YSLETA , Tox. , February 28. 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

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.

Superstitious Pcoplo Talking of the
MlslortuncH that Followed
Them.
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.

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. Out of
her Bcantv earnings she supports her aged
mother.

"What are you buying now ? " asked
Ned Stevenson of Andrew Powell
on mooting the litter in Boll's jewelry
store.
"I am looking for some present
to give my wife on her birthday. I
toll you , making proteins costs a heap of
money. "

five years , and I am not out a cent thus
