Chapter v. BRADDOCK'S DEFEAT. (Cout.uuatlon) All these things inflamed the imagination of our brawny Scot, now as big, strong, well-grown lad just entering Iiis teens, and he set up an insistent entreaty to be allowed to go with the rest, not doubting the campaign would be victorious and of brief duration. Sammy John was sorely put to it to meet all the arguments advanced by the lad, especially as he was so eager to go himself and entertained the same opinion as to the outcome of thi adventure, and one day he fairly gave in under the pressure and declared that both should go and witness the rout of the frog-eaters. O, that was a joyful day for Angus, be sure! He had long been deplor ng his sad case in not hearing from home and he had been disappointed because the approaching war had delated his protector in the annual visit to Philadelphia, where the lawyer migh. be aain advised ith, but in this ntw prospect of boundless adventure his sorrow was dimmed and almost forgotten. He was well versed in woodcraft and had become a fair shot and the unusual vicissitudes through which he had passed gave

him self-contidence and the ability to the oncoming enemy in the hope of take care of himself, which were interrupting his march by surprise powerful considerations in. determi- and perhaps delaying "him until supning Sammy John to consent to the port could come up from Venango and project now entered upon.

Observ- and marched into the ambuscade, the

ing the self-opinionated air of the commander, Sammy John soon became apprehensive of the outcome of the projected invasion of an Indian-infested country and regretted that he had yielded to the impulse to take a part, more on the lad's account than on his own. In early June, all being in readiness, the march began. There were two thousand fighting men, the regulars commanded by Sir Peter Halket and Colonel Dunbar,the provincials led by Washington, now a colonel. They threw themselves boldly into the wilderness, intending to make a rapid advance to the French stronghold onlv a hundred miles away, but Braddock soon realized that even his trained grenadiers could not force the rugged ground of an unbroken American forest and he was compelled to delay while axmen by the hundred hewed and cleared a way for his ponderous trains of useless baggage. From the first he traveled blindly, seldom taking the trouble to reconnoiter the woods and thickets before him, and the nearer he approached the enemy the more negligent and fretful he became. From the first he blundered badly, rejecting with impatience every attempt of his officers to caution -or advise him. From the first he was doomed to disaster by his own faulty conduct. J:i all the ceaseless toil of felling trees, clearing away logs and brush, dragging heavy wagons over roots and through quagmires and ravines and caring for the overworked and tired horses, Angus bravely bore his part.

He was amused at the alarms of the that an awful massacre could not be regulars, who were unaccustomed to . averted. the gloomy depths of the forest and lost The provincials flew to cover and heart and courage as they continued fought in Indian style, each for himin its vast and silent shade. And so sslf, but General Braddock, never they reached Little Meadows, to learn J having seen such tactics on European that the French were expecting heavy battle fields, ordered them to form in

Ten 'pieces of artillery went with the advance. Sorely against the will of both, Sammy John was one of the picked men who were sent forward with the main body Vfhile Angus was left to mope and fret with the rear guard.

9 and Adventure in thßTerritoiv C ward more rapidly, the general disregardingthe entreaties of Washington and others to proceed with caution and treating a band of friendly Indians with sucli haughty disdain that they left him in disgust. These Indians would in all probability have prevented the surprise that followed had their services been accepted by the vain and bigoted commander. Reaching the Monongahcla river at a point but ejght miles from the French fort, and forty miles ahead of Dunbar's detachment, it became necessary to cross to the western side to gain smoother- ground, Braddock intending to recross the stream lower down in order to reach the fort. The English commander never knew how close he was to a bloodless victory that sunny July day as his glittering muskets bore steadily toward the enemy and his troops rejoiced that their anticipated triumph was so close at hand. The craven Contrecoeur was dismayed by the approach of such an enemy and hastily common .-ed preparations to evacuate the fort under his command and retreat up the Alleghany river toward his base. But there was one stout heart among the frantic French. Captain Beaujeau made a daring proposal to take a detachment of French and Indians out to meet was permitted to attempt his plan n n (I v itli t wo h u n d red and Ii f t v long procession of shining muskets coming close behind. "With insane confidence in the prowess of British regulars Braddock pushed his doomed men into the trap without taking a single glance ahead; though he had with him many scouts who could not be surpassed in all the world, he ob stinately refused to avail himself of of their skill. Sammy John, whose place held him well back in the column, was boiling with indignation aslie thought of the danger that little armv was in be cause ot the arrogance or one man, and he was not even startled when heheard the sudden rattle of musketry 11 11 Iva accompaniea oy me oiooa-curaiing war-cries of the savages; he had been expecting it for days and now his keen eyes, his nerves of steel, his muscles of iron and his intrepid heart answer ed the call. ' He could not see the at tack but he knew instinctively that the road was blocked with French men and the ravines filled with red devils crouching unseen behind rocks and trees, all pouring a murderous fire into the astonished vanguard. He did not know that Captain Beaujeau was mortally wounded by the first answering fire of the British and that the Indians,fearful of an artillery fire, had begun to waver when the regulars, not heeding Braddock 's curses and pleadings to stand fast, went to pieces and fell back upon the columns, rolling them back upon themselves in terror and confusion; but he did know when the surging niass of panicstricken men came screaming down the road and plunging into the river platoons in the road, where they were mowed down like grass. It was not until five horses had .been shot down under him that the frenzied commander was at last silenced by a mortal wound and it was then too late to rally the fleeing or cowering troops, too late to organize an orderly retreat. The distracted regulars, blinded by terror and firing at random, were shooting down their own comrades, and all the time came the steady storm of leaden hail from the

