T RTN TST ALITTLECZARIN HISWAY An Edueated Russian, After a Lileof Adventures, is Ruler of Berry-Pickers. HE SHUNS THE CITIES AND CIRCLES WHICH: HE WOULD ADORBN TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD IN INDIANA'S WILD LAKE REGION. [lndianapolis Journal, July 20. | There was a party of lawyers in the oflice of the Denison Hotel the other evening, and the members of it were giving experiences of people they had met and things they had seen at home and abroad. “Do 3‘611 know,” remarked ouwe of the party, “that we have in Indiana a crop that as it ripens brings together as pieturesque and tongh a concomse of people as may be found anywhere? ‘There is in these people elements of romantie interest, and I won- - der that some of our Indiana avriters . have not made use of the material so near at hand. Several vears ago 1 - asked a friend conneeted with a railroad that goes throngh some of the wildest parts of northern Indiana, if he knew of any place where I could go fishing that was not overrun by pleasure-seckers from the cities. He told me of a piece of country lying in the corners of Pulaski, Starke and St. Joseph counties, in which is a sheet of water called Koontz Lake. ‘There are,’ said-he, ‘no accommodations, though perhaps yon may find a log cabin, but there is plenty of sport, and if you go now,—it was then in July—‘you will see some people stranger than you ever saw before in Tudiana.”” : “You did not let an opportunity like that go ?” suggested a listener. | *“I'o Koontz’s lake I went, and found ~ the cabin and a family living in it,” was"‘ the reply. “The head of the family, as I first set eyes upon him, impressed o | as the finest specimen of physical man- } Lhood I had ever seen. Ie was six feet three inches high, splendidly formed and, though ronghly dressed had an air about him that betokened the man of educktion, I found that he used the choicest English, and also that he had the rare gift of being o good talker. As a story-teller he was ivimitable, especially in dinlect, whether native or foeeign. He was reticent as to himself and his own achievements, but after a time a mutuality of tastes brought us nearer together. I then discovered that he spoke French and Spanish as well as English, was well versed in Shakspeare, read Latin and Greek, while he was familiar with the writings of Dickens and other novelists. He excited my enriosity greatly. Who was this diamond of the desert? He rigged me up a place to sleep, and told me I could get something to eat every day at Lis cabin. In a day or two he appeared to take more interest in me, and as 1 could not get a boatman, wenut out with me upon the lake.” “Did you learn the mar’s history ?” ““I scon discovered that he was a Russian, born in the northern part of that empire in Europe. In Lis youth he had been sent to a military school, and | when about twenty years cld had taken ‘ - part in the Crimean war, receiving two ! promotions for gallantry. His temper | was rough and ungovernable, and one ! day, in a sudden quarrel at some social gathering, lie struck a superior ofiicer. 1 Not daring to stund trial by cuurbmur-i tizl, he fled across the irontier and ‘ made his way to London. From there Le went to South America, and after a few years, about the breaking out of | the war for the Union, he arrived in New York. There he enlisted and was soon made a licutenant. He did good service on the Peninsula, but was struck with a shell in the thigh and was sent to the hospital at Washington. The wound Was over seven inches long and has never thoroughly healed. This, of course, ended his service in the army. He drifted to Chicago, where he soon became known as a crack shot, both with the rifle and shot-gun, and bis early training in Russia made him not only a hunter but an expert fisherman. He began to be in demand to accompany hunting parties through Michigan and Wisconsin, and afterwards further north and northwest. He frequently went as a guide with foreigners who came west to hunt and he told 2 number of diverting stories of his experiences with young Englishmen. “On one occasion, continued the narrator, “‘he had gone into the woods of northern Michigan with an Englishman who had a great fancy for huunting, but, as my Russian friend soon discovered, had a great horror of Indiacs. As the woods deepened, the guide lightened the solitary march with the wildest and most fantastic tales of bloody massacre, and when they made their camp for the night the Englishman was literally an inseperable companion. The next day the guide, being left to himself for a feaw moments, wandered away from camp aud actually came upon a lone Indian trapping. He invited the red man

" to come over to his camp, an:l that 3 I night while seated with his Euglish ' ‘ friend in front of the camp fire regul- | ; ing Lim with wild, ved tales of the bor- l der he heard a twig snup. As the inglishinan, startled by the sound, raised l s eyes the red man loomed up before lim. As revealed by the fierce fivelight ; I he had all the terrible savagery of his race as depicted in the regulation Indian novel. With a shriek of terror the Englishman made for the cabin and crawled under the sleeping bunk, while the poor Indian, frightened by the unearthly yell, bounded awuy into the for- | est, and was not again seen by the guide | for nearly a week. 1 “My friend,” said the story-teller, re- | turning to his hero, “bears the name of | George Warner, which is easier to pro- | nonnce than the original Russian, and |is known far and wide as the autocrat of the wild conntry in which he lives. lie is & Republicau, and the leader of | his party in that neighborhood. His | wife is a Swede, a lady of edueation, | and was at one time in the fawily of the | Swedish minister in London, Warner Liad, as he acknowledged, become too couvivial in his habits in Chicago, his hunting companious being no advantage | to him in that respect. liis wife, sceing that worse would follow, was anxious to get him away from Chicago, and by chance they found this place on Koontz’s lake, where Warner is a small farmer, and pays special attention te the hackleberry erop. 1t was this huckleberry crep and the people who came about this time each year to gather it that I wish to speak of. 1t is thought that 5,000 people come to the swamps to gathor this crop and they are a very wild and motley throng. The women are quite as bad as the men, and gambling runs riot. It is over this assemblage that Warner feels called upon to rule and keep their license within | bounds. Woe unto the man who disputes his authority, for, in spite of his wounded leg he is a Samson in strength, It is, of course, no easy thing to muaintain supremacy in & community of this kind, and every now and then Warner is called upon to fight for Lis own. One of the most formidable of these opponents. was & woman. She had, when younger, traveled in various circuses and side-shows as “I'he woman of the iron jaw,” and had, from first to last, been married to and divoreed from nine or ten husbands. As Warner did not vield to Ler overtures of love, she resolved that he should feel the weiglt of her arms. Sle had, it was said, whipped every fighting man sbout the lake and boasted that Warner would be added to the list of the vanguisked. Oue day they came together, a crowd of huckleberry gatherers, hemming my friend in so that he counld not escape, aud the Amazon bearing down upon Lim with her arms in the most approved position for either attack or defense, He was too gallant to strike the lady at first, but a ringing blow on the side of the head awakened him to the exigencies of the ocvasion, and he gave hier a thump that would have felled an ox, but had no perceptible effect upon tne Amazon, who showered the blows upon his head. Something had to be done. Exerting his Dest skiil he waited for an opening, and knocked her a dozen feet ‘or wore into the brush. She was up { again wicked as a willcat, and he had to score three more knockdowns before she gave up. She then graciously extended her hand, and as she rose ac‘l knowledged her defeat, requested all l good citizens to give in their adherance to Warner, who had proved hiwmself to be ‘a better man’ thau herself.” Having thus disposed of the opposition, Warner has since been undisturbed in his beneficent rale of the natives aud the huckleberry people of Koontz's lake. Every summer I pay him a visit. I find him reading some latin classic or immersed in some of the best of the current literature of the day, prepared to enter into an argument on some point of philosophy, science or polities, or ready to take & rod and minnow-bucket and accompany me to a place in the lake where the bass never fail to bite.” e REe Three-fourths of your ailments arise from Liver troubles which Simmons Liver Regulater cures.
