years ago, be became affected with
softening of the brain, and was sent
to the asylum, where he died help

Mendonhall and Moose,

| George Mendonhall, a resident Of
Franklin Meadows, on Bear river,
had rather a peculiar experience
one day last week. 1t was about
dusk, and he had gone out to milk
the cows that had came up from
the meadows. After driving them
into the corral he put up the bars
and commenced milking, paying no
particular attention to an animal
that stood watching every move
ment he made. AS soon as he had
done milking one cow he started
for another. Before he could reach
her he received a terrific butt in
the back that sent him sprawling.
1t dazed him for a moment and
scrambling to his feet he made
rush for the fence, before he could
reach it however the animal inter
cepted him and there he stood face
to face with an enormous buck
moose ready to make for him at
the slightest move. Mr.. Mendon-
hall shouted for help and one of
his men came running out from the
house to know what was the matter.
A hurried explanation was made
and the man ran to get gun. Be-
fore he could return the moose took
after Mr.. Mendonhall again there
was no chance for retreat and he
was compelled to meet his anita
gonist with a milk pail, his only
weapon of defence. AS the beast
came within striking distatce he let
fly with the milk pail, striking full
in the forehead. This checked for
an instant the mad rush of the
moose, of which Mendonhall was
not slow to take advantage and
quick as a flash he closed in upon
it. Grasping firm hold upon
the large fiat horns he threw his
whole weight upon them. This
brought the moose to its knees but
in a second it was up again and
started off on a trot about the cor
raj with Mendonhall dangling in
front. The animals vison was COM
pletely INSTRUCTED and not being
any too considerate of the feelings
of the obstructionist it would butt
up against the fence with a force
sufficient to brake every bone in
Mendonhall's body, and would
surely have done so in few mo-
ments longer. The timely arrival
of the hired man with gun ended
Mr.. moose in short order. 1t is
gratifying to know that Mendonhall
is alive to tell the tale and the
above is synopsis of the affair as
told by Commissioner Lapfray to a
reporter of the Enterprise. The
moose dressed nearly 500 pounds,
and it is the largest ever captured
in that country.-Idaho Enterprise.

A Blizzal,l.swept Country =.


Look upon our own locality of al.
most perpetual sunshine, with its
balmy spring-like atmosphere, and
glance at such reports as the follow
ing, which appeared in the Chicago
Inter Ocean Of the Goth, telegraphed
from Wilkesbarre, Pa, on the 10Th:
At nine o'clock tonight terrific
blizzard swept over this city and vi
cinity. It had been showing all day
and in the evening the fury of the
storm increased. The wind, blowing
forty miles an hour, from the south.
west, drove the snow before it in
sheets. Pedestrians almost within the
reach of their own doors became con.
fused by the binding snow and had
serious difficulty in reaching places of
safety.
And this from New York:
Snow has been falling all day and
at 9 o'clock tonight was three feet
deep on Main street. The wind at one
time during the afternoon reached a
velocity of sixty miles an hour.
There is full column of this same
kind Of news from those eastern states,
while here we bask in sunshine and
warm weather.
Capt. Jack Crawford as "the Poet
Scout
On Tuesday evening Capt. Jack
Crawford, of whom the STAR has pre-
viously spoken, appeared in the opera
house under the auspices of Silas A.
Strickland Post and W. R. G. to give
the people one Of his interesting en-.
tertainments. He was an old pioneer
friend of Judge w. H. Wood, deceased,
and learning that the widow was in
rather needy circumstances he pro.
vided that the entire proceeds of the
evening should be given to Mrs. Wood
He was greeted with good house, and
the net proceeds amounted to $5O.5O
This was indeed kind act upon the
part Of Capt. Jack, and shows the true
kindness of the nsn-a whole.souled
large hearted. kind man. He paid hi.
own expenses. and it seemed to do his
heart good to be able to do this kind
ness for the widow Of his pionee,
''rard." As to the entertainment, i,
WAS novel, interesting, pathetic anc
humorous. It was ricn. For aboul
two and on-.half hours he held thu
closest attention of the audience
either in laughter or tears, his quain
stories and incidents OF his "border'
life. mingled with recitations of hi
