BITTER, CF. HEX'S BAD MAN. Iha Original Citizen Who Made Life Miserable for the People. From t!ve San Fitt ?('■/..C0 Examiner. Nay, hail I the power I'd pour T!: I- sweet milk ot' Concord into he'd, Uproar the universal lienee. Confound all unity on earth. “1 admit that I m:t from Bitter Creek,” Olid W. K. Robbins tit the Russ House yes terday. **l can’t help it. 1 wils from there, anil now can’t very well got away for keeps. Besides, why should I? I am doing very well tlmro and like the place. "But I get a littlo weary. Everywhere I go when I put down my name the tool clerk gjiys: •* ‘Oh, aha! You'r the Bad Man from Bit ter Creek, are you;’ “These tilings malto me weary! Now to the idiotic clerks aud others, perhaps, who make the remark", but awfully old to me. “You say you hall' supposed this Bitter frock, or at least the Bad part of it, t- .he hypothetical ? Not a bit or it. Con sult your map. You’ll find one Bitter Creek' in Wyoming, two in Arizona, one, ami possibly two, m Utah, one in Montana, and one in California. Almost all are small streams, or they would l>c called rivers, ;ts you may suppose. “Well the genuine and historic stream is in southwestern Montana, and that's where I hail from. The ereeic is 110 miles long, ami empties into the Clark’s Fork of the Columbia. * “The bad man was a fellow named Jim Yount, tin exceedingly rocky individual, who came there in very early times from Tennessee. Nobody knew the exact date, for he was ahead of most everybody else. He was none of your ‘mild-mannered’ sort „f men as Slade was represented to be. t iriginallv in Tennessee, I suppose he was a Knob-hlUer, aud as he grew older he rapidly grew 'tvoi'M 1 . “Upon my word, he was tho most vicious, vindictive man I ever hoard of. He fairly learned his title. We heard he was a mur derer in Tennessee of three boys, playmates school whom ho didn’t like. He sloped to Missouri aud knifed ah old gentleman, in whose employ he was, because the old man insisted on his getting up at 7 o’clock in the morning. . “He biassed ms way m this manner pretty effectually to the West. Ono of his first deeds, which the pioneers of Montana recol lect, was tho shooting off of both oars of a bull-whacker by Jim “Jim saw him driving along, and re marked to a friend that he thought he could make a center-shot on the teamster's big ear. The friend doubted it, and he let her go. He struck the auditing apparatus plum in the middle. Before the teamster could clap his hand on the shot ear whack went a ball through the other one. “The bad man then asked the bull-whacker if he didn't want him to present him with a couple of earbobs, since he had such nice round holes to put them in. .j 'His next deed was to burn a school house —some twenty miles away. He claimed the children made faces at him as he was going along one day, aud he'd be hanged If he’d have such kids to grow up to know any more than he did. “In a dispute with two Confederates about some stolen horses in ’6O, a year after this school house, he killed both of them, took all the stock and gobbled their money. He didn’t even bury tne fellows, but left their bodies lying only fifty yards or so from tho corral. “But his best hold was in the saloons. He’d drink a barrel of whisky every few days—no soft drinks for him—whisky every time. He had a bleared, blotched face, that looked like a chrotno, and his oaths and language in general was something fright ful to hoar. “I don’t recollect a crime in those early days that he didn't commit. He held up stages, stole bullion and robbed mails witli impunity. Nobody molested him. Every body feigned not to know' who did it, and everybody went around cringingly asking Jim as thev patted him on the back, to take a drink. Quite often- he’d get mad at this even, and tell them to have a care how they came slobboring around him or he’d shoot the tops of their beads off. “Jim played many brilliant engagements cf this sort around Virginia City, in Mon tana, Boulder City and other places. His Bitter Creek ranch was only a rendezvous for him, a sort of a central or pivotal point, where he and fellow thieves rounded up then- stolen horses and cattle. “Jim ran along for several years in this way, cutting, shooting and killing until he boasted himself that two graveyards wouldn’t hold the people that he had laid away. * “In ’67, however, Jim made one trip too often to Helena. He had made his record over there. But the rich placers had drawn a host of bad men there, and one night when Jim drew his artillery in Tom Best’s gambling dive and began to lay on right and left he got a ball in his heart’ that forever fixed him: “Of tne crowd, though, he killed four first and maimed for life three or four more. He was buried out in the foothills near Helena, and for a long time and until it rot ted away a plain pine board marked his grave and bore tho inscription: THE BAD MAN FROM BITTER CREEK. “I think Jim was about 40 years old when he was rounded in. It was a glad day for Bitter Creek and a joyful one for Helena, which for a long time boasted that it had tucked our baa man away under the daisies. “Now, you might think that our region is full of such citizens as Jim, but it is not so. We are now, at least, a quiet, peaceable community, devoted to ranching and agri culture. It would do you good to visit Bit ter Creek.” SAMUEL FROST’S BRAIN. His Death Reveals Why for Years He Wore His Hat by Day and by N ght. From (he San Francisco Chronicle. Just at the close of the recent session of the State Medical Society Dr. Albert Chase, of this city, arose and requested a moment's attention. He uurapjied a newspaper and fondly drew forth a human skull, in the crown of which was a large jagged hole. The doctor said that the skull was formerly thut of a friend of his, who had boon toma hawked and scalped by Indians while cross ing the plains in pioneer days, but surviving his injuries ho had lived ten years. Dr. Chase considered the case one of the most remarkable