"No, no," pleaded Jack, "I rather tike him, too, for his Custiliau airs. We have weapon?. Let us keep him. That he is useful you .cannot deny." We finally gave up arguing with Jack, au<l let the matter drop. Monti's services were not dispensed with the next mV. ilv coutinue<l to tutor Jack in 8 punish, carry our packs when we made our little excursions thereabouts, and to t religiously collect his paj at eventide cacii day. Thus did a wcok slip by. On one of our rnmhles during that time, ws cam# upon s fissure in a ravine's rocky stda, where we thought gold might be fouutt. It Iny about two miles east of the camp in a little bit of tlmbc-rlaiid. We had worked a day or so in th? abaft* aunk by the miners of the camp, for tlit? novelty of the experience, and when we discovered thin opening, one of lit suggested that we put a blast in it anil see if we could lay bare any veins of precious metal. Tlio proposition was received with favor, nhd wo settled on a day for the experiment. On the morning ot that day, we set out for the promising spot, .Monti carrying it enii of powder and other aecestorles for the blast. 11 ugh and 1 took our gutis with ut. We reached the spot in about an hour and a Intlf. Then Monti dropped his load at the edge of the li-sure, and we started to prepare the blast. lint our drill was missing. It had either slipped from Monti's load or been left behind. "Monti," said Hugh disgustedly, "get back to the cabin, us ipiick as your thin shanks will carry you, and bring a drill, i liook along the ground, too, as you go i ?you may tind ours dropped by souio j stone." "Si, senor," the fellow returned. | "We will take a little run down the r ravine for game while you are gouo? j hey, Cud?" Hugh added. "All right," I exclaimed. 41 And I will try a snoo/.e here, meanwhile," said .lack, i lie stretched himself la/.ily upon a uio-sy knoll as lie spoke, threw his coal i over the po.vder keg for a pillow, and pulled at his corncob contentedly. It I was a pleasant spot for a nap. A stunted i little maple gave him shade; the stream flowing lluougii tiio locks, ten lect distant, sang a melodious, slrepinduciiig i lullaby. "I should have had dreams with such a head-rest" said Hugh looking down at Jack's blond locks and smiling lace, i "And I, too, senor," added Monti. "You won't forget to put that pipe out ?" "Oh, no," laughed Jack. We separated then. Monti hurried off toward the cabin and Hugh uud I walked up the ravine. "If we get anything out of that hole in the wall, what do you say making it into a wedding present lor IJrllu Hastings?" asked Hugh, as we went on. "A lir.st-eluss idea?" I exclaimed. "It may lie a gorgeous dinner set." i "Or a glove butloner." ! "Yes," laughed Hugh. We went on a little further, and our w.^y was finally barred by a steep a- en!.

Creek and the middle Branch of Hrodshead Creek. Thirty or forty rods away, I saw a bear dancing around something on the ground, and I laid mr rifle mr**** - au<I got behind it. I watched the bear just as Mr. Sweet did the one on tho water tank, knowing that I could reach him with a bullet the minute he undertook to make himself scarce. From his actions I judge 1 that the bear wai angry about something, but I couldu't tee what he win dancing around, and I kept my rifle aimed at him, so as to tire the io> staut I saw he was going to leave tue open for the brush. The bear kept bopping in a circle, quickly jumped to one side every littie while and appeared to be gettiug madder and inn Ider. All of a sudden the bear wad lied away a few yards, I had to bend on him, and I wa? almost ready to pull the trigger, when the bear stopped. I wuote I to see wlial he was going to do next, and so I didn'l shoot, lie pawed in the dirt a spell and then he pieke 1 up a round stone, biggu than his head, lie took the stone in hii paws, hugged it to iris brisket and walked on his hind feet toward t ie sp.it where I'd fir?t seen him. Wnen he got to the spot he walked around it a couple of time*, and then he raised the stone as high as he could and threw it 0:1 the ground. The bear then dance I around the stone for two or three minutes, when he suddenly turned tail ami took a bee line for the brush. Seeing that he was going to leave for good, 1 bunged away at him and brought him to a stop, finishing with another bullet. 1 was anxious to lind out why the bear had thrown the stone on the ground, and so I got a stick iiml rolled it over. Undir the stone lay ii dead rattlesnake, coile I up and as flat as a flounder.? Xctr York Jrihit'ic. llnriiMWKrirled."
