ROBBING OUR FORESTS.
Reservation Piutes Who Slaughter De,
for Their Hides.


for Their Hides.
A gentleman who spends several weeks
every summer in the Sierra Nevada range,
informs the RECORD UNION that late in the
season large bands of Piute Indians leave
their reservation and cross the boundary
line into California, where they slaughter
deer by the wholesale for their hides
He says the mountaipeers assure him
that they have seen band of these sage
brush pirates surround thicket of timber
and brush and then set fire to il, causing
the deer to come out in droves, when they
are shot down and skinned. their carcasses
generally being left to rot on the ground.
II is well-known fact that few white
men employ these redskins to hunt the
deer for their hides, paying them gener-
ally in rifles and ammunition. II would
be well. in view of this fact, if our Con.
gressmen would request the Interior De.
psrtment to see that the Indian Agents in
Nevada keep their wards on the reserva-
tons. or at least not permit them TO cross
the State line to Stay game on the Califor-
MIA side. As many as four hundred In.
disns have been known to cross the sum.

NOTES AND INCIDENTS.
Brief Mention of the Lesser Events
Yesterdays Celebration.

Brief Mention of the Lesser Events of
Yesterdays Celebration.
One of the most novel and attractive
features of the parade was the miniature
hook and ladder truck, in the firemen's
section, drawn by span of goats and
manned by two little boys. 1t delighted
the little folks immensely, and pleased
everybody.
The categorical cars and floats in the pro-
cession were, as usual, the work of George
Boyne, the decorator, and were credit to
that experienced and skillful decorative
artist.
Many overhead wires came to grief yes
terday. One of the business floats was so
high that it came in collision with several
wires and broke them down.
The street decorations were, as whole,
quite creditable. Some business houses
were deliberately ornamented with the ma
tional colors, and few of the private resi-
dence decorations were also striking. Some
of the more noticeable of the downtown
displays were those of Whittier, Fuller e.
Co, the Western Hotel, Weinstock, Lubin
& Co. and Hale Bros. & Co.
The Stars and Stripes were raised ON the
st. Joseph Academy yesterday under the
shadow of the cross.
Almost every Chinamap who was unfor-
tunate enough to appear on ] or K streets
yesterday was kept in perpetual torments
by the small boys. The poor heathens saw
redheads and bombs being thrown at them
from all directions.
Somebody occupying apartments on the
north side of K street, between Fourth and
Fifth, had the poor taste yesterday to dis
play two small British flags. The parties
are new arrivals from England, it is said,
and possibly they thought they were dis
playing commendable zeal in celebrating
the American national anniversary in that
way. Later in the day American flags
were placed above the others, probably az
the suggestion of someperson to the manor
born.
During the fireworks at Capitol Park last
night, small boy was injured in the face
by the descending stick from rocket. 1t
struck him just below one of his eyes and
inflicted painful wound.
The Art Gallery was open yesterday from
l o'clock P. NJ. till 4:30, and several hundred
visitors to the city availed themselves of
the opportunity to visit it.
Quite number of Indian bucks, squaws
and papooses from Nevada were in town
yesterday, taking in the parade and exer.
cises.
Mrs. W. G. Manley, CT Walsh's Station,
while witnessing the fireworks, was struck
on the head and back by descending sticks.
The wound on the top of her head is quite
severe one. After being struck she fell
to the ground and her husband and others
thought she was dead. Medical aid was
summoned and she was taken to the resi-.
dence of her mother-in-law. The wound
was dressed and she was resting easy at
later hour.
A little girl was also injured at the Cap
itol grounds while Witnessing the fire.
works display. Her name could not be
ascertained.
There was great throng of visitors in
the city from neighboring towns an dlocal-
ities. All the morning trains were well
filled with people coming here to spend
the Fourth.

crowd we're unanimous in the opinion that
tine aerial fireworks are by far the most
pleasing and attractive.
The display commenced shortly after 8
o'clock, and for one hour and half there
was a constant ascending and breaking of
rockets, bombs and various colored stars.
The park was one vivid illumination.
the immense Capitol building showing out
at times almost as plainly as at midday.
The rockets were thrown higher into the
air than on any similar occasion, and the
regularity and promptness with which
they were sent up was one of the main
points which made the display a success.
There were no tiresome intermissions,
but such a constant fusilade of beautiful
pyrotechnical devices in upper air that to
see them all one had to gaze upward
almost continually. At times showers of
them were discharged, completely filling
the air, and the bursting of these discharges
was at once brilliant and imposing. The
committee in charge are entitled to high
credit for their management and the pyro-
technists for their skill and faithful per-
fOrmance

