" SCOPT'S LOIHII : , Ditiri'ixa SIMUNO , N. M. , April 10 , IRI. ! ) While sitting lioro tonight in u rude cabin in the heart of thu Stn : Andreas inouiitaiiis in Now Mcxiuo , my mind pleasantly ro- vui'ta to n recent vihit to Oregon and the liaby state of Washington , and t-bpecl- ally pleasing reooHuctlons pome to mo of a bojourn with I'olonol Will L. Vis- chor , who permits a nowhpapor at Pnirlmvun to Moat liis illustrious name at its masthead. As the glowing features of my old time companion illuminate the can van of iny mumory , I recall a season of rare enjoyment ho and I si > ent together In these mountains , writes Captain Jack Crawford in the isow York Clipper. . "Vifech. " nnd 1 had been traveling to- pother , { jiving what wo called tin enter tainment. I cannot now recall the title the people applied to it. His portion of it was known as "Sixty Minutes in the War. " Whether or no that was the length of his borvico during the rebel lion I could novoi- induce him to tell mo , oven in his most confiding moment * . Neither could I learn from him \\lioro he acquired the title of "colonel , " his invariable reply being that lie "won it in a rnlllo in Kentucky. ' ' During the entertainment 1 would occasionally edge in u recitation of ono of my own poems , to give a moral tone to the all ir nnd give the audience time to catchniU breath and mop the sweat from its rook ing forehead. Wo thought our "show " n taking one , and wo have occasionally heard one of our auditors confess to ono another that it was "tolerable good. " Wo hud no set time for the duration of our linguistic cyclone , but would con tinue to assassinate the ears of our audi ence until the proprietor nf the hall would drop the curtain , to prevent the unwell and b.iclv number vegetables from mussing up the stage furniture. When wo would succeed in cITocting our es cape by the baggage elevator we would flee to the "doppo , " as Vifcch called it in his virgin French , and leave town by the lirst freight train going our way. As wo carried no baggage wo wore never embarrassed by correspondence with the proprietors of hotels wo left behind us. On our last tour wo succeeded in evad ing justice as far southward as my homo at Fort Craig , Now Mexico , and , having concluded to allow the public a brief re spite until wo could invent now modes of torture , wo caino out to ono of my min ing camps at tnose springs. iiero Viseh. was as a boy let lopso from school. Ho roamed the hills and gullies in the wildest glee , his glad song reverberating in stir ring echoes amid the eternal rocks , much to the surprise of the Mexi can burros , who thought they had n monopoly of that business. Thoao who have hoard the colonel sing will readily recall his rich burro-tone voice. Some idea of his buoyancy of soul may be formed from the following extract irom a poem ho wrote \vhilo here , and which , after a most desperate struggle , I suc ceeded in wresting from him when ho attempted to read it to mo : ' My glad soul scorns to iizz utid squirt , Lilto ginger pop that's burst its fetters I My biuzum surges , till my shirt Js torn into 10,000 tatters ! Mv frontispiece , which ever glows With ( julto surprising phosphorescence ! As this glad soul Hood outwnru Hews , Is tickled with thu effervescence 1 "Oil , would I wcro little birdl To dwell amid these trees forever ! My Joyful twitters would bo hoard , Ten miles beyond yon rolling river I Or were I but yon calf I see , Sporting about in bovine madness I I'd flap tny tail in ghoulish glee , Aud over boiler bleats of gladness 1" My jolly comrade's gladness of soul , however , was > but of short duration. Wo cooked by turns. Ono morning Visch. would sloop while I got up nnd prepared breakfast ; the next I would get up and got brcakfant and allow him to sleep. Ono morning after I had started a lire and was disinfecting a war relic in the shape of n piecn of bacon , preparatory to frying it , my pr.rd awoke , yawned until liis ears seemed trembling on the brink of a bottomless pit , and said : "W-hatcha knockin' ' 'round this time o' night for , 'Jack' : " ' "Tills time o' night ! Why , man , the sun is an hour high. " Ho raited himself on ono elbow , scratched his breast in a thoughtful way and replied : "Oh , lot up ! You lie out here nearly as bad as you do on the stage. Its pitch dark yet ! ' ' I looked at him in astonishment , and in a moment divined the truth. In his rambles ho had como in contact with sninn nolsnn ivv. nnd his fnen wiis * .n swollen that both his eyes were com pletely hid from view. lie was tone blind. It may have been very wicked for mo to make sport of the poor boy's nflllclion , but I couldn't liolp it. I crowded the fun of a lifetime into the two days of his blindness. J will say nothing of placing a frying pan full of hot Hour gravy whore ho would flop into it in his Block ing feel , or of sitting the dbh water in the water bucket's accustomed place with u drinking cup beside it ; but I must tell ono story , at the risk of violent assassination when next I meet him. Ho was hitting in front of the cabin , rollooting upon his piht _ ; sins and won dering if lie would over reform ami lead n bettor life , when I noticed our pack animal , a small Mexican burro ( donkey ) standing in front of him in a dreamy at titude , ov.dontly about half asleep. I suddenly l/oromo nos.vjssed of a devil ! A wicked thought shot athwart my brain , and aalzing my rlilo , I haul hur riedly : "Grout heiivens.Vlsch. , thoro't ) n mon ster bear In the bushes on that raise just in front of us ! Don't move , and I will got him. " Quietly stealing awr.y from the pooi eighties * follow , f wont up to the hlopo a short distance and fired n shot into the air. air."Did "Did you kill lilm , JticUV" Vlhoh. cried out , in : i trembling voice. "No , " I replied , "but I've hurt him. Ho acts like ho wanted a row1' ! 'Hadn't 1 bettor try and llnd my way into the lieu % < i' ( " ' ho asked , "Is'o , don't move , " I replied , "or you will attract his attention toward you. " A moment later I yelled : "tJroat CVsiir , Visch. , lie's going right ntyouV" and at the same time I started toward him through the bushes , making all the noise I could without using my voice. Vo gml8 of fun what a revel you must hnvo then indulged In ! Viseh. raised to his fcot , and hi.4 snowy faro puled to ashy whiteness. Ho trembled in every limb , nnd stretching forth his hand to ward olT the coming brute , cried out. "Oh , my dear Jack , stop htm I Oh , what will 1 do ? li'wny from hero , you brute ! O'h , Lordy ! Our Father which art in Woosh ! Hi there , joti foolV Now 1 lay mo Oh , Helena , I don't know how to pray ! Jack , shoot him , quick , or > | 10 fl > ' Just then I gave the donkev n quick push right against the terror stricken fellow , and as ho gra.sped it desperately by the nose with both his hands , ho uttered u shriek that rang distinctness. I could hold in no longer , and screamed with laughter. With that quick perception for which : io is noted , ho grasped the situation in in instant , and determined to turn the joke on myself. Ho felt the donkov's 'ace carefully ever , and wnen ho lltmlly cached its enormous earn , took one in each hand , and said with a ( Hilot sinilo- "Oh , I recognise you now , Jack , My love , 1 thought sure you wore a bear1 ' Like a boomerang that sinful joku came back at melalor with fearful force.
