MADISON, Wis, Jan. 10.-The legis-

message to-day. and after transacting
little routine business of no importance
adjourned until Tuesday. The speaker
is alrea, near the verge of. distraction
in making out his committees, as about
every Republican in the house wants a
craftsmanship, and there are only a
comparatively small number for dis
tribution. Thus early ii. the session it
is apparent that there will be interest
ing goings on concerning the alleged
immoral dives in the northern woods.
Mrs. DR.. Bushnell, of New York, who
has become famous through her investi
cations of the matter, was in the city
yesterday, but Immediately decamped
until the solons become enough COM
posed to give attention to her pleadings.
She will urge the most stringent legis-

Mountain country

Jim Baker has secuted for Fremont and
Ex-Governor Gilpin, and was with them on
the ST. Vrain, July 4, 1S43, when Fremont's
old howitzer numbered the first salute ever
given the American flag in Colorado. He
was with Douiph on his famous march,
in the Mexican war, and one OF the hardest
fghUs he ever had was in this campaig
engaging a hostile band of Indians in the
Pan Handle Jim Baker was also a scout
with the veteran Gen. Harvey at Ash Hol-
low, when the Sioux were driven back af-
ter a ter ible battle. He was with Gen.
Johnstons command i'll That unfortunate
expedition, sent out bv the government
against the MormonS in 1857.
No living scout has a record like that of
Jim Baker, and but few of those dead ever
led so eventful a life. He is the last of that
old type If hunters that will live in the ro-
nance that always links itself with the
border-land between the civiliza-
ton and the home of the savage. There is
not a frontersman or mountaineer in ali
the west that has so characteristic face as
old Jim Baker.
As | stood watching the veteran hunter
and scout wondered not that some Denveg
school boys, in passing, should stop and look
up into his face wit an inouiring gia C.
Tley knew not who he was, but any strau-
ger would stop to look at old Jim Baker.
Not for any popularity in dress but for
his characteristic face and appearance. 1t
is truly wonderful face, one that you
might udy for hours and then find some
thing new aud attractive in it. His picture
is in the studio of every Denver artist. 1t
is the type for all their models, There S
none other like it. his bea is white aud
grizzled. The long wavy HAIR reaching
down on his shoulde is now am Ds5 silk n
white. When | first knew him there were
heavy streaks OF dark mingled with gray but
they are now nearly white. There are deep
wrinkles on the forehead and in the face
The eye, which in by gone years was uner-
ring IN the aim of the rife, Is now getting
dim, but still possesses much of the eagle
glance of half ce fury ago. Nature has

OF the American huuter that Tor 30 year,
has been blazing a trail for civilization
from tue Atlantic to the Pacihc.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1889-02-11

Jim Baker knew every phase of Indian
lif and was known to all the chiefs of the
great tribes. Ne xt to Kit Ca son he was
the crack rifle shot on the frontier, and
Carson often acknowledged that jim Baker
was his only rival in the use Of the rifle.
His last work as a scout wa during the Ute
outbreak, about ten years ago, when Father
Meeker was massacred. With plenty in his
old age, he lives on his ranch on Snake
river near the northern Colorado boundary
line, occasionally hunting and fishing and
following his favorlte sport of trapping the
beaver, and about once q year he comes
to Denver, hunts up some of the pioneers,
talks over "reminiscences of the early days,
and then returns TO his mountain home.
On one of these periodic visits 10 Denver
Jim Baker for the first time saw a street
car. To him it was remarkable invention
to See 1.-The stage-like thing" pulled along on
a track. He was SO delighted that he spent
the entire day riding to the end Of the
track and back on the various lines. A
ide like that for a nickel, seemed like a
very small fare. Visiting Beaver at still a
later period, he thought he would take
another ride on the street cars. He was
not up with the times and was greatly
alarmed on seeing the car running along
without horses attached to it. Rushing to
the rear, he jumped as if for his life and fell
sprawling in the street. 1t was an electric
car, and old Jim Baker could not under
stand. Skeptical in his views Of the here
after, and like the old-time hunter he is In
clined somewhat to the Indian idea of the
Great Mantou. In speaking to friend af-
terward about the electric car incident he
said "he didn't know whether there was
God or not, but thought there might be one"
The following incident, one of hundreds
that could be told of this famous scout, well
illustrates his nerve and daring. He and
another hunter once when crossing the
mountains came upon two young grizzly
BEARS II think we can get away
with the varmints with our hunting knives"
said Baker to his friend. The bears were
sure game with their rifles, but this was no
sport for these two frontiersmen, and
SO they each singled out a grizzly, I'M
sheatued their knives and started for bruin.
1t was harder task than they thought, for
the grizzlies, though not quite grown, were
strong and made the fight long and dan
gerous.

