A most singular occurrence hap

county, New Hampshire. A fox was
started, and, after lively chase, Rey-
nard, being closely pressed. ran into a
cleft in some rocks. A fox hound was
Immediately after the fox and entered
the assure at its heels with such We
locity that he stuck fast in a narrow
place. Seeing the dog could not re-
lease himself, the fox turned and
went out where it came in, squeezing
over or under the dog in some way.
The hound was wedged so tightly in
the narrow space that the hunters
were unable to release him for a day

Origin of an OLD Saying.

The question is often asked as to the
origin Of the oft-used phrase, Dead
as door nail" but is not always an
swered readily. The following expla-
nation recently appeared in the
Chicago Journal of Commerce. "Ths
door nail in earlier times was the
plste on the door upon which the old
fashioned knocker struck to arouse
the inmates Of the house. AS the plate
or nail was struck many moro times
than any other nail. it was assumed
to be deader than other nails. Hence
the phrase. dead as door nail"

A Full BIoodod Apache who Has Travel.
cd Far aud Learned Much.
Since the days of William Kidd, the
talented but unfortunate buccaneer of
the Spanish main, there has been a
halo of romance over the head Of sea
cooks. They have been the heroes
and villains of prodigious tales, and
even their sons have been endowed
with peculiar attributes. Not one,
however, Is himself more of unique
specimen than the cook of the British
ship John Cook, which recently ar
rived at San Diego, Cal, after long
and dangerous voyage from Cardiff.
This cook is full-blooded Apache
Indian, born in the White mountains
of Arizona. His people, the terrible
White mountain and Tonic Apaches,
have caused no end of trouble to the
troops and settlers in Arizona. This
man was named Tumashaney (Silver
River) and was taken when still a
child to Mexico, where he was raised.
He has followed the sea for the
greater part of his life, and has visit
ed every part of the globe, learning
several languages, including English,
and becoming some years ago mem
Der Of the masonic fraternity. In
civilization he IL known - John Levin.
He il quite dark, with The Indian
physiognomy, and although 90 year,

AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
A Race for Life Out OF Fast Spread
ing Forest Fire.


The most exciting experience ever
had was in forest fire near Manis-
tee, Mich. had visited small lum-
Der camp and retired to rest in one OF
the hunks provided for the choppers.
l was awakened by strong light from
the north, and going outside Of the
wooden shanty it seemed to me that
the entire world was on fire. 1t
cracked and snapped, danced and
Jumped as if the demon OF fire was
holding high carnival and celebra-
ting the end Of the world. From every
side could be heard sounds like the
firing of cannon and the shrieks OF dy-
ing human beings. 1t was the falling
of the boughs and the signing Of the
wind, but never heard so horrible a
sound, nor witnessed so weird and ter
rible a sight.
Hastily awakening the other men in
the camp mounted a horse and fled
from the flames. But the horse could
not keep pace with the progress Of the
fire. The lurid heavens looked as
though they were at molten heat; the
air was sitting; the smoke almost suf-
located me, while falling leaves and
boughs burned my horse, and the sick
ening odor Of burning flesh added to
the horror. Within two or three hours
was in an opening, where l was no
longer in danger, but my horse was
badly injured, while my clothing was
full of holes where cmbersaha struck
me. Il will take my chances with cy-
clones or earthquakes, but not with a
burning forest again.

CROKER'S MASK Off.
He Announces That He Will Re-
sign Tammany's Leadership.
But Sceptics Still Believe He Will
Be a Hidden Power.
No Successor VIII BE Chosen for a
While, but Eyes Are OH Gilroy.

Boss Croker has thrown off the cover
behind which he has attempted to
screen his real intention. He makes
the announcement, without any reserva-
ton or qualification, that he will %retirel
from the actual dictatorship of Tam
many Hall his afternoon.
At 4 o'clock the Executive Committee
will meet Croker will then present his
resignation as Chairman OF the Finance
Committee. by virtue of which position
he is a member Of the Executive Com
mittee and leader.
His successor as Chairman of the FL
nance Committee will not be elected at
to-day's meeting, but, whoever he will
be. he will not succeed Croker as
leader.
The Chairman OF the Finance Com
mittee Is likely TO be some business
man. who knows all about finances.
while the political management will
be under the control of the Committee
Of Sixty. for the present at least.
There are people sceptical enough to
believe that this arrangement IL merely
made to hoodwink the people and that
Croker will really continue to direct ar
fairs from behind the throne. The
doubtful ones will not be convinced that

long before PAT" Diver. Barney
Martin. Jake" Seabold and other worth
les will follow Croker into %obscurity.
Only one man continues to be men
toned as Cookers successor, and that
Is Mayor Gilroy. He has said he would
not take the leadership While Mayor,

not accept denomination. II Is more thai
probable that the Craftsmanship OF the

(By Associated Press.)

TACOMA Wash, May lO.-A fight

evening, between marshals and indus

Jollick. OF Tacoma. were shot. the first
named In the leg and the latter through
the bowels. Jollick Is bleeding inter-
nally. Twenty shots were fred In the
melee. Savage, Weaver and McAdee.
all Seattle citizens, received flesh wounds
from revolver shots.
Buck" a Seattle Coxeyite, who was
the leader of the crowd. had two fingers
broken with a club. Great excitement
prevails at Yakima. The fight was the
result of the refusal of the CoXeyites
to leave a train which had been held
there since 10 o'clock. The deputies.
who were outnumbered, gave up after
two attempts to Gust the army and
steamed back to Yakima, two miles
from the scene of the scuf1e. and side
tracked.
The deputies from Coppenish re-
sponded to Chidester's demands for
reinforcements and twenty-five more
went from Ellensburg. At 7 o'clock last
evening the train backed to the bridge
over the Yakima River, a mile from the
town. Half the population followed.
The Coxeyites boarded the train to the
number of $50. Chichester says one OF
them attempted to set a brake. A
deputy ordered him to stop. On his re-
fusal the deputy pulled him away.
The Coxeyites began clubbing the dep
uty. and then shooting commenced. The
Coxeyites retreated. breaking a switch
and piling rocks on the track, but after
wards removing them. As soon as the
fight was begun stones were thrown at
the engineer and fireman in an attempt
to d!slodge them: The train backed into
