AN UNKNOWN ANIMAL.
The Surprise of a Western Hunter
Who Had Killed His
First Buffalo.

In 1912 Gen. William Ashley, the head
OF the Rocky Mountain Fur company,
travelled up the Platte valley with
large party of men, all Of whom were
suffering for want of food. Before they
reached the buffalo country the In
dlans had driven off the herds, and Gen.
Ashley's men were reduced to an allow
ance OF half a pint of -four day. This
was made into kind of Cruel, and
served to keep them alive.
Ii it happened that duck or goose
was killed, it was shared as fairly as
possible, but still the men were in a
sad plight. Finally one of the party,
jim Beckwourth, came on lucky find
OF deer and game, and the next day
ne was even more successful in way
entirely surprising to himself. He had
climbed tree to get fairer view, and
he says:
II perceived some large, dark-colored
animal grazing on the side of hill,
about a mile and half distant. I was
determined to have shot at him.
Meat was in demand, and the fellow,
well-stored, was worth a thousand
ducks.
II approached cautiously within rife
shot, scrutinizing him very closely,
and still unable to make out what he
was. Taking good aim, pulled the
trigger; the rifle cracked, and made
rapid retreat toward the camp. After
running about 200 yards and hearing
no movement behind me, I looked
round and saw, to my great Joy, that
the animal had fallen.
Continuing my course to camp, I
met the general, who saw blood on
my hands from previous encounter,
and asked me:
Have You shot anything, Jim?'
ayes, SIR
"'What have you shot|
1.-TWO deer and something else,' I
answered.
"'And what is the something else?'
"1 don't know, SIR
"'What did he look like? Had he
horns?'
81 saw no horns, sir
"'What color was the animal?'
"'You can see him, general said I,
by climbing yonder tree
HE assembled the tree accordingly
and took look through his spy-glass.
"a buffalo, by heavens!' he cried.
HE came nimbly down and gave or
ders for us to take a couple of horses,
go and dress the buffalo and bring him
to camp.
This was the first buffalo had ever
seen, though 1 had travelled hundreds
of miles in the buffalo country; and /
had actually been so excited as not to
notice his horns. The general had
many hearty laugh at me over those
horns. I had ignored them at rifle
range, and he had seen them plainly
when he was nearly two miles away"

Had Cigars But No Matches

While passing buckets at fire that
occurred in London two or three years
ago the prince of Wales wanted to light
his cigar, but the matches he had were
all wet. Some man in the line heard
the future king of England regretting
that he had no dry matches and
promptly proffered him one, remark
ing, as he did so, wholly unaware to
whom he was speaking:
IT have plenty of lights but nothing
to smoke"
"Have smoke with me, then" said
the prince, taking another cigar from
his pocket.
Thanks" said the man, accepting;
and he was about to light up when some
one disclosed to him the identity of the
prince. Greatly astonished, the loyal
British subject instantly removed the
cigar from his mouth, and, wrapping II
carefully in a silk handkerchief, ex.
claimed:
''That cigar will be handed down in
my family from father to son."

WASHINGTON IRv1NG's LOVE.
mained with the Gentle Humor-
list Through Life.

No man of letters has ever held .
warmer place in the affections of his
countrymen than Washington Irving.
When 1.-The gentle humorist" died,
commercial New York few flags at
half mast, and the city government
recognized his departure as an occasion
for public mourning. His life felt the
touches of romance.
Once the hand of Washington was
laid on Irving's head, and neither as
boy nor man did he forget the blessing
then given. He was born in New York,
a few months before the British evacu-
ated the city, and his patriotic mother
said:
"Washington's work is ended, and the
child shall be named after him."
One day the child's Scotch nurse saw
Washington enter store, and followed
him in.
"Please, your honor" said she,
"here's BARN was named after you"
Washington tenderly blessed the boy.
1t was while Irving was engaged in
writing his most humorous book,
"Knicke bocker's History of New
York. that there came to him the ro-
nance of great sorrow. Miss Hoff-
man, to whom he was engaged to be
married, died after brief illness. This
death cause his life to lack "the great
event of marriage" and bequeathed .
cherished memory, which neither time
nor activity effaced.
When Irving died, in his seventy
sixth year, "a lock to which he himself
had kept the key" says Mr.. DeWolfe
Howe, in his american Bookmen,"
was found to guard "a braid of hair
and beautiful miniature, with a slip
of paper marked in his own handwrit-
ing, Matilda Hoffman, No less faith
fully had he kept her Bible and Prayer
Book throughout his life"
Irving's publisher, G. P. Putnam,
said that 40 years after Miss Hoffman's
death, he had the miniature retouched
and remounted for it's possessor, then
66 years old. "When 1 returned it to
him in a suitable velvet case, he took
it to a quiet corner and looked intent
ly on the face for some minutes, ap-
parently unobserved, his tears falling
freely on the glass as he gazed."
"Who shall say" asks Mr.. Howe, that
the cherishing of such a memory as
this did not find it's direct expression
in the gentle chivalry with which he
bore himself as writer and as man,
towards all women?''
Yes, "some griefs are medicinable''
they humanize the soul. - Youths

COOLING TO THEIR EGGS.
1t L. Said the Stormy Petrels Hatch
Out Their Young in This
Manner.

