oliver EATING" JOHNSTON DEAD.
Passing Away of O Pioneer and Trail
Blazer in California.
billings Gazette.

lbiiihHs oazctte'J
John Johnston, known the coun-
try over as Liver Eating Johnson"
died at the National Soldiers Home,
Santa Monica, Cal, on Sunday, Jan.
%, and thus came to the end the
earthly career OF a trail blazer and
intrepid pioneer whose heroic ex-
ploits on the western plains are in
separately connected with the early
history OF the commonwealth OF
Montana.
For the past twelve years Mr..
Johnson had made Red Lodge his
home, coming here from Billings and
taking up a ranch which he disposed
OF last summer to C. W. Savage, Of
Hunters Hot Springs. Before Bill
ings had a place on the map. Mr..
Johnston was deputy sheriff of Custer
county, with headquarters at the
town OF Coulson, and was on duty
there In the early eighties at the time
his bosom companion, "Muggins'
Taylor, himself an officer OF the law,
was shot and killed 10 the discharge
OF his duties by Henry Lump. a
drunken galoot whose wife support
ed him by taking in washing. Mr..
Johnson was the first constable In
Red Lodge and served several terms
in that capacity. Though a power
full man physically, exposure In camp
and on the trail brought its inevita-
BILE result, and his iron constitution
finally gave way. Wrecked in health
and In purse, he was forced to accept
financial assistance from his friends,
aud this worried him considerably.
Though disliking to leave the scenes
Of his former exploits, with the at
tendant associations, his aversion to
being made an object of public char
ity overcome his prejudices against
becoming an inmate of the home for
disabled veterans and so he reluct'
antly consented to enter the CalifOr.
MIA Soldiers home. Upon leaving
Red Lodge, less than two months
ago, the old man broke down and
wept like a child rs the train whirled
him away from his friends, and 1t Is
fair to presume that his last thoughts
as he lay dying in a strange land,
among strange people In that home
by the side OF the sea, were Of those
generous friends and exciting scenes
Of former days.

FAMOUS PEOPLES EYES.

The duke OF Wellington had, il is
said, blue hawks eyes cleaning with
military genius.
Audubon, as became a naturalist, had
"hawklike eyes that flashed like a
searchlight and were ever on the alert
for each movement of animated ma
ture."
Charles Lamb is described as having
glittering eyes, strangely dissimilar in
color, one being hazel, the other having
specks of gray in the iris, as you see
red spots in the bloodstone.
According to T~relawney no man had
brighter eyes than Byron; they were
gray and fringed with long black lashes.
Lady Blessington, writing of him a few
months before his departure to Greece,
adds that one eye was visibly larger
than the other.
The most striking feature of Burns
was his large dark eye. II was, we are
told by n writer, full of mind and
literally glowed when he spoke with
emotion or interest" Sir W.. Scott,
who knew the poet when he lived in
Edinburgh, says: II never saw such an
other eye in a human head, and | have
seen the most distinguished men of my
time"
Eyes, as we know, are apt to vary
considerably in shades Of color in the
same individual from time to time-a
fact that explains why Wordsworth's
familiar description of Coleridge as n
noticeable man with large gray eyes
does not quite agree with Carlyle's i'm
preston that his eyes were of a light
hazel, o this again with the writer
who found them light gray, prominent
and of liquid brillliancy. as though the
orb itself retreated TO the innermost
recesses of the brain"
Chatterton's brilliant gray eyes were
his most remarkable feature. Under
strong excitement one appeared bright
er, and, as in the case of Byron. larger
than the other. Calcott says: ut was
like the eye of a hawk. and one could see
his soul through it," Barrett never
saw such eyes, fire rolling at the bot
tom of them" and he confesses that he
often purposely differed in opinion from
Chatterton to see how wonderfully his
eye would strike fire, kindle and blaze
up.

the most Christian OF all nations OF
the present age"
Mr.. Sibley believed the United
United States were destined to carry
the arts OF peace and the story Of the
cross TO the remotest corners of the
globe. He appealed to the Demo-
cratic side to come back to the
teachings Of the Democratic fathers.
Expansion had been fathered by JEFF
ferson, Jackson. Polk and Buchanan.
"'Only towards oppose u.s. Blu
chanan said, and he was the last DEM
o%cratic president we have had"
| (Laughtsr.)
The Nicaragua canal should be
built, he said, and the subsidy bill to
encourage American shipping, passed.
China was to be dismembered. We
must reach out and get share OF
its commerce.
IF this administration" he went
on, "shall surrender the Philippines,
the historian Of the future which ex-
tolls Jefferson, Madison, Tyler and
Polk will write down McKinley's
action as the most pusilanimous in
the record. But this administration
will not surrender. It's critics will
be forgotten. Every advance to
higher and nobler forms of life has
been opposed by some old, conserva-
tive mossbacker, who prated Of the
good old days when his grandfather
swung by his tail in the forest prim-
eval."
Mr.. Sibley concluded as follows:
INF. Chairman, every dictate of rea-
son and OF prudence, every dictate Of
business ems and OF commercial ad-
vantage, every prompting Of human
ity and every obligation of plighted
fraternity unite In the demand that
we go forward. We have a mission
to fulfill, a destiny to accomplish, an
example to be afforded to the ma
tions how they may justly rule them
selves, not in license. but In liberty.
shall we fdlter 10 our duty, shall
we haul down that flag whose wav-
ing stripes bespeak the red Of sacri-
flee and the white Of purity, and
whose silver stars shining In the field
Of blue are an aspiration and an in
piration to all that Is noble In life
and beniicent In governmet? No, let
1t float, and,
'"Under its folds shall brothers be knit In
closer bands,
From the mountain crest to the gray sea
sands,
And the world be better | ween."
When Mr.. Sibley concluded he re.
ceived an ovation such as has not
been accorded any speaker in the
house this session. The debate
then returned to the question of
lynchings In the south.
Mr.. Krutz and Mr.. Griggs defend
ed the south. The latter described
some of the atrocities which led to
lynchings. While he did not justify
law-breaking he declared that those
who condemned the lynchings un-
qu%alifiedly had water, not blood, in
their veins.
Mr.. Gains raised the question as to
the application of demonstration to
our new possessions, holding that it
did apply, and citing decisions OF the
courts, relative to Alaska In support
Of his position.
At $40 p. m. the house adjourned.
