A Deathman Whs Collects Cariosities ait
Carries Strange Pets in H:'a Pakti.
The Oregonian relates thai at
tlie Esmond hotel is staying a
unique character in the person of
Mr. John G. Witte, of New York.
Fcr the past thirty-seven years he
has been traveling almost constant
ly, through the United State?,
Canada and Europe, on business
and pleasure combined, and has
acquired a vast fund of information
about places and people. lie is
ery genial and jovial, aud like
xiost ieople who have traveled
extensively, is a good and interest
talker, lie is a great collector of
curiosities, and has gathered from
the many countries he has visited
a valuable collection.
A numoer of prominent business
Bien who have knewn him for
years, called on him yesterday, to
whom he exhibited a few rare
things which he has along with
him. One of these was a wonder
ful knife made in 1811 and pre
sented to Napoleon I. The work
man ship is very fine, the materials
being gold, silver, steel and pearl.
It was carried by Napoleon during
his disastrous Russian campaign,
and contains twenty-one blades
and implements. He has refused
$o00 for this knife and has willed
' it to the New York Historical
Society upon his death.
Mr. Witte is something of a
naturalist and has a great fondness
for strange pets. While convers
ing with his friends yesterday he
brought out from his pocket a
pretty little Hying squirrel, as tame
as possible, which, when told that
it was Sunday sat up on its
haunches, folded its pavs across
its breast and moved its jaws as if
praying. From another pocket he
produced a small terrapin of the
, -genuine diamond-backed variety,
which crawled around the table
and wiped off it noss with its little
paws when bidden, but seemed
(lad when restored to its warm
nest in his pocket. Next he pro
duced two horned toads, one from
San Antonio, Tev., and the other
rom California, and showed the
difference in color, style of horns,
tc., and then made, them close
and open their eyes and perform
other tricks. The flying squirrel
has traveled 40,000 miles with him
during the past two years.
During the time he has been on
the road Mr. Witte has traveled
500,000 miles. Although 58 years
of age, he has the activity and ;
exuberant spirit of a man of 30.
He speaks fluently English, Ger
man, French, Spanish and Latin,
and having had his eyes open dur
ing his travels, possesses a remark
able fund of reminiscences and
anecdotes. He has lately visited j
the Yosomite valley, and to hear
him tell of its beauties and won
ders is almost as good as visiting
it one's self. He will remain in
that city for a short time,and hopes
to secure some minerals, etc., to
add to his wonderful museum,
which all his friends do not
fail to visit while in New York.

A ood Hit.
Clackamas county likes to get a
whack at Multnomah occasionally,
and docs not lack of material from
which to construct it. The Ore
Ionian notices one as follows:
"Last Sunday Judge W. L. White
was crossiig tho suspeasion
bridge," says an Oregon City paper,
"when he met a fiae rig from Pert
land. ' As it approached it stopped,
and gentleman said: lnis is a
toll bridge, I believe?' To which
the judge responded: 'To, sir;
Clackamas county is not building
toll bridges. Drive right along.
Ne one will molest you. We leave
the building of ;o'.i bridges te
Multnomah county.'" The only
thing that can be ofTered in defense
or mitigation is that Multnomah
county is much smaller than
Clackamas.