FIFTY YEARS a SCOUT.
Old Jim Baker and His Thrilling Ad-
rnirera.

Copyright 1897
DENVER Col. Feb. 9.-Recently old Jim
Baker. the far-famed scout, hunter, trap
per and guide, visited Denver. Now about
80 years Of age, he is the oldest scout in the
west, having lived over half a century on
the frontier. With a constitution thai
slowly yields to the burden of four score
years, he is quite hale and vigorous, buJ
time is doing its work. and old Jim Baker
has changed more rapidly during the past
two years. When i saw, him not long
since in this city be presented decidedly a
broken appearance. Dressed in a dark sui;
and blue flannel shirt, and wearing a white
sombrero. be was standing on a street cor
ner talking with some fifty miners of the
days Of the great Pixies Peak excitement.
But it was long before that time that Jim
Baker came to the tRel- wilderness OF the
Rocky mountains. 1t was about 1886 that
he started out from the little hamlet of In
dependence, Missouri, now suburb of
Kansas City, which was not laid off until
fifteen years later. For fifty-two years
Jim Baker has led an eventful life on the
frontier. Contemporary with Kit Carson
and the famous scouts of that period, he
came before Fremont and Gilpin, Harvey
and Kearney, and will ever be a historic fig
ure in the early settlement of the Rocky
Mountain country,

Bakers grizzly almost had him in his iron
grasp once, but with quick turn of his
knife Baker cut into the stomach of his an
tagonist. Then turning about to see bow
his companion had come out of the fight,
Baker made the discovery that his friend
had fed, and a second grizzly bear was
closing upon HIM. Baker was tired
out by the first encounter, and now
he was compelled to meet another. aud there
was no time to get his rife. 1t was ter
rible struggle, hut Baker was fighting for
his life this time and not for sport. 1t was
sometime before he killed the bear, weak
ened as he had been in the first contest. A
hunter who could kill two grizzly bears with
a hunting knife, one Immediately after the
other, must have been a man OF terrible
strength and iron nerve.
The growth Of the west seems almost like
a dream to old Jim Baker. When ne started
for the Rocky mountains there we're but
few eope il the Mississippi country,
for st. Louis then had only few thous nd
inha bltants. New empires and common
wealths have sprdng up since then, and ne
has lived to see it all. Nov l., 100000 peo-
pie live west # the Mississippi river. A
new civilization has come, and the railroads
now climb the mountains where he used to
blaze the trail. Old Jim Bakers work is
done; his mission is over, but ne viii live in
history, not only for his great work in help
ing to open the way for this new civiiza ion
but for his nobility of character and worthy
deeds without number. WheA | see Jim

picture the novelist draws Of the death
scene Of the old trapper amoag the Paw. ees
of the Loup. Life wasted away as a candle
fickers out. So l have thought old Jim
Baker would pass away, for old age, and
not disease, is slowly weakening the once
vigorous aad iron fra ne of this famous
hunter and scout. His burden of years is
heavy, and soon he will cross that unkno Wn
