Washington, Jan. S—A new herd
of bisoL just btcu ost !L,hed
by the Agricultural Detriment.
There are now five herds under gov
ernmcet supervision, totaling a few
more than 330 animals The new
herd was procured by the Society
for the Preservation of the Ameri
can Bison from the Bronx Park
herd in New York City; and was
shipped to Wind Cave .National park
in South Dakota.
This latest acquisition includes
15 animals, the youngest being two
years old. Forty acres oi the park
have been fenced for a pasture. The
size will be greatly increased next
spring, llay will e provided for
the Uox-d during the wiuter, as the
grub3 on tho forty acre space will
very soon be eaten off. Contracts
will s<-on be let for feeding four
thousand acres of the ten thous
and comprising this national reser
vation, and the hard turned loose
in it next spring, after which they
will fori-o'e for their own food alto
gether.
Latest figures furnished place
the number of bison in the United
States and Canada at more than
3,000. A few years ago less than
a hundred were known to exist in
the world. One government herd,
started in 190y with 37 animals
lias increased to 90.
The ilson herds owned by the
government are now uistribu;ed in
Wi.id Cave Nation.4 Park, Niobrara
National Park, Nebraska, Montana
National Park, and Wichita Forest
Reserve, i i Kansas and Oklahoma.
The la-goat herd owned by the
government is tho Yellowstone Park
Herd. The last reports of the war
den showed 143 fenced animals,
ana forty-nine wild ones. i)r. Ilenry
W. Henshaw, chief of tlio Biologi
cal Survey, believes ihe abnormal in
crease of the fenced animuls is be
cause the tamer animals steal the
calves of the wild animals.

THE LITTLE
MEXICAN
By DANIEL C HALE
I was In Mexico examining a mine
for New York capitalists when Presi
dent Madero was assassinated and
Huerta took his place.
Fortunately for me, 1 hail completed
my work when the revolution broke
out and managed to get a train for
Vera Cruz, where I intended to em
bark for the United States. It was
not a pleasant journey by any means.
No one knew whether the new gov
ernment would permit the train to go
through or intercept it on the way for
the purpose of getting its hands on an
enemy or whether adherents of the
old regime would take revenge on
some one who had been prominent in
bringing about the change. At a little
station barely ten miles frojn Vera
Cruz the train stopped and remained
stationary so long that I concluded to
walk the rest of the way.
Everybody went about armed, and
I was no exception to tho rule. But I
had my vouchers about me that I was
a United States citizen, and I relied
for safety more on being able to prove
myself a foreiguer than on my arma
ment. though I confess it would have
been better for me to have been al
most any other foreigner than a gringo.
I am a good walker apd be!iev?d I
would be able to do the distance in
from two to two and a half hours, I
stepped out briskly, enjoying the
stretching of my legs far more than
sitting in a train which for all any one
could find out might remain where It
was till another revolution had been
accomplished. As I walked I remem
bered that 1 was on the read Cortes
anil his adventurers passed over when
they were beginning their memorable
march to the capital of Montezuma. I
looked ahead, fancying that I could
see their head of column coming up
the declivity.
1 didn't see the truiikxt spawara, out
I did see tlie back of a man—rather a
boy he seemed—walking ahead of me
aud in the same direction I was going.
I soon caught up with him. and from
his dark complexion, bis coal black
eyes and Ions lashes I knew hlra to
be a Mexican. There was no one near
us. and I accosted him In Spanish,
which I spoke indifferently, bidding
him good day and remarking that It
was a fine morning.
He seemed very shy. But the Mexi
can people have not that self reliance
common among us of the United
States, and 1 did not expect him to
meet me halfway. Besides, he -was
boyish looking and even for a boy del
icate in appearance. The only sign of
ruggedness about him was a color in
his cheeks. lie looked at me askance
and as though he had no desire for my
company until I told him that I was a
citizen of the United States, when he
began to ask me questions about how
he should get from Vera Cruz to an
American port when and tQ what
point the steamer sailed, what was tho
fare and other information desirable
for one who Intended to make the
Journey.
I told him what I knew on the sub
ject and then began to talk about oth
er things. I found him willing to con
verse except upon the subject of the
revolution. No sooner did I mention
anything, however remotely connected
with the revolution, than he shut up
like an oyster.
Occasionally I would glance aside at
him when I knew he was not aware of
it and saw on his face indications that
he was uuder the Influence of some
powerful emotion. I would have liked
to gain his confidence that I might
learn what moved him, but I did not
believe this possible, so 1 did not try.
However, as we proceeded on our way
together he ceased to appear anxious
to get rid of me, and before we readi
ed Vera Cruz he seemed to consider
me something of a protector.
Finally 1 ventured to ask him about
what he would do at Vera Cruz, and
he told me he was going to sail on the
first vessel leaving for the United
States. I replied that 1 was going
also aud we would be fellow passen
gers together. When we were enter
ing the city he surprised me by hand
ing me l»is puvso and asking me to buy
his steamer ticket for him.
Fortunately for us both a steamer
was to sail early the nest morning,
and we were permitted to go aboard at
once. The young man retired to his
stateroom, and I saw him no more
that day.
In the morning 1 was walking the
deck while the ship was making some
ten knots nn hour over the gulf. 1
saw coming up the companionway the
counterpart of the boy who had been
my fellow traveler tl»e day before.
But this person was a girl. The first
thing that caught her eye on emerging
from below was the stars and stripes
flying from the peak. A relieved ex
pression came over her face, and I
knew she was saying to herself,
"Thank heaven!"
"Aha, senorita!" I said. "I suspect
ed yesterday that yon were not mas
culine."
"Oh, senor," she replied, "you were
very good to me. At first I' wished to
get rid of you. but at last I felt that
you were my protector."
During the voyage I saw much of
the girl and gained her promise on my
own promise of secrecy to tell why she
left Mexico in disguise. When coming
into port she relieved my curiosity.
"My brother," she said, "was one of
those who were reported killed -while
trying to escape. 1 stabbed to the
heart the man who shot him"
