ton , n student and hunter of the buffalo In
the old da } s , lias Interested himself In the
question of prcxcntliiL ; tlielr \turinliintlon ,
and has done \Urnt ho could to bring the
matter to the attention of congress. Un
fortunately nil attempts at legislation for
the protection ot this unlmal , Bn > s a corre
spondent of the Ncxx' York Times , have been
In vain , nnd the result Is that up\xard of
6,000,000 were slaURhtered In nn Incredibly
short space of time nearly 4,000,000 killed
In three > cnrs until noxv thrrc are not oxer
1,000 , of these animals running wild In North
America. Such \\nnton destruction of a
valuable beast , purely nnd distinctively
American tn Its character. Is unprecedented
In the history of the \\orkl.
The familiarity of the Americans with the
buffalo seems to have bicd contempt , for
the great number ot these animals has led
the people to think of them as animals
which xxere valuable only for vxhat their
skins would bring In the market. But
oxxlng to the vast destruction of the herds ,
and the fact that the reduced number hus
Increased the price ot the aklns and the
other products , there has conio n revulsion
of. popular fccnllmcnt In leganl to them , and
they have become very valuable In the eyes
of the general public , and , It Is necdliss to
say , In the ejcs of those surviving among
the old hunters vxhn can now get large sums
of money for the robes nnd skeletons.
rillST DISCOVERY.
The earliest discovery of the bison In
eastern North America xxns made some
where near Washington , In the District of
Columbia , In 1012 , by an English naviga
tor named Samuel Argoll. The mm alive
of the explorer affoids no distinct clewOB
to the precise locality of this dlscovcij
but as It Is doubtful whether this mariner
went very far from the head of navigation
of the Potomac , vxhlch Is nt Washington , It
Is highly probable Hint the bison was found
In the District of Columbia. Ktoin that time
on the bison xxas seen by explorers In al
most every state In the union except the
country lying far to the xxest of the Rock
ies and along the coast of the Pacific. In
those rtavs they ranged from Mexico In
the south , far north to the Great Slave
lake above the sixtieth degree of latitude.
Of all the quadrupeds that have lived
upon the earth. Mr. Hornaday says that
probably no other species has ever mar
shaled such Innumerable hosts as those
of the American bison. It would have been
ns easy to count or to estimate the num
ber of leaves In the forest as to calculate *
the number of buffaloes living at any given
time during the history of the species up to
1870. Even In South Central Africa , which
has alxva > s been so prolific In gieat herds
of game , It Is piobable that all Its quad
rupeds taken together on an equal area
would never have more than equaled the
total number of buffaloes In this country
forty or fifty years ago. To the African
hunter such a statement might seem In
credible , but Mr. Hornaday says that It Is
fully warranted by the lltcratuie ot both
branches of the subject. Mr. John Fllson , In
1784 , wrote of the Blue Licks In Kentucky'
"The amazing herds of buffalo which resort
thither by their size and number fill the
traveler with astonishment and terror , es
pecially when he beholds the prodlqlous
roads they have made from all quarters , as
if leading to some populous city. " In 1770
where Nashville now stands , were immense
numbers of buffaloes and other wild game
The country was black vxlth them. Daniel
Boone found vast herds of buffaloes grazing
In the valleys of east Tennessee , between
the spurs of the Cumberland mountains
Betxxeen the Rocky mountains and the state *
lying along the Mississippi river , and the
west from Minnesota to Louisiana , the whole
country was one vast buffalo range , Inhab
ited by millions of buffaloes.
HERDS ON THE PLAINS.
A volume could be filled with the records
of plainsmen and pioneers who pcnetratce
this vast region In the early part of the
eentury , nnd w ho w ere "astounded by the
number of buffaloes they observed. Colone
Dodge described a herd which he saw on
the Arkansas river. According to his ru
corded observations , the herd extended aloni
the river for a distance of twenty-five miles
which was In reality the width of the vast
procession that was moving north and back
from ( he road as far as the eye could rtatl
on both sides. At a low estimate the grouni
visible from the road where Colonel Dodge
was driving , which was covered by the
herd , extended for a mile. This wnul <
give a strip of country two miles wldo an <
twenty-five long , or a total of fifty square
miles covered with buffaloes , averaging at
Colonel Dodge's estimate from fifteen tc
twenty to the acre. By the lesser number
fifteen , It Is found that the number actu
ally seen on that day by Colonel Dodge
was In the nelghborhoood of 480,000. If the ,
advanlng herd had been at all points fitly
miles In length , as It was known to have
been In some places , by twenty-five miles
In width , nnd still averaging fifteen head to
the acre , it would have contained the enor
mous number of 12,000,000 head , but , Jutg- ]
Ing from the principles which governed
their periodical migrations , the moving
mass probably advanced In the shape of n
wedge , which would leave about 4,000,00 (
as a fair estimate of the actual number of
buffaloes In the great southern herd , It Is
no wonder , therefore , that the men of the
west of those days , both white und red
thought It would bo Impossible to exter
minate such a mighty multitude. The In
dians of some tribes believed that the buf
faloes Issued from the earth continually nm
that the supply was Inexhaustible ; and yet
In four years that southern herd was al
most totally extinct. "With such n lesson
before our eyes , " said Mr. Hornaday , "con
firmed In every detail by living testimony ,
who will dare to say that there will he an
elk , a moose , caribou , mountain goat , moun
tain sheep , antelope or black tail deer left
nllve in the United State's In a wild btatc
fifty years from this date , or oven twenty-
five ? "
DUCKING TRAINS.
