Texas Somebody says Of him that at this
time he looked 1.-The beau ideal Of the typical
border rufIian-" He was tall, thin and dark
complexioned, with long hair and beard.
He rode like centaur, and always carried
knives and pistols, either Of which he was at
any time as ready to use as he was to eat
The Same writer says:
In common with his neighbors in those
days, when he got up in the morning he ex-
amined his silver-mounted Derringers be-
fore he stuffed them in his pocket, to see
that they were ready for instant use; then
he strapped on his six-shooter and his silver
mounted bowie knife, and after getting q
whisky cocktail felt that he was moderately
ready for the ordinary business Of the day.
The average Texan Of those days looked
down upon all northern men as poor white
trash, and David g. Terry tnot yet judge
shared all the bitterest prejudioea of his
race"
Soon the time came when tina golden state
was ready for admission Should it be
slave or free! The question was the uncork-
ing Of the vials OF wrath, It engendered feel
ings which eliminated In bloodshed, assas-
sination, n,obs aud arson. Violent scenes
were enacted in California. There was

Terry, Of course was one Of the hottest Of
thu pro-slavery party. He became one Of It's
leaders. The late Senator Gwin was au-
other. The slavery wing tliumphed at Arst
In consequence Gwin went to the United
States senate and Terry was made Judge Of
the state supreme courc, a. the age Of 50
That Is just the present age Of his bride. He
became chief justice A planter brought =
slave named Archie, to Sacramento at this
time. Archie claimed his freedom, but
Terry sentenced him back to bondage
Archie was, however, rescued BY free
state man.
Il Was during the desperate days Of Cali
tornia A vigilance co1mittee was formed
in San Francisco to free the city from thieves
and murderer Terry aud the governor set
themselves against this committee Arms

Dr. Shirt1ef, friend Of Terry's to resist it
forcibly. The committee undertook to arrest

IAIDA CANOES.


The Haida canoe was shaped out Of a white
cedar log Before the natives had iron tools
their only implements for shipbuilding were
stone hatchets and mussel shell chisels
They ground the shells to sharp edge upon
sandstone. The chief who had plenty of slaves
was the only man rich enough to undertake
the building Of the great .anoe which was the
Haidas' steamship. As many slaves as could
work gathered around tree with their stone
hatchets and shell chisels and haggled at it
till 1t was worn through Then 1t fell, AMI
the other end was hacked of in the sama
way. The top Of the canoe was split of by
wedges The inside was dug out with the
same rude tools It took months to build
such a canoe. They painted the inside with
oil and red ochre. The outside was charred
to blackness by holding burning sticks
against it. Upon the outside, after all was
done, they painted mythical figures and
bears, wolves, and other animals, likewise
fish and birds It is not easy to see how
such a handsome and graceful boat could b
made with stone hatchets
