Several Ma nificent pecimens to
BE seen with the Historical Wild
West Of the now almost extinct
American Bison. Only 4 few years
ago countless millions Sc these
animals roamed over the plains Of
North America. They had an alb
solute title to, and possession 81, aa
many thousands Of miles as the Tn
dams had to their hunting grounds.
They were the chile storehouse
for the Indian. The Buffalo sup
Piled him with almost all the
+necessaries Of life; from the lighter
hides, when tanned, he got his Leg
gins, shirts and lighter garments;
from the heavy tanned hides he
made his wigwain and moccasins,
also his blankets; from the sinew
Of the back he made his thread and
bow strings; from the horns, his
spoons and many small. vessels.
The bones furnished him tanning
instruments,and from the various
parts of his flesh almost his entire
sustenance. But with the destruc-
ton of the Buffalo, the indians
independence left him, and he is
now ward of our government.
The buffalo never could have been
subdued but for the extension of
the railroads across the continent.
Their territory had been we'll nigh
inaccessible, but railroads made
transportation cheap and immedi-
ately followed a demand from all
over the world, for the beautiful,
soft and warm robes of the Buffalo.
The supply had to equal the de-
mand. Millions of hides annually
were sent abroad, and other mil
lions were used in our country.
The slaughter became SO wide
spread and of such proportions
that almost utter annihila ton be-
came simply a question of a brief
period of time. Consequently the
American Bison is now one of the
rarest and most expensive of ami
mails, and of the few now in exis-
tence, the Luella Forepaugh=Fish
exhibition owns the choicest
specimens and at each and every
performance of the Wild West, a
genuine Indian Buffalo hunt will
be given. 49,
Will exhibit at Virginia, Wednes-
day, June II.