The AtchUon , Topcka & Santa Ke railroad
was , In 1871 nnd 1872 , In process of construc
tion nnd nowhere could the peculiarities of
the buffalo be better studied than from Itn
tialns. If a held was on the north side
of the track It would stand stupidly Ka/ilng ,
without a symptom of alarm , although tht
locomotive pKBsed within 100 yards ; but If
the buffaloes were on the south sldo of
the track , even though at a distance of one
or two miles from It , the passage of the
train set the whole herd In the wildest
commotion , and at full speed , utterly re-
cordless of congfijucnces , It would make
far the track. If the train happended nol
to be In the patTi cf the buffalo It crossed
the track and stopped satisfied , but If the
( lain was in Its way each Individual buffalo
went at It with the desperation of despali ,
plunging against or between locomotive am
cars , just us its blind madncs chanced to
direct It , Numbers were killed , but greater
numbers still pressed on to stop and stare
as soon as the obstruction had been passed
After having trains thrown off the track
twice In one vxeek. conductors learned to
have respect for the idiosyncrasies of the
buffalo.
Tle buffalo of the past was on animal o !
very low order of Intelligence , and his dull
ness of Intellect Is considered to have been
one of the most Important factors In his
phenomenally fcxvlft destruction. He wns
provoklngly sloxv In comprehending the ex
istence of the dangers that threatened his
life , and would often stand quietly and fee
two or three score , or even 100 , of hl
kindred and companions shot down before
hl eyes , with no other feeling than one of
itttpld wonder and curiosity. Neither the
noise nor smoke of the rifle , the fall , strug
gling , nor final death of his companions
conveyed to his mind the Idea of a danger
( a be fled from. I.Ike the Indians , and
many white men alco , the buffaloes seemed
to feel that their number was HO great tbat
It could never senilbly be diminished , but
jyilb. the approach oX extermination gncj
ho breaking up of nil the herd * , n com-
ilrtc change wna brought about In the chiu-
ncter of the animal. The cr ek of the rlflo
nnd Its accompany Ing puff ot smoke con
voyed to the slow mind of the bison n BCIIKO
of danger to hlmeclf ; nt lart ho rccognbcd
nan us his mortal enemy , And nt Inst he
earned to run. In 1SSO the scanty remnant
of the * great northern herd were the wildest
nnd most dldlcult animals to kill ever hunted
n nny country ,
ailBW WAIIY TOO 1ATIJ.
H hml only been through the Iccenost ex-
erti < e ot their unknown powers ot kclt-
ircservntlon that those buffAloa had sur
vived to late n day , and they were us
swift ns nntelopc nnd AS wary. The Instant
a buffalo caught sight of n ninii , oxen IhniKh
n mlle distant , he put off at the top ot his
spctd , nnd genet ally made for tump wild
region sevcrnl miles away. In llci'lnx troni
in enemy a buffalo ran ngnlnst the vxlnd ,
In order that his keen scent might save
lilm from the danger of running Into noxv
enemies , This < xns his nwn Idea nlunc
nnd not In keeping with the habits ot uny
other animal In this or other loitntilcs as
for as Is known Notwithstanding this. hoxv.
ever , the buffalo of recent days was also n
stupid rensoncr Be would deliberately walk
Into a quicksand where hundleds of hit ,
fellows were nlrendy engulfed. He would
quit feeding , rim hnlf n mile , nnd then innh
headlong Into a moving train of euii that
happened to como between him and the-
main herd. A. herd of n thousand bultnloeK
would allow an armed hunter to gallop Into
their midst within arm's length , and any ot
the bulls nearest him might ea lly have

total cash value of all the mateilal derived

thnt In a single year the film 01 Joseph
Ullnian , 1C5 Mercer street , New Yoilc , paid
out 5210,250 for robes and hides , the fact
does not seem too Inci edible.
THE STILL , HUNT.
Of nil the dcadlv methods of buffalo
slaughter , the "still hunt" was the dead
liest. It xxas destitute of ncaily every cle
ment of the buoyant spice of danger that
accompanied buffalo hunting on horseback ,
and today It Is consldcied to have been
mere butchery of the tamest and yet most
cruel kind. About It theic was none of
the true excitement of the chase. The chnbo
on horseback furnished sport of n supeiloi
kind , keenly exhilarating , with an clement
of danger. In the excitement and eagerness
of which the horse shared vxlth the ilder.
