of Sings Hurriedly Brected la the non
tenant's Etoner He Went to Jersey to
Deliver a lletiage to Sampson's TTtfe
Lieut Richmond Pearson Hobson returned to
this olty from Washington yes terdar.and spent a
large part ot tho day In the offloe of the Morritt
Chapman Wrecking Company at 40 Wall stroet
making arrangements for the work to be done
In raising the Cristobal Colon and the Infanta
Maria Teresa, and went to Boston last night
In the interim he found time to pay a visit
to Now Jersoy. and while there was the re
cipient ot a unique ovation. Ha did not stay
long In the State just long snoanh.to tako a
rldo In n looomotlvo oab, par a call to Admiral
Sampson's wife, listen to a salute ot steam
whistles In his honor, and pass under an arch
ot Btars and 8trlpoa on his way out of the Btate
upon his return to this city.
Although Lieut Hobson dldnt say so. It Is un
derstood that ho will see the representatives of
another wreoklng company In that olty and af
rango with thom to do a portion of the work on
tho sunken crulsors,
Llout Hobson la cortaln that the Colon can
be savod. Admiral Sampson, attor a super
ficial examination ot tho wreck, thought other
wise, but Hobson had divers oxnmlno tho hull
of tho cruiser, and attor getting their reports
reltoratod his bcllot that she could be raised
and added to our navy. He laid his plans bo
fore tho officials In Washington and the Gov
ernment has decided to go ahead, although the
expenditure will bo great whether tho work Is
successful or not
When soon at tho Morrltt-Chapman offloe yes
terday Llout Hobson said:
" A vessel ot 7,000 tons, lylnjr on her beam
ends and almost submorged. Is In the vory worst
possible position. Only a portion of tho Colon's
storn Is above water. Hor sea valves are open
and her sides are perforated by onr shells. The
boach where she lies is shelving. To raise tho
Colon Is an extremely big engineering feat but
I bellevo it con be done. Now appliances are
not needed, but hasto Is. If q hurrloano should
oomo up tho Colon would be knocked to pieces.
"Tho work of raising the Maria Teresa Is
simple, although she Is not Inasgood condition
as the Colon. Pontoons will be run alongside of
the Colon, submerged, ohatned to the cruiser's
hull, and then pumped out At the same time
we will endeavor with, air pumps to foroo tho
water out of her air ohambers and water-tight
oompartments. If many ot these oompartments
are found to be lntaot the combined foroo from
inside and outside ought to be sufficient to
raise her eevoral tset Tho rest ot the work
will be done with air bags, whloh will be placed
In the hold and then Inflated with compressed
air. It will take about 1.000 tons ofbuoyanoy.
In addition to that already sent to Santiago by
the Msrritt company, to do the work.
"Every time tho ship la raised a few feet she
will be towed Inshore as far as possible. Even
tually we hope to (ret her so far out ot the water
that the necessary repairs can bo made. We
do not think tho Colon's hull Is leaky, but that
she was sunk by the opening of tho soa valves.
Once we get her afloat sho can bo towed here,
placed In a dry dock, nnd put Into shape.
"The pontoons will be ready In about three
days, and It will take se voral days to tow them to
Cuba. If the wator Is smooth wo can go right
ahead with tho work after wo got there, but if
not we will have to waft forpontoons cannot be
worked in rough watorv'
"When asked whother he would personally su
perintend tho work ot raisins the cruisers
Lieut Hobson said ho thought noL Ho much
preferred active sorvlce, he said, apd would ap
ply for It it there was any to be had.
Yesterday forenoon Lieut Hobson went to
Qlen Ridge, N. J., to deliver a mossago to the
wife, of Admiral Sampson, who resides there.
Ho was recognized the moment ho took a seat
In the train at Hoboken. and Benjamin Locke,
who Is one of theoldost engineers In the em
ploy of the p . L. and W. Railroad, lijft his cab
and entered the car. Ho'fnslsted upon Hobson
!1dlns in the cab with him. Hobson accented
he invitation, and when he reached Olen
ildgo thanked Locko warmly for the courtesy
that had been shown him.
