FIELDS OF ADVENTURE.
THRILLING INCIDENTS AND DARINC
DEEDS ON LAND AND SEA.
A Deformed Scout's Curious Experience
With a Party of Hostile Indiana in
Montana—A California Ilaneher Polls
Down a Hill Into a Lion's Embrace.
A few years ago there flourished in ;
Montana a scout who had an extraor
dinary equipment, for liis occupation.
H was a tall, strong man, well built
except, in one respect; his feet, grew
the wrong way, his toes pointing back
ward instead of forward. This would
have been a serious drawback to any
man who went much on feot; but it
was almost no drawback to "Clubfoot
George," as this scout was called, be
cause practically he never went 011
foot at all. He had a saddle with stir
rups adapted to his deformity, and
could ride a horse as well as any other
cowboy.
Ho was an expert at trailing In
dians, and seldom had to dismount in
order to distinguish even the smallest
detail of Indian "sign." His keen
eyes took in everything* from his seat
in the saddle.
He is said to have known personally
all the Indians from. Fort Berthold to
the Blaokfoot Agency, and was equally
well known to them. But he was
their enemy, and they were his ene
mies. The war was apparently re
lentless between them.
In the dead of a certain winter,
many years ago, Clubfoot George had
occasion to go from old Fort Browning
to Fort Benton. He was alone, anil
lial to camp overnight on the way.
Even a famous scout, sometimes makes
a mistake, and George on this occa
sion hobbled liis liorse, a rather wild j
and flighty animal, so insecurely that
in the niglit it got away, and started
back to Fort Browning.
In the morning, therefore, Clubfoot
George had to confront the necessity
of walking to Fort Benton. It was !
an unpleasant thing to do, since it!
would take even a good walker about
two days to cover the distance, and
Clubfoot George's specialty was not
walking; but ho started out manfully
over the snow.
He had walked until about the mid
dle of the afternoon, when a party of
hostile Indians, out for white men's
scalps, came upon liis trail. His
tracks were plainly visible in the snow;
but of course they poiuted in the op
posite direction from that in which
George was going.
There was nothing about the tracks
to show that they were Clubfoot
George's; and besides, the Indians,
though they knew George well, had
never before seen the print of his
boots. Ho they started pell-mell in
the direction in which the tracks led,
thirsting for this white man's blood.
But when. they had followed the
trail to the spot where George had
camped the night before, and found
the trail of the horse and the evidence
that some one had come so far 011
horseback and then lost his horse, the
Indians looked at one another in as
tonishment, until one of them said,
"Clubfoot!" Then they all inspected
closely the tracks they had been fol
lowing.
Who says that Indians liavo no
sense of humor? No one who knows
them well. These Indians certainly
had, for they roared with laughter,
though the joke was 011 them. But
they determined to transfer it to the
white man.
So they turned back on the trail and
rode furiously all the rest of the day
and a part of the night, until they
came to a place where the queer heel
first track went over a bank. Then
one of the Indians lay down 011 liis
face and called over the edge of the
bank, in his own language:
"Clubfoot, are you there?"
"Yes, I am here! Is that you,
Howling Dog?"
What could be done with such a
man? The Indians were already more
than half mollified toward the scout by
their enjoyment of the extraordinary
joke that he had, quite unintention
ally, played on them; and when, in
tlio best of humor, George invited
them to come down and share his
camp and make themselves at home,
they did so, and never molested him.
Their unexpected friendliness must
have made an impression on Clubfoot
George, for the chapters of his adven
tures end with this incident. He gave
up scouting, and ever after lived u
peaceful life.
Sir Andrew Clark'* Presence of Alin<l.
Sir Andrew Clark was once 011 top of
a tall building in London admiring the
view of the surrounding country. While
thus employed he was touched on the
shoulder by a quiet-looking man, who
slowly remarked, to the great astonish
ment of Sir Andrew, "Sir, I am going
to throw you off." As the quiet-look
icg map was the larger, and there was
110 help at hand, the matter for the
moment assumed a very serious aspect.
