THE CITIZEN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1894. A DESPERATE FIGHT. A HAND TO HAND BATTLE WITH A NAKED QANT INDIAN. In Logto's CIom Call When Ha kNd B7 7 Hs itaml Snpwrhiunaa Frowsts Death by HI. Own Bud Bather Than lumdei to Hated Knemy. $r of ttie apted Tjbartotert of pioneer days was Jo Logston, a glgantlo Ken tneklan who settled on the bank" of the Ohio rlter Dot many mllet below Clnoln Ball. He wm a powerful fellow, foet 4 Inoheilnhli moccaalni and proportion ately itout and muscular, with the oglll tj of a eat and the oourage of Hon. He exoelled to man; of the feats of strength and (kill that made men oontplouom In those .daft, whea auoh aecomplUhmenta were lequlifte and a neoesslty In the fierce struggle for supremacy over Barege man and marling boast. Logston wai a great hunter, but had achieved tome distinction as an Indian lighter and often boasted that it gare him more pleasure to pursue the red men than It did to follow the trail if wild game. On one occasion the Intrepid hunter was carelessly riding along an established trail through the dense woods on the back of a (In hone that he had captured from an Indian chief Whan the unexpected crack of a ebople of rifles roused him to a reali sation of danger. One of the bullets scrap ed hrs breast bone, making a slight flesh wettnd. The other ball struck bis horse In the loins, and it sank to the ground with Its rider. As he straggled to release hlmesU from the floundering beast two Indite Waned from their concealment and dashed toward him with uplifted tomahawks and exultant shouts. But, al though pinioned to the ground, with one leg beneath the dying hone, he managed to bring his trust rifle to bear upon the approaching lavmgee, end they, well knowing Its unerring aim, halted and then sought safety behind adjacent trees. One of the Indians, however, was not qulek enough to place himself entirely be hind the protecting tree before the htillet of the expert white man had pierced his back, and he fell, with a fractured spine. DMngaglng himself from his horse, tlio Wfcry While man regained his feet, and seeing the other savage reloading his rifle sprang toward him, with his gun raised to strike. The Indian dropped bis ramrod In his excitement, but grasping his toma hawk he burled it with ferocious force at his enemy. Iogston dodged the flying weapon, and daehlog forward with uplift ed rifle struck at his foe. The Indian leaped aside, and the gun struck a sapling and was shivered to pieces. The disap pointed white man then clinched with his adversary, who was his equal in size and strength, but his Inferior In the solonce of wrestling, and this enabled the hunter to throw his antagonist to the ground. But the Indian, being naked, with his body well oiled, was able to slip from tho clutches of the exasperated white man and regain hie foet. For nearly an hour these two giants, each a Oollab, fought like g l4Utora In the desperate struggle to tfBDQfref of die. The terrlflo contest eaused an Increased flow of blood from the wound In the breast of the white man mado by the bullet of the Indian, and he began to feel that his strength was giving out But he deter mined to end the oombat If possible before tife antagonist eoold secure a greater ad vantage over him, and when the Indian bad again crawled from his grasp after being flung to the ground he Jumped to hit feet, and as his assailant roso up he dealt aim a blow with his fist that would have done credit to a Corbett. The sur prised savage fell, and as he staggered to bis feet he received a second blow from the strong arm of the puglllstlo pioneer that stretched him half unconscious on the ground. Before he could rise Logston leaped upon bis prostrate form with both feet and attempted to stamp the breath from his body. The Indian caught him by the legs and tripped him to the ground, and again the combatants engaged In a terrible tussle for victory. The red man was almost exhausted from the blows and taKpimj ha had been subjected to, and ttthdvartary auoceoded In sailing him by the throat Wit a clutch that closed his breathing and rendered his reslstanoe weaker and weaker until he lapsed into unconsciousness.

