Last of the Indian Fighters.

From 1850 to 1856 there were no In- dian agencies esta blished, and the ad- vent of a white man was an invitation to the treacherous instincts of the In- dian. Murder, arson and cattle and horse stealing ran riot.
 Farley went out one morning to in- spect his stock, and found that twenty five horses and hundred head of cat tie had been stolen, and that his favor ite saddle horse had been killed and mut1lated, it's mane and tail hanging defiantly on the gate posts of the cor ral.
 Uncle Jack hastened back to his cabin, where he secured extra ammuni- tion and another brace of iX-shooters Three friendly prospectorS with an ex- tra horse were in the neighborhood, and they and Uncle Jack set forth in pursuit of the thieves. Reaching a deep canyon where one of the Eel River tributaries came cascading down the mountain they were about to water their horses when they were struck by the peculiar color of the water. It was blood red.
 This was enough to tell Uncle Jack that the Indians were butchering his cattle up the river and washing the carcasses in the stream.
 In flash he and his companions were riding up the trail where they soon met shower of arrows. This was in the day of the muzzle-loading rifle, and every one of their return shots had to tell.
 Uncle Jack and his friends dismount- ed and broke for cover. In the shelter of trees and bushes they poured a slow but deadly fire on the attacking red men. As fast as the savages could re- organize and surround, the rifles of the white men would cut gaps in the sav- age circle. Time after time the Indians were repulsed, and finally after five hours of bitter fighting. their supply of arrows gave out and they beat a re- treat.
 Uncle Jack recovered only a remnant of his band of cattle and none of the horses; but exactly forty Indians. good and dead" marked the quantity of his vengeance. This was one of Uncle Jacks most successful days: 1t soon became historic and was instru- mental in securing him Governmental scoutship when the first Indian post was established in 1856

show of pride; and he went on to state he had discovered a method of making not sham gems,a abut real ones.
 The jeweler was incredulous; the gems before him were unquestionably genuine.
 Well, I'll let you have that lot for $10,'' replied the inventor, 'and I can make you any number you like for $1 each and you must know that they are worth from sS to s16 each. The fact is I want you to enter into partnership with me for the manufacture and sale of these gems; I'll manufacture them and you can sell, and in this way we can work in secret and scoop the mar ket." .
 The bated breath of the dealer in precious stones was fairly taken out of his body by this noble offer, and he, having bought the sapphires at the price asked, said he would think the matter over and give his decision if the

 American Indian fighter, famed
 in history and dime novel, is
 rapidly becoming a memory of
 the past. There are only a few
 of him left. With the tanning and the thinning out of the Indian. his occupation vanished, and if you dis cover one to-day he is either a very old man or else a very untruthful one, especially in California, where the hos tile savage has not been seen in many years.
 One of the few authenticated Indian fighters of California is old Jackson Farley, commonly known as Uncle Jack,' who lives on his ranch high up in the mountains of Mendocino County. Uncle Jack has passed his ninety second birthday and will modestly ad- init the killing of one hundred Indians. Only he will not say that he killed them; ''stopped' is his favorite expression-an express sion, by the way, that originated with him in the early fifties and subsequent ly became official vernacular among scouts and cattlemen.
 Between the years 1849 and 1865 Uncle Jack was engaged in almost constant warfare with the Indians of Mendocino, Trinity and Humboldt counties. He came to California from Virginia with the early settlers in search of adven- ture and fortune; and in search of re- venge, too, for during the journey across the plains his best friend died from an Indians arrow, and Uncle Jack fell easily into the then common belief that the only good Indian was a dead one.
 Trophies galore of the balance of that bloody journey he showed to The Call representative. Scalps by the dozen, chairs bottomed with Indian hide, razor strops of the same grewsome material and countless bows, arrows toma- hawks and firearms
 With neither wife nor child, only the comradeship of a big mastiff, Uncle Jack arrived here in 1S49 and settled down to the business of stock raising on the lonely mountain ranges of Men dOcinO.

 man entered the shop of famous O Parisian diamond merchant and
 requested to see the proprietor. On his wish being granted, he drew from his pocket a little packet of blue gems and spread them before the jew eler, asking for candid opinion upon their merits.
 "Sapphires!'' exclaimed the jeweler. ''Very fine ones. Do you wish to sell them?"

a Delightful Excursion-A Boat Race
One of the Novel Features-Capt.
Davis Wins It In the Cambria.

Yesterday was the closing day at
Saltair, and the weather approached
the IDEAL The Women'S Press club
spent a most delightful day in boating,
dancing. bathing, lunching and in old
, time sociability. The occasion had
been twice postponed, but notwith-
standing this, the attendance was good.
Among the ladies of the club present
were; Mrs. E. b., Wells, honorary
president; DR.. r. B. Pratt, president;
Mrs. r. H. Doolan, vice president; Mrs.
Nj. A. Lambert, secretary; Mrs. i. X.

Mrs. E. H. Hyde. Mrs c. F. Wilcox
and Mrs. r. K. Thomas Mrs. A. NJ.
Bradley was detained at home by rea-
son of illness in her family.
In the afternoon there occurred a
boat race, in which the Cambria,
Brooklyn and Lily participated. The
first named, Captain D. L. Davis, own
er, won the race with apparently little
effort.
Through the courtesy of Captain Da-
Wis, a Herald representative, accom-
panied by his wife and a small COM
pany, enjoyed ride in the Cambria,
which was very pleasant indeed. The
captain took out several companies
during the afternoon, who enjoyed the
boat ride immensely.
The season just closed has been the
most profitable one since the resort
was built. The season has been long,
the fare low and the bathing fine, all
of which contributed to the eminent
success attending the business. The
place seems to be steadily gaining in
popularity. A gentleman who has Wis

CANADIAN PACIFIC Willis.
Will Abide By the Decision of the
Commission.

Montreal, Sept. THE Canadian Pa
ciic railway has replied to the recent de-
cision of the interstate commerce COM
mission in letter addressed by T. G.
Shaugnessey, vice president, to the exec
utive officers of the competing and con-
Meeting lines.
In this letter Mr.. Shaughnessey says,
after commenting on the marked spirit
of fairness with which the commission
handled the matter, in view of the fact
that the Canadian Pacific railroad is a
foreign corporation concludes:
However, in this case, as in all previ-
Gus cases involving United States traffic,
the company accepts without question,
and will be governed by the decision of
the commission. taking care, of course,
that its rates will be on the basis of
those that prevail by any other routes,
and tariffs covering traffic affected by
the decision. to take effect on the 25th
inst, restoring ante-bellum rates, as far
as practicable in existing conditions, will
be filed by this company in accordance
with the interstate commerce Iaw."
