Mr.. Ashford was long enough
in Hawaii to convince the peo-
pie that he can tell the differ
ence between ga 'awk han a
'au saw" and that he under
stands full well the value of
silence. He has about as
much intention of heading a
flibustering expedition as he
has of returning here and
standing as a candidate for
office. c. w. is a little Joker
and the interview with the re-
porter in Frisco was one of his
Jokes. When Mr.. Ashford
left here, his main thought
was to do something in the
behalf of his brother. The
people here who know him
will not believe that flibus-
tering expedition IS in the line
of assistance to that person.
Some time ago, we pur-
chased a lot of European wire
and Immediately afterward
some parties circulated a re-
port that the quality had been
affected by some unknown
cause and that it was not Up
to the standard of the Aus-
eyjcam product. We had a half
dozen coils of the wire tested
at the Iron Works and it
showed a tensile strength of
27oo pounds. When this re-
port was published in this
column, the wire was sought
after by plantation managers
and individuals from Niihau to
Hawaii. The other day, TO OBJ
lige a skeptic, we ordered a
hundred coils of American
wire from the Coast and as
it reached the store, we sent
a half dozen coils to the foun-
dry to have it tested. The
result showed a tensile
strength of 768 pounds or
about 1000 less than the Eu-
ropean article. We violate no
confidence when we tell you
that this American wire will
not be sold by us. We have
an abundance of the European
article and can supply all sizes
and in any quantity. This wire
with the steel stays and gal
vanized washers comprise the
material necessary to use in
making the celebrated Jones
Locked Fence than which no
stronger, cheaper or better
fence was ever made.

They are absolutely safe, be- |
cause there is no possible way |
by which they can explode; |
they are free from unpleasant
odors, because they are made
on the most approved plans;
they are economical, because
directly you are through

HOW TO KILL A GRIZZLY BEAR.
The Only Safe Way Is to First Catch Your
Bear. Then Cut His Throat.

1.-The only safe way to kill grizzly
bear is to cut his throat, said an old
forty miner who has come back to Louis
Vile to end his days. Il learned this
when | took that trip from Sacramento to
Lower California with a herd of cattle
and only a greaser and myself to drive
em.
| 1--WE had been out for three days. On
the morning of the third day, just about
dawn, we were awakened by the believing
of frightened cattle. We expected SIAM
pede, and both of US jumped to our feet
and on our horses. Then we began to ride
around tho cattle to keep them from
breaking and running. 1t didn't take us
long to discover the cause of the cattle
fright About SOC yards distant was big
grizzly with his head down making for our
camp The Mexican saw him the same
time did
Il unslung my gun and held it in read
mess to shoot as soon as bruin was in
range The Mexican held up his hand
warningly and yelled, Waltz He took
his lasso off the horn of his saddle, and
digging his spurs into the sides of his
pony rode down upon the bear as fast as
he could CO. He passed the bear, and
when 10 feet behind him wheeled his
horse Then, whirling his lasso about his
head, he let fly at the running bear. The
lasso settled nicely over one of the lifted
feet The trained pony lifted himself on his
launches, and the lasso frightened his grip
Oh the bears leg. This angered the bear,
and he turned with growl and started
directly toward the Mexican, who rode
toward little clump of trees just north
of the camp. He kept drawing in the lasso
and expected to tighten it and drag the
bear but bruin was fast upon his feet and
kept in easy distance of the greaser.
1.-The horseman rode behind one of the
trees and jumped from his horse. Bruin
started after him and reached around the
tree to get him. The willy greasor began
to jump about from side to side of the tree,
with the bear always following but never
getting any closer than just opposite The
result was that bruin was finally wrapped
tightly about with the lasso and was tied
to the tree. When the greaser got the bear
liz this position, he held on to the end of
the lasso in his hand, and showing his
teeth in "a broad grin looked Mt me. Reach
ing down into his greasy sash, he pulled
out a long, sharp knife and made one
slash across the bears throat. That did
him. Louisville Courier Journal.

Sarsaparilla and other medicines l saw
advertised in the papers, giving them all

highly spoken of by persons whose integ

useless in my case, and l kept growing
steadily worse. / became at last con-
