ago a Pluto Indian, armed with only Q
knife, met and overcome one of these
monsters. The Indian was living nj
last accounts, but the bear was dead.
Mustang is the Indians name. He
and another Piute were out in a ire
mendously wild region of the Hetch-
Hetchy valley and when descending
the bed of a gorge they almost ran into
the jaws of the largest grizzly they had
yer seen. Mustang and his companion
fired their rifles at the brute, but he
two shots produced no more effect N
arresting the bears charge than would
the throwing of a pebble against the
wind stop a cyclone. Mustang was a
step in advance of his companion and
bruin reached him first, knocking his
gun n way and him the other. The
companion climbed a tree. Mustang
plunged his knife to the handle into the
shaggy monster, slashed 1t again and
again across his rough hide, ripped and
cut until blood poured from a dozen
gashes in the herculean carcass; then
he fell under a crushing blow from one

on the rocks with the bear tearing
strips of hide from his back and chew
ing his arms and shoulders to a pulp.
Meantime Mustangs friend was vain
ly trying to get his rife into working
order. 1t had been injured when he
climbed the tree. From morning till
night this condition lasted. The bear
soon left the mangled remains Of Mus
tang and numbered in red vengeance
over to the tree where perched the
other Indian. After trying In vain to
climb he limped back to Mustang, but
before he could tear the man to pieces
the Indian, who was by no means dead
yet, drove the knife into his enemy's
vitals. The bear staggered off a few
yards and then, overcome by the fear
of death which comes instinctively to
all animals, staggered down the gorge,
but fell for good in a few minutes. As
sistance soon reached Mustang, who
was cared for by cunning medicine
men of his own race.

DESTRUCTION OF ARCH ROCK,
SAN FRANCISCO BAY.
Grim, Gray and Picturesque Pinnacle
a Terror to the Mariner Has Been a
Menace to Navigation Ever Since
the Days of 40.

Shag rock No. / and Shag rock No. 2
in San Francisco having been disposed
of, contractors are now busily engaged
in work preliminary to the demolition
of the still more famous Arch rock in
the same maritime th%oroughfare. The
forty-niner cannot recall the day when
this picturesque enace to navigation
was not mathematical by the sailor
man. Many a time its destruction has
been suggested, and its demolition
would have been accomplished
long ago but for the sentimental oppo-
sition of a few veteran Californians
who hated to see their ~odd-looking old
friend disappear forever. Residents of
Sausalito have always been particular
ly averse to its destruction, their cry
always being that it was one of the
sights of the bay. Eventually contin-
ued agitation by pilots and others in
terested in shipping bore fruit, and now
Arch rock must follow in the way of
the two others.
In early days of California's history 1t
was a favorite amusement for young
men to wait for an unusually low tide
and then pull a boat through the arch.
So far as is known the first time this
feat was accomplished was in 1857,
when Captain Frank Murphy, one of
the best known pilots of his day, rowed
a small boat through. For a few years
the daring trip was occasionally made
or attempted, but eventually a couple
of young fellows, in trying to do the
trick, were dashed against the arch by
the heavy swell. The boat was smash
ed and the young men lost their lives.
Since that time rowboats have given
Arch rock a wide berth.
Frank Boyd, a noted pilot of the Cali
fornia coast, voiced the opinion of all
men In his profession when he called
Arch rock a dangerous spot, and said
1t should have been blown up long ago.
when they come to survey that spot"
he said, they will find every Inch of
ground in the vicinity of Arch rock
covered with anchors and chains.

Decrease of Drunkenness.

In an address before the railroad
branch of the Y. M. G. A. OF New
York City, Chauncey NJ. Depew made
a statement rs to the decrease of
drunkenness among railroad men that
is worth repeating, coming from SO
high an authority. Twenty veras ago.,
he said, when there were about Is, 900
men In the New York Central service,
the average proportion of men DIS
charged for drunkenness within a GER
tain period was at least 30 per tent.
Now, with 30, 900 men employed by the
company, not n per cen is dropped
from the service for that cause.

Foods vary SO greatly as to render 1t
difficult for a farmer to select with a
knowledge of the kinds which should
be used. Only certain proportions OF
all foods are digestible, but the indi-
gestible portions are valuable in the
manure heap. Bran at $12 per ton is
worth the price, even If applied to the
crops direct, but when used as food it
assists to balance the ration by supply
ing mineral matter, thus promoting
growth of che animal while adding
greatly to the value OF the manure.

Good cider differs greatly from that
made OF inferior apples. Instead of
using half-rotten apples select those
that are perfect and fully ripe. When
the cider is running from the press
strain it thoroughly. Use lard barrels,
first cleaning the lard from the barrel,
but should a little adhere to the sides
it will be an advantage. Keep the
barrel in a cool place and allow no air
to enter other than that which forces
in during the drawing at the spigot or
faucet.
