' On thetenth or eleventh day of my stay I;
leftcampatanearlyzhwr lathe morning
loaded for beer. I followed the valley up
for half a mile, and then turned into a
ravine which was the bed of a Geek during
the melting ‘of the shows. It ascended very
-gradually,audIhad been folio j‘ ,it'for

at it I wondered if it was not the bonnet
some savage beast. I'M moved m.m
500 feet when a. grizzly, which had been lye:

. . .. , Y
rose before me. I was locking foxhis kind,‘:
but his. appearance was so snddenmidhe
showed tight so quickly that. my bm’twasj
beating altogether too fast as IWup'for,
'a shot. It had to be a snap shot, for not
more than thirty feet separated us. Mine'
was a single barrelcd rifle, and I also had a?
knife and revolver. The bullet struck bruin’
in the left shoulder, and he spun around a
dozen times like a top. I was reloading’.
when he got ready to form a closer acquaint-‘1
3ones. He had worked up the ravine and I,
had worked down. and we were now‘loo feet:
apart. I knew I could not finish loading
beforehe reachedme, and'there waeno other ,
way but tot-an for it and hope that he was
too seriously wounded to overtakene.
InthosedaysIcould run likea'horse. and
I was accustomed to all sorts of ground, but
;I hadn’t made ten jumps on this occasion be-'
fore my foot slipped ouia stone and vaent
down with a crash. Old grizzly was within
twenty feet of me when I got up, and I
'pitched my rifle into his face as I took a, new
start. The roar he uttered lifted me a foot
high, and I made a dozen extraordinary leaps,
:but it wasn’t a minute before I realized that
he was holding his ground, if not gaininga
jlittle. No man can gum how far a wounded
gaud enraged beast will pursue him. I be-
lieve I could have kept clear of this down to
‘the‘ mouth of the ravine, but if he pursued
me far enough he would be certain to over-
take me. I made up my mind as I ran that
I would try the hole in the clid. It was
large enough for me to enter, and might be
large enough for the bear, but once inside I
could turn and use my revolver. Old grizzly
was hardly more than a rod behind me when
I plunged into the hole and scrambled ahead
on hands and knees. After going in about
ten feet the hole turned to the left and nar-
rowed considerably, and seven or eight feet
'furtheronlcameto the end. As I did so
my hand encountered something soft and
furry, and there was a hiss and a spit that
told me that akittcn panther was present. I
felt all around me in the black darkness, but
the kitten was the only living object. He
was a little fellow, not more than 4 or 6
weeks old, but ready to bite and scratch if
myfingers touched him. ' -‘
The grizzly did not follow at once into the
cave. It was five minutes beforeI hearde
working his way in, and by this time I had
recovered my breath and nerve. I was cer-
tain he could not reach me within six feet,
and was rather glad to hear him wheezing
and snorting as he pulled himself along. By
and by I saw his eyes shine. He could come
no further. His claws dug at the rocks and
his roars of rage deafened me, but I was safe.
It was now my turn, and I gave him two
shots from the revolver which caused him to
redouble his roars of rage. For about ten
minutes I felt very queer over the situation,
but all of a sudden it struck me that I had
gained nothing by the change. In place of
being a fugitive I was a prisoner. The bear
showed no disposition to retreat and I now
became aware of the fact that the cave had
a rank smell, and that the body of thebear
Eprevented the fresh air from entering. I felt
that I must drive him out, and 1 did a very
"foolish thing. I edged nearer to him and
;.put four bullets into his head, and after a
long drawnmoauhe cMcd‘his eyes saddled.
VI congratulated myself for a manenfibut
fthen it dawned upon me that I had'choked
'up the passage to liberty with the carcass of
:abearweig atleast600pounds. I
,thought I might able to push it before me,
but when I made the attempt I could not stir
'it an inch. I had done an idiotic thing, and
there was no way to repair the error.
I was wondering how I should get out of
1 it, when I heard the scream of another ani-
§mal at the entrance of the cave. and in a mo-
ment more realized that the mother of the
;oub panther had arrived. It was well for me
that the body of the bear blocked - the en-
trance. The panther went wfld with fury
when her kitten began to call. She bit and
clawed at the bear. and by a great effort
puneu It neck a few mouse. .Idad not the
space been so contracted she could probably;
have drawn it out, but she did not haveafair
show to use her strength. Her eyes looked
at me over the body of the bear, and if one
.ever saw fury it was in thme orbs. I gave
her a couple of shots, hoping to drive her OR.
I think I wounded her in the head, for she‘
set up a terrible screaming and ran out, but
in two or three minutes she was back again
with more fury than ever. I now pushed her
kitten forward, hoping she would be appeased
at its restoration. It climbed over the bear
and reached her, and she took it in her
mouth and backed out. Iwas a pleased man
over this result, for the cave was as hot as an
oven, smelled powerfuhy stout of panthersg
and the powder smoke almost stifled me. Be,
ing a bit rattled had brought . on an intense
thirst, defelt that I hadgttodosome—
thing pretty soon or suffocate. Pretty soon
I crept forward and began pushing it the big
carcass. but had not been engaged over two,
or three minutes when the panther returned.
She had carried her kitten to spines of,
safety, and was new boat on revenge. She;
realisedthat the carcass must be got out of
.thewa'ybefore she could come at me,aud
.had I‘not seized the grizzly bythe ears and
‘hung on she would have pulled the body out
of the cave. She hung to it for half an hour
before she quit thejob, and then she retired
.in a way which left no doubt that she would
watch at the entrance.
When the panther had gone I struck a
match and looked at my watch. It was nearly
'noon. and I was really suffering for water.
There was a damp spot on the rocks over my
bad, and I licked it With my tongue and in‘
that way got some relief, but I would have
traded my whole outfit that day for one glassf
of cool water. I felt that I was in a bad box,
and he is generally thecasein such instances,
I thought of every way out of it but the
easiest one. I reloaded my revolver, and
planned to wait until the panther would
-jleave the neighborhood, but about 2 o’clock I;
from the movements of the tunnel,‘
that the one I had encountered had hunted1
up her mate and brought him to the front.
Such soon proved to be the fact, but as only
one could enter the place at a time, it was no
advantage to them. They took turns tug-
ging at the carcass of the bear, and the new
comer would have dragged it out in short.
order but for my intwfenence. There was a
space of about sixinches between the body
and the roof of the tunnel, and, though the
fumes of the powder almost choked me, I
shoved my revolver along until close to the
panther, and then put two bullets into him.
He let go his hold and backed . out, and the
way he did rave up and down that ravine
made my hair stand. I had wounded both,
and neither of them ventured into the place
again. For about an hour I heard them
growling and snarling outside, and every
click of their claws on the rocks was plainly
audible, but by andby they gave it up as a

