An Indian known as g Peavine Tom =.
had hand-to-hand encounter with alot,
OF bears last week, on the mountain

shot one, killing it, when another at
tackled him, His. only dependence was
.inahisp buteher-knife, and with this he
managed eo'kill the second one. About
this. time another attacked him and the
conflict must have been fearful. Part of

head, his face badly lacerated and his
arm. side and one thigh fairly ..seaten
up" No bones were broken, however,
and he managed to stagger and crawl
to the road, where he was found and
taken to Bucks ranch. Mr.. Wagner

ORIENTAL POEMS-FROM SAADI

ALEssON OF SUBMISSION.
A pilgrim bound to Mecca quite away his san
dals wore,
And on the deserts blistering his feet grew
very sore ,
"To let me suffer thus, great Allah is not kind
nor just,
While in his service l confront the painful
heat and dust"
He murmured in complaining tone, and IN
this temper came
To where around the Caaba pilgrims knelt of
every name, =.
bosom beat
\ pilgrim who not only wanted shoes but also
feet.