It came to the earn of Assistant Supsrln
tendentfrank Griffith that Hobson would re
turn to Hoboken on tho 4:85 train, so he pro
pared a reooptlon for the Merrlmac hero. When
tho train arrived near the city, by Mr. Griffith's
ordore all englnos east of the Bergen tunnel
let go with their whistles simultaneously. The
din was deafening: and It was continued for
several minutes. A orowd had gathered In the
station, and It was Only by fighting their way
that Hobson and Griffith succeeded In reaching
the ferry entrance. Over tho entrance Orifllth
had caused to be raised an arch of flags in
scribed: "Welcomo to Our Hero, Llent. llob
ooh." Chlof Clerk MoDermott ot Hoboken and six
ot the dry Coundlmen met Hobson on the
boat and accompanied him to New York. There
was loud cheering; on the part ot the orowd
when the boatpullod out.
" I'll be slad when people forget me." said
Hobson. "It's embarrassing to be cheered
and followed like this."
Object to Selsnre of OUnde Bodrtgnes,
The officials ot the French line are Indignant
over the seizure ot the Ollnde Bodrigues, one
ot their smaller steamers, whloh was taken by
an American cruiser nine miles off Ban Juan.
Porto Rico. Mr.Bocande, general manager ot
the line, said yesterday:
" The steamer was going from Haytl to Bt
Thomas and was not going to mako any stops.
She was not cleared for any port In Porto Rloo,
and It was an outrago to seize her. There Is a
prize crew on her now and she Is on her way to
Charleston, S. O. The passengers are practi
cally prisoners and the malls are delayed,
which Is a serious matter. We will certainly
make a protest dgalnst the seizure."

A Cow rancher In Montana Brings In a
Pair of Horns.
Kxo Haxdl Rixau, Yellowstone county.
Mon., July 13. Mlko Roahe, a cow puncher In
the employ ot the "Lazy J" outfit came In
from the Upper Mussolsholl yesterday, and
had a pair of buffalo horns takon from an ani
mal klllod loss than two weeks ago. Roolis Is
somewhat rotloont owing to tho faot that a
heavy penalty Is prescribed for tho killing ot
buffaloes In Montana. Ho says that the Crco
Indians killed tho bison. Thoso who know
Roche, however, hare suggested that he might
havo hit tho buffalo whllo shooting at the In
dians to sonro thom away and prevent them
from violating tho law. One thing Is certain : a
buffalo has been klllod, and Roche says there
are flvo more In tho hord.
Durtna the past two years many persons
have reported that thoy saw buffaloes on the
plain lying between tho Snowy Mountains and
tho Uppor Mussolsholl. Rocho Is the onlyono.
however, who has brought bock absolute proof
of tho existence of tho hord. Notwithstanding
tho strlngonoy of tho law, It Is quite possible
that a hunting party will bo organlzod to go
aftor tho bltr gamo. Lord Clifton and Mr. Rob
ert Lowther. ownors of tlio "N. F.',' rnnoh, have
returned from England. Thoy first camo to
this country after tho elks and buffaloos had
disappeared, and are qulto willing to spend sov
oral wocks In verifying some ot the stories
of tho exaltomont of buffalo hunting which
havo boon told thom by the old-timers ot tho
Mussolsholl. Lester MofTott ot tho "Keg
Handle," who is an oxporlcucod buffalo hunter,
says that ho would cheortutly pay any reasona
ble flno for tho pleasure of trying his hand
again at tho most exciting ot all sport It Is
qntto possible ho will pilot the Englishman In
tho wild and dosolnto country through which
the huntora must pass boforo thoy can reach
tho table land upon which tho bisons aro sup
posed to be ruminating. In speaking of tho
killing ofthoone buffalo. Rocho said :
"I had hoard of a bunch ot cows and un
brended calves bolonglne to our outfit and just
attor sotting Into tho foothills of tho Snowies
I found traces of thom. Staklngoutmycayuas
I cllmbod up a high peak where I could get a
bettor vlow of the surrounding country. I
stopped at tho timber line ot tho mountain to
cook dlnnor whore thoro was n llttlo grove and
a stream of running water. Off to the left ot
where I built my campflro was a steep docllvl
ty. at tho bottom of which sand dunes sloped
off Into a plain of tho finest buffalo grass I ever
saw. I was lying down waiting for the beans to
boll whon I heard a chorus of yells and the
thump ot hoofs on the ground. I grabbed my
rifle and ran to the end ot tho grove.
