Power of a GroMIng Tree.

Walton Hall had at one time its own
corn mill, and when that inconvenient
necessity no longer existed, the mill
stone was laid by in an orchard and for
gotten. The diameter of this circular
stone measured five feet and a half,
while its depth averaged seven inches
throughout; its central hole had a di-
ameter of eleven inches. BY mere acci-
dent some bird or squirrel had dropped
the fruit of the filbert tree through this
hole on to the earth, and in 1912 the
Seeding was seen rising up through the
unwonted channel. AS its trunk grad
ually grew through this aperture and
increased, its power to raise the pom
drous mass ofstone was speculated upon
by many. Would the fiibert tree die in
the attemptP Would it burst the mill
stoneP Or would it lift itp In the end
the little filbert tree lifted the milestone.
and by 1868 wore it like a crinoline
about its trunk, and Mr. Waterton used
to sit upon it under the branching
shades.

Four Hunting Incidents.

The Santa Barbara (Cal.) Independent
records stirring encounter that took
place on the Sd inst. in one of the
rocky Businesses of the coast range. A
certain California lion had been making
himself obnoxious to the stook-raisers
Just over the line of settlement, and
Huley Norris, who had lost several hun
dred dollars worth of sheep, got up n
grand hunt foT the troublesome lions
benefit. With a large number of dogs
the party took up the trail early in the
morning, and followed IL up the noun
tains until the lion was found. There
were several sharp fights between the
lion and the dogs, several of the latter
being killed, and it was only by taking
big risk that Norris at last advanced
upon and at the distance of a few PAGES
sent fatal bullet into the beasts head.
They hunted geese with oxen and artil-
lery in the good old days of 40, in Yuba
county, Cal. The Marysville appeal
says: "A curious method of goose
stalking was adopted by the hunters, an
OK ut once serving MS a covert and means
of approach. A flock having been dis
covered at considerable distance, the OK
would be started in their direction, be-
ing allowed to feed as he went along,
thus disarming the suspicion ofthe wary
fowl. AS soon as the hunter got within
shot he discharged both barrels-one Mt
the geese on the ground and the other
as they arose, bagging from thirty to
sixty geese He either rested the gun
ON the ox's back, or allowed him to pass
on, and then raked them with his small
cannon. Quite number of fortunes
were made in this manner"
Harry Yount returned to Cheyenne,
Wyoming, one day recently, from a
hunting tour near the Laramie peak of
two or three weeks duration, and among
the other evidences ofhis successful trip
he brought back the skin of a large
" silver tipped grizzly bear. The ami
NAL was one of the largest of its species,
and dangerous antagonist had the ball
from trusty rifle missed its mark. In
relating the incident of the killing to the
Cheyenne Leader, Harry said that he
went within few yards of the beast,
which laid in a crouching position, be-
fore discovering it, and he knew full
well his mortal danger should his shot
fall short of its intended mission; but
he had the utmost confidence in his rifle
and blazed away, killing the animal in
stantly
A party of gentlemen from Hawkins
vile, Ca, while out fox hunting few
days ago. struck the trail OF a catamount
and finally brought the animal to bay.
After long and bloody fight, in which
eleven dogs took part, and out OF which
most of them came mangled, bleeding
and crippled, the ferocious animal was
killed. 1t was few inches over three
feet in full length, very tall and had an
immense head, armed with long sharp
teeth.

A young man named Oliver, in the
employ of James Webster, Esq, of
Ocono, who is doing an extensive lum-
ber business on the waters of Aroostook
county, had notable experience the
other day with huge black bear.
Oliver, who is twenty-five years of age,
and had never before seen n bear, was
passing through the woods, when he
came to n large lee, in the trunk of
which there was large hole. Think
ing it might be the den of some animal,
he thrust his axe into the hole, and was
surprised when 1t struck some soft sub
stance. He immediately cut n long pole
and repeated the experiment when,
without any dallying, n huge black
head appeared at the outer edge of the
hole. 1t proved to be that of a, bear of
enormous size. AS bruin poked out his
head and the fore part ofhis body young
Oliver struck him clip with his axe,
taking off three of his toe nails. This
surgical operation so enraged the bear
that he made an angry plunge at Oliver
and nearly succeeded in getting him
with his axe into the den. The young
man had by this time concluded that it
was either himself or the bear, SO he
doffed his coat and mittens. and bracing
himself struck the old fellow terrible
blow on the head. This seemed only to
enrage him the more, and as his eyes
flashed fire his ears stood erect and his
breast protruded and he made another
dash at his intended victim. But young
Oliver was prepared for him, and dealt
him such n blow as split open his head
from the base of the brain TO a point
even with his nose. This finished the
bear, who snorted few times and rolled
dead at the feet of Oliver. He was a
black bear, apparently what is known as
an "old ranger" measured nine feet
from the tip of his nose to the hind
paws, and weighed over 450 pounds.
After he had killed the monster, young
Oliver became frightened, and standing
there gazing upon his carcass he says he
could feel his own hair rise upon
end.-Portldnd Press.

Some Things the Chinese Eat.

The sharks fin is delicacy which is
rarely omitted from the menu at a
Chinese feast. 1t is one of the great
classic dishes" forming the pieces de
resistance of an official banquet, and is
eaten either in the form of joint, gar
nished with crabs, or served up in
small pieces in cups placed before each
guest. The consumption of rats, though
it seems to be somewhat on the decline,
is the cause of a very important traffic
in the principal towns of certain dis
tricts, and especially in street in Can
ton called g-Loung-Kai. Here these
animals may be seen in enormous multi
titudes hanging up in the shop windows
among chickens and ducks and geese.
They are for the most part dried and
salted, and when in that state are es.

whose hair is getting thin.
Besides the dishes peculiar to the
Celestials alone, there are variety of
differences in their mode of cooking and
eating foods nknOwn to our cuisine.
Hams, for instance, are kept for year,
or even two years, buried in heaps of
sawdust, which impart to them a taste
of wood much appreciated by the gour-
NETS. Broad beans are termented, and,
after being mixed With salt, form a very
favorite sauce eaten with all sorts of
viands. Finally, the habit of eating
rotten eggs" which sounds so strange
to European ears, is explained by show
ing that the so-called rotten egg is only
