BRUISER SA.3I A.VD TUB: GRIZZLY
BY GEN. J. S. BRISBIN.
Wis were campaigning on the Crow,
and the crimp had been pitched m a
pretty little valley, through which
ran a pure stream of bright, cold wa
ter. The supper had been eaten,
camp-fires lighted, dipe3 filled, and
all were ready for the evening yarn.
Aranng the frontiersmen who accom
panied the expedition was Mr. Beldeu
the celebrated White Chief of the
Plains, and noted hunter, trapper.nnd
guide. I called upon him for story,
and, after thinking over his wild bor
der life for some time, as if to select
the choicest bits from his vast experi
ence, he related the following :
L was ope if the lirai men in 1858 to
arrive at Pike's Peak. I. came up
from the Missouri, with a friend of
my father, and we stopped at Denver,
or rather I t-hould say, where Denver
now is. for the city was then compos
ed of a few grog-shops and shanties.
In one of the minim: camps I became
acquainted with a queer fellow they
called "Bruiser Ham." He was a
powerful man. and sometimes drank
a great deal, but was always good-tempered
and kind hearted. The miners
were a rugh set in those days, and
delighted in the most brutal of sports.
Prize-fighting was one of their pas
times, and at this Bruiser Sum. excell
ed no man in the camps being able
to stand up long before him. His
feats of strength wereprodiyio'is. Of
tenwould he take a barrel of liquor
03' the ohimes, and. knocking out the
hung, lift it up and drink from the
hole, a- easily as if it were a small
keg. Then he would stand on a box
twelve inches high, and lift 180
pounds with his teeth. He could pick
up a three-bushel bag of flour with his
uiou'h ami carry it a rod. One day a
saloon keeper offended Sam. and. to
have revenge, he went out into the
street, and shouldering a large work
horse, carr ed it into the saloon, leav
ing the enraged bar-keeper to get it
out and down, the steps the best he
could. At another time lie carried a
rock into a store, and dropped it
through the floor.
Sam's skin was as white and smooth
as a girl's ; but all over his arms,
shoulders, and broad ciiest. were
bundles of knotty muscles as 1 rge as
olio's fi-t. He wa a well built fine
-leaking man. his waist being remark
ably small kips broad, the legs well
sat, and feet small. Once his face was
handsome, but whiskey had bleared
the eyes, and the nose was pimpled
and red ; still .Sam was a good looking
man, and, when dressed up in a new
buc-k-skin suit with yellow fringe, and
his. long brown hair combed out in
curis about his neck, he was the pic
ture of an athletic frontiersman.
H-iwever, Sam was fast degenerat
ing into a loafer ; he had left offworh
and gone to living by his strength,
just as thousands livejby their wits in
"the great cities. Any one would pay
for Sam's liquor to see him lift a bnr
rel by the ends and drink from the
bung hole, and occasional' he would,
by w;iy of variety, shoulder a horse or
a mule tor a glass of rum.
Dissipation told rapidly on "the
Man of'riteel," as he was called, and
when I -saw him in the spring, after
a winter's carousing, he had the-de-lerium
tremens, and it took five men
to hold him. His frame was waisted
awav, the knot of sinews were gone.
his chest drawn in. and the skin of
his body soft ami flabby.
It was about this time an old Eng
lishman named Jones arrived at the
mines, and, hearing of Sam, express
ed a desire to see him. Old Jones was
a well known prizefighter, but, of late
vears. had given un the ring himself
and turned trainer. Sam's fame exci
ted the envy of old Jones, and he no
eooner saw him than he offered to
fight Sam. The miners were aston
ished and tried to dissuade Jones from
his purpose, but nothing would do but
he must have a bout with Ham. So
the day was set. Sam was sick on
the morning of the fight, and looked
badly enough ; but bets ran two to
one on "the Man of SteeF'ugainst the
Englishman. Time was called, and
tne Englishman bounded into the
ring, while Sam came up slowly, and
looked languid and feeble ; but at the
very first pass, he hit John Bull be
tween the ees. and no amount of
sponging and bathing could iud ice
him 10 stand up again that day It
wa feared Sam had broken the Eng
lishm in's skull, hut he got abou in a
day or two, and soon afterward both
he and Sum disappeared from the sa
loons. The barkeepers were atonish
.ed. Sam did not come around any
more for his grog, and no one could
imxgine where he had gone or what
he was at. Foul play was beginning
to be suspected, when it leaked out
thet Sam was in training, and that
ths Englishman was bis trainer. Af
t r olii Jone- got that awful lick from
Sam's brawny fist, he gave him no
peace until he agreed to go into train
ing and accompany the Englishman
to England, there to fight the giants
of the prize ring. Jones had not
much money, but at his instigation a
in in named Dunham came over from
London with plenty of cash, and, as
soon as Dunham arrived, old Jones
quit, and the new Englishman be
came Sam's regular trainer.
