at home entirely to the exercises. The pieces
which he plays he has learned almost entire
ly himself, and his conception of them is
wholly his own. The principal numbers in
his repertoire are one of DeBeriot's concert
pieces, Wienawski's '.Legende' and ma
zourkas, the ''Elegie" of Ernst, and the
Chopin nocturnes arranged for violin. One
of these last he spoke of rs his favorite. Fam
cy boy years old with favorite Chopin
nocturne,
1t is not wholly in this way that young Fox
shows his musical gifts. His ear is so accur-
ate that he can tell instantly and so rapidly
that il is difficult TO follow him, the notes in
any chord or discord that may be played, as
many notes being taken in as the hand can
grasp, He can also sing any note asked for
striking in succession thu most difficult inter-
walls with perfect accuracy. Blind Tom is n
clumsy bungler in these tests in comparison
with this boy.
Perhaps the fact that more than any other
argues his genius is his power of extemporiz-
alton. He is still so small as to be unable to
reach the pedals of the piano. and is a mere
pigmy when seated at the grand piano. Yet
on Saturday he extemporized in manner that
many an old player has never been able to
accomplish, showing, as his little hands that
can scarcely reach an octave, fairly whirled
over the keys, wealth of Imagination and an
i,born sense of harmonic modulation and res
olutions Of rhythm, form and phrasing that
were simply astounding. This he continued
for twenty minutes, and only ceased on
count of the lateness of the hour The most
remarkable part of this is. that he has never
taken lessons on the piano and his extempor-
izing is simply gift of nature in the use Of
which he has had no guidance. His father
informs us that the boy at home frequently
plays in this manner for hours often in COM
pany with Younger brother, who seems to
be equally gifted.
We hardly need say how the performances
of this wonderful boy were received To de-
scribe the scene as an ovation would hardly
be an exaygeration. Both ladies and gentle
men were aroused to the highest pitch of en-
thusiasm. and yet were hardly able to ex-
press their delight, unusual was the sensa-
ton produced. 1t is not every dav that one
sees true genius in any field Of art Young
Fox was accompanied by his father. The boy
is still too Young to place under strict train
ing anywhere, but will be given every advan-
tage as soon as his age permits He has al
ready excited the interest Of many prominent
musicians. among them Remenyi and Mr.
Pease, and we shall doubtless hear great
things of him at some future day.-Bnfaio

last week the old man went down to visit

were fortunate enough to track a grizzly to
his lair among some of the boulders in the

reused up and sent forth growi Of defiance
which shook the trees.
$50 in there and kill 'im,'' said the old
man excitedly.
The son held back, further acquaintance
with the bear seeming in some respects unde-
sirable.

From the Amador (Cal.) Dispatch.
Upon the highest celestial authority there
is at the present time habiting the Moke-
lumne river only few miles from this place
a short distance above the Big Bar Bridge,
between jackson and Mokelumne Hall. a
water monster that has spread CONSERVATION
and terror among our entire Chinese popua-
ton. They assert that one day this week a
number of them were on the river just be-
low the old Boston mill site, when they saw
what they supposed to be a large Ash near
the top of the water, and one Of the party
made a leap into the river to capture the
prize. But no sooner had he struck the
water than the monster turned upon its
would-be captor and instantly drew him un-
der, from whence he had not arisen at last
accounts. The monster is said to have teeth
like dog, and to have powerful strength, as
the man was nothing in his grasp. The
Cinnamon who Witnessed the tragical fate of
their countryman concluded that the thing
was the devil. and fed for their lives 1t is
also claimed that another Cinnamon lost his
life in about the same manner near this place
several years ago, and it is thought this 10 the
same monster returned, If, indeed, he has not
inhabited the Mokelumne ever since While
we are not prepared to vouch for the truth of
this story, yet it is evident that something
has occurred or been seen on the river to ex-
cite our Chinese denizens and put them i'll
