LAWRENCE CHRISTOPHER CHRISS,
BUFFALO HUNTER.
Opinion of Comanche's and Adventure
With Tlirm Skinning nn Iii(!aii. .
A Roach Practical Joke, mid How
Lieutenant Turner Oat Eren With
general Iluell. Z: ' ."V.".
Lawrence Christopher Chriss, an old-
lime buffalo hunter of west Texas, now
living at El Paso, says a correspondent
of the New York Sun, is as full of good
stories as a fig is full of seeds.
Chriss had been known, in years gouo
by, to slay with his trusty rifle not les3
than 1,734 buffalo in one month, and
...i.:i-t' t. 4u i. .
American, bison, be is proud of this feat.
He assertsLthat the buffalo huuteis did
more to make the settlement of this part
' of the country possibly than any other
men. "So long as the buffalo were here, "
lays he, "the Comanches could not be
driven out of the country. " -
-"Buffalo hunting in the "old days war
pretty exciting sport," said Lawrence
Christopher Chriss , to-day, .."but", it
couldn't hold a candle to Comauelko
hunting. The Comauches were the most
cruel, bloodthirsty demons that ever es
caped from hell and settled on the green
rartb,. I remember on one occasion in
the winter of '73-4, that . 10 Comanches
ran across a camp of buffalo hunters and
found there a rouner bov who had been
left while the htfntera were out attending
to business. The Indians destroyed
everything in the camp and killed the
boy. There waa a quantity, of jerked
buffalo meat hanging on the mesquite
trees around the camp. The Indians cut
the boy up and f hung his flesh in slripa"
with the buffalo meat to dry. This was
at Wild Horse Springs, about 20 miles
'tiorth of ;where Midland now is. X was
one of the party of hunters, and when
we got back to camp and saw what had
been done to the boy we started out in a
hurry to run down the Indians. Wo
caught them 40 miles from there and
killed 6eveaof them; One of those we
killed had the boy's scalp arid one of his
ears strung on a string aronnd his neck.
The father of the boy, who was one of
the partyjjyas so enraged that he emp
'. lied his six shooter into the body of. t'ao
dead Indian. That did not satisfy either''
him or tho rest of us; aud Bomeone pro
posed that wo should skin the Indian and
keep his hide to remember him by. We
we're expert skinners, nud it didn't take;

