A REMINDER OF LA SALE.
Cross Found on the Site of Old Fort
ST. Louis Built by Explorer
In Texas in 1886.

Houston, Tex-A number of an
cient relics have been found from
time TO time during the last few
years upon the site of Old Fort St
Louis which La Sale, the noted
French explorer, and his brave band
Of adventurers erected in 1856 upon
the east bank of the Navidad river,
just above where Port Layaca, Texas,
is now situated. One of these historic
reminders of the visit of the explor-
er is a cross which is made of iron.
It was found several feet beneath the
surface near the bank of the river. It
Is now in possession of Harry Bick-
ford of Port LaYaca.
It was from Fort St Louis that La

ton into the interior in search of the

Mississippi river. He entered Pass
CavallO and explored MatagoTda bay
in the original belief, it is said, that it
was here that the Mississippi river
emptied its broad waters. He spent
some time exploring the coast in this
section and then went up the Navidad
river some ten miles and there built
his little fort The site of this first
settlement is full of beauty, The
tmbers of the ancient fort long since
have rotted, but there are still heaps
of stones and pieces of iron to be
found scattered about upon the site.
The trip which La Sale and his
band of explorers made across the
country was full of dangers and hard
ships. They are said to have left a
few men behind to retain possession
of Fort st. Louis. What became of
these men history does not say. Il

size OF a Jersey COW, and 1t cannot be
said that he bears much resemblance
to the American bison. His body and
legs suggest both the antelope and the
goat, his back is like that of a yak and
his head, which is surrounded by curv-
ing horns, has the bulging nose which
suggests that of the moose. The takin
has hOOfs which are parted and his
ways are like those of the goat He
Es rather heavy animal, yet he
spends his time in the western noun
tains of the Sze-Chuan province, where
he gets about among the crags as
lightly as does the big horn of the
Rockies. He is strong and able
bodied and in a fight can give a good
account OF himself.
The hide of the takin which was
sent here was dry and as hard as a
board, and Mr.. Higgins, chief taxider-
mist of the museum, had d long strug-
gle with it In getting it into proper
form, but by following the hair pat
terms he has been enabled to present
the skin with ali the distinction which
an animal of such complicated ana
tony deserves.
The hOofs OF the creature are very
hard and have grooves and scratches
In them, which indicate that he was
well accustomed to making his agile
way over the sharp rocks in his native
province.
Mr.. Mitchell has sent to the Ameri-
can museum several rare animals
which he obtained in remote parts of
the Chinese empire.
