Wondpr grently do I , sitting hero In an abode in the primitive village of Yslotn on the banks of the Rio Gtando , if the modern pcoplo of the great city of St. Louis "re- inembor Joseph. " If they oven reflect that It was not ft not-work of railroads that made that city , but that it was tholr city that , aa a magnet , drew the iron rills o wards It. Ittvasntrny back of even the Mexican war that the grand trail of the Santa Fo traders extended southward to the Oily of Mexico lUolf. St. Louis was their starting point and the Planters' houao tholr rendezvous. On the vast plains they died , and In the mountain canyons , oven not now devoid of danger , that civilization might llvo , Does oomo ono say thatmon like St. Yraln ot al. , according to modern ideas , only opened up the land because they expected to find fortunes In it ? Granted. There are for tunes hidden in the Sierra Oarcay , in the Slorra Madre io-day , bat how many of our silken youth will care to venture in there ? With roverenoo for the bravo mon and the noble hearts who boldly buffeted the west , 1 interviewed Price Cooper yesterday. An old man , this Price Cooper ; born in Pennsylvania in 1813 and raised in the state of Illinois. Ho came to Mexico with the Santa Fo traders In 1833 , bolng then a little over 20 and has boon a frontiersman over slnco. Although over the Scripture limit of threescore years and ton and somewhat bent and feeble of body , the old man'a memory is bright and vivid , and whatever harm untold hard ships and Buffering bavo done bii body , they have loft his mental vigor unim paired. At the last election in Novem ber ho waa the choice of the people for the position of Inspector of hides and cattle for El Paso county , and it was to the duties of his office and tholr proper performance that your correspondent is indebted for this glance at the romantic past of frontier history. Mr. Cooper not being able to ride , as in the old days , wished mo to Introduce him to some of the railroad ofliciala at El Pao , that he might a trap go with them the beat moans of accomplishing his Inspections with the least trouble to all partlen , and having been of Bomp service to him ho invited mo to his primitive abode , and over a glass of the Rio Grande wine celebrated in the novels of the late Capt. Mayno Reid , gave mo same personal recollec tions. JL SANTA FE XltADEK. "I wasn't quite 21 , " ho commencad , "when I joined the traders. I joined In St. Louie , as wo nearly all did , although the real point of departure was Indepen dence , Mo. The company I joined was well known and one of the strongest in the Santa Fe trado. The firm name in St. Louis was Sullivan , Houck an' Glas gow , on' wo traded with both Chihuahua un' Sonora in Old Mexico. Wo never traded much with the City of Mexico , 'cause they all got tholr etnlf nearly by way of sea. On my first trip wo had for ty-live men all told in the party , an' ev erything went a1 ! well until we reached Guaymaj. Hero the party divided. Moat went down to the City of Mexico , and the rest , fifteen in number , started to seturn Inland to Santa Fe. 1 was with this crowd. Well , sir , wo had got about fiity miles north of Babispo , where ye recollect Crook was about two years ego , when wo found ourselves surrounded by Apaches. Thny werpeo strong then that they dedn't hunt their holes or look out aa much for adoad sure thing as tbey do now. They had a dead sure thing on us , though There wae from COO to 1,000 of them , an' wo were only fifteen. Wo took to a small , round knoll , with bowlders , behind which wo hid , an' atood them off for two days an' n'ghts. They got our pack train an' horses , an1 wo had no food nor water , EO wo had to surrender. Well , they then took us into the mountains Into the heart of the Sierra Madre an' though it was in the month of August they gave us nothing to eat or drink. EUHNBD ALIVE. "Ono of the bojs died , an' when the Apaches got to camp they buined the rest alive , They _ hung them by their feet to limbs of a Hyo-cak , leaving their heads hanging within three feet of the ground , an' then lit fires under them. If I live a thousand years I'll never forget their cties of agony.1' "How did you caape ? " inquired the Globo-Damocrat man. "Well , I have uo wonderful story to tail you , an' the truth Is I hardly know. I was but a kid , yo may say , an' ai 1 staid among the squaws mid papooses I guess I was overlooked. Aftar the bnrnln' there was a great war dance , un' during the row I managed to got away. For nine days an * a half ! wandered bare- nootod through the Sierra Madre , living by chewing the maguey root , an' at last , when out of ny head , I was brought into a little Mexican town near the divide of the Slorra. Luckily for mo I had struck jCwas Grandea rlvrr , an' , mad as 1 was I followed Its banks. That follow , Dr. Tanner , ye know , lived forty days without food , but ye may hot yor life ho couldn't iivo over forty hours in a Mexi can sun without water. I think the town the Mexicans found me brought mete to waa Janoa an * from It I went to Chi huahua. I bad no money an * no friends. The Indians took $700 I had when they got me. However , tno bankers who handled the traders' money , gave me all I wanted , an' I got back to