The Bear Wins.

Robert Nelson and James Neish,
says the Truckee Republican of June
18th, have located themselves as
ranchers in Squaw Valley, one of the
widest and most romantic localities
in this portion of the Sierra Nevadas.
Last week they met with bear adj
venture in which bruin came off the
best. 1t seems the men had their
cabin, which was made of logs, a bout
two-thirds finished. The logs for the
door were sawed out, but they had not
had time to put the door up. In the
cabin they had stored away about 200
pounds of provisions, mostly meats.
AS their dwelling was unfinished, they
slept nights under the sha'o of Il
pile tree forty or fifty yards distant.
On. morning last week Oh going to
their cabin to put on the finishing
touches, they found that voracious
grizzly had been there and made
clean sweep of all their grub. The
animal had left nothing of any value,
except a flask of whisky and bottle
of pepper. Hereafter Nelson and
Neish will stay in their cabin nights,
and keep a sharp watch for the reap
pearance of bruin. They have their
fortress loopholed, and propose to do
some shooting in case of another raid.
The fact that the grizzly did not mo-
lest the whisky proves the brute to
have been unacquainted with the en-
lightened influences of these modern
go-ahead times.

Fastest Train In America.

The fastest railroad train ever run

wick and Trenton is run at the rate of
mile minute. The train has been
