Two hunters in the California Sierras
were returning home after days hunt
when their dog scared up a panther that
took refuge in tree. Each hunter had
four shots left and the first hunter sue
ceeded in breaking the panthers hind leg,
but failed to dislodge it. The other man
then fired his complement with the result of
only inflicting a flesh wound. With ammu-
milton exhausted and the panther still LASH
ing it's tail in defiance, the hunters held
consultation and finally hit upon plan.
Making a running moose in a lariat, one of
the men climbed an adjoining tree, and,
with a long pole, tried to slip the rope over
the beasts head. But the panther was too
wary, knocking aside the pole every
time with his paws. Suddenly the man saw
another Chance and quickly slipped the
moose over the broken leg and drew it
tight Then he climbed down the tree and
both men began to pull, and presently down
the panteher came. There was a mass of
solved the men and the dog were pretty
badly scratched, but the panther was dead.
While two men were spearng salmon on
the Columbia river, in Oregon, they noticed
a large gray eagle lowering ovex the water,
bird until it suddenly swooped down and
bounced on a big fish. The fish must have
weighed sixteen pounds, and it soon became
evident that the eagle could not lift it clear
Of the water. After several ineffectual eff
forts the bird next tried to release its hold,
but it was caught fast as if in a trap Final
ly it was itself dragged into the water, and
the swift current swept the odd cOmbatantS
down stream until they lodged in a fish-net.
where both were caught. The fish was
Aiued: the eagle was already dead

QUEER SUBSTITUTES FOR MONEY.
Early American Coins Took odd Shapes
Notable Collection.

Early American Coins Took odd Shapes-A
Notable Collection.
The collection of coins, or, more exactly
speaking, the articles which have passed
for money in different countries and in
different ages of the world, at the National
museum is a complete one and well repays
one for visit. The earliest American
coins are believed TO have been those made
by Cortez, by permission of the Spanish
government, and were issued about the
time of the death of Columbus which oc-
CURED in 500, They are of copper, and on
the one side is u representation of the
"Pillars of Hercules. "
Next in point of time comes the money
for Bermuda which was minted in Eng
land These coins are of copper of the
value Of shilling and sixpence, and on
one face is the picture of hog; hence it is
known as the hog money" The early
settlers Of these islands found SO many of
these animals roaming about that they
used it to mark the coin. Only one six
pence and two shilling pieces of this
money are believed to exist and both are
owned in Boston. Among the oddities OF
the collection is the "knife money of the
Chinese, used about the commencement OF
the Christian era. The pieces are shaped
something like a razor, about inches long,
are Of copper and worth about cents.
Ring money" is another curious vari-
ETY., which was used by the early Gauls
and Britons In those days, as there were
no banks and safe deposit companies, il
was the fashion to carry all ones wealth
upon ones person. The amount was
wrought into ornaments of various de.
signs, but of a fixed standard of weight, and
they were frequently made in two or three
parts, which could be readily separated
and used as change. But coins of the diff
ferent metals have not been the only arti
oles which have been used as money. Salt
nodded into bricks of a fixed size and
weight is used in countries where this ne
oessity of life is hard to obtain and far
more valuable to the people than any met