St. Louis to find the whole of the outfit there before me. " "You didn't care to go out again in a hurryj" "I don't know about the hurry. Wo never did things in r. hurry in thoee days , but tlueo years after found me while working still for the same firm in the "lands of Navaj oca. " ONCE MOIIK IN TUB TOILS. "Flow d d that como aboutl" "Simply enough. I was out herding ho etosk , wo being at the camp near Montana , a Pueblo Indian village war where Albuquerque now stands. The Nava joes ran off the stock an' captured mo with it , They carried mo to Canyon Joae , close to where Foit Wingite now itanda. They had their camp there , an1 or two mouths I lived among thorn , an' ' hey treated me well. ' Our chief food wai burro meat , an1 Its 'way up when the burro Is young , One day the Cora- mancheB , 700 strong , with whom the NavajoeaVcre at war , were reported to be approaching to attack our c&tnp , an * I I learned from acme cf the women that I was to bo lacrlficed. Along , fUt stone , supported at each coiner by other itonca Hko the legs of a table , was got ready. Under It the tavagos , at C o'clock in the morning , made an immense fire with inos- quit and other atufl , which they kept pllln' on until it was nearly rod-not. I didn't speak much Mexican then , not to talk of Indian , but I learnt enough to make out that the red devils intended to bind mo hand an1 foot an * roast mo alive on the stone us soon as it waa hot enough. I also learnt that the Comanche camp was about two miles ftom oura , an1 that they had a nigger , who spoke Spanish and Nav jo , with them , who acted as a kind of interpreter. As wo wcro 1,000 strong , they were hesitating about commencing the fight. I think it waa about 3 or 4 la the afternoon that the stone was con sidered hot enough. I was standln' with a group of equatra an * paporsol when two warriors approached to bind me. A DAIUKO ESCAPE. ' ' 1'vo of ton wondered they didn't try to bind mo afore , but I guess they thought I didn't know what it all mo int. When 1 saw them comln' I knowod that if I didn't want to ace hides before mo time I'd bavo to make a break. Any death was better than boln' fried alive. There waa a squaw standin' near with a pipooso in her arms , an * as the bucks approached to bind mo , I suddenly snatched the child from her arms and ilung it on the red- hot stove. With a yell that's rlnijin1 in my cars yet , the whole outfit rushed to the stove to rescue it , an' , in the con fusion , I ran aa only mon run fcr life , in the direction of the Connnc'ho camp. So great was the sur- prijo among the Navajoes , that I had three qaartcra of a mile start before I was followed , an * I got s\fo : into the Comanche camp before they got within bowshot of.mo. I've been pretty near death many a time , but never so near ES that time , " and the old trader gvo a liorcoptiblo shudder at the recollec tion. tion."I "I staid with the Comanchca , " ho re sumed after a pause , "but three months. They never offered to harm mo , but I was afraid that any day they might change tholr minds , as I was kept a close prisoner. In the fall of the year the Comacbcs wont into camp it Bent's fort , an * a Mexican tradin * company visited the camp to trade with them. I man- a od to got acquainted with thorn an' Don Jose Maria Garcia , their captain , agreed to try an' get mo from the In dians. Ho had Bomo trouble about it , but at length I was ransomed for two old cap and ball muskets , oomo beads an * a pleco of cloth. From Bonton's fort I wont with the Mexican outfit to Santa Fo , where I had friends , who paid the Mexicans back what I had cost thorn. " "Did you go out on any moro trips ? " "Yes , a number of thorn , but never had any moro Indian troubles to sneak of. " mOFITADLE TRADING. "It was a money making business , that of a Santa Fo trader ? " queried your cor respondent. "I should say so. The bosses made up hi the hundreds of thousands , an' ib waa a poor trip that didn't pay from $1,000 to $2,000 a man. It was a harJ , rough life , though , but it had Its charms. The young men of to-day will never know what it was except by readln' or llslnnin' to some old moesback like myself. I wouldn't have mlesed thofo days to bo forty years younger. I don't moan beln' captured by Indians , of course , but the old , wild life of the plains. Have another glass of wine ? " Declining the proffered glass , aa the Rio Grande wine Is as strong and heavy as It la seductive , your correspondent took leave of old Price Cooper , ono of the few remaining links that binds the luxuriant and sybarite treat of to-day with the wild , rough and ragged west of half a century ago. C. A. M. OH Inspection in low * . Sioux City Journal. B. W. Blanchard , state oil inspector , in an interview eays that the recent de cision of the attorney-general requiring all packages of oil to bo branded with the precleo result of the teat , will have little practical effect as to consumers. It will , ho says , enable jobbers to know the exact grade of the oil they purchase from refinars , "and provcnt the sale of a low grade of oil at a price asked for a high grade. " The two statements do not jibe. If when the inspector simply certified that the oil was not below - low the required grade of 100 degrees , inferior oil could bo cold to the jobber as high grade oil , nothing is clearer than that the tame Imposition was Inflicted on the consumer ; and even if thojobborpur- chaacd oil at its actual tcet , there was nothing to prevent his branding the pack- oga with a higher degree and celling to the retailer at a higher figure , and so de frauding the consumer. Likewisethere was notning to prevent the retailer from doing the same thing. Inspector Blanch ard denies the report that the Standard Oil company will lose § 500,000 annually in Iowa by reason of the attorney-gen eral's decision , but does not deny that iti loss will bo considerable. It is hn opin ion that the law for the inspection of il lumination oils is giving entire satisfac tion and is generally obeyed. I' , how ever , has a few defects which ho says the next legislature can easily remedy. SKIN DISEASES OUIIED. By Dr. Fraztor'a Hafrio Ointment.

Mr. Oharlos H , Recd , who atalatod Mr. Schofiold in the defense of Gultcan , irtitoa a Washington correspondent to the Now Yoik Sun. has for the third time asked congrcsi for an appropriation of § 3,000 In paj mcnt for such offices without success. If ho should over snc- cecd In getting any pay moat , ho would probably bo aa much surprised BO anjone. Almost everybody who had anything to do with the trial , on either tide , has Been moro or leas 111-fortuno over slnco , Some of the fatalities and distresses that hero visited many of those who wore con nected with the trial or brought In con tact in any way with the aisaestn , pre sent remarkable coincidences when his predictions , spiteful and wanno-llko eja culations , and curses are called to mind. It is not the least striking of tht so coin cidences that the republican party was defeated last fall. In ouo of Gultcau's moments of real or assumed pas sion , not long before his execution ho hold his bible hi h'in air mid , nitn. his c-yo3 rolling and tooth gnashing , said that the party was doomed , and that the last republican proaldont wai serving. At the snino time ho pronounced eomo ramb ling maledictions against President Ar thur , in which ho asserted that his party would repudiate him ami nominate Blaine , and then bo sttcpt out of oxltt- once. once.At another time , when ho waa almost foaming with piaslon , ho shouted : "My inspired act prevented an outbreak of war , and when you have murdered mo you will find out. " It haa been regarded by Bomo people here M a coincidence worth noticing , because BO striking , that but.for President Arthur's peremptory change of Mr. Bla'no's ' policy which the secretary of state insisted was Garfield's policy there was moro than an even chance that wo elionld have bad a war with Chili. Many thought so , at Itait , among the president himself. Another curious coincidence many find between Gultoau's prediction that his act would put a fctop to factional fighting in the republican party and the actual ces sation of the hot conflict that waa waged when ho fired his piatol. The list of fatalities to those who wore associated with the prosecution or do- fensa of him la strikingly largo. The dis trict attorney , whom Gnltoau'a vocabul ary was exhausted to cureo , has been grievously afllicted. The sudden death of his wlfo , his practical suspension during the star route trials , and the loss of the office are the chief misfortunes , though by no moans the only ones that have befallen htm since the trial. Two of the officers who had Guitoau in charge have died , ono having been murdered. Of the jury that convicted him , ono has died , ouo has been in the Ineano asylum , two have failed in bubinosp , and some of the rest have seen- nothing bub trouble since the verdict waa rendered. The judge who sentenced Guitoau was the owner of a hotel building that , without warning , collapsed one night last sum mer , killing several people and causing a heavy pecuniary leas. Ono of the physicians who testified that Gnitcau was sane traa afterwards murderously attacked by an insane patient ; another bad serious legal trouble , while tho' noted alienist who Insisted that the assassin was not responsible for his act died suddenly in the prlmo of life , and with an enviable and increasing reputation as a specialist. The domestic troubles of Mr. Scovillo , the brother-in-law who defended Guiteau , developed , at last into a public scandal , followed by a divorco. Dr. Woodward's death was hastened , it is believed , by the nervous strain caused by his attendance on the dying president , whllo Dr. , Bliss , who Buffered very greatly in health by reason of his sleepless ciro of Gar field , found after the president's death that hia practice was scattered , and had to meet other embarrassments. Marshal Henry , who had Guitoau in charge , was removed from o flic 3 not long after in same dis grace , while Garfiold's steward , Crump , laid the foundation for organic disease by his faithful nursing of the protidont , and other misfortunes wcra entailed , eo that ho had at last to eke out a living by keep ing a cheap restaurant in a bnioment. In view of such a list as this , the super stitions find a good deal of food for com ment. Among the more ignorant of the negroes hero Guiteau has long boon ro gar Jed as ths evil ono.

