LAST OF THE BUFFALOES 0. J. Jones' Great Herd of Bicon Arrives in Omaha, ALL THAT IS LEFT OF THE MILLIONS An Tnteresting Tealn of Stock Cars Untoaded At frvington—Scenes at the Sta- thon - Thelr New ¥ « Helgh me wt Hale Addition. A slecpy stillness broods over the little vil Jage of Irvington at all times and on sun shiny Sundays its dreamy peaco and quiet became solomn fn intensity. The usual farm toams are missing trom tho hitching railia front of “'the store” and the half dozen gos- #ips who sit balanced on the bridge whittling sticks and chowing straws have on their “otker coats’ and a suitable Sabbath expres. sion of countenance, The pipo of the quail in the meadows, now &0 intensely green, rings out startlingly clear and sweet and tho meadow lark and brown thrush whistle in concert to the gurgling accompaniment of tho Little Pappio. Itis anidyllic Sabbath and even ing of tho telegraph i is & dese the monotonous t struments in the railway station All this was rudely interrupted Sunday when Buffalo Jones’ great herd of bison was pulled in to the station cooped up in cattle cars over the same ground whero onco their forafathers had held supremo sovereiznty and tho thunder of the tread of their mighty armics had made the hills tremole, They had fust como from Plum Creek on o special train of five cattle cars, and the men and ponies who accompanied them looked ns Af thoy hiad been through a siege—and they had. The unlonding was exciting, but noth- ing to the work of getting them into the cars, Buffalo Joues was not with the train him self. He bad had his thumb caught in o ropo whilo rounding up the auimals and nearly lost it His work was done by Mr. W. H. Crary. What a Buffalo Looks Lixe. Noarly everyone has scen tho American buffalo—at leasu in - pictures, and rewarked his resemblanco to a ‘Texas stecr gone to sced. Ho docs rosemble a steer, but mighty little, fle also resembles a cau of dynamito 1 action; a pile driver when he strikes the doorof a box car; a mule in tho region of his hind legs, that i3 the mulo of the obsoleto sort which kicked the stars from the skics. As a wholo tho buffalo, judging from th specimens unloaded at” Irvington is remarkable dnstitution. hese animals constitute what is known as the Buffalo Jones’ herd of bison,one of the very few families of survivors of the uoble anifaals which once co ed the praivies like sands of tho desert and whose skeletons by millions have bleached on the pluins. Be sidos the hierd protectea by the United States government in the national park there are perhaps half a dozen others in differcnt por- tions of the country and sowme individuals in public parks and gardens. Of the wild ml- lious there is not now supposed to ve a singlo ouo living. In 1855 there were only eighty-five living and theso have dis appeared. A peculiar interest attaches to the melanencly remnants beld in captivity,of which this herd 1s one of the finest in ox- Istenc The majority of these animals Mr. Jones himself ran down, lassocd aud tied with his own hauds. For years ho made an annuai pilgrimage o the umnbabited “pavhandle’ of Texas to capturc calves out of the small herd remaining there. Each of these expedi tions mvolved a great outlay of money and an elaborate ouitfit of men, wagons, horses and camp equipage. The feats of skill and dar. g accompiizhed in these expeditions surpass auything over written of or accomplished in the chase and capture of wild gawe In IS8, during the month of May, b party not only captured scven calves, but also eleven adult cows of whiich some were lassoed in full career on the prairie, thrown, tied aud hobbled. Tho majority, however, wero actually rounded up, herded and held in control until a bunch of tame bufTaloes were driven to meet them, 80 that it would thus bo possible to drive all together to a raxch. The herd consists of o maenificent group of thorougt:bred buffalo bulls and cows pe- sides a large number of half bred domestics aud a half dozen Gettd & Them O th Cars, Tho train with its strango load pulled int tho station at Irvington yesterday at 5 o'cloc in the afternoon and the work of unloading begea. Unloading buffaloes is not unloading cattie, and thero are times when this latter overation is not devoid of excite ment. Tho first car contained the ‘“‘domesti which were turned loose and eantered down the shoot and into the pen with a aclighted frisk of the tait. Then came the buftalo cows, which had been separated from their calves and were feeline ratber viclus. A heay plank fence bad separated the “domestics from thiese, and Lwo or thres wiry built herd- ersin top boots, furry jackeis and wido briwmed felt hats Lwok their lives in their hands und an ax and went