with ft buffalo knife. I did .-nifstof the
kinuing myself, and I.fouud tnat on the
inner portion of his thighs where thvy
had pressed 'against his horsethe skin
waa at least an inch thick. Ho was so
fat" that it reminded me of skinning a
hog. We stretched the skin out and let
it dry in the sun, and I afterward took it
to Dallas. A man who was running a
hotel aiid barroom there was so tickled
At the . idea of having skinned a Co-,
oiariche that he offered me freo board ;
and lodging aud all the drinks I wanted
if I would give him the skin. - I did so '
and he put it up behind his bar, and for
a month or more after that" he had a tie
inendousrush of business. "
Chriss has passed much of his timo '
around the army posts in this country,
and he tells some pretty racy stories
about garrison life. Here is one that is
worth repeating.
. "In the early part 074 I was up at
Fort Griffin. General Buell was cmn
inanding the post, aud among rtie young .
officers there waa Lieutenant Ed Turner,
of the 10th cavalry, a soli of Admiral
Turner. Turner wasa -daredevil and a
terror to the Iudians.' He had the well
deserved reputation of being one of the
bravest officers ever on the frontier, aud
he knew it. One day General 13uell
called me into his quarters and said :
"'Chriss, Til give you $50 if you will
manage to hold Turner up and rob him
of everything he has. -Be careful how
f ou go aboiTtit as he is quick at drawing
a gun, and will shoot you in i. second if
he gets a chance. You had belter get a
man to help you. Bring me tho piuuder
aud i will see that Turner gets it again.'
"I knew Turner was a bad man to
tackle, but as there was 50 in sight I
agreed to undertake the job, and that
night a friend of mine and myself lici t
him up on the parnde ground. We tool;
him unawares and before he kDew it ho,
had two pistols pointing at his head and
not six inches from It. 1 We wht through
his pockets and got $7.75 and a pocket
knife. ' Wo took the cartridges out of his
pistol and gave it fback to him and lot
bini gd ' ' '- '
"Turner was terribly cut up about the '
way in which he had been held up, and
the officers guyed him ""unmercifully.-";'.
General Buoll was particularly hard upon
him. Iu a few days the general IM ma
that he wanted me to act as a 'detective ,
to recover the property. He said ha
wanted to make it appear as if two ne
groes had hold up Tumor. ; I got an old
Mexican woman, to return the property
and to swear that it had been left with
her by two negroes. This made Turner
hopping mad and he said - that he knew
that the men who had held htm up wero
white, although they were disguised with '
lian,!Vprrliiefs'"tied over their face. Jhi "V
swore that no negroes" could ever l.o'.d
him up. v ' . -'
' "About a month after that I was out
on a scout with Turner, and upon his
promise that he would newr revo.il who
told him. I let him know all tha circuia-
stances connected witn tne nignway roo
bery. He thanked me for the informa
tion aud dropped the subject. The first
night wegot back toFjjr Griffin, Turner
disguised himself, and without anv "as
sistance whatever, held up General BueltJ
i:Ot far from the .'settlers' store. He not
only took all the general's money, but he
made him take off his boots anilsenthim
back in his stocking feet tojm quarters.
The next day Lieutenant Turner sent the
tfeneral's ; property back to him by his
negro 6eryant,vith his compliments, and
- message that under soirie circumstances ?
It was possibk?to hold up eren the bray- -
ist of men. After that performance,
which Turner , was careful should be
quietly spread around the post, he was
not teased so much as formerly.
t?A T7l r .
!-.;F0J some time-scientists have been
calculating the time it will take to exhaust
the coal mines of the world at the pres
ent rate of consumption, and the results
are somewhat alarming. Coal deposits
aro of such a nature that the 1 approxi
mate amount contained is easily calcu
lated from measurements. ScIontlstJt
dlffor In the result reached, but they all
come within the limlt'of acentury. Some
of the very ablest think that the ond of
the first quarter of the twentieth centu
ry will see the end ,of coal mining in
America on a large scale. . '
Census statistics just publ!shodbear
uporMhese predictions with a great deal
of Interest. The production of coal In tho
United States in the year 1890 was ib
round numbers 140.000,000 tons. For
tho census year of 1880, ten years before,
tho product was 70,000,000, showing an
-increase of nearly one hundred per cent,
in quantity mined. This Increase in pro
duction is astonishing, and indicates the
exhaustion of tho mines at an earlier
date thaii has been predicted by any re
liable scientist yet With Increased ma
chinery and facilities for rempvlng coal
from the niinos, tho amount mtned, and
the amount consumed will go on increas
ing, and the method of using coal will bo
more and more wastefull as its- cost be
comes loss until : the. world is suddenly
waked up to the fact that it is practically
without any fuel. We nover miss th
water till tiro well runs dry. .
Ukre In America w6 are accustomed
to think and say that nowhoro olso is
true merit so quickly recognized and
made basis for promotion. An Instance
Is afforded, however, in the, death ,ot
William - Henry Smith, first lord of tho
treasury of England, which occurred
this woo k, which' shows that in this re
spect our English cousins do not dlffor
from us so much, though living undor a
different form of government. .
William Henry Smith begun life as a
newsboyaud his whole history wa,s ono
of constantly recurring promotions, dying
; at a ripe ago In one of the "most honor
able and rosponsiblo; positions in tho
English government. : His success .was
duo eutlrely to his habit of dolug every
thing well. It was this man who. in the
famous opera Pinafore, was satlrizocL-by
Gilbert us the boy into- whose , keeping
-ivas given tho care of the handle of tho
big front door:
"And he polished it up so carefully ,
That now he is ruler of the queen's
',' navy."
Consitikbing the"att!tudo of Parnoll,
tn lato months, toward the 'Irish party,
his death is really a good thing for It.
With egotism and stubbornness that was
never excelled by the most despotic
uler of J,he east, he insisted upon re
maining as the leader of the Irish party
in parliament when all tho best members
the party denounced him, and all poopfu
of good common sense saw that hi reten
tion at the head of tho party would ro
sult in breaking it up. Unfortunately, he
bad in his possession all the funds of tho
party and coilld completely block ij
work if .ho chose so to do; and ho did.
He thus made himself a stumbling block
In the way of thev Irish- people which
vleath has now removed. But for a single
false si op which 'involved him in a dis
graceful scandal and made it necessary
for him to retire frtftn the leadership of
his party, ho might have gone iuto history
as ono of the greatest of tho Irish race of
modern times. As 'it is, his placo in
history, will not be very creditable.
The state chemist has made an analysis
of the tin plato made. by the Cincinnati
Corrugating company, of PIqua, Ohio
and reports finding of iron, in round
numbers, 87 per cent., of tin 9 percent.,
of lead 3 per cenU nd a trace of zinc.
The zinc trace is probably. in tho form of
an impurity in the tin or lead. The
Democratic newspapors are using this
analysis against Major McKinloy, but it
seems, to us that so far as the quantity of
tin contained, the sample is a very good
lerne tin as it contains about three tlmos
as much tin as load. There is good evi
dence that th workmanship was bad.
It is established beyond doubt that there
was the usual amount of tin in this Piqua
terno plate. ' .
The Governor's prompt demands for re
traction from "the New Tork Recorder
and' the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
recalls his similar aetion with tho last
mnn tinned naoer two vear3 affO. lhe
assertions then wore oven more compro- i
mising to the Governor and wero made
Jby the Couimofeial Gazette in even plain-.
er.and stronger language tnan inai
which is used in the New York Record
er's article. "Wo may as well be bold;
wa have the original documents in our
possession." The next day the Cotumer.
clal contained his "Statement to the
public" Will there be a statement to the
Si'iM. in this case?" .. I .

