HUNTING Trig GRIZZLY BEAR.
Bow tha Animal Xa Moat BnccsaafnUy
Trail ped.
The grizzly bear la the only animal
In America that Is really dangerous,
says a writer In the Illustrated Sport
ing News. We all know that anyonl
rial will fight If cornered; a bull moose
may be ugly and charge; a black boar
will fight for her cubs or If woundod,
but the grlnly, "Old Undo Ephralm,"
the "mountain men" call him, Is al
ways ugly and ready for n fight. Bo
well is this fact recognized that Tory
seldom do any of tho old-timers tnko
a chance unless everything Is In their
favor. Their Immense size, coupled
with their ugly disposition, makes
thorn Indeed vory dangerous. There
are many cases on record of grizzlies
weighing 1,500 pounds. I hnvo never
seen one that weighed actually that
much, but hare seen soreral that
Weighed oTer 1,000 pounds, and have
seen skins tbnt were much larger than
any I hare killed; so do not doubt the
statement that thty grew to weigh
1,600 pounds.
The most common methods of killing
grlaillas are to watch a bait at night
or to trap them, either with a large
steel trap or a long pen with a falling
door made of heary timber. The steel
trap la the moat successful, although
not considered rery sportsmanlike.
I know of two cases where a gristly
was shot through tho heart and yet
lived long enough to run 160 yards and,
In one case, maul a man very badly.
Thoso bears, although killed early In
September, wero In good fur, tho large
ono (ostlnuttcd to weigh 1,200 pounds),
particularly so, the fur being long,
clean and very well marked. The
smaller bear (estimated to weigh 800
pounds) was rery thin, but had good
fur. The large bear was a veteran
surely, as on skinning him eight bul
leta and several buckshot wero found
two of tho bullets being round, such as
wero used by the Indians many years
ago in their old smoothbores.
FOX FARM A FAILURE.
Animals Escaped from Island to Mains
"Woods Orer Ice.
A man named Sktlllngs, of Bangor,
recontly started a new industry on an
Island off the const between Machlas
and Jonesport, Me., says tho Portland
Express. This was fox-ralslng. He
bclloTed that there was money to bo
made In raising foxes for their hides,
and so leased what Is known as Triton
Island, some distance off the coast
IUrlng secured the island, he went
west and bought about sixty of the
finest furred and most hardy foxes he
could find, paying for some of them
aa high as $500 apiece. These he placed
ou the Island last fall and started his
fox farm with every prospect that bis
novel plan would be a success.
Of course, the Island being some dis
tance from tho land, It waa Impossible
for tho foxes to get off and so fence
were not necessary. This winter cam
with Its cold weather and gradually
the water between Triton Island and
tho mainland closed slowly In until
finally the wide passage waa covered
with thick Ice which could support a
man or a team, for that matter.
All this had been going on so quietly
that Mr. Skllllngs had quite failed to
think of what this rapidly forming Ice
might mean to his new Industry, and
one morning he awoke to find that
every fox he owned had escaped from
the island to the mainland and had
taken to the heavy growth of timber
which covers much of this section nf
the coast Mr. Skllllnga Instituted
searches and acourod the surrounding
country, but he has not succoeded In
recovering one of tho animals. The
sixty foxes, many of which wvra ex
tremely valuable, aggreguted an
amount of many thousands of dollara
and the loss gives every indication of
being a total one.
Frog-rsss tat lstdta.
The ancient templea and tombs of
India with their Intricate earring are
the marvel of all who a them, aaya
the author of "Oltiea of India," and the
wonder of the bebolder grows when he
realises that the enormous blocks of
marble and sandstone hare been
dragged, by hand In many cases, up
step and lofty cliffs.
Some years ago Mr. Forrest, while
walking through a remote village of
the Dcccan, noticed a large ntono pil
lar, richly carved, lying by tho road
side. He asked the origin and destina
tion of the monolith. It was for the
porch of a temple on the brow of a
precipice two miles away, overlooking
the hamlet
"The villagers drag it" said the
head officer of the placo, "on great fes
tival days. In my lifetime, sahib, they
have moved it a hundred yards. And
see how much carving tney have
done."
He pointed to some eight Inches of
wonderful decoration. The officer was
nearly 50 years of age, and the trav
eler looked in astonishment wonder
ing how long before the pilar would
complete Its Journey, An old Drahmln
standing by noticed his expression.
"You English are in such a hurry,"
be aald. "There la the age of brass
and the ago of iron. They come and
they go. Others have come and gone
their way, aud ao will you. Hut the
pillar will reach the temple."
His reply was the spirit of ancient
India, which takes no heed of to-day,
but having set about tho construction
of such a monument goes steadily at
work, satisfied to devote a thouaand
years to it If the teraplo bo worthy to
endure when it la done.
Tho Two WillUms.
The Kaiser's unqualified respect for
the divinity that "doth hodgo a king"
1b revealed In an anecdoto found In tha
"Memoirs" of Ludwlg Bornoy, tho Ger
man tragedian.
On an evening when "Richard II."
was played at tho Berlin Theater in
tho presence of his Majesty, the Kulsor
sent for Darney at the close, and said
to him:
"During tho performanco four line
were recited which are not to bo found
In ShakBpoaro'a works."
"It is true, aire," replied Barney.
"They aro an Interpolation by Dlngel
stodt in order to obtain greater clear
ness." The Kaiser frowned. "In futuro such
mutilation must be avoided," ho said.
