THE GALVESTON DAILY NEWS, WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 15, 1888.
A SIGHT AT THE SAVAGES.
GlRONIMO'S GORMANDIZING GEfS HIM.
A Large Crowd Visits the Murderous Apaches.
Natchez Reluctantly Sits for His
Photo—No Conditions Made.
San Antonio Times, September 11.
The murderous Apaches brought in by
Captain Lawton, yesterday, and placed un-
der guard in the quartermaster's depot, ou
Government hill, continue to absorb all at-
tention. Several thousand people went up
the hill yesterday to see them. They were
awarded tents, by the quartermaster's de-
partment, and pitched their camp on the
north side o{ the court by the tower. They
are more comfortably quartered than ever
before, and having overcome the fears they
felt of being summarily disposed of upon
their arrival, are apparently enjoying
themselves as much as a savage can, unless
when engaged in lifting the scalp of a dying
Victim or stealing his arms.
Thoy scaled the tower and surveyed the
city from the balcony at its summit and
told the interpreter that they did not know
there were so many houses in the world.
Ueronimo gazed westward in wistful si-
lence, and Natchez looked toward the set-
ting sun and appeared deeply moved and
as if longing to be back in the mountains.
Natchez is the hereditary chief. He is the
son of Cochise, and Ueronimo is his
prime minister, or medicine man.
Natchez is truthful and frank; Ue-
ronimo is crafty and double discounts
Joe Mulhatton, Eli Perkins and Tom
Ochiltree all combined. He is a natural-
born colossal liar, and his whole career
lias been one of deceit, deviltry and venom.
He is a rattlesnake without the rattles. He
never gives warning even to his people of
the movements he is about to make. Law-
Ion describes the trail he followed and
Geronimo made, to be as devious and eo-
centric as the ways of that wilev warrior.
He never would have surrendered if he had
been supplied with enough ammunition to
jnake a tight with. Wherever he went and
there were any people he could find to mur-
der, he slew them. He wiped out whole settle-
ments. He murdered everybody in a camp
of wood-choppers—seven persons in all—at
one time. Even where they had nothing
that he wanted to steal he killed them. The
most of his victims were Mexicans. He
and his band seemed to have taken more
delight in the murder of a Mexican than in
killing any one of any other race. He ex-
pected no mercy from the Mexicans if he
fell into their hands. He never had much
mercy to spare, and never wasted any of it
anywhere, but he was particularly frugal
with it in dealing with the Mexicans.
He was able to make such a protracted
flglit because he was supplied with the best
improved army carbines and revolvers,
and obtained his ammunition from the
agency from which he escaped, and kept
constantly supplied either from that source
or with the ammunition of his victims. He
did not fancy the Winchester much. Ho
said: '• It gets out order too easily, and i
have no gunsmith in my party." He had
r.o trouble in supplyiug himself with
horses, and he got his saddles from those
l;e killed. Every saddle cost a human
life. Lieutenant Fountain, who was in the
(nmnaign against Ueronimo and was in the
fght with Natchez, wherein Surgeon Mad-
dox was killed and several officers wouud-
fd, was on duty yesterday as officer of the
day. when the savages were brought in. He
hail 110 love for the Indians, ana when he
,<aw them the memory of his dead friends,
wlie went down before their murderous
bullet, came before him with painful vivid-
russ, recalling his own experiences.
liBNKRAI. STANLEY'S VIEWS.
In speaking of the campaign against the
savages to a Times reporter last evening,
General Stanley said: "This campaign
demonstrates that officers and men of our
army can cope with the savages and are su-
perior to them when placed on an equal
looting with them on their own chosen
lighting ground. The warrior of civiliza-
tion is and always will be superior to the
savage; he is not only so in point of intel-
lectuality, Vut in endurance. Lawton tired
old Ueronimo, Natchez and young Chappa
out. He kept them going until they could
not go any further or tight any longer. The
Indians who accompanied Law-
ton were not used as lighters. Ail
the work assigned tliem was the trail-
ing of their savage brethren. Geronimo and
his people were like partridges and could
conceal themselves as easily. When they
tired, our troops could not see the Indians
and only knew approximately where they
were by the smoke of their guns. I.awton
fought the devils with fire. He captured
Geronimo's camp several times with the
fires lit, but the shy old scoundrel and his
lieople were gone, and Lawton kept them
going until there was no more going in
Ueioninio. He kept him shooting until he
had nothing left to shoot with, and he push-
ed him to that point where there was no
other alternative, and Ueronimo, whose
proud boast was that the pale face would
never take him alive, was captured. Law-
ton w as not particular whether he got him
dead or alive, so long as he got him. He
was detei mined to have him either ani-
mated or as a corpse. Ueronimo found out
he was dealing with a very different mau
from any he had ever met before and was
baffled. Ueronimo had got away from
Crook after Crook had him in his camp,
i.awton was particular to make Geronimo's
escape impossible. When he came up, Ed-
wardy, the scout, and several of the soldiers
kept Geronimo and Natchez covered with
their guns, and until they were brought into
Howie there was always a muzzle directed
toward them and a finger ready for the
trigger. When they were placed on the
train they were strongly guarded at every
station where they stopped and the sturdy
sentinels paced the platormR of the depots
and kept back the curious crowd from all
intercourse with the Indians. From the
'JOth of August, when Ueronimo fell into
Lawton's lap on the Bevispi river, in So-
nora, until the 10th of September, when he
and his people were delivered by Lawton
to us, the closest sort of guard was kept
over them, and any attempt to get away
would have resulted in death to the Indians
attempting to levant. Ueronimo's boast
that the white man could not take him was
as empty as Geronimo's stomach was when
he w as caught."
