There are many incidents con
nccted with the rush to Klondyke
exemplifying the terrible pressure
of idle men upon natural resources
in this and other countries, but
perhaps the most cold blooded
scheme is that Of Indianapolis
business men. Twenty enterpris.
ing citizens of that place contribut-
ed $1,000 each to send 20 insured
miners to the gold country, the
calculation being that a sufficient
number would die to reimburse the
investors by the insurance money
whether any gold 10 found or not.
This is getting as near to chattel
slavery as it is possible under the
law. Indeed it is an Improvement
on the old plan of negro slavery, 90
far as the capitalist is concerned,
tor he is not put to the expense Of
overseers or "nigger drivers,n there
being certainty that tho men
will do their utmost to succeed for
the sake of the share in the pro.
duct promised. The Indianapolis
is one that should sur.
gest itself to all employers of labor.
Millions of men in this country are
willing to sell their bodies if only
insured a living for the rest Of their
natural lives.

unless forced, cross the iron Of a rail-
road track.) and those to the south
were soon swallowed up in the general
slaughter waged by Indians, by pot,
hide. and tongue hunters. by, foreign
sportsmen and others who were out to
kill anything they saw on sight.
This was during the winter Of 1882
SO. The buffaloes to the north were in
many scattered bands, but there was
one great herd Of not less than $4,000
head. which had found temporary
refuge in the triangle formed by the
Musselshell, Miss9uri, and Yellowstone
rivers in Montana; and as yet they had
or white hunters.
But they were as surely doomed as
though already killed, for the railroad
iron cut them Off from the southern
range, and the Indians Of the Canadian
northwest, as well as those of our own
country, barred their retreat into the
far north; so they were hemmed in be-
tween the two. with no possibility Of
escape in either direction.
To illustrate in few words the re-
markable destruction Of that section
alone, it will only be necessary to say
that this last great herd was COM
pletely wiped out Of existence in less
than four months, while a year or two
before they could have been counted

with her hand held out. Then, with
deep and burning blush her maiden
modesty checked her and she stood, red
like July rose in the clear morning.
She swayed as if she would have
fallen, and leaping up quickly, l caught
her in my arms ere she had time to
fall.
Her eyes were closed and the blood
had ebbed from her face and left her
pale to the very lips. l stood with her
light weight in my arms. thrilling
strangely, for never woman had lain
there before.
Presently she gave long, snatching
breath and opened her eyes. ! saw the
tears gather in them as her head lay
still in the hollow of my arm. The
drops did not fall but gathered slowly
like wells that are fed from beneath.
You will not go away?" she said,
and at last lifted her lashes, with a
little pearl shining wet on each, as
swallow that has hipped her wings in

Then because / could not help it I
did that which l had never done to any
