An Exciting Adventure.

During the great snowStorm recently
two sturdy miners started to ascend to
one of our neighboring mountains, with
the intention of working Il claim that
lay near its crest. They made the trip
on Norwegian sn0W-shoes, on which
they worked their way up narrow
gulch leading to the property. AS they
journeyed on, one of them got to be
some two hundred yards in advance of
the other, and it was while this distance
separated them that the leader by an I'M
happy step overturned q top-heavy mass
Of snow, and started dreadful slide.
He seized hold of a convenient tree, and
called to his companion to ''Look Out!'
The tree was small and bent over under
the weight of the moving snow. He let
90 and started with the snow. The long
shoes by this time were firmly anchored
in the moving mass, and hcwas hurried
along with no power to stop himself by
Selling the trees which he passed.
Fortunately he was on the tail end of
the avalanche. and thus rode it in safe
ty, with nothing coming behind to COW
er him up.
When he found that he had thus to
be an unwilling passenger upon the ter
rible train he looked ahead to see what
had become of his partner The latter,
seeing that there was no escape on
either side, turned heels to the roaring
mass and started on Gfe-and-death
run right down the gulch. Then fol-
lowed wild and thrilling chase. The
man who was anchored on top of the
snow yelled at the man in front to run,
while he who was pursued strained every
muscle to keep out. of the jaws of the
death that was close at his heels. The
sight would have been amusing if it had
not been Of such Il serious nature. The
race was kept up for more than mile,
and during the entire distance the fell
low who was on top kept yelling: run,
low who was running held his hat
poised four inches from his head, while
he headed for the valley. Often the
rolling snow struck the heels of his
shoes. but it did not quite get him.
More quickly than it takes to tell it the
hunted man dashed out into the valley,
and what he thought was safety. The
valley, however, was more dangerous
than the mountain, us an unseen gulch
crossed it, into which the hunted man
fell Providence, though was kind to
him, for the slide had spent its force,
and the snow piled up on the bank over
which he had fallen.
When the two men were able to look
around one was lying at the bottom of
the gulch, while the other was seated
upon the crest of the snow-bank that
overlooked its edge. - aspen (CoI.)

Care OF Animals in Winter.

The American Humane Association
offers the following suggestions relative
to fowls, horses and cattle to persons
having these in charge, in the northern
latitudes, during the winter months:
Do not compel domestic fowls to roost
in trees. Aside from danger of being
captured by owls and other enemies, the
swaying of the branches upon which
they are sitting will prevent them from
getting rest; while in the severely cold
weather, thus exposed, feet and combs
are frozen and the bird is so benumbed
as to make it impossible for it to be of
much profit ON the farm. Securely
sheltered from wind and storm, and al
lowed to sit on broad roost, feet are
thus kept warm, refreshing rest is OBJ
tanned, and the fowl is much stronger,
healthier, and more profitable to its
owner.
Do not clip horses during the winter
months With the same propriety we
might cut the hair from a dog or shear
sheep at this season of the year. The
argument in behalf of the practice IS
that the horse in porspiration will dry
more quickly if the hair is short If the
animal is thoroughly blanketed and
kept in q sheltered or warm place, after
being driven, no danger results from
perspiration, whatever the length Of hair;
while the horse that has been deprived
of it's coat in the winter time suffers per-
petually while being exposed to the
cold.
1t is cruelty inflicted upon beautiful
carriage horses for the purpose of style.
Blessed is the ordinary work-horse, in
the winter time, for, however much it
may perspire, it is allowed to carry its
full growth of hair during the cold
weather.
Do not leave cattle to stand shivering,
while extromities often freeze, in the
snowstorms and severe winds of winter,
when little time would suffice to con-
struct of boards, rails or poles support
upon and around which may be placed
hay, straw or weeds, thus making shell
ter that may comfortably protect them
Cattle kept in fairly warm condition
throughout the winter will, as mixers,
give large and better yield of milk,
and as beeves will take on flesh much
more rapidly than if exposed to incle-
ment weather.
Aside from a question of humanity,
theemore attention and care that is be-
slowed upon animals, with view to
their comfort, the more will they be of
service and source of profit to their own

The totals presented during several weeks
past naturally suggests an attempt to OBJ
tain an approximation as to the loss result
ing. This loss can at best only be approx
mated. In addition to absolute losses OF
wages to striking employees during the con-
tinuance of the strikes, there remain, of
course, indirect losses due to delayed or
cancelled contracts for delivery of merchan-
disc, of products or for the construction of
buildings The building industry has sus
tanned indirectly in this way the severest
blow of any, due to the unwillingness of
contractors to take contracts for fear of es-
Inmates of cost being disturbed by renewed
labor troubles. The losses sustained through
deferred or Cancelled building contracts have
been moro thoroughly reported than those
in any other line at the cities where strikes
