Governor McCook Is the man who caused
Coorows deposition as a chief During his
administration Colorow and band of TItes
came to this city aud camped on the outskirts.
One day the chief sent word that he wanted
new tent. McCook dispatched an agent TO see
in what condition Coorow's tent was. and the
report was that he did not need new tent,
aud McCook accordingly refused him. In tho
afternoon, while the Governor was in his Office,
CoorOw come in half drunk, with revolver
in his hand, and came over where McCook
was writing and sat down. The Governor
took in the situation at glance, but did not
look up.
"McCook liar !" said Colorow.
The Governor went on writing.
"McCook, dam liar ~ repeated the chief.
Still McCook continued with his work.
"McCook, G-d-m liar - said Colorow,
reaching climax
Nevertheless McCook would not look at
him.
by this time Colorow had concluded that
there was no fight in the Governor, and al
lowed the hand containing the revolver to
drop 10 his side Tho move was a fatal one
In an instant McCook seized his wrist, knocked
the weapon away from him and catching tho
tonished Indian by the neck kicked him
down stairs and out into the street, where
there were number of Utes standing about.
With great tact, McCook pointed to the pros
trate and humiliated form of Colorow, and
turning to the Utes, said mo man to lead
braves. Colorow IN old woman. Get man
for chief" Then, turning on his heel lie
walked up stairs. The next day the morti-
fled Utes deposed Colorow.

ton he preferred it to any other method of
locomotion he found in It rest, recreation

walk with him, in town and country, was one
of the highest compliments which be, who
paid so few compliments could offer. Many
are the happy hours along London streets aud
Rochester roads that memory now tcnderly
recalls; but these pleasures do not obiterate
the recollection of the exquisite pedestrian
pains that followed my first walk with Dickens.
There was nothing, except my friends tenta-
tive question at tho station, to prepare me for
the sacrifice. basket carriage was waiting
at Gad's Hill Station to drive me to the Dick
ems mansion in time for dinner Next day tho
host himself drove me about Gotham Park.
1t was not until the second morning. when we
had become better acquainted, that he pro-
posed to walk to Rochester, around Rochester,
through the marshes, to Gravesend, by Chalk
Church, that sent me back to London foot
sorc from unaccustomed exercise, but with
head and heart full of tho genial aud wise
gossip OF the great novelist. Not quite
twenty miles out and back" said Dickens, as
we reached Gad's Hill Gate "but good walk
ing for five hours and a half, considering the
country" Considering, too, he might have
added, tho stoppages for hearty laughter; tho
episodes of fower.gathering aud stair-climb-
ing; tho visits to roadside hostelries, old
church-yards aud curious ruins; the talks with
tramps, with children, aud with inquisitive
dogs, and the merry accompaniment Of anec-
dote "reminiscences and remark, that made
