Elk.shOOting in Colorado.

Elk are found in almost every part OF
the park, generally in the timbered
country or on slopes, singly and in bands
of ten or fifteen, according to the season.
With proper care they can be stalked as
near as one hundred and fifty yards, but
a good hunter who "jumps" herd at
FIVE hundred yards will bag three-fourths
of the number before they are out OF
range. When dressed they weigh eight
hundred to twelve hundred pounds but
as a dozen tall fellows, their horns laid
back, 90 crashing and laundering
through the thick pine forest, leaving
a storm of branches and dust in their
wake, each elk may be easily estimated
to weigh ton.
If wounded at close quarters in the
timber, they are dangerous foes, and
quick and accurate shooting is needed,
unless the hunters prefer to climb a
tree, which is an awkward predicament,
detrimental to temper and garment, and
provocative Of unfeeling remarks from
comrades when one returns late in the
night to camp.
The beauty and majesty Of the stately
creature require no description, and often
will the hunter grieve over his glory
laid low; yet elk-steaks and roasts are
so nice, his hide makes such elegan,
buck skin, and his branching antler,
form such an elegant trophy and me-
mento, that tears are seldom shed at hi.

A Horseback JauntOf Four Thousand
Miles. .,....

Captain Willard Glazier, who rode out
of Boston on the 9th of May last, intend
ing to make horseback ride across the
continent has returned to the Hub. He
accomplished the undertaking, but,
Judging from his story, must be heartily
glad it is over. The time occupied by
the journey was two hundred days, the
captain reaching the Golden Gate on the
oath day of November. The actual num-
Der of days in the saddle was one hundred
and forty-four, which gives an average of
twenty-eight miles and seven-tenths per
day. During this journey of four thou
sand miles Captain Glazier delivered
forty-four lectures for the Grand Army
fund and also for the Custer fund, visited
six hundred and forty-eight cities, vii
lagos and stations. He tested the merits
of three hundred and thirty-six hotels
farm houses and ranches and made
special visits to one hundred public in
stitutions and places of resort. He killed
three buffaloes, eight antelopes, twenty
two prairie wolves; was captured by the
Sioux, killed two of them, escaped and
came East by railroad, fully apprecia-
ting the value of steam as a motive
power, and the comfort of living in
civilized community.

Why the Americans Became Repub.
lican.
National Repository. !


The origin of American Republican
ism is very easily determined. "Col-
onies are naturally democratic. Removed
from the presence of authority, men
develop their individuality and learn
self-reliance." This was largely dis
played by our colonial ancestors, and it
is still strongly marked trait of the
national character. The policy of the
British Government aided this tendency.
To encourage the planting of colonies,
liberal charters were granted to pro-
prietaries, and these in turn granted
large privileges TO their cOlonists. Thus
the plantations were from the first little
republics, where men learned the arts of
self-goverDment and became impatient
of authority, and also discovered that
all the real benefits of government could
be enjoyed without the pomp or the
burdens of royalty. From such causes
grew up. quite naturally, the ideas and
the sentiments of both republicanism
and independence. The early confedera-
ton and the eventual union of the sew
eral colonies in common government
were the natural and inevitable results
of the common character of the people
and the conditions that surrounded
them. Before the Revolutionary con-
flict was begun the whole social and
political mass had become quite homo
genoeus. The people were one in Ian
guage, in religion, and in their social
and civil institutions. The settlements
Joined hard upon each other, and men
passed and repassed their boundaries
without the thought of having gone into
foreign parts. The idea of kind of a
national unity of the colonies possessed
the common intelligence, and began to
warm the common heart with the in
cipient patriotism some time before it
was SO strongly evoked by the coming
on Of the Revolutionary struggles. That
conflict greatly itensified all these tend
encies to national unity, and cOnsoli-
dated the incipient patriotism of the
people. True and enduring love OF
country can be nursed into its full yigor
only among conflicts and dangers; it
must be matured under the hard hand
of oppression, and baptized in blood.
The long agonies through which America
passed into complete political indepen-
dence were needed disciplinary exercises,
andthey have abundantly repaid their
cost. Without them our national great
ness could not have been achieved. Out
of the fres of the Revolution our nation
came forth, fused into quick and
earnest patriotism.

Tricks on q Tragedian.


John Mccullough was once playing
the Prince of Morocco in the Merchant
of Venice" at the old Metropolitan
Theater, when the boys put up job on
him. You know they put three caskets
on table, one of which the Prince
opens. Some wag got the caskets from
the property man and fixed a jack-in-
the-box inside, 20 that when the lid was
opened the jack would, fly up. John
walked up, bent over the box turned
the key, when up few one Of those
elongated jacks with red wooden head,
and hit John on the nose. You never
saw such an astonished man since
Balaam's ass attempted to draw his mas
ter into conversational debate, and, OF
course, the whole effect of the scene was
lost amid the roar of the audience. As
soon as Mccullough got behind the
scenes he suspected poor Jack Billings,
who had no hand in the trick, and black
ened an eye for him. l'-,a.n, 'i.' b.
When Little Mac, the minstrel, first
came to Frisco, he was totally unknown,
and one night the boys put a job on Nc
Cullough, rs usual. He was playing
Rolla, and there is scene when he
rescues little child, and, while holding
him on his shoulder, cuts away bridge.
They dressed up Little Mac as a child,
and when Mccullough attempted to raise
him on his shoulders. it took all his
strength and made him stagger good
deal Suddenly Little Mac whispered in
Big Macs ear, "If you let me drop I'll
bust the stuffing out of you" John was
so astonished that he let the dwarf drop
and the scene ended in farce.

