Cougar Fights.

have often wondered what hindered
the cougars from being very plentiful.
They are monarchs Of the woods, and are
very sly, with plenty of game and cattle
to live on. This spring was talking
with an old cruiser "a man who hunts for
timber and good land claims), who had
followed the business for the last twenty
wears in Oregon. He never takes gun,
but carries only blanket and a small
axe. He related that one night when he
was camping in the head Of a ravine
about dark he heard cougar scream on
one of the ridges, and this one was an
swered by another on the opposite ridge.
They kept working toward the head,
until finally they came together some 3OO
yards above him in some quaking aspen,
and such a row and racket as they made
he had never heard before. They rolled
down within 100 yards of him, and he
says he was pretty we'll scared, but he
kept up a big fire and stayed behind that.
They quieted down in a couple Of hours,
and the next morning, when it was light
enough, he went on to the battle-ground.
He found one of them lying there dead,
all cut and torn to pieces. 1t was a very
large one.
Four days afterward as he was coming
back the same way, some 500 yards from
where he had found the first one, he
stumbled upon the other one, dead.
This, too, was all cut and torn as the first
had been. At another time he heard a
big fight going on, but did not go to see
the results. He was stopping one night
with an old Indian, who had hunted and
trapped all his life, and was telling him
about the fight, when the Indian said
that that was the way when two old
males met; one or the other was killed,
and very often both; and that whenever
the male would find the young ones and
the mother absent he would kill the last
one Of them, but if the mother were with
them she would keep him OF. That must
be the reason that the mother goes with
the young until they are nearly two years
old. They say that all the cat kind will
kill their young. We know that this is
so with the domestic CAT E6ret and

"a lust Beast"

The London correspondent OF the
Manchester Courier says he heard rather
an amusing story the other day about the
Bishop of London which has not, he be-
lieves, appeared in print. When DR..
Temple held the head mastership of
Rugby a boy in the school came up be-
fore him for some breach Of discipline.
Facts seemed rather against the boy, who
was in imminent danger of being ex-
pelled. He had a defence, but being
neither clear headed nor fluent in the
presence Of the head master he could not
make it clear. He therefore wrote home
to his father detailing at length his posi-
ton and his explanation. His father
very wisely thought the best thing he
could do was to send the boys letter as
it stood to DR.. Temple, merely asking
him to overlook any familiarity Of ex-
preston. Apparently the father had not
turned over the page and seen his sons
postscript, foi there DR.. Temple found
the following words; "If l could ex-
plain it would be all right, for though
Temple Is beast, he is a just beast" "
The Bishop, in telling the story, is ac-
customed to say it was the greatest com
pliment he has ever received In his life.

An Heroic Empress in a Cholera Plague.

Tho cholera scare that has afflicted
Europe to a degree has recalled an Incl
dent of the time when Napoleon III. was
at the height of his power. The cholera
prevailed to frightful extent at Amiens,
yet never a day passed that the Empress
did not visit the hospitals to superintend,
so far as she could, the noble work of
allaying the sufTerings OF the stricken.
One morning a cure rushed into the
ward where the Empress was consoling a
dying man. "Oh, your Majesty" cried
the cure, "two hours ago my vicar was
breakfasting with me, and now he is
dead"
Eugene smiled placidly. "That Is
good" she said.
"Goodl" echoed the cure, in a tone of
amazement.
"Yes, it is WELL" she answered.
"When once cholera becomes as violent
as that it ceases"
The Empress was right; from that day
the plague abated. Eugenie's valor did
much to fortify the people against the
epidemic, to which very many, l am
told fell victims through sheer fright
alone.
Six months ago the English doctors
secuted the idea that this island could
be in danger of a visitation from cholera.
"Cholera cannot cross the channel of it
SELF" they boasted, "and cur system of
quarantine is simply perfect" So much
for English braggadocio; the fact re-
mains that at this moment the people of
the island are shivering like blanc manges
through fear of the plague, which, de-
spite representations to the contrary, OBJ
tains to an alarming extent in the south
Of Europe. Chicago NerS.

Alaska Newspapers.

The newspapers of Alaska consist Of
two published at Juneau, and two at
Sitka. OF the last named one is issued
by the management of the Indian Mis-
sion, and serves as a sort of monthly bull
letin to inform its friends of the work
done and progress made. The other,
the alaskan, is owned and edited by
Maurice E. Kenealey, a son of the Lon
don lawyer who became so widely known
as attorney for the plaintiff in the cele-
brated Tichborne case. It's main circu-
lation is among the tourists who visit
Sitka on the excursion steamers. 1t
prints list of the passengers and Off
GERS, together with the officials Of the
Territory, and every visitor buys half a
dozen or more copies to be mailed
through the Sitka postoffice to friends
at home. Aside from this sale which
may produce an income of twenty to
thirty dollars a week, it is doubtful if
the Alaskan has a hundred subscribers.
It's contents are meagre. Sitka has
about 100 white inhabitants and possibly
an Indian population of 1000. 1t is as
pretty a spot as human eyes need wish
to gaze upon.
Juneau is the metropolis Of Alaska, so
far as it is possible to make one for
Territory one-fourth the size of all the
United States, having possibly 5000
white inhabitants in all. Juneau has
resident white population of about 1000.