in to bre down the feoce Ono blow of the ax loosened the ton board und ouo blow of the nearest cow's hugo hend nailed it on again. But the fenco went down in time und the fan began, with curious spo: tators cliuging to every available fe to watch it. One of the felt hat gentlemen stole quiotly up to tho outside of the car and, Wwhile the nearest cow was busy trying to kick windows in the one belind her, sueaked & rope noose over her horns and backed away yelling, “take her away.” Tro half a dozen inen on the other end of the rope were braced and ready and the cow was swung rouna to the car door before she kuew just what wus going on. Hore sho grasped the situation and pitched he 1f down on the floor with a snort of rage. Uer little round eyes glowed liko coals of fire through the thick hair which covered hier head and her breath whistled through her nostrils like steam from an oxhaust pive. Suddenly sho bounded forward and down tho shoot as if shot from » catapult and crashed iuto the gate ut the lower end. Then the rope tight- ened vnd gradually while the furious animal bounced like a rubber vall, charging right and loft with her massive nhead, sho was drawn to the fence and tho rope was cut, One by one the wholo Lerd was brougnt out in the same way. Sowe of the buls are magniticent animals and two of them known 8s ' Jumbo and “Dick,” would serve for wodels for paters, Dick is black with o head liko the end of a box car.

The sult of Pierro elix and other half breed Indians against Colonel M. T, Patrick and various othor poople living in the north orn part of tho city was decidal by the United States supreme court fav yesterday in of Patrick and tho otlier occupants of tho lands, Thero was a now and novol question in this case which mado ivof great interest, as well the fact that it invoivea title to property now worth §1,500,000. In 1854 Sophia I%elix, & half-breed of tho Santee-Sioux tribe, living 1 Minnesota, un- der the treaty of Prario du Chien, became owner to ludian land script upon which she was entitied to locate and elaim in all 450 acres, Some time in 1560 she parted with part of this land seript and at tho same time cxecuted a quit claim deed and a blank power of attorney. In 1561 Colouel M. I\ Patrick camo into’ possossion of a sufficient mount of this land serip to locate 120 acres, and ulso 1nto possession of the power of at- torney and the quit claim deod. Colonel Patrick located the scrip on 120 acres of land in tho northern part of what 18 now the city of Omaba, and which has since been subdivided into Patrick’s addition, Lo*s in that locality have been sold to a largo num- vor of people, who have erected over 1,000 dwellings on’tho land, besides stores, fac- tories and strect car barns. The ecity bos paved the streots and buiit sewers and the wator company laid mains and conuection through it Patrick and the people to whom ho sold iots havo been occupyiug the land for about thirty years. At'tho time _of tho location of this land scrip Soptia_elix was a member of an In- dian tribe. She aud her husband, however, soon afterwards died, leaving her brothers and sisters as her heirs. In 158%: tho plaintiffs in the suit, a haif dozen half-brecds, brought suit in the United States court in Omaha to recover ail of this property. The case was argued boforo Judges Brewer und Dundy, who decided in favor of tho occupants of the land. Tho caso was afterwards corried to the United States supreme court and there argued by Judge Stipman and General Cowin for the Indiaus and by Hon. John L. Wevster for Patrick and the other occupants, It was contendad by tho attorneys for the Indian plantiils that the statute of limitations and the doc- trine lsches could not be applied in tins case against tho Iudians because the Indians, during the irty vears, were members of a tribe and suvjoct o tribal relations, aud wero therefore wards of the government and sub- ject to the jurisdiction of congress and the commissioncr of Indian affairs; they, there- fore, had no right to bring on and maintain any suits in the United States courts for the recovery of property “hesc udians by virtue of an act of con- gress acceptod aliotments of land and thus severed tribal relations and became citizens of the United, States for the first timo in 1885, Tuis was aquestion that had never been decided by the supreme court of tho United States and perhaps never by any court. It was treated as a new ques'ion in the supreme court und argued about thirty days ago. A telegram received yesterday from the clerk of the supreme court conveyed :ho in- formation that the case haa been decided in favor of the Patricks and their grantors. et e s Catarrh Powder for tonsiletis.

