CALIFORNIA HERMlTS.
Men Passing Their Lives in Idle Solitude
on the Mountain Tops.

Men Passing Their Lives in Idle Solitude
on the Mountain Tops,
Is man essentially a social animal? The
scientists say so. But in the mountains
Of California there are almost enough
men who for years have led a life of ut
ter solitude to diSprove the generaliza-
ton. These mountain hermits can be
found scattered through the Sierras and
the coast range from one end Of the state
to the other. They are particularly nu-
merous through this region, centering
about the Yosemite valley and extend
ing far back into the high Sierras. Some
Of thom were once guides in the valley,
others have been miners, and some
again seem to have taken up the life of
solitude simply because they like it.
To this class belongs old P. r. Gibson
-"Old Glib" as he is generally called
who lives on a mountain ranch. He is
seventy-fivs years old, but is possessed of
as much physical strength and endurance
as the average man Of half his age. He
came thirty years ago from Tennessee,
where he left wife and a large family
of children. One Of his sons came to see
him recently arl tried to induce him to
visit his former home, but "Old Glib
steadfastly refused to leave his little
ranch and solitary cabin. He has never
seen a railroad and the stage drivers
from the nearest station try their utmost
to persuade him to go to town and at
least look at train Of cars. But his in
variable answer is; do you think I'm
going down there to be bowed up by
one of them there blamed engines; Not
muohIN
Nearly all the men who live this life
of solitude very long get a bit queer in
the head, and "Old Glib" is no exception
to the rule. He has a rigmarole dsscrip-
ton Of himself which declares that he IL
''the best man in the United States or
adjoining territories, either directly or

Ola Mag Lambert, who has a cabin in
The high Sierras some thirty miles back
Of the Yosemite, is another Of the noun

mining claim. but lives by what he
shoots and by an occasional few dollars
earned from camping parties. He has
lived eloue In that same spot for years
and years, and win In all likelihood stay

at time that he does not see another

there is rebound clear to the back Of

another lunge, something gives way, and
maybe three or four more cars telescope
Then there's another jerk backward and

is mixed up with the trucks under the
whole stack it seems like an hour"
