AN IOWA PIONEER..

0n« of His Stories—His Hospitality to Early Immigrants

"r'r

t„,

A^nr

Dea Moines (Iowa) Reglater." Judjru Hubbard's use, in a recent trial in court, of the story of the generous Iowa man oi' early days who thought "it a mighty mean man who wouldn't promise a friend a pup," revives the fact that such a man did live in Iowa, and that such ah incident did occu. Jucge Hubbard called the man Joe Bomebody. Uncle Tom Mitchell, who saw this country made, and who was the first white man in Folk County, and about the best man who has ever come into it at all, says the Judge got the name wrong, and that it was Mr. Elijah Hayden, commonly known as "Lije Hayden."

He was Supertenaent ot the stage company was as great and important an affair in early Iowa a$ all the railways put together are now. Hayden, who is still re membered by many of the present people of Iowa, and who is still living, we belieTC, was a good deal of a man—shrewd, kindly, and a wit, and a great lover of fine dogs. He weut on the general prin ciplc of making everybody as happy as possible. It was one of his inspection tours across the 8tate that he "promised fifty pups from the next litter," and, when asked at the end of his journey by a traveler who linil heard him promise them all, said "It was a mighty mean man who wouldn't promise a friend a pup." There were few of the early settlers in Iowa who did not know Ilayaen, and Uncle Tom Mitchell tell many interesting stories of him and his eccentric ways. He was in I)es Moinea a cood deal till the railways came in 1860-68 and drove out the stages, and then he went on West with the ban islied coaches, and doubtless is now threading over some one of the mountain States, promising every settler who inhabits it a pup.

No living man knows so much of actual Iowa, or knew so many of its early people, or has seen the whole State made so well and so much as Mr. Mitchell. To him every day in Iowa since 1838 is still a vivid memory, and nearly forty vears of it he has passed in central Iowa. Indeed, on the land near where Mitchellville is now, which he securcd from the Indians themselves long before this part of the State was opened for settlers, he was like a light-house iir the middle of the sea. It might be said that he, with iiis house, which was made a hotel for every traveler who came, kept the gate of Iowa and let the people of the Slate in. Located on the old Indian trail up the Des Moines Valley, which finally became the government road into Iowa and across it to the lands beyond, his house was tho only shelter to DO had, and for over twenty years it was the home of fcvery man who passed through.

Thousands and thousands of people still living in Iowa aud in the States beyond still warm at the thought of the kindness that they met with in the Indian land in this home of complete hospitality. If Mr. Mitchell had been a king, dispensing the hospitality of an empire with the lavish hand of lioundless wealth, he could not hare impressed himself more completely on the people who came into Iowa up the Des Moines Valley more fully than he did by his unaffected and generous and unselfish and generous and unselfish entertainment of all who came to his door. If he had been a money lover he would have lieen worth millions to-day. But he charged no one actual cost, and to thousands and thousands of poor immigrants ho cave shelter and food for nothing. If giving to the poor i9 indeed lending to the Lord, and such loans are be repaid in heaven, Uncle Tom will find no man in the next world richer than himself.

To be at his home now and hear the story of those early days, as told in the upreserve of private conversation, is to hear more of the original Iowa than will ever set into the books. Every officer of the United States Army crossing Iowa to the forts here and west, and in the Territories, is an old acquaintance and friend of Uncle Tom, and at one time or another shared his hospitalities. So with all the prominent and early men and officials of the State. He knew, too, all of the Indian chiefs of that day, and as he had to learn their language, he could talk with them in their own tongue. The keen insight of tho savage saw the nobility ot the man and his complete kindliness, and they treated him as their ancestors did William Penn, and were always cominc to him for advice.

Ithvas largely his influence with them and nis location among them, that kept up such good relations between them and tho whites on the frontier, and that saved this State from the massacres that have attended the earlier settlements and development of nearly every other State. Black Hawk, Keokuk, Oskaloo6a and Appanoose he knew in that day as well as he now knows the leading men among the people of to day, and all of these ana the other chiefs of that time were frequently at his home and at its generous board. To him they came to have all the difference* between the tribes and the white settlers adjusted, and his decisions stood as law, whiqh tfcey enforced,

What Uncle Tom could tell of early Iowa is joist what future Iowa ought to kaow. Of all men he is the most competent to give to history the facts of our early times. He is still in the fa'l vigor of manhood and strength, and no straoger seeing him would take him to be over fifty-five. Ha could write this whole slot? as well as he tells it, and he has promised as often as Elijah Hayden promised to every'man he met a pup, that he would, in the leisure of some winterwrite up a pftrt of it for the register. But he never does it. Doubtless the fact that h* was so prominent in all those early days that for him to write it up now would seem like egotism, is the principal reasn that keeps him with his modest nature from doing it.

Honored and Blett.

When aboard of eminent physicians and chemists announced the discovery that by combining some well known valuable remedies, the most' wonderful medicine was produced, which would cure such a wide range of disease* that most til other remedies could be dispenced with, many were skeptical but proof of its merits by actual trial has dispelled all doubts, ana today the discoverers of hat great medicine, Bop Bitters, are honored and blessed by all is benefaoors.—Democrat.

Animal Reasoning.

A lady, a friend of mine, was nt one time matron of a hospital for poor women and children which was maintained by subscription. One of the inmates was a blind gill who was not there as a patient, but temporally till a home could be found for her. She nad learned to feed hereelf, and at meal times a tray containing'her dinner was placed on her knees as she sat in a comfortable chair for her special convenience in feeding herself. One day while She was eating, the pet cat of the establishment placed herself before the girl add looked long and earnestly at her, so earnestly that the matron, fearing the animal meditated some mischief to the girl, took her out of the room. Again the next day, at the same hour, the cat entered the room, but this time walked quietly to the girl's side, reared herself on her hind legs, and noiselessly, stealthily reached out her paw to the plate, selected and seized a morsel that pleased her, and, silently as she came, departed to enjoy her stolen meal. The girl flever noticed her loss, and when told of it by her companions laughed very heartily. It is evident that the cat from observation had entirely satisfied herself that the girl «ould not see, and by a process of rcssoning decided she could steal a good dinner by this practical use of her knowledge.—Nature.

Don't worry, children, but just leave that matter to your mother, and devote your attention to getting up something "about "Who Will Spank Us When Ma's Mart ried 3Iad!" exclaimed a South End girl, guess I am as mad as a hornet. There I,ve been playing a certain jolly tune on the piano every Sunday for the last ten years —it's such fun to be a little wicked, you know—and now come to find out it's a psalm tune! Was ever anything more aggravating?" "I don't like a cottage-built man," said youug Sweeps to his rich old uncle, who was telling the story of his early trials for tho hundredth time.
