Life Sustained in Those Rescued at the Cost of Their Com- rades’ Lives, Sufferings of the Greely Party The New York Times prints a horrlble story of the sufferings of the Greeley party. It says: Wrttten documents now in the possession of the navy department at Washington add to the record of mis- erable human suffering already published in connection with the finding of the Greely relief expedition the most shock- ing stories of inhumanity and canibalism. All the facts have been in the possession of Secretary Chandler for nearly tnree woeks, but so closely have they been guarded, and 8o strongly have the naval ofticers and sailors maintained the silence imposed upon them, that not even an inkling of the true and horrible condition of aflairs has yot reached the public ear, For the sake of humanity and the American people, the army authori- ties are endeavoring to keep the matter hushed; but in the official investigation which 18 almoat sure to come the facts will undoubtedly come out. Every of- fort will presumably be taken to prevent it, but the truth must be known in time. To prevent the possibility of the remains of the dead being seen, Commander Schley, it will bo remembered, insisted upon remaining in St. Johns until iron caskets could be made and the bodies hermetically sealed.

GRIMES, Jy somke I Ogulalla Neb who assisted in removing the bodies, were not allowed to seo them, The lips of tho officers were sealed. When Com- modore Schley met Secretary Chandler and.General Hazon at Portsmouth, Aug- ust 2, on the arrival of the ships from St. Johns, he was very much agitated, and called the gentlemen into the cabin of the vessel. Undoubtedly he then communicated to them the facts which have since become an open secret. The sufferings and pri- vations of the men in their canvas huts during the long, bitter winter of 1883.4 have not half been told. It has been published that after the game gave out, early in February. they lived prmupnlly on sealskins, lichens, and shrimps. As a matter of fact they were kept alivo on human flesh. When the rescuing party discovered tho half-starved survivors, their first duty was to look to the two wmen who were insensible from cold and privation, even to the point of death. | One of them, a German, was wild in his 000 in bullion, which he expects to res- cue from a watery dp]mumry These galleons are a portion of a fleet of treas- ury ships sunk in the harbor in the early part of the nuhu-pmh century during & conflict between the English and Dutch war ships and a French and Spanish fleet. Mr. Boyle himself went down in a diver's suit to the treasure’galleons sunk in the inner harbor and found the vessels covered with mud to the depth of four or five feet. The woodwork of the sunken fleet he discovered to be in a sound con dition. The number of the sunken gal- leons is not known, but the silver which is said to be in the lower hold of the ves sels is supposed to be not less than £20,- 000,000, Permission to recover this monoy has been obtained from the Spanish government and work will be commenced immediately. — Horseford's Acid Phosphate, A Valuable Nerve Tonlc Dr. C, C. Olmstead, Milwaukee, Wis., says: ‘1 have used it in my practice ten yoars, and consider it a valuable nerve tonic, —— A Gloomy Prospect for the Window- Glass Workers, Pittsburgh Special to the Globe Democrat, The window-glass mannfacturers of the country are discussing the propriety of a move of great interest to the 6,000 men and boys employed in that Industry. On account of the strike the factories of the west are in operation only three months of the year, which ended on the 30th of June. There was no dissatisfaction on the part of the employes when the ususl summer suspension of two months was ordored, but they were not so anxious for the vacation as if they had worked stead- ily during tho whole year and had been in good shape financially, and have looked forward eagerly to the 1st of Sep- tember, when the period of reat would be ended and they would again bo making money. The manufac- turers havo = also been looking forward to the 1lst of September, put through different spectacles. The demand for the product of their factories has been very unsatisfactory during the summer, and there is a decided disposi- tion not to light their fires at the usual time, but to continue the suspension at least two weeks, and probably until Oc- tober 1, The matter has been quietly discussed for several days. A speclal meeting will bo held very shortly tu de- termine what shall be done. Manutac- turers who were spoken to to-day say the outlook for their branch of the glass trade is very gloomy, and that the prob- abilities are the season will open with a reduction