I saw Sam once while he was In
training, and he looked well ; the
knots were on his arms again, and the
great chest firm and round. He had
been at his dumb bells, sand bagsaud
gum ballsabou six weeks, when, one
morning, he got mad uhoutsomething
knocked down both Dunham and old
Jones, and made his esoape from his
keepers into the street. Stopping at
the saloons and taking a.veral drinks,
-he did n -t forget it was his hour for
training, and amused himself by
knocking down every stout looking
fellow he met. Finally, after the
sheriff and half town had been whip
ped. S m was captured and put into
jail : lint here a new difficulty presen
ted itself, for the jail was not a strong
-one. and Sam swore he would instant
ly tear it down if they did not let him
out On promising that he would go
straight to his lodgings, the door was
opened and Sam kept his word, for
he went directly home and retired to
bed. The outbreak was so un ike
Sam's nat.ural disposition that every
one wa- at a Ios to account for it; and
goon afterward, another ebulition of
passion occurring, "the Man of
tsteers" trainers aoanuoneu nim in
disgust, and took themselves off East,
each carrying with him as a parting
gift from Sam a pair of black eyes and
a swollen nose.
Sam, now left to himself, fell to
drinking again, went about the sa
loons as of old. lifting barrels, pitch
ing stones and shouldering horses for
liquor. It was soon observed that he
was growing weak ; he lifted the bar
rels with difficulty, and prefered to
drink from a glass instead of a bung
hole. He grew thin 11 flesh, his mus
cles disappeared and ho became the
shadow of his former elf.
- At this tin e a number of shoulder
hittprs nnd desperadoes arrived at the
minps and gave some t ouble but ho
finally conquered them all. and, ns the
Tnat fe low goi JlcKeii. ne exumimeo,
by the neck, and Sara was to fight
him for one hour with naked fists.
Sain again went to training, with Jim
Peyton for his trainer, and long be
fore the day of the fight Peyton re
ported that his pupil was in splendid
c: n:lition, and would as 6oon light as
go a fishing.
The day came, and with it a great
crowd. The bets were three to one on
Sam, and many believed that he
would really whip the bear. Poor
Bruin a great shaggy-coated fellow
was tied to a stake by a chain
twelve feet long, and was as good
tempered as he could be, standing on
his hind legs, and etampering about
with delight at the sight of so many
people. Perhaps there was as little
of the real beast in Bruin as there whs
in many of the two-legged animals
who come to sec him fight. The keep
era of the bear began teasing and pok
ing him with sharp poles and irons,
and although he took it quite coolly
at first, he after a while growled fierce
Iv and tugged at his chain. Sam now
appeared with his keeper, Peyton.and j
was received with 10110 cneers Dy me
human animals who wished to see a
man and a beast fight.
Stepping into the ring, Sam prepar
ed for battle, s'r pping off ah Iub
clothing except his boots, pants and
drawers. His broad chest contrasted
strangely with the shaggy coat of the
beast, as the two combatants stood
glaring at each other. The intelli
gent animal seemed to understand the
situation in a moment, and raising
on his legs, walked toward Sam. who
tried to hit him between the eyes ho
ping to break his skull ; but failing in
this, he stepped to one side and, giv
ing the bear a powerful blow on the
ear, knocked him completely down.
Cheer after cheer greeted Sam as he
stepped from the ring, and the men
who had bet on the bear leally began
to fear they would lose their money.
Five minutes were allowed between
rounds, and baiters poked the beast
vigorously all the time, so that when
S m came up again, he was In a tow
ering rage.
The moment Sam crossed the ring,
the bear recognized him, and bounded
the full length of his chain. So great
was the rage of the beast that the peo
ple drew back in horror, ami even Sam
grew pale. Again the bear leaped for
ward, and taking his chain in his
paws attempted to break it. For a
time it resisted all his efforts, hut at
length snapped in twain, and the
afrighted people fled terror stricken
from the plain. The bear dashed up
on Sam, who bravely stood his ground
and actually succeeded in felling the
earth ; but. in doing so, lost his bal
ance, and before he could escape, the
hear caught him with one claw, and
hitting him on the face with the oth
er, broke the poor fellow's jaw. Still
Sam fought on. with his jaw hanging
down on his breast, and blood spirting
from a dozen woundi. It was a terri
ble conflict; but. of course the bear
won. knocking Sam down finally, and
tearing open his chest with it sharp
claws. By this time the people hail
got guns and returned to the field,
where they fired volley after volley
into poor Bruin, until he lay quite
still and dead. Sam was dead, too.
they took up his body an the carcass
of the bear, and buried then both.
