THE LAST HERD OF BISON.

Now Confined In a Pasture of a Thousand
Acres, IncIosed by a Fence Seven Feet High.
The only hero of bison of any inn
portance now left in the United States
from the millions which a few years
ago roamed over the entire country
between the Missouri river and the
Rocky mountains consists OF about
fifty full blooded buffalo, and the
same number of mixed bloods, all now
the property of James Philip, of Fort
Pierre, South Dakota, who is known
all over the range country as Scot
tyn Philip.
This nerd is the product of a hunt
twenty years ago, when Frederick Du-
pree, an old French trapper, forsee-
ing the early determination of the
species, started for the Little Mis-
souri, country to capture a few calves
for the purpose of raising a herd. In
this hunt he led a band of Indians and
half-breeds, who only accomplished
the purpose for which they set u
after a long and dangerously search
among the few small punches of buff
falo yet known to be roaming in that
country. Only half a dozen calves
were taken alive, and from these the
present herd has grown.
Mr.. Dupree allowed the buffalo to
range practically wild on the Chey-
enne river, with no further attention
than to Sc that they did not get out
of that part of the State, where they
were kept until his death. In the
settlement of the estate none of the
numerous heirs cared to take them as
his share of the estate, and they were
sold to "Scotty" Philip, after an inef-
fectual attempt to dispose of them to
the general government.
Just what the value of the herd is
is problematic, but as it is the only
herd left in the country on which to
draw lOT SpeCllllSuS, ILLS Will SlNC ~
an increasing value as the years go
by.
Having had practically the same
freedom as in their native state, the
specimens are somewhat different
from those usually seen in parks and
menageries. One bull out of this herd
was sold for show purposes about ten
years age for 81, 1000.
At present the full bloods, consist
ing of all ages from four-months-old
calves to huge bulls, are confined in a
pasture of a thousand acres, which
has been inclosed among the rough
lands in a bend of the Missouri river
about eight miles up the stream from
Fort Pierre. The fence which re-
strains them is seven feet high, with
posts five feet apart, and is composed
of strong woven wire, over which are
numerous strands of barb wire.
The herd is an attraction to visitors,
as an opportunity of seeing these ami
mails is not common as in the past.

TELLS IRON MOULDERS' SIDE
Another Version Of the Conference with
FssthsrEtOne Foundry.
WHY PROPOSITION WAS NOT ACCEPTED
Local Union Doubts sincerity of Chi
cago Company In Making one to
Establish Foundry at Union
Pacinc shops

The Iron Moulders' union has issued a
statement as to its position on the offer OF
the Featherstone Foundry company to open
a foundry in this city under conditions
which were offered to the union by a rep
resentative Of that company in the city this
week. This statement will be presented to
the executive committee Of the CONNER
cial club at its next meeting and is as fol-
lows:
OMAHA, June ITO the Editor OF The
Bee: Mr.. Wright Of the Featherstone
Foundry company Of Chicago, In his state
ment to the press, makes it appear that
the moulders OF this city are arbitrary in
not accepting his proposition to build q
foundry in Omaha. Now, we believe the
Featherstone company is not sincere in the
matter. II 1t were sincere 1t certainly
would not refuse our counter-proposition.
1t agreed that II we removed our objections
to Union Pacific work being made in Chi
cago permanently 1t would within ninety
days operate or have in course Of construc-
ton a foundry in Omaha or forfeit $500.
Now. you can see hat II 1t were not sim
cere that the forfeiture OF 1900 is a small
item to It. We agreed to accept its propo-
sition with the exception that we would
grant an armistace Of ninety days on such
work and If at the end Of that time the
company failed to operate or have In course
Of construction a foundry In this city, then
as a matter Of course we had the right
to believe It was not in good faith and
would renew our objections to such work
being done in Chicago. To this the COM
pany objected and the only question is was
the Featherstone company sincere or were
we right in refusing its proposition. We
maintain we are right in the position we
have taken, not only for our own inter-
ests. but the interests Of this city: also
had we accepted the company's PROPOSE
tion, we believe 1t would not have built a
foundry in Omaha All that was neces-
sary on it's part was the forfeiture Of 81, 500.
We believe our members have intelligence
enough to properly vote on such a propo-
sition and 80 notified Mr.. Wright we could
not accept his proposition.

GORDON is NOT WITH OMAHA
Young Lawyer Did Not Accompany
the Team on Its Denver
Expedition.