of prices and a correspond- ing reduction of wages. The latter will be effected without a strike. as wages, under a new arrangement are governed by the selling price, The flint factories will resume operations on Monday, after a six weeks' suspension, and the bottle factories will resume on the first of Sep- tember. Trade in both branches is poor. —— The Volce ot the People, Tho people, as a whole, soldom make mistakes, . and the unanimous voice in praise which comes from those who have delirium. “Oh!” he shricked, as the sailors took hold of him to lift him tenderly, *‘don’t lot them _shoot mo as they did poor Honry. Must, T be killed and caten as Honry wan! Don't lot them do it. Don't! Don't.” The sailors were horrified, but at once reported the man's words vo Commandaer Schley. felt satisfied that the poor fellow was speaking the truth, and that some of the men who perished had been stripped of their flesh to keep their ;comrades alive. Mr, Schley proposed to make thorough work of it. When the horrible reality was brought out before an Investigating committeo he did not propose to have it rest on his oral testimony. He instruct- od two or three gentlemon, among whom was Dr. Amos, the surgeon of the Boar, to makea careful examination and put their conclusions in writing. This was done, and the reports are now in the hands of the navy de- partment, Lioutenant Greely was decidedly adverse to having the bodies of the buried dead disturbed. He thought it best, as they had been burled so long, to let them remain in their Arctic graves. Commander Schley did notjagree with him. The bodies were dug from their graves in the little hill just back of the permanent camp eetab- lished in October, 1883, Most of the blankets contained nothing but heaps of white bones, many of them picked clean. The remains could be identified only by tho marks on tho blankets, By in- quirios commander Schloy discovored that many of the sovendeen menwho!wero said to have perished from starvation had been eaten by their famishing com- radec. 1t is reported that tho only men who oscaped tho knifo were throe or four who died of scurvy. The amputated limbs of mon who aftorwards perished wero eager- ly devoured us food, doath was particularly tragic. Tlo was a young ‘ierman, without any relatives in this country, and joined company I, Fifth cavalry, in Cincinnati, His friends tried to dissuade him from going with the o pedition, but his spirit of adventuro was aroused by tales of Arctio exploits, and he dotermined to go. Drlven to dospair by his frightful hunger, Henry saw an opportunity to steal little moro than his share of rations, and he the attempt. Ho was found out and shot for his crime. In the published of- ficial report the death of thls man is sot down as having occurred on June G When the body was found his hands and face, though shrunken, were intact and recognizable, but nearly everywhere elso the skin had been stripped from him and the flesh picked from the bones. Even his heart and lungs were eaven by his comrades, One rib was found shattered by a bullet, and to another small frag. menta of load were attached. A bullet hole was found in the skin. The body was in this condition when it was.in. terred in Cypress Hill cemetery last Sat- urday. Commander Schley was seen to-night [ on board the Thetls and declined to huve anything to say about the. state of the bodles more than he nvu to the public in his first official dis “Did you see Henry's bodyl" he was 13 | anked.” 1 did not."” “Of what did he di “‘Starvation, or Aourvy, 1 believe, the same as the others.” “‘Do you know whether he was shot?" “1 am not J)replred to answer that question,” said the commander, hurried- ly, ‘and furthermore I positively decline to be interviewed, When an official in- uiry is made into the details of the trip 1bal say what I have to say, if any- thing, and not before,” and without nlmuthur word the commander hurried be- ow. —— Twenty Millions in silver, Philadelphia Record, A well known Philadelphia citizen, J. 1. Boyle, has just returned from Vigo, Spain, where he has discovered, after a ! thorough and exhaustive exploration of the inner harbor of that town, a fleet of sunken Spanish galleons, sup- poeed to contain cot less than §20,000,.

This was refuscd and the Mormans began to show rosistance, One of the masked men walked in and knocked young Conden down with bis gun, breaking his skull. Hudson fired and fatally wounded one of the masked men, who proved to be David Hinson, a well- known farmer of Hickman county., ‘Lhe masked mon then opened u genoral fito in the crowd, Two of the elders wero killed out- right. One ran behind Condon’s wife and a shot struck the woman on the log, breaking it.

