An Example OF Pure Gptl,

Journal: Sam Walhng. who is now
working at Elkhorn, beats the record
for pure unadulterated grit. Twenty
miles this side of Wardner six years ago
he located gold lead, and during that
time he run 6a2 feet OF a cross-cut and
sunk shaft fifty feet deep and made an
uprise 800 feet from the mouth of the
tunnel for air. One hundred and
twenty feet of this work he has per-
formed entirely alone, and has not OBJ
tanned dollar from anyone that he did
not earn. He has worked for wages
about two months Of each year and with
the result of that much labor Aae sls;..
tained himself while he unfkAd ON the
shaft the otAsh teA months. A state

such circumstances must make some
rapid strides in the near future. There
are whole lots Of such men in Montana
and they are worth their weight in gold

Walling has fifty feet further 10 run to

A GOOD BEAR STORY.

Unsatisfactory Ending.
Many years ago New Hampshire boy
found very young bear cub near Lake
Winnipiseogee, and carried 1t home with
him. 1t was fed and brought up about the
house OF the boys father, and became -
tame as dog, says the New York Ledger.
Every day its youthful captor had TO go 10
school at some distance, and by degrees
the bear became his daily companion. Az
nrst the other scholars were shy Of the
creatures acquaintance, but ere long 1t be-
came their regular playfellow, and they de-
lighted in sharing with it the little store OF
provisions which they brought for their
days sustenance in small bags After two
years OF civilization, however, the bear wan.
dered to the woods, and did not return.
Search was made for him, but in vain. =.
Four succeeding years passed away, and
In the interval changes had occurred about
the school alluded to. An old dame had
succeeded to the ancient master, and new
generation OF pupils had taken the place Of
the former ones One very cold winter
day, while the school-mistress was busy
with her humble lessons, q boy chanced to
leave the door half open on his re-entrauce,
and suddenly a large bear walked in. The
CONSERVATION Of the old lady and her boys
and girls was unspeakable. Both school
mistress and pupils would fain have been
abroad" but the bear was in the path, ard
all that could be done was to fly as far of
as possible, and hide behind the benches.
But the bear troubled nobody. He walked
quietly up to the fireplace and warmed
himself, exhibiting much satisfaction in his
eountenance during the process. He re-
mained thus about q quarter of an hour.
and then walked up to the wall where the
provender bags and baskets of the pupils
were suspended. Standing on his hind feet
he then took hold Of these successively, put
his paws into them and made free with the
bread, fruit and other eatables therein con-
talned> He next tried the school. mistress
desk, where some little provisions usually
We're, but finding it firmly shut, he went
utes' stay before it he walked out by the
way he came.
AS soon as the school-mistress and her
pupils had courage to move, the alarm was
given to the neighbors. Several young
men Immediately started after the bear.
and as its track was perfectly visible in tho
snow, they soon came up with it and killed
it. Then it was that, by certain marks upon
its skin, some of its pursuers recognised in
the poor bear no enemy, but an old friend of
their own recent school days. Great regret
was felt for the death of the creature. It
was like killing human friend rather than
a wild animal.

ALL KINDS OF GHOSTS.
Monsters and Guardians Invented by Va
riOuS Races Of Men,

monsters ana Guardians Invented by Wa
riOus Races of Men.
/ have been In almost every country in
the world, says a writer in the New York
Mail and Express, and everywhere have
found people who have seen and believe ia
ghosts. In western countries ghosts arc
generally harmless, but in Asia and Afric.
they are of malignant and vicious type
Tho dread of ghosts is common to all aho-
riginal races OF India and China. and the
only means employed to oppose their rsnco1-
and mischievous dispositions is 10 build
shrines for them and to make them offer
lngs. Any severe illness, any epidemic dis
ease, as smallpox, cholera, ETC., is attrib-
uted to the malignancy Of certain Of these.
spirits, who must be propitiated accord
ingly. In India the man tiger is, perhaps.
the most dreaded of all these demon ghosts.
for when tiger has killed a man the tiger
is considered safe from harm, as the spirit
OF the man rides upon his head and guide.
him clear Of danger. Accordingly it is be-
lieved that the only sure mode OF destroy
ing tiger who has killed many people is to
begin by making offerings to the spirits Of
his victim, thereby depriving HIM Of their
valuable services. In China the ghosts most
propltiated are of those who have met

design or by accident. Even women who
die in child-bed or wretches whoa hanged
for their crimes are believed to have the
same power Of causing evil TO the living as
those who have been killed by any other
violent causes, including poison, disease,
lightning, etc. All tkese deifed spirits
are often distinguished by some term de-
noting the manner of their death. Thus
the ''tiger ghost" is the ghost Of . man
killed by q tiger; the "snake ghost" the
ghost OF person who was killed by q
snake. In Africa the ''waddy" and slight
ming" ghosts are the most common, but
the most dreaded spirit is.the Siroccu ghost.
which is reputed by the natives an implacs-
BILE spirit. Most of the deceased persons
whose spirits are now worshiped were the
ancestors of some OF the aboriRines.
The ceremonies observed in propiti a&inr
the ghosts consist mainly of the offerings
Of fowls, pigs, goats, as well as Of flowers
and fruits, Of the recitation and singing OF
certain prayers and charms before the dif-
ferent shrines. These charms or PRAYER,
are addressed to the deided ghosts of the
dead for the purpose Of compelling the
spirits to oesisc from doing harm or to sp-
pear and receive the orders Of the per
formers. After two or three successive
performances the ghost is understood to be
placated.
