The Yellowstone Is In Danger.
The Next Congress Must Aid the Nation's Great
Park.—Railways Are Threatening It.—Cor-
porations Wish to Make it a Source af Profit-
Poachers Are Killing the Buffalo and Other
Animals— The History of the Park—Its Su-
perb National Beauties.
Will the new Congress do something
for the preservation of the Yellowstone
Park ? A critical point in the history of
that national reservation has been reach-
ed. Railroads represented at Washing-
ton by agents with plenty of money to
back them are trying to procure legisla-
tive authority for the invasion of its
sacred precints. Meanwhile poachers,
against whom no adequate protection is
provided by law, are killing the buffalo,
bears and elk, and openly selling the
meat of those animals in the settlements
on the outskirts of the Park. No jury
can be got to convict them, because it is
a first principle with the frontiersmen
that wild game is public property and
belongs to the hunter, wherever it
may be found.
The whole question is to be brought
up before Congress at its next session.
Incidentally will be developed some
important and hitherto. unpublished
facts in what may fairly be termed =
geographical romance.
Not the least remarkable character in
the romance is John Colter, who was
attached to the expedition of Lewis and
Clark. In August, 1806, he was dis-
charged at his own request, going back
to his business of hunting and trapping
on the headwaters of the Missouri. He
bad a companion pamed John Potts.
The two men were captured by Indians,
who killed Potts. They stripped Col-
ter naked and allowing him a start of a
few yarks gave him a race for life over
ground that was covered with prickly
pear. Almost miraculously he escaped
and made his way toa trading post
which had been newly established on
the Yellowstone by Manuel de Lisa.
Subsequently he pursued his travels to-
wards what is now the northwest cor-
ner of Wyoming and entered the park,
being the first white man to behold that
strange region. It was he who discov-
ered Yellowstone Lake the central fea-
ture of the park. which has fifty miles
of a shore line.
—
Colter’s trail, as dotted on Captain
Clark’s map of - 1814, shows that he
made & complete circuit of the lake.
Accordingly to him must be given the
credit of having discovered the source
of the Yellowstone river, which takes
its rise from the lake. After a while
Colter got back toSt. Louis and there
he told such remarkable yarns that he
was dubbed the monumental liar of the
Rocky Mountains. He spoke of a re-
gion visited by him where the whole
country was sfire and where great
springs of boiling water threw, streams
high into the air, while the v ry earth
seemed to smoke as far as the eye could
reach. Yet all that he said was sub-
stantially correct and true. A locality
in the Yellowstone Park is known as
- Colter’s Hell, and any visitor witha
little imagination may readily faney it
to be actually an entrance to the infer-
nal domain of Pluto.
In his peregrinations about Yellow-
stone Lake Colter also fell upon some of
the sources of Snake or Lewis’ river, the
mightest branch of the great Columbia
which reaches the Pacific Ocean. The
Columbia, by the way, in 1767 was
first called the river of the Oregon by
Jonathan Carver, who made the absurd
mistake of locating its sources close to
those of the Mississippi—that is to say,
not far from Lake Itasca. Before going
further it is necessary to take a few
steps backward in order to find the be-
ginning of the geographical romance in
ithe origin of the name Yellowstone.
Dr. Coues has succeeded recently in
fracing the name back to a date unre-
corded by published histories,
So
In 1738 a gentleman who was known
as Le Sieur de la Verendrye—proprie-
tor by royal grant of a siegnory in Can-
ada—with an expedition numbering
about fifty men visited the town of the
Mandans on the Missouri river for pur-
pose of discovery and trade. These
towns were oppesite each other and on
the banks of the Missouri, near the pres-
ent site of Bismarck, capital of North
Dakota. While in that locality Veren-
drye heard from the Indians of a great
river, a branch of the Missouri, which,
as they translated itinto French, was
called the Pierre Jaune or Roche Jaune
—meaning Yellow Stone or Yellow
Rock. This, so far'asit is known, rep-
resents the very beginning of the
white man’s acquaintance with the Yel-
lowstone river and its name. The
credit due to Verendrye in this regard
has been secured for him by the re-
searches of Dr. Coues. Verendrye soon
afterwards sent out an exploring party
which is credibly believed to have close-
ly approached, if it did not reach, the
Yellowstone river.