And a A CARD. - and ludiscroti dcay, loss of ill “blow” In Nebraska is different from what it is in 1llinois, The ordinary sum- mer breeze of Nebraska would make an Illinoisan hunt his cyclone cellar, and what a Nebraskan calls a blow isa widely difforent sort of arrangement. Cyclones are not common in the great treeless stato this year. We were out there a fow days since, and learned that they did not average more than three a week Occasionally they have two in cne day, but not often. The Platte river has two channels. When the wind is in the south it fills one, when in the north the other, We are credibly informed by anold natlve-—one who came through with the *forty-niners—that the Platte some- times overflows its banks, and green peo- ple think it has boen’ raining above, when it is simply the wind blowing up stream; and, again, it goes almost en- tirely dry when the wind 18 down stream. All the stories of fish showers are true, and they are all blown out of the Platte, People go around in the evening regu- larly looking to see whether the cables that hold the houses to the ground are all secure, and it is nothing for them to sleop for hours with the house two or threo feet above the ground, They have a perfect contempt in that country for cyclono caves or cellars, and people who have pecome accustomed to the wind sa; they wouldn't give & snap for & bre that couldn't blow away a hole in the ground, In the absence of suitable materials or the time to prepare it, pecple often go L B B S kee's Dressing and you will never troublo youaself to make another, A COWBOY'S TALE, The Good O1d Days When Money was Plenty Down in Texas, Brooklyn Union A reporter of the Union noticed one of the *hangets on" around the Coney Tal. and race track riding a racer without sad- dle or blan The animal seemed more than ordinarily vicious, and would plunge from side to side, rear up on its hind legs and throw his head viotently toward the ground in his efforts to unseat the rider. But the man sat firmly and gracefully en the horse's back, and al- most seemed to be directing the ‘animals movements, 80 quietly did he adapt him- self to the changed position of the equine When the man had put the horse in the stable, he sauntered over to where the reporter was standing, and to the amaze- ment of the scribe betrayed not the slightest sign of having done some se- vere work, The reporter said to him: ‘‘You seem to have had a tough time with that an- imal?” “Nuthin’ tuff about that; why, that's only child’s play. 1'm a ‘broncho’ rider, I am,” “How do you mean; a orl” ‘broncho’ rid- “Now, gill, what'er yer given' us! Don't you know what a broncho is, or a mustang, or a pony that cowboys in the west genorally use!” *‘Are bronchos and harder to ride than the animal you have just been rid- ing?” Wall, I should mile, yon sce that horse | was just riding simply jumped. His legs went free and his body went free. Well a broncho doesn't jump, he ‘bucks,” that's what he does.” What's the difference between ing and jumping?” *‘Well, you are a tenderfoot sure enough. = A pony when he bucks gets his fore feet right in under him, and then he springs right into the alr and comes down stiff legged, just as if his legs were iron poles; and then there is this pecu- liarity: while he's comin’ down he gets his head nearly between his fore legs, and his tail under his belly, and makes a hump on his back like a camel; and when he comes down you bet a rider goes up. Well, he does that act about six times in succession, just as quick as you would count them. You see, when I rode that horse just now I gave with the horse; well, you can’t give with a ‘bucker.” There's no give there; yougot to make yourself stiff as iron and wear him out; that's the only way. Why, I've often got on a ‘bucking broncho,’ and staid there too, until the blood spurted out of my nose and ears, and | felt as if 1 was twins,” ““Whero was that!" “Out in the west. fornia.” “What were you doing there?” “Principally herding cattlo and sich.” “Oh, indeed! You were & cowboy, then!” “That's what 1 was.” “You ought to have an story to relate.” “Now you're shoutin’. That's what 1 have and I could tell you it, too, if there was a place to sit down,” and the *‘hang- er-on” looked loungingly at the bar where beer was sold, and then at the re- porter. The scribe took the hint and shortly afterward the ,*‘bucking broncho buck- Texas and Cali- interesting rider” twag_smilling ~ bohind a large achooner of beor. - S0 you were a real comboy” said the reporter, and visions of wild cattle and bucking bronchos danced before his vis- ion, while the reformed cowboy emptied one schooner and called for another. ““That’s what I was, but then a cow- boy ain’t what he used to be. Four- teen years ago I went to Texas, and after knocking around a bit, I gota job as a cowboy for a big cattle owner in the southern part of the state. Oh, them was the times, though. One hundred dollars a month an’ found, and six ponies ayear to kill if you liked, and a share in all the cattle you could steal. Well, sir, thero was one year there that 1 cleared 86,000 in good hard cash, *What did you do with it?” “Blew it in, of course. Mexican monte and red liquor got it all, every cent. You see it was_this way | made the raise. We started to drive a herd of 100 head of cattle into Colorado for sale, about 1,500 miles. Well, of course we run across stray cattle that had no brands on them, Sometimes we'd got only one and sometimes twenty. Well, we drove and drove, killed a fresh beef every day and only eat the tenderloin, Oh, but we did live! Well, at any rate, wo kept drivin’ and killin’ and collectin’ strays all the way till wo got to Denver, It took us over three months, and when we struck Denver that herd of 100 head had become 2,000, and we sold them all at §16 a hunl and the four of us and the man wo worked for, which made five, divided the stuff. That’s how 1 made the §6,000 at a lick. We used to do that right straight