They Sometimes Take Queer Liber-
ties. Regardless OF Precedent,
It might be OF some interest to your
readers to learn OF the freaks OF two
bullets that came under my observa.
ton in 1877, during the Nez Perez In
dian war, in the cottonwood fight,
says Lew Wilmot in Forest and
Stream.
+. A. Fem had bullet cut four
holes in his pantaloons without draw
ing blood, and one burned both lips
and loosened front tooth. This
was kissing a bullet in reality.
About one week later was running
race with some fifteen or twenty
Indians. The goal was a small
mound. Whoever reached the mound
first could hold it. We had some
friends coming on the trail, which
passed Just at the loot OF the mound.
The horse was riding was quite fast.
1 had got 100 yards or so ahead OF
my companion, and stopped to take
a shot at an Indian. Alter | shot I
jumped on my horse just as young
fellow came up. We were on the move,
when he said, Lew Pm shot," I
asked him if he was hurt badly. mo,

him, for / had the trail and the
Indians had the grass. reached the
foot of the mound when the nearest
Indian was about $50 yards away
from the loot on his side. Themound
was tolerably steep and about $50
feet high. ! let my horse climb asfast
rs he could. When reached the top
i jumped off and the Indians were on
long-range Remington. | opened fire
and kept it up as long as they were in
sight. When the excitement was over
the young fellow showed me where he
had been shot. The ball had Just
grazed his arm, making blue streak
about five inches long, and had struck
his gun barrel, where it screws into
the frame, and had raised q dent on
the inside OF the barrel as large as a
pea; it then glanced and fell into his
left hand. The gun was ruined, but it
saved his life.
The shot had been fred at me, as
the young fellow had not been in
sight for an instant.

you, don't want to be around when

Good Dogs.

DR.. Gardner, OF Sharon Springs,
New York, is the owner ofseveral dogs
Gordon and Irish settlers. A little
while ago four OF them disappeared,
and were absent for six days. On
Sunday they returned, not together
but separately, at intervals OF about
ten minutes.
The dogs looked hall starved, and
evidently expected punishment for
their truanCy. In the evening their
absence was satisfactorily explained.
One of DR.. GARDENERS hired men,
John Hitler, started for a pond about
two miles distant, for the purpose OF
gathering pond lilies. As he neared
the pond he came across three OF the
dogs, Nellie, Beauty and Brownie, in
the woods. Rix was not in sight.
John presently discovere that the
dogs had chased two young coons in
to the hollow OF an old tree. Rix had
forced himself so tightly into the tree
that he could not release himself. The
three other dogs would not desert
him in his trouble, but had remained
by him for six days. They had made
efforts to release Rix by breakingl the
tree, bnt to no purpose. They had
barked to call for help, but the neigh
bors who heard them paid no atten-
ton.
With the aid OF fence rail John
Hitler released Xix from his perilous
condition. The coons were dead.
Rix would certainly have died had the
other dogs deserted him.
