Jealous of His Donkey

Although jealousy is the most un-
reasonable OF passions, few persons
fear the rivalry of creatures far be-
meath them in the scale of being. II
would be possible, one would think.
to be jealous of man, but not of a
donkey. Mr.. I. A. Trollope writes:
we took one morning a little excur-
sion to Tusculum, on which my wife
rode a donkey belonging to a very
competent guide. This man knew
every point where it was desirable to
draw rein in order to enjoy the lovely
and varied views. The donkey who
no doubt, knew all these hating
places as well as his master, once
turned aside from the path, in a very
business like fashion, and planted
himself before a gate from which a
specially pleasing outlook was to be
seen. My wife, thinking to please the
man, said: How well your donkey
knows his business. He came of him
self to this lovely view, Just as if he
enjoyed it. But the effect of her words
was very startling. The man became
suddenly and furiously angry. No,
not hei II know how to make ladies
and gentlemen see the views, and all
that is to be seen. Hel-he is an ass.
and knows nothing. II am the
guidep he cried again and again. The
beast is an ass, | tell you'll He knows
nothing. In short, he was furiously
Jealous of his donkey, and bitterly re-
scented the compliments paid the beasts
sagacity as so much taken from his
own praises. San Francisco Argo-
naut.

"BOSS OF BEASTS"
THAT TITLE BELONGS TO THE
GRIZZLY BEAR.

In habits and disposition the grizzly IS
totally unlike the black bear. The latter,
while o%mnivorous, is by preference a
vegetarian, but the grizzly scorns a vege-
table diet when he can get meat. The
black bear will run when attacked and IS
dangerous only when brought to bay, but
the grizzly will fight at the drop of the
hat, and once aroused will fight until he
is dead without a thought of retreat. In
intelligence, also, the grizzly is vastly
superior to all other bears:
With a repeating rifle of heavy calibre,
one carrying the Government cartridge
with 500 grains of lead backed by seventy
grains of powder, a steady nerved and
expert rifeman has even chances with a
full grown grizzly in a fight on reasona
bly, open ground. A man armed with
single shot rifle or the old forty-foul
Winchester has an uphill fight on his
hands, and ought to pick out his tree be-
fore the battle begins. Neglect of TIN;
precaution has cost many a man his life,
or. if fortunate enough to fall into the
clutches of an uncommonlv conslderate
bear. the use of a limb or his good looks
at the very least.

This time the bear sat down at the
foot of the tree and watched them with
malicious patience. The wind increased
and the fire spread on all sides, and in a
few moments it became uncomfortably
warm up the tree. The bear kept the
tree between himself and the fire, and
waited for the men to com down. Jetf
and Jess got 4 little protection from the
heat by hugging the lee side of the
trunk, but it became evident that the
tree 0 o would be in a blaze, and unless
they Jumped and ran within the next
two minutes they wouldbe roasted. They
hoped that the grizzly would weaken
first, but he seemed to be in no hurry to
leave. When the flames began crawling
up the tree and the heat became unen
durable, the elder Howard said:
"Jess, which would you rather take,
chances with grizzly or freq

with his arm.

They crawled out along a limb, swung
nv their hands tor an instant and at the
word they dropped to the ground within
| ten feet of the bear and sprang away a
full speed. They broke right through
the ring of fire, getting their hair slnged

when he fell, but he had a vague con-
sciousness of being rolled over W OF
three times, and felt the bears hot
breath upon his face before he lost his
senses entirely. The bear did him no
more injury, evidently supposing him to
be dead, and when Searles recovered
consciousness he managed to crawl to his
horse, mount and ride to the Liebra
ranch. John Cuddy, who met him at
the ranch, told me that Searles was the
worst used up man he ever saw alive,
and didn't look as though he would live
two hours, but Searles was tough and the
doctor managed to save him.

During the last fifteen years but few
men have been killed by grizzlies in Cali
fornia, partly because the bears are mo-
easily found and partly because hunters
have learned better than to attack then
with inefficient weapons. In early days
a man was likely to meet a grizzly any
