american buffalo and bison have ~.

tincf that the general public has
como TO accept It as a fact, and believe
that the only specimens are those
which have become domestfcated ANA
are carefully housed and cared for IA
the several geological gardens and
parks.
That there are few Of them remain
ing on the plains is certainly true. but
there are enough, with proper protec-
Ion, 70 soon produce large herds. In
THIS state, where once there were
thousands Of these animals. their
number has been rapidly reduced by
hunters, who have slain them simplv
lor the momentary pleasure they have
experienced in killing large game,
until they now number less than fifty
and are In four small herds. These are
confined to the rougher and moro
sparsely populated districts, their hab-
itattons being more effective protec-
ton to them than all the State game
laws ever enacted by the, General
Assembly.
80 small had grown the number of
these distinctiveIy American animals
that In 1889 the State Legislature en-
acted law providing a severe penal
~ Tor the killing Of a single specimen
before the year 1900, thus allowing a
full ten years for them to propagate,
but In spite OF this enactment word
was received but short time ago that
some one In the Kenosha range had
shot five buffalo. State Game War
den Land started at once to make q
special and personal investigation OF
the case. While out he has also made
an extensive visit through the State,
and he has just returned with an in
teresting account. He is somewhat
discouraged with many things con.
nected with the enforcement, or,
more properly, the non-enforcenent
Of all the game laws, and predicts
that unless something very decisive
Is done, and that very soon, the buffa-
10 will not be the only family wiped
from the face Of the earth. He re-
ports most terrible slaughter Of all
game during the last few months. He
was asked last night In reference to
the killing Of buffalo.
There are now very few Of them"
he stated, "and these. In our feeble
and crippled condition we are en-
deavoring to protect. That Ave Of
them were killed recently is a fact,
but found that could not convict
the guilty II we brought him to trial.
He admitted having killed five Of
them and boasted Of the fact to his
friends, but we could find no one,
after a careful investigation, who
would testify against him, and II he
were arraigned he would, Of course,
say not guilty"
81 Judge that we have now in the
State something less than fifty
buffalo, and these are In four punches.
One Of these has recently been seen
In Middle Park, and numbers but
five. Another, and possibly the larg-
est, is In Kenosha range, and num-
bers possible twenty. The third, Of
ten or fifteen head, Is at Hahn's
Peak, In Routt County. The fourth,
and the smallest except that at Mid
die Park, Is at Dolores. Denver Re-

Big Potatoes.

Some wonderful results with regard TO
potato culture have been obtained by Q
gentleman- farmer In France. The farmer,
who 10 also Q distinguished chemist, has
been, according TO . recent Consular re-
Fort from Nantes, for some time past
conducting experiments with potatoes,
with the remarkable result that he has
succeeded In securing the enormous re-
turn OF a tons per acre. The plan be
adopts 10 TO carefully select the seed and
use only the best and soundest tubers.
The ground IL dug or plowed to great
depth and 10 we'll MANFRED. Before plant
ing the seed potatoes they are soaked for
about twenty-four hours In q mixture
composed of saltpetre and suiphate Of
ammonia, ak pounds Of each salt to
twenty Ave gallons OF water. After this
soaking the tubers are allowed to drain,
and they then stand for twenty four
hours longer, In order that the germs
aay have time TO swell. - Chambers

charaster From the Face.

According to the latest physiog-
nomists, II the breadth Of the face Is
greater than two thirds its length,
there will be too much vigor and en-
ergy, and too little intellectual re-
straint. A line drawn across tho face
from the corners OF the eye should
divide the face into two equal halves.
In this case the intellectual and moral
control largely the executive forces.
When the upper half Is less than the
lower, the want Of character" will be
very manifest

The Color 81 Saol.l.

Most people suppose, says an as
sayer, that all gold Is alike when re-
lined, but this Il not the case. An ex-
perienced man can tell at q glance from
what part Of the world gold piece
comes, and In some cases from what
part Of a particular gold district the
metal was obtained. The Australian
gold. for instance. Is distinctly redder
than the California, and this differ
ence In color Is always perceptible,
even when the gold Is 1000 fine.
Again, the gold obtained from the
placers is yellower than that which il
taken directly from quartz.
Few people know the real color Of
gold, as 1t IL seldom seen unless
heavily alloyed. which renders 1t red
DER than whom pure. The purest coins
ever made were the $50 pieces that
used to be common In California.
