Qneer Episodes and Thrilling Adven tures Which Show that Truth Is Stranger than Fiction. ABBAM NOTT, who lives on Tunkahan na Creek, in Pennsylvania, carried a half bushel basket full of pork to his son William's house 011 Laurel ltuu, two miles distant, 011 a receut Monday. His route led through woods and choppings. Lato in the afternoon he tilled the basket with tools and started for home. Near the edge of Owl .Swamp ho placed tho basket near a tree and went off somo dis tance to gather overgroons to take home. When he returned to the path he saw a bear snifling at the basket. He yelled ut the boar three or four times, but tho bear only glared at him awhile and then seized tho bale of tho basket in his teeth and waddled toward the swamp. Nott grabbed a club and chased the b nr. In the swamp tho brute dropped the basket, faced his pursuer, and growled savagely*. Nott was about to strike at the bear with his club when tho boar struck him 011 the loft shoulder and sent him sprawling in tho bushes. Instead of repeating tho at tack the hoar turned, took the bale in his teeth, and waddled off again. Nott gave chase, overtook the bear, and pounded him on tho buck. Tho hour dropped tho baskot, turned 011 Nott und knocked tho club out of his hands. Nott then sprang past tho bear, grabbed the halo of tho basket and started off on a run. The bear overtook Nott soon and struck at him, but Nott took a nail hammer from the basket and hit the hour a stunning blow 011 the snout. It made him winco and stagger for a moment, but ho started after tho running man, grinding his teeth and snarling, and cliused Nott out of tho swump. By that time Nott had fumblod in tho basket till lie got hold of a pair of sheep shears. Seeing that the beur was still bent on regaining possession of the basket, Nott juuimod it in the crotch of < a sapling, turned on tho beur aud stabbod j him in the neck with tho shears. Tho | boar sprang up and Nott stabbed hiin in the nock ugain. Tho boar scratched at \ tho wound with his hind foot und Nott stabbod him several times 011 tho other sido of tho neck, tho shours piorcing tho jugular vein tho last time. Tho bear made sovoral efforts to staud up and then bled to doath. Nott skinned tho boar the next morning and left the carcass in the woods. GILBERT TOMPKINS, of tho Souther Farm, San Loandro, California, has his own views on training trotters, and, while ho does not claim to bo able to put a horse in shape to go into a long drawn out contest of heats, yet he avers that ho can accomplish a great deal by his sys tem and leave very little work to be done on tho race track. Mr. Tompkins swims his horses in a hugh tank. The tank is a simple affair, being nothing more than a cemented pit 90 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 8 feet deep, with corrugated inclines at each end, down which tho horses walk into tho water. Thirty yards away from the tank is a 10-liorsu power boiler, which furnishes steam for tho tank. The steam is forced into tho water through a two-inch pipe, and tho water is kept at a little below blood heat. To mako tho bath more perfect and to further insure against colds, tho water is strongly im pregnated with salt, about a ton and a half being emptied into tho pit. There are provisions for emptying and tilling tho pit with fresh water whenever neces sary. At the California farm the horse is contrylled by two men, ono on either side, with a lino attached to the bridlo. Round after round of the tuuk is made, tho tr.iinor using his discretion as to tho amount of work each animal roquiros. Four or five laps arc enough to mako a horse blow as though ho hud jogged a mile. When tho swim is over rubbers cool the horse out, thoroughly using the same methods as are employed when tho work is done over tho dirt track. E. GETCHEL, a Georgetown (Cal.) miner, recently found a nugget valued at #IO,OOO in Devine Gulch, one mile east of Georgetown. Devine Gulch, which empties into Oregon Canyon, was so namod from one Devine, au English sailor, who, in 1851, found in this gulch tho largest nugget which,up to that timo, had boon found in California, its value being #BOO. The result of this find is il lustrative of the state of society at that time. Devine gave the nugget to his wife, and told her that should ho return home drunk not to give him the gold, as ho would spend it He did return drunk, and as she refused to givo him tho gold, ho shot and killed her with a shotgun. Devine was immediately hanged by the miners. It is said that a most remark able circumstance connected with the lynching was that the tree upon which ho was hanged very soon died. In 1852 another nuggot