RAN FOR OUR LIVES

from the right, where I was not look
ing, came five beautiful black-tails,
dashing swiftly down the mountain
valley, and not two hundred .-ards be-
hind them were full pack of timber
wolves in hot pursuit. We both fired
at once at the leader Down dropped
the buck, tumbling head over heels
among the rocks, and the others
scampered away at the top of their
speed. The wolves, evidently fright
ened at the loud report, scattered IN
an opposite direction, and we never
saw them afterward.
We were now sure of a good supper
of venison, and as soon as the game
was dressed and CHARTERED, each of us
shouldered half and started off down
the canyon to the left in search of
our comrades.
Never shall forget the scene that
met our eyes after we had advanced
about four hundred yards through the
timber. Even while fawing and pre-
pairing our own game, rapid and con-
tinuous firing could be heard far off
to the left, but now, upon approach
ing nearer, loud shouting and hollow
ing came to our ears, which told that
something unusual had happened or
was going on.
We dropped our meat and went for
ward at run, only to find our two
friends snugly up tree with only one
gun between them, and surrounded BY

These pugnacious little brutes are
called pecaries in Texas, where they
are quite we'll and unfavorably known,
and Of all the animals on the Amer
lean continent, they are, considering
their size, certainly the widest, most
belligerent and extremely daring little
rascals ever created. They will un-
hesitatingly attack overwhelming
numbers, and have never yet learned
the meaning of the word fear. Run
ming in squads or droves Of a few
or hundred or more they generally
attack united, and seldom yield con-
test until the last member OF the band
is unable to continue the fight.
But while the Texas specimens are
small. and exceedingly hostile. their
cousins on the farther side Of the Rio
Grande arc dozen times more dan

ODDS AND ENDS.

A cycling firm in Cologne has patent
ed new bicycle bell, in which is con-
cealed kind OF revolver, which is to-
serve the double purpose of frighten-
ing away vicious dogs and cheeky
tramps. BY merely pressing button
attached to the side of the bell ten
cartridges can be fired off in succession,
these giving such loud report that
obnoxious persons and animals would
not think twice of beating hasty re-
treat.
Machines for treating coffee, used
in Brazil, are made in the United
States, but require improvements in
view of local conditions. Thus the
coffee driers are very unsatisfactory,
and the inventor Of thoroughly ef-
fective drier would reap a fortune in
Brazil. Driers as now made use too
high a temperature, and the product
is not uniform. 1t seems the solution
OF the problem would lie in the use
of comparatively low temperatures and
of an exhausting pump.

BESlEGED BY JABALIS

During the summer of 1887, while
escorting party of surveyors, who
were engaged In locating the interna-
tional boundary line between Mexico
and our own territories of Arizona
and New Mexico, we made camp near
some water holes in wild part of
the desert, with no human habitation
within several hundred miles of us.
The country round about was rocky
and desolate. broken into coulees,
abrupt mounds and painted buttes, and
diversified here and there by stunted
cottonwood trees. petrified limbs ana
branches of thick chaparral. For a
number Of days the weather had been
pleasant, but at last drizZly rain set
in, which kept everyone closely con-
fined to camp.
While the moisture was falling thick
and fast a Mexican officer, accompan-
led by an escort, rode up and claimed
sheltc- which we were glad enough to
grant for the sake of their company.
The officer related startling story
of having encountered four large Mex
lean lions not two hours previous.
which animals seemed quite ferocious
and hungry, and actually had disput-
ed their passage through the chapar-
raj.
The men of the escort had fired and
wounded two of the animals, but the
quartet of lions finally took themselves
sullenly off and disappeared in the
timber.
He also said that the country to the
south was full Of black-tail deer. and
as for small game, such AS -eared
rabbits, sage hens and chaparral cocks.
they We're so numerous and tame that
they could almost be knocked over with
clubs.
Rain or shine. this was an opportun-
ity not to be lost and three of our
party, accompanied by one of the
Mexicans as guide, at once set out for
the hills, where the game was said to
be.
We rode on through a rocky, half
mountainous country, covered WIN
stunted trees and sharp-pointed chap
arral, and then, far awas in the dis
lance, on the summit of a bunch IF
crags, we deserted dozen objects out
lined against the sky, which appeared
to be mountain sheep of the Sierra
Madre variety.
1t was decided to stalk them. So,
after picketing the horses. we divided
our party, two Of us going up small
canyon to the left other two swing
ing around to the right, with a Mutual
agreement to keep on and finally meet
at the base of the crags to comc"re
notes, where the sheep had first been
seen.
The Mexican guide and myself were
together, and we climbed to ridge
where, peeping over, we scanned the
country for miles in every direction,
but could see no living creature. Then,

The st. Louis Republic says this (Satur-
day. morning: The car famine has become
so serious that the entire grain trade of st.
Louis is crippled and exporters find it almost
impossible to obtain cars to carry their
grain TO the seaboard. 1t would take more
than a thousand cars to fill the orders which
have been received by the railroads. Every
railroad running into the city suffers from
the shortage of equipment. There are
thousands of bushels of grain in St. Louis
elevators which was sold for shipment sew
eral months ago. but cannot be shipped be-
cause the railroads are not able to furnish
cars One of the representatives of a large
Eastern line said: The yards of the rail-
roads in nearly all of the large Eastern
cities are blockaded with loaded grain cars
which cannot be emptied because elevators
are full and vessel room cannot be obtained
to handle the enormous export business.
This keeps the cars lying idle in the East,
while ST Louis and other Western cities are
clamoring for them q"

Passenger Associations Now Avoid
the Word "AuthOrized," Thus DOdg-
ing Joint Traffic Decision.

The railroads will continue to run excur-
sions at low rates next year. Already some
of the passenger officials are announcing
months ahead excursions for next ydar, the
trunk lines being among the first The
Pennsylvania announces excursions to At
lantic City July and 20 and Aug. and II.
The Baltimore & Ohio will run excursions
to the same point July Is and % and Aug.
10 and "a, tickets to be good to return in
fifteen days, a longer period than in
previous years. The Big Four and the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton e. Dayton are planning
for low-rate excursions during next year
TO various points The Cincinnati. Hamil-
ton & Dayton did so we'll the last year in
its business to Michigan points that it will
further improve the service the coming
year. General Passenger Agent DAILY, of
the Lake Erie & Western, is already looking
mp the question of running Niagara Falls
excursions, and the early arrangements for
excursions in 1899 indicate that the business
will be more extensive than in any former
year. The Big -Four and the Cincinnati
Hamilton & Dayton will early in the COM
ing year inaugurate their Sunday 81 round
trip excursions between Indianapolis and
Cincinnati and the Pennsylvania lines are
relaxing rules in the matter of running ex-
cursons to Louisville and other points on
Sundays at a low figure. Passenger men
who have given the matter some study state
that the running of these low-rate excur-
sions does not cut into the revenue for regu-
lar travel to any great extent.