The stormy petrels nest just above
the Atlantic surge on the islets near
Iona and the Hebrides. There above
the rock on certain islands in black,
buttery soil, in which they burrow like
little winged mice, and on nest of sea
pink lay one white egg. AS this deser-
ton of the regions of light and air by
birds is something outside the natural
course of their lives, it leads to various
odd and unexpected social complica-
tons and domestic problems. Among
the latter is serious one. the difficulty
of keeping the underground house
clean or moderately cool. 1t is usually
very hot. Sand-martins, for instance,
do not attempt to ventilate their bur-
rows as rabbits and rats do, neither do
kingfshers nor the stormy petrels
when they make their own burrows,
and do not creep into chinks between
piles of stones or rocks. Evidence of
the high temperature of this "hot
chamber where the young petrels are
Matched is seen in a very pretty popu-
lar belief in the Outer Hebrides.
The people say that they hatch their
eggs, not by sitting on them, but by
sitting near them, at a distance of six
inches. between them and the opening
of the burrow. Then the petrels turn
their heads toward the eggs, and ''coo''
at them day and night. and so "hatch
them with their song" This. which
sounds like a fable of the east Atlantic
islands, has really basis in fact. Mr..
Davenport Graham says that the &C.
count is Every correct; though never
heard the cooling noise by day, I often
did in the evening. It is rather purr.
ing noise. When it's nest is opened up
the bird is usually found covering a
few inches away from it's egg" This
hot and stuffy atmosphere may aid the
Matching of the eggs; but there is nc
doubt that it brings into being othe,
and very undesirable forms of life. The
nests and burrows of sand martins art
full of most unpleasant insects, and
those of the kingfisher are nearly a.
bad.-London Spect" tor.

The Dutch in Africa.

The Cape Dutch have no enthusiasm
for the English empire and the English.
To study their history from the time
we came to the cape will explain that
fact. But it is to their interest to be
loyal, and they know it. And their OPP
ponents know it. But in the South
African political war game anything is
good enough to beat Dutch dog with.
The Dutch are slow. They are mostly
uneducated, as we understand educa-
ton. They often seem stupid to a
quicker or town-bred mind. But the
man who buys Dutchman for fool
will have hard bargain. Even a
blindfolded Dutchman knows on which
side his bread is buttered, and their
motto in international politics is "Bet-
ter the devil we know than the devil we
don't know."-Fortnightly Review.

Biff! One Black Eve!

That was a cracking good blow
which Mr.. Cleveland landed on the
imperialistic optic. An epidemic Of
imperialism" he calls the wave Of
sentimental hypocrisy that has been
sweeping over the country. 1t suggests
at once the measles and other tnfantile
ailments, from which. Of course, there
is hope Of recovery always. He points
out that the killing Of natives has
from time immemorial been a feature
of territorial expansion. and with de-
Hghtful irony suggests that. If the Fill
ipinOs don't like the programme laid
out for their government by the i'm
perialists then they should forthwith
be slaughtered. and as for those sane
titled humbugs who have been push
ing the cause Of Imperialism along I'M
der the pretense of outstanding the
natives, why. as the ex-president in
sists, they can certainly devise some
scheme for saving the unprepared souls
of those who fall victims to the cpl
demic.
1t is blows like these which halt the
attention of the public 1t was the
body blow which brought John Bull to

England in EgyDt.

One of the blows for which Europe
has been waiting has fallen Lord Gro
mer, speaking in his official capacity
as the representative of the English
government, has declared a practical
.protectorate over Egypt. Lord Sails
bury, of course, is not committed to
the programme, if it pleases him to re-
rudiate the action of his diplomatic
agent but the attitude of the English
press shows that the declaration was
not casual.
Almost from the time that the guns
of John Bull We're trained upon Alexan-
dria the diplomats of Europe have rec
ognized that at some time the situa-
ton which now presents itself must be
met. Germany, England and France
are the factors in the problem, and of
the three Germany may be eliminated.
john Bull has small reason to expect
opposition from Berlin The Anglo
German entente is guarantee of that. IT
Is upon France that the force of the
blow falls, and from the standpoint of
Paris it is small matter whether the
words of Lord Cromer We're the definite
expression of fixed policy or sent out
as a feeler. In either event France
must resist now or lose the shadow of
power which remains to her along the
Nile
The real interest in the situation then
is in the attitude of France and not in
that of England. The idea of an Eng
llsh protectorate has long been dis
counted. The action of France has been
considered from every possible stand
point, but no one has assumed to saw
what France would do when the time
for action came. Internal questions
now still further complicate the future
France virtually was ordered out of
Fashoda and obeyed Lord Salisbury's
mandate. England, with the recent vic
tory in the Soudan to her credit is
stronger in Egypt than ever before
while France has to contend not only
with this prestige and her recent dis
play of fear but also the troubles at
nome, which are her greatest elements
OF weakness. Save in sheer despera-
ton open opposition is hardly to be ex-
rected. England has wisely chosen her
time to enlarge the Scope of her inf1u-
ence. If probabilities count for any,
tning in the case of France, the near
future will see England not only the
dominant, but the sole power in tbe
valley of the Nile

A Hint to Kiefer.

Never mind. Mayor Kiefer, II the
Dispatch does have fun with you.
You ought to remember, however, that
you have neglected to do something,
not for the public, from a Dispatch
point of view. but for somebody on the
Dispatch. There are grafters In jour-
nalism as we'll as in every occupation
in life. 1t is for you to seriously con-
slider whether a flyer or tenner will
do the business. If we were in the
business Of running the mayors shop.
we should by all means make it ten
ner. A tenner buys twice as much as
a FLYER, and then again it is a more
respectable sounding figure. Even
grafters must hate to be rated at too
small a figure. A Columbus achieved
the feat of making an egg stand on
end. A Kiefer might turn a chair full
of tacks point downward by the use
of tenner. Try it, your worship.
