Bill Goat's Chance.

I'VE quietly saddled our mounts and
were not long in arriving at the bear trap
Old Bruin was in a dangerous temper and
no mistake. His roars were like those or
an enraged bull and he shook the big sixty
pound steel trap as though IT weighed no
more than a feather. and tugged violently
at the chain in an endeavor to get to us.
II put my boy up tree, where he was
safe in case the bear could break away,
the body of grizzly being too heavy to
admit OF his climbing tree. then turned
TO Bill Goat with the remark: Bill, here's
your hundred. and there's your bear. Go
get him.
"Bill's eyes rolled so that only the whites
OF them showed at so terrifying prospect.
But despite the fear that was on him, after
spotting a friendly tree. he pulled himself
together with show of courage and walked
gingerly around the bear with a view to
approaching him from the rear He got
within probably twenty yards OF bruin
when the swapping Of twig attracted tho
the bears attention. There was a deafen-
ing roar, and the bear made a mighty lunge

"He was a very large and strong speci-

made him all the more dangerous. He

trapped, and administer him swift kick
His tongue now having become very much
loosened he approached others of the party
always with a proposal to bet his months

his talk and proposition on me, and to
put a quietus on him ! remarked that l
wouldn't bet $50, but would double the
amount and make him present of 1t when
saw him kick the bear.
THE next morning Hepphnger came into
camp in great excitement with the an
nouncement that he had busting big

formed us that the bear was only caught
by two toes. and was a very ugly Gus

the humiliation in store for him.

truth is that a radical change over that

1904 A few years ago we considered Gil
braltar our chief defense, knowing that we
could call for the English troops to come
over In case of an outbreak and have
strong force land within few hours. This
is prevented now by that agreement. You
may remember how It arose. The French
who had hampered the English-in the ad-
ministration Of Egypt, made an agreement
to give them a free hand there If they, In
return would allow France TO have free
hand in Morocco. Great Britain then said
that France ought to assist I'm the admins
trative, economic, financial and military
reforms in Morocco. and practically agreed
TO keep its hands Off. After that It would
not have dared send troops across from Gil
braltar, for the French would have con-
sidered such an act a violation of the
spirit OF the agreement and might have
resisted H. When l returned from my cap

George White and he told me he would
have been powerless to have defended Tan

also noticed that the English government

Crazy Mule and Ugly Negro.

zone of the unfailing sources of amuse-
ment on the occasion of the killing of a
bear was to put the skin OF the animal on
a little white mule, which was used as a
pack animal. Everyone who has hunted
big game knows that il is difficult to get
a horse or mule within smelling distance Of
a bear. The mule, of course had to be
bllndfolded and his nostrils held during
this operation. The horse wrangler, who
was an expert broncho buster. would then
get aboard him. AS usual this amusement
was proposed on this occasion. With much
difficulty the skin was at last strapped on
and Heppfnger got astrlde him. When he
was turned loose he was a combinR ton
OF jumping Jack and whirlisig. His rider
lasted about fifteen seconds.
During this very laughable incident
Justice Brewer was alone with the negro,
who, while we were extricating the horse
wrangler from, the brush and chasing the
mule, had walked up to him and rubbed
his bloody fingers on Justice Brewers
leggins.
Justice Brewer said, YOU black scoun-
drel, what do you mean? Bill replied that
II he said anything more he would wipe
his hands upon his face. The Justice said
nothing more.

knew of II. Justice Brewer said nothing
to me, as was host, probably fearing the
consequences to the negro, and what might
follow. He looked upon the negro as
wholly irresponsible and was willing to
let the matter drop for the time being at
least. He did connde in Judge Davis but
enjoined secrecy upon him.

"In addition to this" continued Mr.. Per-
dicaris, the conference provided that there
may be tax on the buildings in the towns
and cities throughout the empire, and also
that from 1900 to $500 policemen are to
be assigned to the eight coast towns, and
that they shall be commanded by sixteen
or seventeen French or Spanish officers"
''Will that make Morocco safe for for

II think not" replied Mr.. Perdcarls.
Before I was captured by Raisul 1

only old flint lock guns and that they could

soldiers, who are armed with modern rifles.
When waJ taken into the mountains it

5000 soldiers equipped with modern guns.
Against a force like that the whole 2,5C0
policemen would be of little effect, and, IL
they were scattered among eight towns,
hundreds of miles apart, one can easily see
that they would be inadequate to any kind

"what has been the position Of France
In regard to Morocco?"
"It has for years been looking upon It
with greedy eyes, and that not only as a
commercial but as military proposition.
Among the best OF the French soldiers are
the Berbers of Algeria. There are many Of

What plans had they made TO get that

They intended to prefer loans and in con-
