The Scouts I'm Yellowstone Park Make
an Important Arrest.

The Scouts I'm Yellowstone Park Make
an Important Arrest.
The Secretary of the Interior has received
letter from Capt. George S. Anderson
acting superintendent OF the Yellowstone
National Park, dated Mammoth Hot
Springs. Wyoming. regarding an important
arrest made by the scouts connected with
the park. 1t appears that some weeks ago
one of the snowshoe parties got on the trail
Of a man with a sled on Astringent creek
near Pelican. The trail was old when dis
covered. and in consequence II was not
followed. About the same time a man, as
certained to be Ed. Howell Of Cook City,
known to be a poacher, passed the station
at night. On the 9th instant q party con-
sisting Of Capt. Scott, Lieut.. Forsyth and
Scout Burgess, two sergcants and Haynes,
the park photographer, started out in
search OF the poachers. On the 18th instant
the party arrived at Fern lake in terrific
snow storm. On the following morning the
party discovered near it's camp a cache of
six buffalo scalps and skulls. three good
skins and three more from which the hair
had been partially taken of, and being
made into rawhide. The trail was then
lost, but Burgess kept on, and about noon
of that day ran into fresh one, which
was followed to a lodge erected near the
mouth of Astringent creek. While there
he heard shots, and soon saw the culprit
down In the middle of the Pelican valley
Capt. Anderson says that Burgess per
formed an act of bravery that deserves
special recognition. The poacher was un-
doubtedly armed with a repeating rifle, II
was equally certain that he was a des-
perate character and would resist arrest
even to the point of taking life The only
arm carried by Burgess and the sergeant
was single army revolver. The poacher
was So occupied in skinning his buffalo
that he did not see Burgess until he was
within nfteen or twenty feet of him. He
then started for his rifle but on an order
from burgess stopped and surrendered
Near him were the carcasses of five
buffaloes, freshly killed. The prisoner
proved to be Ed. Howell, the last of the
three desperate poachers to fall a victim
TO the scouts Of the park. There are no
laws providing for the prosecution of
poachers In the Yellowstone Park and
Capt. Anderson believes that this arrest
can be made the occasion for a direct an
pea TO Congress for the passage of an act
making II an offense triable before the
u ;. court IN Wyoming, for any one to
Kill. capture or injure any wild animals in
the park. Several bills are now pending be-
rcre congress providing for the enactment
OF law TO punish persons illegally killing
game in the park. The Secretary of the
interior called attention to this matter in
MS last annual report and has personally
appealed 20 Senators. 1t is believed that
senator Faulkner. the chairman of the
committee on territories will call nm this
Dill on Thursday, March %, and ask the
Senate to pass 1t.

The Growing of n souI.

Hear We this parable. A man
Did plant a garden. Vine and tree
Alike in course of time. began
To put forth fair and pleasantly.
The rains OF heaven. the persuading sun
Came down alike on each and every one.
Yet some trees willful grew, and some
Strong vines grew gayly in the sun,
With gaudy leaves, that ever came
To naUght. And yet each Haunting one
Did flourish on triumphantly and glow
Like sunset clouds in all their moving show.
But lOi The harvest found them not.
The soul had persisted from them. Mold
And muck and leaf lay there to rot,
And furnish nourishment untold
To patient tree and lowly creeping vine
That grew as grew the husbandman's de-
sign.
Hear then this lesson; hear and heed:
/ say that chaff shall perish; say
Mans soul Is like unto a seed
To grow unto the Judgment Day.
1t grows and grows If he will have II grow;
II perishes if he must have it so.

1t is built of fire-proof pressed brick, with
carved trimmings Of light Bedford stone;
the roof is of red tiles. 1t is entered from
both Fifty-seventh and Fffty-eighth streets,
but the main entrance is on Fifty-seventh
street. The principal door opens through a
great arch into a hall of Caen stone, 4Ox5O
feet, with a ceiling 80 feet high. On the
right is the library, 25xS5 feet, with a vast,
low bow window commanding a view Of
Fifth avenue, and a small salon, 35x2O, fin
ished in the style of Louis XVI. The
grand salon on the other side is 50X35 feet,
and is finished in Louis QuinZe style. Adj
joining this is a water colSr room, which
connects by a staircase of Caen stone with
the reception rooms. Back of the main hall
is the vast ball room, where Miss Wander
bilt is to make her debut. The ceiling of
this room is 35 feet high, and the room is
65x5O. Next the ball room is a Moorish
smoking room copied from tho Alhambra,
and next this IS the dining room. 30x40.
Of the vast sum of money lavished on this
edihce some idea may be formed from the
splendcr of details. The main hall entrance
is two bronze doors, which were cast in Italy
and cost 500, fU0: they are cCv5req with bAa-

main staircase Of priceless African marble.
On either side Of the bottom step stands a
vase which has been appraised at 100000.
The reception rooms are TO be furnished in
rosewood and mother-Of-pearl; the furni-
ture Will cost, it is said, half a million.
The decorations of the ball room are to
cost $200,00. There are one hundred rooms

When love goes by. what can a woman do?
Is there no prayer to pray, no suit to sue2
Though he be fed beyond the wintry sea,
Will not his Grant steps come back to me?
Will he not answer TO my hearts low cry?
Though he goes by?
Nay, sweet, upon thy yearning lips
The seal of silence. Reach no asking hand
To love once flown. Go on thy lonely ways;
Turn thee a face OF smiles to the worlds

Or else sink down upon life's thorns and die
When love goes by.
