Buffalo" Jones Is Now Producing a Hybrid Animals, a Cross Between the (Jalloway and the Buffalo "Calaloo" 1m Uio Scientific Nanio of the New Brocd and It IYoiiUsoh tlie Only Perpetuation of Uie Buffalo. "Buffalo Junes of "cataloe" fame, has at last gotten his scheme for the preservation of the bison and the pro duction of a new fur-bearing animal on a business basis, and in the course of a short while, perhaps a few months, possibly a year or two, the "cataloe robe" will commence to be regularly quoted on the market Mr. Jones passed through Washington this week and had a talk with Presi dent Roosevelt, who Is much Interest ed In everything relating to big game life In the west, says a Washington dispatch. Mr. Jones has already started a ranch down on the western edge of the Grand canyon, where they are rearing buffalo and cataloe and car rying on experiments with Persian sheep. Possibly through the Inter vention of the president, Mr. Jones may get the loan of some of the buf falo bulls that will soon have to be thinned out of the Yellowstone park herd, and this will mean a substan tial addition to the breeding stock on the forest reserve grazing land. A Cataloe Robe. The pride of Jones' life just now Is a cataloe robe that he Is carrying on to New Tork to show some friends there, and which he will afterward take back west with him. Cut square, the skin Is about eight feet each way, of a glossy blackish-brown, very soft and with hair not quite so long as a bear's. "I have a standing offer of $1200 for that robe when I want to sell it;" said its owner, "but It Is not for sale Just now. IPs worth more to me than It Is to any one else, and If It had not been for" that skin, which shows what we can .dq.. I would not have been able to get the assistance I needed to pat this work on a paying basis. That kin Is from a 3-year-old. My partner cut it off too far back from the head but the fur Is there and shows for It self. The 6-year-olds are bigger by half, of course. We will have to tart some of the killing right away, and then you will see some furs." Breeding the New Types. The cataloe range in the forest re serve Is a big piece of country, but the buffalo are kept on favored land, while the Galloway cows with which they are crossed are allowed to run wilder. The mountain ranges of the reserve furnish cold winter weather, which Is productive of the best grades of fur, though the robe Mr. Jones has with him was raised in Texas, where the weather is much less favorable. Mr. Jones was asked whether the experi ments with the cataloe had reached a point where there was a fixed type that reproduced Its characteristics. He replied: "That Is one of the points we are trying to establish now. The bulls of the half-bloods, like mules and a good many other hybrids, are sterile. So are the quarter-bloods. But when you get down to the eighths they are fertile again, and that is one of the things we are getting at now to fix the proportion of buffalo and Galloway blood that Is necessary to establish a fixed type. "There are about 30 Galloway cows on our range now and half a dozen buffalo bulls. I am going to send down some more from Montana, and when I go back I expect to have a whole trainload of livestock to take along. There are some of the bulls in the Yellowstone herd that ought to be weeded out, and we will proba bly get the loan of those.; It all costs money, but I am very well satisfied with the way things are going. Public Interested In Buffalo. It does take a long time to drive an Idea Into people's heads. Here I have been working for the preserva tion of the buffalo for 20 years, and I am Just getting It so that the public Is taking an Interest In it. in 1889 there was a herd of 600 down In the No Man's land strip, south of Kansas. "I went to Ingalls, who was in con gress then, and begged him to get a law through that would prohibit the killing of any of them. It would have been a comparatively easy matter then to have built up a big herd from that basis, and it would have cost very little to put a small guard of old retired soldiers around the strip for the protection of the herd. But no. It was admitted in congress that the Idea was practicable, but they would not do anything with It. and tho whole of that herd was killed out. "Now skins of all sorts are getting scarcer and dearer. The Improvement In guns and traps Is wiping out the fur-bearing animals. But people will have furs, and the only thing to do Is to breed animals that will raise them. There are now about 1000 buffalo left alive, about 400 up In Montana, with the Corbln herd up In New Hampshire next. There are about 40 In the Yel lowstone park herd. The trouble with the park animals, like all animals In a small bunch, is that they Interbreed too closely and lose size and develop ment" 13 JOHNSON GUILTY? Mexican Government Looking Into Case of Oregon Convict, M. O. Rey, a secret service officer from the City of Mexico, was a pas enger on the overland train from this city to San Francisco last evening, after a sojourn here and In other parts of Oregon for the