Hunting a Mighty EIk.

-
 A few weeks ago Jack Gaylord was on 8 hunt in the Wind River mountains, among the foothills of which his ranch is situated. From a closs-grown pine thicket one morning there leapsd the largest elk he had ever seen. As the huge animal paused a moment to 'sniff the tainted gale, ,"the hunters re ady rife cracked. The elk was evidently hit, but only slightly, and away he went, crashing through the brush and over tn @ loose shingle of the mountain side, and now began the chase. The dogs were put upon the track, their opening music. The royal elk headed straight for the brakes of the Sable noun tain, a huge peak, one of the loftiest of the range, that rose some five miles distant. On the summit of this mountain rises crest of rocks that, at distance, exactly resembles huge table. Though he had evidently select ed the Table Peak as his final place of re- fuge, the cunning quarry doubled again and again on his pursuers.
 But the hounds were not to be shaken oH, and at the end of two hours run the elk found himself at the foot of the peak, with the hunter and hound close on his launches The hunted animal at once began the steep ascent, and tried hard to shake off his pur- suffers amid the tangled thickets that line the mountain side. Leaving his blown pony at the base of the peak, the hunter followed the chase on foot. Halfway up the noun tain the elk was sighted The clamer of the dogs was redoubled. The hounds were now close upon the noble game, and under the giant shadow of the table it turned at bay. As the foremost of the dogs emerged from the last copse and sprang full at the throat, the branching antlers were suddenly lower ed, the keen tines pierced from side to side, and all that was left of the stauneh hound was thrown high in air, and fell far down the steep incline. Nothing daunted, the re- maining hound, too made it's fierce spring and shared the fate of it's comrade. The bushes parted, and the hunter stepped into the open battle ground, where had just per ished his two gallant hounds With a hoarse below the animal rushed at him. The hun ter fired, and the next instant was whirled aloft on the broad antlers. His stout buck skin hunting shirt turned aside the sharp prongs, but they had become fastened in the garment, and Gaylord bid fair to be thrash ed to death against the rocky ground. As for second time the elk dashed him to earth he managed to catch hold of a stout bush and kept his grasp long enough to en- able him, with his other hand, to draw his revolver from his belt and send ball crash ing through the brain of his savage foe.

The Market Somewhat Irregular, Hut Prices Generally Rule Slightly Afgh- ar at inc Close.

New York, Feb 13. 1886. This mornings stock market notably lop- sided. At least two-thirds of the dealings confined to the coal carriers which par excel lence the attraction of the day, and were bought, sold and manipulated to the Queens taste. The net gains secured by the four coal stocks were 1ss for Lackawanna, 1zs for Delaware and Hudson 24 for Jersey Central and 11k for Reading. As for the of the list, it of very motley charac- ter very much neglected and altogether of . crazy quilt sort of appearance Nevertheless it's general fractions than lost them. Prominent in the im- provsment were Lake Shore. Erie, Pacific Mail, Northern Pacific preferred, Louisville and Nash vile and Union Pacific Fort Worth showed e1- ceptional weakness upon reported decrease in it's December earnings. The remarkable dealings of the day, however were in railroad bonds. Nothing like the present inquiry for this description of prop erty has ever been the Stock Exchange. The tirst-class, gilt-edged mortgages have disap- peared almost entirely from the market, else are held so high as to afford but slim returns upon the investment. Consequently the junior issues are being sought after with advancing prices for all classes, good, bad and indifferent. Sales at the Board amounted to 445,6 ,699 shares against 406 s6S yesterday and 35s,445 on Thursday.

