I JloW Jerry geat the Hunters. HN thr eastern part of New Hamp shire, 'l,llv" In "" southern bulf of the State, there In a long, low m'lge of bill, (he highest of which li known at lMuc Ulll, or Croydon moun tain. Tills peak ll nearly 3.000 fttl la height, towering In frleuilly rivalry lo i ....iL'libor. the Wstor e Rcursiirire. not ; thirty miles away. Nearly the whole of the mountain Is I,,, Itidt'tl In the famous Corblu park, a tract of 28,000 acres inclosed nn a game preserve by the late Austin Curhln, and probably one of the largest In the Uni ted States. A Inrge portion Is heavily wooded. and, uutll within a few year, was the haunt of animals as wild ami savage as any that now roam in the wilderness. As late as 1MI7 a wolf was shot ou this mountain, nud bears have been seeu there even since that date. In the fall of the opening year of the century the people of all the towns around Croydon mountain Jolued In a great hunt for a bear whose destruel iveliess had caused them a great deal of trouble. Scarcely a farmer In the whole section but had experienced a loss In his sheepfold, pigpen or barn yard, and It was determined to hunt brnln to the bitter end. The bear was 1 elleved to be an unusually large and ferocious animal, hence the feeling galliot him was aggravated quite as much by tear as by the desire to pun ish him. The party organized at the foot of the mountain, and formed a great circle of men, boys and dogs. The signal horn was sounded for starting and continued around the whole circle, which signal wus to be repeated every half hoifr un til nil arrived at the top of the moun tain. All through that clear October day the souud of horns and the barking of dogs startled the echoes of the wooded bills. 1'eople In the valleys beard the repeated signaling, but their listening ears could dtotlugulsh nothing to Indi cate the success of the hunters. High up on the eastern slope of the mountain was the Andrews homestead, which comprised an ordinary sixty-acre lot, with the farm buildings erected by Mr. Andrews. The settler had died a year or two previously, and the work devolved upon Jerry, a bjy of 13. sturdy aud freckle-faced, and somewhat large Bitrrx cnAwi.an nearer and nearer. for hlo years. Jerry had not gone out with the hunters, the sowing of n piece of rye compelling him to remain at borne. The pioneer boy was destined, how ever, to meet with an adventure much more exciting than any that befell the hunters. Jerry finished sowing his rye late In the afternoon, and as the suu was still an hour or two high he went across lots to visit several traps he had Mt for mink In the upper pasture. He exam ined his traps, tlndlng an Imprisoned mink In one. and started homeward Just as the dusk was beginning to creep down the mountain. He directed his steps through the low er pasture, wherein was Inclosed the fnrm stock, they having beeu shut off from ranging the higher pnsture since the depredations of llrulu had become bo alarming. He could bear the familiar tlnk-o llug of the cow bell as he hurried In seurcli of the cattle In the thickening gloom. He found them grouped In a bunch, tossing their horns nnd acting In a atrnnge manner. Jerry's tlrst thought was of the presence of a bear, and he hurriedly looked over the herd to see If any were missing. To his dlomny he could not find a favorite yearling. Jerry was no coward, lint he had no weapon with him, nor nnythlng that would answer for one except the heavy hoe which he had used to dig nround the stumps In the rye Held. With this In haud, he started off In search of the heifer. He tried to think that perhaps the creature had waudered away by her self, and this Idea was strengthened when he found some trncks wblcb he thought were hern near a piece of marshy ground that bordered the woods. The tracks led directly Into the forest, and the pioneer lad, thinking only of discovering the missing year ling, plunged Into the undergrowth. It was so dark that he could not see objects distinctly, and the darkness was rapidly Increasing; but Jerry hur ried on over rocks and logs and through brlere and brakes. Suddenly he paused, but only for a moment. There, not ten feet from Dim. by the side of a fallen tree, was a (lark object that he took to be the wandering heifer. Impatient at :he steps she had caused him. the boy -ushed forward and struck the reclln Jig animal a sharp blow upon the ribs with the hoe. Instantly there waa a. low. surly rrowl, and there rose up to confront the lad, not the missing heifer, but the tall, nenacing form of a huge Mack bear, whose Jaws were all beomeared with blood. To say that Jerry was startled would be putting It mildly. He was scared; be could feel his hair stiffen under all ragged fur cap. and bis legs trembled beneath him. Hut he had the pluck of i Yankee boy. and be was Indignant ai the losa of bis favorite yearling. Step ping back a pace or two. he leveled his heavy boe full at the black, blood stained muaxle, and struck with all his night. But the bear warded It as del lerously aa a boxer might, and the uexi moment Jerry felt bis weapon snatched from bis grasp. The pioneer lad now thought discre tion the better part of valor, and mak ing out a low bough before him be seized bold of It and swung himself up Into the tree. He hoped the bear would not follow him, but he was disappoint ed. With a sort of a snort and r growl the enraged beast crawled to the truuk and began slowly to climb the tree. Aa It happened, the tree was an Im mense oak. and Jerry hurriedly clam bered to the topmost branch, where, clinging to the fork of a limb, he await ed the approach of bis enemy. Tbe bear worked his way up among the branches with the skill of a aallor In the shrouds. He seemed determined In his advances, and Jerry began to edge off as far as he dared, for the limb to which he was clinging ttegan to bend under his weight Urulu crawled near er and nearer. Jerry scarcely dared to breathe. H bad a hugo Jackknlfe In bis pocket that the village blacksmith at "the corners" had mude for him that very season, for use In skinning mluks and muskrais. The loy drew this, anil, opening the long, keen blade, prepared to defend himself as best he could. He was all grit ami had not a thought of surrender In bis mind. Now the bear was very near him; he could feel the brute's warm, sickening breath In his face. Supporting himself with one hand, he struck forward a strong, quick blow with his right. He aimed directly for the eyes, but lustead the sharp blade cut a deep, ugly gash In the great black snout. That portion of a brute's anatomy Is always more or less sensitive, and Kruln's was peculiarly so. The sudden ness of the attack disconcerted blm, and. sulttlng fiercely, the great beast drew back. In changing Its position the benr chanced to throw Iti weight upon a decayed limb. It snapied like a plpestem. and the next Instant the heavy carcass descended through the branches and struck the ground below with a deadening thud. Waiting a few moments to see If the bear stirred, nnd hearing nothing but a slight groan, Jerry carefully descended the tree. His tlrst act was to secure his hoe. Then he approached the tn-ar, and tlndlng that the animal could not stir, having apparently broken Its back by the fall, the lioy belabored the nar row, cruel head till It was a maso of bruised and bleeding flesh. The plucky boy had hardly struck his Inst blow when a dog barked close nt hand, and a few moments afterward half a dozen men walked up to the spot. They were a party of the hunters re turning from the hunt, and several of them Jerry knew. "Well, my lad, you have beat us all," said one of the men, his nearest neigh bor below, after he had heard tbe boy's story. "We have hunted all day for this fellow and couldn't find hnlr nor claw of the brute. You deserve a farm, Jerry, for I Imagine our barnyardi and pigpens will be safe enough now." They found the mangled carcass of the young heifer a few roils away, but Hruln's skin and the bounty paid by the State more than compensated Jerry for the loss. For many a year afterward he was the hero of that region, and old men now living can remember having him pointed out to them as the boy who beat the hunters.-Chicago Record. BISA TAW tASPT-klALATO.