General Stanley believes that the sav-
ages will be kept here for some time, as
their disposition has not yet beeu deter-
mined upon. He thinks it probable that a
conference will be held between the presi-
dent and secretary of war on the subject,
and a cabinet meeting will be called upon
the return of the president from the Adi-
rondack's.
OKRONTMO'S VICTIMS.
Captaiu J.awton, who saw the dead bodies
of fourteen of the people murdered by Ge-
ronimo's band, states that they must have
killed during the campain at least 400 peo-
ple, all told, and stole several hundred
Lead of horses and cattle. They never went
hungry as long as there was a cow about
and they had time to skin it.
To day the crowd was so dense that
stringent measures bad to bo adopted to
keep them within the proper bounds. They
would go through all the tents where the
Indians lodged, and the number of senti-
nel? was not sufficient to keep them back.
The grounds had to be cleared, and this in-
volved a great deal of difficulty, the crowd
being very much averse to retiring. Final-
ly the system of admitting a very small
number at a time was adopted, and as soon
as they were ushered out others in like
manner were admitted. Although the
crowd was dreUHhed with rain they stood
there, waiting and jolting each other. The
sentinels bad to exercise a great deal of pa-
tience with them.
When a Times representative reached
th"re several photographers were trying to
induce the red men to be photographed,
but they were averse to submitting to the
process, and did not like having the cam-
era pointed at them. Natchez stood be-
photographer
The
neath a tree ^ith his arms folded and in a
meditative mood. He had on his crimson
warpaint. The carmine s reak across his
cheeks and down his aquiline nose suggest-
ed the gore of his many victims. His squaw
sat at the fide of the tree near him, and
her features were embellished with yellow.
The ochre was applied after she had bathed
her face in a tin basin. When the photgra-
pher was about to make the exposure after
lie had drawn ahead on Natchez, the squaw
walked into the tent, and Natchez turned
his back to the camera and shift-
ed his position. The photoj
went up to him and offerei
money to stand for his portrait,
liauglity chief struck the photographer's
ready hand aside and walked into his tent,
but soon after came out with the inter-
preter and told the latter to tell the photo-
grapher that he might make his picture,
but he did not want any money. The pho-
tographer said he did not wish to offend
him, and would present Natchez and his
people with their pictures. When asked
why he was at first averse to having his
picture taken, he said he was disgusted at
the cut of Geronimo in the Express, and if
the photographer couldn't do better than
that he didn't want any picture of himself.
He was told that he was a better subject,
and smilingly took his position and was
photographed. After this several of the
Indians came out and had their pictures
taken. Several of the bucks and squaws
had themselves painted and were photo-
graphed.
GERONIMO GORMANDIZES.
Old Geronimo had overeaten himself and
had made himself sick. He sent the scout
" Tex " after fifty cents worth of candy and
ate it after he had eaten an immense quan-
tity of rare beef. This laid him out, or
rather doubled him up with cramp colic.
He lay sulkily in his tent with a blanket
over him, and although he gave vent to no
groans, his contortions were frequent. He
was not at home to visitors, ana told the
interpreter to keep all intruders away, and
the sentinels were so instructed. Natchez
came into the interpreter's tent where the
Times representative was conversing with
" Tex " and George Katlan, the interpre-
ter, and said he wanted some of the
grapes which had been sent by the offi-
cers to the Indians. George handed him
some of the grapes, and the chief ate
them in silence. The Times man told the
interpreter to tell him he would like to talk
to him. Natchez said he would talk another
time. He had concluded not to talk much
now. Chapa, the son of Geronimo, came
into the tent shortly after, and around his
neck was suspended a large nickel medal,
commemorative of the fifteenth anniversary
of the cathedral of San Carmel, in Santa
Fe, N. M. He is the father of the papoose
born after the surrender. The young grand-
child of the old chief was receiving suste-
nance while her grandfather was suffering
from too much of it.
