To the Editor:
As the approaching Pioneer Jubilee
awakpns recollections OF scenes ana
events incident TO the early history oil
this courtyard as the Overland MAIL
and Pony Express are to nave no spe-
cial representation in our Jnoilation,
perhaps 1t will not be upinteresting 10
recall tome "reminiscences OF those
times.
MANY articles on these subjects have
been written by authors eminent In
literature, obtaining their Inspiration
through the window OF Palace car.
The callow college graduate In MS
sensational and frantic Efforts to point
Faber and adorn u tale, has given us
bloodcurjiiDg particulars OF something
he had no experience In or opportuni-
ties to learn.
Previous to 1857 our mail facilities
were meager and lis arrival Irregular,
especially In the winter. The deep
spow, the Absence Of stations ON the
route, rovisiops anu feed for al lmaIs
making IL extremely nszarious 10 A.
tempt the trip. But oven these oifh'
cullies were overcome by tue harry
men who braved the storms aud perils
attending the passage OF the noun
tain ranges ia the winter season, often
having 10 drag the mail on rawhiues
for miles over the snow, and the hard
sbips endured by Charlie Decker anu
"Eph" Hanks are proverbiai among
olu-timers In the State.
In the spring Of 1857 Hiram KIM

the u. y. mails between Leavenworth
anu Salt Lake City anu sub.let II to
the b. Y. Express company. This
company equipped Its route with light
wBg me, mules aud herd animals,
erected stations at convenient ola
tancee, provisioned them anu prepare
for successfully carryins the mails and
passengers. They made but two or
three trips when the postal auth0ri,ies
refused to deliver the mail to TINS
company for the reason that the MILF
tary expedition had been ordereu 10

The b. Y. Express company and with

HUGE GAME PRESERVE.
A Missouri Sporting Club Will Establish

A Missouri sporting CluD Will Hseauiish
1t Shortly.
ST. Louis, Oct. 22-Deeds will be
signed today completing the purchase
of the last $50 acres of tract of land
in Iron county, Mo-, that is designed
to form one of the greatest game pre-
serves in the United States. Pur-
chases of land in the vicinity of Ironton,
Mo-, have been preparing for several
months until there has at last been
quietly bought enough land to serve
the purpose indicated.
The purchaser is the Mountain and
Lake Hunting AMI Fishing Club, in
Guiding in it's membership many well
known men in St. Louis. Charles
Lewis, ex-member of the city council,
is vice president, Charles Huff, secre-
tary and John w. Peckington, treas
urer. The tract selected for the pur-
poses of the club is in the richest game
portion of Missouri, in valley sur
rounded by the Ozark mountains.
The intention of the club is to pre-
sent the preserve to the state at the ex-
piration of 90 years, provided the plans
Of the club successfully carry out.
Within so years it is believed by the
club, the preserve will be the most ex-
tensive and richest in game in the
United States.
As soon as the papers are drawn up
work will be commenced in anticipa-

NEW DIGGINGS FOUND.
A Discovery in the Northern Part OF
British Columbia.

British columbia.
Victoria, B. c., Oct. 22.-News has
been received from Ominica, in the
northern part of this province, of the
discovery of new and rich creek, and
the remains of Walker, Gid, Hathaway
and Jim Robinson, who went there
some nine years ago and lost their lives.
An expedition was sent in headed by
an Indian, who had been there several
years before, but the second day the
latter lost his bearings. However,
Hugh Grant, who was really the head
of the party, with what information he
could gather from the Indian, managed,
after a very hard trip, to find the creek.
He found the remains and signs OF
Hathaway's and Robinson's work.
They prospected the ground, and found
prospects sufficiently rich to induce
them to stake off claims for all those
interested. Samples of the gold brought
back are the purest seen in British
Columbia.
Grant and his partner intend to spend
this winter on the new creek (Which it
was decided to name in honor of Hatha-
way and Robinson). Grant estimates
that he can make from So to Sc per day
rocking.
When the news of the discovery
spread, word was sent to all the pros
pectors in the district who could be
reached, and an old-time rush ensued.
A number of claims have been staked
and recorded since All who came back
with samples seem well satisfied with
