The deed was committed without

was informed that he must pay for his
board in the future, arose in the

who had befriended him. Hadcs

Biographical sketch Of Our New FIX
ecutive.

| '-'N''AsSN ~ AOoiNaSho AAoiii
son for Governor of Idaho, was born
in kittanning, Armstrong county,
Penn, June 18th, 1886, and removed
with his fathers family to Illinois,
juno I'd, 1852, and settled near
Galesburg upon farm where he re-
NAMED engaged in farming and stock
raising until the fall of 1853 when he
started for Pixies Peak, by which
name the mineral region of Colorado
was then known. He remained there
engaged in mining and merchandise
ing until the breaking out of the civil
war in 1861.
He then entered the service in
Captain Baxter's company of indie
pendent Scouts of Colorado, and was
given a commission of Second Lieu
tenant in the fall of 1861. During
the autumn and winter of 1862 this
company wus actively engaged in the
Indian country situated upon the
Arkansas and Platte rivers and their
tributaries. In April, 1852, the
company was ordered to Fort Union,
New Mexico, and the subject of this
sketch was put in command of the
artillery at the fort, where he re-
manned until regular artillery officers
could be sent from the States.
He was then put in command of
his company and again sent into the
field on scouting duty. While thus
engaged he followed band of In
dams who had plundered four trains
of merchandise, at or near the
Cimarron river, nearly 500 miles into
the Indian country near the boundar-
les of Texas and Indian Territory,
where he surprised band of Conan
ches more than ten times larger than
his own command and recovered
large portion Of the animals belong
ing to the plundered trains. Lieut..
Shoup's action in this and another
matter, is we'll described in the fol-
lowing General Orders issued by the
District Commander:

On the Goth of August, 1862, I'd
Lieutenant G. l.. Shoup, of Co. G, I'd
Colorado Volunteers, was detached
from Fort Union, New Mexico, with
forty five men of that company, to
overtake and chastise the Indians for
robbing a train on the Cimmarron
route OF over ono hundred mules and
horses, and to recover the animals.
He was gone on this service forty-one
days, twenty days of which time his
men were on half rations. He went
into the heart of the Comanche and
kiowa country and forced the Indi-
ans to give up ninety-two of the sto-
len animals, and to promise not again
to depre late upon our trains. Lieut..
Shoup marched several hundred miles
while on this duty.
In the month of November, 1862,
Lieut.. Shoup pursued party of men
on their way to Fort Smith, Arkan-
sas, and captured them three hundred
and fifty miles out on the plains east
Of the settlements of New Mexico.
and i'll the heart of the Comanche
country.
The zeal, energy, perseverance and
self-denial shown by this young gen
tleman, and by Sergeant Marvin and
Corporal Allen of Co. G, I'd Colorado
Volunteers, aud the other resolute
men of that Company, deserve this
public notice, and are worthy the en-
ulation of every officer and soldier in
this Department.

of the three great commanders Of the Civil

the value of an important historical produc-

personal incidents, and the wonderful story
which it tells holds tho reader spell-b bound.

Editor Dana's Garden.

A writer in Garden and Forest pic
lures Charles A. Dana's country home
as one of the paradises of the new world.
1t is on beautiful 45 acre island called
Dosoris, lying in the Sound, near the
north shore of Long Island.
Sixteen years ago, soon after he had
brought The New York Sun to state of
prosperity, Mr.. Dana bought Dosoris
and began to make it the ideal country
home. The whole island is occupied by
the house, lawn and gardens. Mr.. Dana
has an especial love for trees, "our
brothers of the field" as the poet puts
it. His trees and shrubs constitute one
of the most complete private collections
in the world. They are grouped in such
a way as to show to best advantage the
noble vistas of semi-marine landscape
that meet the eye in the outlook from
Dosoris.
A sea wall surrounds the island. Even
it is covered with vines. Along the high
tide mark, growing in the white sand,
are locust and red cedar trees, verdure
thus creeping to the waters edge. Among
the trees are twenty-nine varieties Of
oak and thirty-nine naples. There are
thirty-eight varieties of pines and twen-
ty-three of frs. All the continents have
been ransacked to contribute hardy trees.
In the fruit garden there are; 400 pear
trees and sixty varieties of grape. Among
ever blooming Bourbon, Mrs. Degraw,
is Mr.. Dana's favorite. The collection
of orchids is very great. ALI these grow
ing things are kept in the best condition.
The home is perfectly appointed. Here
the editor of The Sun gains the youth
which he seems to keep eternally.

Distinguished Tourists.

Notable in the history of industries is
the sailing of the shipload of American
working people to the Paris exposition
and Europe. The time has come when
mechanics and sewing women can have
their summer trip to Europe like the
millionaires. They owe this trip to the
Scripps Newspaper league. Great Brit
ain, at government expense, sent num-
Der of working people to study the indus
trial arts represented in the Paris exposi-
ton. Private enterprise sends the same
kind of party from the United States
much better way. The perfect civiliza-
tion will be reached when, out of their
own savings, mechanics can take an
outing over seas.
More than fifty trades are represented
in the intelligent and good looking peo-
pie who by this time have reached for
eign shores They go especially to in
vestigate the manual trades of Europe,
and to get hints for self improvement.
We may expect the effect OH our own
industries will be apparent, for in pains
taking care and thoroughness as well as
artistic finish European workmen are
frequently superior to those of America.
Four women are of the representative
Americans who sailed on the City Of
Rome. One is Leonora Barry, the earn
est. eloquent organizer of the Knights OF
Labor The other ladies are cloak
maker. q dress maker, and a young lady
who understands every branch Of to-
bacco manufacture. Members Of all the
party will examine their own particular
trades in Europe.
Julian Hawthorne and other able writ.
ers are along as correspondents. There
are also an artist and photographer.
Among points Of interest visited will be
the great Krupp gun works at Essen,
Germany; the ship building yards on the
Clyde, at Glasgow, and the cutlery man
ufactories at Sheffield. Undoubtedly,
too. they will study long and well some
of the exquisite china and porcelain in
dustries. There will not be among all
the European tourists. hisgupamer a bet
ter looking, more intelligent body Of
people than these representative work
sngmen and women Rom the United
States. The best wishes of the whole
rountry are with them.

Japan has been for generation the
favorite field for Christian missionary
operations. Yet it now presents the
strange spectacle of an American, Henry
s. Olcott, travelling through its length
and breadth, preaching to the people
that their salvation and their hope is in
holding fast to Buddhism. He tells
them their own religion, purified and re-
formed, is best for them. Strangely
enough, Mr.. Olcott is creating excite
ment and wild enthusiasm. His audi
ences number sometimes 1900 persons.
He speaks his sermons in English, and
they are translated by an interpreter,
sentence by sentence, to the Japanese.
