Interesting BIT Of History

Hon. G. M. Shannon writes the Repub-
lican of Phoenix, Arizona, bit of early
history in which he says:
Gen. John R. Baylor, now living at
Uvalde, Texas, an own cousin of my
mother, was governor of Arizona by ap-
pointment from the Confederate govern
ment. Formerly the line between Arizona
and New Mexico ran east and west, and
while Baylor was governor the seat of
government was at Mesilla, now an al
most deserted town on the Rio Grande, in
Dona Ana county, New Mexico. General
Baylor, while governor, captured and
destroyed Fort Fillmore, on the Rio
Grande, below Mesilla; took part in. the
battles of Val Verde and Pigeon Ranch,
N. NJ, conducting the latter, and made
aggressive war on the Apaches. This war
was carried to such an extent that it
brought about his removal. He sent an
OK train of poisoned flour to Cooks can
yon and abandoned it, that the Apaches
might get it, and they did. For this act
Jefferson Davis demanded his reslgna-
ton. After this he returned to his home
in Texas and was elected member of tn
Confederate congress.
General Baylor participated, as a boy,
in the Texas war of independence; origi-
mated the idea of the Texas "rangers" for
the defense of settlers against Indians
and the protection of the frontier; helped
to organize the ranger" forces and led
them in many battles against border
ruf1ians and marauding Indians.

ALLEGED POISONING,
A Spanish Doctor in the Taos County
Jail-A Warming Against the
Laxity Of Enforcing the
Medical Law.

A peripatetic medicine man, who goes
by the high sounding Castillian title of
DR.. Carl Los, and who claims to be a
Spanish physician, is in the Jail at Taos,
on the charge of poisoning an old woman
near Ojo Caliente. The woman was
taken ill few days ago and this "docter"
was called to attend her. She died shortly
after taking his medicine and under such
circumstances as to lead to the belief that
she was poisoned. Carl Los was promptly
arrested and held for trial at the coming
term of the district court. Commenting
on this case the Taos Herald says
"This would be good case for our ter
ritorial medical board to take hand in,
as unlicensed doctors are getting too
plentiful in our county. Only one regis
tered license to practice in this, county
of 10000 people, is to be found in its
place on the clerks docket, and no man,
be he graduated even, has right to ad-
minister potion or obey call, until he
has placed himself on the record of the
county. This law is made for the peo-
ple's protection, and he is not good
citizen who breaks it,"

Evils which Ought to be Remedied.

To The Iowa County Democrat
Many of the younger boys of this
vicinity seemingly do not know that
the law provides fines for killing birds
or robbing their nests. Many boys
from twelve to eighteen years of age
possess "siing Shots" and unfortu-
nately become expert marksmen. and
kill the birds that venture near
enough them. The writer knows of
several boys who proudly boast OF
having killed from twenty-five to thir-
ty birds this season. They not only
kill the birds, but plunder their nests.
Some claim that they have collected
as many as one hundred egsg from
nests built in this city.
Why will the owners of driving
horses take advantage of the fact that
there is no humane society in this Sec
tion and so cruelty abuse their horses
by cruelty over checking them? 1t
really destroys that lively look which
they possess, and shortens their lives;
not to speak of the misery which it
inflicts upon the faithful animal. Some
measues should be Immediately taken
to cause different treatment of the
poor dumb animals which are subject
ed to such cruelty.

Fish or Stone.
/ odgeville Chronicle,

/ odgeville Chronicle.
A question has been sprung in the
Wisconsin exhibit at the Worlds Fair,
as to whether the Pecatonica pearls
are fish or mineral. John S. Savage
one of the Wisconsin commissioners
proceeded to arrange the pearls among
the mineral exhibits, when he was
served with notice from headquart-
ers to take them out and place them
among the fish collection.
According to this decision the pearl
is fish Notwithstanding it is stone.
1t certainly is not drybone, for it
comes out of the water; it Is not
blackjack, for it is white; it is not
iron, for you could MT make horse
shoe out Of it; it is neither gold nor
silver, for it is harder and more val
liable than either of them, so it must
be a fish. If the worlds fair director
should happen to find milk pail and
a three-legged stool in the stomach of
a cow, he would order them placed
in the dairy exhibit.
