right In his head.
His efforts to dislodge the stone We're
futile, and after having fired about
dozen bullets he walked a few steps
up the canyon and sat down on stone
and held his face In his hands. II
was midafternoon, and just where he
sat the sun gave his watchers light
enough to see everything that happen
ed. They had their eyes on him when
grizzly bear came slouching down the
canyon from some point where he had
a den to Investigate the firing. He
stopped within ten feet of the deserteI
and shifted at him and growled. When
Thomas looked up and saw his visitor
he did not seem In the least alarmed
On the contrary, he leaned his back tc
the wall, and the Indians heard him
talking. BY and by he got up and
offered his hand to the bear, whereupor
the grizzly growled menacingly and re
treated few feet
Thomas sat down, looking down the
canyon instead of at the bear, and the
animal lay down for period OF ten OF
fifteen minutes Then, as the mai
made no move, the grizzly advanced
again and was presently so close that
he seemed to put his nose on the mans
shoulder. Then he turned about and
started talking, and more than once
they saw him extend his hand and pal
the fierce beast on the back. There
were Eve Indians watching, and they
could have slain the bear with a volley
but the situation was such strange
one that they did not think of firing 0
shot.
The play between man and bear con
tinued for a long quarter of an hour
So long as the soldier was quiet the
bear did not seem inclined to harm
him, but by and by Thomas rose vi
and began to speak in excited tones
and to point fiercely down the canyon
At this the bear began to grOwl saw

WAX TAPERS.
Made Today as They Were In the
Seventeenth Century.

Made To-day as They We're In the
Seventeenth Century.
In the manufacture of wax matches
and the long and slender tapers which
are known as rats de cave cellar rats
the method introduced into France by
Pierre Blesm9re In the middle of the
seventeenth century is still In use
The method is practiced today In the
Carriere factory at Bourg lac Rlne,
near Paris The cords of which the
wick is composed pass into a basin of
melted wax heated by small furnace,
from which they are drawn through n
perforated plate to large wooden
drum which is turned slowly by hand.
The operation Is repeated two or three
times, the size of the hole through
which the cord passes being increased
each time. When the waxed cord has
attained the required size 1t Is wound
on large reels In skeins of 400 or 800
meters about 1900 fee0, which are
boxed and shipped to wholesalers. 1t
is also furnished In lengths of from
three to ten meters ten to thirty-three
feet, folded az often as may be re-
auired for convenient packing. These
tapers are now used chiefly by wine
merchants and by sections in lighting
church candles.
The very short and thick candles,
called veileuses, or night candles, are
composed of mixture OF wax and
stearin The molding machine differs
considerably from the apparatus used
for ordinary candles, although the prin
ciple of the operation is unchanged.
After the little candles have cooled
the attendant removes them from the
molds and conveys them to women,
who put them In tin cups, which pre-
vent the escape Of melted wax during
combustion, and pass them to other
women, who label and pack them.
Paraf1ined paper Is made simply by
drawing long rolls of paper by means
of series of cylinders through steam
heated trough containing solution of
paraffin and stearic acid and thence to
a large wooden cylinder, on which 1t Is
rolled. Scientific American.

The Eye In the Wall
copyright, 1905. by 1. D. MarshaM.l =

copyright, 1905. by I. D. MarshaM.1
Privates Thomas and Williams of
Company D, Third infantry, stationed
at Fort Pinto, were the first to dis
cover what was afterward called the
eye In the wall. One day when off
duty they went prospecting In the
mountains to the west Of the fort. In
their rambles they entered ravine or
canyon and traversed 1t for half a mile
before finding a chance to climb out
A short while before climbing out
they discovered a flaming eye In the
rocky wall on their left and about
forty feet above their heads. 1t glar-
ed and scintillated and flashed, and,
though the men were laboring under
considerable excitement over being
lost they marked the curious thing
we'll and had much to say about 1t aft
er reaching the post In safety.
During the next three months, when
men were searching every day, some
of them no doubt struck the right ra-
vine and followed it up, but none
caught sight of the eye in the wall. II
was the only thing talked about in bar
racks. 1t was soon settled that 1t was
diamond, and monstrous large one
at that, and that the value could not
be much less than half million dol
lars. The talk and the hunt for it soon
began to tell on discipline, and in a
general order the commandant forbade
any one to search further.
The discoyerers of the eye In the
wall had to abandon their search, but
they did not cease to talk and plot and
plan. A month later, as both We're on
sentry duty the same night, they de-
serted
The colonel realized that they must
be recaptured at once or their example
would be followed by others, and de-
tall was sent out and put in weeks
hard work. Then came news that the
Indians were again on the warpath,
and the detail was driven in. 1t brought
In Williams, however. He had met
with a fall and lain for three days with
a broken leg, and it was only by chance
that he had been discovered.
He said the pair of them had been
exploring rayines for a week or more
when Thomas began to act so strange
ly that his fellow deserter became
afraid of him. He continually NUT
tered and mumbled, thinking of the
diamond, and at last declared that If
the eye was found 1t should belong to
him alone. Two or three times he
seemed about to murder Williams, and
at length the latter lodged him and
was trying to make his way back to
the fort when he met with his accident.
He could give no further information
about Thomas.
After three weeks Of exploring Thom-
as found the eye in the wall. While it
was only forty or fifty feet above his
head, 1t might as well have been 400.
The side of the canyon was solid and
smooth and not to be climbed.
In this emergency Thomas attempt
ed to shoot the eye out of its bed In
the wall His firing attracted the In
dians to the spot. They could not make
out what he was firing at but the fact

thought that he, too, would much prefer
staying with Mrs. Ewing than going with

he had planned.
However. directly after luncheon Gordon
led James out into the stable and called
Aaron. Are they ready, Aaron?" inquired
the doctor.
Aaron grinned, opened a rude closet and
produced d number of objects, which James
recognized at once dummy pigeons. So
Dr. Gordon was to take him to a pigeon

turkeys charged in line of battle upon the
muddy buggy and the team being used
to it, stood their ground and snorted con-
temptuously. The country people were
either saturnine with an odd shyness, which
had something almost hostile in it. or they
were effusively hospitable, forcing apple
jack upon the two doctors. James was
much struck by the curious unconcern
shown by the relatives of the patients, and
even by the patients themselves. In only
one case, and that of child suffering from
a bad case of measles, was much interest
evinced. The majority of the patients were
the very old and middle-aged, and they
discussed and heard discussed their symp-
toms with much the same attitude as they
