Jim was ou bid-timer, havincome toj New Mex ico with a bull team thirty years back, and what he didn't know about fighting Apaches and hunting bears wasn worth knowing. ' "About, five years ago," lie .said, 'I bad a bunch of ratlin rvor in"Arw iunj seven ty or eighty miles north or Silver City. purinK our first two months there! wc beard from various ixirtics who had eatjtle near us hat bears were very plenli- : f ul, and that one o!4 grizaly had run three or Tour outfits, all of them having failed to kill hef,lthougb i they had shot her several iimcsr The amount of lead a grizzly will take! into his anatomy without serious re . " i m sults is simply wonder fuU I ' have seen an old fellow fairly filled with lead and still bo in fighting trim. "Well, Although we had heard considerable about bears, wc had been there some time before any ol our outfit got sight of one. At last, j one day, two of my men and a boy had gone out to look for some steers that had strayed away. Their route led them through a" rough foot-hill country, and took them farther from camp than usual. The ; boy, whe was a little jchap only about twelve yeara old, was the son of a friend, and had been brought into the tnounr tains for his health. He was riding on a mule and was a little distance ahead of the men when he suddenly ran on to a big grizzly among the scrub oak. The instant the mule sighted the bear he bolted- down the slope, to the left, throwing the boy off, and the animal started for him. The men had come up by j this time., and while one .opened fire on him with a six-shooter the other rushed in, and, stooping over, caught the Lboy up in front of htm; none tool soon, ptther, for the bear was within ten feet of the boy. ; It proved to be an old she grizzly, and the men fired at her seven or eight times without effect. ' "yhcn I heard of It that night T said I would have' that beat if it took a month, but as we were busy at that time I did not get started for nearly a week. However, I got off at last, one crisp, frosty morning this was early in November a time of the year when everything is looking its best in that country. Never been, in the mountains in the fall, oh? Well, you have missed a whole lot, then. Why, the breath of the pines and pinions up there just puts new life into a man, to say nothing of the beauty of the "scen ery and the pleasure of the open-air life. "There had been several" frosts and the gentle breeze that crept down from the! higher land " that morning rustled through the fiery scrub oak and yellow quaking asps in the pleasantpst way imaginable, vhile underfoot was a soft carpet of dry pine grass. I traveled through the foot hills fully twelve miles, en tirely past the place where the boy had "fallen off, without seeing the sign of a bear. As I had gone! along slowly it was noon by that time,, so I picketed my horse to graze, ate my lunch, ami alter an uour started back for camp. The attcr- noon had turned cloudy, with the air chilly and damp just the time for bear, as such an f afternoon would likely bring them dowu to the lower ridges to feed on acorns, of which, there was a large crop. The bear-is very fond of acorns and will wander, a long way from his sleeping place to feed on them. The little spurs or foot-hills that jutted out from the ranire were covered with: a heavy .iu r iKolinich iuhI I felt oret- tysure that I would find something; on mv wav homo. "1 had traveled nearly half thadis tance on my return trip, when, on starting down the further slope of fht nur. I saw. down a littieigraae, fmir Wars feeding in the ! brush. Thcv were so busy thrashing around mnnnir th oaks iratberinir the nuts that they had not seen roe. ;iUy. horse was an old hunter, steady as a rjek. and I knew there! was t)odan- ger of his leaving ie. A wo lare- old fellows were 1 coding- ciose tu- rrether. Slipping gently from my I horse, I let drive at one of them, aim ing for the butt of his; eai ranging back. All this was, -of course, in less time than I can-tell it. "When the bear received my shot, which was,vufortunatelyr too low, striking him in the shoulder, he evi dently" thought for a moment that tbefother bear had struck him, for he hauled off and gave it a most ter rific blow, knocking it some twenty or thirty feet. A stroke Irom a full-grown grizzly's 4aw, let me tell you, is no joke, either as a J grizzly can crush a horse's skuITat a aingie Bwccp of his iaw, The beajt seram bled to his feet ia an instarl, and I let him have it ngato as he row breaking his neck. j Highest of all in Leavening Power. USELESS FURNITURE. -1; Merchant Had to Pay a Peasant for ' Throwing a I'rince at HIrrai f Pjincc Alexander Bariatinski wa the hero of a -vcryvamusing series of ' lawsuits a short time ago, saysr Vogue. .He was pitehod out of a iifst - floor window of the housebf VI wealthy merchant at Kicfl. who Hmnd reasons, for objecting .to hia; presence. .- His fall was broken by a peasant passing under the window at th tin?i who received on his head tha- full weight of the prince's body, be-? ing nearly crushed thereby. Law suits followed. ...- One of them was that of the peaaJ ant, who sued th6 f)ri nee f6r damage) inflicteir'by falling upon hi'm.V,Tbe prince, in turn, summoned the mer chant for having thrown him out of his window. ! The judges experienced consider able difficulty in coming to a; ae1' cision in the cases: It was manifest -j that the moujik.was entitled, to dam ages for having been half crushed by the falling prince. On the other hand, it was hard to make the latter responsible for the result of his journey through the air, which he had certainly- Undertaken,, ..much against his, will. , , ' At the same time it was difficult to blame the husband for turning the prince out of his house in the drastic manner above described.: After much deliberation, the courts finally determined to make the merchant responsible for the damages, basing their decision on a ukase of Czar Paul I bearing 'the date of 179D: "Every man has a right to throw out of the window into the, street , anv useless piece of furniturevlhat may happen, to bb"ih his house, pro viding that he t&kes the precaution . to call out three times" beforehand to tlie passerby: 'Take carclVfailing which he is . liable ,to a municipal fine of twenty -five 'roubles, 'and is financially respohsiblc'"f6r any- acci dent which his negligence may have occasioned." , ..:: ,. The court held that the prince, at the time of his summary ejectment was a "useless and .superfluous piece of furniture" in1 the house of the merchant, but that the-' latter had failed before throwing . the. prince out of the. window to warn, the pedestrians below, as required by law.