valued at #SOO was found. Besides these several smaller nuggets have been found at various times. When Getchel found the nugget ho was sluicing off tho ground, which had boon con demned as worked out, for the purpose of filling a reservoir at the the gulch. Ho noticed a few colors, and followed up tho lead to where ho found what ho supposed to bo u piece of quartz, but was astonished upon finding it to be gold. Its weight is 501 ounces. MR. H. F. G uoss, a Philadelphia!!, who has been studying the anatomy of the oystor for six years, during which time he has dissected 0,000 specimens and put them undei the microscope, ad vances the theory that oysters may com municate tuberculosis, that, iu fact, tlicy are often overrun with baccilli, To u visitor Mr. Gross said: "Let me show you how I work," aud, opening a small case of slonder, keen-edged knives, he cut tiny portions from each oyster. Theso he placed in jars of colored fluid for several minutes, and then, handling them with small Gorman silver tweezers, ho mounted the particles on glass slidos, first dropping a little Canada balsam upon each slide. Ho lit a lump beside his microscope, placed a slido beneath the lens, and then, after carefully ad justing the focus, exhibited, ono after another, upwards of thirty parts of the oystor's organism. "1 have discovered," lie continued, "iu the lungs of 00 per I cent, of the specimens examined clearly defined baccilli, this fact seeming to provothat thousands of oysters suffer from consumption. lam ablo to tell at a glance whother or no an oystor is thus atHictod, but the majority of openers uro not, ns the disease makes only a slight change in tho oystor's appearance. Con sequently, through tho ignorance of his server, a man innocoiit'y will eat a con sumptive oyster, then the baccilli tuber culoid in its lungs may impregnate his system,and ho is pot unlikely to fall a victim to tho fatal disease." A. R. HILL, a loading lawyer of Dan ville, III.# was recently in Elberton, Gu., on a peculiar mission. Ho came to re cover au old family horse that was stolon from him on Deoember 21, 1890, aud which he followed over ono thousan I miles. The thief that stole the horse carried it to Indianapolis and sold it to some horse dealers. They sold it to somo Atlanta stock deulers, who shipped it to Elberton. A gentlemun from Mr. Hill's home, who was visiting in Elberton, saw the iiorso and recognized it, and at once notified the owner. Mr. liill came to sou uhout the much beloved animal. On his arrival he was informed that his horse was in the stables of Hill & Walker, and that 110 would have to prove beyond a doubt the identity of it before he could have it. With some other gentlemen Mr. Hill proceeded to the -table. When ho walked into the stall the horse neighed and pranced, and when Mr. ilill held out his huud tho horse licked it with seemingly us much passion us ever one person kissed another Tho gentlemen present were astounded at tho instant recognition of tho master by tho faithful old family horse after a full year's abseuco. Tho gmt lonian who had possession of the horse told Mi. Hill to take it, rem irking: "You need not identify the horso, he lias identilied you. 1 would hate to be a murderer and own that horse. I might run 011 him some day aud could 110ver conceal my identi ty." THE saying that "tho only good Indian is a dead Indian" must bo modified, in favor of tho Motlakahtlans of Alaska, who seem to bo fur advanced in the mothods and ethics of civilization. Mr. W. Duncan, a missionary among those people, says of them: "The Motlakuhs luns arc undoubtedly the most civilized Indians in tho world. They differ from most lndiuns in thut they are anxiou; to work, and are most unhappy when they are not wo king. The typical Indian, you know, is a fellow who sleeps in a dirty blanket, und walks with it wrapped around him in the daytime. The Met lukuhtluns have a regularly luid-out town and have built pretty cottages with garden spots in front. They earn their living by working in a saw-mill und can nery which wo liaro established. Tlioy are all christians and have no heathen customs or tribal relutions. They have no particular creed, and the Biblo is their book of law. The municipality is governed by a council of twonty-hve, elected by popular vote." Before join ing this ideal community the Indian must sign an agreement to refrain from gambling and tho use of intoxicants, to givo up tribal relations, send his children to school, and bo a loyal subject of tho Government of tho United States. A LOH ANGELES (Cal.) physician says that the most trying timo in all his ex perience was during the past five weeks, when