RFCOLLECT|ONS OF THE EDITOR
Some Experiences OF Other
days thatLinoeri In the Nj e mory
compile

A long while ago-more than twenty
years before was to have been crushed
into smithereens by a gang Of grafters
who couldn't crush soap bubble-lswas
attracted by the salt craze in Kansas.
I went down into that country to take
a government claim filled with salt wells.
There was nothing to it. One fellow
came out fairly we'll, he sunk wells all
over his quarter, and as they wouldn't
yield salt, he split them up and sold them
to the farmers as postholes. Like the
old woman with the eggs, he lost little
on each one, but had SO many that he
came out all right.
MY salt we'll went funk, SO I thought
I might as we'll continue my vacation
before taking up my years work as
principal of the public schools of an
Iowa town.
Among the towns visited was one in
southern Iowa with two newspapers.
One of the editors was sick-thought
he had consumption. He wanted to go
away and after I'd been with him a
week, he vamoosed. I had to wire him
to get him back in time to go to my
school work.
We'll it was a mining town with the
mines closed. The town was dead
people had got so slow they couldn't
catch cold.
So the editors and I thought we would
wake things up, and the way we lam
basted each other suggested duels. Our
officers were so located that our back
doors were abutting property-H
Mark Twain's and Ike Marvels down
in Connecticut town.
What about them? Why Mark thought
it would be we'll to have his joking
neighbor introduce him before a New
York audience. So Marvel went over
and told the people what a grand
character Twain was. AS one thing
and another he loved, honored, revered,
respected, and emulated him, but as a
neighbor and a man whose back yard
was next TO MS melon pdtch he WdIcneu
him.
Where am l at-yes, yes, our offices
were on what the real estate men call
AUDITING property, and the people of
the town looked for something terrible
when we came into contact. One eve
ming my brother quill-pusher was seen
coming up our back stairs. The news
flashed over town like the news of inter-
national military operations, and soon
we heard the tramp of many feet up
the stair. I started to bolt the door but
it was to late, the excited crowd rushed
in and interrupted our-our social game
of penoch1e.

Snake FOUGHT Grizzly

Bear stories this year in Idaho have
been of Infinite Variety said big
mining engineer who has just arrived
in Washington. "The best one have
heard was told by Bergman L. Jacobs,
a well known ranchman of Fremont
county, who was in Pocatello the other
day. Jacobs, like all other ranchmen
in that neck of the woods. enjoys the
sport of deer hunting, and never. lets
a fall pass without indulging in his
liking for big game shooting. His
ranch is only a days ride from the
heart of the Teton forest reserve, the
famous jackson Hole country. This is
the story as Jacobs told it:
I was hunting deer and had laid
my gun on a bowlder while examined
some fresh tracks on the mountain side.
Hearing slight noise behind me I
looked up and saw a big grizzly bear
within few feet of me and intently
Watching my movements. A glance
showed me he was between me and
my rifle. AS Strengthened up the an
imal began to move in my direction.
There was neither time nor opportunity
to get out of reach. AS he kept on

him hard enough with a rock to turn
him aside until could reach the riff.

size lay almost at my feet. made a
quick grab at it. 1t moved in my hand,
and in an instant I saw it was rat

were not. I proceeded to throw
it from me without loss of time.
As it happened, I threw it di-
rectly in the face of the advancing
bear The bear threw up it's head
and made a vicious snap or two at
the snake, but missed. BY this time
the snake was waking up. Like
flash it struck twice at the bear Each
time 1t buried its fangs in one Of the
bears eyes. With roar the bear
whirled. AS it turned the snake slipped
to the other side of the bears head and
struck it in the other eye. 1t was all
over in an instant The snake fell to
the ground and quickly disappeared
among the rocks. The maddened bear
rolled on the ground, arose to it's feet
and charged aimlessly about. had no
difficulty in keeping out of its way
The sound of its own movements
drowned the noise of my steps. At
favorable moment I reached the rifle,
and I'm less than ten seconds there
was a very dead bear in the neigh
borhood. I never heard of sanother

fronted by two dangerous foes, was
