COidniKiK Commercial mellow hnzo of nn rtutumn evenIng - Ing wrnpt Its sllvory folds over ft grander landscape than has over glowed from nrllst'fl cnnvns , na , 'sotno years ago , I threaded my way down the jugged sides of a doop-cloft canyon In the solid walls of the mountains , which , Hko a vast nmphlthentcr , cordon the head waters of the Marias rlvor of Montana. Stretch ing forth on oltlior hand loomed the iinlghty peaks , their regal summits mantled in everlasting snows jxnd the 'outlines ' of tholr giant raasnoa growing 'dimmer ' until molted upon the horizon mistily into the nmbor sky , at tholr foot and upon the verge of the plain , altorn- atlns1 groups of ttmberqd buttps , naked \M8itUlo pinnacles , and rounded cones dyed crimson With decomposing chaly- boatosaltsand far below thogrcat plains rt pnnornina of golden grassed plateau , and winding silvery streams , here and ttioro laced with intermingled 'emerald , ruby and topaz tints of the changing follago of clustering cotton- woods. I had boon hunting mountain sheep , and In the cjiaso hnd wnnujorml far out f my way , so that as I reached the foot ,0f llio hljls the sun hnd sot behind the Biiowcaps. and I rcalicd that I was far from pilnin and must face the unpleasant proHpcct of a Bupporlcss , lonely night in the timber. Turning thp angle of a naked butte whoso rocky comb jutted to the hanks of a llttlo stream , which lioro danucd over the rocky bed , 1 was rejoiced to EOO a email hut beneath a bholtoring grove of trees , near which curled a column of blue smoke from a chbory ciuupllro. Doforo it , busily engaged in dressing a'door , was a tal ) , gniylmlrod man who , us his dog , a handsome deerhound , made known my presence with a short yelp and then a prolonged cry , straight ened himself to his full height , and ahading his oycs with his brown and hairy hand , gazed long and earnestly upon mo , until , standing directly before him , ho said to mo shortly : "Hollo ! stranger. " "Hollo , " I said in return , as I looked uneasily at the dog , who followed mo closely with his lip curled over his white tusks. "Lio down , Brucol" ho said , throwing a ploco of meat before the animal as ho obeyed. "Tho dog will not bite you , but it is seldom ho sees a human face besides my own , and. ho is a nervous brute. Where are you from ? " "I am with a party of hunters who are camped across the hills yonder , but have strayed too far away to return tonight. Can you give mo supper and a shakedown down ? " ' You can slmro my vonlson and bliiuketn , stranger , and. welcome. Just lay your gun in the tontl This is the fattest buck I ever killed in these moun tains. Hand mo that pan at your foot mid I'll give you a cut in a moment that will warm your heart. I'vo had my sun- per , and the colTeo la still smoking In the pot. " In a few minutes , with the proverbial buntor'p appetite , t had devoured two liberal slices of the juicy venison , a quantity of black "sour dough" broad , and emptied the pot of camp cafe noir. During the progress of my meal the deer wiis drcsaod with the deft skill that indicated a long practiced hand , and the curcasa hung high ur > on the limb of a convenient cotton wood , \yhon I had finished , my host cleat od away the sim ple "table" equipage , and drawing forth ft huge plug of tobacco from the pocket ; jf his buckskin frock olTorcd it to mo , together with a corncob pipe of which Jio produced the mato. A Wo quietly cotnmoncod our smoke the purple shiidoa of night camostealing1 down frum the mountains and the fire light soon brought forth with Rom- brand t distinctness the features of mv now fouud companion , nshosatthought- lully before it. His bronze fnco in its letting of curling gtay locks was a Strong one , reflecting an intense omo- tlonal nature , and there were furrowed Vines about hid handsomn mouth , and a Shadowy depth in the blue eyes , which told of the habit of concentrated thought which bolongu to the lifo of the recluse. "You must be a very keen sportsman , " I continued , "to live so lonely a Ufa in the desert with nothing but a dog for company. " TIe turned his deop-sot eyes slowly upon mo , then , pouring forth a volume of blue etiioko lazily upward , he said , drawing his pipe from his mouth : "Stranger , I don't ' got a chance to talk very often , and I'll toll you a chapter of my life. Perhaps you will then better