Fortunately for Sir Andrew, lie is pos
sessed of rare presence of mind, and in
a bantering way 110 exclaimed; "Pooh!
that's nothing; anybody could throw a
man oft' here. Now if you want to do
something great, try and throw me up
here from the ground."
"Well, I can do that," said the
maniac, for such he proved to be, "and
if you will kindly descend to the street
I will prove it."
"With pleasure," Sir Andrew re
plied, and with great decorum the two
descended to the street, where the ma
niac was quickly handed into the cus
tody of the law.—Harper's Round
Table.
Hugged by u Ilia Mountain Lion.
C. B. Bates, a rancher living at. La
manda Park, east of Pasadena, Cal.,
fell into the embrace of a big mountain
lion on a recent morning while iu Mil
lard's Canyon. The two had a lively
catoh-as-catcli-oan contest for a few
moments iu which the lion scored all
the points and finally escaped, mucU
to Bates' satisl action.
Bates had been on a camping trip
up the canyon and had decided to re
turn. He rose at daylight, rolled his
blankets and coffee pot and started
down the trail. To save time he made
a short cut across a spur of the hills
and reached the crest safely, but in
descending his roll of blankets caught
on the jagged end of a rock, threw him
off his feet and down he rolled. The
ground was soft and rolling down the
steep incline was more alarming than
dangerous.
As he reached the bottom of the
canyon on his involuntary journey lie
bounced into a heap of brush and
landed flat and fair on something soft
and warm that gave out a heart-chill
ing shriek, to which Bates responded
in an excellent imitation of a cry
from a man all but scared to death. In
a second he felt four great claw-armed
paws encircle him, glaring eyes gazed
into his and long white teeth sank
into liis left arm. He had fallen, face
to face, on a California lion, which he
says looked to be about twenty feet
long, but which was probably about
five. It was big enough, though.
Bates had no weapon, was incum
bered with the roll of blankets on his
back, and all he could do was to strike
out with his lists and feet. The lion
was unquestionably as badly fright
ened as he or would have killed him by
clawing him to slireds. After the first
terrific impact each tried to get away
from the other, and after a minute's
fight the big animal broke away, its
liaii* standing on end aud its tail the
size of a barrel.
. Bates bound up his wounds as best
lie could and made bis way out of the
mountains, and came to Los Angeles,
Cal., to ascertain if there was danger
of blood'poisoning. The doctors re
assured him on this point. His wounds
were painful, but not dangerous. His
legs were clawed and his left arm se
verely lacerated. He does not think
that he hurt the lion much, for his
upper cuts and straight-arm jabs
seemed ineffective, but ho is of the
opinion that the incident will never
be forgotten by either of the partici
pants.
Nervo of an Oregon Miner.
A few days ago at Quartzburg, in
Baker County, Oregon, Theodore Eby,
a miner, was working alone in u stopo
in the Gilford mine when a huge rock
fell from the hanging wall aud struck
his leg, breaking it about half way be
tween the knee and hip and pinioned
the unfortunate man fast. Within an
arm's length of where he stood was a
pick. With this instrument ho pried
the rock from liis leg aud extricated
himself. There was 110 assistance
nearer than Mr. Gilford's house, just
below the dump of the tunnel, and the
only person there was Mrs. Gifford,
her husband being absent.
There was only one thing for Eby
to do, and was to get himself out
the best way possible. The journey
ahead of him required almost super
human effort. He had to go down on
a ladder in a sixty-foot shaft from the
stope to the tunnel, which was 300 feet
from the entrance.
He let himself down the shaft by his
bauds, and on reaching the .tunnel
crawled out, all the time suffering the
most intense pain. On reaching the
dump he called for help, and Mrs.