Terrible Sufierings OF German Col
Ony In Dom PedrO's Delightful
Country.

The colonization of Brazil is not likely
to advance at a very rapid rate, if the
story related by Thomas Diller, who is
now at Castle Garden. is to be believed.
He narrates the experience of a party of
Germans, who emigrated in the spring
of 1874, from Nuremburg to the Colony
of TERRA del Orc. The emigrants had
signed articles presented by Brazilian
agent, who had stated that the colony
which he represented was in good order,
that the land was under cultivation,
and that block-houses had already been
erected in the colony. When the mis-
guided Germans reached the colony
they found it uncultivated, and in its
place a wilderness filled with vipers,
tigers, chattering monkeys, and parrots.
A party of colonists who had preceded
them were sick and living in rudely
constructed huts, and many had already
died. The rain fell steadily for three
months after their arrival, and over
three hundred died during the first
month of their residence in the new
colony, and between the time of the
arrival of OILERS party in July, 1874,
until its departure in the following De-
cember, eighteen hundred and thirty of
the four thousand colonists died. Baron
NUNS, of Bahia, surrounded the colony
with detachment of five hundred police
from Bahia, and prevented the departure
of those emigrants who attempted to
make their escape. Several of the men
were shot by the guard, but ultimately
four men succeeded in reaching Cuman-
dale, where Julius Meyer, the assistant
German consul resided, and the latter,
after hearing the stories of the cruelties
practiced upon his unfortunate country
men, demanded that they should suffer
no further molestation. Opposition by
the Brazilians ceased, and the Germans
began to leave in crowds. Some of them
came to this country, but the majority
of them returned TO Europe.

An Armchair With u History.


A curious story is better told in Paris
about an armchair which has been be-
queathed by an old woman who has just
died in one of the alms-houses there to
the Louvre for the collection known as
the Museum Of Sovereigns. Lf8i .
This arm chair was presented more
than century ago TO the Empress
Maria Theresa, who had it placed in her
boudoir. At her death, and in compli-
ance with her express injunctions, it was
sent to Queen Marie AntOinette at Yer
sailles, and formed part of the furniture
provided for Louis XVI during his inn
prisonment in the temple. After his
execution his valet removed it to Eng
land, where it became the property of
the prince of Wales and then of the
Duke of Cumberland. The latter took
it with him to Berlin, where it was
placed in the hands of an upholsterer to
be repaired.
The workman to whom the armchair
was given discovered, upon removing
the horse-hair with which it was stuffed,
diamond pin, the portrait of boy, and
several sheets of manuscript. He did
not mention the discovery to his master.
but soon afterward sold the pin to a
jeweler, giving him at the same time the
portrait and the papers. The jeweler
succeeded in making out from the pa
pers, which were written in French. that
they consisted of series of instructions
from Louis XVI to his son, and that the
portrait was that of the Dauphin.
A few years afterward the jeweler,
whose name was Nauendorf, claimed to
be Louis XVII, the son of Louis XVI
and Marie Antoinette, producing as evil
dence in his favor the portrait and pa
pers, and, as will be remembered, he i'm
posed upon many people. The workman
who had made the discovery was natur-
ally disinclined to say how Nauendorf
had become possessed of these docu-
ments; but when he was at the point of
death he communicated the fact to his
family, by whom the armchair, which
the Duke of Cumberland had left at Ber-
lin, was recovered and sold to French
man. He took it with him to Paris, and
his widow was brought to such poor cir
that it was the only article
of furniture remaining in her possession
when she entered the alms-house in
which she died last week.

Remarkable Case.

The Oswego Palladium relates the
following case: Robert Dore, the sex.
ton of St.. Paups cemetery, last week
removed the body Of child from one
lot in the cemetery to another. The
body was inferred in February, 1897,
nearly twenty years ago, in a metallic
burial case. After exhumation, the iron
casting which covered the glass plate
was removed, and a remarkable state OF
things was revealed. The face had the
appearance of recent death-looking as
though it had been buried only few
days. There was not the slightest ap-
pearance of decomposition, except in the
sinking of one of the eyes. The rest OF
the face was full, with no discoloration,
and bore the natural pallor of corpse.
There was, of course, no exposure to the
atmosphere while the examination pro-
ceeded. The metallic case was fine one,
inclosed in the usual wooden box. The
latter badly decayed, but the case was
only slightly corroded. The remains Of
other children of the same family, which
were removed at the same time, and
which had been buried much shorter
time, and in metallic caskets, were found
TO have crumbled to dust.