In December, 1797, the celebrated
English traveler, astronomer and sur-
veyor, David Thompson, visited the
Mandans. He heard of the river, and
with no other guide than information
furnished by the Indians, made an
audacious attempt to calculate the geo-
graphical position of its sources. Said
Dr. Coues yesterday : “I have inspect-
ed his original manuscript now in the
archives of the Crown Lands Depart-
ment of Ontario, at Toronto, and I find
that he fixed the sources with a proba-
ble error of less than twenty miles, giv-
ing latitude and longtitude in minutes
and seconds. This may justly be con-
sidered as one of the most astonishing
feats on record. It was a bappy guess,
but it took a David Thompson to make
such a guess. His manuscript, dated
1798, contains the word Yellowstone—
used there for the first time in English,
go far as I am aware. To this day the
river is called the Rocke Jaune by the
Canadian voyageur.”
Lewis and Clark wintered at the
Mandans in 1804-5. They heard of the
river, of course. Under date of Apnl
7, 1805, Captain Lewis wrota a letter to
President Thomas Jefferson on the sub-
ject, which was laid before Congress
February 19, 1806. Probably the first
official use of the name Yellowstone
was in the communication made by the
President to Congress based on this let-
ter.
In 1806 Captain Z. M. Pike was sent
by the government to discover the
sources of the Arkansas river. While
at the head waters of the Arkansas he
conceived a wild notion concerning the
Yellowstone, whose sources he repre-
sents on the map, published in 1810, as
close by the sources of the Arkansas.
On this map, however, is found, for the
first, the Spanish name for the Yellow-
lowstone—Piedro Amarillo del Mis-
souri, which being translated, signifies
the Yellowstone of the Missouri. Pike
was not acquainted with the Spanish
language and so it is presumed that he
borrowed the name from some earlier
Spanish authority. The Indian basis of
all the names was in the Hidatsa lan-
guage.
The first explorer of the Yellowstone
was William Clark, co-partner with
Lewis in the famous expedition. He
parted from the expedition near Mis-
soula, Mo., with a few men and struck
the Yellowstone at a point where the
town otf Livingston is now located.
From Livingston the railway runs to
the National Park, Clark followed the
river at its mouth, whore it joins the
Missouri at Fort Budford.
Not the least important use of the
Yellowstone Park is to preserve certain
species of mammals which are rapidly
becoming extinct elsewhere in the Uni-
ted States. All through its valleys
roams a herd of 400 buffalo. They rep-
resent the only hope of the survival of
the American bison. Is left undisturb-
ed by man they would suffice in time to
repopulate the great plains with these
mighty beasts. Tney are as tame as
cattle and are permitted to wander as
they list,their choice of headquarters
being in the Hayden Valley. They
have plenty of room for the reservation
covers an area of about 2,600 square-
miles. Of elk, which are nearly extinct
elsewhere, the number in the Park is
estimated at from 8,000 to 25,000.
There are plenty of bears, grizzly,
brown, cinnamon and black, the last-
named being most common. In winter
they hibernate in caves and hollow
trunks of trees. Antelopes they are al-
£0, and porcupines, as well as beaver,
which have been well-nigh extermina-
ted in other parts of the country.
The poachers who prey on ‘the ani-
mals at the Park are absolutely ruthless,
having no end in view but indiscrimi-
nate slaughter. They massacre the elk
for their horns, which are worth from
$10to0 $75 a po. Amateur hunters
buy them for the purpose of exhibiting
them as alleged trophies of their own
prowess in the chase. The antlers be-
ing shed once a year, many of them are
picked up and are stained and polished
to render them marketable ; but it is
difficult to procure in this way a pair
that will match. Buffalo hides, former-
ly so cheap, now fetch a good price,
and a good head of a buffalo stuffed
and mounted is worth $150 or $200.