The tall of a comet Is not formed of tbe same particles which composed It yester day or even an hour or a moment njio. It la constantly being ronowedat tho expense of tho nuelous. As tho long strcum of black smoke from the neighboring fnetnry or mill Is being continually renewed by frosh particles of carbon released by the combustion going on In tho furnnee below, so Is the wonderful luminous train of oomotary bodios being constantly re plenished by particles flying from, or rather driven from, the nucleus by the In tense heat of the sun. Then, again, how infinitely small and how Intensely luminous must tlicso par ticles that go to niako up tho tall of a comet be! This thought is suggested by the fact that It has been proved that in some cases tho nucleus of comets which are only a few hundred miles in diameter will have enormous fanlike tails stretching across space for a distance exceeding SUO, 000,000 miles and having a bulk exceed ing that of the sun by nioro than 10,000 timosl ProfoHscr E. K. Barnard beauti fully Illustrates the formation of a comet's toll by "supposing" thus: "Suppose, for example, that tlio nuoleus of n comet is composed of Ice. Then suppose tlio heat of the sun to bo so Intense as to rapidly melt that portion of tho Ice globoexposcd to tho action of Its rays, which are strong enough to Immediately convert it into vapor, which ascends toward tho sun. "Imagine now a fierce wind blowing out from the sun, causing tho vuporwhl'ih meets it to bo whirled out Into space bo hind tho comet. This will clearly Illus trate tbe theory of the formation of a comet's toll, only that tho nucleus of the comet Is not Ice and tlio vapor Is not wa ter vapor; neither is tho force which drives it away from the sun a flereo wind." Tho unknown force hinted nt by tho as tronomer abovo quoted readily explains why a comet's tall, ns n rule, points In on opposite direction tothesun. Tlioliusslan astronomer, Bretlleclien, distinguishes three different types of coinetnry tails thoso composed of particles having tho specific gravity of hydrogen, those having tho specific gravity of bjdoearbon gas, and a third olass having all the peculiarities of an equal mixture of hydrogen und Iron vapor.

I. . n'l ..mi la n vouns man named Dr. Doyle, who ,1M written a capital shilling shocker (which Is British for dimo novel), and who is about to havo a novel published by Long mans, and tills man has a future." ''On my way bock to Edinburgh," said Mr. McClure, "I purchased a copy of the shilling shocker, which proved to lie ono of tlio earliest and greatest of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories. I rend It with unbounded delight. It was mora than a shilling shocker. It was a great story, and although adetectlvo story it certainly was a piece of literature. "I continued my Journey to London and purchased on tho train copies of tho two groat critical Journals, Tlio AthcnaMiiii and Tbe Academy. It hnpiiciicd that both contained a review of C'onun Doyle's new novol, 'Mlcah Clarke.1 Dr. Doyle's nume was then unknown to literature, and tho book was heralded as a great work by a now writer. Tho Athcnnmm scored the novel In strong terms and expressed won der that any publisher should duro publish a book so dull. Tho Academy, on the I other hand, praised tho novel and rated It j between 'Kidnapped,' by Stovcnson, nnd j less to say that The Academy's verdict Ill' . -.1 II t t.'l 1 Id tt.. .l was tbe right the right one nnd tho verdict of the public I bought and read ' M lcah Clarke, and I Instantly recognized tlio promise ol this writer and arranged for his new nov els and stories."

You could not come at a moment more apropos!" The Count de Pallance, beheaded in his tenth year, stood erect and calm In tho cart until he reached the guillotine The headsman lifted bis long curls. "Mercl, monsieur, " said the boy, with a bow nnd a smile. The next moment his head rolled in dust. Tho man or woman who showed any sign, of Ptlo.c.ncelt was not received at oonrt. Profound deference was shown to women and to the aged.

