AS you go down in these mines the sill
yer ore changes to copper. and. as l have
said, it is the copper and not the silver
that is valuable now. There are probably
good copper mines in other parts of Peru;
and Bolivia, you know. has very valuable
deposits of almost pure copper. There are
gold mines in different parts of the coun-
try. and also mines Of lead, zinc and
quicksilver Altogether, there are more
than five thousand different Peruvian
mining claims on record, one-third of
which, perhaps, are unwOrked.''
Pacific Conspany's New Concession.
when 1 was in Peru. Mr. Dudley. some
New York parties, known as the Pacific
Company had a concession for coal mines
in the Andes, and We're about to build a
railroad to them. What is that company
doing?"
'The Pacific Company has recently Sc
cured new concessions, and valuable ones.
1t has strip of land running from Pacas-
mayo to Chimbote, and extending from
there back mp the Andes to one of the nav
igable branches of the Amazon. There are
coal mines in the territory and with the
concession goes the right to build a rail-
road to get this coal to the seacoast. One
of the great troubles about the west coast
of South America is the lack of good coal
There are mines in southern Chile about
the Bay of Conception, but the coal there
is not of the best quality. The deposits eX-
tend for some distance along the coast. and
far out under the water. Hundreds of

THE AMERICAN BISON
Movement to Preserve the
Remaining Buffaloes.
GRANDEST OF BEASTS
WHAT PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
SAID IN HIS MESSAGE.
Wants Congress to Set Aside Certain
Reserves or Extention

Written for The Evening Star.
The passing" of a great and noble ami
NAL is n calamity which every intelligent
person should seek to avert. 1t is loss
to the world which can never be repaired,
since an animal once extinct, has gone for
ever. At this time we are called upon TO
prevent loss Of this kind; / refer to the
threatened extinction OF the American
bison. l cannot think of this magnificent
creature, which for untold thousands Of
years nature has gradually been molding
until 1t is one Of the srandest on the earth
/ cannot watch It's 1ast-approaching end
without making another earnest appeal to
the people OF the United States TO take their
last chance TO save It.
The Importance of an immediate and ac-
tive movement to preserve the last remain
Ing bunaloes. is recognized not only by
the press, which Is deyoting all necessary
space to the subject, but by every natural
history society, every Institution of learn
ing, every individual 10 whom l have writ
ten on the matter.
President Roosevelt, in his annual mes
sage, says:

gress the importance of authorizing the
President to set aside certain portions of
the reserves or other public lands as game
refugees forst the preservation Of the bison,

The Vatican's Way Out.
From the Providence Journal.

From the Providence Journal
According to all accounts the Vatican
finances are in a bad way. The cardinals
who manage them may have been honest
enough; but they have shown a woeful lack
of business sagacity, and large sums have
been lost in hopeless specuations. 1t costs
about a hundred thousand dollars a month
to cover all the expenses OF the papal adj
ministration, and at present not much more
than half that sum Is available. The pres
details than his predecessor is said to be
appalled, by the situation. and well he may
be He has done much already In reducing
expenses but obtaining a larger income is
far more difficult matter. Yet there Is
one course open to him II only he could
make up his mind to take it. The italian
government has long contributed an annual
payment to the Vatican which the popes
have refused to accept If the matter of the
temporal power could now be arranged on
reasonable basis and this money poured
into the Vatican treasury, income and ex-
pendture would come much nearer to ball
ancing.

At Christnastide.

Emma A. Lente. in lions Herald.
1t is Christmas the earth. Is 1t Christmas day
In heaven?
Oh. the little. little who have gone away to
God,
Having suddenly forsaken the brief mortal ways
they trod,
VIII they miss the dearest bliss that the loving
Christ hath given?
Is il Christmas day in heaYeni Yearning hearts
the whole world wide
Crave to the question-very tender
souied they
From whose the little children have but
lately gone away,
And for them they beg a portion In the blessed
Christmastide.
IT is Christmas day earth. II must BE- the
same In heaven
There are gentle mothersaints where the many
mansions be,
Who have learned in earthly places how to deck
His birthday tree,
And 10 them a time like this could greater
JOY be given.
1t Is Christmas on the earth. II must bs the same
In heaven.
Here the Joy is OVERLOOKING; there, the blissss
complete,
Where the happy children gather round the dear
Christs very feet.
While the gifts OF Paradise into their uftod tanH