The demand has given rise to the in-
dustry of making artificial buffalo heads
out of a papier mache, the dyed fur of
other animals, and et ceteras.
Two companies of cavalry are sta-
tioned at the Park, under command of
Captain George S. Anderson and Cap-
tain George L. Scott, Captain Ander-
son is superintendent. It would hardly
be possible to find another man so cap-
able as he to perform the difficult duties
of his position, for he is obliged to en-
force order without adequate authority
of law. The government of the reser-
vation is vested in the Secretary of the
Interior, who makes such regulations as
he sees fit. But Congress has refused
again to meke the laws required for pro-
tection against poaching and for the
punishment of depredators. Whenever
measure to this end are brought up at
Washington, they are opposed and de-
feated by lobbyists employed by the
railways, which will not permit them
to ge: through unless they carry their
own schemes with them.
Under present conditions all that can
be done is to lock the poachers up for a
few days when caught and confiscate
their weapons and outfit. A law does
provide that nobody shall bring fire-
arms into the reservation. The tourist,
however, may obtain special permis-
sion to carry a gun through the Park
by submitting the weapon to the super-
intendent and having a wax seal put
upon the lock and trigger. This seal is
only to be moved by the authorities sub-
sequently, and for the owner to disturb
iv is an offense rendering him liable to
arrest and to the confiscation of his out-
fit. Meanwhile the poaching goes on,
and bear meat and buffalo meat are
publicly sold in the neighboring settle-
ments. Fish are permitted to be caught,
but not for sale. A body of water in
the reservation was named Lake Abun-
dance, because it contained such quan-
tities of trout. Along came some peo-
ple who thought it would be fun to ex-
plode some dynamite in the lake. just
to see what would happen the fish. All
of the trout were killed and there have
been none there since. Vandals are
fond of writing their names in lead-
pencil on the geyser deposits. Subse-
quently layers of the deposit cover up
the names and preserve them.
There is not the slightest occasion for
a railway in the Yellowstone Park.
The present arrangements of the North-
ern Pacific are all that could be desired
for the purpose of landing passengers on
the edge of the reservation and convey-
ing them over beautiful roads. The su-
perb carriage road was built by Lieu-
tenant Hiram M, Chittenden, of the
United States Topographical Engineers.
He is preparing an exhaustive history
of the Park, which will set at rest many
matters now in dispute—notably the
question as to the originator of the idea
of setting apart the reservation, for
which honor there have been numerous
claimants. To ncne of these claimants
does he give the coveted credit, but car-
ries it further back to the real author of
the scheme
It is hardly necessary to say that more
wonders of nature are to be found in
the Yellowstone Park than are assem-
bled anywhere else in the world. There
is no other sich region of geysers. Of
these are thousands within the limits of
the reservation, representing extinct
volcanoes. At Fire Hole Basin, where
the Gibbon river joints the Madison
river, the whole country seems to be on
fire. Saye Dr. Coues :
“Who ever heard of taking a vapor
hath in u snowstorm ? I have stood in
the middle of Hell’s Half Acre in a
blinding snowstorm, at the same time
enveloped in vapor as hot as I could
bear it and unable to see twenty feet. I
have looked down into a crater that was
like the corolla of a morning-glory, with
cerulean amethystine acd ruby hues
blended. The Falls of the Yellowstone
are among the most magnificent in this
country. The Grand Canyon of the
Yellowstone, though not the largest in
the United States, being greatly sur-
passed in that respect by the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado, is one of the
most extraordinary freaks on this conti-
nent, I have stood at the bottom of
the Grand Canyon of Colorado, 6,000
feet below the surface of the earth with-
out experiencing the emotion which
the Yellowstone Canyon excites.”’—The

The Farmers’ Department.
Bill Creating It Approved by the Governor.
Tuesday afternoon of last week
Governor ~~ Hastings sent to the
house the approval of the bill creating a
department of agriculture. The gover-
nor has a communication from L. H.
