Harvesting with tlio rudo iinplcmcnta
vas a Bccno. Imagine thrco or four
Jiundrcd wild Indians in a grain field
armed, fiomo with sickles, kouio with
batcher knives, soino with pieces of
Jioop Iron roughly fashioned into f hapes
like sickles, but many having only their
hands with which to gather by small
Landfills the dry and brittle grain;
and, as their hands would soon be
come sore, they resorted to dry willow
sticks, which wcro split to afford a
sharper edge with which to sever tho
straw. Hut tho wildest part was tho
threshing. Tho harvest of weeks,
sometimes of a month, was piled up in
the straw in the form ol a hugo mound
in tho middle of a high, strong, round
corral; then threo or four hundred wild
horses wero turned in to thresh it, tho
Indians whooping to mako them run
iastor.
Suddenly they would dash in before
tho band at full ?peed, when 'tho mo
tion became reversed, with tho effect
or plowing up tho trampled straw to,
the very bottom. In an hour tho grain
-would bo thoroughly threshed and the
dry straw broken almost into chaff. In
this manner I have seen 2,000 bushels
of wheat threshed In a single hour.
Next camo the winnowing, which would
often tnko another month. It could
only bo done when tho wind was blow
ing, by throwing high into tho air
nhovclfuls of grain, straw and chaff,
tho lighter materials being wafted to
ono sido, while tho grain, comparative
ly clean, would descend and form a
heap by Itself. In this manner all tho
inain in California was cleaned. At
that day no buch thing us u fanning
mill had over been brought to this
'coast. Gen. Hidwcll in Century.

A thrilling story of an encounter with
a leonard comes from Serajgunge, in In

longing to the locality went out to mint
a leopard that had been making its pres
ence unpleasantly telt in tlio neigiioor
ing villages. Neither was accustomed to
hunting or to the use of firearms, but
both wero full of pluck and eager to
show their prowess. They took up their
station on a patch of cleared ground,
awaiting tho leopard that the beaters
wero chasing from his lair, when sud
denly the brute leaped on ono of them
and caught him by tho thigh, inflicting
terrible injuries.
II is com pan ion, &eeing his danger, tried
to fire at the brute, but unfortunately tho
safety pin, with the use of which ho was
unacquainted, had locked tho gun, so
that the trigger would not move. He
tried to beat tho leopard off from his
companion, but the enraged boast turned
upon him, stripping his arm and literally
crunching his hand. Two of tho beaters
came up and used their bamboos with
such effect that tho animal turned tail
and returned to the jungle. Tho two
Europeans wero removed to Serajguugo,

was in such a critical condition that ho
could not be moved. Ho died shortly
