MANY SKULLS AND WEAPONS.
German Skipper Brings Fine Coilec
ton of Curios to Portland.

ton OF Cur1OS 10 fOrtlahu'
Captain w. B. Berndt brought to
Portland yesterday what is believed
to be the greatest private collection
of spears, swords and other weapons
of warfare in existence In the world
today, says the oregon Daily Jour-
nal. Included in it are also many
curios from remote parts Of the world
where civilization is yet In Its in
fancy.
Captain Berndt is master of the
| German steamer Germanicus, which
arrived here yesterday morning to
finish her lumber cargo for Syndey'
Australia. The collection occupies
the walls of two departments of the
cabin and is greatly admired by
everybody coming on board. 1t rep
resents a search of 90 years, and 1t
would be difficult to estimate its val
ue. A small pair of antelope horns
from the interior of Africa Captain
Berndt values at $500, and they oc-
cupy only about three inches of the
wall space. The rings on these tiny
horns indicate that the animal had
attained an age of at least 3S years.
A collection of human skulls form
the decorations surrounding the skip
per's bed and constant clatter of
teeth is heard In response to the roll
ling of the steamer when in motion.
This weird and gruesome music, the
captain declares, has the effect of a
lullaby. Staring him in the face is
the skull of one of the Spaniards OF
early days in California. 1t was Sc
cured in Eureka when the steamer
was there about year ago. A per-
feet Flathead Indian skull also occu-
pies a position of honor.
The sword collection contains speci-
mems from all parts of the dark con-
tinent and Oceanica, some of them
being extremely dangerous because
of their poisoned edges. Captain
Brendt scratched cat one day with
the point Of a dagger that had been
described as poisonous and the nine
lives went out almost instantly.
Captain Brendt knows the history
of every article in the collection, and
there is not one In the lot without a
history and an interesting one at
that One murderous looking knife
has the record Of having snuffed out
70 human lives. 1t was once the prop

Bears Enviable Record.
While personally Col Jackson
talks but little of his military record
the army and navy register shows
him to have one of which he may
well be proud. At the outbreak of
the civil war he enlisted as a private
and by his ability and gallantry won
his way to the rank of major. He
was twice rewarded directly for gal
lantry in action, once at North Anna
river, Virginia, and again at Weldon,
Virginia.
At the close of the civil war ne
became an officer in the regular cav
airy and increased his fame by many
years OF Indian fighting. He was
made lieutenant colonel because of
gallantry in action against the In
dams at Lost River, oregon, Novem-
Der 2s, 1872, and at Clearwater, Ida
no, in 1877. He was given a medal
of honor for most distinguished gal
lantry at Camas Meadow, Idaho,
where he, with several of his men,
rescued the body of one of his troop
ers who had been killed by the In
dams,
There is now bill before congress

TRENTON. Dec. 4.-Lieutenant-Col-
onel Nelson Y. DUNCAN. commander Of
the Second Regiment New Jersey Ma
tional Guard, win in a few days issue
official orders for the equipment of the
entire regiment in olive drab uniforms,
to replace the blue uniforms now worn
by the State militiamen. The new uni
forms will be in strict conformity with
the regulation dress of the United
States army.
The matter of equipping the entire
New Jersey National Guard with the
same uniforms is now under advise
ment by the State Military Board, and
while no official notification has beer
sent out ordering the change from the
blue TO the gray, it is believed that the
change will be made.
While the new olive drab uniforms
do not present as nobby an appearance
on parade as the blue uniforms they
will be more scrviceable.
Conclusive evidence of the superiority
of the drab over the blue was furnished
last week, while the Jersey guardsmen
were doing duty In Keasbey.