spare. If you lecture, you can help by CIV
ing. at the end, a fve-minute talk in
favor of the preservation of the bison,
and If you need a few lantern Slides per-
them.
A Frame to Study.
II you are interested in educational mat
tiers, take the first opportunity to see fine
specimen Of a living buffalo. give him five
minutes thoughtful attention, and then
ask yourself If he is worth saving. AS you
look upon his mighty frame you will read
intelligently long chapters from the early
history of our country. Perhaps for the
first time you will get the real flavor of the
life OF the Indian life fnseparable from
the life of the great creature before you.
This was the animal he hunted on his wild
little pony; this is the animal which sup
piled his every want. That grim, burly
head was the mask he used in the 'TBuf-
faio' dance; that splendid hide served him
as a robe, as blanket as covering for
his tepee, and for score Of other purposes
That flesh. dried or cooked served him for
food; from those sinews he made strings
Tor his bows, and thread to sew his cloth
ing. From the long hair on the fore part
OF the body he made ropes and halters and
laiiats; in fact, there was no part of the
buffalo for which the Indian did not find
some very good use. Shall the teachers OF
the future and the children they teach be
deprived of this striking object lesson in
American history, or will you do your lit
tie share toward his permanent preserya-
ton?
Value of Skin.
LII you look at the matter from a purely
unitarian point of view, you will at least
admit that for many purposes a buffalo
skin has no equal. Today. buffalo robe
can scarcely be bought for money, yet
within comparatively few years this ar
foyht
reasonable price, If the buffaloes now Iiv-
ing were taken up by the government and
maintained in suitable reservations BY
the experiments carried on at Corbin Park
and elsewhere it has been proved that buf-
faioes multiply rapidly under proper con-
ditions, and that they are easy and mex
pensive to rear. But they should no longer
be left in the hands of private individuals
who are liable at any time to sell the last
survivors for their hides and heads.

abundant in our woods and mountains and

ward extinction.
Our Duty to the Future.
And a little further on he says:
I'VE owe 1t to future generations to keep
alive the noble and beautiful creatures
which by their presence add such distinc-
tive character to the American wilderness"
And surely no other animal appeals to
the American people from SO many points
of view as this one does An adult buffalo
bull is a creature of imposing grandeur
If you are an American, no doubt you take
some pride in the fact that one of the
grandest animals of all time Is native
OF this country; urge you to let your pride
in this matter prompt you TO do some act,
however small, tending to save this animal
for future generations of Americans. If
YOU have no time to do more, will you not
write me ever brief note expressing
approval of a definite plan to preserve the
buffalo, and 1 will see that your views are
brought to the attention of the government
Your letter will be in good company, and
will be filed with letters from many Of
the leading men in the United States, in
GLIDING President Roosevelt himself.
When You Love Them.
If you are a lover of animals, then you
must be doubly interested in the fate of the
bison-suficently interested, 1 feel sure,
to raise a hand to help in a reasonable
movement for his preservation. 1t is a
good thing to he in favor of having de-
sirable ends accomplished. but 1t is not
quite enough. The desirable ends are never
accomplished until somebody actually does
something toward their accomplishment
and where all are interested, all should
help at least a little. If you desire
thing. surely 1t should not be too much
trouble to ask for 1t.
If you are a naturalist no argument is
necessary; you know only too well that the
passing of the bison would be an irreparable
loss to the fauna OF this country. Your
assistance in this movement is most earnest
ly solicited for IL Is TO you and your breth-
rem that the country looks for advice in
matters of this kind. Perchance you are
member of some natural history society:
If so can you not bring this matter before
the members at some meeting in the near
future, and If possible urge them to pass
a set OF resolutions setting forth the ne
cessity of saving the bison, and express
ing their sympathy with the present move
ment to save him. If you are writer, do
not fail to write some letter or article In
favor Of the preservation of the buffalo, and
il you need illustrations, come to me and
for this purpose l viii give you what can

The Ditch Meeting

The ditch meeting in the
Council Room of the city bull
ding in this city today was we'll
attended, the house being full
of those interested in the
bitches. A Edgecomb, of the
Harrison county board of super
visors, was made chairman of
the meeting, and Mr.. Fred
ericks, of Pottawattamie coun-
ty, secretary. During the fore
noon session the boards passed
on the sufficiency of the ditch
petition and found that it was
sufficient and legally signed.
At the afternoon session a
protest was filed by Leroy c.
Brown Of Logan against the
construction of the bitches, also
there was a protest from a citl-
zen of Pottawattamie county.
The questions brought before
the meeting were discussed in
the best of humor and no hard
feelings were manifested by
any one present, all seeming
to want the very best action
taken that would be for the
good of all parties interested.
Among those present we
noticed Attorney Sawyer of
Sioux City, County Attorney
Killpack, of Pottawattamie Co.,
Supervisors Allen Bulls, H. g.
Brandeis, G. w. Spencer, d. r
Dryden and w. +. Baker, w.
NJ. Fredericks, Auditor of Pot
tawattamie County, and Re
porter Wolfe, of the Nonpnreil,
Supervisors Edgecomb, Hall
and Kelly of Harrison County,
and Auditor-elect Atkins of
this county.
At the afternoon session the
boards found that the bitches
were conclusive to public health
and appointed Hunt of Harrison
county and Ossler of Pottawat
tamie county to assess the
benefits. The boards adj
journed to meet in Council
Bluffs on Feb. 81, 1905 and take
further action.
j. z. Adams of Little Sioux
was present with a PROPOSE
ton for the Harrison county
board to join with nine other
counties in t. s5ase TN, are
interested in the bitches and
take the case of Ballah VS.
Harrison and Monona counties
to the supreme court and get
a decision on the same by Jan.
25th. 1t is thought the agree
ment can be made.