on record. From a scientific point of view the skull refuted many common theories regarding the brain, and was a complete contradiction of the science of phrenology. Probably every one who lived In Sierra comity during the fifties remembers Samuel Frost, of Frost's mine, on the divide above Downievillo. Frost is the man whoso skull is creating a furor in medical circles. He was a well-known man, and during the later years of his life was the owner of a valuable quartz mine. Frost was known as a man of poworfui physique, great business ability and energy. Hut no one ever saw Frost during life with his hat oir. Indoor* and out of uoors. at meals and in bed, Frost ulwavs wore his hat pulled close down over his head. Had his hat been removed there would have been revealed a revolting spectacle —r> scalplcss head, and in the crown of the skuli a jagged hole about four inches long by three inches wide, out of which decaying brains pro truded, protected by no covering except the felt of the hat. For ten years Frost lived in tills honditiou, conducting a huge busi ness with energy and skill. Few even of his most intimate friend* ever heard his story, and non* in its entirety, fro* he was very reticent about this misfortune and of his life preceding it. His native State was un known. His story always Imgan when his party was nearing Fort Laramie. Up to tliat lime no traces of hostile Indians had been-observed, and the party hod grown a little careless. Ore night it camped in a small, brushy, ynlliy surrounded by low hills. The cain(iei : s had been asleep a few horn's when suddenly the Indian w*u’ yell ftwakwl 'hem, but hardly could they lift themselves from blteir blankets before they w ere struck down by thetomahawk and the Indian knife encircled their scalps. Frost was sleeping in ono of tho wagons, and was me at first observed. He saw an Indian spring from his hoi'sc to scalp a victim, and took advantage of the opportunity and leaped on tho Indian’s horse and dashed off down tho creek. Two pursuers wen* quickly on his trait. Being without sours. the redskins yelling and s.inekius like demons, rapidly coined upon mm. H.s only weapon was a pistol, and as tne Indians closed upon him be turned in Ins saddle and fired. Tho nearagj; of his pursuers gave his last yell and fell from his horse. But it. was only a momentary ad vantage, for the next instant a sharp pain darted through his shoulder, and ho saw an Indian arrow-head protruding from Iris shoulder. With a stoic carelessness of pain often observed by others in later years, he broke off the head. and then jerked out the arrow. Hardly had he done so when he felt a crushing blow on his bend, and know tnhttho tomahawk had fulfilled its mission. >v heu he came to his senses the sun was shining hotly. lie put his hand to his head and lelt clotted blood and realized that he haci been scalped and that his skull was broken. Then he remembered crawling to the creek aud attempting to wash the blood away, and also of creeping back to the camp and finding the bodies of his comrades lying dead and scalped. It was several weeks be fore he again recovered consciousness, when he found nimself in the hut of an Indian squaw, who had nursed him. Fie learned from her that none of the party except him self had escaped. He remained with the squaw several months until the scalp had healed about the skull, and at last joined a passing party bound for California, and I thus reached Downieville. Upon the skull in Dr. Chase’s possession is written, “August 4, 1851,” which the date of Frost’s arrival in Downieville. He was intelligent, and pos sessed considerable education, but he never would allow any one to look at his head, nor would he ever permit a physician to attend him. Dr. Chase once requested the privilege of seeing the wound, but Frost re fused, and never was attended by a physi cian. Frost had a great fondness for strolling over the hills with his rifle on his shoulder. To mention the word “Indian” in his pre sence would call up a cloud of furv in his face. Frequently h“ was heard to declare that no Indian could over pass out of his sight alive. Iu those days an Indian’s life was not counted for much, and the occa sional dead bravo found in the woods caused no inquiry-to be made. In 1861 Frost was suddenly' stricken with paralysis. While he had strength ho would permit no one to re move his hat. In three weeks he died. “He was buried next day,” said Dr. Chase to a reporter, “and the next night a post mortem examination was held by a few phy sicians, of which I was one. The cause of science knows no law. AYe saw for the first time his head. The scalp had been taken off close down about the cal's and for. lieud. From this hole in the bone,” pointing to his friend’s head-piece, “protruded a fungus mass. This we shaved off iu thin slices to a depth of about 2 inches, when we found a piece of the skull bone about the size of a silver dollar. It had sunken upon the nerves of the vital organs, thus causing paralysis.” Nearly the entire middle lobe of the brain had wasted away, yet Frost was always re garded as a man of strong intellect. ’ The remarkable peculiarity of the skull from ti scientific point of view' is that the rear is distended. The bone is bulged out appre ciably by an abnormal development of the brain in this part, which Dr. Chase argues, nature required to supply the place of the lost portions. Another singular fact is that the distention of the skull is appreciably greater on the left side than on the right, in conformity with the fact that more of the left lobe was destroyed than of the right. Dr. Chase contends that these facts show plainly that the upper portion of the brain being destroyed the lower portions W'ere developed, and that any one portion of the brain can perform the functions of any other. Consequently, he says, the doc trine of bumps and that certain sections of tho brain control certain faculties is non sense. BROWN’S IRON BITTERS.
