Turns Toward New Mexico. The
Land In Which They Once Lived.
Formerly Subsisted by Pillage
and Plunder.
Tho Klckapoo Indians nre leaving
tetr reHt'ivatlon near Shawnee, and
rgo parties of them are going every
eek to New Mexico. These partlcu
r IndiaiiH are known lu the govern
ent records as Mexican Kickapoos,
icause of the land In which they once

sixteen scalps down either side,

CATTLEOE3 A SUCCESS.
They Inherit a Great Many of the
Traits Of the Buffalo.
Mr. C. J. rnuffalo") Jones, ot To
peka, Kan., game warden of the Yel
lowstone National Park, was In Wash
ington lately to file his report with the
Interior Department.
Mr. Jones Is Interested in tho breed
ing of "cattleoes," or the cross bo
tween bulTalo and domestic cattle. Do
mestic cattle have to be fed and
boused (luring the long, cold winters
of the northwest, but the "cattleoes"
Inherit the traits of the buffalo In tho
respect that they require no feeding or
shelter in the Dakota winters, pawing
up the snow and eating tho dry grass
underneath. In the spring they fat
tun rapidly on the young grass, and
can be thus prepared for market at
one-half the cost of cattle.
Mr. Jones called on the President
and showed him a robe taken from a
"cattleo." The color Is black, with a
beautiful reddit-h gray, lu places near
ly white, shading on the back, and a
black dorsal stripe. The under parts
were pure white, so that tho robe
lot d:ed very much ad if it were trim
med with ermine.
President Roosevelt grently admired
the robe, and expressed the opinion
that tho Government should by all
means establish an experimental
ranch for tho breeding of "cattleoes."
In Ui()2 Congress appropriated $14.-
000 with which to establish a herd of
domesticated buffalo at the Yellow
stone. At the same time, Mr. Jones
was placed In charge of the work, and
as warden of the park he purchased
twenty-one animals and placed them
In the reservation, under fence. Al
ready the herd has been increased to
twenty-eight.
"In addition to this herd," Mr. ,Tone3
said: "There are thirty-three wild
buffalo in the park. I at first had an
Idea of getting these animals In with
the tame buffalo, but they are the
wildest things I ever saw. The mo
ment they see or smell a man they
are o(T like a shot, and if captured
would surely kill themselves in half
an hour's time by their efforts to
escape. Therefore, to protect these
animals I am simply picking up their
calves ns fast as they ore born and
turning them in with tho tamo herd.
1 have thus far secured four wild
calves in this way."
Mr. Jones has been quite busy the
past winter and fall months killing
mountain lions, or pumas, of the Yel
lowstone, which have become alto
gether too numerous. lie had Ms
pockets full of claws of these animals,
which he kept, he said, na trophies
of his pmna hunts. r.altlmore Sun.
Mountain Gosts.
From a point neatly 7,000 feet be
low an observer with a good glass oc
casionally may make out against the
rock shelf a something which looks
not unlike a white rabbit sitting upon
its haunches. In reality it is au an
cient Hilly, roughly speaking, as big
as two fine rams and bearded like a
prophet. His shaggy white coat knows
neither spot nor curl, his daggerlike
horns are ebon black and his topac
ejes have In them that cold, Inscruta
ble expression, something of which
we see in the eyes of an eagle and a
snake.
They arc marvels, these thonght
cencealing yellow eves. Perchance
they kindle a more baleful light when
love's lamp Hares and a snowy rival

yanis away. It may be they soften
when a limber legged kid caroms
Rgainst the paiernal ribs or rams his
over-sized head liir::ug'i the paternal

for the topaz itself Is not colder or
more unchanging than the windows
of the souls of a husky mountain
Hilly.

knows, that no enemy will come down
upon him, all his precautions are di
rected against possibilities from be
low. I fancy, too, that he trusts al
most to his eyes, that his nose lacks
that wonderful keenness characteris
tic of the deer tribo and that his ears
play lltt.la part In the protective game.
This latter is mainly surmise, based
upon the fact that the worst noise
a ft 1 11 hunter would be apt to make
would be the rattle of a displaced
f.tone, which Is a thiig the goats often
hear and doubtless thoroughly under
stand. When one's object of pursuit is an
enimnl which dwells far up the moun
tains, which keeps a prety close watch
upon all visible lower territory, but
seldom bothers its head ubout what
may be going on above and behind,
one's wisest plnn of campaign, natur