And thus endpd Bruiser Sam and his
grizzly bear fig1 fc which was, perhaps
the only prize bear fight ever fought
in the world.
and the murderers were, left in their
cells, with no other companion than
the gloomy foreboding and anticipa
tion of the morrow. Old Schonch'in
met his family without much visible
emotion, but his children cried bitter
ly, and tho squaws yelled as if the
world was coming to an end. The
chief did not betray any outward
signs of agitation. He kissed his lit
tle Bon repeatedly, and when just be
fore retreat they were taken away, ho
laid down in his cell and rolled him
self like a ball in his blankets.
TIII2 tfOOT OP A HORSE.
The human hand has often been ta
ken to illustrate divine wisdom and
very well. But have yon ever exam
ined your horse's hoof ? It is hard
ly less curious in its way. Its parts
are somewhat more complicated, yet
their design i3 simple and obvious.
The hoof is not. as it appears to the
careless eye, a mere lump of insensi
ble bone, fastened to the leg by a
joint. It is madeupof a series of thin
layers, or leaves of horn, about five
hundred in number, and nicidy fitted
to each other, forming a lining to the
foot itself. Then there are as many
more layers belonging to what is call
ed the "coffin-bone." and fitted into
this. These are elastic. Take a quire
of paper and insert the leaves one by
one into those of another quire, and
you will get some idea of the arange
ment of the several layers. Now, the
weight of the horse rests on as many
elastic springs as there are layers In
his four feet about four thousand ;
and all this is contrived, not only for
the conveyance of his own body, but
for whatever burdens may be laid on
him.

Captain Jack's Speecli Bogus Chnrlcy
Coiifoinctf to tlie Murder of General
Ctinby.
The New York Herald of the 4th,
has a full page account of the execu
tion of the JSIodoc murderers, dated
Fort Klamath, October 3rd, but as
there is no telegraph wire within
over a hundred miles of the Fort, the
account is either fictitious or an un
paralleled feat in journalism.
The following is a portion of
CAPTAIN JACK'S SPEECH.
"I have heard the sentence, and
know what it i9, but I feel that I am
more innocent than Bogus Charley,
Hooker Jim, Steamboat Frank aud
Shack. Nasty Jim; that these men
planned and instigated the crime 01
which I am accused. I look into my
heart I see no crime there. Young
men started these murders. It'u hard
to rid them of their savage habits. J
was always in favor of peace, and Ho
gus Charley was the first to propose
the murder of General Can by and the
Peace Commissioners. These young
men were with him. I said no ; but
they had the power and carried me
with them. We came near a person
al diUiculty.
MY LIFE WAS IN DANGER.
When Bogus Charley proposed kill
ing General Can In, Boston Charley
was the one who first sanctioned it.
Bogus Charley said 'Jfyou fail to help
me I will do it myself.' I feel while
these four men are at liberty they
have triumphed -over me, and the
Koverntnent should feel more satis
fied if they were brought to trial, as
thev were as guity, if not more, than
I am. I say that Bogus Charley was
the only man who influenced me.
He was a traitor to both sides. He
told lies to the Modocs and lied to
General Can by. I should like to see
him brought here. Hooker Jim and
Bogus Charley were the men that ag
itated murder. I want now to teil
the truth want to see those men. I
know that Shack Nasty Jim ksiled
General Can by and shot Meacham,
and BOSTON CIIAltLEY KILLED DK.
Thomas. That is all f know about
the massacre."
BOSTON CHARLEY CONFESSES.
Boston Charley then expressed a
desire to talk and said, "You all
knew duriug the war, but it seemed
to me that
I HAD TWO HEARTS. ONE INDIAN AND
OTHER WHITE.
I am a boy ; yet you all know of
what I am guilty. Although a boy I
icel like a man. When I look side of
me I think of those other men as wo
men. Suhonchin, I am not afraid to
die. I think I am the only man in
the room. I fought in the front rank
with Shacknasty, Steamboat, Bogus
and Hooker Jim. I am wholly man,
not half woman. I killed General
Canby, assisted by Steamboat Frank
and Bogus. Bogus said, 'Do you be
lieve these Commissioners mean to
try to make peace with us?" I said,
"I believe so." He said, "I don't be
lieve so. they want to lead us into
some trap." I said, "All right. I go

and that His loving kindness is over

to ree a crane wading 111 quetof food,
the good man pointed out to his sou
the perfect adaptation of the crane to
