Beale get their | just dues,” said an old army officer last Sun- day as he swung him- self to an easier posi- | tion in his hammock | among the trees. He| had been reading “How | Gen.

It eets’ my blood to shiverin’ even to this day. ‘Then thar came the long, deep growlin' of the bars. Above ‘em all, though, was the howlin’ of the wolves. They snapped | an’ snarled an’ growled an’ barked till it secrned ter me the woods was alive with the pesky, smeakin’ kiotes. “Bimeby the other fellers let up or wore out, but the wolves kep a yowlin’, and what war worse they kep a gettin’ closer. I could hear their jaws snap, an’ they seemed to be havin’ a | kind of famly row. I thought there war a thou- san’ at the least kalkerlashun, but I knowed personally acquainted | better, of course.

The handsome house being erected by Mr. Stanislaus Hamilton is nearing completion and will be ready for occupancy about the first of July. ‘The grading of the streets and the laying of sidewalks in this subdivision is progressing rap- ly. Pretty beds of flowers are the corners of the squares, which add greatly to the attractiveness of this locality. ‘The tower erected on the site of old Fort Lieut. Beale performed valuable service for | om Ut I knowed ther war uch Surwed cowards | Bunker Hill iva great resort. for young people the United States government during his career | on the frontier, and his health was seriously im- paired for several years by his arduous labors | at the period referred to by Tuz Stan. I think the narrator was slightly mistaken in one state- | ment, however. No material benefit raay have accrued to Lieut. Beale for his brave conduct at that time, but in a ‘Lite of Kit Carson,’ by De- Witt C. Peters, this exploit ix given its fu'l med | of praise. Mr. Peters "0 the scientific world be has proved a valuable acquisition. To the United States government his services were inestimatie, and as an explorer be has few | equal eT think {t was fm April of 1847 that Kit Carson and Lieut. Beale were ordered to re- port in Washington with important dispatches | to the War and Navy departments. They were three months making the trip of over 4,000 | miles, and did it on Horsebacl, and they were | considered to have performed » wonderful feat and it was. It seems incredible now. We can- Rot realire in this age of electricity and steam what the aunihilation of time and distance means to those men who blazed the way for such improvements. A WoNDERPUL CHARACTER. “Kit Carson was a wonderful character,” continued the officer. “I knew him very well and consider him one of the strangest combi- nations ef theage. He was not «large man, and had gray eves and long sandy hair’ but he | was bi powerful and athletic. He was as gentle asa women, yet possessed a terribly | ferocious nature when aroused. He was shy | and reserved among strangers. and even among | f xbout him- at he wasararely good story teller, for be used the words that would conveg his mean- img the quickest and shortest way. He was | sadly deficient im book education, but spoke | both French and Spanish fluently, and I think | he was alo conversant with every Indian dia- | lect spoken on this continent. He was fond of | cards and was one of the best ‘seven-up’ play- | ers Lever saw. He loved horses, too, and his | big borse. ‘Apache,’ was known all over the | Rocky mountain country. Kit never drank a drop of liquor, was a man of strictest integrity and wouldn't lie to save anybody. Certain! these were queer traits for aman of Kit’s real ing and naturally roving disposition. His father | wished to apprentice him toe tanner, but Ay found greater fascination in hunting hides than tanning them. So in 1826 he left Missouri | home and began ‘trail blazing’ through the then unpenetrated mysteries of t! ‘f. great Amer- | desert and the wilds of the Rocky moun- | tathe, He told me once that for fifteen years | he never saw the face of a white woman and | never slept under a white man’s roof. He mar- ried a beautiful Cheyenne Indian girl, to whom he was most devotedly attached. The daughter | born to them was educated in a convent in St. Louis and is yet living in California with her husband. The mother died when the child was quite small and Kit mourned her loss deeply. AS GUIDE To FREMONT. “Rit Curson was Fremont’s guide when he made his memorable trip with the U. 8. corps of topograpaical engineers and earned the title of “The Path Finder.’ It was from Kit's own lips that I learned one of the inftidents of that trip. “Tit wae in tho fall of 1566 that Gen. Castleton of the United States army, Lucian B. Maxwell, like Kit.» hunter, trapper, guide and scout; John Henderson, the agent for the Ute India: two Apache scouts, Kit Carson and myself were | Sumped up in the Raton mountains, 7,000 feet | above the level of thesea. When weleft the valley in the early morning an August sun was mello ing the face of nature. We expected to complete our business in a few hours, and not anticipat- ing delay had taken no blankets and mighty little grub. At that altitude after sundown the air was freezing cold. We piled all the inflam- mable stuff within our reach into ® pile and made a little fire, but the material to burn was | feant in supply and kept the two redskins busy | feeding the * our ‘grub stuke’ had ape wwe were hungry as well as cold. and as -ve dared not go to sleep for fear of perishing in the cold in that unshel- tered spot, we huddled together about the blaze | and smoked and told stories and called each other nares more emphatic than elegant be- cause. old frontiersmen as we were, we had had so little forethought to provide against such | dire contingencies. “Kit, for a wonder, was in « talkative mood. It was only rarely that he could be made to talk of himself, and when he did it was always worth Listening to. We had been discussing the In- Gian question. Just at that time ple in that country talked of little else. Jack Henderson | had been telling some side-eplitting srperiences | with the wards of the government under particula: charge—the Utes.

