Wild Cattle in the Northwest.

In several parts of Washington and British Columbia are herds of wild ami mals descended from domestic ancestors. For instance, in the western edge of Washington, next the coast, is the rem nant of a herd of cattle which for years has roamed through the woods and over the prairies there.
 Long ago military post was main tained on Gray's harbor, and adjacent was large amount of cleared land, cultivated by soldiers as farm. The troop owned good many cattle, which pastured on part of the garrison ranch. For some reason or other the post was abandoned and the soldiers found it inn possible to take their cattle with them So the animals were left there, and since there were no settlers ill the vicinity to look after them the herd grew wild.
 In spite of the fact that the heavy for est afforded but small amount of pas turage, and notwithstanding the depre- dations of black wolves, which then in- tested the woods along the coast, the cattle increased in numbers very rapid ly and were constant annoyance to early settlers. Fences were broken down, crops were destroyed and tame cattle coaxed off to the woods. Many of the animals were killed by parties or ganized to exterminate them, and the remainder of the herd was driven into the skirts af the Olympics and into the coast range south and east of Gray's harbor. But every now and then the hunter for elk, which abound in these mountains, comes upon bunch of wild cattle almost as fleet as the deer.-St. kooh Pest Dispatoh.

Cannot Catch Gladstone.

One hears various stories of the clever. ness displayed by NIT. Gladstone in elud- ing inconvenient questioners, but the following, which is perfectly authentic, strikes London correspondent as being quite the best of the bunch. The other evening some earnest young Radicals were invited to meet the prime minister They naturally longed to discuss the po- liical situation with him and to receive some advice for their guidance. Mir. Gladstone, however, ,descanted with great eloquence on the proper place in. the church for the organ.
 Then there was short lull, and the boldest of them pulled himself together and propounded somewhat hesitating question on home rule, or about it. The old parliamentary hand either did not hear or affected conven; at deafness. Before the sentence could be repeated MT. Gladstone was deep in learned ar gument with clergyman present upon hymns. ancient and modern. The re- mainder of the company sat in silence. with feelings that can be easier imagined than described.

FREMONT TEMPLE BURNED.

The Third Disaster by Fire to This Famous
 Boston Structure.
 BOSTON, March 20-This city was visited by third great fire, which at one time threatened far worse disaster than resulted. No lives were lost, however, as was the case in both the other fires. The total property loss will approximate s4O0, 900, the most of which will have to be borne by the insurance companies.
 This loss is mainly that on historic Ire mont Temple, which is practically in ruins. There was great danger at one time to that well known hostelry, the Parker House, but this was fortunately averted. The fire was discovered by gas engineer at the Parker House and had already gained great headway, for when the fire apparatus ar rived the whole rear of the building was in flames. An alarm was rang in from the hotel, and second and third alarm soon followed. Several streams were soon play ing upon the building, and after two hours of hard fighting the fire was under control

Queer Earth In California.

They are dredging some very queer stuff down at McNear's basin. They struck it few feet below the surface and have cut through about 12 feet in depth of it thus far. It Is the very em- bodiment of toughness. It requires to be cut into shavings, as it were, by one passage of the machine, and then in dis engaging and lifting it the 300-horsepow- or machine is strained to the utmost. It is very much like dredging stratum of india rubber. The same machine would make at least five times the speed and headway through the friable rock that underlies our principal streets. Besides being tough, indicating very large per centage of aluminium in its composition, 1t Is remarkably heavy, much more so than the hardpan or ordinary clays of ths visanaty. .-Pstalxma Courier.