A liLACK iSyUAWMAfl. HENRY FEARN, COLORED, LATELY OF THE NINTH CAVALRY. The Five Notches on 111. Rifle Stock A Clou Game In Which III. Pair Won. The t ight With Indians at Devil's Bowl. Mow a Member of the Kiowa Tribe. Henry Pcarn, a colored man living near hero on tho ranch of Whtto Wolf, tho Kiowa chief, Is known wherever there la an ludluii band in tho fur west und Is wel comed wherever there Is a company of the Ninth or Seventh regiment of cnvulry. Ho is 8 years old and 0 feet tull, with huge hands nnd feet, and a stoop In his bnmil shoulders that betokens enormous reservo strength. On tho stock of his rifle nro llvo notches. Kach one records the deutli of a human being other than an Indian. No ono, not even Fearn himself, knows how many Indians ho has killed. Fourteen years ugo Fearu enlisted In tho Jiiiuli cavalry, a regiment made up wholly of colored men. Ilo was assigned to the troop commanded by Captain Moore. Tlio Ninth cavalry was then In the southwest. Times wcro hot, nnd tho Indians gnvotho regiment plenty to do. Fearn speedily got a reputation as n reck less, fearless soldier, lie was tho best shot among; tho men. Ono day, at tho closo of a lively campaign, word reached tho Ninth cavalry that the paymaster was on his wny to Join tliem and was waiting 80 ! miles mvny for un escort. A noncommts- I sioiied olliccr nnd threo privates were do- j tailed to go to tlio paymaster and guard ! him on his ride to the regiment. Fearn j was one of the lour men selected. A ser geant who had long disliked Fearn wns placed In charge of tho detachment. Tho other privates wero closo fi lends of tho sergeant. As tho tour mou rode nut uf the post Fenm dropped to tho rear. "Hide up," commanded tho sergeant. "This will be a hard rldo lor us nil and a last ono for you petliaps, " ho muttered In an undertone, "Last howr" asked Keurn "Wait and seo," was thu reply. So the men rode along. Fearn hung hack or rotlo out on tlio side, whero he could watch tlio three men. His corblno lay across ids saddle bow. The liuttaof his Mg cavalry pistols rubbed his hands ns he held the reins. Fearn understood that n relaxation of vigilance meant death. When the watering creek was readied, tho men dismounted In silence. " Kldo on, Fearn. Wo will catch you," suid ono of tlio men. Fearu enlil nothing, and finally the men rodo on togothcr. As thoy mnreil Iho sta tion where tho paymaster awaited them ono of tlio men turned suddenly on Fearn and raised his plst.,1 Ho was too slow. Foam's two hands went up, each grasping a pistol, and when ho ceased tiring threo riderless horses followed liiui Into tlio sta tion, whero ho met tho paymaster alono. "It was n close game, ' ' Fearu says as he tells of it now, "but my pair beat throe odd hands." Wlicn tho Pino Ridge trouble broko out four years ago, four troops of tho Seventh cavalry wont up into tho territory to bring tho Indians into submission. Tim Ninth cavalry also went nut. Foam's troop, with another under Colonel Guy V. Henry, then major, met the Indians nenr a big basin known as Devil's Howl. "It wns tho hottest fight I was ever in," said Feiim. "We wero sitting about on Iho rocks drinking our coffee, when sud denly from behind rocks and trees and bushes burst a storm of bullets. Wo Jumped to the charge, but thero was noth ing to charge on except rocks. A puff of smoko would Uont out from behind a rock or tree, and that was all wo oould seo. They fought us back foot by foot down tho hill until they got us on an open much Uko a log chuto. No sooner had wo rallied along this thun thero was a terrillo ox !

