The following story was related by 8
Dardistan man Of the name of Ghalib Shah
residing at a village near Astor, called Par
ishing He was one night looking oui
whether any bear had come into his from
ba" field. lie saw that a bear was there
and that he with his paws alternately tool
a pawful of ''sromha," blew the chaf awal
and ate hastily. Tie man was blind Of on'
eye and ran to bis hut to get his gun HI
came out and pointed it at the bear. The
animal, who saw this. ran round the biinc
side Of the mans face, snatched the gur
out of his hand and threw it away.
The hear and the man then wrestled fo'
a time, but afterward both gave up tbs
struggle and retired The man. after hf
had recovered himself. went to look for ths
gun. the stock Of which he found broken
The matchstring by which the stock had
been tied TO the barrel had gone on burning
all night ard had been the eause of the GUT
being destroyed The son Of that man still
lives at the village and tells this story
which the people affect to beIieve.-Dr

TRACK AND STABLE GOSSIP.

A gentleman who WAS at the fair grounds
Friday afternoon says he heard the famous
driver Budd Doble say few days ago that
he thinks Nelson is the fastest tr0tting
horse in the world. Many people will
agree with Mr.-Doble. The great Nelson
is as pure gated trotting horse as ever
lived, and has the energy to carry his
specialization Sun.
DR.. Drake modifes the terms of the pro-
posed match between Early Bird and Mel
son somewhat. lie says that he will match
his horse against the ex-world's champion
for 5000 at RiPby park if the managers of
Rigby will put up s5000 the winner to take
$1,000 and the loser $1,000.
In Mahlon NJ. T. Pooler seems to have
great horse is generally expressed opin-
ion. He is not very fast but has the stay
ing powers to make him a race horse. He
is well bred horse.
Lon Rogers Of Windsor has refused a
straight offer of sll00 for his handsome 2
year-old colt, sire Cunard Jr., dam Maggie,
by Independent Guy by Kennebec.
Arthur Sawtelle of Riverside has half a
dozen first-class colts by Wilkes and Dicta-
tor Chief, out of Knox mares, one especial
ly good one lisa Gray Wilkes. Mr.. Saw
teIle has no time to handle the colts him
self which vary in age from one to five
years, consequently they have had no train
ing at all.
The performance which afforded most
interest to the horse world last week was
that of Directum, the four-year- at
Fleetwood where he trotted mile in 2.O7
What can he DO on better and
mile track and under more favorable
conditions! a prominent horseman writ
ing for the New York Sun says
Mondays feat came as an afterthought to
some very hard work. No trainer looking
forward TO supreme effort on a Monday
would dream of forcing his horse on the
preceding Thursday to win the last three
heats of the hottest OF fve-heat races In
2.I0, 2.l0 I-2 and 90 81, and on Satur-
Jay again 10 take tbfte straight meats IN
2.ll 81, Eli l-2, and 200 l-2. Foolish
ness may be found in horse trotting, bu.
not so extreme as that. Give Nancy
the best legs in the world, and her driver.
if intending to attack the record would as
soon think Of first running her every day
for week at Sheepshead bay. We hest
tate to condemn Directum's rating for the
first half mile which he covered in 90 IL.
Opinions will differ upon the drivers judy
ment on that point. But il the third quarter
including the greater part of the hill, had
been in SO seconds instead Of in 80, 1t il
fair to surmise that the final figures would
have been nearer LOG than 2.07.
There is theory believed in by some OF
the very shrewdest of observers that the
four-year-oh form is the most unsatisfse-
tory in trotter's life. II is said that four
years Of age is the period of Transformation
of the colt or FLY into the horse or mare,
and that relatively to the three-year-old an!
the fve-year-old the four-yesr-old is in
stage Of inferiority. For example, Sunol,
when four. could but just equal her
2.l0 l-2 of tie year previous but when
Eve, she jumped forward TO EOS IL with

matter that may cause the United States

command at least the closest attention
of the diplomats of both countries. The
commissioner In an interview said:

Cieveiand's Family.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE weather
was misty and muggy and the Sunday
quiet about the White House was even
more intense than usual There were a
number of callers to inquire after the
health of Mrs. Cleveland aud the baby and
they were all informed that mother aud
daughter were doing well. DR.. Bryant
remained at the house all day, but declined
to see anyone or to make any statement
regarding his patient.
The birth of another daughter to Presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland will be historic.
for it is the first time a child has been
born to president in the White House.
The little girl is described by the few who
have seen her as being ilne child, weigh
ing more than 10 pounds, and likely to be
as healthy aud as happy as little Ruth
