OBODY ever sus-
was one of Uncle
Sam's military sta-
tions, Cochita, as
she was called, was
one of the most
docile of the inhabitants. Yet she
threw herself into the swiftly rushing
current of the Colorado river and her
body drifted out to the sea. Cochita
had a history, which, in the hands of
a Dumas, might be the ground work of
a startling romance. But she was
only an Indian, or, rather, Mexican
girl, and had no chroniclers to tell of
her sorrows. She was captured with

One morning Cochita was missing.

riding and difficulty.
Away down in the state of Sinaloa,
Mexico, yeais ago dwelt a ranchman
with his wife and family of little ones.
He was a man of means and the chil-
dren, as soon as they reached the
proper age, were sent to the convents
for the education needed to retain their
position in that half-civilized world.
One night the Neviches swept down
on that hacienda and when the light of
the new day came there was nothing
left but the smoking ruins and the
mutilated bodies of the once happy
family to mark the place where the
home had stood. One little girl, then
but a baby, was not killed, because a
squaw took a fancy to her. She was
made a prisoner and carried away
north with the rest of the plunder.
She was Cochita. Her proper name was
lost and she was called after the fam-
ous chief who devastated the south-
west until his age compelled him to
surrender the reins of government to
his nephew.
It was a busy time at the post in the
center of Arizona when word was re-
ceived that a band of the savages was
out mixing war medicine with all the
whites who crossed their trail. Cap-
tain Holbrook was ordered to take the
field with his own, A troop, and K
troop of his regiment to corral the hos-
tiles or die ia the attempt. He had

he observed the figure of the girl,
dressed all in white, standing on a rock
overlooking the yellow, turbid, but
rapidly rushing flood of water below.
As lie drew near he heard a soft voice
singing a song. It was the death la-
ment of the Neviches. Cochita was
mourning her lover before Joining him
in the happy hunting grounds. She
sang softly and then the voice rose
with a wail which halted the soldier.
Then he advanced quietly, for he knew
what was coming and hoped to be able
to reach her before she threw herself
into the stream. She tossed her arms
over her head, pulled her garments
about her arms, and wept for a time.
Then as the soldier reached out to
clasp her in his arms she suddenly
turned toward him, shrieked wildly
and fell from the rock Into the river.
All that was possible was done to
recover the body, but everything which

burst out laughing and said: "It seems

the principal inquiry she makes is how
often during the week can her son have

ered the school par excellence, for
there the boys can have baths three
times a day if they wish. It is amusing
to see how the same instinct is im-
planted In the mothers of all nationali-

the Catholic French mother wishes to
purify her son's soul that he may be

the scouts, aid he ordered Lieutenant
Curtis to take the advance with 25
men.
He made his way to the front with
all possible speed and was rewarded
one night by seeing the watch fires of
the hostiles all around his position.
Late at night he was prowling about
his camp decidr-dly uneasy concerning
the outlook. He approached one of
tha beats where a sentry was keeping
a wary eye out for the hostiles and was
surprised to obEerve the man lying flat
on the ground with his carbine point-
ing to the north. He concluded some-
thing was wrong and advanced to in-
estigate.
"What is it, sentry?" he asked, as he
neared the place where the man was
lying.
"Indians, sir. I think they are In
camp Just at the base of the hills at our
front. If they don't know we are here
we have a fair chance to surprise
them."
"Wouldn't wonder. Keep your eye
peeled and nport if any motion is
made."
Curtis then turned on his heel and
made his way back to camp. He
roused the men, cautioned them
against any noise, and marched the
whole body to the point where the ;
watchful sentry was still keeping his
eye peeled. There the men were or-
dered to mount and at the word that
small band of troopers plunged into
that sleeping camp of Indians, the
heavy pistols sounding the alarm.
Right through the camp the boys in
blue rushed, shooting everything in
sight. They passed to the other line of
the camp, wheeled and started to re-
turn.
"Give them the steel," yelled Curtis,
the flush of battle mantling his cheeks.
The Indians—all who were left—has-
tened to the recesses of the mountains
and hid in the numerous arroyos. The
troops were called off and the Moqui
scouts camped on the trail of the scat-
tered remnant of the band.
As Curtis rode back to the forest
with the purpose of getting his people
together and starting to the rear, a
shot was fired and his forage cap flew
into the air. The magazine of a rifle
was quickly thrown and another shot
was about to follow when a couple of
men seized the would-be slayer and
bore the figure and rifle to the earth.
Under the feet of the owner of that
rifle lay the dead body of a young In-
dian whose dress, and especially his
war bonnet, indicated that he was a
chieftain. A bu'.let through the lungs
had let out his life, but not until he
had run into the woods with the pur-
pose of hiding. The rifle he carried
was used by the girl—for It was Co-
chita—to avenge his death.
"Hold!" cried Curtis, as he held back
the arm of the sergeant who was about
to run the girl through "Don't you

When Klepbiints Inhabited Europe.
Recent study of the remains of stone
and flint implements found near Abbe-
ville, France, has strengthened the be-
lief that when those implements were
made by prehistoric men, elephants be-
longing to two species were abundant
in that part of Europe. But of course
the date in centuries, or even in thou-
sand-year periods, cannot be ascer-
tained. No writings or inscriptions or
knew whence it came and whither it
traditions have been handed down from
that early rac- of men to their civilized
descendants of to-day. All we have
been able to learn, from the remains of
chipped stones and bones, is that they
lived among, and frequently hunted
and fought with, animals that had
ceased to inhabit Europe when record-
ed history began.
