Captain Boutelle, who is in command
of the United States troops stationed in
the Yellowstone Park, gives very graft
flying account Of the condition Of affairs
there. The Captain said that the forest
fires, which were formerly SO prevalent,
have been checked, and during the past
year no fires of any consequence have
broken out. He also said that not a
gun had been frcl during the year
with the confines of the park, and Ns
result the elk, deer, buffaloes, mountain
lions, bears, beavers and other wild
animals are increasing rapidly and be-.
coming quite tame. lie mentioned It
as q curious fact that the animals seemed
to know that they were safe in the
park. They seemed TO have no fear in
the presence Of man while in the park,
but If they happened to be outside of
the limits and man came in sight they
at once rau away. The herds Of buiTa-
loes, deer, etc, are increasing iu num-
Der, aud the fear that these animals will
become extinct, the Captain said, would
not be realized as long as the park con-
tinucd to be protected from the inroadS
" the hunters.

NAJoR-GENEgAL NELSON A. NILES
the war broke out, and on September Q, 1861
entered the volunteer service as Lieutenant
in the Twenty y-second Massachusetts Infau-
try. He was afterward commissioned Lieu
tenant-Colonel Of tho Sixty drst New Yor!:
Volunteers He was engaged in the ba ties
OF the Peninsula, before Richmond and at
Antietam, and after the latter battle was
made Colonel Of the regiment With the ex-
ceptlon OF the surrender OF Leo at Apo nat
tox Court House he was engaged in ali the
battles OF the Potomac and was wounded
three times. For gallantry at Charlottesville
he was brevetted Brigadier General OF VOL
urteers, and on May l2, 1854, was advanced.
70 the full rank for other gallant s.rvices
In August Of the same year he was brevetted
MaJor-General of Volunteers. On October
81, 1865, he was commissioned Major-Gen.
eral and mustered out the following Septen-
her, having Just received an appointment in
the regular army as Colonel OF tho Fcrtieth
Infantry.
In 1873, after being transferred to tht
Fifth Infantry, he defeated the cheyenne
Kiowa and Comanche Indians at Slater
Plains, and In 1873 subiugatei the Sioux and
other Indians in Montana, driving Sitting
Bull across the Canadian frontier, and break.
ing up the bands led by him. a third e--
plot of remarkable skill and success was his
defeat and capture Of the Nez Perce
band Of Chief Joseph just as the long
retreat OF that able warrior promised
to resuh In his escaps across tho north
ern border. In 1878 Coloucl Miles de-
feated and captured a band OF Bannoc.,s.
He was commissioned Bricadier-GenerGl Of
the United States Army on December 10,
1880 ard commanded for five years the De.
partment of Columbia. In July, 1885 he
was assigned to the command OF the Depart
ment Of the Missouri, and in April, 1885, was
transferred to Arizo at where be accom-
plished the surrender of the Apache scourgc,
Chief Geronimo. Various Western LeZislu-
lures passed votes of thanks to General
Miles Tor ridding the frontier OF this scourSc,
and the citizens of Arizona presented him
with a sword.
While already the third officer IN rank In
the army, General Miles in TIE ordinary
course Of events, will before many years be
the first, as General Howard retires in 1894,
leaving General Miles to succeed General
Schofleld as commander OF the army on the
latter's retirement in 1895. His career dur
ing the last thirty years has certainly been
most remarkable, carrying him, as It has,
through series OF brilliant and honorable
achievements from civil life up to his present
high rank.

The subject of the economical prepo'
ration OF several textile materials which
can be easily grown in the Southern
States iS iust now attracting much at.
tentiou. Some experiments have been
recently made by the Agricultural De.
partment with oHra fibre, which, the
New York Times says, shows that this
product may easily substitute the i'm
ported iutc if il can be produced
chcaply enough The whole difficulty is
in the want Of the requisite machinery.
The raw material is plentiful and cheap
enough, but its successful manufacture
has not yet becn achieved. The same
may be said OF the cotton stalk and Of

chanics shonld be able to circumvent the
difficulty il only their attention be drawn
to it.