" About a mile away I saw what seomed to be
a little bunoh of cattle coming toward me on
the dead run. A quarter ot a mllo behind them
were eight Indians riding as fast as their
cayusos would carry them. I stepped bock and
hid behind a big rock, for my first thought was
that the band ot Creos were aftor some fresh
boot. It Is not an advisable thing for ono white
man to meet theso Indians whon thoy are en
gaged In such an occupation. As soon as I
hod located myself safely 1 looked over the
top of tho bouldor. nnd at first I thought I was
dreaming Six buffaloes wore making straight
for the llttlo bunch of timber In which
I was biding. I just had time to got n good
glimpse of them whon I saw tho Indians raise
their rllles. and as tho bo, flu loos wore In a direct
linn bctwewn the Indians and me. I ducked my
head back in a hurry. I hoard neonl bullots
pat tor against tho rocks near me nnd raws
twig fall from a pluo tree cloto at hand. Then
camo tho report of tho rifles nt intervals.
"I wanted to get nnothor sight of tho buffa
loes, hut did net like to poko my head out
whoro tho bullets were flying so thlek. Just at
this time, however, the animals reached the
grovo. and were not more than fifty yards away
from mo. Evory ono of them was blcgor than
nny four-year-old I ewx- saw on tho range.
Tholr tongueH were hanging out, and they
worn bellowlnc like yearling calves when they
ore branded. I was no excited that I jumped
from bnhlnd tho rock and began llrlng at the
hord. Tho Indians saw mo in a minute, and I
guess they took mo for some of tho deputy
gamo wardens, for thoy galloinid nwoy as rap
idly as tholr horses would carry thpm. Tho
magazine of my rlflo had boon full of cartridges,
and. as I had boon pumping away as fast as I
could. I supposed tho Indians thought thoro
wag a whole nost with me. Atony rate, thoy
dldnotsoom Inclined to meet any ono whllo
they were engaged In tho unlawful occupation
of hunting buffaloos, nnd I was glad enough to
sco them go. , .
"With my glass in hand I watched thom for
fully twenty minutes no thoy galloped across
the plain, nnd as soon as I was eonwnucd thoy
were gone for good I took up tho trnll of tho
buffaloes to see If they had killed or woundod
any ot them. Of coureo I knew thot I had not.
for It is against the law. you know, and I have
always been law-abiding. I guess I am about
the only man on the Musselshell who will not
kill whlto-tall dear In winter, so you can see I
would not havo killed the buffalo, and was only
firing to scare the Indians away bo they would
not violate the law. I wantod to And out how
over. If thoy had klllod any ot tho animals so I
could havo thom prosecuted If they had.
"After crashing through tho grovo tho buf
faloes had started down the mountain side, and
it wax not nt all difficult to follow them, al
though by this thno they were miles away I
could see no blood on the ground, but 1 knew
that the long-rango rifles which aro usod by
nearly all tho Creee made uch a small hole
that blood would not flow from It Mechani
cally I flllod up tho magazine of my Winchester
as I walked along, and aftor I had cone about
a quarter of a mile I saw a buffalo bull ly
ing In tho crock, no almost dammed up
tho little stream, and the wator of tho
swift current was dashing against the
rocks at his side. I knew he was severely
wounded or tho others would not have left him.
for ho was apparently their leader, nor would
he havo remained so closo to the plaoo whoro
tho BhotH wore fired If ho hod not norm badly
fiurt. no saw luo as soon as I saw him. The
engthof his entire body was oxposod. but ho
had turuod his head over his right shoulder
and was looking at mo defiantly, overy now
and then emitting a low moan which was as
Uorce as a lion's growl.