paid any ‘ icular attention to them or

conceivedan idea. He painted a icture
of a lady in black sitting on a brig t red

They were simply astounded when he an-
nounced that he was going to send it to
the exhibition. They labored with him,
but in vain. They told him that the
critics would “wipe the floor" with him.
“They can’t do that without mentioning
me." said Frank, quietly. “and they’ve
never even done that yet."
To the exhibition the picture went. It
killed everythln within twenty' feet

looking at it. It simply knocked you
down and held you there. The critics ot‘

hausted the English language in abusing
it. They ridiculed the committee that
permitted-it to be hung. They had squibs
and gibes about it, but every time they

Located at the National Capital, adjacent to all the
Executive Departments, gives me superior
advantage in the prosecution of Claims
against the United States.
INCREASE YOUR PENSION.
M any pensioners borne on the rolls ale entitled
to :1 mucnlligher mic of pension than they now
receive. qugl'eat majority of cases in which
pension was granted for disease, the pensioner is
entitled to an increase of rate, and in most cases
where it was granted for wounds or injuries the
disability increases each year. As time passes the
disability of all classes naturally increases. Many
were at first rated too low, and it often occurs
that pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examining surgeons. A pensioner is
entitled to increase on a disability not set forth in
his original declaration. The pension laws are
more liberal than formerly, and better rating can
be had for many disabilities. I make a specialty
of Neglected and Rejected Claims. and if you will
present me with a brief statement of your case,
stating by whom 11 was presented, I will obtain a
rehearing of your case, and, if it has merit, will
procure a favorable settlement. Many claims
stand rejected before the department, when it
only requires a competent attorney to make them
good cases. Soldiers slaw-tug with disabilities
cmuracced in service, who have not applied for a
pension, should do so as it is their RIGHT.