along until about eight yoars ago. But then eight years ago wages commenced to be cut down, and the first thing I knew I was getting $60 a month, and then %50 and hen $40, 80 I thought to myself I'd git out. You see the fellahs kepta comin' in from the cast and the south, and owded us out. Of course as became plenty the wages became acarce, until to-day tho cowboy gits only £20 or §20 a mouth and no chance to make at all There is no more big cattle drives. You know a feller when he wants to send his cattle away for sale he packs them on the cars and there’s an end of it. Everything's the same; wages is all cut down, and there's no chance for nobody, as 1 said before. Why, fourteen yoars ago an_enterprising cowboy could start out with his broncho and lep and be able to sell a herd of cattle 500 miles away. But now you see not only is all the cattle branded, but all the brands is rogistored, and uvurythmg hows up on Its face. And then, again, there’s so many cattle associations, You see, these associations are gotten up for the protec- tion of the cattle dealers, as they say, and the{‘ hire cowboys and do the herding for all the small ranchmen in the coun- try. That's another reason why there's no more money in the business now. A cowboy used to be somebody, but now he's only a farm hand.” “*What sort of a life is that of a cow- boy?" *1 tell you stranger, it's a holy terror, In the spring, summer and fall the cow- boy is in the saddle night and day; if he sloeps at all it is on the ground, wet or dry, Cattle are collected at’' a certain point and started on thedrive for differ- ent places. When they reach the first shipping point cattle of a certain brand have to be soparated from the uthun,lud that's where the work comes in, May you see a bunch of 200 cattle, and mthnt 200 want ten of a certain brand. You %0 to cut them outand the whole lot stampede across the prairie, Of course then's the time you have to ride. Well, you get the ten out and may be you've been at it two hours and may be ten, Then again the drive takes the catt'e into a strauge place. Sowme of the herd ers are put on watch; thoy take their turns at this; some watch while others sleep. The watching is done this way: Tho cattle are all rounded up and finally restin’ quiet. Well, the cowboys on the watch ride round and round the cat- tle, carryin’ lamps, 80 that the boss “of the camp can see ’whnt they're movin’, Well, everything’s 10ing nice for awhile, until ssme bloody yote, who's prowlin’ around for grub, gots & kick {or a_horn from a steer and lets out a yowl that 'ud make your hair |stand on end. The cattle give ;a snort and off they go in every direction, The whole camp has to get out and after them, and maybe it's a week before the whole herd is got back, and maybe they're never got back. Then again comes the brandin’ time, when every one has to take a hand in, and maybe get horned or run on by a wild steer. And they think a fellow’s goin’ to do all that as knows his business for $20 a month. Not much. The cowboys nowadays is all farm hands, That's all.” “Did you ever know a cowboy to save money " W knew only one, but then (he killed himself.” ““‘How was that?” *Well, you see it was while I was on this ranch in Texas. It was near San Diego, right by the Rln Grande, Well, there was about ten of us on the ranch and I tell you we used to make the place 50 lively you'd think it was on springs, Bat anyhow there came to the ranch one night a big Dutchman. He was dirty and ragged, and said he was hungry, The clothes he had on him was all patches, He was a walkin’ patch, tbat's what he was, Anyhow, he comes up to the ranch and he says, seys he, ‘I'm hungiy and tired and got no work.” Well, we took him in and the boss gave him a job, We used to go out together about once a month to blow in our stuff. Well, that Dutchman used to come with us every time and git blind, stavin’ drunk on cur money and never blow inacent. We stood this thing for four months, and finally we noticed that the Dutchman didn't even gt a new outfit. Well, none of us was ‘much on clothes, but that Dutchmon was a cure, He kept tho same pants on he had when he come, only they was more patches on- to them. Well finally, one night when we was all pretty full, one of us, a fel- low named Fred Nickerson, ‘Whoop 'em Nick’ we used to call him, when we was all drinking together, got an idea. He says, says he, ‘Boys, do you know what I think? 1 think every ons of them patches on Dutchey’s pants is money. Well, we all laughed. But says he. “You fellows may laugh, but I'll bet the drinks that Dutchey sews his *boodle” in his trousers, and that’s what them paiches mean. Suppose we hold him up and see/’ We jumped at the idea right away, gets our bronchos, and goes to hunt Dutchy up. Well, we finds him goin’ out of town on his broncho, and we gots a talkin’ to him easy like, and Nick pulls out his cun and says: *Throw up your hands, Dutchy,’ Up goes Dutchy’s hands and we takes his gun away from him and makes him get off his pony. Nick then says: *‘Take off “your pants, Dutchy.’ *Well, he begged and bogged, but it was no go. Wemade him take them off, and sure , overy patch was money. He ,800 ‘sewed up in them pants, Well, we asked Dutchy to come and have a time with us, but no, he wouldn’t go. We went to town and painted it red tor two days and Dutchy went to the ranch, got another gun and died. When we came back to the ranch we had to bury that Dutchman; the whole top of his head was blown off! Some thought he committed suicide and some thought it was_an_accident. But anyhow he was dead. But then these were the good old days. Things aint what they was, and I'm going to get into some other busi- ness. I'll take another beer and that'll be the last. Here's to you.” —— Angostura Bitters do ngt only disti guish themselves by their flayor and aromatic odor above all others generally used, but they are also a sure preventive for all discases orie- inating from the digestive organs.
