another charge. then picked up the
guns and went to look for Simon and
Uncle John. The latter came walking
up with his butcher-knife in one hand
and his gun in the other.
"Where is SimOn9" he said; @is he
hurti"
al do not know, Uncl john" said l.,
"but don't suppose Il at he is hurt very
bad, for he did not run ike man that
was badly hurt"
said l.
"I lost my knife as l started to run, and
j stopped to hunt it."
THAT was pretty time to stop for an
old butcher knife, whun a grizzly was
killing your son."
We'll, | know" said he, that it was
wrong, but was excited and did not
know what was doing"
You know how to keep out Of danger,
it seems" said l.
While these few words were passed be
tween us, we were walking along in the
tracking Simon by the blood, but did not
tell Uncle John as much.
After going some seventy five or hun
down behind little bunch of sage brush,
bleeding profusely, with the flesh all
chewed off Of his left hand, with several
severe cuts in his arm, several very deep
and dangerous bites about the head, and
with one eye badly injured.
l tore Simon's shirt off and tied up his
wounds the best l could. Uncle John
took him by one arm and l by the
other, to steady him, and Off we went
for home, the horse and dog both hav-
ing left us at the commencement Of the
battle 1t was then sundown snd we
were four miles from home. Simon could
not walk more than half mile without
resting; still we all logged along and got
home that night. Simon got well in about
two weeks, but he never was the bear
hunter afterward that he was before,
notwithstanding that was his first battle.
He never would own tn at saved his life
when his father had forsaken him, yet he
owned up that l was no coward when
there was need of courage.
Uncle John and / went back the next
day and got the bears. The one that had
bitten Simon proved to be the one that
we had shot that morning. Both balls
had gone into his breast, side and side,
cutting a long bu,let-hole and passing
above the heart, striking the points Of the
lights and piercing the liver, making
perfect jelly of it. For all this the woolly
critter lived all that day. and came near
killing Simon at sundown.-MouHtain

NATURE THE GREAT TEACHER.
Mans Mechanical Devices Have Long
Ago Been Anticipated by Nature.

Ago Been ANTICIPATED by Nature.
Rev J. G. Wood, in his new book,
Natures Teachings" has discussed a
subiec. not before handled at length. Its
object is to show how mans implements
and mechanical devices have been antici-
pated in nature. He asserts that there
is no invention of man which is not an
ticipated, that all his mechanical devices
have been used in nature for countless
centuries. He claims that the great dis
coverers of the future will be those who
carefully study the natural world.
The burr stones of mills are a copy OF
molar teeth. The hOofs Of a horse are
made of parallel plates like carriage
spring. The finest file made by man is a
rough AFFAIR when compared with the
Dutch rush used by cainetmakers. The
jaws of the turtle and tortoise are natu-
raj scissors. Rodents have chiSel teeth,
and hippopOtami have adZe teeth, which
are constantly repaired as they are worn.
The carpenters plane is anticipated by
the jaws of bee. The woodpecker has q
powerful little hammer. The diving
bell only initiates the work of the water
spider. This insect, although as easily
drowned as any other, spends great
part of its life under water. Having con-
structed small cell under the water, it
clasps a bubble of air between its last
pair of legs and dives down to the en-
trance of its cell into which the bubble is
put A propOrtionate amount of water
is thus displaced, and when all Of it is eX-
PEELED the little animal takes up its abode
in this subaqueous retreat.
In laying its eggs on the water, the
gnat combines them in a mass shaped
somewhat like a lifeboat. 1t is impossi-
BILE To sink it without tearing it to pieces.
The iron mast of monarn ship is
strengthened by deep ribs running along
its interior. A porcupine quill is
strengthened by similar ribs. When
engineers found that hollow beams were
stronger than solid ones, they only dis
covered a principle which had been used
in nature for centuries before the crea-
ton of man. A wheat straw, if solid,
could not support heavy head. The
bones of the higher animals, if solid,
would have TO be great deal heavier to
bear the weight which they have to sup
port. The frame work of ship resembles
the skeleton of a herring, and ne who
would improve aerial navigation might
study the skeleton of bird with advan.
tage. PalisSy made a careful study of
the shells by the seaside, in order to learn
the best method of fortifying town.
The ship worm feeds on wood, and
gradually tunnels its way through any
submerged timber. 1t also lines its bur
row with hard, shslly coating. Brunei,
taking hint from this, was the first to
succeed in subaquatic tunneling The
Eddytsone lighthouse is built on the plan
of a tree trunk, and fastened to the rock
in a manner somewhat similar to the
way a tree is fastened to the soil. 1t is
supposed that the first idea of suspen.
sion bridge was suggested by the creep
ers of tropical forest.-Wilmington Col
legian.

me Stock Game on Tn. rail.