Gifford camo to his assistance and
helped him to the house and to his
bed. Later Mr. Gifford returned
home and procured a physician to at
tend Mr. Eby, who at last accounts
was getting along as well as could bo
expected.
A I.ami of Aspurugutu
It is not generally known, but it is
a fact nevertheless, thnt asparagus
grows abundantly in its wild state in
portions of the Santa Ana valley. A
few years ago it was discovered that
celery grew freely in the peat lands
west of the river in a wild state, aud
in a very short while an enterprising
fruit dealer aud shipper from Kansas
City came out to investigate the re
ports he had heard about the wild
growing celery. This investigation
resulted in the formation of the U. E.
Smelzer Celery Company and the
planting of a large tract of the peat
lands to celery. The business lias
proved quite profitable—so much so
that other companies have been formed
and a much larger area of land planted
to this table delicacy. It would ap
pear from the history of the celery in
dustry that there is a splendid open
ing here now for some enterprising in
dividual or company to develop the
asparagus industry. There's money
in it, and no mistake. That the soil
and climate are suitable to the produc
tion of the vegetable is made plain in
the manner in which the wild aspara
gus grows in portions of the valley.—

There's six of us with me. Count 'ein

said the doorkeeper, and he tallied off
five, who immediately mixed with the

AGRICULTURAL TOPICS.
Proper Kongo for Poultry,
One acre of land gives a good range
for 200 fowls. Divide it in two portions
with poultry netting; let the flock run
on one-hall', while the other is culti
vated, or at least plowed and sowed
down to grass. Poultry will delight
in this grass the next spring, when the
halves must be alternated. Only in
some such way may we be sure to keep
the land sweet and free from disease.
—New England Homestead,
Width of Komi.
In planting corn, cotton, potatoes,
and, in fact, all horse-hoed crops, the
rows should he placed far enough
apart to permit the free use of im
proved tillage tools, and close enough
to enable such tools to thoroughly
work the entire space between the
rows without an extra passage to "cut
out the middles." In drilled crops a
little drawing together of the rows and
a corresponding widening of spaces be
tween plants will often give a more
equal distribution and a better chance
to do best work with the cultivator.—
The Epitomist.
Caring for lloaeH.
Now comes the diseases that roses
are heir to—mildew, black spot, aphis,
slug. All these will make a severe
test of your love for the garden queen.
But all may be successfully battled if
you have perseverance.
Hellebore applied under the leaves
with a bellows will rout the slug.
Tobacco stems chopped tine and scat
tered about the roots or burned in a
pan under the bushes are also effica
cious.
Frequent spraying with ammonia
water* not too strong, will conquer the
red spider.
Keep the earth well worked and
water two or three times a week thor
oughly, aud you have done enough in
this direction.
Take care that you make cuttings of
the more tender sorts, wo that you may
provide against loss.
' Ilronil lieans. _
Broad beans are among the earliesl
seeds that can be sown in the open
ground. They are very hardy, and
the first of them may be put in at once.
As a rule, a stilf soil agrees best with
them, but as this kind of soil is the
wettest at this season, it will be best
to avoid it. for fhe first, crop, and to
sow in rather ajight soil that doesnol
retain the moisture to any extent. The
ground should be well manured first,
and afterward opened with drills aboul
a yard apart and three inches deep.
Bow the seed in a double row along
the bottom, but keep each seed apart
about two or three inches. Place a
thin layer of sand over the seed, and
then cover over with the ordinary soil,
which should be trodden Jdown on the
top and made very firln. A thin layei
of ashes may be put over all, as this
hinders the snails from eating the
young plants,|and a lookout must b<*
kept that mice do not eat the seed.—
The Ledger.
Management of llrooding Turkey.
