A FORMER RESIDENT.
Johnnie Bull. Known In Cheyenne. Ar
rested in Omaha.

johnnie Bull, well known to large num-
Der of Cheyenne people, has at last been
arrested and placed in Jail. In early days
in Cheyenne, Bull ran a gambling estab-
lishment here, his place of business being
in a large tent The following from the
Omaha Republican of May ~, will prove
Of interest to many:
The police made a capture last night
which is the first to the many steps now
required to drive out the thugs, toughs,
s~teerers and beats, which infest the city to
an extent hitherto unparalleled. 1t has
been known to the police for the past few
days that a gang of Denver crooks, under
the leadership of the veteran, John II.
Bull, alias more Familiarity johnnie
Bull, was working the city in every branch
of their neiarious profession from high
way robbery to the more refined bunko
games. The marshal obtained evidence
yesterday that such was the case, and
deputized Officers Kurdish and Green to
apprehend the chieftain.
The policemen fell upon 'Johnie's
trail early in the evening and kept it
steadily until 1920 this morning, when
their prey, accompanied by John Mann,
of road house celebrity, started to find
a nights lodgings in one of the leading
hotels in the city. AT the door the Off
GERS stepped up to their man and invited
his company. He demurred, and Mann
attempting to support the demurrer, both
were marched to the jail, where Bull was
incarcerated and his companion released
with a reprimand for interfering with Off
GERS of the law.
Johnny Bull is a nan with more than
his share of unenviable notoriety. He is
celebrated as a fit companion for the i'm
mortal Doc. Baggs in all the wiles which
bring money easily. He has killed his
man, made and lost a dozen fortunes and
evaded the penalty Of the law for more
than twenty years of malfactions. His
latest half decent venture has been in
Denver where he conducted the Turf FIX
change, a saloon and gambling room.
Bull is a man whom few would select
at sight for a crook. He is a trife less
than medium stature, has refined intelli-
gent features, graced with a full iron
gray beard and dressed to modest perfec-
ton. His manner of speech is frank and
business like, and carries reinsurance in
almost every case when suspicion has
been found against him; to his tongue
he owes countless escapes from imprison-
ment.
When searched last night, aside from a
handsome gold watch and a few small
coin, he had no money nor articles Of
value. But he had a device which in his
hands is probably collateral 1t was a
pasteboard card, stamped with counterfeit
dies of a 500 and a $50 bill, 80 that when
bent about a roll of newspaper, which
appears on the edge like bank bills, could
fash the impression of a heavy stake.
The charge of suspicious character was
put against his name and on this accusa-
ton he will be given a hearing.

A WISCONSIN Congressman's Farm.

A Hixton correspondent describes
the Price farm in that town, as "big
plantation" The tract is a consolida-
ton of dozen or more farms. embrace
Ing 1888 acres, of which 1900 acres
are under cultivation. To inclose and
subdivide it, necessitated the building
of 40 miles of fence, at a cost of $4,000.
The correspondent adds 1.-The work.
ing force is from 80 to 40 hands, who.
at the close of each season, are en-
ployed in the logging camps of Mr..
Price. The average yearly products
may be summed up as follows: Hay,
from 800 to 1000 tons; wheat, from
1000 to 5000 bushels; the corn crop
has varied as the season was favorable
or unfavorable. The past season the
yield was 5000 bushels of ears, or 5000
bushels of shelled; the crop of beets
raised was between 1000 and 5000
bushels. The yearly revenue for the
sale of horses, cattle. sheep and hogs,
is over $4,000. The stock now on
hand, and being wintered over. is 108
horses, 60 cows. and % heifers, the
latter coming in next spring; also "a
breeding sows and 500 shoats, averag-
ing 6 months old. For home use are
kept thousand hens. over hundred
geese, and nearly that number of tur-
keys. During the festive holidays high
living is had at the Price farm and log
ging camps. The machine work of the
farm requires three mower, two reap
ers, two self-binders. one hay fork,
operated by horse power, and one hay
press. A creamery operated on one Of
the sections, turns out superior ar
ticle of butter-equal to any made in
Jackson county. This product is most
~ consumed on the farm, and in the
logging camps. "-MtlaOGukes wis. J

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.

Coraline. a substance now extern
sively used in manufacture in this

ixtle plant, which grows in Mexico
and one part Of South America
An English botanlst of some note
has recently been showing the mean
bers of TIE Linnaan society the prin-
ciples that underlie the individuality
Of plants, with the special object 3Of
proving that plants have dim sort of
intelligence, and are not merely an ag-
gregation of tissues responsive to the
direct influence of light.
In communication to the French
Academy of Science, Mons. A. H. de
Villeneuve has urged the importance
Of using distilled water for drinking
purposes. and has suggested that the
cost may be greatly reduced by using
that obtainable from steam engines.
He asserts that it is not unpalatable
and contains sufficient air, while the
absence of lime salts Is an advantage.
While some naturalIsts have seen
reasons for believing that light of
some kind must exist several thousand
fathoms below the surface Of the sea,
1t is very improbable that sunlight

eva, Messrs. Fol and Sarasin have Just
found that the strength Of the light in

DR.. Washington Matthews has been
shown that the American Indians, and
especially the Navajos, are in many
respects superior in their knowledge of
natural history to the white men who
have not made the subject special
study. They are keen observers, not
only of the animals and plants which
contribute Co their sustenance and
other needs, but also of those which
are unused, rare and inconspicu9us.
The Navaios have a name for every
mammal. bird and reptile in their
country, and for nearly every plant,
and all the larger insects; and their
knowledge Of the several species; is
usually minute. They have made
many divisions into groups which are
identical with those recognized by the
Caucasian naturalist; and this some
times occurs when it seems incredible
that the Indians could have discovered
the characters on which the white
naturalist bases his classification.
