Brave Men.

In Mr.. Gilbert Parker's chapter on
Queensland in 1882 the author pays
the tribute to the kindness and bravery
of some of the rough men to be found
in the mines. Writing of one of them.
he says: "A fellow who has been
through the American civil war, fol-
lowed Stanley's track across Africa,
shivered with fever in tropical lands
and who will start off on ZOO mile
prospecting tour all alone in the wilds,
generally has stuff in him.
Il have heard many tales of bravery
in my travels here.
Three men had arranged for q blast
of dynamite. Two of them walk away,
while the other lights the fuse. The
fuse being lighted, the NAVY
throws the lighted match aside. 1t
drops into keg Of gunpowder, and he
is blown up.
HE falls, lacerated and burnt, just
across the hole where the dynamite
is. His comrades see his danger, run
forward and drag him away just in
time. And they go on with their work
as if nothing had happened.
"a thousand feet below ground at
olympic, I was told a tale which deepens
ones belief in the soundness of human
nature in this selfish age; which shows
us that the heroic is as lively in the
world as ever it was.