understand why I Hue this way of living. "Did you over hoar of Captain Jack Blade , who was hung at Virginia City in 1804 ? You have ? I should have said you must bo a pretty fresh pilgrim if you hadn't. "Woll , sir , I came to Colorado in 1859 , whoa I was rjutto a kid , and ono of the Jlrst men I fell in with was Captain Jack Slado. Ho WHS at that tirao operating a division over the Overland stngo line for the Hen Halllday company , nnd I wont to work for him sa a stock tender on a ranch far out on the line in the Indian country. Ono night a stage came in with no ono on board , suvo the driver and messenger , but a ninglo.lady nassungor. The messenger was drunk and he atag- gorcd into the cabin to got ready for biippor. I noticed that he offered 'somo attentions to the lady that were not wall rpodlycfl. I had my horses to take care of , and so had no tltuo to see farthor.but \vhonj had hooked up the fresh team , and the driver had mounted the box and gathered up the lines , I wont into the waitingroom to call the time , when I saw thodrunkon messenger brutally pushing , , the lady Into if corner and trying to kiss her. She was quite young , and her f nco was palona a ghost's , while her long black hair hung down in scattered locks ever her shoulders , from the offecta of the Btrugglq. "I stopped up , and , grasping the ruos- Bongor by the arms , threw him Into n. corner. "Quick UB a Hash ho had drawn ono of the heavy Colt's pistols , which were ihon carried by all stage men , and , aiming - ing it full at tno. pulled the trigger. It failed to go off , ana with a curse ho cocked it once ugaln. "I had no tlmo to got out of the way , nnd I wits Iwgitmlnur the words of a really forgotten little urnyor my mother had taught mo when , from behind , I "hoard n clicking sound like an echo. In another instant a bharn report rung out , and the messenger fell dead at my feot. Turning around I saw Jack Slado just putting his revolver buck into his bolt , with a terrible smile on his face. Mak ing u buw ho walked up tn the lady and offered her bin arm. She nhrank from him , and ho did not Inslet , but , throwing open the door , ho snld to mo : "Show iho lady to the coach. " "J did BO , aud I shall never forgot the loo'c of horror which boomed frozen into her fi'co ' , Woll. lr , tlmo pissed onand I received in luylonoly altuatlon many llttlo IdndnosHou from the hands of Jack Slttda. Sometimes ho would bring mo u box of good cigars , abundle of illustrated papers , or u basket of fresh fruit from the settlements. "At lubt hd Inft the line and started a freighting out lit up north in the Milk river country , and the day before ha 1 _ started ho citmo and offered mo n job to < night-herd. j I took it , mid thu next morning his train came on anil 1 Soft fur .Montana. I worked with him a long tlmo and always got my pay promptly when It was duo , and novor'did man have u kinder matter. Ono morning when our train was laid up , Slado came by cninp with some of his men and I saw ho was drunk , Ha ordered mo to saddle my horse and go with him. "This I did , ; vnd In a few minutes there were twenty of us dashing at broak-neck upeed townrd Virginia City. When wo got thcro wo wont into several Bnloon ? and drank whisky until wo were nil pretty rocktoss. Sludo rode through the streets flourishing his gun nnd Shooting It into the air , while wo fol- Idwod shouting ourselves hoarse. "At length an olllcor en mo with a ptpor , and presented it to Slado. Ho glanced at it u iniiuiu , and then , leaving his horse with ono of our men , ho en tered the court room , thrust it under the nose of Judge Alex Davis , then toro it Into'shrcds , and nulling his alx-shootor prcautitcd it at the judgo's head and Said , 'I-hold you as a hoatimo for .my safety.1 . "Ho then came 6ut again , and wo 1 egan another mad gallop up and down the utreotH. I don't know exactly what made mo think so , us full of whisky in I was , but thorq seemed a promise f evil in the uir , the town seemed so hushed and silent , nnd I could ROO men riding out in all directions as though benton some important orrnml. "Slndo had brought "his horse into a saloon and was trying to make him leap upon u billiard titbit ) when tno doors were suddenly Hung open and ton or fif teen men , with cocked shotguns , walked in and , covering all of us , they seized Slado and led him into the