The beer saloons near the entrance of the
depot were doing a land office business,
and the Indians were a regular bonanza to
them. The report was circulated among
the crowd that Ueronimo was in the back
room of one of the saloons, and the crowd
besieged the place, and the doors of the
room had to be thrown open to show them
it was a mistake.
Captain Lawton was tired out and taking
much-needed rest as were the other officers
who were with him on the scout. He was
not accessible. When the Times man in-
quired if there was any truth in the report
that Lawton had accepted the surrender of
Ueronimo with any conditions, he was in-
formed that no conditions whatever were
made. Lawton had only stated to Geroni-
mo that he would do whatever he could per-
sonally for his prisoners' welfare as long
as he was with them, but would not say
more. When he captured them he had
treated them humanely and not shackled or
fettered them, and bad allowed them all of
the liberty compatible with their safe
keeping.
All of the Indians have more or less
money. They got most of it from their dead
victims. They also traded stolen horses for
the balance. They were on their way to a
Mexican trading post of theirs when cap-
tured.
TRIUMPH OP INFANTRY.
The troops, infantry as well as cavalry,
made most of their marches In the cam-
paign on foot, and killed seventy head of
the Indians' horses which had given out
the first day after the capture and fell by
the wayside. The Indian women were
placed on the horses of some of the cavalry
and the bucks had to hoof it with the
troops. The Indians behaved pretty well
the first two days, but on the last day they
complained considerably of fatigue, and
were much more the worse for wear than
the soldiers. The horses were in much
worse condition than the men.
No orders have yet been received at head-
quarters regarding the future movement or
disposition of the band.
To morrow visitors will be excluded from
seeing the savages, and the Indians and
troops will be given an opportunity to rest.
One-half of the population has t
already
seen them, and the balance may
be afforded an opportunity of looking at,
but not speaking to, them hereafter.
General Stanley at first thought of giving
the squaws permissian of going under an
escort to purchase some clothing, but has
abandoned the idea, as they will be afford-
ed an opportunity of purchasing all they
need at the post.
Concerning Johnson Grass.
To The News.
September 11.—I have perused attentive-
ly the letter of Mr. Underwood, which ap-
peared in your issue of the 8th instant. The
testimony he gives therein as to the fertility
and healthiness of Brazoria and other coast
counties of Texas is most valuable, based
as it is on an experience and residence of
more than half a century. Those counties,
1 believe, have always been celebrated for
lheir bounteous yield of the great staples
of sugar, cotton and corn; but there is now
another candidate in the field for agricultu-
ral favor, to which our soil and climate are
admirably suited, and which, if properly
attended to, will add a most valuable item
to the productions of this highly favored
coast region of Texas. I mean the Johnson
grass. It is of the sorghum family, most
prolific and nutritious, and yielding with
one sowing most abundantly for four or
five years, when by plowing up and har-
rowing it continues to give good
a similar period, the fertility of the soil be-
ing maintained by top dressings of cotton
seed meal, costing with labor not more
than $4 per acre. In this State it has in
various places produced three, four, five,
seven and up to nine tons of the best hay
per acre, giving as many as five and six
cuttings during the season. The difference
in yield reported is, I suppose, owing, not
only to the varying qualities of soils, but
to the amount of care bestowed on the
preparation of the ground in the first in-
stance for the seed.
The enormous quantity of nine tons of
hay is reported to have been raised by the
late Dr. Cogburn on a farm near Kich-
mond, in Fort Bend county, and the same
quantity is said to have been raised on
eighty acres near San Antonio by a gentle-
man named Hurd; while in Alabama a
farm of 1">0 acres, in Johuson grass, is
stated to have given its owner an annual
income of over ,$10,(XX). But let us be mod-
erate in our expectations and make our cal-
culations on the very modest figure of two
tons of hay net per acre, and see what it
would do for us, basing our supposed op-
erations on the purchase of a section of the
best prairie land in Brazoria county, at the
very high price of $5 per acre:
(i-IO acres of land at $5 $3,200
Two ptowings of same at $4 each 2,560
Two lull-rowings ditto at $1 each 1.230
640 busliels best cleaned seed, sowing,
lolling, at $4 per acre 2,560
Fencing with five strands of barbed
wire and cypress posts, say 1,000
$10,600
Return the first year:
ixviuiii 111 u nisi year:
Two tons net best hay, at $15 per ton,
will be 12S0 tons, or. $19,200
$3,600
Or a surplus of near $9000, besides having a
property clear that for years ought 10 yield
an annual income of $19,000. I do not cal-
culate, of course, on the sale of all this hay
from the farm, though I suppose most of
the foregoing quantity could bs soli in
Galveston and Houston, as it is far supe-
rior to timothy hay, which is said to ua
largely imported Into those cities, and sells
tor $21 per ton in large lots. It
would be better disposed of in rais-
ing graded stock from the best native cows,
crossed by Durham, Holsteln, Hereford,
and polled angus bulls; and their flue pro-
duce at from 3 to 4 years old shipped from
Galveston to New York and England. Fed
on Johnson grass I believe we could ship
at 4 years old beeves that would weigh 1500
pounds alive, costing on board under $20, or
1 U cent live weight,and giving our friends in
the eastern States and Great Britain such
Texas beef as they never tasted before, the
Johnson grass being full of uutrious sac-
charine matter.