ho stood hopelessly by and saw a poor ranchman near Puente dio by inches of what is known as progressive paral ysis. The patient was first taken in one big too. In a short timo the limb was paralyzed to the knee. Two physicians wero called, and all the known remodies wero applied to stay the progress of the deadening attack, but in vain. Hour by hour death moved on its victim. The patient was propped up in an arm chair and fully realized his condition. lie awaited the end with the coolness and bravery of a martyr. As tho lino of death crept nearer and nearer his heart ho made calculations as to how much longer he could live, lie said: "Now it has reached tho body," indicating tho exact place with his finger. In a little while ho said: "It has reached the bot tom of my lungs." Another short wait and he said faintly: "It has touched my heart," and he fell over dead. IIOSKMAN WILLIAM WILSON of engine house No. 7, in Frankford, a suburb of Fhiladelphiu, is the happy possessor of a Remington rifle, and tho other afternoon, while killing sparrows for a convalescing grip patient, made a peculiar and won derful shot. Noticing a sparrow perched on a telegraph wire lie aimed his rifle and tired at tho bird. lie was standing almost directly beneath the bird when the shot was tired, but, strange to say, the bird remained fixed without showing signs of having been struck or any fear of bodily harm. Wilson, who is a crack marksman anp rarely misses, refused to fire another shot. After the lapse of two hours the bird was observed to bo sitting apparently iu the same spot. A lineman who was passing that way WHS induced to climb the pole, when ho dis covered that tho sparrow was pinned fast to tho wire, the conical ball from Wilson's rifio having hit a Haw in tho wire and torn out a strand about two inches long, which, passing directly through the body of tho bird, had trans fixed it to tho wiro. TIIE recovery of speech by Mary Hopkins, a unite ininute of the Wayne county (N. Y.) almshouse, after being dumb over fiur years, has been pro nounced murvollous, and the cause aud euro alike have bafiled physicians not acquainted with tho case and given rise to many wonderful stories. Mrs. Hop kins is between 40 and 50 years of age, and was sent to tho almshouse about six years ago from Rose Valley. About three years later she suddenly lost her speech. James W. Robinson, the county physician, decided that tho woman was suffering from paralysis of tho vocal chords. 110 consulted Dr. Andrew F. Sheldon, an old army physician and surgeon, and decided to use an electric battery. The current was passed through the hack of the neck and mouth every day. After about one month's eloctric treatment the matron was much sur prised upon entering the mute's room owe morning to he greeted by a lo d "Hello" from Mrs. Hopkins. TRAVFLKRS and tourists who have been for a summer's outing among the islands which skirt the const of Honduras, tell marvelous stories of tho oyster groves of that country, und the rare delicacy of the bivalves "which grow on the trees." Tho facts iu this "tree-oyster"cuso are those; Tho mangrove trees grow in either fresh or salt water swamps, and oven iu water five or six foot deep. The limbs of tho mangrove are drooping liko those of tho weeping willow. In case they do not reach the water, tho attraction of tho moisture below causes shoots to put out which often extend far beneath the sur face; thus a thicket of mangroves is a matted muss of limbs, trunks, shoots and roots. On these limbs and shoots, deep down under tho surface of the water, large bunches of oysters cling, thus forming the far-famed "Oyster Groves of Honduras." IN Surrey County, North Curolinn there is a mountain whose outline dts plays a startling likeness to tho Sphinx of Kgypt. it is in tho northwestern part oftho State, just east of the Blue lildgu range, and lies prone upon the Piedmont plains. At a distaueo of ton miles the figure is the exact counterpart of that of a giguutio lion, its body at right angles to the precipitous ridge, und with head reared aloft as if in tho act of rising. The head and neck nre of solid rock, soveral hitrn'red fee' in height, tho shoulders and bronst which support them being finely rounded oil' by nuturo and seeming half buried in tho grass of the surrounding meadows. When iookiug at the figuro, although removed twenty-fiv# miles distant from it, the thought huuiitfl one that it must bo u thing of life and intelligence. IT is customary in tho town of Quito, Peru, when u visitor takes off his hat upon entering a room, to beg him to put it 011 again, and, in tho absence of per loavo is generally requested.

