Almost Dragged Under.

The author Of Eskimo Life" de-
scribed days hunt, when the men
of the village put Olt to sea, each In
his cranky little kaiak, after seals,
auks, fish, or whatever other game
may present itself. Tobias began by
chasing a seal which dived and did
not come up again within sight, but
the man is one Of the best hunters OF
the village, as the reader may Judge
by what follows. He had sighted
another seal, and was Swimming over
the sea toward it, when the huge
head Of hooded seal popped up right
in front OF the kaiak, and was har-
pooned in an instant.
1t makes frightful wallowing and
dives. the harpoon line whirls out,
but suddenly gets fouled under the
throwing-stick Of the bird-dart. The
bow OF the kaiak is drawn under
with an irresistible rush, and before
Tobias knows where he is, the water
is up to his armpits, and nothing can
be see of him but his head and
shoulders and the stern of the kaiak,
which sticks right up into the air.
1t looks as IL 1t were all over with
him. Those who were nearest pad
die with all thrir might to his as
sistance, but with scant hope how
ever to save him.
Tobias, however, is flrst-rate
kaiak man. In spite of his difficult
position, he keeps upon even keel
while he is dragged through the
water by the seal, which does all he
can to get him entirely under.
At last it comes up again, and in a
moment he has seized his lance, and
with deadly aim, had pierced the
seal through the head. A feeble
movement and it Is dead.
The other men come up in time to
find Tobias busy making his booty
fast, and to get the piece Of blubber
to which each is entitled. They can
not restrain their admiration for his
GOODNESS and skill, and speak Of it
long afterward.

Thanks to the Bear.

! Almost hundred years ago two
young men who lived In a Kentucky
fort went out to look for a strayed
horse. They wandered hither and
thither through the woods until, TO-
ward evening, they found themselves
in wild valley six or seven miles
from home. Here the younger of
them, Francis Downing by name,
fancied that he heard the swapping
IOf twigs behind them. Some Indians
were logging their footsteps, he be-
lieved. His companion, Yates, treat
ed the matter as a jest, and offered
to insure Downing's scalp for six.
pence.
Downing was not satisfied, and
finally, as he continued to hear the
suspicious noises, he fell behind
Yates some twenty or thirty PAGES,
and at favorable spot sprang sud-
denly aside and dropped into thick
patch OF huckleberry bushes. Yates,
who was singing, continued his
course, and was soon out OF sight.
Almost at the same moment two
Indians pushed aside the stalks Of a
canebrake, and looked cautiously in
the direction that Yates had taken.
Poor Downing, fearing that his own
movements had been observed, deter
mined to fire upon the savages, but
in his nervorsness--he was hardly
more than boy-he let off his gun
without taking aim.
Then he started to run. Very
soon he met Yates, who had heard
the report, and had fastened back "
see what was the matter. The enemy
was now in full view, and the two
white men ran for their lives. Yates,
who was the faster of the two, would
not leave Downing in the lurch.
The Indians gained upon them
steadily, till they came to a deep
gully. Yates cleared it easily enough,
but Downing, being pretty we'll ex-
hausted, fell short, and after striking
the farther bank, dropped to the bot
tom. The Indians meantime were
crossing the gully little farther
down, and seeing Yates making off
ahead, they took chase after him.
Downing crept along the bed Of the
gully Till 1T became 100 shallow TO con-
ceal him; and then, looking up, saw
one of the Indians returning, evident
ly to look for him. Again he took to
his heels, and the Indian followed.
All hope of escape was dying out Of
the young fellows heart when he
came to an overturned poplar-tree.
He took one side OF it and the In
dian took the other. Just then the
Indian yelled. A she-bear, it ap.
peared, was sucking her cubs in a
bed which she had made near the
roots of the tree. She greeted the
Indian with hug, and Downing did
not tarry to see how the interview
terminated. New hope put new life
into his legs, and he reached the fort
in safety, where he was welcomed by
Yates who had arrived two hours be-
fore.

great things for this machine,

is promised, the ice cycle ought GER
tainly to become popular. The new
affair is provided with runners and has
q skate-like equipment clamped to one