street. It was the first tlmo in my lifo I had ever Boon the color leave hia faco. Wo fol lowed , and found a minor's Jury already assembled in the opqn nir , with a pha lanx of | non stretched away on every aide with muskets and pistols. "Slndo turned to mo and saiu in a broken voice : 'Jack , ride to the ranch and bring my wife. ' "I waited for nothing further , but forcing my way through the crowd I leaped upon my horse and was soon speeding away to the homo ranch on tno Mudiaon. I found his wile busy with her sowing , but my few hurried words brought her to her feat and in a moment she was all action. I roped her horse , a bwlft and beautiful broncho , which was grazing near , and without wailing for a saddle she leaped astride him and away wo How across country. When wo came nonr town I saw largo numbers of men leaving on foot and on horseback , and my heart told mo It was too late , but wo dju not slacken our speed , and in a few minutes wo were tearing through the main street. In the distance I saw a terrible object swaying in the wind , and drawing near it , there before us was the 'body of Jack Slado , hanging like a dog to the corral gato. The womun'a gmcf was hard to witness , and my own tears blinded mo. Well , sir , in Unco daya I bought a hunter'a outllt and wont into the mountains alone , and this has been my business over since. " As ho ceased , the last glowing omborb fell away into gray ashes , and we crept into the little tent to bed. True Htory of o Wolril Event , JV'fio I'oi ft Kccorifr. It was a sweltering night early In September in Florida. The usual night breeze hud not sot in , and all nature was panting for breath. I was silting at the table in the starboard stcerago of the ship T , writing the la t loiter to my awootncart far to the northward ; the candles , our only light , burned languidly for lack of air , and I was in light cos-- lumo. A hand was laid on my. shoulder and Iho Kind voice of a dear messmate requested mo to put aside my writing nntl come for u walk. "Tho moon is just getting up , and I wantto talk to you. " The speaker was ono of the finest specimens of a man that I huvo ever known tailbroad and fair haired well- beloved for his unfailing good nature and hia mnrry moods , our most popular man. I protested that I must finish my letter , and that it was too utterly hot to wallt , and I bogged to bo excused. But there was something BO earnest in the man's appeal , .repeated very gravely , that it fixed my attention. "Conjo , 1 want to tnlk to you about something very particularly ; 1 must talk to you and at onco. " So I , rather impatiently , put the clos ing words to ray letter , and hurriedly getting in to some clothes joined him on deck , and wo loft the ship. There was a long avenue lined with yucca trees loading to the village , and wo were soon walking under those in the moon light. " 1 suppose you-think it rather slrango that I should insist upon your coming out tonight , but I must talk to you. " "Woll. what IB this most important businebB ? * ' I inquired. "I want you to listen to mo with close attention , " said Bob. "I am not going to Imvd any argument with you as to the sense of woat I am going to tell you. I want you to promise mo to tuko charge of my olTocts and forward them to thisaddross , " handing mo n. paper. "Why , what do'you moan ? What has got Into your head ? Going to desert the ship ? " I asked , jokingly. "Nothing at all of that ; wo mujt bo serious. I want to toll you , my best friend , that I have had my warning , and shall bo dead in throe days from this tirao. "Nonsonsol" J exclaimed ; "what fool ery is this ? " " 'Tis not nonsense , and you must not try to rldioulo my belief. I repeat to you that in throe days from this hour T Blmtl Iw buried In the Gulf of Mexico. " 'Stuff1' ! ' I said. "What nnp possessed you to got into thla morbid statoi1" "Now listen the me m bo re of my family huvo always boon warned. I have hnd my warning. What is the use of trying to persuade me as to the folly tif it ? The main point , and the only ono in : Will you accent the re sponsibility that I impose on you'i1" " "Why , certainly , " said I , holding his arm closer , for wo always walked arm in arm , "but toll mo ; here , man , with ma chinery deranged' , without coal , without orders from thu department to go to sea , how could the uhlp bo rearty for aea in