life he leo among the sioux and other
Indian tribes. Rowland knew Father
De Smet well and often assisted him when
holding service among the Indians.
Rowland next drifted south from Da-
kota and Wyoming, leaving the home of
the Sioux to follow the early Colorado
gold hunters. "a 1860 he was at Central
Szey, Col, and that winter was terrible
one for poor Jack. Times were hard and
many was the night that he went to bed
cold and hungry. He had a partnernamed
Soloon B. Ackley, who was good fiddler:
Jack was good dancer. They called
themselves the Troubadours, and for
weeks their only meal day was earned
by Ackley playing the fiddle and Jack
dancing in the cabins along the gulch.
What did the miners in those days care
for art9 They would rather see Jack
dance Jig than buy one of his pictures.
To hear Jack Rowland tell the story OF
that winter, and he is splendid story
teller, the comical side Of it will make you
laugh, and then the days and nights he
was hungry and cold, why there is a
pathos in itt that will bring moisture to the
eye. Ackley playing the fiddle and Jack
dancing TO earn a meal seemed almost
a parallel to Trowbridge's touching poem
of "Roger and l." 1t was an everto-be-
remembered winter for Jack Rowland,
and thus flourished art in the mining
camps in 1860. In 1861 he went into the
army, enllstlnR IN company Is, First Col
orado. He was in several hard fights and
was with Col. ChiyiDgton, the Fighting
Methodist parson," at Apache Canon. In
this fight, among the killed was one
named John Holland, but the name was
reported East "John Howland.n And
then letters came from his parents at
GAINESVILLE to officers asking that the re-
mains of their boy might be sent back to
his old home for burial. There was a
tender pathos in this, and Rowland tells
this part of the story almost with wom-
anly tenderness. They had longingly
looked for some news from the absent
boy, and their first tidings came from the
battle field that he was dead. He served
during the Indian warfare, and August 8,

The question, do nice women smoke,

which they may smoke if they SO choose!
The latest novelty exhibited in a Broad
way jewelry store is a tiny pipe that only
woman could carry to her lips. It's stem
is trifle shorter and smaller in diameter
than the average emeerschaum and is made
of gold set with garnets, moonstones and
emeralds. The mouthpiece is Of yellow
and pink veined onyx and the bowl which
might hold half thimbleful, is heavily
set with small gems. The toy is worth
something like $780, and at a gilt-edged
fine affair when cigars are brought in
with the coffee, if a lady chooses to re-
main al the close of dinner, it may make
prettier combination than beauty and
the cigarette. The ieweler says that the
first pipe of this sort was made TO order
for woman of some social position and
that lie has had four or five calls for them
since. The talk of ladies smoking is much
exaggerated, however. There are num-
bers Of Cubans and Spaniards and some
French women of beauty and position who
buy cigarettes in person, smoke them at
dinners and offer them to lady friends in

ARTIST, SCOUT AND HUNTER
THE HISTORY OF JACK HoWLAND's
. p ADVENTUROUS CAREER.

2nis Experiences with the Sioux Indians
A sound Floggins from the squaws--
Magic Which nIystified the Indians
His Buffalo Hunts and Art Works.
tCopuight 1881
The life of Jack Rowland makes a
strange story, reading more like the pages
from Munschausen than the simple story
of the only frontier artist For thirty one
years he has been artist, guide, hunter,
scout and miner in the Rocky Mountain
country. Had not Jack Rowland early
in life left his Ohio home for the frontier,
there would have been no artist to hand
down to us types Of Western life that no
longer exist, for the buffalo, which he
excels in painting, has almost become ex-
tinct. Conditions have changed, and the
half-starved Indians on their reservations
are not the noble type they once were.
His pictures are from the last dark back
ground on the borderland of civilization,
for railroads and not the old-time hunter
now blaze the trail. Whether q boy
among the Sioux or in the employ Of the
American Fur Company; whether scout
ing for the veteran Gen. Harney or in a
frail boat threading the dark canons of
the Rio Grande for 1000 miles where
white man and explorer had never heen
or ever dared to go; whether ON the trail
or in the mining camps, Jack Rowland
never forgot the one thing dearest to his
heart--his art. He was n sketch artist
for Hdrpcr's Weekly, for which he drew
many scene of Indian warfare and from
tier life. At the age of II he ran away
from his home, GAINESVILLE, Ohio, eager to
see the far West and be an artist on the
frontier. His parents had been kinl and