A flock of cranes made a diversion in
Georgia. There were probably not more
than hundred of the lank fowls in the
flock, and quite number of the citizens
watched them for nearly an hour as they
scared through the air high above the
city. They were as perfectly drilled as
the average military company, and there
was not hitch or bobble in their move
ments. They seemed to be governed by
the movements Of leader, and in every
wheel or turn there was not the slightest
break.

the books. Says Librarian Arthur Mason

SAN FRANCISCO. July 4th.-In the after
noon game in this city the Oaklands won
again by a score of 10 to Z. There was the
same trouble-the home team couldn't hit
when its men were on the bases. Looka-
baugh was batted hard and often. In the
second inning a decision by Donohue
against the San Franchises, which was
erroneous, allowed the Colonies to make
three runs. Sweeney played poor at first,
but Shea, Ebright and Stevens put up great
ball, also Mcdonald and Meegan. Score

be made by the visitors, while Eeitz was
touched up for four singles, which, with
two sacrifices, gave the home team three

A Biz Pan Of cold.

has given the following account Of the
largest pan Of gold ever taken out of the
old Cape claim; "ln the first part OF
the month of October, 1857, II. b. La
throp, now dead, and myself took out of
this very same Cape claim pan of gold
containing 104 ounces and tour penny
weights OF pure, clean metal that sold for
over $4,000 We found the shining stuff in
the middle Of the river bed under large
bowlder. Il was some distance above
bedrock, and we did very little strip
ping of the surface dirt before finding it.
The gold was in small pieces, the largest
of which was not worth more than twenty
five cents-it was all fine scale gold.
When We found it it had settled in n
orevice of the rock, where it had washed

Too much nitrogonons or stable ma
nures are the common cause of excessive
growth Of straw. II can be remedied by
applying wood ashes or potash in any
form in considerable quantities. How
the mineral effects this has been vari.
ously explained. It is known that pot
ash has the power Of dissolving sand,
and it is probable that, by making sand
soluble, and taking it up into the circula-
tion, it checks the flow of sap, besides
giving the straw the gritty charac-
ter that so quickly dulls delicate
knives used in cutting it. Grain of any
kind that has been fertilized with min
erals is much less likely to rust than that
manured with fertilizers mainly carbon
aceous Rich stable manure, will, how
ever, often make a bright straw and
plump grain, while that which is mainly
or made from straw, will
make weak straw and shrunken grain.
The explanation is that the rich manure
helps to make soluble potash in the soil,
while the poor manure has not this
power. Hence dressing of manure
from grain-fed horses may have the
effect of dressing of potash, though not
directly supplying any of the mineral,
but only liberating what was already in
the soil in insoluble condition. .-Ameri-

Chameleons.

Chameleons Of one species or another
can generally be seen in the reptile house
at the Zoo, it being rare event for the
society to be without one--at the present
time they have no less than eight. But
they attract but little attention from visi-
tors, and indeed are not very interesting
looking animals, as they sit stolidly on
the plants provided fer them in their
cases, generally without moving They
cannot be kept constantly supplied with
insects for food, and, speaking from a
somewhat intimate knowledge of the
habits of these animals in confinement,
there is nothing in the world will induce
a chameleon to take even the slightest APP
parent interest in its surroundings unless
it be the sight of what it considers a
toothsome insect. Nevertheless, they are
by no means uninteresting animals, and
when allowed to wander at largo and
forage for themselves in a greenhouse
they are constant source of amusement.
The chameleon's method OF taking its prey
is very curious, being effected by shooting
out an enormously long worm-like tongue,
the end Of which is clubbed and covered
with viscid secretion, TO which the in-
sects stick and are thus drawn into its
mouth. The actual projection of the
tongue is made with marvellous rapidity,
but before striking the animal very
slowly opens its mouth, with all the ap-
pearance of taking most deliberate aim.
Its eyes are most noticeable; they are
very large, but, with the exception of an
extremely small opening in the centre,
are covered with skin; they are also en-
tirely independent of each other, with
the result that occasionally the creature is
looking forward over its nose with one
eye, while with the other it is intently
watching something directly behind it.
And, finally, its far famed power of
changing color-which is also enjoyed
by other lizards--is perhaps the most
noticeable of the creatures many pc
culiarities. 1t is "partly dependent on
the degree in which the lungs are filed
with air and different layers of chromato-
phores (cells in the skin in which the
coloring pigment is deposited) are pressed
toward the outer surface of the skin. :"
1t appears to be produced partly at the
will of the animal and partly by an sim
voluntary habit which enables its tints
to correspond with the natural sub
stances on which it is placed. ."-Satur-
