Making a Night Of 1t.

Five or six drummers sat in the smok-
ing saloon Of a sleeper telling stories
Y e their cigars. The cigars were
good and the stories funny. But yer
in the corner sat a little drummer who
hadn't told a story. He had been
skipped every time. This was finally
noticed. and they all pressed him for Il
contribution to the merriment.
Boys" he said, II never told a
story in my life. I can't remember
stories, and l couldn't tell one if l
could remember it. Besides, l think
we've had enough funny stories to-
night. At least, if 1 tell one at all,
there'll he nothing funny about it. 1t
isn't so much a story as a little Incl
dent of life-a little tragedy-that
came under my observation. The last
time l was in Chicago l went down on
State street with some friends. just out
of curiosity. We went into the lowest
phase of society. One of these places
l remember well. 1t was way down
low. Behind the bar was a villainous
looking fellow, and he dealt out that
kind of whisky that brings tears to your
eyes when you drink it. While we
were there a man came in who was
evidently going to wreck. He was
nearly drunk. He wore good clothes,
but they were soiled and worn. His
handsome face was smeared with dirt
and his splendid eyes were bloodshot.
He looked around at us and remarked:

time. Maxim a night Of it, y know.

good night for he went to bed to-

he lowered his voice and glanced
around at his listeners, Tin two min
utes there wasn't a dry eye in that sa-
loon."-Train Talk in Chicago Herald.

Turned the Rascal Out.

Major Edwards went to Washington,
and while it may not be certain that his
GRAND was to induce Grover to take a
hand in the Bismarck '.jack pot" the
Devils Lake INrER-OcEAN, which has
been holding four aces while the Major
bluffed on 3 bobtail flush, remarks:
"Mage arrived in Washington on a fiat
car from Fargo and sent his card to the
president, following the bearer of the
paste board right up to the Office door
of Mr.. Cleveland. The card being laid
before the president the latter said:
Edwards of Fargo! o, yes; this is the
fellow whose crooked ways the Devils
Lake INrER-OcEAN has been showing

Polar Bear.

It is no common event for q polar
bear to Prowl along the ice-tloes OF the
sea-coast. which is its favorite walk,
until it finally stumbles on an Eskimo
village; and. if the dogs see it or smell
it, it is very apt to be brought to bay
near by, and then killed 10y the native
hunters who have been alarmed by the
noise and cutlery. A fair fight on the
open ice with q large polar bear is some
what dangerous, for if severely wound
ed it may tear the hunter to pieces.
The Eskimo seldom wound any dan
gerous animal. for. being a very brave
people.-that is, personally brave
they generally go SO close that, unless
some accident with the firearms hap
pens. the animal, whether it is bear or
musk-ox, is usually killed at the first
shot.
l once found an old Eskimo hunter,
however, in my camp in North Hud-
sons bay whose hair and scalp had
been taken completely off by the bite
OF a wounded bear that he had endeav-
ored to kill; and Toolooah once fired
at a big bear with too hasty an aim,
hoping to save one of his dogs the bear
had under its paws. He only wounded
the huge animal, which charged him,
and was only killed by a lucky. shot
just as it was close upon the hunter.
TOolooah told me that he had seen
polar bears climb up places so steep
and perpendicular that tho natives
could not follow them without cutting
into the wall of ice inches wherein to
put their hands and feet. and even in
some instances, an ice-wall so high
that the hunters dared not attempt to
climb it on account of the danger OF
slipping and killing themselves. A
British explorer of the Arctic regions
says that he once climbed to the top of
an iceberg, and there found a big white
bear sleeping away, in quiet possession.
The bear, on discovering the party,
jumped over the perpendicular side OF
the ice-mountain, fifty-one feet, into
the sea and swan to the nearest land,
which was more than twenty miles
away.
The polar bears live on seal and wal
rus crawling stealthily up to the form
er on the ice-floes and catch them,
while of the walrus only the young are
thus caught, for an old walrus is twice
as big as bruin. Some Arctic explorers,
however, Captain Hall aud DR.. Rae
among Others, that the bears
sometimes surprise an old walrus by
climbing above him on a PERCEPTIONS
hill, or the walls of an iceberg, and
then taking stones Or huge pieces Of
ice in their forepaws and throwing
them with such force as to crack the
walrns' skull as he lies asleep or al
rest on the ice. Then the bears spring
down on the stunned walrus and finish
him.-Licut. Schwatka in st. Nichola,

LONDON, June 2.-Dispatches from
Bombay say that news has reached
there Of a disastrous earthquake in
Cashmere, India. The shocks began
Sunday, and have continued at inter-
walls of ten minutes ever since. 1t is
very serious at Seringur, the capital of
Cashmere. The barracks of several
hundred soldiers qusrtered there were
destroyed, collapsing so suddenly that
nearly half the men were imprisoned in
the debris. Fifty are known to have
been killed and 100 are more or less in
jured. A portion Of the city is demol-
ished, and very few of the remaining
buildings escaped injury, many having
large rents made in them. The total
number of killed and wounded is not
yet known, nor the full extent of the
damage, owing to the interruption of
the telegraph wires. 1t is feared that
the loss of life is very heavy, as the latest
information calls for help, saying that
hundreds of ANIMALS are killed and the
loss among the people is very great.