1864, was mustered out and started for
Europe to study art, visiting his parents
en- route. II ws
Crossing the plains he was with the
famous Hunt train which was attacked
by thousands of Indians. Hunt, then
United States Marshal and late Governor
OF Colorado, was conveying prisoners to
Jail in Michigan. At his request How
land organized the train and for nine diff
ferent days they fought Indians. Ammu-
milton was about gone, and the last night
he loaded their only cannon with trace
chains to be ready for the early morning
attack the Indians were sure to make.
he dampened gunny sacks to load the
cannon. The next morning it was 20
degrees below zero and atdaylight Indians
attacked the train. 1t occurred to How
land that the sacks would be frozen and
the cannon would burst. For the mo-
ment he stepped back and hesitated. On
came the Indians, and terrified women
and children were huddling up close to
the wagons "When l saw those terror
stricken women and children" said How
land, II could hesitate no longer, but
never was placed in a position where it
took more nerve than to fire that old
cannon. 1t went off all right, though"
The Indians carried away their dead,
but half a dozen dead and dying horses
were found. That was the last attack of
the Indians on that wagon train.
Then going TO Europe he studied art
with Armand Dumaresq, in Paris, and
Others in Italy. Returning in 1867 he
went South to paint the old Anderson
vile Prison, when he received notice that
he had been appointed one of the Secre-
taries of the celebrated Peace Commits,
sion, to make treaties with the Western
tribes. His knowledge of Indian life
made him very valuable to Gems Sher-
man, Terry, Harney, Sanborn and'others
in this important mission, and he now
has letters from Harney, Sherman, and
other officers, showing his valuable ser-
vices and honorable career on the 'front.'
Ter. We next find Rowland in Utah and
California, and then he spent five wears in
Old and New Mexico. In 1882 he again
studied in Paris under Armand Dumar,
esq, but the greater part of the last
twelve years he has lived the retired life
of an artist in Denver, and thousands
even of the new comers to Colorado know
not his thrilling experience in early days,
but only the gray-headed pioneers know
him as the old scout with The courage OF
lion and nerve like steel.
| Although good at hunting and scout
| ing scenes, Howland's genius is best
shown in painting the buffalo, and the
accompanying cuts represent two of his
| best pictures.
The "Frontier Inquest" is an interest
ing study, representing n dead Indian

CHICAGO.

Our trip to the Chicago republi>
can convention will be remembered
for a long time to come. We wit
messed things, that would have shock
ed the modesty Of the most profig
ate,especially by those who endeay
orei to force Mr.. Blaine on the con-
vention. We were invitedto confer
ence in the Grand Pacific Hotel, in
g room occupied by the managers
of Blaine. We found out, after a
few minutes talk, that it was only
necessary for contestant delega-
tion to declare for Blaine to assure
admission as delegate to the con-
ventien. The great scheme was to
make VIM. Walter Phelps the
prominent dark horse presidential
candidate, as breake was antici-
pated in the convention and in
such an event Mr.. Phelps was to
be nominated. Tickets were being
bought at any price and given to
parties to boom the man who was
to be the prominent dark horse
candidate.
We were told to send deleg ates
to room, al where a conference
was to be held aud delegates ques-
toned. We had a number to go
there, but put them ON their guard
and also to use them as witnesses
if it were necessary. 1t was any
thing to beat Senator Sherman
and although these men were advo.
eating Blaine, they were ambitious
themselves to become a candidate
for the presidency at the sacrifice
of Blaine. Every effort was made
to prejudice delegates against Sen
ator sherman. It was evident
that the Blaine men wanted no one
nominated who had too much love
for the negro, but were willing to
take negro delegates to advance
their own interests.
1t caused US to wonder, can men
be SO ungrateful to their fellow
man. Our advice is, let us have a
conference of our leaders before
we declare for anybody. Now is
the time for the negroes of this
country to sink or swim, live or die,
seryive or perish.

