In a garden a dog wa eating a piece

tous crows They evidently said a
gre. deal to one another on the sub

tried to pull the meat away from the
dog, which he naturally resented At
last big, strong crow succeeded in
tearing off piece, with which he re-
turned TO the tree where the others
were congregated. A long pow-wow
now ensued, which ended in all four
crows flying down 70 the dog, the lead
ing crow dexterously dropping the
small piece of meat within reach of his
mouth The dog Immediately snapped
at it, unwisely letting go the big piece,
which was seized 10y two crows and

material solicitude rarely exhibited in

took into her fold of newly-born
kittens a little orphan chicken, cher
ishing it asN one of her own offspring.
The little waif was accidentally cast
upon the world, the egg which con-
tanned 1t being Matched in an unac-
countable way, without the warmth
always given by the mother hen. The
little kittens and their adopted sister
thrived in peace and harmony together.
OF course, the little stranger did not
eat at the same table with the rest of
the family, but found its nourishnent
from little insects, worms and crumbs.
But they basked In the sunshine under
the same material guidance, and
warmed on cold nights at the same
motherly breast. The strangest part
of ali Is that when the kittens arrived
at maturity the old cat parted with
them without a murmur, while nothing,
IL seems, can sever the ties that bind
her to che chicken, now grown to

THE GRIzzLYs PLUCK.

He Can DO Plenty of Damage When He
Is " NominaIIy Dead"
Personally / have more respect for
his majesty, the grizzly bear, than for
any other animal | ever trailed, the
tiger not excepted, writes w. I. Horna-
day in an article on the bears of North
America in st. Nicholas It is quite
true that many an able-bodied grizzly
is caught mapping and killed dead
easy" as the baseball language says,
but 50 are big tigers also, for that mat
ter In fact, know Of one large tiger
weighing within five pounds of Ave
hundred, who was promptly laid low
by two bullets from mere pop-gun of
a rifle, and there was no fuss about it,
either.
1t is easy enough to kill grizzly at
a good safe distance of hundred yards
or so, which allows the hunter to fire
from three to six shots by the time the
teeth and claws get dangerously near.
But to attack fully-grown and wide
awake Ursus horribilis in brushy
ground at twenty or thirty yards dis
lance is no child's play. AS an old
hunter once quantity expressed it to
me: "A grizzly bar'll git up an come
at ye with blood in his eye after he's
nominally dead" The point Of it is,
this bear is so big, and so enveloped in
long, shaggy hair, his head Is so wedge
like, his strength and tenacity of life
so great, and his rage when wounded
so furious that at that short range he
is hard to kill quickly, and kill so
dead that he cannot get a blow at the
hunter.
The strength in a grizzlys arm is
tremendous, and when the blow comes
accompanied with claws five or six
inches long, like so many hooks OF
steel on a sledge-hammer, it tears to
shreds what it fails to crush. There
ere many authentic instances on rec
ord of hunters and trappers who have
been killed by grizzly oears, and be-
lieve it could be prov I'd that this ami
NAL has killed more men than all the
other wild animals in North America
combined, excepting the skunks and
their rabies
In the days Of the early pioneers, the
only rifles used were the muzzle-load-
ing. ham rigger squirrel-rifles of small
calioer, and they were no match for
the burly grizzly, either in speed or
strength. As result, bruin had the

RUNNER AND LAZARUS.
Story of Generous Dog Who Protected .
TrfendIess Old Cur.

Frtendless Old Cur.
A homeless dog strayed into a San
Francisco engine house, and was made
welcome by the jolly fremen Though
they named him hummer they treated
him kindly. fed him, made him a bed
and gave him the freedom of the house.
hummer repaid their kindness by
devoting himself TO his new friends.
He ran with the engine TO every fire,
marched with it proudly on parade,
kept other dogs out of its way and
guarded the men if they needed his
care. He was seldom off duty unless
hunger prompted a visit to a neighbor-
ing restaurant, where a friend Of his
engine kindly FED MIN.
One day, after eating hearty meal
there, he crammed his mouth with
meat and bones and trotted off. He
did the 0same the next day, and the
next. Then he was followed. Going
through several streets he entered
small, dark, dirty alley, and, at its
farther end laid the food before a half
starved dog; then, wagging his tail in
satisfaction he kept guard while the
old creature ate.
Learning that hummer was support
Ing friend the firemen went ITO see
what attractions there were about the
old dog. They found a miserable,
dirty skeleton with a broken leg.
Much of his hair was gone and his body
marked with sores and scars, telling of
recent and earlier battles Though
they saw nothing desirable in the old
fellow, BURNERS kindness and wistful
look conquered.
The old creature was taken TO the
engine house, his leg put in splints, an
addition made to Bummer's bed, and
the newcomer given a share in the
others rights. To the dog with sores
the firemen gave the name of Lazarus
Kind treatment and good food showed
their effect on Lazarus, but could not
make him young again. He regained
strength, recovered the use Of his leg
and was able to walk about, but never
to run far with the engine. His duty
seemed to be to guard the house while
his younger friend attended to the en-
CINE in the streets.
The old fellow appeared to be the
butt of every cur IN the ward. The
meanest and most cowardly canine Of
the street need only see Lazarus away
from his business and there followed a

