museum in Edmonton. while the
skeleton was forwarded to the Ma
tiOnal Museum in Washington. The
skeleton and the skull are fine speci-
mems, and the skeleton is probably the
only one of a wild buffalo in any mu-
scum.
The existence of this race of buff
falo has been asserted by hunters and
travellers in this portion of the great
west, and many have been the opin-
ions of naturalists as to the relations
Dof this so-called wood buffalo to that
of the plains. Until recently the SUBJ

hunters stories.
Discovers Wood Buffalo.
DR.. Cerritts Miller, curator of the
/ department of mammals of the Unit
ed States National museum. and one
| of the worlds greatest authorities
says that the credit for establishing
as a fact the existence of wood buf-
/ falo belongs to Samuel Nicholson
Rhodes. a life member of the Acad-
emy of Natural Sciences of Philadel-
| phia, who has collected museum
/ specimens of natural history in every
state of the Union, Canada, Mexico
and South America
| In a paper prepared for the Phila.
/ delphia Academy of Natural Science:
/ in 1897, Rhodes gave the result OF
/ his extended search through all lit.
/ erature touching on the subject, and
/ also gave the result of his examina'
I tions of a specimen of the Canadian
I wood bison. This description con
( vinced him. and most scientific men
/ that the wood bison and the Ameri
can prairie bison are of different var
ieties.
The records of the department o
mammals of the National museum
show that Dr. William r. Hornaday
director of the New York geological
park, i'm his monograph on the Am
erican bison. written in 1887 whil'
he was chief taxidermist of the Ma
tionsl Museum at Washington. refused
10 assent to the claim that the WOO,
bison belonged to a different rae
from the American prairie bison.
At that time DR.. Hornaday ha'
never seen a wood bison. and. in tn
absence of facts based on persona
observation. he contended there wa
not the slightest ground for believ
ing that the wood buffalo is entities
to rank even as variety OF the bisol

lapse of negro waiter in the Rogers
Hotel cafe last night.
Mr.. Gates, who figured recently in
another cafe episode in Minneapolis,
was in the Rogers with friends. His
dinner check amounted to about 800.
Mr.. Gates called the waiter. pulled
out a roll of thousand-d dollar bills,
slipped off the top one and said:
Here. boy, keep the change for your
self"
"Why, Mistah Gates. did yo'-all
know that was a thousand-d -dollah
bill?" gasped the astonished negro.
"Yes, sure" said Gates; that's all
right. Just keep the change, any
way"
Whereupon the Gates party left the
cafe. The waiter reported the facts
to the manager. turned 5000 over to
him and the cafe mailed Mr.. Gates a
check for the amount.