DAMAGING OUTGROWTH
OF PENSION LAWS.

That widows should receive
pension is an accepted fact and
worthy of commendation. The
fatherless and husbandless should
be provided for. The country
ows them protection. This view
of the case has no Objectionable
feature. But when pensions
encourage imm orality and vice by
placing structures upon marital
privileges they should be altered.
A man or woman should have the
same right of inheritance or of
income regardless of their possi-
bility in marriage. The mere
fact that pensioned woman
takes a husband should not be a
sufficient recompense for the loss
of her father or former husband.
The lettering of her condition
rests opon pensioned basis. The
selection of a husband should in
no way interfere with the rights
to receive pensions. So long as
the law remains, vice is encourag-

COLORED DEMOCRATS.

A great deal has been said
about cnlored men joining the
democratic party; that they are
fools. We are of the opinion
that in this age of enlightment
and civilization that colored
man can do as he pl' a:es. The
question among the colored voters
of this country is, will the repub
licans nominate a man better than
Mr.. Cleveland, if not they are
for Mr.. Cleveland Washington
Bee.

JOHN SHERMAN.

Rome had her Cicero, Greece
her Demosthenes and America
has the greatest living statesman
inIJohn Sherman of Ohio. No man
as more appreciated and honored
and when the managers of
James @. Blaine saw in
what esteem Mr.. Sherman was
held, by the American people,
every effort was made to defeat
his nomination. Mr.. Sherman
should have been nominated and
when it was about TO be accom-
plished the Blaine managers and
trickters commenced their work.
They disregarded every principle
of honor and decency, all kinds OF
tricks were resorted to, combina
tions upon combinations were form
ed to slaughter the man who is a
friend to humanity. 1t made
no difference how just contest
ants claim was, II he were not Tor
Blaire there was no show for his
admission as a delegate. The
Blaine managers on the national
committee went so far as to mis-
place the credentials of cartain
Maryland delegates who were for
Mr.. Sherman, and when the case
was brought up before the CON-
mittee on credentials, their cre-
dentisls could not be found. 1t
was the base work of the Blaine
managers that caused SO much
dissatisfaction in the convention,
and if Mr.. Blaine had been sincere
the letter he wrote on Monday
should have been written and sent
TO the convention on the day it
convened:
The whole thing was a trick, but

HARRISON AND MORTON

After the defeat of the Blaine
scheme"s at the Chicago Conven-
tion and their dirty treachey toward
Hon. John Sherman, Gen. Benja-
min Harrison, of Indiana, and
Hon. Levi P. Morton, of New
York, were nominated for presi-
dent and vice president resp ctive.
ly. This is the ticket a republican
convention has put before the
American people and ask that it
be elected. The nominees are good
men, but what we want to know
is, will these men when elected,
and especially Mr.. Harrison, have
constitutional authority to protect
the coiored man in his civil, and
political rights?
Will Mr.. Cleveland protect him
or has he attempted to protect
him? If not the negro should
adopt me means whereby his
rights shall be maintained. 1t Is
said that Mr.. Blaine's friends die
tated The nomination of HARRISON
and Morton; that he Blaine will
be the central figure in the nexI
administration should the republi
cans win We think not. Il
was Mr. Blaine's position, under
the Garfield administration, that
prevented his nomination at the
last republican convention and it
Is not natural that Mr.. Harrison
would embarass his administra-
ton with such a man as James @
Blaine. Notwithstanding Mr..
Blaine's attitude in the last con-
vention, how are we to be benefit
ed by supporting the republican OF
dem cratic ticket? So far a.
free trade and protection are cot
cerned, the negroes want pro!ec-
tion and things as free as possible