tliroo days , much loss bo In the Gulf then ? " "Novortholcss , " ho replied , "wo will bo there , and 1 shall bo burled three nights from this tlmo in the Gulf of Mexico. " There was no use of Jurthor protest ; I know him woll. and I know from his manner that further talk would bo of no avail ; BO I trlod another tack. "At any ruto , you'ro in good shape so far ; BO lot's B'o on to F 'a aud got a glass or two of grog , and smoke a cigar , and have no moro of this tonight. " And assuming - \ gjiioty I did. not fool , I hummud : "On such u nightV this , oh , love long , lost1 ! Ho tried to enter Into the spirit of my proposul , and wo went to the little club. I may almost call it , who -o the good woman , the wlfoof the pilot , allowed us to keep a private bottle or two and a box of clgun , ; and I talkoil jyayly to lior and to the othura there , and wo rallied "Hob" about eotiio of his little foibles. Ho took It all qulto pleasantly , and I ht\a hopoa ho'hud forgotten the talk of a , little While Itofo-e. Wo loft the house nb ml 0 u'floel ; , nnd Biuintorcd along toward the ship. He suddenly turned to mo and said : "It has uot mo SHIM. " "WhalV" 1 cried , for ho had thor oughly alarmed mo. "Tho fevor. " Well , I slopped , hold his baud * and felt his pulse , Ho wasaa hot and dry us a "lltno-burnor's wig , " and , taking him by the h.uul , I s.tld : "Jfow1 lot us walk fast and tyrcuk this fovcr right pff. " Wo did BO. I wns soon as ivot as if I hncl boon in a drenching shdwur. hut ho never turticd a hair. Hot and Hushed , I got him t * > the ship , turt.od him into hia bunk and s.umftioucd ( ho doctor. Before 11 o'clock ho WHS delirious , and his dls * tiiiso wan jollow favor. The next day came orders to hurry to sea. Everybody busy , a coaling ship putting onglnoa in order , laklnij provisions - , visions , etc. , and the following day wo left the yard , and so it .happened that , on the third day nftoi- our talk , ho died. And wo stood about the dcqk in the fall ing rain a Sad , sad group while thb captain i oad by the light of the deck lanterns the service of the dead , nnd his messmates raised the gang plank , and saw all that remained of noble old Bob committed to the deep. Ills prediction came true ; it w.is three days exactly when ho loft us , and I have never soon so many tearful men together as I did that rainy September night on the Gulf of Mexico.

To the Editor of TIIK UIK : Many people do not undoistand why wo refused to agrao to a maximum rate over thn proposed Nebraska Central bridge. 1'lcaso allow mo to explain turougu tUo col- uwns of THE Bun. To carry out any ontor- pilso Involving the expenditure ot so largo a .sura , It would bo necessary to borrow custom capitul'us no syndloUo could , bo found in Omaha able to nulld thu various improve ments without borrowing. It would not bo desirable , oven If possible , to withdraw so much local capital from circulation for ono enterprise , as \\oulcl bring about a string ency which would hmnpof business and tlo- prlvo the publju of many bcuetlls which would result from the expenditure of this largo sum wltbln our city. If th'o money Is secured train eastern or foreign capitalists , the money lying idle In our banks will bo in vested in smaller enterprises which the people - plo will have courage tu undertake , when ( and not , until ) confidence has been restored by the carrying out of some largo undertak ing such a * U proposed by the Nebraska Central. To be nblo to oorrow for an enterprise of this kind , tbo project must bo so foaslblo nnd its earning power so clearly demonstrated that no reasonable doubt will exist with re spect to the pjvinent of interest upon tbo bonded dobt. The purchasers of railway securities are not inclined to buy bonds upon any property subject to regulation , and look upon local regulation as specially objection able , because tboy dp not have faith that such regulation will always bo fairly and in telligently administered , the authorities to whom power to regulate Is delegated being nocossarlly interested and not usually well Informed upon such inaitoM. I do no ex press juiy opinion with regard to the justlco of this sendmont , but knowing of us ex- Is ten co could not safely Ignore It. In the fuco of the fact that I had boon advised by many prominent Jhuciurs , In cluding a number of Omaha bankers who are not interested In