Rhone, worthy master of the state
grange, in which he gives a statement
of the expenses of the new department,
as follows :
Salary of secretary, $3,500 ; salary of
deputy-secretary, $3,000 ; salary of eco-
nomist zoologist, $2,500 ; salary of for-
estry commissioner, $2,500; salary of
veterinary surgeon, $2,500; salary of
chief clerk, $1,600; salaries of two
clerks, $3,000; stenographer. $800;
messenger, $600; farmers institutes,
$7,000. Total, $27,000.
The senate committee on education
has reported favorably the Farr compul-
sory educational bill.
The resolution providing for a com-
mittee to investigate the charges of cru-
elty and incompetent management made
against the managers of the Warren asy-
lum was reported favorably the next
day.
The house educational committee to-
day considered the bill providing for the
removal of the normal school from Ed-
inboro, Erie county. Arguments on
both sides were advanced, and Prof.
Benedict, who is now in charge of the
school, addressed the committee, show-
ing that the school is progressing and
growing in public favor. The commi t-
tee reported against the removal of the
school from Edinboro, which will re-
main the permanent location of the nor-
mal school of the Twelfth district.
Senator Wood’s bill authorizing
municipal corporations to purchase
water works from private companies was
reported favorably from the house
judiciary general committee.
The bill abolishing the public build-
ings commission of Philadelphia was
reported favorably to the senate.
x-State Treasurer Morrison, whose
friends have been active in getting him
a lucrative place under the Hastings ad-
ministration, has been notified of his ap-
pointment as deputy bank examiner
under Colonel Gilkeson.
Hayward Must Die.
He Can Have Three Months Longer, Then
Hangs. ’
MinNEAPoLIs, March 19.—Harry T.
Hayward, convicted of the murder of
Catharine Ging, has three months to
live. Sentence was passed on him by
Judge Seagrave Smith after a motion
for an arrest of sentence by Mr. Erwin
had been denied. Harry came into the
court in the same leisurely calm man-
ner that has characterized his denfeanor
all through the trial and surveyed the
crowd coldly while the handcuffs were
being removed. Judge Smith agreed to
examine the grounds for a new trial on
March 28 and then passed sentence. He
said he had no doubt whatever that the
verdict was a just and righteous one,
and while he did not believe in capital
punishment it wus his painful duty to
‘ pass sentence in accordance with the
law.
“The sentence of this court,” he con-
tinued, ‘is that you be taken to the
Hennepin county jail and there confined
until, after a period of three months, a
time be fixed by the governor of this
state, you be taken to the place of exe-
cution and hanged by the neck until
you are dead.
Harry listened calmly and sat down
without the slightest show of feeling.
Brought Back from Kansas.
Harry Gregg, a 14-year-old incorri-
gible, who escaped from Morganza a
year ago, was bronght back yesterday
by Deputy Sheriff Pryor, of Douglas
county, Kan. Gregg was jailed there
in December for breaking into a gro-
cery store.

A Goop TESTIMONIAL.—*I have had
for 27 years past, a badly diseased ankle
bone. Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite
Remedy and his Salt Rheum Cream
healed it when all other medicines had
tailed, and medical authority had said
the limb could never be used again.
A sore broke out on the ankle bone,
and for 10 months the aged writer suf-
fered day and night beyond the power
of words to express. A friend advised
me to try Dr. David Kennedy’s Favor-
ite Remedy. I had no faith that any
medicine would help me. buat suffering
as I did I thought I would try it. and
urchased some, also a box of Dr.
avid Kennedy’s Salt Rheum Cream.
I used these medicines but a short time
when my limb began to heal. I will
further add, among the many medicines
{ have tried for a diseased liver and kid-
neys, none has ever proved so helpful to
me as Favorite Remedy. By stimula-
ting and strengthening the enfeebled
organs, even the encroachments of ad-
vanced age seem to be checked by its in-
vigorating power.
1 have thoroughly tested its true
worth, and I knew whereof I affirm,
hoping all who read this will profit
thereby, as the aged writer has, by us-
ing Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite
Remedy, been given very comfortable
health for a person of 70 years of age.
Favorite Remedy is an invaluable medi-
cine for children as well as adults.