1t is probable that Eddie Gordon. the law
student, will not be on the pitching STAFF OF
the Omaha team this season. He did not
join the club at Lincoln when the boys went
through there Friday night on their way TO
Denver, although the original intention had
teen for him to do so. Gordon will not be
with the team on the present trip in any
event, and perhaps not at all. Rourke may
decide to give him one more try during the
next series at home, but this is not certain.
Meanwhile the club will continue with
four pitchers unless an unusually good
chance to pick up a valuable mar comes
along. Rourke is not exactly looking for
another twirler, but will accept an oppor-
tunity to secure a crack man. He has in
tended from the first to run FIVE throwers,
and while he can get along fairly well with
four, would not object to the full quintet
As far as other players are concerned,
Rourke Is not hunting for any more just
now, as he says he has the full quota
necessary for the work. Crippled men,
he says, are q nance Of the
game, and you cannot carry two complete
teams with you just to prevent such en-
barrassments. 1t is Rourke's opinion, any
way, that IL a man has to sit on a bench
most Of the time you cannot get good ball
out Of him when you do want 1t.

FLAG DAY GETS OBSERVANCE
Patriotic Citizens Remember It's Natal
Day by Generally Display
ing Old Glory.

One hundred and twenty-five years ago
yesterday ongress enacted that the United
States nag should be thirteen stripes, al
ternate red and white" and that the union
be typihed by thirteen stars, white in a
blue held, representing a hew constella-
ton That is why so many specimens OF
OLD Glory were flung to the breeze in Omaha
yesterday. Friday Mayor Moores issued a
proclamation calling upon all good citizens
to observe Flag day and the result is that
flags are flying from public buildings,
school houses, stores and private resi-
dences.
1t is only within the last few years that
Flag day has been recognized to any great
extent. Three years ago a number of mill
tary, patriotic and veteran societies, think
Ing to encourage a more general respect
Tor the national %colors, banded themselves
together under the title Of the American
Flag association, and since then every year
this organization has been sending out cir
culars TO mayors Of cities and governors
OF states asking that p-roclamations be
Issued calling for al appropriate obsery-
ance OF the occasion. In early all cases
these requests have met with ready
responses and the indications are that Flag
day in a few years will be as well known
as the Fourth Of July.

ment is popular" said Mr.. Cornish, 'since

SEEMING At CUT OFF LAKE
Sandy koDOnald's Permit Causes Decided
OOmmOtion Among Anglers,
GAME WARDEN slEPKNs INVESTIGATES
Cannot Interfere with Men working
Under Permit Issued by Cow
ernor Unless They XIII
Game Fish.

George slmpkins, game warden OF the
state, came UP from Lincoln yesterday
TO take q hand in the fight going on over
the seining Of Cut on lake. S. H. Melon
aid, q member Of the Douglas County Fish
and Game association, some time ago Sc
cured from the governor a permit TO seine
the lake and remove the carp. which It was
claimed injured the development OF game
fab In the lake. When he began to seine
q storm Of protest was raised by other
members OF the association, who insisted
that the SEEMING was ~injuring the spawn
and fry OF game FISH. II was said by the
opposition that the SEEMING was really be-
ing done for the purpose Of selling the
carp, which bring 5 cents q pound on the
local market, and that several hundred
pounds had been sold, the proceeds being
divided between the person holding the
permit and the men who acted as his agent
In seining.
This week. when It was hrst made public
that SEEMING was in progress, the men who
have been doing the work, It is said, de-
sisted In the daytime add pursued their
work in the evening and at night Finally
It came TO the ears Of those opposed to the
SEEMING that the men with the seines did
not limit their catch 20 carp and buffalo

into the baskets and to the market.
Il cannot tell what will be the course
pursued by the department" said Mr..
~simpkins. ut all depends upon the result
OF the investigation. There is a difference
Of opinion in Omaha as to the necessity for
SEEMING the lake, but men with permission
from the governor cannot be molested as
long as they observe the rules laid down in
that permit. II any Of their employees have
been guilty OF violating those rules the per-
NIT will not avail them as a defense and
they will be prosecuted as though no per-
NIT had been issued. while the permit may
be revoked. / cAnuo tell until l have
made a complete investigation as to the
facts. You can hear all kinds Of reports
and some OF them are groundless. BY this
evening l may know what TO do and 1t may
require a day or two to decide"
