WHAT A BULL DOG DID.

There were five officers from Fort Reno
and four from Fort Kearney, and seven

come out for hunt, and we had pitched
our camp on the eastern base of the Big
Horn Mountains, at the headwaters Of
Clear Fork river One of the civilians
who hailed from Boston, had broueh hi
along his bull dog, and though he was
guyed and ridiculed a hundred times over
he insisted that the dog should be taken
along on the hunt.

sarcastic remarks. II want to see him

One day six of us went off up the noun

heels as a matter of course, but as we
were out for the climb more than in ex-
pectation of sighting game, no one OBJ

sand feet above camp, and directly over
It, when big cinnamon bear which had
been snoozing alongside of a rock started
UP with a 'woofn' Before any one
had scarcely got sight of him or realized
what sort of game it was the bull dog
rushed forward and tackled him, getting
a tail-holt
'Stu-boyl Hang to him! Now's your

the bull dog got a death grip. Old CHINA

and the first move he made was down
a
sized bowlder from its bed, and a hun
dred feet down he dislodgsd a great mass
OF earth. That was the start of an ava
lanche. Earth, rocks, trees and bowlders
began to move, and strip three hundred
feet wide went booming down into the
valley. The men in camp heard and saw
it in time to escape, but it swept away
every tent we had, and filed the bed Of
the creek thirty feet deep with debris.
Not an ounce, of provisions a cooking
utensil nor a blanket was saved. Where
our camp had stood was a mass of earth
and rock fifteen feet deep. We got down
as soon as possible, and men We're sent
on TO Reno to bring back a new outfit.
NO one ever expected to see the bulldog
again. of course, but three hours later he
walked in among US as if nothing had
happened, and hadn't so much as a scratch
on him. We looked and looked, but no

4 certain part Of the press Of the coun-

propose to offer Mr.. Mckinley n single
suggestion as TO how he shall form his
cabinet or how he shall bestow
any federal office whatever. As between
Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Mckinley, The Times
most earnestly hoped for the election OF
Mr.. Mckinley. and it has reason 10 be-
lieve that it contributed somewhat. IN
an Indirect way. To- his election. But
The Times was a radical Democrat all

Democracy assert themselves effectively

whatever TO offer TO Republican admin

silver and gold would come to parity

was already so enormous. and would be

It would necessarily decline In value COM

out his proclamation I'm which he tells
us that his fight for free silver will be

the fight has only begun.
This sort Of vaporng will amount TO
nothing serious. The question Of free
coinage has been fully and fairly tried
before the American people, and they
have deliberately decided that they viii
not have it. In rendering that decision
they have not only established their own
business affairs upon permanent ioun-
dalton that viii make their wealth as
nation grow in the next decade as If

service to civilization itself. il cannot
be doubted that many Of the most
thoughtful and conservative men in the
country seriously feared calamities that