fight, with the old fellow invariably
the under dog. Too old and weak to
battle successfully, yet he seemed to
know nothing about victory. He was
a dog of peace when he had his way;
of defeat when the other had chance.
After few battles Lazarus was let
alone when hummer was near, but
never II his champion was out Of hear
ing. The strong dog need but hear the
faint yelp for aid of his venerable
friend and there came like a black
flash through the streets something
that sent the aggressor tumbling over
and over without knowing what had
struck him. If the scamp desired to
fight he must meet Runners strength
and prowess; usually the battle ended
with the champions first charge
Though kindness and care prolonged
the life of Lazarus, they could not
stop the later approach of death. 1t
came slowly but surely. The old dog
ceased TO eat, nor would he try the
incest dainties. Bummer's watching
and the attention of the flremen, APP
preciated by the old fellow, made his
end easy
The men made box, placed the body
of the dead dog in it, and, followed by
hummer, carried it out TO a vacant lot
and gave it decent burial.
A change came over hummer after
his friends death. He lost freshness.
refused 10 follow the engine. declined
food, would not take medicine, and
seemed to be grieving himself to death
Though he received the attention of
the firemen kindly, he showed no in
terest in them nor anything they did.
Sitting at the door of the engine-room.
or lying in his bed, he allowed time to
pass as though he had lost all interest
in life. Thus he gradually wasted
away, died from grief and starvation
A few weeks after the death of Lag
arus Runners dead body lay in the
same bed.
The trenen made a neat box for a
coffin, and carried their friend to a
pleasanter vacant lot than had been
used for the other, and, while some
lug grave for hummer. others dug
up the other dog, and in the new grave
they laid the friends side by side. Over
the mound they raised stone, on
which they had the names Of the faith
full friends; and, unless the stone has
been removed recently, it vet marks in
that vacant lot the last resting place Of
hummer and Lazarus Chicago Inter

This Tells Yon How She Loves and Brings
Up Her Children.
This mother is as fond of jumping as
the grasshopper Is and nature has
given her the power 10 take long leaps
and TO get over the ground faster that
way than most animals do In running
She takes sometimes thirty feet at a
jump, which Is pretty rapid locomotion.
you see.
The kangaroo, for | suppose you
know what animal Is referred to, can
walk, but IL Is an awkward walk at
best. Apparently 1t would be better to
hop when hopping Is SO much easier,
ans no doubt the kangaroo thinks so.
The tail of the kangaroo is almost as
good as a fifth leg to her. She rests
upon it In walking or jumping and
uses II as a weapon to strike animals
that attack her.
The kangaroo is I'D To be sociable
animal It lives In woods, in herds.
But the strangest thing about the
mother kangaroo Is the way sire ar
ranges her nursery. S he does not con-
struct house in n cave or a hollow
tree or in the ground Nature has
provided her with soft, furry bag on
the under side of her body. 50 she car
ries her babies around with her every
where she goes. Ia this bag the babies
stay until, at eight or nine months old,
they have grown strong enough to hop
cut little and eat some J ice. fresh
grass while the mother is getting her
own dinner.
But even when 1t gets TO be pretty
big child the baby kangaroo likes to
creep back again sometimes to its coy,
warm summer nursery and take nap
And while the babies are hopping
about the motAer is very watchful At
the slightest suspicion Of danger she
picks up her children, pops them into
the bag and off she hops with them to
q safer place.
In Australia the giant lSangaroos are
