sheen as Beasts OF Burden.

The principal beast of burden in the
inner ranges Of the Himalayas is the
mountain sheep, which will carry each
from il to % pounds of baggage and
live entirely on the heritage by the
wayside. A small flock of them ac-
companied a recent expedition of IA
nous Indian explorer for more than a
thousand miles, being at the finish
none the worse for the journey. 1t is
common in the Himalayas to load
sheep high up In the mountains with
borax and then to drive them down to
the plains, where they are shorn Of
their wool and return laden with grain
or salt. They stand the severe cold Of
the higher ranges of Tibet better than
the yak or mountain COW, and are in
deed indispensable to the primitive
needs Of transit of the jewellers there.
The Younghusband expedition has pro-
vided knowledge Of the animal which
the world lacked before, and it shows
I'D as a beast Of high merit, with an
all around utility not easy to surpa S.

SHOOT BIG BEAR IN CAVE.
Three Hunters Have Lively Expert
ence on Mount Hood.

Three Hunters Have Lively Expert
ence on Mount Hood.
Shootiong a 4OO-pound black bear In
the darkness of a cave twenty feet
in the side of Mount Hood was the
experience last week of three Portland
plumbers, says the Portland Orego-
MAN, who have returned TO the city
with the pelt
The hunters are Fred II. SCHNEIDER,
Jesse S. Hayes and Roy G. Maxwell.
It was three days out from Portland
that the party stumbled upon the
bears den. just after lunch they saw,
behind a large rock, an opening about
six feet deep. Maxwell dropped in
side, the others following. A candle
was lighted and fresh bear signs were
discovered. After going in fifteen feet
they found that the cave widened out
and pitched downward. Hayes was
in the lead.
By this time the hunters were in
darkness, except for the Pickering
light of the candle. Hayes was sure
he had heard a bear moving about, so
the trio proceeded with fear and trem-
blind. They had come all the way from
Portland to hunt bear, but to steal
along in the semi da rkness of the in
terror of Mount Hood was not on the
program as arranged.
When the party had walked 300 feet
from the entrance and were down in
the earth at least 200 feet at the same
instant all three heard the sound Of
claws on the rocky floor and saw two
green eyes glaring at them, the bear
fearing to approach nearer to the light
Hayes fired instantly. The report was
deafening, but as nitro-smokeless pow
der was used there was no suffocating
smoke. There was a half stifed roar
from the bear, and the hair Of each
man went straight up. Fearing an on
slaught, all fired a volley of three
shots each and awaited Developments
on the part Of bruin But the bear
was dead. Half the shots had been
wasted.
Not only the pelt was secured. but
twenty-five pounds Of meat as well.
Bear meat at this season, however, is
almost useless for food No attempt
was made to explore the remainder of
the cavern.

rtous Indians, and the world long point
ed to him as the inspiring spirit Of
Sioux vengeance. The truth Is that
Sitting Bull was not in the Custer fight
at all. He was looking for one of his
oungsters who had strayed away from
camp, and he did not put in an appear
ance until the historic fight was over.
Nevertheless, the tremendous and sem
sational self-advertiser was hauled all
over the United States and Europe,
lionized and paraded as the greatest
Indian general on earth.
To be pointed to as "the chief who
wiped out Clusters command" meant
something to an Indian, and Sitting
Bull showed no reluctance about reap
Ing the profits. He raised the price of
Sioux signatures from 10 cents to 81,
and nearly got writer's cramp at that.
But he discovered, like other American
heroes, that popularity Is short-lived.
His association with the palefaces had
taught him the Importance of being
earnest. Therefore he inaugurated the
famous Messiah craze among his peo-
nle. He told them, with much beating
of the tomtom, that their fOrefathers
would soon return to earth, properly
decked in war paint, and would pro-
coed to wipe out the palefaces, yank
out the barbed wire fences, burn the
government posts, drive the United
States troops into the tall timber, and
return once again to the tepees and
the watch-fres of the old regime.
During the time Sitting Bull was set
ting the stage and rehearsing his ghost
dancers for the grand climax, he was
90 much afraid to show his face at the
Indian agency that he sent one Of his
sons to gather in the bi-weekly rations
supplied by Uncle Sam. The govern
ment authorities saw trouble ahead
and. knowing the Sioux tendency to
massacre, gave orders for the arrest of
the old medicine man. Thirty-nine In
dian police and four volunteers went
to the home of the great maker Of sig
natures, and found him In the midst
of elaborate preparations for flight. He
submitted quietly to arrest, however.
until one of his sons, doubtless famil-
lar with his fathers cowardly nature.
began to jeer and jibe him.
Sitting Bull, true to his reputation,
called In a loud voice for rescue. A
general melee was precipitated, In

The seriousness Of fire losses in the
United States becomes conspicuous as
one gets down to details. Here is an
Interesting comparison: The revenue
Of the State Of Maine In 1903 was, in
round numbers, two million five hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars; the
damage done by fires in the State dur
Ing that year is estimated at five thou
sand dollars more than that sum, with
out taking into account the destruc-
ton by forest fires, which would have
added more than a million dollars on
the wrong side. Doubtless almost any
other State would make quite as bad
showing; but such figures, whereso-
ever found, are full of suggestion.

The Value of New Ideas

The recognition of the value of a
new idea in regard to business point
is leading employers to encourage criti-
cisms and suggestions from employees
in respect to the details Of the bust
ness, thus utilizing their microscopic
view rather than depending solely on
the birds'-eye view which is taken by
the manager. A friendly feeling re-
suits from this attitude, and the en-
ploye takes a deeper interest in his
work, developing his own capacity and
helping the business. To see his idea
carried out by his superiors puts new
life into him and adds new enthusiasm
to his efforts.-Success. r,

AN INDIAN FRAUD.
Sitting Bull, the Much Advertised
Sioux Warrior, Was a Coward.

Sitting Bull, the Much Advertised
Sioux WARRIOR Was a Coward.
According to Capt Jack Crawford,
formerly chief of scouts with the Unit
ed States forces in the West, and who
writes entertainingly in Munsey's Mag
azine on 1.-THE Last of the Indian
Chiefs" Sitting Bull, the once famous
Sioux and reputed a mighty warrior,
was a monumental fraud. He was a
mere medicine man, and became noto-
rious simply because, with few fol-
lowers, he refused to come in and
accept the rations offered by Uncle
Sam. This put him into the outlaw
class, and he was regarded as an Ell
envy to the government. In 1875 he
took to the hills and adopted the tao
tics of the renegade.
In the Little Big Horn fight, where
Custer the greatest Of all Indian fight
ers, fell with his gallant 300 scattered
on the field of massacre, 1t was sup
posed that Sitting Bull led the victo-
