~ the millions OF buffalo which, not
MANY years ago, roamed over the
country west of the Missouri river, tho
onlv herd of any importance, as to
numbers. is in the possession OF James
pb,lin Of Fort Pierre. Mr.. Philip, who
"a known all over the Western range
country as 'Scotty." became the owner
of the herd about a year ago, when II
was disposed of in the settlement OF
the estate of Fred Dupree, an old
French trappert
About twenty-five years g Dupree
saw that the lays of the buffalo were
numbered, and took 1t upon himself 70
perpetuate the species, believing tnat
the best place to do this was In the
country where they were natives. IN
furtherance of this project he organ
ized a band of Indians and mixed
Hoods. which, headed by himself, went
M into the Little Missouri river
trv where a few small herds OF buHaio
were vet known to roam. Their speclal
n, ission was the capture Of enough
calves to start the herd, but 1t was a
difficult task, and only half a doaen
were CAPTURED. From these was start
ed the herd, which now comprises
about fifty full-blood buffalo, besides
as many more nalf-b1eeds.
AS long as Dupree lived these AMI
| mails were allowed to run practically
wild on the Sheyenne river, the only
attention paid to them being to see
that they did not work of the range.
! After his death none of the numerous
t heirs cared to take the herd as a part
of the share Of the estate, and the en-
tire herd was sold, "Scotty' Philip De-
ing the purchaser.
AS soon as he had secured possession
he prepared a pasture In whlcn TO noio
them, the location being a rough tract
of land in a bend Of the missouri river
about eight miles above Fort Pierre.
Here a thousand acres Of land was en-
| closed with q fence several feet nlgn,
built Of strong posts set 1--WE feet apart
on which was first placed strong woven
wire. and over this several strands OF
barbed wire. In this pasture the lull-
bloods Of h herd are being held, n
! are a general attraction to visitors IN
that section Of the Northwest.
Having been practically oamln
free all their lives, they are diferent-
| looking creatures from those usually
seen in parks and menageries, the
leaders of the her ] being monster bulls
weighing more than a ton apiece.
In the past a few animals from this
herd has been disposed Of to shows n
parks, and while Mr.. Philip expects to
breed them as an investment, Tor
robes, this herd is about the only n
left in America t. draw upon for spec
linens, and in this alone they are OF
continued increasing value to the own
er.

witnessed by small audience on both
occasions, was creditable. Easily
the leading feature, though it didn't
cost anything to see it, was the
balloon ascension and parachute leap
by Prof. David McDade. He as
sended to all almost invisible height
when he left the balloon. Before
the parachute was spread out his

ican' Is sensibly obeyng that demand Ru-
mors of this innovation have already been
heard and interest and specua ion as to
what 1t will be like is keen. The "North
American" when 1t does anything, does it
better than anyone else, and in the matter of
Sunday paper the same rule is expected to
apply.
For one thing, the North American
promises that its Sunday edition will be
different The standard of text and illus.
tration will be as high as that of any month.

sense. 1t will not magnify the trivial. neither
will it make heroics out of the sillv and COM
monplace. The "North American'sr motto
is "a sensible Sunday newspaper" and if it
is such, it certainly will be different and
welcome.
1t will strive, Of course, to be interesting
aud entertaining. That goes without saying.
The special writers and artists are of the first
rank and the magnificent mechanical equip
ment OF thn "North American" insures per.

As to the details OF the paper itself this
much is known. There will oe four coIored
supplements in addition to the news sections
and sheet music. There will be supple.
ment of eight pages in colors, devoted ex-
clusively to women's interests, comic Sec
ton of four pages in colors, and sixteen
page supplement in colors, explaining the
involved and varied processes of making a
newspaper. The sheet music will be like
that on sale in music stores, in every partc-
ular. The first Sunday "North American"
will probably consist of 10 pages, of which
81 will be used for news.
