TWO QUEER ANIMALS.
But th? Hook Tail Bear Put On? Over
on the Sidthill Cresper.
Paul Smith, the famous Adirondack j
guide and story teller, once met bis
match. There wn -an Englishman, j
supposedly with the proverbial Eng- .
Ush sense of humor, who went to |
Smith's for some deer shooting. The
morning after his arrival he started
out with a gun alone. As he left the
camp Paul told him to beware of the ]
1 "side hill creepers."
"What's a side hill creeper?" asked j
the Englishman.
"Well," said Paul, "It's an animal
that llres on the side of a hill, and as
Its right Jegs are long and Its left legs
short it can only run on sloping
ground. They are very ferocious, and
if one starts after you you must run
np or down hill, as on account of lta
deformity It cannot catch you when
you do that"
The Englishman shouldered his gun
and weut out About night time he re
turned. The guide said to him. "Well,
I see yo'i dodged the creepers, all
right."
"No, I met one." said the English
man.
"Yes?" said Paul. "How did you
get away from him?"
"1 ran uphill," said the Englishman. |
"You shouldn't have done that You
could make better time running down
hill."
"I know It," said the Englishman,
"but you see I met a booked tall bear,
and I Just naturally had to run up
hill."
"Flow's that?" asked Paul.
"Well, you know when a hooked tall
bear gets started running the only
way he can stop Is to Trap his hooked
tail around a tree. If I had rundowu
j hill he could have stopped, but when
, [ ran uphill why every time h? hook
ed his tall around a tree he just tum
bled over b.ickwarl. and ?> 1 got
away."
Paul owned himself beaien and
when the Englishman left refused to
accept any money for his board? Sew

BURNING WOMEN ALIVE.
( A Puniihmant That Wat Abolished In
England In 1790.
The horrible punishment of burning
women alive seem* to have existed In
Saxon England, but perhaps oily In
the ca?e of slaves. Under the Norman
rulers nnv woman. bond or fr?e. who
killed her husband was bunted alive. |
and the same punishment for this
crime and also for hkh treason and
eveu for coining and other minor of
fenses continued or arose from time
to time through the second and third
periods until It was abolished by act
of parliament In 1700. the last actual
execution of this kind having, however,
taken place six years earlier.
The whipping of women for various
offenses continued even later. Public
whipping was not abandoned cntll
1817. and ca<*s of private whipping oc
curred as late as 1S20

A STAMP MILL
m SUCCEEDS
During the last years a rood deal
of Interest has been taken In quart*
mining in Alaska. Aside from the
development of the large low grade
deposits near Juneau, tho moat nota
ble feature of this renewed acti.-lty
'.s the discovery and development
of many small hl&h grade deposits,
in the regions tributary to I air
banks. Cordova, Valdei, and Seward
.Many small mills are going into
these districts. Among those in
stalled last year were six little
tiiant Stamp Mills built by the Se
attle Construction and Dry Dock
Company oi Seattle One of these
went to Dawson. A seventh outfit

to prevent destructive shock. These
Iron Fram. Mills have boon In use
lor Twenty Years, and their dura
bility has be??n well tented The

has a rotating de' Ice which keeps

make abo'it three revolntlons while
renting on the dies, thus giving thei
something o* the grinding action of
t muller. (Experiments with a
smaller mill with a similar device
showed a remarkable Increase In
capacity due to the grinding action
in addition to the crushing due to
t|io drop, at the same time produc
ing a finer pulp.
This method of crushing will no
doubt make more slimes with soft
ores than the single drop stamp,
i.nd where concentration is neces-j
nary the fine grinding inny hare no
advantage Hut for simple amalga
mation or for cyanldntlon either
with or without preliminary amal
gamation, this method which pro
duces a finer pulp than can be
economically made with the ordinary
stump may prove to be more econ
omical than successive reductions
