few miles east of town, in search of his
ponies, and but for his nerve and pres
ence of mind would have lost his life
John Webster went with him to the
mountain, but saw nothing of the ponies
As they were about to return a low
growl, coming from a clump of jack
pines, caused their hearts to stop beating
and their hats to raise. Quickly glanc-
ing down the hill, Jess saw the head of a
huge mountain lion protruding from the
thicket Quick as thought, he drew his
revolver, adouble-action Colts. and fired
The lion sprang several feet in the air
and fell dead. AT this moment another
came tearing through the brush, and Jess
again fired, striking it in the shoulder;
the lion gave another spring, and Jess
fired again, striking it in the throat and
killing it. He then looked for his tender
foot, Webster, and saw him about a
quarter of mile away, wallowing up to
his neck in a snowdrift
The larger lion measured nine feet
from tip to tip, and is a beautiful speci-
men. The smaller one measured but
seven feet, and was heavy with young.
Jess has lost confidence in tenderfeet,
and Webster will return East.

Sand that Sings in the Wind.

San Francisco Call
About twenty miles south of Saltwater
Churchill county, on the Sand Springs
flat, at the foot of the mountain, there is
a heap of sand about 100 feet high and
nearly a mile across, which sings III the
wind and is constantly changing. 1t is
thrown by the wind, which there has a
circular motion, into vast round wall
with a hollow in the centre half mile
across, which goes two-thirds of the way
to the bottom. 1t is steep and hard to
climb to the top, and on the inside is
even more steep, so steep that no one has
ever dared to go down for fear that the
loose sand would slide down and bury
them up. There are similar dunes on
the Sandwich islands, on the Hebrides,
and on the Atlantic coast.
