In this story of the Missouri river \vo
shall hour of Mate Nash , wrltos Ilomor
Bnssford in tlio Datrult Free Pruss.
This man still lives and is still sv mate ,
at the ujjo of 72. Ho is running on the
rlvor from St. Louis to St. Joseph , in
charge of the unruly roustabouts on the
main dock of the big atoiinbjat State of
Knnsas. Mite Nash Is ono of the old
school of stoatnbodtmen. Ho w.is a pilot
on the Missouri rlvor in 183) , when 300
Hoot boats were on the stroain batwSon
St. Louisj and Fort Bunion. Yo rs before -
fore that , in the year 183'J. ho began his
river lifo as a stoorin'in or cub-pilot , on
the Ohio , but soon txftorwwds ho came
wnst and took up his homo In St. Louis.
Every spring until that of 1853 found
him bound for the northwest by boit.
Hut the tlmo came at last when there
were no tnoro boats in the "Big Muddy"
for him to take , and for two or three
years ho was Idle and disconsolate.
There has boon a revival of the business
sinctS 1890 , and now 11 vo boats , throe of
them line , largo ones , run up the Mis
souri. . And ao wo all BOO Mite Nash
again.
lllvor life , with its winters of idleness ,
Booms conducive to long life. Many of
the veterans of 1830 are nlivo toJtiy , as
strong nnd hearty as when they heaved
the load in the Kickapoo .shoals and
inado glad the heart of tno pilot by find
ing Mark Twain water. Mate Nash is
an example of this hardy race. I saw
him recently. Ho was drosaod oddly fern
n mate. Instead of a hickory shirt ,
slouch hat and conrao trousers , no
were a Prince Albort. suit of good ma
terial , an immaculate shirt , stana nig
collar and white noplljjo uocktio. His
board was mutton-chop in design , the
face showing out ruddy and rugged with
health. I did not see a gray hair on his
head.
"I " said. "In
nm fooling well , ho .
fact , I am always in good health , but I
fool better than usual now that I nm on
the river once more. Am I active ? " ho
wont on , but without answering in
words ho throw ona foot up and deftly
kicked the hat rim of a sleepy rousta
bout who w.is standing neatby. . Mnto
Niish weighs , 185 pound * and is just six
foot in height. In manner ho is Olios-
toriioldhui.
An iiiciiiintor With Iiiillnns.
The old mate has had some thrilling
experiences in his time. lie does not
talk of thorn freely , but when ho tolls u
story ho always produces evidence of its
truthfulness. Onn of his narrow es
capes from Indians is a good story by
itself. It happened in 18-37 , just below
the mouth of ttio Yellowstone river , on
the upper Missouri. His boat , the
Evening Star , in command of Captafn
Archie Bryannowof the lower Missouri
rlvor tvado from Rochoport to the
mouth , was making a trip to Fort Bon-
ton. The boat had tied up for the night
owinfr to the condition of the rivor.
Mate Nash took n. gun and wont nshoro
to look for an antolopo. For iv decoy ho
used a white rag on the end of a stick ,
lie stooped in the underbrush about 100
yards from the boat and watched his
trainu approach , impelled by curiosity.
The nntolopo wns almost within range ,
when it suddenly wheeled about and
ecnmporod. Mate Nash kno\v that it had
boon frightened either by ono of the
boat's party or Indians. In a momunt
ho saw IIftoon rods ride out in full view
on their ponies. Ila motioned with his
hands for them to kooo back , but they
at once scattered to surround him. IIo
walked toward the boat , all tlio while
motioning the Indians to keep away.
When the mate biiw that they meant
to capture him ho resolved to make a
stand. Selecting a tree , ho dodged be
hind it and began llring. In an instant
two ponies were dead. Ho broke
tfirotigh the gap thus made anil before
the Indians could recover their senses
he had run a few yards and secured a ,
place behind another tree. Tlio arrows
How about him thickly. Ho shot again.
This time an Indian died. Again
and again ho aimed , each time
bringing down a man or a
pony and In the excitement escaping to
another troo. Fifteen minutes from the
moment ho saw the enemy ho was close
to the bjnt , when half a dozen of the
crow appeared and drove the remaining
rods into the woods. When the ground
was looked over , Hvo dead Indians and
soviiii ponies slain were found. Mate
Nash 1ms those flvo scalps to this day
five bits of dry , tanned skin , to which
are long hair and many feathers of .tho
warrior Sioux.
Another llrmliVltli tlio IteiU ,
Another Indian story that I hoard
from the lips of Mate Nash is equally
Interesting. This tlmo ho was mate on
the handsome steamer Silver Luke No.
1. In Juno , 1S ( > 5 , the Lake made a trnd-
in < r trip to the head waters of the Mis
souri. Tlio boat tied up ono night au.ir
the mouth of Cannon Ball rlvor , eigh
teen miles below Fort Hico. The llrcs
were banked and Htonm went down
rapidly. Junt after dark Mate Nash
told the captain that n xtrong w.itch
should l > o sot , for ho had noon moccasin
tracks in the sand along the shore. The
captain laughed tit the idea of danger ,
lie had scarcely spoken when an owl
hoot was hoard oil in the hills. Inn
moment a wolf bark sounded from a
point up tlio rivor. Again came the
owl hoot and twice nioro wns the wolf
bark heard. Half an hour later the
Indians bwnrmod out of the woods and
bou'iin shooting arrows into the cnbln of
the Silver Luke No.I. . The flremnn of
a steamboat novet1- worked harder in a
race than the Lako'd firemen
worked that night to raise stoiun.
It was noon that unless the
boat got Blurted up stream very soon
the Indians by force of numbers would
board her. Tlio line was out by a ven
turesome roiibtuboiit.iuid the boat lloatcd
down with the current while the rods
pursued on shore. At length enough
Btoiun pressure was indicated to ntnit
the vcfasol ahead , As it got well under
way. Mate Nash wheeled the boat's
mountain howitzer into position near
the capstan , and under n shower of ar
rows eoiit a shell among tlio hoslllos. As
the missile rolled along the ground , iv
score of Indians attempted to pick Jt up ,
when the ox plosion occurred. Several
shells were llred into the crowd on shore ,
onch oio | dealing out death at u ( earful
rate. That buttle cost the Indianu
twenty-live warriors and forty ponton ,
while sixty arrow marks and one man
wounded was all the damage that tlio
Silver Lake No. 4 suffered.
A 1'lBhl With n Hour ,
Mate Nivsli had n. tUBklo with a grizzly
boar once. It came near coating the
innto's Hfo , but by luck nd courage ho
lillotl the monster full of Ipnd nnd won
the light. General SuttJP'Was on board
the Evening Star with fligHi U command
und the well known Indian guide , Fool
Dog. The boat wiia a "few miles up In
the Yellowstone rlvor. ppnoral Sully'u
cominnnd hnd mndo great Inroads on
the steward's store and- squad from
the crow was sciUtotQiViitluoiiKh the
woods in search of gimgilicti ( , plonllful
all ever the west. Mate Nnsh was ono
of the hunters. IIo wont oil into the
foothills by himself. TWundorgrowth
was very heavy and .tall , making progress -
gross dilliculu "As Mate Nnsh pushed
nis way through tho'scrub trees lie
hoard a noise ahead. 1J ( )
"Don't shoot , " ho called , supposing
ono of the party had worked around in
front of him. Tnoro'was ' no rosponso.
As the Indians were friendly In that
neighborhood , Mate Nash know that
some largo game was in front of him ,
but ho never thought ot iv grizzly. IIo
pushed ahoiid a few foot further. Next
lie hoard a low growl , and In a moment
ho saw the eyes of a great boat- gloaming
wickedly through the growth. Tlio
mnii and the animal were scarcely ten
foot apart. The boar advanced slowly ,
but Male Nash stood perfectly still , al
most , paralyzed with four. On came the
boarforcing th6 stitT branches down with
his powerful claws and growling fiercely
at each stop. Mate Nash did not ra'so '
his weapon , but from his waist line be
gan to pump lead Into the boast from
his repeating rillo.
The first shot staggered Iho boar , but
It o.uno on. Mate Nash retreated , but
the boar followed rapHily. Sometimes
the animal was so close thai it pushed
tlio small trees against M-ito Nash , tear
ing his clothes and lai'oratlng his flesh.
After retreating half a do/.on rods , the
mate prepared his rlllo and turning
suddenly , llred again at the boar.
Again and again ho Iked ,
the great animal still lunging
forward. The grl//ly became weak before -
fore the clearing was reached and with
his knife Mate Nash delivered a death

