4 Shutter's Desperate Fight In the South
ern Oragon Mountains.
Intelligent has been received here
from southern Oregon of the unfortu
nate result of a conflict Iwtweeit a
hunter and a cougar. Ira Hill and a
companion, of Jackson oounly had for
several days been encamped in the
mountains about ten miles ' distant
from the Cow creek canyon. They had
met with much success u the pursuit
of deer.;, . j, -..- '' !
Warned by the abundance of
"siirns." they had exercised groat cuu-
tiou for their protection against the
large cariuverous animals which in
fest that region. Mr. Mill, it appears,
on the (lay in question shot and
wounded a' large buck. Notwith
standing the severe ftijury, the ani
mal, as it frequently huumMis, bound
ed away. Judging from the notion of
the deer thai the bullet had found its
mark, the hunter clambered down the
mountain side to the point where the
animal stood when the shot was nred.
An investigation verillod his suppo
sition. Hoping that the shot would
soon prove fatal, ho traced, by the
blood in the trail, the flight of the
deert several times sct'ins it, but never
obtaining an opportunity to finish
hiiu. Wrapped ui the excitement of
the chase, time passed unheeded.
Nearly exhausted with the severity of
the labor, and despairing of success, he
began to retrace his steps. Night
overtook him, and with it came .hut
peculiar deathlike mountain silence.
The gentleman confesses that he was
overawed and frightened by the soli
tude and gloom. After debating in
his mind the advisability of hailing
for the night, he decided" to push on,
hoping to liud his permanent camp
and relieve the anxiety of his friend.
. While descending a ridge which ran
up from a dork and narrow canyon,
without any warning he was attacked
by an enormous cougar. In this
hand-to-hand conflict the rille was
useless Dropping that weapon, he
drew his hunting knife and made
what effort he could to defend himself-
For some time they fought
with the advantage greatlv unon the
side of the cougar. While the struggle
was at its height, approacmng near
the edge of a steep declivity, man and
beast "both went rolling down the
gulch.
Weakened by the loss of blood and
stunned by contact with rocks and
bowlders, consciousness forsook the
hunter. lie remained in this condi
tion uijtil well nigh morning. Re
membering the strength and ferocity
of his antagonist, and fearing that it
still lurked in the immediate vicinity,
he remained motionless until sun up.
When he did arise no trace of the
animal could . be found. Fearfully
bitten, scratched and bruised, he made
his painful way to camp, and thence
to a point where the services of a sur
geon could be secured. Portland Ore

Superstition About Storms.
Caverns were supposed by the Ro
mans to be secure places of refuge
during thunder storms, and they be
lieved that lightning never penetrated
more than two yards into the earth.
Acting on this superstition the Em
peror Augustus used to withdraw into
some deep vault of the palace when
ever a temptest was feared, and it is
recorded by Suetonius that he always
wore a skin of seal around his body as
a protection against lightning. That
both precautions are equally unavail
ing need scarcely be mentioned.
Lightning has been known to strike
ten feet into the earth ; but not even
the marvelous accuracy of modem
science can determine at what distance
from the surface a safe retreat may be
found from the descending fluid; and
even were this ascertained, tlio dan
gers from ascending electric curr rents
remain the same. With regard to seal
skins, we find that the Romans attach
ed so much faith to them as non-conductors
that tents were made of thcin,
beneath which the timid used to take
refuge.
It is a curious fact thnt in the neigh
borhood of Mount Cavcunes, in the
Languedoc, where anciently some Ro
man colonies were known to have ex
isted, the shepherds cherished a simi
lar superstition regarding the skins of
serpents.. These tney careiuny col
lect, and, having covered their hats
withal, believe themselves secure
against the danger of the storm. M.
Labossiere is disposed to see a link of
interesting analogy between the leg
end which yet lingers in the mind of
the peasant of Ca venues and the most
costly superstition held 4n reverence

the cheerful showman, "and I par

in introducing running water and

Paul. "Praises from a man of your

you still more heartily if you will

the shah's great kindness. After he
had been presented, and had assumed
the duties of his oflice, his greatest of
ficial burden was the care of his ele

day, when the intimation was polite
ly conveyed that the shah expected a
present from him. ;
"Oertainlv.'" said Winston", as a
smilo wreathed his face. "I have only
been waiting to secure one worthy of
so great a ruler."
That afternoon he proceeded in state
to the palace and presented -the shah
