EMBASSADOR Ii HUNG CHANG.
ARRIVES BY SPECIAL TRAIN AT
VANCOUVER, B. &.
Welcomed by a Large COncourse OF
People and With Plenty of
Chinese Music.

VANCOUVER (B. c., Sept. 13.-At
II o'clock this morning Lii Hung Chang,
the touring special ambassador, arrived
at Vancouver by special train In ms
private car, the Che Foo. The whole
city was on the qui vive to do him honor,
and long before the hour set for his ar
rival crowds lined the approaches to
the depot and wharf and masses OF peo-
ple crowded all the eminences around
the harbor.
The Chinese residents had erected
handsome arch on the bridge leading to
the wharf, and a long line Of Cinnamon
stood in line waiting to bow to the great
Viceroy. A Chinese band, that sounded
like bagpipes, played Chinese music as
Earl Ii alighted from the train. A car
riage drawn by four white horses and
draped with union jacks waited to con-
vey him the short distance from the
train to the steamship. When the pro-
cession started the coach was preceded
by Lis famous scarlet chair, carried
empty by four men, and several bands.
A division of marines from the warshlps
in the harbor fell into line behind the
Viceroy followed by long deputatlon
of Cinnamon in their picturesque robes.
The great Viceroy seemed delighted
with the homage of his countrymen,
who fell on one knee and raised clasped
hands to him as he passed smilingly by.
His shrewd, kind face beamed, his yell
low jacket made the brightest spot or
the sunless day, and his cherished pea
cock feather was displayed falling from
the back of his cap. The gang-plank Of
the steamship Empress of China was
carpeted with scarlet, the ropes were
wound with yellow and draped with
flags. AS he was carried UP the plank
in his scarlet chair the Chinese dragon
flag was run up the mainmast, and a
salute of nine guns was fired from II.
Nj. S. ComuS. The absence of cheering
was noticeable, and gave an Oriental
solemnity to the scene. All the ships in
the harbor were gaily decorated with
rainbows of bunting, and many of the
roofs around displayed kodiak fiends
blackly outlined with their instruments
against the pallid sky.
Many prominent citizens had cards of
admission to the steamship, and crowd
ed her decks to catch a glimpse of the
Earl as he was carried aboard. For
the day the whole social order was sub
verted, and Cinnamon everywhere took
precedence over their white brothers in
the good-natured throng.
Almost Immediately on reaching the
steamship Ii Hung Chang greeted an
audience of Chinese in the saloon, and
listened to an address read from scar
let paper.
Ii Hung Chang was delighted with his
transcontinental trip.
The Empress of China will sail to-
morrow afternoon at o'clock, and Ii
Hung Chang will spend the intervening
time on board. Tomorrow he will re-
ceive various delegations on board ship.

yarn that might stand repeating for Its novelty,
but not for Its credlbilty.
But this actually occurred In the fall Of 1885
In the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. We were
hunting the blacktail deer. As is we'll known
to all who have pursued this willy animal, they
have no regular runs, like the Virginia deer for
instance. but arc migratory In their habits.
Dogs are absolutely useless in their pursuit. It
is only by still hunting that they can be secured.
Another popularity OF these deer is that when
shot, unless instantly killed, they instinctively
start to run up hill. II they are mortaly wound
ed they give but few bounds: then they turn
and run down hill. They will lie down soon
as they think they are out of sight, and IL not

Gus experiment with backtail buck, but he
fired shot Just in front OF him so as to throw
dirt In his face. This caused him to get up and
start slowly down the gnlly. hut In the opposite
direction from camp. We thereupon ran down
the hill to head hun off. but let him get
down to tho creek which ran down toward
camp. and we. having mnch shorter distance
to go. got there just he did, when by hallooing
and firing our guns in the air we turned him
down the creek. We had about two miles to go.
In that distance he lay down three times. and
we got him up in the same way we aroused him
the first time. We finally drove him within fifty
yards OF the camp and then despatched him.
He proved to be the largest buck killed that
season, and his immense antlers are now doing
service in my friends house in Colorado City as
a hat rack But people who know just how

he tells how we manipulated him and made him
