He was taking a herd of 400 ateers to Lead villa and bad camped for the night on Bear river, near Its Junction with tbs Little Snake. At midnight when be went on guard, i all was quiet but in an hour or so. fur some unexplained reason, tbe cattle were up aud off like a flash. Some thing bad stampeded them. He was .riding an old blue colored line backed California broncbo. Just the benat for tbe work. He bad often ridden blm a hundred miles a day. Tbe nigbt was dark .and cloudy, and be bad to rely on (he animal’s sure footednesa as be strove to stay an tbe flank, of tbe steers and turn them until their scare should cease. It was a wild race. Four or fire rimes tbe broncho gave tremendous Jumps, bul landed right and went on In good shape- In tbe course of an hour or so tbe man bad the bee re* •juleted. ~ “ ■When “ day light came, being curious to learn what otwtactae bad occasioned those tremendous Jumps of tbe brop cho. tbe man aet forth to look over tbe ground. Leaving tbe bottom land, the steers bad ascended a gentle acclivity, and on tbe plateau at tbe top he had kept circling them. The plateau was Intersected by a canyon about four miles long and from 1,500 to 2.000 feet deep. Its walls In dined toward each other at the top. and tbe distance across was fifteen or twenty feet During tbe chase tbe broncbo bad Jumped that frightful chasm four times. Effeh hoof marks were plainly visible, and down in tbe debris, bun dreds o f feet below, were a dozen mangled steers that bad been crowded Off.— I .on Angeles Times.

A Once Thriving Industry That Has Nearly Vanished. At tbe outbreak of tbe American Bev olotion and for a period o f seventy-five years following tbe conclusion o f that struggle whaling was tbe most Impor tant branch of the American fisbertas. From 000 to 700 vessels sought whales tn all the oceans and seas o f the world, and in one yaar New Bedford alone eent out 800 vessels, whose cargoes of ■boas and oil were the hasta o f the In dustrial life o f the city. Tbe pursuit of sperm whales reached its climax in 1887, when oil valued gt oedrty $4.500.000 was brought tn. (float- ly from tbe south Pacific The of the Industry we* in 184«. 000 persona derivad their support from whales and 780 vessels, valued at $81.- 000 . 000 . were engaged. For more than fifty years the fishery has been declining, sad tn numerous ports that once derived most of tbetr wealth from tbe Industry there bave_ 'for a long time existed only bf former greatness. For a number of years the sperm, right and bow bead whales that supported the fishery tn early years have been very scare* and their pursuit has been unprofitable, and the present Importance of the whale fishery, amounting In value to leas than 2 per cent of the American fisheries, depends on tbe taking from •bore stations of species of whales that formerly were for the most pert neg lected. The glory'of the whale fishery has departed forever, and the commercial If not tbe biological extinction of ell kinds of whales Is proceeding rapidly, undeterred and un la men ted by tbe principal maritime power«.—Hugh M.

A river not confined to a single chan nel, but broken up tnto e number of channels, which tn turn branch and unite tn a com plea and confusing man ner, Is called a braided stream. It la caused by tbe slight fall of the stream, which prevents It from carrying away all tbe sediment swept Into It by its numerous tributaries. This material chokes tbe stream and forces It to spread into many shallow and shifting channels, resembling tbe strands of a braid. A. good example of this ts Jefferson river.