The fear of trespassing unduly on your
valuable space prevents my enlarging on
this important subject at present, but I will,
with your permission, in a future commu-
nication point how the statistics given herein
can be efficiently and economically tested.
If found correct, as I fully believe they will
be, the knowledge will not only add large-
ly to the wealth of this section of the State
by causing the immigration of a large body
desirable citizens from other States and
Europe, and opening a valuable cattle
trade direct by sea from Galveston; then
we may all exclaim, "Floreat Brazoria"
and sister countries, and none will shout
It more loudly and sincerely than yours
truly, A Well-Wisher of Texas.
UNBECOMING STYLES.
An Observer's Protest Againat Women Blindly
Following Fashion.
Itocliestcr Post-Express.
I am so little accustomed to what is known
as society that anything I say about it
should be taken as a disinterested and in-
genuous expression of opinion from an ob-
server to whom certain customs that are
hallowed for society people by convention
may seem new, strange and possibly un-
lovely. A well-known statistician in New
York was described as looking at humanity
from an outside point of view; and occa-
sionally I glance at society in that way.
Recently I went to church to look at the
marriage of a friend whom I greatly ad-
mire. The wedding was what is commonly
called a fashionable one, and there were
present the most of the society people of the
city—many of them in full dress. As the re-
sult of my observation I frankly declare
that I don't like the looks of women in the
prevailing evening costume. Anything
that fashion sanctions is, of course, all
right in the feminine judgment, and I do
not mean to say that every detail of dre3s
was not in the latest style; but I will main-
tain—and it is " an opinion that fire will
not melt out of me "—that, considered
artistically, most of the costumes were un-
becoming. This is especially true of those
cut with acute angles opening upward in
front and rear of the corsage. Far be it
from me to say that the neck, shoulders
and bust of a pretty woman are not
among the most beautiful things in the
world: but the collarbone and the ridge of
the back are not the best points in any
woman's anatomy; and to these points
this style of dress gives undue ex-
posure. Even in cases where the
acute angles were abandoned and
the opening in the corsage broad-
ened into a parallelogram, giving a
fair view of neck, shoulders and
bosom, the effect was not always happy.
In fully nine cases out of ten there was
something incongruous in the result. Either
the arms were not pretty, or the neck was
not graceful, or the bust was not fine, or the
head and face were out of keeping with the
lack of drapery. I know that it is awfully
ungallant to say this. I know that it is a
pleasing fiction that every woman looks
like an angel in full dress: but, dear girls,
tliey are flatterers that tell you so. It is a
trying custom, in which few women look
their best—as trying as a bathing suit, and
how few women can be graceful in that!
What puzzles me is this: That women who
stuay dress so closely and know so well
their own best points should, after all, so
seldom show independence in their costume
and robe themselves as individuals, rather
than in certain styles prescribed by fashion.
Why will they, merely because a certain
cloth, a certain color, a certain shape of
skirt or corsage is in vogue, adopt it when
nature so made them that another material,
another color, another style of garmeut,
would set them off to greater advantage?
A Land Turtle's Adventure.
The other day while the threshers were
threshing the wheat for Joseph Crider, who
lives about three miles south of Greencas-
tle, Pa., the sheaf-opener discovered a land
turtle inside of a sheaf. The reptile was found
to be minus a hind leg, but tne place where
the leg had been cut off had nicely healed
over. The turtle was put outside the barn,
and it scrambled off for pastures green.
When the wheat was cut it was found neces-
sary to set the reaper to cut low on account
of much of the grain being lodged. It is
doubtless that the tortoise was gathered up,
with the exception of the leg which the
knives clipped off, when the self-binder
passed along, and when the sheaf was
tossed from the machine the reptile was
bound within. After remaining seven
weeks therein it was liberated in the man-
ner above mentioned.
