10 A HUNTER PEDAGOGUE ONE EYE ON THE SCHOLARS, THE OTHER OUT TOR GAME. There Wm a Bnnwty Where Wild Dear Scampered Wear the School House, and the Teacher Constantly Watched Both It and the Mischievous Youth. Nicholas Church, one of the oldest hunters in the Pocono mountains, said to the writer the other day: "Sixty-eix years ago I went to school to Alexander Dunbar in a little log school house down in the Pocono valley, near where Tan nersville now is. An odd character Dunbar was. He stood over six feet in hia socks, he was lean as a crane and he could run like a deer. He always kept a loaded rifle standing by bis chair in the school house. A few yards up the road there was a runway where deer crossed the creek. During school hours Dunbar always seemed to have one eye on the runway. He was crazy for hunt ing, and whenever he saw a deer dash across the road or heard a hound baying in the woods he appeared to forget all about his school for the time being. Without saying a word to any of the scholars he would grab his rifle, rush out of the house bareheaded and away he'd go after the deer, like an Indian. Sometimes we would see him coming back in less than an hour with a buck or a doe slung over bis shoulder, and then again maybe we wouldn't see anything of him till the next morning. Dunbar always got a deer if he had to stay on the trail till dark. While he was off on one of his exciting hunts the children generally staid in the little house and had a great play spell. When it was time to go home, if Dunbar didn't make his appearance, we dismissed ourselves. After a while some of the parents found out how Dunbar was neglecting his school, and they hauled him over the coals for it But they couldn't break Dunbar of his mania for chasing deer. Nothing could, and after that Dunbar told one of the big boys to take charge of the school when he dashed out with his gun. A NARROW ESCAPE. "One day Dunbar had a terrible fight with a wounded buck on Pocono creek. He came within an ace of losing his life, but he was just as crazy to chase deer after that as he was before. Til show yon what kept Dunbar from being killed," continued Mr. Church, and he brought out an old bent and rusty rifle barrel that had once sent ballets flying after game from a flintlock. "Dunbar's gun was ont of kilter," resumed the old hunter, "and 1 took this rifle to the school house for him to use. It belonged to my father, and Dunbar got a chance to use it before night That afternoon he saw a buck trot down the runway, and he seized the rifle and gave chase. The buck was tak ing it easy, and the longlegged school master banged away at him near the creek. The buck plunged forward and plowed in the snow and Dunbar ran up to cut his throat Just as Dunbar got to him the buck roused up and pitched at him savagely. He had been shot through the nose, and he was as full of fight as a wounded panther. There was no charge in the rifle, and Dunbar dropped his knife and went to beating the angry buck off with the gun. He soon broke stock and then he fought the bnck with the barrel, bending it in the fight as you see it now. Every time the back pitched at him Dunbar knocked a spike from his antlers, and when it was all over Dunbar had trimmed every spike from his horns. He finally stunned the buck long enough to cut his throat, and when he lagged the back to the school house he was the raggedest schoolmaster I ever saw, for the game animal had torn his homespun suit into strips with his sharp hoofs. Dnnbar declared that he enjoyed the fight and was ready for another of the same sort SCHOLARS LIKED DUNBAR. "Every other Saturday there was no school, and Dunbar took tho whole day for hunting. He got in the habit of coaxing a tame bnck that belonged to my folks to follow him into the woods when he went after deer. The bnck soon got! bo that he was tickled to go with the schoolmaster, and before long he formed the habit of wandering away from Dun bar, making friends with wild deer and leading them around where Dunbar could get shots at them. Dunbar thought the trick was very cunning, and so did we boys, but my father didn't think so. When he found out what Dunbar was doing with tbe buck he put a stop to the fun by fastening the buck in a pen when ever Dunbar had a holiday. While I think about it IU tell you what an in genious way Dunbar had to stop whisper ing in the school. He had a yarn ball, nnd every time he caught one of us 'whispering he threw the ball at the whis perer, hitting him or her. The scholar that was hit had to stand in the middle of the room with the ball and throw it at the first one he caught whispering, and so on all day. We liked the way Dunbar tried to keep a still school."— Cor. New York Tribune. Use of Piteous fer Speculation. In modern times the pigeons have been used for purposes of commerce and spec ulation as well as war. In 1770 a shrewd Italian had the winning numbers in the lotteries thus sent to him, and it is a well known fact that the London branch of the great Rothschild banking house was able, by means of carrier pigeons, to receive news of the victory at Waterloo three days in advance of the govern ment, and to realize an enormous profit by buying up government stock, then very much depressed, and selling again when the rise came.