"It was apparent that ho was suffering In
tenso pain, but ho had not lost his courage.
When no saw mo ho made no motion to rise,
and as there wore high banks at either stdo ot
tho vnth his body barred ray .progress. His
condition was desperate, and ho knew It. From
the way ho looked at me I was convinced that
ho did not regard me as n frlond, and could not
be mndo to do no. Tho cold wntor was sooth
ing, nnd ho did not Intend to leavo It. Now,
whon I start to go any place I hate to havo my
purposo thwarted by any kind ot a brute. I
knew I had no right to kill him. but It was
Impossible to mako him understand that his
lite was protected by law. especially as he was
suffering from a gunshot wound Infliotod
whllo tho samo law wus supposed to bo In full
force and effect. There was no means of patch
ing up a truce, and ho showed no disposition to
surrender. If ho had been willing to lot mo go
on my way peaceably perhaps I would havo con
sidered the matter, for I knew that the tough
hide of a hull buffalo Is often Invuluerablo to
a rlflo bullet even at closo rango.
" As tho Indians had given him what seemed
to be a mortal wound, ho wo vor. In the ab
sence, of tho exact wording of tho statutes I
conceived It to be my duty to so construe tho
spirit of the law as to allow mo to put tho bison
out of his mlsory. There was plenty of tlmo
for reflection, and I looked him over carefully
to soo If I could And a weak snot in hts hldo.
He refused to turn his head so that I could get
a shot at his neck, and tvrrf tlmo 1 pointed my
gun at him ho bollowod hoarsely as If to say.
"That's just what lexpeotod.' I went foprard
until I got within fifty yards of htm and began
ilirowinc stones nt him to soo It I could not get

across my kneos.
"Not knowing whother he was badly wound

vory fast before I mad him nny angrier than
he was nt that time. Whllo 1, was sitting thoro

tlopper Puts Himself Cumlcnlly
Into a Revival ot " The Ilrggnr Student,"
A feminine nnd frisky stranger In Now York
Is a usual personngo la the extravngntizns that
Hugh Morton writes for tho Casino. Sho
roappenred last night In "Ynnkoe Boodlo
Dandy." This tlmo sho was first shown
as a stucco figure In a frieze nt
the Academy of Design, but was soon ani
mated through the ardor ot an art student,
and thereupon became desirous of seeing what
Hfo Is like In this American cltytwo conturlcs
after her oxlstcnco In Rome. The sights which
the faootlous Mr. Morton put before her oyos
were muoh loss scandalous than thoso which ho
had shown to hor predecessors and to Casino
audiences. Tlify Illustrated, In his customary
manner, dlstortivcly nnd oxoggcratlvely, yet
still with a romoto regard for tho truth, various
phases of human oxlstcnco hereabouts. Ills
work Is often rcprehonslblo. It Is almost
always clovor. In this Instance none of his
Ideas was Immodest In Itsolf orfntho manner
of Its presentation, excepting as to somo of tho
undress. Thoy were reallrod on tho stago
with muoh beauty of scenory and cos
tttmos, and with a particularly flno and par
tially new selection of beautiful young womon
to sing in tho choruses and danco In the ballets.
In that respect no exhibition In that house had
been more romorLablo. The schamo ot tho
play was qulto intangible there was barely tho
shadow of a plot and Incoherence was domi
nant But vory many ot tho soparate things
wore dlvortlnc In onownyor another, nnd tho
proportion ot failure was small to that ot posi
tive success.
It was In tho troatmont ot tho war in a spirit
of burlosquo that nnturally. Iho worst failure
was encountered. Exocrnbly bad taste was dis
played In Introducing a Rod Cross nurse as a gid
dy creature who received kisses nnd conduct
ed hcrsolf wantonly. Still worso, and amount
ing to a serious offence, was tho oomlo display
ot a squad ot outlandish soldiers, who carica
tured our oluntoore In an awkward
drill. This was dlsllkod by tho audlonce.
