Perhaps tlu; tlrat tiling ymi will bu told about dynamite is that ooneus ?iou in uoodod to act it ofl\ N'tnv, I liovo accident ly cut a atick of dyna mite into halves with a npade, and nothing hi* J?I ??* I ? **?! , except lltal my luiavt leaped into my throat an I sniv what 1 had done. Again, I have .seen a minor pick up a stick and throw it nt his partner, who, luckily, caught it iu n most delicate way, and then gently laid it down and wont for the fool, and well and truly thrashed him. Another instance. Two of us were working at the bottom <?!' :< shaft, and had ma do ready for a shot. Some sticks of dynamite wel'o being Sent down to us iu a bucket, lull tite man nt the top, wln? was seven 01 eight different kinds of a born fool, man ugodlo dro)> a stick over tho .vide of tho bucket, and it fell ?tor:i;' tittv t:mt down tho Hlnjfl and landed at out feet, (leorgo Ito.'ts, my partuti. looked at mo and I at him, ve s.iid nothing, but I believe that we both thought a whole lot. So you Men that coucuk Moil does net always set oil' dynamite. Cut, oh! there is anot iier side to tho question, I Knew a mini r who was canning "t wo bticks of dynamite in the bosom of his shu t when lie slutuldod and foil. Where ho It II tho ground was torn up and a big hob made, but nothing more was ever seen o! that miner. Another case. A teams! was <li iv iug slowly up tho hill, picking his way and keeping a sharp look out for rocks on the roml; his wagon was load oil with dynamite, c.trciu!lv paekcii. Ono- wheel ntruck a alone; there, was a jolt and a roar, and then the teamster, his wagon, and four mules were scat tered over the State of .Montana. And tho corotu-r'fl jury did not view the re mains, because there were none. Ah I paid before, il i * ?jit?<er .??tuff, and y>'t it looks no in iiocen I and harm losH ? Hiiio t ho women again !

Tin; stulV is vijry sensitive to changes of temperature, and has to be thawed out before using if it has j .become frozen. At li rat one, iu- , olinod to look upon this thawing out j process as rather ticklish work ? at- ! though, with proper care, it is usually perfectly safe. \ tire is made, and tho dynamite is placed near it. Often you will f>eo a miner, who wishes, perhaps, to startle hoiuo "ten dcrfoot," take a stick and no* /ire to it, holding it in his hand while it spot ters and bunts with a sharp, acid and choking smoke.

The only thing' you can say about dynamite is that the j unexpected is just as likely to happen . as t lie expected. Now tor my story. In October, j 1 H'.)7, T was at Castle. Montana, not | tar from the l'ia/y Mountains. While ! the boom waj agoing on, ('a- tic was a j lively, widf-open town, but when I was there tho bottom had fallen out of i tho boom, and tho town, if not dead, , was decide llv sleeping. Upon tho hillsides were the op? n i shafts of abandoned mini--. lice j luiildings and ? xpcns.ve machinery were lult (intended and falling to i pieces; uhiM the I oni di ngdiouses, tilleil to overflowing by millers tu the! palmy days, werevmptx an I deftcrted. ' Tho inhabitants ? . f tiie | ? 1 1 1 c towu . made patlmtic attempts to ? ?eon \ iice ! t he;nKcl v es and stray \.sit,,rj? that times were picking up, ami that th< re ' would yet be /prosperity for them, fs there, by tlye war, anyone hi the 1 world who is/ Mote sun . u 1 1;?. than n miner or pi o/^icelor A few ini/ivs wet e s-till bring woi kcd. mid rtituo/s of rich strikes w?-re con Mantly ^henrd on the streets and re peatc j iu tho poor little w? ekly jiaprr. f know uf not ii iug more pitiful than a dcu<i mining-tost n ; and Montana has luajjy such dreary wreck*. fu ("astlu th^ro were many mines whu.se owners, Jii'thc go 1 1) c ii days, refused to sell them fo?~ thousands of dollars' now, however, thev were abandone 1 alto gether, or were worked, in a half hearted manner, "ou shares." Ueorgo Ross anc, I had taken the Golden West ' miue on Mhares; Oeorgo was an experienced miner, . but 1 was green at tho work, having but lately comu from tho cattle coun try, and being more handy at throwing a ropo than at .swinging a pick or turning a drill. Out we got on cni?i- ? tally together. One day we were .at work on a tun nel which we were running iuto the aide of tito hill. The tnnnei wan abort* t tovtj feet long, and while we drilled some holes at tho wall end of it, at; the mouth we built a little tiro aud laid near it aome sticks of dvuannte ' wbieh wero frozen. Iloside the fire -.stood a wheelbarrow, >\nd on it, ' "Wrapped in a piece of gunny naofc, i Were aoma lengtha of fnae aud a little tin box containing the cap* ovude- j tonaioratticd to explode the dynamite. W? wera bufjlj Working one morning, \ Lbs ?? drill sad turning it; while George wan ntrikiftg, whou suddenly wo both noticed tlmt a ohok? ing Binoke whs curling into tho tun - uel, bringing with it tho unmistakable smelt of burning dynamite.

"I guosH we're done for," mud he, , aimply. Wo tin ow ourselves <>n our facts, i for tho smoko wus choking us. I , know f tried to piny, but it was u ljumbloil attempt, on account of tho i whirling eonfUHion of thoughts that | rushed through my oxoitnd head. I i thought of my obi homo in Kngluud; of mean things that. I had done at , school and ninco, uud of tho girl who J would never know bow much I had i loved her. Through nil there bu/.zc I t tho pitiful refrain : "lt.'n a shame? -it'ii a shame, to 'lie like thia - blown to piece# in u hole in | tho ground!"

But it was not to be. I looked , again, and saw a marvelous thing ? -a tiling I shall never forget, for it is printed at the back ot my eyes and branded mi my brain. An 1 like al! marvelous things, it was wonderfully simple. The barrow was tilted a little, and as tho pieew of sacking burned, thu weight'of the box of caps slowly unrolled it Tho box then fell out on tho side farthest away from the tire, uud gently rolled down tho side of the hill iv.to safely! It wae a lew seconds before we realized that tho chief danger was over; then wo scrambled to our feet and staggered to the entrance ot the tunnel, f went down and picked up the still warm box of caps, and sprang down thu mountain-Hide with it George followed mo, and without iv woid we wont clown the main Btroel of tho 1 1 1 1 !o 1 o w u . llemcmber. thut the time fiom our first noticing the smoke Until I saw that blessed little box roll away could not have been more than a few sec ond i. \.id there wan not much chuiKv of showing bravery or cow ardice, n kitten, drowned in a mo*I, , may be brave or may not; it makes im dili'orcuco to the kitten or to il t reputation afterwards. i~3o it wnj with us in th?t' tunnel oi? the ''Golden West."
