"iffpv 03 i .- - VOL. XX, NO. 78. ASTORIA, OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 4, 1884. PRICE, FIVE CENTS. i 3 i I- 1 I 111 I I I I tiiSfeg 71 irl I III I I 111 I I HOW A MAX KUXS DOWN A IEEI1. Thi Apaclie I'eimlty for Mi,iuj Game at the First Fire. 1h- When an Apache hunter goes out j for a hunt he dispenses -with oven tlu . scant attire he assumes in his ordin ary daily vralk in life. He needs mi ' dog for his quick eye detects the trai of a deer as readily as thc hound's I does, no matter how keen its scent, j On the trail he follows it ab silenth as a shadow, for Jie knows that he will soon come in sight of the game, either feeding or lying at rest nmong the bushes. "When he sights tl-e deer he steals to within safe gunshot. If the deer's head is turned away from the hunter, the latter, first taking aim, shuffles his foot on the ground. If the deer is lying down it springs to its feet at the sound, and wheels around facing the direction from which the sound came. If it is stand ing it turns around quickly. The Apache hunter is always desirous of killing a deer by shooting it as nearly in the center of the forehead as he can. So, when the deer turns toward him, ho fires at that spot. His aim is rarely at fault, but sometimes the deer is quicker to discover the cause of its alarm than the hunter is to fire, and turns for safety in flight. An Apache's gun, also, not unfrequently misses fire, and the deer flees on the wings of the wind. To permit a deer to escape after it is once discovered is something that no Apache hunter is expected to do, and it is against their code to fire the second time. The hunter, failing to kill his game a) the first attempt, must run it down, and it is very rare that he fails in this chase. As the deer starts away in its flight, leaping from twenty to thirty feet at a time, the Indian drops his gun, :uid, with hideous yells, starts in pursuit. The deer at first leaves the hunter far behind, putting forth its greatest efforts to that end! But its trail is as plain to the Indian as a turnpike road is to a white man, and ho follows iu As is its nature, as soon as the deer is out of sight and sound of threateu inir dancer, it stops and waits for de velopments. The sight of the pur-j suing hunter starts it on its way again. Jivery nait oi tmsKinu tens against the deer, for it is not of suffi cient length to give it any beneficial . rest, and at every new start it is stiffer and less active. The Indian never halts. There are runners among the Apaches who can run for twenty-four hours without a stop, and can make their five miles even- hour of the time. After the deer has run for two or three hours, its thirst prompts it to make for the nearest water. This the relentless hunter knows to be in evitable, and when the deer reaches that stage of the chase the Indian considers the victory won. There is no hope for the deer after it stops to drink, for it takes into its parched stomach all it can. Having laden itself with this weight of water the i deer is unable to take long leaps, and j oannot extend its run between halts more than half the former distance. The Indian's tongue may hang swol len and white from his mouth, and his mouth be as dry as dust, and his stomach burning up with heat, but he never stops to drink. He scoops a handful of water from the stream as he dashes across it, and carries it to his mouth, where he holds it a mo ment and ejects it without taking a swallow. If he is obliged to swim, he lets the water run into his mouth but keeps it from his stomach. After running an hour or so, after the deer has quenched his thirst, the Indian knows it is time to find some evidence of the animal's weakening. These he is sure to find along the trail, in the shape of blood spots on j some rock where the deer has tum bled on its knees, or a patchy of hair clinging to some sharp projec tion, showing that the deer's strength has failed so that it cannot turn quickly out of the way of obstacles. !Now the Indian increases his speed. He knows that the deer's race is run. In time he overtakes the deer, which is now loping feebly along. A yell startles it into a momentary burst of speed. Then, as if appreciating the fact that it were useless to prolong the race, it stops and turns with all the defiance its exhausted nature can assume, and awaits the approach of the hunter. Sometimes, however, the deer runs until it drops dead or dying in its tracks. If it turns upon the Indian, the latter keeps right on at full speed. He knows the deer can do him no harm, its inclination to the contrary notwithstanding. He seizes it boldly, throws it to the ground with ease, and cuts its throat. Without a moment's delay, whether the deer is dead or dying, the Indian cuts from behind the fore shoulder a large piece of meat He sucks the -warm blood from it and devours the morsel, keeping constantly on the move. If the carcass of the deer is not too heavy, he throws it across his shoulders and starts immediately for home. He does not rest a moment, for fear of becoming to stiff to make the return trip. If the deer is too heavy for him to carry, he cuts out the choicest parts, hides the remain der in a secure place, and brings in the former. In this place another member of the tribe is selected to take his back track on the arrival of the hunter in camp, and bring in the venison left behind. If the deer is young an Apache hunter will run it down within a dis tance of sixty miles, but they have beenjcnown to prolong a chase for 100 miles. The course taken is al ways devious and circuitous, and may end within a mile or so of the start ing place. Senator Sabin'.s Views. Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 2. Sen ator Sabin, Chairman of the National Eepublican Committee, this after noon, authorized the Evening Jour nal to define his position on finances as follews: In his opinion, the pay ment of the National debt should cease, in fact, should have ceased years ago. He should favor the issue of 2 T)er cent fifty-year bonds by the government, lnwwnicn ail Donas oi either 'denominations should be con verted as they mature or are called in. These bonds could be used as a basis for bank issues. Accompany ing this measure should be a repeal of the 1 per cent tax on bank circula tion, now existing. This would mnke the interest on the new bonds equv alent to the banlts to 3 per cent, and he thought a majority of the banks would readily take them, especially if they were allowed, as they should be, to issue circulation upon their full face, or par value. Under present basis the banks can issue circulation to an extent of only 90 per cent of the par value of bonds deposited as security for such circulation. He thought it would be safe to permit banks to issue notes to the par value of their bonds, because our money cannot be any better than our Gov ernment. A ItroLerN Good Lnck. lr. F. J3.