1t must strike a foreigner as curious, il
he ever gets into a smoking car on one
of the roads running into the populous
suburban towns and outlying settlements
of New York, TO note the provisions made
for card playing. On the New York and
New Haven there are little tables fixed
between the seats, and the latest conven.
ience noted was a patent register of the
games, which is let into the panel con-
venient to either players hand. Euchre

We have few more useful citizens than
Ross Mitchell, one of the largest individual
aroperty-holders in the city. OF late he has
had severe affection of the eyes, so that
he has had much difficulty in seeing. Now,
however, there is much hope that his all
m mt may be cured, as an operator in
Washington, who cured the Hon. Samuel
Shellabarger of a similar trouble, restoring his
sight fully, thinks he can perform the same
service for Mr.. Mitchell, and he and Mrs
Mitchell will leave for Washington next
week, and will remain until the Occulist has
had ample opportunity to test his ability and
skill. Anything which has a tendency to
disable such a man as Mr.. Mitchell, who
has so much TO do with the growth and
prosperity of the town, is public calamity.

recent commercial pressure is taken into
consideration, how much has been done.

Democratic Insult to co,ored Men.


The Hooking Sentinel, bowling Demo-
cratic paper, is out in brutal attack on the
black man, which proves that the Demo-
cratic party has lost none of its hatred for
the race This TRADE of abuse against the
colored race is called forth by the action OF
the Republican convention at Shawnee,
Perry county, nominating a colored man for
inirmary director. The Sentinel says that
the negro colony at Corning was established
for the purpose Of degrading white workers
in the mines AMI refers 10 the colored popu-
lation as the barbarian horden and speaks
with approval Of white men in Straitsville,
because "They would not tolerate the outrage
and the horde Of negroes were driven out"
when some colored citizens attempted to 10
cate in Straitsville to earn their daily bread,
and calls the attempt of colored men to labor
on an squslity with whites. Labor leprosy"
Here is an extract from the Sentinels long
editorial on the subject:
"The coloniIei barbarian is in the road He
sustains no churches. He builds or patron
tens as a leech upon the men OF mind and
muscles But the Republican party OF
Perry approves the negro colonization and
in nominating an imported negro to place
on the county ticket, say in act as intensely
as il written in words OF fire: You white
men must come down to the level Yet in
few days with sentiments like this, in their
hearts, the Democrats, headed by John Nc
Bride, will be endeavoring by honeyed
words, TO induce colored men TO vote the
Democratic tickst Out upon su hypocritss,
such sIsnierers OF the colored man whose
right to stand on an equality with his white
1rother, was gained and preserved to him
by the Republican party, which will ever
protect him from such brutal treatment as
the party responsible for the Sentinsl's insults
sould accord him, did it dare"

of really good poetry made by goot

standard of poetic excellence and to fl,
an absolute standard than any quantity
Of ingenious analysis, in the details O

The Utah commission reports that present
laws, with some notifications, will be eff
cient for the suppression OF pOlygamy. As
they are, they have had, at least, arestrain-
ing influence. The report closes as follows:
Here we may say that while We recognize the
obligation Of the government to protect the
personal property rights of the Mormon peo-
pie, and to deal with them As equals before the
law. yet il is equally the duty of the govern
ment to punish crime within its jurisdiction,
and religious liberty cannot be pleaded as a
bar TO punishment for criminal acts in viola
ton of the laws of the land, and of social
order. If present laws and the proposed con-
Stitutional amendments are not sufficient to
suppress the evil, more stringent enactments
must be adopted. and the result will be that,
at no distant day this relic OF Asiatic barbar-
ism. this blot on the fair fame Of America. will
be swept from the land.