Somo began to hiss; then there was
somo faint applause, and tho mistake was
made ot repeating tho outrago. No doubt It will
be promptly eliminated. All the rest of tho
very considerable martial element was re
spectful, and most ot It was as effectual as
could havo been desired. A llcenso of mirth
was tdken with tho rough rldors. It Is true, and
they were represented as a band of fighters as
tough as thoy were rough, but It was done
so spiritedly and the song nnd chorus ware so
captivating that oven Col. Roosevelt himself
would havo takon It as a oompltment Thoro
wore at various junctures comely troops
of fomlnlno soldiers nnd sailors, alle
gorical ballets In costumes, formed of our
national colors, drills ot cadets, and ono
especially pictorial climax of patriotism. Bolt
may bo said that tho dangerous material was.
on tho whole, handled wltn tact, and that tho
portion which went wrong may be easily spared
from tho entertainment.
Tlio scenes were a class room In the Academy
of Design, nn elevated railway platform. Bat
tery Park. Printing flouso Square, a jnolleo
ptatlon nnd Pennsylvania avenuo In Wash
ington. Somo actors, already favorites at
tho Casino, figured In tho hodgo podge.
They Included Wnltor Jones. Jennctto Baecanl.
and Mario George, all of whom danced with
acrobatic vloiotce, besides playing various
rOlos. Richard Carlo and Leo Harrison were loss
happy than usual, but that was duo to the paucity
of matter In their parts, which will probably bo
elaborated. Tho intorcstlngtworecruitstotho
forces were Thomas 0. Scnbrooko and Edna
aliaee Hopper. Mr. Senbrooko had been as
signed to the Col. Rollers character of tho
imentor of an incubator. Ho scorned
nervous nt first. Lntor. In tho guiso
of an Irish Inborer, ho sang a comic
song with admirnblo humor, and became of
real aluo In other ways. Mrs. Iloppor was
very pretty In a succession of boy's costumes,
running from correct ones to thoso which
were fantastic. Bho was arch and piquant,
and she sans; so ns to mako every word
intelligible, but she did not do well when any
demand was madonpon her for good mimicry.
Nevertheless, sho was nn agreeable little fig
ure. After the pieco was over Manager Lederor
was called out with real (enthusiasm and the
stago was filled with flowers.

celebrated the occasion by special music and
tho revival of an oporetta In tlio amphitheatre.
Do Wolf Iloppor sang In "Tho Beggar Stu

majority by this tlmo. When Mr. Hop
per sang tho rolo of tho General in
this opera, lie was a member of tho old Mo
Coull Opera Company and ho had not joined the
army of tho stars. It was ono of tho
first parts of Importance that ho sang and
It was easy to see Inst night how easily
It might havo indlcatod his present prom
inence. It was interesting also ns an
evidence of tho fact that ho docs not always
have to bo measured for his operettas. Last
night hts humor was qulto as natural and
unforced as It only ho had boon thought of
whon tho work wa9 written. Yot Mr. Hop
per was laboring In tho field ot the "legiti
mate" when "Tho Beggar Student"
was a Casino success. No singer who has at
tempted the character here ever had a bettor
voice and nono was ever mure amusing. Mr.
Hopper's best aualltloa aro displayed to much
greater nrhantneo In a work llko tills
than In somo ot tho cxtnnaganzas pre
pared especially for him. It seemed
llko a novelty moroovor, compared to tho
antiquated "Wang" In which he was
heard lost weok. The gonoral perform
ance was worthy of such an occasion
as the twonty-flrst birthday of Manhat
tan lloaeh. Mark Smith was Brnnitlav and
be could desire no greater pral.sa than the ad
mission that he was utterly different from what
he usod to bo ns thn dandy Queen of Spain on

two di.ughtere were sung by Nelln Bergen
and Alice Judson, who represent very different
types of femliilno beauty and are almost ns dif
ferent vocally. Miss Bortron tins an unusually
good volco and sings woll. Mr. Iloppor should
not keop "The Beggor Ktudent" for n more
summer diversion. It could moot the winter
standard.