The Cat , Past and Present : While Mahomet was concocting his system his cat curled up on his sleeve. While the cat purred , Mahomet reflected ; for the purring of a cat makes an excellent boss to meditation. Perhaps the prophet dreamed of hla paradise. Ho dreamed for a long time and the cat fell atlccp.

Journal , Hunting for shirt-makora and other nocdlo-womon is disappointing work , for o'ton ' when it ia found where they ara said to llvo U is learned that they have been turned oat of doors for not being able to pay their rent , and have gene no ono knows whoro. Some go to the bottom of the Harlem riror Hko the sowing filrl who made twenty cents a day working on cloaks and drowned herself last Monday , Some go to the bowoty. Neatly all ultimately go to the ahmhouBc , and the patter's Held , and thus those who now velvets on the cloaks of the rich h&vo a pauper's crust and an unknown grave. A tcportor yesterday made his way Into a noisome rear cautt in south Fifth ave nue and then Into a miserable tenement house where , in ono of the rear rooms , an old lady worked at plain sowing. She Bald that aho had made largo aprons for nurses for 5 cents apiece. Working from dawn ti'l ' dark she made two aprons , earning 10 cento by her day's work. She furnished the thread. She had made fine ladles' wrappers that bad BO many pleats and oo much trimming that she was able to make only ono a day. A atoro gave her the \vork and paid her $2 a dozen or IGj cents a wrapper. She thus nominally made IG'i cants a day , out of which she had to pay for the thread she used in her pauperized work. When asked how oho earned her living she said that she didn't earn it. Her husband , a feeble old man , managed to pot a day's work once in a while , and be tween them both they succeeded in earn ing barely enough to tubjlst on. What she made by sowing helped a little it at least bought the salt. In ono of the uptown tenement houses on the East Sldo Hvoa a woman who sows for the rich. She is a widow , and supports by her needle a little brcod of four children. She mentioned to the re porter the names of tovcral well-known families and capitalists of enormous wealth living In Fifth and Madiaou avenues - nuos who paid her § 1 a day for sowing at their houses. She eald that she had worked ( ill midnight for six years to earn money enough t * support her cluldren , coming homo after doing her day's work for her rich customers to cut and make droBses for other customers at her houee. She earned from § 8 to § 0 a week and paid $12 a month rent. After paying her rent the five of her family had to live a month on about $4 50 piece. When asked why she did not charge her rich customers moro than n dollar a day tor her work the said that she had raised her price to § 1.25 , and ao many of them dropped her thai she had to go back to a dollar c day.In In a roar tenement house in Weal Thirty-fifth street , in two rooms as bright a.i a pin , live an old lady and her daughter , a sowing-girl. The girl Is highly skilled with her needle and does sawing on the finest cents , such aa are worn by fash ionable young mon and cott a good deal of money. With all her exceptional skill she makes but $5 a week , and somo- thnea when she works on "slop tailor ing coats" eho makes but $3 a week. Flvo or six years ago she made § 8 a week , but her waocs ; have been cut down from time to time till they are now 87-i per cent lower than when they wore but the nicigro sum of § 8 a week.
