I THE RETURN.
¦Tr     LL through the hot July fore- /\      uoon   a   luovor's   outfit   had
/%i^ dragged slowly nloug the red, 1^"^ sun liardeuod roud. When It reached tbo toji of a long bill It swerved In uuder the Bh,'i<loyv of some trees and halted. A tall, broad- ahuuldored man clnmbored down from the wagou, and was presently fol¬ lowed by a yuung noiimu In a sunbon¬ net nnd an old man who peered eager¬ ly from side to side. Tbe mules were unharuesKod and fod, and two gaunt, truvel-weuiy cows uutlcd from be¬ hind the wngon nud turned loose to graze. Theu the luau took u fishing pole and started leisurely toward a greou line of Imsbes which could be seeu wiudlng along iu the distance; tUe w-omau weut Iuto the woods to gather fuel.
The old man watched them depart with evident uneuslue-ss. Ho loitered nbout uudocidodl.v. nud nt length walked slowly down the road. .K big dog rose bizil.v nnd followed lilm.
The wagou w-as concealed from he- low by au abrupt bend in the road. Along this wero drooiiliig masses of cbiucapiu bushes. The old mau paused near them and gazed wistfully into the valley. Kvery building, fleld and orchard ii.nssed successively un¬ der bis gaze, and bis dim old eyes grew misty with loving recognition. I'resontly he saw a borsoman In tbo dlstauco, nnd he looked at lilui curi¬ ously. After n while his curiosity changed to Interesi. nnd then to aii- pi'oliousiou. A.l tbo horseman came slowly u|i tbo bill, ho licuiblod vln- lontly, and at last turned aud hurried toward the wagou. .\s he did sn, the dog sprang forward with loud burks of susplclou nnd dcHauce.
Suddenly there ivas a sharp report, aud a thiu circle of siunko rose hazily Into the ail-. As It floated out over the chlncapin bushes the horseiunii came Into view. There was n smile of anniHoineiit ou bis face, which In¬ stantly (llsapiioared as lie glauiod to¬ ward the wagciii. L'ndernoath It was tho form of a man.

ORIGIN   OF   THE    CHER0KEE8.
Creeka     Masaacre.1   the    Keetoowaba    ti Funnel a Lasllna Peace.
From tbe legends of the fuUblood Cberokees, who are known as tbe Kootoowans, who arc desirous of re- t.'iluing their old lawns and customs, some Interesting facta may lie learned.
The Keetoow-ub is not a new ordei of tbe Chorokcos. There wos a tlmf when this order was dreaded by all tbe tribes of the .Vmerican continent. The (^herokees were at one time all members of tbe Keetoowah society nnd w-ere sworn enemies of all other tribes. In those days there were uo wblte Indians, half white blood or mix tui-os. Tbo Kof toowab warriors weut Ic hunches of from six to twelve nnd wnuld kill tt hunting party of any othei tribe they chanced to meet. (Jn ouc occasiou the ("reeks hunched up and weut e t nil a huut—enough of then) to withstand a large bunch of enemk'S —as tboy expected to be uttacked by their friends or enemies, aa the case might be. A portion ot the Crwh warriors kept lu the hnckgroiind and did not .show them.selvcB Iu the day time.
Tbey would Ue around the camp duriug tho day and would go on guard nt night v.'hile the regular huntert took tholr rest. One morning a hand of Keeioowabs made p raid on the Creek hunting camp, hut the ('reeks were rcnd.v for them. The arrow^a fell like hall Into tbe camp. The Creeks wero apparently grently soared and mnde a dash for liberty, but It was a make lielieve. as tbey had reserved tbeir urtows and hid tbem near their oauip. When tbe Keetoowah warrior! rushed Into the camp the Creeks showered tholr arrows directly Into their midst und each Keetoowah war¬ rior got n deadly arrow, save one, who was wounded slightly and captured. .Ml the others, some eighteen or twenty, were riddled with Creek ar¬ rows.
Tbe live Keetoowah warrior wns kept closely watched for a couple ot days and then taken lo his dead com¬ rades ond shown what a Creek could do with u Keetoowah when he made up his mlud to do so. This live Kee¬ toowah was tnld thnt hereafter the Creeks ivould treat them all the same way every chauce raid. The capt\ired Keetoowah wns an old man.
Ho was told thut If he would go homo nutl w-oru tbe other meiuhers nf Ills tribe tboy wnuld spnre his life and would call him their elder brother. He promised to do that, and true to Ills promise be went back to bis owu camp aud cautioned the young Kee- ttiowabs to be careful ahout ii Cri'ck camp and since that time the Creeki aud Cberokees. or Koetoowuhs, have heen friends. Tbu Cherokee or Kee¬ toowah ia or hns Iweu termed the older brother of the Muskogee or Creek ever since that raid ou the CriM'k hunter's camp. The Chernkees were known by uU other tribes ns Koctoo- walls. The name CboroCee was not known nntll a later dote. Tradltbm tells us timt tbe Choctaw wero also dealt with tn the same manner hy the Crooks. The friendship of the Choc- tows after many years wore out and In (ieneral Jackson's war with the Creeks a large party ot the (Ihoctaws Joined General Jackson In fighting the (.Greeks.-(Chicago Kecord-Herald.