our project , that we could never sell any bonds unon the property if wo tint ) u Us darning power aud subjected it to regulation , I have agreed to so tie up ana subject it , so far as it relate. * to tbo charges to oo made to other railway companies for the use not only of tbo bridge , but of all of its property , including tbo top mllss of rail road in the state of Iowa. I was willing to do this Because it Is our intention to make it what might ba termoa a publio highway or toll road and make It profitable by Inducing a largo number of companies to use it , and because I was aware of the fact that we would uot bo able to secure contracts with the largo corporations 'Whom wo desire toN secure as tenants upon nny basis that would bo considered excessive or exorbitant even by interested local sroltrntors. . You will see that by consenting to these conditions. have completely eliminated * any possibility of this properly becoming a monopoly , and that it will DO impossible for us to cater into any arrangement with the present brliigo company which would prevent any railroad company desiring to ontcrOmuha from doing so or enable us to charge nn unreasonable toll or rental. Many people do uot seem to understand that the conditions referred to take effect immoaiatcly. The fact is that nothing Is postponed for five ye&rs except tbo pu\\or to regulate charges for transporting freight acro.-w ton bridge. I refused to agrco that this clause should become - como operative immediately because I sincerely believed that to do BO would de stroy all possibility of securing funds .for construction. Now lot us see what was de manded' Not that a rate should bo fixed which the Nebraska Central should bo entitled - titled to charge nnd receive , but that the rates should bo fixed by the arbitrators upon such a basis as might bo considered reason able , not exceeding' ' ! * certain niixlmum rate. You will see that the public was to bo pro tected nralnst Injustice by arbitrators , but how about tbo company ! it could not figure - uro on any basis whatever , as no ono couM predict what raws would bo fixed. By the present agreement wo have con tracted to go into coinpolltlon with the pres ent bridge company at onco. so .far as It re lates to the entrance of other roads into Omaha , and have ngreod to allow nil roads to use our propnrtv to compote with' the roods now using tbo UnionPaclllo bridge nod lines for business to bit carried to und from this point. Suppose wo bad gone further and agreed to the proposed regulation of rntoi. Wo would then huvo boon in the position of having acreud to reduce tbo rule * uot only ut Onmbo. but at all points on the Missouri river ( us tbo rates are tbo same at all points ) and wnon offering our securities for sale the bondouyer would have said at once : "You have contracted in advance to go Into a rate war with the Union Pnultlo , and it nlio nfTects ul ) bthor roads owning Missouri rlvor bridge : ) . You will have a bridge and 1U5 miles of road and the Union PaciUoitsbridge and extensive system of railroad and tin ) sympathy of the other roads. You have no clmnco tu win. Tboy can und will bankrupt you. " Does anyone believe that capital , which is always timid , would seek such nn Investment ! No. On the contrary any well informed person IUIOIYS that wo would bo looked upon as "chumps" for trying to sell bonds subject to such conditions. In tbo discussion buforo the county com missioners and city council , I contended that if the b rid co was made u public highway at reasonable rental competition would take care of rates. Others contended tbut coinpe- Uiion dooi not compete. I still bcliovo that I am right and In support of my opinion would cite the fact that rates across tbo Union I'acllio bridge are loss than half what they were before tbo building of ttio bridges at Plattsnioutb and Blair , and that the Merchants bridge at St. Louis largely reduced rates at that point , nolwltb- Htandlng the fact thut it was subject to no regulation. The live-year claiuo in the No. brailia Central proposition was ugrocil to as a compromise jo that If competition did not reduce tbo rates arbitrators should have power to fix rates ufu > r that time. If you will permit mo I will show in on * other totter that the bridge rates are of much loss Importance- than is generally auppoied. Yours respectfully , J , It.