Jacobson, chairman of tho finance committee of the council, was pres cnt atthe Board of Health meeting yvester- duy afternoon to inquire about the bill of John Nelson, amounting to about $50, for bavling dead animals. The chairman ap peared to be rather worked up on account of Pulaski's discharze. He said tho city council had contracted with Pulaski to haul the dead animals and he wanted to know which body e Infor- had the most authority, the council or tho Board of Mealth, The resolution of the board which severed the count's connection with dead animals was read, and then Mr. ybson was informed by Mr. Howell that the council had nov only apgroved the action of the Board of Health, but had also con- curr ain the pointineut of Niday., This led the matter. Commissioner Somers wanted the board’s opinion regarding the enforcement of the or dinance in referenco to throwing refuse in paved alleys, The board thought the ordi- uanco u good one and asked the doctor to eaforee it, A number of circulars giving directions and suggestions about caring for cases of contagious aiseuses huve been printed and will be left by an iuspector in the ueighbor hood wherever there is u contagious case, Inspector ettit reported Bennett's livery stuble on Capitol avonue to be in a filthy condition and without any sewer connections The board ordered the nuisance abated, Two complaints regarding the flithy con- dition of the street around the union depot were read aud the board will call the railway companies’ atieution to the fact, alse tho sewer inspector’s, as it is claimed that the wer there is stopped up, A chemist sent in an analysis of water fram three wells which were supposed to bo n bad eonaition, Pue wator 1a the wall B16 North Sixteenth street was declared unfit for use.

MORE PAVING BONDS ARE NOT NEEDED What Tlas Already Authorlzed Con- sidered Ample for the Season's Re. quirem Discussion of the Propositions Last Nights een The city council was in session a fow mo. ments last night with sixteen members in attendance, The Nebraska Central bond ordlnance. passed May 10, was repealod, and a new one, fixing the date for holding the election on June 16 instead of May 31 was introduced, read twico and reforred, The object of the new or torney Connell stated; was might be held on the same o that the county commissioners had fixed upon. Tho new ordinance included all of the amend: ments agreed upon by the railroad company and the council. There was another ordinance to issuo bonds, but it went tothe files by a unani- mous vote, This ordinance provided for voting upon the proposition to issua §25,000 additional intersection paving bond Mr. Lowry remarked that the city had 0,000 to expend for the paving of Intersection bonds, and that unless somebudy hustled the sum could not ba oxpended this season. He did not believe iu voting the bonds and running up to the limit. Kmergencios might arse, and if the bonds were voted the city would be powerless to incur an additional debt, even if 1t was absolutely necessary to have tho money. Mr. Lowry cited the fact that next season Sixteenth street, Sherman avenue, Dodge street, Faraame and several other streets that wero paved with wooden blocks would havo to be repaved. Mr, Munro thought that if the 50,000 for paving, alrcady voted, was judiciously ex- vended it would be enough for ono season. Mr. Iisasser _wanted to know what haa become of the §75,000 that it was proposed to expend for the extension of sewers. He was informed by City Attorney Counell that the limit had been’ reachcd on voting sewer bonds and that the proposition had to be given up until next soason. The ordinance correcting the number of the Park avenue paving district was read and referred.