hidden enemy. For throe hours the slaughter continued. Sixtv-three officers out of eighty-six and more than seven hundred men out of twelve hundred lay dad or wounded along the road and at the margin of the river. Four jut of every five of the provincials lost their lives, so desperately did they fight in the effort to protect the dastardly regulars and rally them for a retreat. Through it all rode "Washington, calm, undaunted and uninjured, doing all within his power to still the tumult, and gradually, as their officers fell and their formations were lost, the backwoodsmen gathered . alxmt him and pushed to the front to retard the pursuit they expected. Sammy John was among the foremost and his steady bearing and fated aim had already marked him among the infuriated demons in the thicket, as "Washington was also marked. He passed over to the calm young giant on horseback and said, "Colonel, our ammunition is expended and our right is over; four or five of us will hold this road for a few minutes longer while you lead the rest across the river," and while he was just yet speaking he lunged heavily against the horse, the horse fell a moment later and carried him down, both instantly killed, and "Washington rose to his feet with two bullet holes through his clothes. The fight was over for Sammy John and his noble soul had passe 1 across the river where all is peace. The survivors, now, as if moved by a commonJimpulse,rushed tumultously from the bloody field, unable to care for the wounded, and the Indians, unhindered by the French, scalped, mutilated and robbed until darkness settled down upon, the land. There was no pursuit, the harvest was already rich enough, but the senseless terror of the routed troops did not abate even when Dunbar's division was met and it likewise was infected. Destroying or abandoning the provisions, stores, wagons and heavy guns, they 'allfled together, eager to escape from the shadows of those awful woods, whose horrors haunted their imagination." On, on, to Philadelphia the disgraceful flight continued, leaving the border settlements defenseless against the bloodthirsty savages, who devastated the frontier with reeking knife and flaming torch that terrible season of havoc and desolation. There was one who did not flee eastward with the scarlet mob. "When

Angus Corblv realized the extent of the disaster that had befallen the ad vance he began a search for his friend and master. Eagerly he scanned CT every face, earnestly he asked for information, but group after group of wild-eyed men hurried by and no one would attend to his inquiries. Anx iously he waited until the wounded began to straggle helplessly along and a great dread seized his heart; he staggered for a moment as though he would fall, then set himself resolutely on the road toward the scene of battle. Rapidly and tirelessly he pursued his way, scarcely stopping to sleep in the woods or drink at the mountain brooks, guided by the castoff accouterments of the fleeing soldiers and by the dead and wounded at the roadside,- all of whom he scrutinized as he jassed, and at last he reached the ford and crossed it. He knew then that he had come to the ground of the massacre, for there lay the heaps of bjoody, mangled dead, stripped and scalped, festering under the hot July sun, and he felt that somewhere in those awful heaps lay the object of .his search, that body which he dreaded to find vet could not forbear seeking. Sadly picking his way further up the road, dazed and almost overcome by the multiplying evidences of remorseless butchery, he passed into the narrow part under the deep shadows of the over-arching trees without observing several figures that darted into the tangled underbrush a little ahead and while he was peering into the distorted faces of the dead, one after another, he was startled by a sudden seizure and found himself within the power of a grinning Indian, who was instantly joined by several others. Chapter 6. CAPTURED 13 Y THE INDIANS. Amid the scenes of ruthless carnage about him, which the spirit of mercy seemed utterly to have aban doned, Angus prayed that he too might be put to death and dreaded only the torture he had reason to ex pect would be inflicted upon him. Not doubting his benefactor's death, knowing that if alive he would not have delayed ,in reaching Dunbar's w o regiment, Angus had one more great sorrow to add to the loss of his parents. He suffered from a ereatpr rin- - o pression of spirits than . he had ever yet experieii:ed, ' His captors gave him several stinging slaps on the face and pinched his ears and cheeks with their nails until the blood ran down his neck, but he -hardly noticed it or knew what they were doing. They took his ' endurance for bravery. . j , the quality Indians admire Above all others, and for that, or perhaps because they concluded to take him to the camn and there determine h

