An Awkward situation.

A physician of Ocosta, Wash, while
botanizing in the woods near that
place recently, stumbled across big
black bear, which got annoyed at his
presence and chased him. The rail-
road was a few yards away, and the
doctor took to the track and sprinted
along it few yards ahead of the
beast, until long trestle was reached,
when the bear halted and squatted
down to watch the doctor hop along
the ties. When he was third of the
way across freight train appeared
ut the further end. Out on high
trestle, with bear waiting for him at
one end and a freight train coming for
him from the other, the doctor felt
that the situation was embarrassing.
He dropped to a supporting beam,
hung from the end of 1t while the
train passed overhead, and then con-
tinued his way across the trestle and
home by another route.

circular arch over the opening, which
Is enriched with a zigzag molding;
some of these project slightly from the
wall. The fiucs, however, go only n
few feet up In the thickness of the
wall, and are turned ut the back. the
apertures being small oblong holes.
At Castle Rockingham, Essex, which is
about the same date, there are fire.
places and chimneys of similar kind.
A few years later the improvement Of
carrying the flue up through the whole
height of the wall appears, as at Christ
church, llants; the keep Mt Newcastle;
Shcrbornc castle, Dorsctshirc; Conis-
borough castle, Yorkshire, and Boothby
Pagnell, Lincolnshire. The early chin
ncy shafts are of considerable height
and circular, afterward they assume u
great variety of forms, and during the
fourteenth century they are frequent
ly extremely short. Previous to the
sixteenth century the shaft is often
short, and not unfrequently terminated
by spirc or pinnacle, usually of rath-
er low proportions, having apertures
of various forms, under and sometimes
in 1t, for the escape of the smoke.
There are also taller shafts of various
forms-squarc, octangular or circular
-surmounted with cornice, forming
n sort Of capital. the smoke issuing
from the top. Clustered chimney shafts
do not appear until rather late in the
fifteenth century; afterward they be-
came very common, and were frequent
ly highly ornamented, especially when
of brick.

FISHING WITH DOGS.
Unique Method of Capturing Salmon Used

The savages of Saghalin island have
a unique method of fishing for salmon
trout with their dogs, a description Of
which is given In 'Trans-Siberian Saw

Is wonderfully clear. The author, who
went out in a canoe, says the bottom
was distinctly visible, while from
under the canoe the frightened salmon
trout were swimming seaward Ia such
numbers IL seemed as If il would be
difficult to drop stone into the water
without striking one.

be taking thirty dogs with them for.

point all the men and dogs came to u

According to the Chicago Herald the
report recently current that Major
Wilson and party were killed by King
Lobengula's forces is corroborated by
dispatches from Cape Town. These
are to the effect that Wilson and his
entire party have been annihilated by
the savagcs This was accomplished,
however, only after hard fight, in
which Wilson's force acquitted itself
with soldierly honor. The Matabeles
greatly outnumbered the whites, who,
after II long and gallant resistance,
were unable to withstand the final
charge of the natives. Those who did
not die fighting were killed and robbed
of clothing and accouterments.

A traveller in the Himalayan noun

hitherto unknown in civilized agricul-

the look of wheat but has very much
longer ears, and which has peculiar
inward curve. The shiny, brown grain,
unlike wheat, is, on the other hand,
much smaller than wheat grains should
be for SO large an ear. But the inter
est is that cereal of this character
should yield such heavy crops in so
high an altitude, where the seasons are
necessarily short and the temperature
low. The natives call the grain kow-

A REASONABLE OBJECTION.

An English Clergyman Who Protested
AGAINST u Remarkable Name.
Sometimes in English country par
ishcs, where the clergyman has been
accustomed to have his own way, he
protests vigorously if the name pro-
posed for q child about to be christcned
does not suit him. Occasionally, how
ever, he does SO upon false promises.

dent:
The late Dean Burgon, when a
curatc in Berkshire, was requested by
a village couple to christcn their boy

Are You aware" he said, that you
are asking something ridiculous as
well Us exceedingly wicked? Do you
suppose am going to give Christian

in heather mythology? How did such
a monstrous notion get into your
heads?"
Please, sir" said the father, 1--WE
want him called after his grandfather. !"
And do you say his grandfather was
named Nenus?"
Yes, sir; there he is, SIR"
, A poor old man, looking very unlike
Venus, hobbled out of the crowd.
'iDo you dare to say you were chris
tened Ncnus?'' asked the indignant
clergyman.
"Well, no, sir" was the respectful
answer, Il was christened Sylvanus,
but they always called me Vanus."
