THE CATALOE ROBE
ncKU.ENT sinsnTCTE
VOK BUFFALO ROBES.
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.

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

and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect

GOVERNMENT OWES IUM.
Indian War Veteran Has Been Trying
for 60 Years to Get Pay.
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.
