Canadian Cruelty.

The following letter from British

1900, which appeared in a New York

the Canadian Mounted Rifles, to his
parents in this city contains the fol-
lowing interesting paragraph:
The Beers are as troublesome as
ever, shipping at our patrols and out
posts frequently and then running,
The boys got even with them the 9th

while all the time the Secretary of
War was engaged in practically
throwing dirt upon his predecessors

chiefs, because he was engaged in tel.
ling the truth to the house of COM
mons. The war began in braggado-
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, want of pre-
paration, and, he believed, i'll greed;
it had brought the English people into
a position of more humiliation before
the tribunal of mankind than at any
time, in its history. Spain, feeble,
crippled and bankrupt, could put an
army of over 100000 men in the field
when dealing with the insurgents in
Cuba. But the greatest maritime ma
ton and the greatest empire the world
had ever seen had only been able to
put quarter of a million men in line
of battle in the course of six months.
He was not one of those who thought
that the war office was deserving of
all the blame that had been put upon
it. He thought the true culprits were in
the colonial office. In any other coun-
try in Europe would not care have
been taken that diplomacy should
keep in touch with the war office?
That was what was Enthusiastically
called craftsmanship. 1t was not the
new diplomacy. Sixteen millions was
asked for now. When the house met

tale would proceed without anyone of

Does ancient or modern history re-
cord anything more barbarous? This
is the treatment melted out to heroic
defenders of their homes and father
land who fall into the hands of the
great and glorious empire of Great
Britain. And it is one of our Cana
dian boys who gloats over this butch
cry of an old man fighting for his ma
tive soil.
A few years ago the liberty-loving
citizens Of the United States would be
heard around the world in righteous
indignation laundering their protest
against the nation who would perpe-
trate these murders under the cloak
of war. But that was before the
American people blotted from the
pages of their country's history the
treatment their immortal ancestors re-
ceived at the hands of the British
dragons and Hessian assassins who
butchered their fathers, desecrated
their homes, burned their villages,
violated their wives, mothers and Sis
tiers. Alas! for the departed glory of
the nation once just and powerful in
the cause of justice, and the protector
of oppressed peoples"

The Last of the Buffaloes.

The American bison is dying with
the century. According to a computa-
ton which has just been made as to
the number still in existence, only a
little over 1000 of them are left. These
are scattered through private collec-
lions, city parks, geological gardens
and a few government reserves. In
the neighborhood of 200 of them, it is
estimated, are running wild to the
west of Great Slave Lake, in Canada
Both in Canada and in the United
States they are now practically ex-
tinct. Fewer of them by far We're
ever in Canada than We're in this coun-
try, but in Canada, too, they have
virtually disappeared, says the Globe
Democrat.
This 1000 buffaloes are all that is
left of the immense herds, number
ing many millions, which roamed over
the plains between the Mississippi and
the Pacific in such numbers as to
amaze the earlier explorers and which
We're found even east of the Alleghan-
les by the first white settlers OH this
continent. Cortez three and three
quarter centuries ago, on his arrival i'll
Mexico, saw images of the animal
among the Indians of that locality,
though he probably never saw any of
them alive. Cabeza de Vacca and his
| three companions in the eight years of
wanderings which led them from Flor
| ida across Americas dark continent to
the Gulf of California, three and two
thirds centuries ago, We're probably
| the first of white men who ever set
/ eyes on the American bison. Corona
do and his fellow conquest adorers a
few years later, in their chase after
Quiviras golden phantom, saw vast
| numbers of the 'humpbacked cows
Spaniard, Frenchman and Englishman
among the explorers of the great West
of the early days saw and have left
records of the buffalo.
Lewis and Clarlse's narrative of their
journey from the Mississippi to the
Pacific in the early years of the pres
ent century is enlivened by many
descriptions of the immense herds of
buffaloes which they saw. Horace
Greedy, i'll his journey across the
| plains in 1850, saw great herds of
them at many points in his course,
one of which he estimated, by the
| area which it covered, to contain
about 1,OOO,O0O. They We're numerous
enough in the later Cos and early los
in Kansas to delay trains on the Kan
sas Pacific Railroad for an hour and
| more at Il time in crossing the track.
! Boat men on the Upper Missouri used
to complain, within the past forty
years, that they frequently encounter
ed numbers swimming across the RI
YER which compelled them to, "tie up
| for several hours at time. The
transcontincntal railroads, however,
ended the days of the buffaloes., Great
swarms of hunters We're carried out
by the railroads across the prairies
and plains, and vast numbers of the
buffalocs We're killed out Of sheer
wantOnness. Next to the Indian HIM
self the buffalo was the most pic
turesQue and distinctive feature of the
American landscape in the wilder re-
gions from the earliest days down to
a comparatively recent time, but both
the Indian by seclusion in reserva-
tons and the buffalo by death have
been overwhelmed by the wave of
civilization.