The Latest snebbery.

lNeW Iork Letter Tn the Boston Globe.
 What do you think of the fact that many ladies have objected to living west of Cen tral Park because their visiting cards would have to bear numbers 300 to 500 West such and-sueh a street, which would indicate that they lived outside of the fashionable dis trict. Isn't it too absurd for anything? The fact is that the first house from the Park on the side street is numbered 300. A petition signed by the owners of more than three thousand lots and three hundred houses will in few days be presented to the Board of Aldermen asking for readjustment of the numbers, so that the houses adjacent to the Park may be numbered 1 and and so on as on the Fifth avenue side. Among the sign CTS are John Jacob Astor, grandson of the miser; Frederick H. Cossitt, Amos R. Enc, a nice old party, but the last to put on airs one would have thought; H. H. Cammann, Francis w. Jencks, Charles F. Hoffman, jr.. William J. Merritt, Cornelius w. Lyster, c. L. Westcott expressman; Isaias Meyer, George Bliss, J. J. Soaring, Jacob Hays, Henry Morgenthau and D. Willis James. Such a set of snobs as this petition would in dicate it is difficult 10 believe could afford to breathe common air, but they do.

Why Jews Live So Long.

The New England Medical Monthly com ments very favorably on the proverbial long and healthful lives of the Jews. Dr. Picard holds that this superiority is due to their stringent health laws. The Mosaic, like the older Egyptian code, is very stringent re- garding the eating of flesh and other articles of food. Of the animals examined, . large proportion are always condemed unfit for food. People who eat meat indiscriminately are very prone to disorders of the blood and of the kidneys, for me't is composed of nj trogen, which the kidneys have to remove from the blood, and of course they cannot do this successfully except by the aid of War unless it is temperately partaken of and only the best meat is used. Jews also use slco- holic liquors very sparingly and. thus keep up good digestion, and then again they are a holiday-loving and Sabbath observing class. -HousekeeDer

Mr. Silas Hurd of Coram, Conn.,, died on Saturday morning of gangrene of the foot. He lived with his brother Seth for more than forty years. He was ninety years old, and the affection between the bachelor brothers was very remarkable. They hardly ever left home except to buy provisions. When they appeared in the streets of Bir- mingham or Ansonia the old men were all ways recognized by their ancient white bell crowned hats of the fashion of 1926. Silas Hurd was in the war of 1872 and drew a pension. He died in the house in which he was born and where had he always lived. He was a staunch Democrat in politics. It is believed that Seth, his brother, will not long survive him.

The Old-FashIoned A1r-'Tight Stove.
 [Erom the LeMiStoMa (Nel Journal

From the Lewistown Ce) JournaIl
 A Wilton veteran tells this story: My l health got run down, I failed in trade, and I thought I would go to farming. I bought
 me a piece of land in Aroostoek, built my self cabin, and set to work clearing it.
 This wss 40 years ago. It was in the fall didn't have time to build much of house,
 so just clapped shingles over the cracks.
 It was rather cold for us-my wife and me.
 We didn't sleep very comfortable nights. A
 friend told us to get an air-tight stove, put
 big junk of wood in when we went to bed,
 and the coals would keep all night and warm the cabin. Those round sheet iron, air-tight stoves had just come into fashion then. got me one and set her up. A short time before I turned in I put in & heavy junk of beech wood that I'd sawed right off a log. We turned in early and be- gan to talk over our prospects in our new life. What & grand thing that air-tight stove is for us, Mary Ellen,' says I. Yes, says she, but ain't it getting a little too warm for comfort? told her I didn't know but it was, and so turned down one quilt Before we got to sleep we had to turn down another quilt. It was cold night, but that new air-tight seemed to heat up tremendous ly T never such heater Jerry,' said Mary Ellen. Neither did r. says l. In the night woke up and it was 30 warm that turned down another quilt and left nothing but sheet over us. We'll in the morning l got up and went to the stove to stir up the coals and put on some more wood. Goals! Bless ye, there wasn't 8 spark in the stove! That big beech junk wasn't even charred.
 There hadn't been enough fire in that stove
 all night to tech off my pipe with. The beech
 log was too soggy to warm up, but that

 the business just as we'll"
