His companions left him, but -he was too stubborn to yield, though hel manifested much less anxiety for a slide than he had previously shown. ' When" the wys left him he said:' "Step kinder high, now. and don't jostle things any. There ain't ho use bringing on a slip for tbe Tun of the things -V??? '-' --V- , The boys. got; out of the way as soon as possible, and were jost con gratnlating -themselves as, well as laughing over the change in Far bush's . attitude when the earth trembled, and a frightful ror,r burst on their ears. " ' : : 1 '.' J " ' "She's coming now!" one of them exclaimed, ' and from where they stood they could see tbe whole per formance. ' lc was s grand - and awful seette. The mountain itself appeared to -collapse and dissolve. Objects generally regarded as sub stantial, tbe mighty boulders - and rook-rooted . trees: apparently l as sumed a liquid iorm, and, mingling with tbe ' snows, appeared like a majestic, river in full. .sweep, jits waves dashing high in the air. The sound , wau as a tempest, and the very earth trembled. Neither of the men spoke until the mischief had all been done, and then one of tham managed to. find voice to say: f'Tbat was old; John's slide, and no mistake. Let's go and see how he weatnered u." ,., '.; r Tbey; retraced- their s,teps far enough to convince themselves that the cabin had disappeared, Tbe whole scene had changed. r Where tbe shelf had been .built with such care, nothing "was now rata seen but a gopged, opt place that looked had been: ahunted Satisfied that Fur- true. Here we have Gen. Lee's address to his troops,ad vising them to go home, ' Jim Dalton got here this morning with bis horse and gun, and says - our infantry boys will be along about tomorrow." The old . man looked piteously fromjone to another, aa though be seeching them - to . contradict the overwhelming, stidingi.-.Uobody spokeIben he tooknp Gen-Lee's address and read it carefully through twice. 'He laid ' it down with a mighty sigh, and taking' up his hat to go, said: : i ts ?W3ll, roebbe Utn'xl Lee knows best - Mebbe Its best lo giveem another try. ,Jt doesn't .; do; fef Christians to be bard and un for given.

Until within the last few days there have been very few slides this winter, though the snow has been pretty heavy. One reason is that there, have been only a few warm, days, and another is that not many men have been moving aronnd in the canons. The sad experience of last -winter, when several nien who insisted on remaining in their cabins lost' their lives, caused the settlers to be a little careful this year, but a good many of them are still tempting their fate. ' I About four miles up the big Canon John Furbush and two com panions' have been living in a cabin built, i especially to shed off aval anches. The boys dug a hole in the earth and made a sort of shelf, on which they built the hut. Fur bush calculated that when the slide came it would jump the ouse and leave it and its inmates -nlf safe. 11 U faith tnjthe scheme was great: bush was buried at the bottom of the canyon, the men made . their way down as hastily as possible, and to their surprise found the cabin Only about half covered by the snow. It had hung together in marvelous fashion, and the question now was whether the -old man in side was dead or alive. Digging the snow and earth away with such improvised imple ments as they; could find, they soon came to the-door and daa their way in. The cabin was about half full of snow ami dirt, and : over in the corner tbey found Fftrbush just re turning to consciousness from the effects of, 'severe . cpntusions. At first he paid little .attention, to his rescuers, who feared; that 'the old fellow was fatally hurt, but at last when they got him out be laughed solemnly and said; ('The thing sagged, just asl alius feared it would. .

Tbe building was Btoutly I HE made, the uprights being of hewn timber, and the roof, which slanted down the canon and came at Its highest point up even with the rocks and ' earth above, was i as smooth as John could make it.
