 The mountain lion when very hungry is a cunning and devilish animal and never springs on i,s prey -. .-- -.,., x>f ;s Tka e,p,a g,..f,,- will apply to the human race. only the latter are not as often successful in their leaps. This was exc npli- fled the other day, ani for some reason or other has been kept on the ''dead quiet" among those who are interested. Young B own, a son of Captain Brown of Whi 2ple, comes up regularly from the Post two or three times day on his bicycle, and not being known to the Brigade" here naturally pays no attention to them as they ''cut the pigeon wing" or the atmosphere for that matter on their machines. In short Young Brown is a modest young man. His distant conduct to his brothers in arms" has been caught on to, and as one expressed it "ws'll jus, lay for hi F." this evening and get acquainted with him and show the "iay" We are good enough to ride with him. Brown started home that evening on his wh ,el from the post office, at a moderate gait read ing a letter and using both hands of course to hold the letter instead oi the steeiiny ap- paratus. Just then the two scalp hunters emerged and started for their victim. Btown soon noticed that they wanted to pass by, and putting the letter and both hands in his coat pocket, released the air brakes, while his two adversaries also let their machines out to full speed. But they never claght up and time only lncrease1 the dis 1 tance between them until the Santa Fe depot was reached, when Brown stopped at the half way house to ak to a soldier. The defeated boys went over to the water tank to cool their ardor and talk over the event, both agreeing not to say any thing about it. Brown still comes up regularly from the post alone, and is never bothered, while some body is composing a new song entitled 1.-Two Little Boys in Blue"
