DEADW00D He May Present it to the National Mnsenm A Vehicle With an Inter esting History. Washington Special, 15th, to Baltimore San. Uol. W. F. Cody, known over the world as "Buffalo Bin,7' is consid erine the advisability of present ing his famous Deadwood coach to jLnanuuHi mujeum. no ia m le ouy ior a iew uaja iu lue m terest or the i . . .. . online auu otuer nates oi toe West "and has been a familiar fig- ore at the capitol this week. This morning be visited the National Museum and bad a long talk witb several officials of tbe iustitutiou. When seen by the Sun corres poudeDt at tbe New Willard he admitted that tbe object of bis visit to the museum was to confer with tbe officials regarding a pro position to have bim donate tbe coach to ;the collection. Iu tbe past few months the museum au- tborities have corresponded witu him about the coach, but he has been loath to part with it, although be desires to ultimately present it to some institution. Before he beard from tbe Natioual Museum be contemplated haviug a large i , . . . . . . . . . glass case maue, IU WlllUU uc miSui le at his home iu Cody, Wyoming. I have not reached any decision regarding tbe douation, after I return to Wyoming I will do so.' 'Strangely enough," Col. Cody said, "the National Museum has no stagecoach ot tie type used in t'ie west vears ago in its wonder- ful collection ot locomotives ano vehicles of transportation. There is an old prairie schooner, but no stagecoach. They are getDing scarce now. 'I have seveu or eight of tbein, but none so historic and interesting as tbe old Deadwood coacb. In addition to the fact that it figured in many thrilling affairs in the west, it has a doubly inter esting history from the fact that every crowned bead of burope uas ridden within or upou it. "The Deadwood coach, be con tinned, "is one of the old Concord type. It was built in 1863 by Ab bot Dowuev & Co., of Concord, Vt It is numbered, aud the records show it was shipped around the Horn to a California firm. It was uoeof500 contracted lor io that year. Trace of it was lost for some timo. In 11 years it had worked its way across the country troui California to Wyoming, where it was found running in 1874 on tne stage line between Cbeyeune, VVy omiug, find tbe B ack Hills, South Dakota. At that time it was treasure coach.' In 1874, "75 and '76 it vas nsed to trausport gold from the Black Hill mines to tbe Union Pacific railroad. Ou that route it figured in many fight with the Sioux Indians, the great est of which was in the early- spring of 1876, during what was known as tbe Hat ureeK or uon nett Creek fight. The coach wa ai tacked by some of the younger Sioux Indiaus aud 11 men wer killed defending lhe coacb witbi aud without the vehicle. I wante a historic coach and picked up tb Deadwood coacb; which was prao tical v abandoned shortly: attc the Bonpett Creek fight." , Col. Cody referred to ihe .cou trasts in he life of tbe.old Tehiele A democratic institution in every respect, typically American and identified with one of the most in teresting pages of American his tory, the developmeut of the west, it bad served as a coach for the crowned heads of monarchical Eu rope aud ranked with royal coach es of the continent as a relic. "The Princess or Wales, now Queen Alexandra," said Col. Cody, was the first royal personage to ride in it. She set the fashion. Her innovations have for years been followed all over England. In the year 1887 when the show was in Englaud she expressed a desire to occupy a seat in the coach. IJer request was granted. i r . . Wifli lia. nnSk , J . . ,. " tc V uu? aiiu lwo tiauyuieia. x urove tne Dorses. This started a fad and all tbe lime we were in Englaud members of the nobility and royalty rode in the coach. We booked engage ments for weeks ahead. On another occasion the Prince of Wales commanded' that I drive the coach for four gentlemen who were examining it curiously. The gentlemen entered while I mount ed to the box. Tbe Prince of Wales asked to be allowed to sit beside me while I drove. A band of Sioux Indiaus chased us around the enclosure and the entire party of five enjoyed the experience . wonderfully. After the ride the Prince of Wales said to me: I suppose you never had the pleas ure of holding four kings?" This reference to the national game led me to reply: 'Yes, I have often held four kings, but never four kings witb the royal joker at tbe same time.' I was introduced to the four distinguished personages who rode in tbe coacb. Thev were eopold, King of tbe Belgians, King of Saxony, King George of Greece, and King Oscar of Nor way and Swedeu. Col. Cody still wears the large laniond studded bisou head stickpin in bis necktie that was presented to bim by the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia in 1872. The Grand Duke met Col. Cody in he west and was introduced by him to the pleasures of Buffalo hunting. On his return to the east the Eussiau had Tiffauy make the buflalo pin. Shortlv after ward Ctd Cody came east and the papers facetiously remarked that be came to purchase a white shirt n hich to wear it in. Col Cody went to the White House this afternoon to call to tbe attention of the President the de population of baby elk in the Yel- owstoue National Faik. "All hunters know this. I know t because I buut there every fall " said Col. Cody. "President Roose velt is a hnuter and appreciates what it means. There are many elk and wapiti in the park. There are mauy black bears, which are oo the iucrease. The bears do not find as much to eat as formerly and satisfy their hunger by de stroying tbe baby elk. Something should be done to prevent the ex tinction of these fine animals, even f the tears have to be killed off to a large extent." A Difference About tbe Baking of Hoe- cake. Southern Pines Cerrespondence Charlotte ODserver, , At Pinehnrst Saturday a young dentist quarreled and struck bis wife. Tbe trouble was caused by a difference of opinion regarding the hnking of boecake, she con tending that the Northern way was the best and he declared for tbe Southern way. The moment ous question could not be settled by arbitration so force was nsed, in which he struck bis wife and she resorted to hair pulling. The result w.is that be was taken to Carthage and placed behind the bars. But the wife, repenting at leisure, forgave the small offense and paid tbe fine. BLOWN TO ATOMS.