LOVE-A SONNET.
As when the harpist strikes the various strings,
And (though unseen unto the careless eye)
With short and quick vibrations they reply;
Moving the air with their swift flutterings, ‘
Till each new wakcned wavelet softly sings
And bears the tender melody onhigh,
So that to all the zephyrs slumbering nigh
New animation and delight it brings,
So love doth move the fibers of my heart
With short and quick vibrations and soft trills;
And, at the touch of its rcsistless art,
My frame with such delightful fervor fills.
Its sincws glow and quiver in every part
’Til love‘s sweet rapture every member thrills.

llismnrck's Brandy and Seltzer.
0n the occasion of Prince Bismm'ck-‘s last
speech in the reichstag Count Herbert, his
eldest son, now secretary of state in the
foreign office, kept the cognac bottle in his
own hands, while a. group of high function-
aries divided the rest of the work between
them. Nothing could exceed for downright
comicality the busy scene that was enacted
behind the chancellor’s back during the
whole of the speech. The difficulty with
which the glass mixers had continually to
contend was that of securing the requisite
degree of dilution. First one would taste
and find the compound too weak, so that
more cognac had to be added. Then another
would pronounce it too strong, and the addi-
tion of seltzel' water was the consequence.
More than once the chancellor, hard to
please, refused to drink the drought so care
fully prepared, and one of the solemn group
had to drain the glass, so that the blending
operation might; begin again. Probably a
dozen and a hull‘ small glasses were handed
to Prince Bismarck full and removed from
his bench empty before all had been said
that was in the great statesnmn’s mind.
That was a high record to reach, but then
the occasion was a. momentous one and the
chancellor’s throat was unusually trouble~
some—Temple Bar. .
They Got Tired of Politics. .
As the rush and roar of politics once more
rolls in upon us, it iainstructive to read what
John Adams had to say of the presidency in
comparison with other ways of spending life:
“If ever I get through this scene of politics
and war, I will spend the remainder of my
days in endeavoring to instruct my country-
men in the art of making the most of their
abilities and virtues—an art which they have
hitherto too much neglected. A philosophi-
cal society shall be established in Boston, if I
have wit and address enough to accomplish
it.” Jefferson also used to hide, as far as
possible, in the rooms of the Philosophical
society. Washington was at leasta member.
It is curious that our earlier history called to
the front of the most active life men whose
strongest predilections were for scholarly re-
tirement. After all, is not the real scholar
tho ablest business mani—Globe—Democrat.
Vunderbilts and Astors.
The Vanderbilts. spend enormous sums'on
furniture, bric-a-brac and artistic decora-
tions, but comparatively little on jewelry.
Not one member of the family cares for gems
except as an accessory to the toilet, and,
while the women wear costly and beautiful
diamonds, they have not among them a. rare
stone, a. finely cut integlio, or an ornament
representing any original taste or discern-
ment. The Astors, on the contrary, own one
of the finest collections of gems in the coun-
try, and the late Mrs. John Jacob Astor was
a. connoisseur whose judgment was respected
by the trade. Her purchases were always
made on conditions of the utmost privacy.—

“I tell you Brown,” moralized Dumley,
“life ain’t what it is cracked up to be. You

good deal in the old question, ‘Is‘lifo'v'vfifili

“and I realize it more and morei”
“I don’t know but what you’re right, Dum-

Shoo Dcalers' Lost Trade.
No, sir; if, for instance, any of our trade
is lost during a. season, it is never recovered.
Say that it rains for two or three weeks, so
that ladies cannot go out to buy shoes dur-
ing that time, you would think that as soon
as nice weather came enough shoes would be
sold in a short time to make up for the loss
during the wet weather, wouldn’t you? Yet
such is not the case. Any retailer who has
carefully watched the matter will tell you
