Long Bow of Pioneer, Jim Bridger,
With Some of His Wild Narratives

Jim Bridger, the famous pioneer
whose career in the west antedates
the wonderful discoveries Of gold in
Grasshopper and Alder gulch, which
brought gold hunters by the thous-
ands from all points of the compass
and was the start Of Montana's de-
yelopment, knew more about the west
of so years ago than any other man.
In search Of adventure he had biased
trails from the Platte to the Missouri.
Much of his time was spent in Mon
tana where the beaver, from which he
derived a livelihood, and the buffalo
which furnished him with sustenance
abounded. After John Golfer he was
the first white man known to have Wis
tied the Yellowstone National park, his
personal knowledge of the wonderland
dating back to 1929, or IS years ago.
Bridger had seen many wonderful
things in the west, of which he told
his friends, but the public was inclined
to doubt his veracity. So, when he tried
to inform his acquaintance on the
lower Missouri, where he would 60 &C.
casionally with a boat load of furs
of the scenic marvels of the Yellow
stone park, he was laughed out OF
c~ountenance. That he was inclined to

direction. He found that the mother
duck laid her eggs in the warm water,
which Matched out the young ducks,
and as they freed themselves from the
shells they would pop up to the surface.
The lake was a natural incubator.
Along the shores Of the Yellowstone
lake are several immense springs which
discharge boiling hot water into the
lake. About the place where the hot
water flows into the lake it lies several
feet thick above the cold water, on &C
count Of the difference in specific grav-
ity between the hot and cold water.
Bridger's story was that he would bait
his fish hook, and with weights on his
line, sink it through the hot and into
the cold water. When he had hooked
the trout he would pull it into the hot
water just above and let it remain
there until it was cooked.
These were a few of the stories with
which old Jim Bridger, RECALLED the ten
derfeet living in St. Louis and other
Missouri river towns, on his occasional
trips back to civilization. Because of
them he made a M~anchausen reputa-
ton for himself. So when he told the
world of the wonders of the Yellowstone
park, along in 1885, his story of the

local areas, particularly in western
Colorado and Arizona, range continued
poor over most western states. Western
miIlfeed markets were somewhat r.
regular. Linseed meal prices declined
sharply but cottonseed meal and soy
bean meal were firm. Tankage prices
were mostly unchanged; packers e
afforded an opportunity to accumulate
supplies before the heavy feeding sea-
son. Gluten feed and hominy feed de-
clined. Firmness in hay prices stead-
led alfalfa meal. New crop beet pulp
from Colorado will probably appear at
central western markets before the end
of the month.
Hay shows a greater advance in prices
than any staple farm product as COM
pared with last year. Hay prices show
drouth effects in the middle west. It Is
cheapest in the western states and
highest in New England, selling at 81
to s13 per ton on the farm in west
coast and mountain states and around
SIG in New England.

draw a long bow was we'll known, and
the incredible stories he put in circu-
lation discounted his truths, and so he
went about the Baron ManchauSen of
the new west.
One of the stories credited to him
had to do with the celebrated Obsidian
cliff, of black volcanic glass, familiar to
tourists who have visited the park.
Bridger claimed to have discovered it
on a hunting trip. His story was that
one day he was in the park hunting.
He came up to a bull elk of gigantic
proportions which, apparently, was
grazing only a short distance from him.
He took careful aim at the animal and
fired. To his establishment, and he was
a dead shot, the elk did not appear to
have been wounded, and paid no at
tention to the report of the rifle. He
shot again with the same result. Four
times in all he fired, missed each time.
The elk continued to Craze undisturbed.
and paid not the slightest attention to
Bridger. Dumbfounded, he rushed to-
ward the elk, crashing into a wall of
transparent glass. He walked around
the glass cliff, but the elk had disap-
peared. Then he walked back and the
elk was again grazing within a few
feet of him. He repeated the perform
ance with the same result. Several
miles away and just discernible, he saw
his elk. The Obsidian glass, accord
ing to his explanation, was a telescope
lens and brought the elk up to within
a few feet of him.
Bridger also told of a remarkable
echo, near a spot where he frequently
made camp. According to his story, it
took the words thrown against the cliff
just six hours to come back after ut
terance. When he was retiring he
would say to the cliff, Time to get up"
Six hours later, at the time he wished
to arise from his slumbers, his own
words would awaken him.
Bridger also named Alum creek, a
tributary of the Yellowstone. One day
he crossed a creek and rode several
miles out into the prairie. The return
Journey seemed only about half the
distance of his outgoing trip, and his
horse went lame. He dismounted to
look at his animals feet and discover
ed that they had shrunk to pin points.
He tasted some water nearby and found
it heavily charged with alum. He at
tributed the shrinkage Of the distance
and the condition Of his horses feet
to the astrigent qualities of the alum
water, and named the creek accord
ingly. Alum creek it Is to this day.
Another Bridger story was about a
hot lake which he discovered in the
Yellowstone park. Thousands Of young
ducks covered its surface. When he
got to the lake shore he noticed that
every few minutes O young ducks
would pop up out of the water in every

Chicago mostly Csc to 40c lower than
the previous week. Best fed steers
reached $10.25 but sagged from that
level. Stocker and feeder cattle were in
fairly good generous quota and prices
held mostly steady. Cattle receipts de-
creased slightly. The Chicago lamb
market was about steady. The extreme
top was s6.75, the bulk of the more de-
sirable killers going from $6-$6.50 to
packers. The proportion of feeder
lambs was the largest of the season

those of the past two months. Prices
rose during early August both in the
United States and in world markets
but after developments appear to have
placed them back on a rather sound
basis considered in the light of pros
pective supplies. Prices in the United
States may be expected to continue to
be sensitive to uncertainties as to just
what final adjustments will be neces-
sary in view of the rather close balance
between supplies on hand compared
with unusual demand and allowing for
supplies to be carried over. No marked
advance or decline in world market
prices seems in prospect pending more
definite indications as to Russian eX-

Montana's state income tax payers
contributed $lS0,970 to the govern

ings Of 1888. A report recently IN the
operation Of the new law which be-
came effective Jan. 1, 1888, and which
will be submitted to the voters next

the estimated sum of $500, 900 annual
ly to the state government.
The amount reported in collections
represented many returns paid at one
time for the entire year although the
second half payments are due on Oct
Is, the board of equalization explained.
However, Of the total number OF in
come tax returns, $500 were for the full
amount Of the yearly assessment, and
these returns were for an aggregate OF
sos, 900.
OF the aggregate amount reported,
"a, $50 was collected in filing fees at the
rate 70 81 for each return.
