famous region Of northwestern Neva-
da, commemorate really remarkable
occurrence.
The engine stands in a space cut Off
from the rest of the mill by tight
partition. The room is made to con-
form nearly to the shape of the en-
CINE, the wall being about eight feet
from it on all sides, except where the
belt runs down into the fly-wheel pit.
There the partition is at least twenty
feet from the rim of the fly-wheel, and
the great belt or band which carries
the power into the mill comes in
through a hole six feet up in the wall,
and slants down to the bottom Of the
1ly-wheel about the same distance be-
low the floor.
Thus in order to pass from one side
OF the room to the other at this end
it is necessary either to jump over the
belt next to the fiy-wheel. or to crawl
under it next to the wall. The fly
wheel is an immense affair sixteen feet
in diameter, weighing twelve tons, and
wide enough on the face for the thirty
siX-inch belt to run. The engine makes
more than a hundred revolutions per
minute, and this belt whizzes down
through the floor toward the hy-wheel
in a way to make one dizzy. The en-
CINE itself is kept in a highly-polished
condition by the unremitting atten-
tons of the engineer, who speaks Of it
as "Old Alice" and who has painted
in rri1 LOT
nished frame N memory of little
daughter who died.
There is no direct means OF commu-
rication between the mill and the en-
CINE room, as the latter has only one
door, and that opens from the outside.
At the time OF the occurrence | am
about to relate, this door had on 1t
very complicated spring lock, and
every time the door slammed the lock
caught and, according to the engineer,
'it took ten minutes work and the
key to get it open again" The mill
runs continuously, being lighted at
night by small electric-plant in the
building, and two big arc lamps hang
directly over the engine.
About ten O'Clock on the night of the
END day of March, 1892, James Rus
sell (the night engineer) was sitting in
chair at one side OF the room read
ing an old newspaper. while his train
ed ear followed every stroke of the
engine, and instantly detected the al
tered sound when an oiier stopped
feeding or screw worked loose. "Old
Alice" ran as moothly and regularly
as watch, and the engineer grew so
absorbed in his paper that he did not
at first look UP when he heard the
door swing open and then shut with
a snap. Soon, however, the indescrib-
able feeling that something alive is
near caused him to lift his head i.ad
look about the room There, just in
front of the door, blinking like an owl
in the glare of the electric lights, and

stood great, dingy browny-black
beast that looked to the excited en-
gineer as big as COW. The engineer
knew at once that his visitor was
bear, and a grizzly at that, and was
correspondingly scared. The miners
had told him many tales of the cum
ming and ferocity of these animals, and
he knew that few savage old fellows
still fingered in the mountains near
by.
This particular bear had just walked
up from his long winters sleep, and
was hungry. or he would not have
been so bold. 1t is probable that in
proWling about in search OF food he
had come close to the mill, and had

SECRETARY GAGE

Writes 9 Letter to Senator Burrows ON the
Proposed Distilled Spirits Legislation.
WASHINGTON, July Under date of
June 10 Secretary Gage addressed the
following letter to Senator Burrows con-
corning the proposed tax on distilled
spirits:
Hon. ]. G. Burrows, United States Senate:
SIR-Your letter of the 18th instant relative
to the legislative proposition to secure in
creased revenue by reducing the rate Of tax on
distilled spirits has been received. In reply,
you are informed that do not think it adviS-
able to endanger the passage of the measure by
appending to it provision shortening the
period during which the spirits may remain in
the bonded warehouse on the distillery premises.
The allusion in my letter to which you refer re-
lating to the shortening of this bonded period
was merely in the nature Of a suggestion and
not a recommendation. Ny attention had Just
been called to this matter in connection with
the proposition to reduce the tax, and con-
sidered it proper that the congress should have
all the facts that were in my possession The
question as to the length Of the bonded period
is sufficiently complex to be separate meas
ure. See joint resolution of March e. 1873 co
stat p. 269l and act of May %, 1880 (2i stat. p.
145), where this question is considered without
reference to any raC@ of tax. See. also, on the
other hand. the acts of June 9, 1872 az stat.
p. 23S), fixing the rate of tax at 40 cents per
gallon, and the oct of March 3, 1870 Us stat. p.
339), establishing the tax rate at 30 cents per
gallon In neither OF these last two named acts,
which have produced nearly all the revenue de-
rived from distilled spirits. is there any pro-
vision modifying the length of the bonded
period.
would state finally that the two questions
are separate; the question Of reduction Of the
rate OF tax is OF transcendent importance, and
I think that IL the Introduction Of the PROPOSE
ton to change the bonded period. and its consid-
Grafton in connection with fixing the tax rate,
seriously complexities or imperils the needfuI
legislation with reference to the revenue, that
1t should be eliminated from the question.
Respectfully yours,
L J. GAGE, Secretary.
