When people understood what he

suit among themselves. The banker
leaped upon the platform. He was q

philosophical enthusiasm was so great
that cheer after cheer for the Chronicle
arose. while the fire which had de-
stroyed its outward presence among

Bradshaw, was called upon for a
speech and lifted to the platform. He
had but one boot on, but, Drumming to

heart to the hearts bearing him up in

sac SAWED THE TREE IN I'VE.

A Farmers Wife Rescuea Her HUsband
FROM Beneath . Fallen Tree Trunk.
A story comes from South Lewiston
about a farmer who was cutting wood
in his wood lot on low part of the
farm one Saturday Afternoon, says the
Lewiston journal. His wife and chill
dren had gone TO Lisbon on business,
and would not be back till eight o'clock
in the evening. 1t was three o'clock.
He cut on one side of big beech, and
was cutting through the other side
when suddenly it fell, and as 1t did 50
the end slid over the stump for ten feet
and then rolled off
1t was done so quickly that the
farmer had no time in which to get out
Of the way. The log rolled off and
struck him, pinning one leg down to
the soft moss and muck in which he
was standing. The bone was not
broken, but he could not get out. His
own house was nearest to the spot, but
no one was there. In his pocket he
carried revolver with but one -epSx
fridge in it. The explosion Of tins
would attract attention, but II that
failed to attract anyone he might stay
there all night He waited there In the
cold and wet until his wife was sure to
be at home, and then fred the shot and
cried out for help at the top of his voice.
In half an hour his wife, who had
missed him on her arrival home, had
found him there, and sawed the log off
with cross-cut saw She assisted him
to the house, where he was put through
a course of sprouts. as he terms it, and
was warmed up so that he recovered
with only lame leg and bad cold.

FOR HUNTING N TAE WEST


sixty Thousand Acres to Be Purchased
for That Purpose.
A gigantic hunting scheme which sets
all historical precedents in the shade Is
on foot.
Interested in it are the great landed
proprietors and varied men Of Europe
and the United States. Il is no less a
project than to purchase sixty thousand
acres Of land in this country and fence
it in as huge hunting ground.
Some time ago party of English mo-
blemen and military men, In which
were Lord Lonsdale and other we'll
known 'noble sports started out west
on what was thought to be pleasure
trip. 1t had wider intention, how
ever, for this is the scouting party
which has carefully surveyed land In
Texas, Arizona, Utah and other states
for proper site for their "happy hunt
ing grounds.
They have at last decided on buying
up from the settlers and proprietors In
that district sixty thousand acres at the
junction OF Utah, Arizona and Nevada,
taking in portions of each state and .
part of the Snake range of mountains.
This Is well known to be the best hunt
ing region in the country A company
will be organized with capital stock
OF twenty-five million dollars; to obtain
and to hold the land membership In this
company or club win cost the small
figure Of $4,000. The whole district
will be fenced. and the noble scions Of
Europe, with the Vanderbilts, Astors
and varied aristocrscy of our free land
will hunt at leisure, as the barons OF
old did on the confscated lands Of the
poorer people.