past week, says the Salem Statesman. He was sent here to Investigate the facts in the case of Albert A. Johnson, who has been a prisoner at the penitentiary since Oc tober, 1899. under a conviction at Grant's Pass of the crime of seduction preferred by Miss Grace Allen, a girl of about IS years of age. Johnson's right name Is Eduardo E. Castello, and is a half-breed, his moth er benlg a Mexican and his father a white man. The Mexican government of which Castello was a subject, is looking into the matter and Rey is to make his report to the Mexican con sul at San Francisco. Rey claims to have proof that the prosecution and conviction of Castello was the result of a conspiracy to get rid of him for the purpose of securing some valuable property which he owned in the Grant's Pass neighbor hood. He says the relations between the Allen girl and Johnson were mutual and that as soon as her people found out the relationship they made an ex cuse to carry out a design which had been long formed and that they threatened and forced the girl Into giving the evidence which convicted Johnson. Rey claims that the girl has confessed these facts to him and that he can prove them from other sources. Warden Curtis, of the prison, says that this Is Johnson's second term in the Oregon penitentiary, but Rey, when asked If the man had been ever In the penitentiary before, said no. He seems to be confident that with the facts which he has gathered, the Mex ican authorities can bring such pres sure to bear as will set Johnson (or Castello) free, and that the man will have a good claim for heavy damages. Johnson Is a man over 50 years old. H m.iJh. The Laxative nown OF IT A 1 ,! There are two classes ot remedies: those of known qual ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when natureneeds assist ance ; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempc , rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remediesof known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Fics, manufactured by the California Fijj Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It Is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refreshandcleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti pation and the many illsresultingtherefrom. Its active princi ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as w iih fit 41 the favor of many millions or well informed persons wno Know b,i '?4 $ of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience M Si? thatitisamostexcellent laxative remedy, weao not claim mat ie it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really . . r !!.

For 60 years Asa Fowler, who fought In the battle of the Block House at Seattle In 185 naa been trying to secure his payment from the government for that service, ana a few days ago he received notice that the claim had been allowed, only to find that no appropriation had been made by congress to cover It. The amount allowed him by the claims de partment Is $8.80. Mr. Fowler now lives at Toppenish, Wash., and feel that he has been swindled in some manner by the gov ernment of some of Its accounting of fleers. At the time of his discharge from tho service Mr. Fowler turned into the proper authorities his arms and equipment used by him as a sol dier. Now that the claim has been allowed Tor his services he finds that lie has been charged for his arms. Mr. Fowler served as a private In rantain Hewitt's Company H, from October 25. 1855. to January 25, 1856. and In Cautain lender's Company A from January 29. 1856 to July 23, 1856. His salary and allowances for the period served was 1145.31, but In the account as audited by the auunor for the war department ho Is charged with $135.51 for clothing, arms and equipments, leaving the government debtor to him In the sum of $8.80. While In the service Mr. Fowler used a horse and saddle furnished by himself which were lost In one of the engagements and he put In a claim for them to the government. This claim was disallowed on account or the fact as noted In his notice of al lowance of the claim, that the records do not show that the horse was lost The trouble in the account appears to be the very careless manner In which the records were kept by the volun teer officers of the companies at the time. mount the slippery steps of moral de- Bdmlnlslratloni believing that no other pravlty to power and the voice of the document can be .0 strong, reformer will cry out durln, ; the countless years against the oppressors' ., . ... ... . wrong even as it cries out now. 8ta"d or ,al' on thttt recr?'

"Public Health Since Mayor John son's first election the health office of the city has never been closed day and night, holidays and Sundays the battlo against filth and dlseaso Is waged. Under the ancient theory and practice of city government, money was saved on the health department so that there would be funds to fight epi demics. The modern method Is to spend enough money on the health de partment so that there will be no epi demics to fight The old health de partment used to cost the taxpayers $35,000 per year.
