I RESTORED I By ELLEN TORBERT Copyright by American Presfc Association, 1911. n My parents were frontier people, and during an uprising of th? Apache tribe their house was burned. It so happened that when the attack was made my father bad gone east and my mother had left me asleep in my crib to have a chat with a neighbor. The^ Indians took me. a little chap but three />j,i t,ml ?lio first- rnv mother knew of the matter was seeing the light of her burning dwelling. Those who were with her dragged her, shrieking, to a point where protection was to lie had. and she never heard what had become of me. There seemed to lie no doubt, however, that I had perished either by a tomahawk or in the burning building. All this came to my knowledge long afterward. Meanwhile I was taken care of by and wandered about with the Indians. When I grew older, not liking the treatment. I received from them and having learned that I came from n different race, 1 ran away from them and appeared one evening at the enmpfire of some white men. I gained little if any improvement in my companionship, for I had struck a gang of men who lived by rascality, p rincipally horse stealing. They suffer d me to remain with them, and, since I had not learned from the .V?r?hes that an Indian owed auy Indulgence to the whites, It did not appe :r to me that these villains were \ cry b.-: .1 men. They asked me how I rcTve to be brought up by savrg^s. but I was too young when captured to remember much about it. There was a faint glimmer of memory cf a painted savage bending over me and my being carried, kicking and squalling, from a Nvarm bed out Into a cold nigbt. We are made by our environment, especially our associates, and I became a horse thief. I was about fifteen when I joined the gang, and since I had learned many strategic methods from the Indians they found me quite a valuable addition to tneir oana. i remained with them several months, when we were Attacked by a vigilance committee. Some of us were captured and hanged, the reat escaping, I among the number. I drifted after this, picking up the best living I could. The first language I had learned was Apache, so I spoke broken English and was usually mistaken for a foreign born youth. My antecedents did not conduce to my being considered trustworthy, and I was usually soon expelled from any settlement I entered. I soon forgot any redeeming traits that I had learned from the Indians, and I had never galued any such from my white associates. When I was about eighteen I got together several young rascals about my own age and organized them into a band of horse thieves, of which I appointed myself the leader. We did such a thriving business that at last it became necessary for the settlers living iu the region we infested to hunt us down. A man we robbed pot together a posse, armed with rifles, who followed and attacked us. killing one ?? ?- ? 1? or my men aim wuunuiu^ ui,\?i-n uuu another. Our captors would have hanged those of us they hadn't killed in the fight, but they were law abiding men and hadn't the heart to string up wounded men. We two who had been winged they put on their hoi st s. and we all went back to the settlement from which they had cotne. Tlie> principal man of the lot gave me his lior.se and walked beside me. ITe asked me a number of questions aud wanted to know to what nationality 1 belonged. 1 told liini my accent came from the Apaches, by whom I had been brought up. Then he wished to know all about my capture, and I told him ail that I remembered, which was a faint vision of a painted Indian lookintr at me and carrying me in his arms. My listener questioned tue with u view to llndiug out what point I had been taken from, but trained no satisfaction in this re-peet. Wnen we reached the settlement ray questioner broutrht liis wife to see me, and they both stood a short distance from me, looking at me and talking about rae, the woman evidently much affected. They went away and after awhile came back with a man to where we were sitting under guard and asked him to do something. lie looked at us all, then, pointing to me, said. "If any of them is. that's the one." The woman began to take on, becoming hysterical. She looked wistfully at me and tried to come to me, but they wouldn't permit her. They made tests with a number of persons as they had with the first man. and the majority said that I looked like one or the oth?r of them. ??? i i 11 r i *?, ? - i : SHORT NEWS ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST' AS THEY COME AND AS THEY GO Short Headless Paragraphs GethereJ Hero and Tliore Especially For The Busy Reader.
