This ’Spring I became much debilitated and again took an- other course, and I am now in good condition. I consider P. P.

An Experiment. which Proved of No Value to the Government. The Animals at Last Allowed to \Vander Over the Prairies at Their Own Sweet \Vill. In 1852, when millions of gold were being mined in California, while thous- ands of people were crossing the plains to the new Dorado, and when a transcontinental railroad was only a vague dream of a few enthusiasts. Lieutenant Edward B. Beale (after- ward General Beale) was stationed at Fort Yuma, between California and Arizona on the Colorado Desert. A stream of immigration and freight passed that way every week. The dis- ease, suffering and frequent death among the horses and mules in that dry, solar heat, convinced Lieutenant Beale that here, of all places, was where the camels of Sahara and Ara- bia could be used to advantage. In connection with Captain Adams. of the garrison, he wrote at length upon the subject to Jefferson Davis, Secre- tary of War. The ideas of the young military men in the West had immediate and enthu- siastic reception by the Secretary. A: Commission was soon sent out from San Antonio, Tex., to Arizona, to as- certainthe uses that camels could be put to in military transportation. The Commission made a favorable report, and, with Secretary Davis’s annual re- port to Congress in 1852 there was a request for an appropriation for the purchase of camels for the War De- partment. On March 3, 1853, a bill appropriat- ing $30,000 for the purpose became a law by the President’s signature, and Secretary Davis appointed Major C. Wayne in December, 1854, to go to Egypt and Arabia to buy seventy-five camels. Lieutenant Porter and Major Wayne bought their first camels in Tunis. From Egypt Major Wayne and Lieu- tenant Porter went lieusurely over to Arabia. There they bought more camels of another breed. The expedi- tion received at Smyrna thirty-three camels from the interior. In the Government book Secretary Davis tells in detail how he instructed Major Wayne to proceed from Paris to Cairo, and when he had bought his camels to bring them to New York on the Naval Storeship Supply, then under command of Lieutenant D. D. Porter. Lieutenant Porter’s instructions were to await Major Wayne at some convenient point in the Mediterranean, to disembark a land force at Beirout, and to see that the expedition was amply protected against attacks from the warlike tribes of the interior. 0n returning, the lieutenant was to land his cargo at .some point on the coast of Texas. ' The storeship Supply reached Indian- 013, Tex., on February 10, having lost three camels on the voyage. Those that survived were well, and the whole drove was taken under the care of Captain J. N. Palmer, U. S. A., to Camp Verde, Texas, there to be kept several years. The Suwanee brought in a load of forty—one camels on Feb- ruary 10, 1857, and these, too, were sent to the interior. Almost from the first there was dif- ficulty in grooming and feeding the animals. In a few weeks several died of unknown diseases, and others languished and became unfit for work. The military officers found it hard to get any hostler to attend to the cam- els, towards which all the cavalrymen and troopers took a violent dislike. The horses became restive and ugly when stabled or corralled with the strange beasts. There were frequent reports that a camel or two had broken away during the night and wandered away; and it has been suspected that extra- ordinary zeal was not always put forth to find the animals and bring them back. From May 5, 1861. some thirty of the camels that had become partly do- mesticated to American ways and adapted to the climate of the South- west, were kept at the United States forts at El Paso and Bowie, Ariz. They were fed and cared for at the ex- pense of the War Department, but be- cause the troopers and teamsters could not be got use them in place of horses or mules, and especially be- cause of the clumsiness of the bar- ness and the unusual labor in packing, the animals were seldom used. In the last year or two of their stay at the garrison they were merely pensioners upon Uncle Sam's bounty, and were never brought into service. In 1861 the herd had increased to forty-four head. Then the Cival War came on. and in the stir of those days in every fort in the South all attention was turned to the great crisis. The forts fell into disuse, and the beasts were allowed to wander away at will. They travelled in pairs, and sometimes in bunches of four and six, across the deserts and into the mountains. Some lived for years in the Panhandle of Texas, and in the Colorado River. In some instances the camels multiplied, but in twenty years most of them died among the mountains or were killed by the Indians. At intervals in the last decade sol- diers and cow-boys in New—Mexico and Arizona have seen the strays. Reports are that the animals have grown white with age, are as wild as any mustang, and have hard. bony hoofs, unlike the pedal cushions of the well-kept camel, and that their hide has assumed a hard, leathery appearance. Itis likely there are few left in America. They have not been seen in the central part of either New-Mexico or Arizona in Several years—From the Land of Sun- shine. Ladies’.. Waist With Bolero.
