A BEAR IN A CAVE.
Two Indians Went In by the Light of q
Torch and Killed the Gane.

VOfch anu Killed the Game.
Robert II. Davis tells in Gameland
how two buck Indians of the northwest
ern coast tribes Went into IL bears den
and, by the light of IL torch, killed a big
grizzly bear.
A young law student got sight Of the
bear IL day while he was still hunt
ing. While trying to approach it the
hunter alarmed the bear, and it ran to
a 1000 foot cliff and took refuge in IL
hole there. The student climbed up 100
yards on the face of the cliff, and started
rocks down about the hole, thinking to
drive the bear out, but the bear would
not start. Then he Went to Il nearby III
dian camp and got Trinity Dick and a
Pitt river Indian, who said they would
go with the man after the bear if he
would let them take the rifle. The stu
dent let Trinity Dick take the rifle and
borrowed another for the Pitt river In-
dian.
81 waited outside" the student told
Davis, ''while the Indians went into tile
cave with Il torch. l listened for a long
time, then / heard the dull boom of two
guns away back i'll the cave somewhere.
Then all was still again for some time.
After IL bit Trinity Dick came out and
waved his hand to me, then went back

bear, which IA already loosing its hide

dian.
"The cave WAS deep, with many arms.
The Indians had followed the main
cave, disputing with each other as to
who should go first. Trinity Dick, being
the eldest, got the place of honor, while
the other followed, holding the torch
high aloft. The bear was no in the
main cave, and they Went to the end
without coming upon it. On their way
out, however, the men were confronted
by the bear ut Il distance of 90 feet.
Trinity Dick told his companion to hold
the torch steady so that the sights could
be seen plainly. When the shot was
fired, the bear pitched forward, and
then a second bullet was fired into it.
The Indians then turned and ran, load.
ing their guns as they did SO. But the
bear moved again."

Coal From China.

China has thrown down the gauntlet
to the big coal miners Of this country.
An American bark recently brought to
the Pacific coast a mixed sampIetarge
of anthracite and manufactured eoaf
mined and made in the Tonquin district
1t is intended to push the Chinese fuel Fat
prices greatly below those which Penn
sylyania and Welsh Goals of the game
character are now bringing. Experts
have pronounced the Tonauin coal bed
practically inexhaustible. The manufaor
tured coal is entirely new to American
markets. 1t is made by the Chinese ma.
tives from coal dust. The dust is mixed
with a pitohy substance and compressed
7te.egg shaped Jumps. The infamma-
u sment aids combustion, and the
coar axes very hot and very clean
fire. the imported coal is said to be OF
the finest quality, fully equal to the best
American or British GOALS, while it can
be sold profitably at price much be-
low the standard rates. Pennsylvania
and Welsh anthracite for house use are
now selling on the Pacific coast at about
$1S ton. The Tonquin coal Of the same
grade can be sold to give a good return
at SO a ton, while Tonquin anthracite
steam coal can be quoted at least 81 a
ton under the present price of Welsh
coal of that grade.

A Glass Mansion In Newport

A magnificent dwelling /, 70, built
wholly of colored glass bricks, has been
planned to be built at Newport for Pa
cific coast millionaire. The architects
are not yet permitted to disclose the
nams Of the prospective ewner,of this
unique architectural oddity, first, be-
cause he is still abroad, and, second, be-
cause certain details Of construction
have not been determined.
This Newport building, which will
be designed somewhat after the style Of
an old Pompeiian palace, is to be begun
during the coming winter. On account
Fof the elaborateness of the design and
the great care and skill required in the
construction OF the building it will not
be completed under two years.
4 The architects say that the ground
plan of the house will in some respects
resemble that of the house of Pansa, IA
miliar to readers Of 1.-THE Last Days Of
Pompeii. F" The bricks will be.of vari-
GUS sizes, shapes and oolors. and the ef-
feet will be Of an oriental richness which
will defy description.
This will be the first residence IN the
world constructed of such material and
on these lines. IT is to be built in the
form Of a square, inclosing an open
court, inside Of which a fountain will
play. By means of electric lights in
many colored globes concealed at the
source Of the fountain the water will