ever do id , Mate Nash collapsed and fell
across the great carcass. Half an hour
later ho was found by one of the boat's
crow and restoratives brought him
around in a moment. When the grizzly

at 815 pounds. Mate Nash h-is n good

more highly than a certain boar skin
and half a peck ot vicious looking tooth
mid claws.

When Mate Nash first wont up the
Missouri river there wiis not a house
whore Kansas City now stands. Loavon-
worth and St Joseph were small towns
and Omaha was famous for having four
houses. On the present site of Kansas
City there was a landing1 for the town
of Wostport , live miles back from the
rivor. At Wostport many of the best
families of the west got thoiu
financial start. It was } lie point at
which all caravans a/id. / vagon trains
outfitted for the wost-t'ogo ever the
lamotis Santa , Vo trail. From Wostport
could boseon thofrosnxxon and fresher ,
buoyant men , starting for'the boundless
west in search of fdiho 'und fortune.
There also could bo jSoej'i the broken
wagons and wearied , imynals and men
who had just returned jwlth fearful

that made Missouri rlvoc atoainboatlng

The Lemon , the Orange , the
Vanilla , contains more or less
of a delicate flavoring sub
stance , and the separation of
this substance in a manner seas
as to retain all its freshness ,
sweetness and naturalness , re
quires the greatest experience

ING EXTRACTS are prepared by
a new process that gives to
them the natural flavoring
qualities , and are so concen

small quantity to impart to a
cake , pildding or cream , the
delicate flavor of the fresh
fruit. The leading chemists
endorse their purity. The