by an attack from above. Illustrated

INDIAN TCRRITORY SKUNKS.
I
Wealthy New Yorker Backs an In
dustry for Their Fur.
i Among the new Industries estno
lished In the Indian Territory there
are none more novel than the "skutiK
farm" Just two miles southwest of
Herbert. Tho Industry is backed by
a wealthy New Yorker who has mnde
a fortune in the fur trade, says the
Kansas City Journal.
This "farm," as it is called, consists
of about twenty acres Inclosed with a
stone wall five feet high, located along
a rough mountain side with natural
overhanging rocks being iwt ideal place
for rattlesnakes and polecat dens. The
neighborhood Is said to bo Infested
with all kinds of reptiles, and by tho
establishment of this skunk farm the
promoters claim they will make
money.
"Tip" Lewis, who will have charge
of the farm, is a noted hunter and
trapper, and those who know him Ray
he really enjoys the work of skinning
polecats. He has made a livelihood of
the work for twenty-two years, and
now that a real breeding farm has
been established, he Is assured of
plenty of work In his ll.no.
In conversation recently "Tip" had
the following to say of the novel In
dustry: "We propose to cross the
breeds of polecats until we get them
nil of one color, cither white or black,
and by proper care we hope to en
tirely get rid of the offensive odor.
Every polecat carries a muck bag for
protection and when tamed and cross
ed with the civet cat they lose this
weapon. Their fur can be Improved
by cultivation and Interbreeding with
other animals."
When asked about the much adver
tised "skunk oil," Mr. Lewis said:
"I believe skunk oil will cure many
Ills, such as rheumatism and other ail
ments, but the musk, which Is so odo
riferous and nffcvnslvc is a cure for al
most any Ills flesh is heir to. It will
keep away disease, and I believe it
will cure consumption In the earlier
stages."
Mr. Lewis says that each polocat
will raise from five to eight kittens
every year, and he proposes to catch
about 300 cats and kittens nnd place
them on tl. ' farm. Fkunlc skins are
now worth from 00 cents to $1.2.", and
hy Improving the breed they hope to
get double this price for the skins.
Horsy Drips Out of Wall.
The honey in tho wi ll of the home
of Dr. C. H. Brooke, of Brooklyn, Anne
Arundel County, Is still dripping. So
far about three or four gallons have
been caught In the pnas and buckets
placed under the drip.
About twelve years ngo Dr. Brooke
erected on addition to his house and
a swarm of bees bu'lt a i'St between
tho walls, having found an opening.
No atention was paid to them nt first,
but they finally became a nuisance.
They have stored nway great quanti
ties of honey in combs, nnd In some
inr.nner one of the combs must havo
been punctured and the honey allowed
to drip out. Thohoney is not being used
In the family of Dr. Brooke, as it ban
gathered dust nnd dirt in Its way out
of the wall.
Tho bees hnve been a great sourco
of trouble to tho family of Dr. Brooke.
At meal times they would swiirm out
on the table and compel the diners to
drive them away and kill numbers of
them.
The nuisance became so unbearable
after a while that Dr. Brooke decided
j to exterminate them. He has removed
part of the wall and in so do'ng It Is
; thought that tho honeycombs were
i punctured. Baltimore Sun.
Vake Me Up When Klrby Dies.
Your "Old Bowery Frequenter" In
to-day's Press is quite right about tho
origin of the saying "Wake me up
when Kirby dies." It is over fifty
years ago since "Tom" Hamblin was
tho proprietor and likewise one of
the principal actors In the old Bowery
Theatre, New York. lie was noted
for the spectacular and Intensely pa
triotic plays which he produced for
the benefit of the Bowery boys espe
cially; plays abounding In patriotic
speeches and "blood and thunder."
Among his actors was one named Klr
by, who was usually given a conspicu
ous pare In said play. Kirby was
great In the speeches I have mention
ed, but his great forte was In tho
last act, when after performing prodi
gies of valor, he would wrap (he
American flag around him, fire off two
pistols and die all over the stage.
These finales were great things for the
boys, and If they felt drowsy during
tho earlier part of the performance, as
some of thehi were apt to be, they
would carefully charge their com
panions to "Wake me up when Kirby
dies."
This was the true origin of the well
known saying. Letter In Philadel
phia Press.

