Charley Gross was found last week
and taken back to the asylum. The
warden Of the asylum, 4. G. Chapman,
having learned that man filling the de-
scription Of Gross was seen in the Hepp-

in company with AL Gross, went over in
that section on the hunt for him. After
several days search they found him near
Lexington nc the home Of Mr.. Smith,

Charley in Umatilla county. Gross has
so far recovered that Mr.. Smith and fam

The CLEVER YAKAMIk.
A South American Bird Which Knows
How to Herd sheep.

A South American Bird Which Knows
How to Herd sheep.
A dog that, unaided, may be trusted
to shepherd a flock of sheep Is consid-
cred a sagacious animal, but a shepherd
bird which will drive its charges to pas
ture, protect them from prowling ami
mails, and gathering them carefully to-
gether at nightfall, bring them safely
home again, is something till recently
unheard of in this part of the world.
Such a bird is the yakamik of South
America. The settler in Venezuela and
British Guiana needs 10 dog to care for
his sheep and poultry. He has an eff
cient guardian in the shape of a crane
which he, or an Indian for him, trains to
obey the voice of its master.
To the are of this bird, says the
Youths Companion, he intrusts his
sheep, his ducks and other poultry, and
sees them depart to their feeding
grounds secure in the knowledge that
the crane will bring them all back safe
ly. Woe to the unlucky animal that,
prowling about to steal, is detected by
the yigilant yakamik. The bird saw
agely attacks the marauder with wing
and beak, and forces it to retreat in
haste. A dog is no match for the crane.
AT nightfall the bird returns with its
flock, never losing the way, no matter
how far it may wander, for its sense of
location is very acute. Arrived at home,
il roosts upon a tree or shed near its
charges, to be ready to resume its super
vision of them when they are let out
again in the morning.
The bird is as affectionate as it is
trustworthy. 1t will follow its master
about, capering with delight and show
ing it's appreciation of his caresses by
the most absurd movements.
Mr.. Carter Beard, in an article in the
Popular Science News, says that the
yakamik is SO jealous of other house
hold pets that when it appears at meal
times it will not take its own food un-
til it has driven off every cat and dog
and secured full possession for itself.
1t can bear no rival in its masters
favor, and will not even tolerate the ne
gro walters unless it knows them welk

A HAWK.
Clever Vancouver by Pigeons Which
Fooled the Bird of Prey.

Clever Maneuver by Pigeons Which
Fooled the Bird of Prey.
The Southern Sportsman told recent
ly about a flock of pigeons that meas
ured brains with a hawk and came out
on top in the contest. FL. S. Edwards
owned flock of pigeons which n day
were cut off from their cote by a large
hawk. The pigeons knew that if tho
hawk once got above them, n at least
of their number would go to make the
hawk a meal, and so up they few in
circles, perhaps hoping to go higher
than the hawk. In the rising game they
were no match for the hawk. The lat
ter kept under the pigeons, and leisurely
followed their laborious movements.
Then came a curious and unexpected
sight to Mr.. Edwards. Every pigeon
closed its wings, when they appeared to
be the size of sparrows, and down they
came past the hawk at a terrific rate.
That astonished the hawk. 1t actually
lodged the dropping birds, and missed
half a dozen wing strokes before 1t got
in full chase of them When it got down
to the barnyard not a pigeon was in
sight-some were'in the cote, some in
the porch, two in the wellhouse, and one
was in the kitchen: The hawk had been
outwitted completely. It is a question
how the pigeons managedto check their
fall, as they did not slacken up till they
about 16 or 20 feet above the
ground, when they scattered in all d.
rections to escape the hawk.

with sticks or the iron ramrods of their
muskets. The prisoners passed in sim
gle file between them under a shower of
blows. Father Jogues remembered that
it was the eve of the feast OF the As
sumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
IT had thought ali along" he says,
that the day of this great joy of
heaven would be for US a day OF sor-
row, and [ gave thanks because of it
to my Savior Jesus, since the joys of
heaven are bought only by sharing in
his sufferings."
Rene fell beneath the heavy blows,
and it was necessary to cary him to the
platform in the village, where the pub
lie torture was to be inflicted. He was
SO bruised and covered with blood that
Father Jogues declared that there was
no white spots left ON him except the
whites of the eyes.
On the platform an old Indian sor
cerer obliged a captive Christian
woman to cut off Father Jogues' left
thumb. The prisoners, after day of
bitter torments, passed the night, tied
hand and foot, on the ground. Then
children were turned loose to make
their apprenticeship in cruelty.
SUFFERED MANY TORTURES.
They were dragged from village to
sufferings everywhere. In Tfonnonto-
guen they met four new Huron pr1s-
oners, whom Father Jogues found
means to instruct and baptize- before
they were put to death. Rene's habit
of constant prayer, and especially his
teaching the children the sign of the
cross, which the Indians had learned
to hate, had caused some among them
to seek the opportunity of killing him.
He had gone ON September 20, the
feast of st. Michael Archangel, with
Father Jogues to a wooded hill near the
village that they might pray in peace.
Two young men came and ordered them
to return to their cabin.

Jogues relates, "of what was to hap

MURDER OF GoUPIL.
They turned their steps, toward the
village, reciting the rosary as they
went. They had finished the fourth
decade when they came TO the gate, the
two savages following them. One of
these suddenly drew toIna1aWk from
beneath his garments and struck Rene
a violent blow on the head. He fell
half dead, with his face to the ground,
uttering the name of Jesus. Father
Jogues, who, on his knees awaited a
like fatal blow, was told to rise, that
he should not then be killed. He gave
the last absolution TO the still breathing
Rene, and with tears pressed him to
his heart. The savages tore him away
and two more blows of the tomahawk
made sure their ghast1y work.
Some months later Father Jogues,
after long search, found some of the
bones of his murdered comrade, includ-
ing the skull, which had almost been
cut in two by the blows with the TOM
ahawk. He buried these bones near
the junction of the two ravines under a
large rock, which today is one of the
notable features Of the shrine.