—Denver Repub lican. A Living Orchestrion. There is said to be a musical freak in Columbus, Ind., who plays in a peculiar manner with his lungs any tune, with a distinctness and clearness that brings [out every note as fully as it can be brought out on any piano or other musi cal instrument by the most accomplished performer. —Philadelphia Ledger. IMPORTANT NOTICE. Advertising That Pays—How to Make Money. On the sixth page of the Hsbald ap pears a list of classified advertisements which should be read by every one. Persons wanting situations, help, or who wish to rent, buy or sell property, will do well to advertise in these col THE HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 26, 1892. limns. Desirable opportunities for the investment or borrowing of money appear daily. Other features are cheap eastern excursions, business chances, educational cards, professional cards, personal notices, special notices, ex change advertisements, slock for sale and a full record of the amusements of the city. The Bight to Privacy. Two decisions have recently been ren dered by important tribunals which re buke the tendency to interfere with the right of the citizen to be let alone. The supreme court of Mississippi has decid ed, in the case of a black man whose cabin was entered by a party of men who came to "arrest" him, without war rant of law, for an alleged offense, and who shot and killed two of these invad ers of his house, that a man has a right to defend himself under such circum stances. The court, in setting this man free, declared its belief that the home should hare every possible safeguard thrown around it. The other decision mentioned is in a caseof a very unusual character. A cer tain society proposed to erect a statue of a deceased and very philanthropic lady The members of this lady's immediate family objected, on the ground that notoriety in any form was wholly dis tasteful to her, and that, inasmuch as she was a private citizen, the erection of a statue of her was an unauthorized invasion of privacy. Tho supreme court of New York took this view of the case and declared that the wish of her family, representing her own known desire, should be observed, and that no public representation of her should be permitted.—Youth's Compan ion. Kilted the Bear with a Penknife. A big yearling bear was killed on Fri day on Little mountain, near Parkers burg, W. Va., by John Hall, seventeen years old. and Mont Black, twelve years of age. The boys were coon hunting in the mountain when the dogs treed the bear. They had an old single barreled shotgun, loaded with bird shot and an ax. They fired the load of shot into the bear and brought the animal down. Then the dogs attacked it, but they were beaten off. One of the boys ran in and struck at the bear with the ax, bat did not hit it. Young Hall then drew hia pocketknife and went at the bear. He was pretty badly scratched and severely bitten on the fingers, but stuck to the brute until he cut the bear's jugular vein. The boys dragged home the body in triumph.—Cor. New York Sun. Carious Marrying Mistake. At the parish church of Brierly Hill, on the borders of the Black country, a curious mistake occurred a few days ago. A bridal party by some means oc cupied their wrong places, and the bride was married to the best man, who was engaged to marry her sister. Daring the ceremony the bride had some idea that the proceedings were hardly as they should be, as the bridegroom stood be hind her and the best man, and handed the ring to the latter. On the other hand, the best man made the necessary responses. Happily the error was dis covered before the register had been signed and the ceremony was gone through a second time, care being taken that the right man was wedded to the bride.—London Tit-Bits. A Cricket Bowling Machine. Recently a patent bowling machine for the use of cricketers, for practicing purposes, was exhibited in England, where the unerring aim of the mechani cal cricketer knocked out the middle stump of the most expert batsman that stood before it. The length of pitch, di rection and movement of the ball can be produced within wide ranges with great facility. The aim, sighted as after the manner of marksmen, is regulated from a dial, and the ball, thrown from a re volving iron hand, is capable of bowling over or under hand with great accuracy. —New York Telegram. Divorced in Fifty-seven Seconds. In the district court at Galveston Fri day the suit of Mattie Brooks against her husband, William Brooks, was on the docket for trial. The case was called by Judge Stewart, but the defendant did not appear. The plaintiff s attorney arose, read the petition, alleging the statutory requisitions and setting forth the cause of action, put a witness on the stand and examined him, and secured the sanction of the court to the entree of a decree of divorce, all having been done in exactly fifty-seven seconds.—Exchange. Mining from a. Balloon. Think of a mining enterprise coif ducted by soaring aloft in a balloon. There are many ore producing ledges on the precipitous sides of hills in the Rocky mountains. These ledges are so lofty as to be inaccessible by ordinary methods; therefore, Mr. S. C. Bees, an experienced miner, proposes to reach them by means of an anchored balloon. This will en able him to secure foothold on the ledges aud make entrances through the sides of the precipitous hills.—Yankee Blade. An Alternative. Bobby—l'm afraid, papa, that you wiU have to get me a new suit or a new pair of skates. Father—"Why so, my son? Bobby—Because the skates I have now are so old that I'll fall with them and tear my clothes, and I won't if I have a new pair.—New York Truth. People in Boston who knew the late E. A. White are wondering about bis will. He left $350,000 to his widow, and then lovingly reflected that his daughter might also need something to comfort her during a rainy day, so he left her an umbrella—"only this and nothing more." An important dam across the Andros coggin river at Rumford Falls, Me., has just been completed. Its object is to improve the water power at that point. This dam is 440 feet long, fifty-six feet wide at the bottom and about twenty feet high. Of the 600,000,000 persons who were carried last year on steam vessels but sixty-five were killed. This shows that this means of travel is the safest in the world. A Kansas man has been compelled to pay a fine of fifty dollars for kissing the hand of a beautiful woman who objected to the familiarity.
