A NOTED NEGREss.
The First Woman who Crossed the
Plains to Colorado.
from a Dtnper Letter


"Aunt" Clara Brown, formerly slave,
who is credited with being the first woman
TO cross the plains into Colorado, died
Monday in Denver, at her homo on Arm
pahOe street. She was the only female
member OF the Colorado Pioneers Assoc
citation, and was the pet OF that body,
numbering over 400 people. Aunt Clara
Brown was upward of SO years OF
age. She remembered the out
break OF the war of 1872 well, and was a
half-grown girl at that time. In her
youth she was owned by a planter in
Logan county, KY, who sold her to some
one one who emigrated TO hansaS,
where she managed TO obtain her
freedom, and started with a wagon
train to Colorado. Sue had no money
with which TO pay her passage and so acted
as cook in order 20 pay for her transport
tation. The WAGON train arrived at Dem
yer in June, 1859, having encountered
some 800 Indians on the way. Aunt Clara
was never afraid of the Indians, as she
had Indian blood in her veins, her grand
parents having been saYages. She was
born philanthropist. and when President
Lincoln set the negroes free she took her
savings and iOurneyed TO Kentucky for
her people. Later she returned with %
members OF her family, men and women,
iNA AT VI Wuoul SUE hNAu lui Wokph idtNs
and who have long since married and in
termarried until they and their descend
ants form notable part of the oolored
community in Colorado. Aunt Clara's
husband and children we're sold
away from Ter long before
the war. The children were in their
infancy. Two years 90 Aunt Clara heard
that one Of her slave sold daughters was
living at Council Bluffs, Iowa, and she
gathered enough money by hard labor to
take her to Council Bluffs. There she
met her daughter, from whom she had
been separated 40 years, and brought her
back to Denver with her. The long lost
daughter was the sole comfort OF Aunt
Clara's declining days. In an early day
here she engaged in numerous noble char
titles, turned her home into a hospital, u
hotel, and general refuge for those who
were sick or in poverty. IL those who
made her home their home were able to
pay her for what they received, she ac-
cepted it; II not, did not matter. AT one
time she accumulated a large amount
of property, but lost it all through the
schemIng Of her agents.

EATING DOG MEAT.
An Eloquent Expert Comes to the De-
Tense OF the Uptown salOOnkeeper.

From the Cook.
A German saloonkeeper in PHILADELPHIA
a few days since served up as free lunch
to his patrons big, black dog that, from
his point Of view. seemed 10 be Of no other
use. Somebody found it out, and made "A
row about il. The German was arrested
and held under 5000 bonds for trial, but

ports Of the proceedings made by the
Philadelr hia press.
The prisoners counsel wanted the COM

in the statutes OF Pennsylvania prescribed
the cooking aud eating OF dogs. The
magistrate wouldn't. but cOntented him
self with the somewhat vague peneraliza-
ton that "this ia civilized Cor, as one
report had u, "a Christian country"
II is probably a fair inference that he
couldn't put his finger on the called-fnr
law. and there is not a little curiosity
abroad az 70 what the German can he

The otlense alleged.
Abstinence from dog meat can hardly
be deemed the distinguishing characterls-
tic OF Christian or civilized countries, or

and barbarian. During the siege OF Paris
dogs were generally deVOured.
A story is told Of a Partisan lady Of
fashion who, having eaten her lap dog,
looked s0rrOwfully az the pile Of bones by
her plate, and said. with tears in her
eyes: Poor Fido; If he were alive how
much he would enjoy them"
But even when not driven 10 IL by the