To be successful In this chase required a
good hoi Be , a bold rider , a firm seat and
perfect familiarity with weapons When
ever the huntcis discovered a herd of buf
falo , they usually got to leexvmd of It and
quietly rode forwaid In n body , or stretched
out In a skirmish line. Usually the animals ,
with a confidence due more to their gnat
numbers than anything else , would allow a
party to approach within fiom 200 to 40 (
yards of their flank , and then they woulc
start off on a slow trot. The hunters then
put spurs to their horses and dashed for
ward. The fatal spot on a buffalo Is twelve
to eighteen Inches In circumference , and Is
situated Immediately back of the foreleg , so
that a man , even If a poor shot , keeping his
nerve , was almost sure to bring down hla
game at close range , seldom , If ever , wasting
a shot. The dangers , of course , were many
and on almost every round-up accidents oc
curred , a few of which every year were fa
tal.
tal.But with the still hunt all was different.
So long as the chase was the order of the
day , It ordinarily required the united ef
forts of from fifteen to tx\cnty-flvo hunters
to kill 1,000 buffalo In a single season , but
a single still hunter with a long-range
breech-loader , who Itncxv hon to make a
"sneak" and "get a stand on a bunch , '
often succeeded In killing from 1,000 to
.1,000 In a single season by his own unaided
efforts. Captain Jnck Bridges of Kansas ,
who was one of the first to begin the final
slaughter of the southern herd , killed by
contract 1,142 buffaloes In six weeks. By
daylight the still hunter sallied forth on
foot , carrying In his hand his huge Sharps
rifle , weighing from sixteen to nineteen
pounds , with from seventy-live to 100 loaded
cartridges In his two belts or bags nt his
side. From his belt hung his ripping knife ,
his skinning knife , and a butchci's steel ,
upon which to sharpen them. The totnl
weight was seldom less than thirty-six
pounds , nnd often more. Having selected
a position within 100 to 250 yards of his
game , although the distance was sometimes
greater , the hunter got a comfoi table rest
for his huge rifle , nnd , all the time keeping
his oxvn presence thoroughly hidden from
view , estimated the distance , carefully ad
justed his sights , and deliberately began
business. If the herd xxas moving , the nnl-
mal In the lead was the first one shot. If
the herd was at rest , the oldest cow , which
was usually the leader , was the first one
killed. The noise would stnrtlc the buffaloes
and they would stare at the little cloud
of white smoke nnd feel Inclined to run ,
but seeing their leader hesitate , they would
wait for her , but she would fall to the
ground and the other mcmbeis of the herd
would go on grazing. The policy of the
hunter was not to fire too rapidly , but to
attend closely to business and shoot down
any buffalo which attempted to make off.
Ono shot per minute was a moderate ) rate
to fire , but under pressure of clicumsUanccs
two per minute could be discharged with
deliberate precision ,
SYSTEMATIC SLAUGHTER.
The period of systematic slaughter of the
bisons began In a businesslike , wholesale
way , although the species had been steadily
driven westward from the neighborhood of
the Atlantic coast for a hundred years by
the advancing settlements , and during all
that time had been hunted for the meat
and robes , but Its extermination did not be
gin In earnest until 1S20 , or thereabouts By
that time the bison was totally extinct In
all the regions lying cast of the Mississippi
river , except In a portion of Wisconsin ,
where it survived until about 1830. The
American Tur company establish ! d a post
In 182C at the eastern base of the Hocky
Mountains , at the bend of the Arkansas
river , and In 1832 another was set up In n
corrtBpeuidlnjj situation at the head of the
south fork of the riatte , near where Denver
now stands. Krorn these posts the killing
of the buffalo was directed
In 1840 the lied river half-breeds In Min
nesota began making a business of buffalo
hunting , and the other Indians of the coun
try shortly took It up as a business with
which to better their condition by barter
with the white traders. The Western rail
roads had their share In the extermination
of the buffalo , for when they vxc-ro built
many men now to the country cume out
and slaughtered the animals for uport or
for food. During the yearn from 1871 to
1874 little was done In Kansas and adja
cent states but buffalo killing , Kvery one
xvas willing to kill buffalo , but few wcrit
willing to do the skinning and curing ,
Thousands upon thousands were killed for
their tongues alone and never skinned ;
thousands more were wounded by unskill
ful marksmen and wandered off to die
alone. ! ) y the close of the bunting season
ot 1875 the great southern herd had ceased
to exist ; an a body It had been practically
annihilated. In three years 3 C'J8,730 anl-
mala had been killed , and the body of the
uurvlvors , about 10,000 head , fled southxveet
late tlijj wild , dfuoUte , uninhabited country.