Suddenly everything grew quiet. We waited, but all was still. In about ten minutes tho old gun boomed again. A tent pin struck mo ou the shoul der, and glancing uff killed tho man be hind mo. "Major Henry divided us Into two squads. Ono squad hold tho ground, fight ing like mad. I was In the other squad. Wo crept slnglo Illo up tho hill about 100 yards. Then we turned sharp to the left and opened out In skirmish lino. Then we faced about and inarched toward our own men. But the Indians wero between us. Wc had them front and rear. "I wns right beside Major Henry. Ho was cool ns n cucumber. Wo crept along or nbout 1U0 feet without eoelngarcd man. Suddenly Major Henry stopped nnd nodded his bead forward. We halted anil looked ahead. Thero was a big bowlder, ; ' Sioux. They know nothing of our presence. Quickly wo brought up our pistols, every man with ono in each band. Major llonry nodded again, and a lino of lire lit the woods. Tho Sioux yelled and sprang forward, but they ran right Into ourothor squad, Then It wns that thoy fought. "Havo you ever met nn Indian faco to face when bo was war crazyf Nof Then you cannot reallzo What a fight wo had. It wns man to man. Thero was no chanco for the Sioux to Jump behind trees. Wo closed right lu. Our other squad, too, pushed toward us. Negro and Indian grappled nnd struggled, ench for his life. Don't toll mo that the colored man won't fight Just you get hlin started, ,ind ho will go right through with you to tho end. I saw negroes lying hacked and torn shoot a lost shot nnd full hack dead. Wo hold ! our ground and drovo tho rod jnen off. " Fonrn bears five scars to remind him of tho battle of tho Wounded Knee. At the expiration of his enlistment ho returned to Fort Sill, whero bo had once lived His fame had preceded him, espe cially among the Indians. Ho declined to llvo In tbe post and went Instead to the' ranch of White Wolf, a powerful Kiowa chief. Soon after his arrival ho married ono of Whlto Wolf's daughters and becamo a full fledged squawman, appropriating all the rights of his Indian wlto to raise an unlimited number of cattlo on the In dian lands freo of charge His herd has grown rapidly, and today ho counts his cattle by the hundred.

FALSE HAIR. Where It Comes From and the Prices Which It Commands. Probably few women who wear fulso hair stop to think whore the hair that sup plements their own tresses comos from. Tbe fact is that tho wholo of Europo con tributes to the supply. Tho commonest hair Is black balr, and that comes mainly from Italy. France furnishes principally brown Bhades, and from Switzerland Is obtained blond and what tho trado calls drabby shades of balr. Tho most exponslvo hair Is whlto, gray aomlng next In rarity and price. All countries supply gray hair, though, of course, In very limited quantities. Tho high price of grrty and whlto hair, some times reaching $19 and $15 nn ounce, Is due partly to tho soaroity there is of any length ovor throe or four Inches and partly to tho reluctance of the owners to part with It. They presumably realize that, onto parted with, they will novcr get an other supply, whereas a girl will grow her hair again In a year. In Switzerland, whero for somo reason tho balr grows very fast, young girls frequently sell their hair twice a year. Tho beads of living beings do not con stitute tho solo source of supply for the hair market. A considerable amount of hair Is cut from dead bodies, and It Is Im possible for oven the trado to tell hair which has boon furnished by n living head from that taken from a corpse. Tho snmo shades of balr aro all mixed up together, regardless whether thoy coiuo from a dead or a living body. Tho price of hair Is regulated by length, color and quality. Black is tlio commonest shade, brown next, then blond, and rarest of all gray and Whlto. Tho length varies from six Inches to 00 Inches, tho last being nn unusual length and bringing a propor tionately blgh price. The last thing taken Into account Is tho quality of tho hair, which varies from tho toxturo of horsehair to that ot silk. Now York World. She Had a Long Memory, A Lew Is ton lady, In speaking nbout punishments In school, relates an incident In her own case. When a girl of 10 years, aho attended school In her nativo town. Somo troublo arose that called In question the veracity of cither herself or another girl. The teacher insisted that she was tho offender. She Insisted that sho was not. Tho alternative was offered bor to receive punishment or lenvo tho school. She took tho latter oltornativo. Tho teach er remained four years, and sho did not return, and her school da s virtually ter minated nt that time. Twenty years later tbe teacher and his alleged offending pupil met ono day. Ho recognized her and extended his hand. She refrained from taking It. Tlio act might have seemed unladylike, but it wus Just In this case. Tho man wus not offended, for ho knew tho treatment was deserved, and ho had tho manliness thero and then to acknowledge a wrong of SO years previous. Ho had learned that tho other pupil had uttered the falsehood, and tho girl who had been compelled to leave the school was wholly Innocent of tho charge. This knowledge came to him a short tlmo after the ocourrenoe, and it bad weighed upon his mind, causing him many reproaches of conscience. Olten ho had wished to re pair tho wrong, but a lack of opportunity bad prevented. His expressions of slucore regret led to prompt forgiveness. Lewis ton Journal. Black I'earls.