"Czolgnsz. lying prustralo, sll!l re- tallied a hold nu his revolver, nud seemed lo be trying tu gel Ills arm froo lu fire again. The President did ii it fall      \\o   raised   bis   right   haul   and
felt   uf  Ills   breast   aud   see d   In   be
uiaintaiiiiug his upright posltlun only by wonderful offnri.
"1 am sure he did not speak at that
moment. He gazed fixedly at his as¬ sailant with a look whieh 1 cannot de¬ scribe, but which I shall uever forget, and lu a moment reeled back Into the arms of Secretary Cortelyon.
"Czolgosz's revolver liad by that time been knocked from his hnnd, and some one had picked up the burning handkerchief whlih lay at his feet. Czolgosz was picked up. forced back nnd again knocked down.
".Mr. Cortel.vou nud Mr. Mllburn supported the President nnd led him to a chnlr. I heard him nsk that the HOWS be kept from his wife, and n mo¬ ment lator, whou Secretory Cortelyou asked him If he felt much pnlu, he said:
" 'This wound hurts very much.'
"Ilo seoinod to lie fairly ensy as be rcBied In the choir, and some ot the fading color come back to his face. He reached his right hand luside of his shirt, and when he withdrew It his fingers were tipped. He paled ngolu nt the sight of the blood, aud I think he tainted.
".Senor Azplroz, the X»exlcan Minis¬ ter, broke through the crowd, and, rushing up to the President, cried; •My Cod. Mr. Pt-osldonl. are you ahot?'
"The Minister seemed about to throw himself at the teet of the Pres¬ ident, nnd was restrained. The Pres¬ ideul's answer came very slowly and lu n bulrlng. subdued voice. He said: •Yos, I believe I nm.' The President was attracted by the scuffle ot the urtlcors who were dragging Ihe would- be murderer awny, hut he did not spook. His head rested oj the arm ot Mr. Mllburu, nnd he seemed ouly partly conscious.
"Ills courage wns superb, and while he was conscious he was masfr of the pain wblch he suffered. When the omhulouee came nnd a stretcher was brought In he started forward and pnrllnlly regained his feet unassisted.
"I heard not a word from the asgall- aut of the President. l\o was atruck down the moinonl ho fired Iho second shot, oud If be did speak It was prob¬ ably In exclamation at the very rough treatiuent he wns receiving."
A prominent Exposition official wbo stood near the President gives n graphic description of the scene at the time Czolgnsz fired tile cowardly shot.
".\ little girl was Immediately ahead of hlni In the Hue," he says, "and the President, after patting hor kindly ou the head. lurned with a smile ot wel¬ come and extended hand,
"The assassin thrust out hoth his hands, brushed nslde the President's right hnud w-lth his lett hand, lurched forward ugnjnst the Presideut, oud, thrusting bis right bond close against his breast, pulled Ihe trigger twice.
'•The shots camo In such lulck suc¬ cession as to be almost simultaneous. At the first shot Ihe Presldeni quiver¬ ed and clutched at his chest. At the second shot he doubled slightly for¬ ward and sank back. It l11 happened In a moment.
¦•(JuIck as wns Czolgnsz he was not quick cuough tn fire a third shot.

This hola, where the bullet went out of the atomaeb, was larger than the Stat; In fact. It was a wound over an Inch In diameter. Jagged and ragged. It was sewed up In tbree layers. Tbia Wound was larger than the wound v here the bullet entered the stomach because the bullet. In Its course, forced tissues through ahead of It.
In tumlng up the stomach, an aet that was absolutely necessary, and w-as performed by Dr, Hann witb great skill, the danger waa that bmm of the contents of the stomach mlgbl go into the abdominal carity and aa • result cause perltonitla. It ao hap* tieueu that there was very little la tba President's atomach at tbe time ot th* operatiou. Moreover, subsequent dt- velopments tend tn show that ttaM feature of the operation was very anc- cessful and that none of tbe content* had entered tbe cavity.