fate, they hurried him roughly along the stony road and soon came to th.i clusters of bark lodges surrounding the fort and stretching into the woods, where the great city of Pittsburg now stands. Passing among hordes of bedaubed braves reclining on the ground to rest from the fatigues of the massacre, they conducted the lad to a hut, tied his arms with a bark thong and threw him on the ground, where he was left until morning and slept soundly. The next dav he was taken earl from his prison and given some scraps of food, evidently from rations issued by the French, after which lie was bound to a tree and throughout the day remained an object of curious interest to hundreds of the Indians, who were still engaged in feasting and rejoicing over the victcry at the ford. A French officer learned that an English captive was held in camp and late in the afternoon caused him to be taken to the fort, where he was closely questioned, by the aid of an interpreter, and the conclusion being reached that he knew nothing of importance concerning the future disposition of the English forces lie was turned back to the bloody monsters to whom by Indian custom he belonged. At night a great fire was built near the tree to which Angus was fastened and the merrv demons danced and leaped and shouted about him in horrid glee, brandishing their tomahawks and knives in his face with fearful menaces, for he was the onlv living captive they had among the spoils of the battle and though he was but a boy they proposed to make the most of him. "While these ceremonies were in progress and the excitement of the savages increased in intensity, as the moments passed, an Indian entered the lighted circle and carelessly drew near enough to get a good look into thel)oy's face, then moved back into the ' darkness and strode rapidly to another part of the camp."

SWIFT TRAGEDY REVEAL

ED IN INSANITY COURT APathetic Story of Three Elderly Spinsters Who Lived in Retirement in Chicago. Chicago, July 12. The last scene of a quick tragedy that wiped out a quaint household "svithin a week was enacted yesterday afternoon when, in the insane court at the detention hospital, Miss Saiah Stanton, aged 43 years, was committed to the Dunning asylum. With two spinster sisters the woman had lived for many years in the cottage at 5G5 Fultön'street. Miss Lizzie Stanton, 41 .years old, youngest of the trio, died suddenly of pneumonia last Thursday. At the Presbyterian hospital on Sunday morning Miss Maggie Stanton, aged 43, passed away of the same maiady after a sickness of five days. SittiDg in the parlor of their little home beside the corpse of one sister, while another lay dying in the hospital, the third sister's reason gave way. The three maiden sisters came from Peoria, where their family is said to have been well-to-do and of some social prominence. Since moving to Chicago they have occupied a cottage in Fulton street, where they lived a retired life, holding no communication of any kind with their neighbors. They were women of fastidious taste, of q 'raint refinement, and of much - culture. Their borne, furnished in old-fashioned style, was extremely neat and attractive. Boxes of flowers brightened the windows. In the tiny parlor was a high-backed settle of the sort used in the early part of the century. A piano of ancient type stood in a corner. Faded daguerreotypes, nf a period long past, hung upon the walls. The neighbors thought the three spinsters "queer." Early each morning one of the three went to the comer grocery to do the day's marketing. Then she hurried back to the seelusion of her home. In the evenings the sisters, arrayed in their best gowns, took the air in their back yard, and the neighbors watched them curiously from rear windows as they sat in rockers or walked slowly up and down the yard. They lived comfortablv on the rental of some property in Peoria, and upon monthly remittarces from their uncles, James and Andrew Grimes, who still live there. Miss Sarah Stanton made a quaint, old-fashioned picture as she sat on the witness stand in the insane court. She wore a gown of flowered silk. Her black hair was brushed smoothly back from her forehead, and two curls of the old style fell about her ears. She fanned herself with an antiquated fan of handpainted satin. "Where are your sisters?" asked Dr. Hunter, testing her sanity. "My sisters have recently moved. They are living in heaven, at present," answered Miss Stanton, with the air of setting one right in the matter of an address. Then the doctor told the detail of her sad history to the court. After one sister had died and the other had been sent to the hospital, Dr. H. G. Beebe, who had been called, had Miss Stanton removed to the detention hospital. The home in Fulton street has been broken up, Neighbors have sent all the effects of the three sisters to their uncles in Peoria. Not Related Here. Mishawaka, Ind., July 12. While a company of young men were bathing in St. Joseph river here last night Eugene B. Ocker, a lqcal Western Union telegraph operator, was missed by bis companions.

Partly from historical and partly perhaps from racial causes the English are essentially unmilitary. They resent the control of soldiers. Tbey distrust military ideals. No government that ever existed in this country was more unpopular than that of Oliver Cromwell and his major generals. Its unpopularity left an Indelible mark on English Institutions. For many years it made it impossible to have a standing army. Even vhen the course of events made It necessary to concede that much to the military necessities of the time it still remained a maxim for centuries with all politicians that as little power as possible must be granted to the soldiers; that their business was to fight our wars, and, this being done, that there was little or no place for them In the body politic. We do not think it necessary to defend this attitude of mind. Like most popular feelings, it Is largely unjust, but also, like many popular feelings, It Is based to some extent on a true conception.Politically, using the word in its largest sense, the domination of the military idea in a state is calamitous. It tends, we believe, to destroy individuality and is a serious menace to Individual liberty. English Monthly Review. Summer complaint is unusually pre valent among children thia season.
