands to leave him alone o . The Indians advanced within range and protect ed themeelves in the hollows of the prairie, They sant volley after volley up the {ncline to the hilltop and man after man behind the poor earthwork protection was sfricken. Habcock continued his ride up abd down the line. FHis blouse was cut twice by bullets but his men did not know it “Boys, they can't bit a thing"” sald “Babeock. “They've been shooting at me and no bullet has come nearer thah the north pole. Give it to ‘em. Hold "em off and relief will be here in no time ™ The shols from the Spencers and Henrys of the savages, or from most of them, ceased hitting the extemporized earthworks. The men Iying prone knew that nearly all the projectiles were passing over thelr heads and they knew also that every painted warrior antagonist was turning loose at the fizure of the commanding officer riding back and forth on his horse as indifferently as if there were not an Indian on the frontier . No one in that troop ever knew why Babeock was not killed. The Indians sald afterwards that he bhad fome “big medicine” with him that turned away the bullets. Finally a shot cut Babeock's boot and wounded his horse. He turned the animal about quickly =0 that its other flank was toward the men, to whom he seremely said: "Those fellows cant hit a barn door™ : : ' The commanding officer continued to ride up and down the Jine and the bullets continued to cut the air all about him. . i ~ Suddenly every savage head showed at once. The troopers slammed in a volley that claimed some victims. The showing heads were followed by showing bodies and in another instant the warriors were erect and running to the far rear for their ponies. They made off, leaving their dead and wounded behind them. Far over the plains, Lieut. Babeock, from his horse, saw the main column advancing. Relief was in sight. : - ~ The enlisted men told the story of Babcock's bravery, and congress gave himi a medal of honor. Later the officer, who is now living in retirement, distinguished himself twice in action against the Apaches at Tonto Creek and at the Four Peaks in Arizona. There he won the brevet rank of lieu-tenant-colonel to add to the honor conferred by his congressional medal of bronze. : : :

Next morning the hospital: service at Valledoled was strained to its limit, for there were 15 new patients. i ~ His brother officers congratulated Byrnton on his daring! - ' ~ “The only thing 1 regret,” sald Brraton; “is having to thrash that kid. 1 didn’t give him more than half a dozen good lieks, but 1 hated to do it Still, it wasn't half the warming 1 used to take very day in the public school at home—and - didn’t think it worth whimpering about.” : : .. e RNDY.

Provisions for a Fishing Schooner. How much sugar do you suppose 23 men will consume in one week aboard a fishing schooner? About 150 pounds. How much rolled oats and oatmeal? A bushel basket twice full of two-pound packages. How about meat? Half a steer for roasts, steaks, stews and corned beef. Potatoes? About three bushels. Pickles, bacon and cabbage find a place aboard the vessels in jarge quantities. Then there's the salit pork for fish chowders and fried fish, for crews of fishing craft are notori ously fond of sea food. The vessels are kept stocked with provisions to last a week or ten days longer than the time generally re quired to make a trip to the grounds and return. Some of the schooners have water tanks of 1,000 galions capacity, which are filled by supply boats at the rate of one-half cent a gallon.— —Boston Herald. : ; Struck Senseless. !
