KIRKHAM, MAKER OF FINE BOOTS AND SHOEH, BASEMENT, TEMPLE BLOCK. ORIGINAL SKETCHES. ImlLan War of 1867. BATTLE ON BEAVER CREEK. (Concluded.) by den jenxess.1 111 the meantime it became necessary to procure water from the river, now held by the.

Indians, and for this purpose volunteers were called from the dismounted A sufficient number was soon and these led by Ed. Paramore, Company Clerk of kF" Troop, who vol an teered to conduct this perilous duty, deployed in line, and advanced cautiously, under a heavy lire, which they returned briskly. Reaching the outskirts of the timber. Paramore, saw xhat hi? mn, some fifteen or teen, were taken at a tage by the Indians behind the trees, gave the order for a charge. This movement was, executed gallantly, and sent the Indians Hying, to the opposite side of the river.

The water here being very shallow, and the stream nar row, though the riyer bed itself was about one hundred and fifty feet wide. Our boys reached the Dank, with but one man slightly vy'ounded, and whih the water Armes' move threatened their left flank and rear, they could be seen running back, audto the opposite side of river. Finally, he reached a proper distance, on the left of their position on the Mil, and giving the order to change men came into line on a gallop, and heading for the summit of the hill, they went up the slope with hearty cheer and in gallant style. The steady and regular volleys from the carbines were too much for the random and slow firing of the Indians, and they soon broke and lied in all directions. Their fleet ponies, and their scattered con dition rendered pursuit impossible.

As soon as the squad would make a dash for a knot of Indians, another party of hostiles would rally in their rear and thus Uneaten to cut them off from the train. After an hour or so of this ineffectual skirmishing, Maj. Armes withdrew to the canyon, and the Indians, could be seen gathering at one point. Here they remained until darkness hid them from ourview. Thus ended the battle of Beaver Creek, for the next morning the Indians were gone.

The command, after sending out a few scouting parties, to scour the country, were soon got under way for a return to Ft. Hayes. The wounded, those unable to mount their horses, were crowded into the two ambulances. Tommy Masterson, who had died the day before, was. that night, buried in a bank by the river.

The men, in the absence of spades, digging out the dirt to a sufficient depth, wilh their sabers, and here was left the body, from which had flown as brave a soul, as ever actuated the drawing of a saber. leave our narrative, long enough to state, that in a scout, a week afterwards, Capt. Jen-ness visited the scene of this battle and found this grave, and that of one of the 7th Cavalry, who died from his wounds," the same day, were desecrated. The body of Masterson had been disinterred and most fiendishly mutilated. Another and a better resting place was prepared for the body, and the remains of Constitutional Amendment.

"Artic'e fifteen shall be amended by adding section ten thereto, which shall wad as follows The manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors shall be forever prohibited in this State, except for medical, seieut Uc and mechanical purposes." We take great pleasure in announcing that Miss Francis Yfil-lard, of Chicago, President of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union, is expected in Ottawa sometime early in May. This will be a rare privilege for the people of this town and country. Miss "Willard is one of the foremost advocates of the temperance cause. She is a lady of extraordinary talent; fine character and culture, and is rendering most efficient service in the good cause. It might be a good plan to get up excursions and parties in the country, and give Miss Willard a chance to speak to a large number of people.

She will address the ladies in the afternoon, and the general audience in the evening. While committees have been appointed in connection with the Amendment campaign, no temperance worker should feel excused from active effort, Committees can not do all the work. Every one interested in the cause should at once enter earnestly upon some line of effort. It would be well that it become a common theihe of conversation as neighbors meet. Be sure that no one in your neighborhood is left unreached, We will hope to hear soon of meetings t-Terent parts, of the country, in favor of the Constitutional Amendment.

The committes already appointed should be at work. We would like to receive notices of the meetings, and also publish brief reports of them if sent to this office.

The water squad returned in safety, with an ample supply for all immediate purposes, and the Company cooks began the preparation of the lirst regular meal, the Command had eaten for three days. Soon after dinner, Major his party for a charge upon the Indian lines.

Tile savages were posted upon the'high ground arid nearly surrounding the 'canyon of the troops. Upon a gentle slope to the west, were their main bodies of warriors. Tiie air was so clear, that almost every command of their chiefs could be distinctly heard. At intervals some of them wh-v spoke good English would yell out: ucowe out of that hole, you white of and give us a fair light." or other insulting expressions. Atone time, three of their warriors on foot, came down towards the troops, bearing a white liag.

They were dismounted and apparently unarmed. Thinking that they wanted a conference, Charley Oadaro, a half-breed, who was with he com tn nd, in the capacity of scout, and spoko several Indian dialects, was sent out towards them. was up to Indian tricks, and carried a Spencer carbine beneath his overcoat. Advancing slowly and cautiously towards the now stationary savages, he had no sooner approached within good range, before they threw aside their blankets, leveled their guns andlired. Caduro saw their motion and anticipating their shot, dropped quickly to the ground.

Uncovering his carbine, he poured seven shots after the now fleeing savage, finally bringing one of them to the ground. The wounded Indian's companions returned to him, quickly slung him over the back of the tallest and again made olf. Cadaro, unfortunately, had no more car-itridges with 'him, and his chain Iber being empty, nothing regained for him but to return. 'Jhis little episode put a stop to of truce. When Major had formed his picked l(aquad, he ot.derrd an advance to-vwards, thv.

Tho fldyatuee caused a very perceptible dom motion among tho hos-tilea along the river, and "as brave Tommy, were left alone amid the wild grandeur ot those rugged cliffs, Towell died of lock-jaw, in the hospital at I t. Hayes, on the third day alter the return. His body was interred in the post cemetery, and a neat head-board, cut out by his Captain, marked the quiet spot. This propirly concludes the battle on Beaver Creek, as participated in by the detachment under.

Capt. Jenness, but we will undertake, in another chapter, to describe the light of the main Command, as we have it from Sergeant Frank Heck, who took part in that portion of the light.
