A Portland correspondent of the Boston
Post who signs himself ''Falstaff'' accuses
the PRESS of manipulating the returns from
this district so as to conceal the magnitude
Mr.. Reeds collapse. "Falsraff'' and the
ex-office holder who has haunted the Argus
office for some weeks are, we have no doubt,
one and the same person. Like most of the
charges he made during the campaign his
allegation that the PRESS has manipulated
the returns SO as 10 conceal anything is
false. The reason he could see no collapse
OF Mr.. Reed is because he was searching for
something which had no existence. Had he
looked for the collapse of his own anonymous
campaign against Mr.. Reed he would have
found that without much trouble. But to
that he is wilfully blind.

Tammany has voted to support the Demo-
cratic ticket. Since John Kelly who viz
tually controls the organization declared he
should vote for Cleveland an open revolt on
the part of Tammany Hall has not been
looked for. But the proceedings of the
meeting at which the resolutions of support
were adopted show plainly enough that
Tsmmany's support is going to be of very
cold description. Doubtless the braves will
with lew exceptions vote the ticket, be.
cause the discipline of the organization is of
martial character and men who disobey
orders are punished for their disobedience,
But the votes of the organization on election
day is all that Cleveland will get out of
Tammany. Secretly its influence is much
more likely to be thrown against him than
10 his favor. With Hubert o. Thompson,
who is at the head of a rival organ ization,
IN the field as Gov. Ceveland's confidential
campaign manager, Tamn any is not likely
to shout itself hDarse for the ticket.

A BEAR THAT BOLTED.
The Beast That Fights and Runs
Away May Live &c Fight
Another Day.
Helena Independent.

Helena Independent.
A man named Ed. Wilson was
brought into the Sisters hospital on
Tuesday from tramp in the timber
beyond GlOster to be treated for in,
juries received by falling from a tree
into which he had been chased by a
wounded bear The way it occurred
was this: He and an other man were
chopping wood in the timber west OF
Gloster. While so engaged Wilson
looked up and saw huge bear placid,
" contemplating them from a dis
lance of about fifty yards. The bear
was sitting upright, with its EARNS
APPARENTLY folded. and seemed much
interested 10 their manner of cutting
and splitting cord-wood as if it might
have some notion of going into the
business itself. When described the
bear was standing perfectly still,
showed no signs of hostility and was
simply and only an interested spectator.
The wise thing for the men to have
done under the circumstances wouli
have been to leave the bear alone.
So thought Wilson's companion, and
he said as much. But " iIson thought
differently. He had a Winchester
rifle, and, noticing that the bear bad
a white spot in the center of its breast
just the ri ght size for a nice mark, he
said he believed he wouli take shot
at it. The other advised him not TO
do l.. and became suddenly conscious
that he was wanted at camp. Wilson
looked at the bear again. 1t still sat
moionlesS. and the white mark on It's
breast looked so tempting that, with
out more ado, he raised his gun, aimed
and fired. But instead OF hitting the
white, which would have been a death
shot, the bullet struck the bear in the
shoulder. The wound did not cripple
the animal much, but served to sud-
denly eukindIe in its breast an eager
desire to eat wOodchOpper.
The next thing Wilson remembers
he aud his companion were doing the
great tree-climbing act, with the bear
within smelling distance of their heels.
Wilson, in his excitement, climbed
upon limb which was too weak TO
bear his weight. The limb broke aud
he fell. The distance TO the ground
was about thirty feet and he came
down bang on top of the bear. which,
on account of lis wound had been un-
able to climb the tree. The JOLT
which the bear received from the one
hundred and seventy pounds of fall
ing mortality was to it a new feature
in man-hunting and 1t startled the
animal go that it did not wait for
further particulars, but fled in great
alarm and soon disappeared in the
woods.

at gentleness. will never despise the

again"
His swinging comrade laughed a
hooking laugh.
'Similia similibus cure ranter," she
said-"it is the mild power subdues. +"
A smothered sob, ending in a pitiful
wall, was the only reply, and the
strong tree bowed itself to hear the
little base bawl.

CURIOUS CRONICLES.
THE VOLCANOES OF HAWAII.

The Sandwich Islands boast of two
natural wonders. the largest extinct
and the largest active volcano In the
world. The former is located on the
Island of Mani, the summit being
nearly IL 900 feet above the level OF
the sea. and the crater over fOrty-eight
miles in circumference. One can
look down into the crater 1000 feet,
the sides now terraced and covered
with sandalwood, giant, ferns and a
wonderful prOfusion of tropical flowers
and shrubs. The active volcano is
situated in the Island of Hawaii. The
crater is situated on a spur of Mauna
LA, 1000 feet above sea level. The
crater is not cone, but a great pit on
level bench, nine miles in circum-
ference. You 60 down, down over
this almost perpendicular wall 500
feet, and stand on the floor of the
crater. This is the place of eternal
burnings, the house of everlasting fire
of Hawaiian mythology. The area
at the bottom of the crater is not q
liquid mass, but for miles and miles all
around there spreads a scene of IN
earthly grandeur. Five or six lakes
of fire lie to left aud right; the floor
beneath is so hot one can scarcely
walk over it; lava oOzes up through
the assures. Huge cones twenty or
thirty feet high, made by the bubbles
of lava, rise through the seams and
are cooled by the air.