Tho same persons upon going out of doors tako off their hats to Hashes of lightning, no matter whether rain is lulling, mid when tho streets are busy and lightning is abundant, a grotesque otiect is produced by those salutations, which seem to bo regarded as a duty by well-behaved persons, and are performed as punctiliously us the homage which is paid to religious process oas when they are in sight A PECULIAR accident happened to a i t ruin on the spur from Oscoda to Potts,in Michigan, the other day.

Dr. Sohweinfurth, of tho National Mu seum of Egyptian Antiquities at Buluk, has been studying the ancient Hora of the Nile Valloy by means of specimens found in inutnmy cases from tho cata combs and sepulchral monuments which are so thickly strewn throughout "Egypt, tho laud of tho dead." The large colleo- i tion does not show a single example of a plant or vegetable which does not flour ish on tho banks of tho Nile to-day jusx as it did 5,000 years ago, nor does the most minute examination show the toast difference in tho Horn of to-day and that which grew the summer the first Pha raoh was a boy, now nearly lifty cen turies sinoe. Some of these ancient plants have been so woll preserved, that now, after a lapse of s,oooyears, the colors are plainly discernible; tho rod I of the poppy, the blue of tho larkspur I and the reddish brown of the saffron DO | ing distinguishable, although somewhat j faded, of course. Mustard, Hax, cucum bers, lentils, piuo combs, juniper berries, | dates, holly-hock, tigs, olives, onions and ' grapes have been found iu the tombs | bearing the marks which prove that they I woro sealed up 2,000 years beforo the | opening of our era. In one tomb of the j fifteenth dynusty (3000yoars B. (J.)some perfect heads of barley wero found. Dr. •Sohweinfurth says that there is no truth in tho storios that " mummy" wheat and barley havo been made to grow, lie says I that tho groat heat to which they woro subjected at the time of embuliniug de stroyed the germ. The Antiquity of Kid Gloves. An obsorvant person rode up town in an olovated car last Sunday evening, be tween 9 and 10 o'clock, called the ut | tentioa of a fellow passenger to the fact that every man and women in the crowded car, with two exceptions, wore kid gloves, or gloves that at least seemed to bo made of kid. The observant person had noticed tho fact while walking slowly from the front to the rear of the cur. He then made u remark that was curious iu itself and was also appropriate to Sun day, as it contained a quotation from tho Bible: "You will see," he said, "by look ing into the Book of Genesis, that tho habit of wearing kid gloves can be traced ! to oxtrome antiquity, oven as far back as j tho age of tho partriarchs, the times of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. In tho lfitli i verse of tho 27th chapter of Genesis we ; are told how, upon one memorable oc ! oasion, Isaac's wife fixed up the clothes :>. her son Jacob, and how, iu doing so, 'she put upon her hands tho skins of j the kids of tho goats,' or, in other words, ; kid gloves. Isaac must have looked like j a dude when lie walkod out wearing tho j kids which his mother had surreptitiously procured for him, and it was those very kids that enabled him to deceive his aged father and defraud his older brother."— [New York Sun.

Animuls and Locomotives. In a German engineering journal u writer oontrusts tho behavior of difforont animals toward stoum machinery thus: Tho ox, that proverbially stupid animal, stands composedly on the track of a rail way without having any idea of the dan ger that threatens him; dogs run among the wheels of a department railway train without suffering any injury, and birds soeiii to take a particular delight in the seam engine.
