They toll me a funny story about Geronimo," said a man from Arizona at the Palmer house recently. ''While the Apaches were raiding the ranches in the othills of New Mexico they captured a white man who had false teeth, a glass eye end a cork leg. The unfortunate fellow was dragged into the hills where the Indians were encamped and strapped to a tree to die. Just before dusk Geronimo happened to pass the prisoner, who had succeeded in releasing one of his arms from the leather strap which bound him to tlio tree. "Ugh!" grunted the big Apache chief, punching the white man with the muzzle of his Winchester.

"The prisoner thrust his hands into his mouth, removed his teeth and shook them in the face of the Apache. This done, he replaced the plates as quickly as he removed them, and plucking out his glass eye began polishing it on his knee. Geronimo had seen a good many things in his life, but the sight of a man removing his teeth and eyes at will was enough to make the savage's hair stand on end. Without waiting to strip the prisoner of his clothes, as. was their custom, the Apache released the nervy fel low, and putting him astride of a horse fairly begged him to leave the camp.

The settler needed no second invitation. Seizing the animal by the mane he rode a few yards out into the opening, when to the horror of the savages who had been watching his flight, he took off his cork leg and waved it above his head It is said on good authority that this is the first instance on record where the superstition of an Apache got the better of his knife."