Turkeys during the breeding seasa.-
are apt to wander far from home, and
the hens 1: ave a fashion of hiding their
nests in secluded places where it is
hard to And them. If turkeys are kept
tame they will not go so far away to
And their nests, but will take quite
kindly to nests that ave provided for
them in out-of-the-way corners near
the outbuildings of the farm. It is
best to hatch the earliest laid turkey
eggs under chicken hens, as they keep
close to the house, whilG a turkey
mother will go so far that her brood
will tire out trying to follow her. This
is particularly true in the early part of
the season when chilling rains are apt
to come and chill the little poults.
Later the turkey may be allowed to
hatch a brood, and will often bring
most of them to maturity without much
assistance from the owner. This is
especially true if they have fa dash of
wild blood ill them, as the wild turkeys
are very hardy. Of the domestio
varieties the bronze are the hardiest
aud most profitable to keep.
Scaly Legd In Poultry*
Scaly legs is a form of scabies or
mange due to a mite known as the sar
coptes niutans, which burrows under
the skin, beginning between the toes
by a gradual elevation of the epidermic
scales, owing to the formation of a
white powdery substance beneath
them. The disease extends up the
leg, the scales are detached and the
joints become affeoted. The best pre
vention is to at once treat the first
signs of the trouble appearing, and to
at once separate afflicted fowls from
the rest of the flock. One scaly legged
bird roosting with a flock free from
the disease will soon spread the dis
ease among them. It can be effectu
ally cured by first washing the legs
and toes with castile soap and warm
water. If a soft brush is used it will
he all the better. After the legs and
toes are dry from the washing, anoint
with an ointment; made with equal
parts of melted lard and kerosene.
Repeat the treatment daily until the
legs are perfectly clean. Some poul
try writers recommend putting the
feet aud legs in kerosene oil. We
consider that not only a grievous mis
take, but certainly a painful operation.
By combining the kerosene with lard
it is more cooling and healing. While
treating the scales do not try to pull
any off. By so doing you will start
them to bleed aud cause soreness.
Brush lightly with the soap and water
and gradually the scnles will soften,
and the ointment will loosen them
up so that they will drop off. Ne
gleoted oases of soaly legs will so
weaken the fowl that death will even
tually follow.—Ohio Poultry Journal.

Hare In a Wild Ntato.
There are a number of our best
known and most valuable cultivated
plants which are already extinct in a
wild state, or fast becoming so. Of
plants of this mlass the following may
be mentioned: Bean, chick-pea, lentil,
tobacco, wheat, Indian corn and prob
ably sweet potato. Some of these never
have been seen in a wild state, while
others have become so exceedingly
rare that apparently it is only a ques
tion of a comparatively short time
when they will have disappeared ab
solutely. They have been so long in
cultivation, and are so profuudly modi
lied, that they have not the faculty of
sowing themselves and propagating in
definitely outside of cultivated ground,
so that if they should cease to be culti
vated they would soon disappear from
the face of the earth.
Stammering.
A very simple remedy for stammer-
Ing has been given by a gentleman who
stammered l'rom childhood almost up to
manhood. Go Into a room, he says,
where you will be quiet and alone, get
a book that will Interest you, and sit
down and read for two hours aloud,
keeping your teeth together. Do this
every two or three days, or once a week
if very tiresome, always taking care to
read slowly and distinctly, moving th®
lips but not the teeth. Then, when con
versing with others, make up your
mind that you will not stammer, and
try to speak as slowly and distinctly as
possible. He adds that by this means
he succeeded in effectually curing him
self, and recommends the same plan to
others.

MRS. KRINER'S LETTER
About Change *of Life.
| "I suffered for eight years and could
find no permanent relief until one year
' ago. My trouble was Change of Lifo-
I tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and relief came almost im
' mediately. 1 have taken two bottles of
than I ever had in
my life. I feel like a new person, per
fectly strong. I give the Compound
all the credit. I have recommended it
to several of my friends who are using
it with like results. It has cured me
of several female diseases. 1 would not
do without Mrs. Pinkham's remedies
for anything. There is no need of so
much female suffering. Her remedies
are a sure cure.''— MßS. ELLA. KRINEB,
