the scene with posse the mob fired on
him. The fire was returned, and over q
hundred rounds exchanged without any
harm being done. Finally the Sheriff
forced the mob into the mountains, where
they separated, going in every direction,
one party taking Symmes over the west

it is supposed he was hanged and
buried. Citizens have been searching
all day for the dead body Of the pris-

men are employed there. The exact de-
ails Of the route have not yet been de-

pensive on account Of the heavy engi-
neering difficulties. The Soledad extern
sion will reach San Miguel on the 25th
instant. and the work will be pushed on
to reach Psso Robles as soon as possible.
This route will pay working expenses as
soon as opened. Between Paso Robles
and Newhall there lies o stretch Of

road would have to pass either through

flash of lightning passed in front of my
eyes. 1t was the brightest thing l ever

Game in Maine.

A Boston Herald correspondent, writing
about the dangers incurred by hunters in
Maine, says: Oftentimes they are at
tackled by the moose or caribou, which,
with deer, were never plentier in Maine
forests than they are now. Of late years
great effort has been made to restock
Maine forests with this noble game, which
has been successful Under the game
laws deer, moose and caribou are pro.
tected for nine months in the year. Com
plants against the laws are frequently
made from the fact that in some sections,
deer have become troublesome to farm
crops, while the moose have become dan.
gerous to life. An Aroostook paper re.
lates the story of two men who were
treed by moose, and, had they killed
him, would have laid themselves liable
to heavy fine All kinds of schemes are
devised for the evasion of the laws. but
the game wardens are generally so vigi.
liant that oftentimes cases arise where one
is deprived of eating venison cut from an
animal legally killed. With the abund.
ance of game, it is not improbable that
the laws may be modified so that they
will be less harsh in their workings, but
equally etficacious in their protective fea,
lures.

Mnnknr Frlenlshin-

Albert Messncr, captain of Bremen
East -lndiaman, vouches for an incident
which, says DIR. Oswald, seems to prove
that the friendships of animals even OF
different species, can assume the form of
uncomfortable passions. In Singapore
the captain had bought a fine gibbon ape,
which seemed rather slow in getting
over its shyness, aud would squeal at the
mere touch of a human hand, but soon
became the fast friend Of a good-natured
young Newfoundlander. They would
roll and romp together on the deck, run
races along the bulwarks, and often keep
IN the same corner, unless the roughnlss
of the weather made it necessary to
transfer the gibbons couch to the cabin.
Near Sumbawa the schooner encountered
a violent gale, which played havoc
with a portion of the rigging.
and in the midst of the confusion,
Omar the Newfoundlander, was Knocked
overheard by a swinging spar. The ship
was scudding along at twenty-knot
rate, and it would have been worse than
useless to lower a boat, but the heart of
every man on board was wrung when
they heard through the night and dark
ness the bowling appeal of their poor dog,
who was making desperate efforts to
overtake the fast receding chance of sal
vation. While all hands were Juggling
away at the reetng ropes several sailors
noticed the gibbon dashing in wild ex-
citement about the deck, and uttering
yells that sounded like answers to the
cries OF his drowning friend At last the
captain himself heard those wells from
fhc stern of the shin and hostan;ne.
back, thought that he heard a splash in
the water, but the darkness of the night
prevented him from recognizing the dim
object seeming to toss about in the wake
of the schooner. As soon as the storm
abated they searched aud halloed all over
the ship, but only the howling of an old
tom-cat answered their calls. The glib
bon had joined his friend.