the time the first drains were laid, which
was less than a year ago," the whole area
was, either a barren, waste or fa thicket of
coarse weed and small trees, of jwhlch no
use could be made. This season it has
produced a heavy growth of corn in the
whole area first drained except on about
one-half acre, where the-wire worms (the
larva of tho snapping beetles) have "injured
it, aud about two acres, most of which was
devoted to uielonB, aud pumpkins. - Thirty
toniiof watermelons were taken from about
one half acre, and the vellow pumpkins,
6till on the gronnd where they grew, were
a beautiful sight in the tarly September

It was not a short time ago when a high
authority in agriculture expressed the
opinion that the stream itto whiclr the
drains must" empty could not be lowered
enough to make the drainage of this meed

by cutting across the loops has helped, so
that now the stream has cut its own bot

HOW TO PRESERVE IRISH
POTATOES, ,
Gerald McCarthy, N. C. Ex. Sta. Rnlcfgh.
; The difficulty of keeping Irish potatoes
in edible condition after March 1st id well
knowu to Houthtrn housekeepers, farmers
aLd merchauts Prof, Schribaux, of the
National Cyllrge of Agriculture of France,
has recently devised a very J Biuaple, cheap
und succtRi'ul method by ; whicii ho has
been able to preserve potatoes in edible
eoudition to- over a year and a half. This
process has beeu adoptedy by the French
government for pres-rviug potatoes for the
army. The French iJinister'of Agriculture
publishes the details of (he process in the
dlncial Huilttm dn Miuisterede t'Agricul
ture'for Maich, 1891. The following is a
truuslation' of the essential part of the
schema: . ; v "
1. The method of preservation consists
in plunging the tubers, before storing thera
away, for ten hours into a 2 per ceut, solu
iiou of commercial sulphurio acid in water; I
two purts of aciu to lOU parts of water.
2. The acid pfuetrat- s the eyes to the
depth of about obe-ionieth inch (two millu
nitiers), which serves to destroy thefr
sprouting power ; it does not have any an
preoiable t tfoct upon the skin of the pota
toes. ... - - ,
3. After ; remaning iu the liquid teu
hours the tubers must be thoroughly dried
before fcloiing away.
: 4. The ;.auje 'fiquid may be need any
number of times with equally good results.
5. A barrelbr tauk of any kind will dtf
for tlis treatment.' The acid is so- dilute it
does not ttffectthc wood.
. Chfufical analysis shows that "pota
to s treated by this process are as nutriti'
tlpus and healthful .ufter eighteen months as
when fn-Klily dug. V. -
7. ., Potatoes- thus treated are of coarse
worthless for plantifrg. - .
THE MEANEST MAN-
Bill'Kye spoke the truth when he said: A
roan may use a wart ou the back of his neck
for a coilar button, lide in the back coach
to vavo tho iutsrest on hip 'money until the
oapductur gets around, stop his watcb. at
night to save wear aud t.r, leave his i's
and t's -w ithout a dot or cross to save ink,
pasture his mothei's grave to ave corn
but anau of this t-ort is a gentleman and a
bcholar compared with the fellow that takes
a Lewspaper two or thrte years aud when
he is asked to pay for it, puts it back iu the
efflce and has it marked 'refused." When
a man wants his paper stopped he ought to
pay tip and inform the editor that his pa.
per is no longer wanted. - , v