LIFE IN PERU.
Experiences of American In the MIn
i Ing Regions.
A letter to a friend In this city
from K. K. Bottenus, a Cincinnati boy,
who Is engaged In mining In Peru,
tells of his recent explorations of an
unknown part of that country's Inte
rior. Leaving the Santa Domingo
mine. In the heart of the eastern slope
of the Andes range, the pnrty started,
under Mr. Bot.enus's command, to
find a forest of rubber trees for tho
company's exploitation. Mr. Bottenus
writes:
"Our pnrty consisted of myself, five
other while men, three Peruvians and
ten Indian qnlpc res. Nine of us were
armed with carbines and slxshoolers.
As we expected, In view of my experi
ence In the Inst expedition, to encount
er hostile savag 's. It was noccssarv to
keep our pnrty intact and alao carry
our supplies with us. Since we had
some .1,000 poun h of provisions, you
can imagine to transport these on our
backs over a rough country was not
easy. Our f.rst task was to ford a
river. That sime day we killed a
cou' le of monk' ys big fellows, which
i would Hand threo foot high and
: tome pheasants, and also dynamited
some fish In the river. The monkeys
i we gave to the Indians, who, after
I once tasting them, nte them with great
I gusto. It Is ml her hard for a white
I man to e.ioy a repast of monkey st"w,
I unless he becomes very hungry, when,
without n doubt. It Is most palatable.
The taste of the moat Is not nt all
bad, but after t!;i.nnlng them the mon
kys look so much like human babies
that one scruples ns to whether or
not he Is practising cannibalism.
"Alter geting down seven miles we
ran across another big river, which 1
afterward named the 'Surprise River.,
We were surprised a day ufti r our ar
rival on tho river by a visit from the
Chunchos, or native savage. We ex
pected to (i.ntl them hostile, hut found
them to be friendly In the extreme.
They are armed with bows anil ar
rows, these being from four to seven
feet long, varying In size for hoys nnd
men. The workmanship on the arrows
Is very neat, especially when one con
siders that the only tools which they
have are such as they can fashion
from rocks. They nre very skilful
with the bow nnd arrow at a distance
of twenty-five or forty yards. They
shoot their game, their fish, even
tigers, with these weapon1;. The ar
rows do not weight four ounces and
are constructed of nothing but wood,
the Fhaft being a light hamboo and the
head bing a species of 'palmetto'
called 'ehunta.' Their clothes are a
very pronounced decollete; all that
the men wear Is a sleeveless shirt
coming below tho loins, the same be
ing made from the bark of a tree. The
women are not nearly so well pro
vided for, wearing g"nerally but a
small loin cloth. We bail taken the
precaution to bring some gaudy arti
cles as presents with us, In the shppo
of gewgaws of many descriptions,
which we distributer, but they gave
us to nnder:-tand by means of signs
what they would particularly like
v.TF an ax, a machete, or knives, or ar
ticles of any kind that would cut.
Smart Sayings to Order.
"There are lots at people who are
naturally quick nnd witty In ordinary
rorversutlon, but the man who can be
bo'.h at a gathering Is not as numer
ous ns you nay think," said a man nt
a dinner uptown n few nights ago.
"I was a.sked a few days ago to come
here and say something. I am not a
speaker, either before, a;, or after the
feist. I said so to the man who urged
me to come. Then he told me that if
I wanted to say anything, and didn't
feel quite up to the job, as he put It,
he could put me on to n man who
mnde such things a business. I was
curious to know more, ami asked the
committeeman who the manufacturer
of and dealer In wit was. He said to
mo, 'I'll call him right here,' nnd he
did. Then I realized that what the
man had said to me was dead earnest.
After he had got the 'dealer' on the
'phone, nnd told him what he wanted,
he turned to mo and said, 'He wants
to know if you want to talk In prose
or doggerel, or if you want some Jokes,
and whether you want the Jokes on the
raw, or something that would do for a
lady's party?'
"Then I quit. I would not havo
believed that If it had been told as a
Btery. And I am sorry enough about
It, for every time anybody has said
anything smart or funnv here to-ntL'ht
I have wondered whether it wns man- I

European Buyers Arc Wailing lor Rush ol
Product to American Markets.
As wheat prices go down it mav
be expected that the tide of experts
wi'.l rise. European buyers have
been fully advised that this country
and Manitoba will have a large sur
plus for export, and thus far since
the crop year began they have been
disposed to await the effect of the
completed harvests and the early
rush of receipts upon American
markets.
Domestic values are now very
near the point where they should
stimulate more active foreign buy
ing. The crop is large, but the
growers are more prosperous than
ever before, and therefore less anx
ious to hurry their wheat to market
unless they can get a fair price for
it. Any check to the movement of
wheat from farmers' hands at this
stage of the season would be likely
to induce speculation for a rise in
prices and delay the revival of ex
port business, for which the condi
tions are now more fn
I at any time since the 1903 crop wa

Since the first visit to the ice cap
of the South Pole was made, some
fifty years ago, there has been a
steady recession of the belt of some
30 miles, nnd it is argued that in
the course of time it will bo possible
to make approach to the Pole itscli,
and that the land in that vicinity
may even become inhabited.
