so that he could coma back To it quickly,
he started up few steps, but the lion put
paw on his shoulder and pulled him
back with great force.
This made Ed all the more anxious to

Jim Clarence can be said to live at the

most peculiar canyon in the Catalina
Mountains in Arizona, but it is such an out

other hayy TO get there. 1t is two days

ney can be made on horseback, bur the
greater portion must be made on foot. The
traveller will have to climb over slipperv
powders the size of an ordinary dwelling
house and force his way across gOrges filled
with thorny plants. Jim's house is in the
bottom of canyon that seems like a pit,
as both ends are closed up, and vet large
waterfall at the upper end throws an
enormous stream at all seasons O the year.
he water runs TO the lower end of the
canyon and there strikes grave bed and
disappears, as many Ar IONA rivers do, to
come out again at scme point possibly
many miles away. The walls of the can
Won are considerably over a thousand feet
high and 50 straight and near together that
tie sun strikes the bottom for only a few
minutes each day.
1t would not seem as if person in his
right senses would want to live in such a
place. and yet jim has always said he
was perfectly happy in his solitude No
body ever comes into the canyon except at
his invitation. and he never goes out ex-
cept 10 get provisions and money which
comes To him in comfortable sums every
few weeks. He is friendly with every
body, although very few know anything
about him. and his habtation was a myS-
terry until he invited young man to spend
few days with him.

He then called Ed up beside him and let
cut wildcat and panther. The TWO