Purty soon, though, they come in range of my sights. I could jast see them kind of dim like down among the big pines. They war actin’ mighty queer even fur op so I got up from whar I war propped up @ pine in the fire light an’ got back in the thadder to watch “em. “They kept circlin’ a little nearder each xelp, an’ all ‘the time a snappin’ thar jows an’ actin’ like so many young pups over a bone. “hadn't no notion of shootin’ at the durned | varmints, for thet would wake the bovs up, and | they war a sleepin’ mighty peaceful like after a | here day's march.

They had made | the noise of enappin’ their jaws by shakin’ bones in thar hands. I thought I knowed all the devices and cunning of the critters, but | they fooled me that time bad. _It war the first | an’ last time I war ever took in thet way by any | durned redskin. ‘Thet differcult cost me mighty dear. Two of the boys never knowed what hurt ‘em, and three of ‘em never got over knowin’ what burt “em, for they carried the marks of the wounds | the Ep of their lives. I war just naturally paralyzed by the sud- dennes: of the attack, an’ when I came to my | senses the boys thet were unharmed war up with ritles in their hands, an’ lookin’ fur red | skins, but Lord we couldn't see nuthin’. It} war black as a stack of black cats in the tember | and thar warn't nuthin’ to drow a bead on. The | injuns had seen us as we laid in the circle of the fire light and hed the advantage of seein’ us Jain as daylight. The one volley satisfied ‘em, For they skulked off, an’ we didn't hear nuthin’ more of ‘em. “We didn’t know they had gone, through, an’ got ready for a siege. We put our fire out mighty quick an’ squatted round, sad and sor- enough, till mornin.” cup on the sideof the hill, whar the spring rippled down to the valley, makin’ music over the stones, and whar the ‘pines whispered an’ | moaned, we dug a grave an’ in it put two of the best boys whoever spilt hearts blood for the cussed red ekins. I always feel mighty bad ghen I think of that epersode, fur it seems like I'd had any sense Ta a known them warn't Fike enough wolves. It war the last time I war ever took in thet way, but thet don't put | life into them two boys nor build no monument \ to theer memories!” Isapex Worrett Batu. A Victory for the American Hog. Written for The Evening Star. Tt was on an early evening local train on the Weet Shore railroad the other | Saturday night. The smoking car was full of laborers going down tothecity after their week's work. The great American hog occupied four places. He had turned two of the cane-bot- tomed seats, facing each other. Two flat pack- ing cases occupied the nile weats and he was | complely stretched out, with his dusty feet on |the forward seat next the window. An un- lighted cigar hung between his fat fingers and the perspiration streamed down his fat cheeks and was lost in his limp collar. His mouth was open and he was dreaming of his lucky week in selling cigars to the country merchants up the river, for he was a drummer in a’small way. At New Durham two Italians entered the car. One was large, fat, greasy; the other small, bent, but active, and wore large brass earrings. Both wery very dirty and both carried big The only approximately vacant seats were those occupied by the drummer. The big Italian touched him on the thoulder and said: “Mista, canna I sit?” again and again. Finally, “Naw! Goway! from the sleeper.

To the Baitor of The Evenins Star: After twenty years’ labor at my counter I have managed to add to the business a horse and wagon. On Sundays and holidays I like to take my wife and little ones a drive. The horse | gets a day off for every Sunday I use him and the light Jersey which is substituted for the heavy wagon seems nothing for him to pull. Few people in Washington have not noticed how didicult it is even with well-broken horses to get out of the city without having trouble from the many obstacles which beset the driv- er's path. The very necessary street car (elec- tric or horse) mette one at every turn and there is not a bridge out of Washington which is not incumbered either with a heavy line of travel or street cars, even on Sundays. ‘The great need of asafe bridge over Rock | creek, for instance, or over the Potomac river, ‘h persons driving may leave the cit; the mind of the visitor to Ws ington.
