Show v Apaches at Large. Las Vergas Optic. From a gentleman who has just returned re-turned from the lower country, and who is cool enough to pick up pointers as he goes, without getting unduly excited, ex-cited, it is learned that the band of Apaches from Arizona, now operating in Sierra county, near Kingston anu Hilborro, numlwr seventeen. The question ques-tion is.howdid they get so far into New Mexico without having been discovered until they had killed the two miners about the middle of the month? And why does the agent at the San Carlos agency report thero are no Indians absent ab-sent from the agency? There is a screw looRe somewhere. Capt. Keyes, an old Indian fighter, is in command of the regular cavalry from Fort Bayard, and with the aid of the citizens iu that vicinity, vi-cinity, it seems impossible for these renegades to escape. They may attempt at-tempt to make their way into Old Mexico, Mex-ico, but they will be mot with a warm reception. |
