A MAINE MOOSE STORY.
Bill Sutherland, who has been lum
bering on Bear Brook, five miles from
.he Grant farm, came home Thursday,
bringing a thrilling story from the wil
der ess of Alex Brown, the famous dry
l; nd navigator, and a moose. Every
body who has visited Moosehead of
Ragged Lakes within the past thirty
years knows Alex Brown, the trapper
guide and general bushwaeker.
Brown has made a special business
for some twelve years of trapping
sable and otter and once in a while a
bear. Every spring when the crews
h ave camp the bears usually fall heir
t > all the food stuffs lef. behind, and
Brawn has made those deserted camps
headquarters for some of his traps,
bast year he caught three bears in one
(. rnp. with one trap; and seven, all
told, were his spring work before driv
ing.
This spring he intended going into
the busi ess strong, and last Wednes
day he left the Grant farm bound for
Greenville to procure two doen traps.
He had in mind two dozen camps
around Black Brook, Bear Brook and
Ragged I,ake—camps enough to make
a large circuit, but Alex did not reach
Greenville, as he expected, and was
brought back to the Grant farm on a
cot to regain his lost strength. Alex
was tired when he reached Sins’ Hill,
and stopped to drink at the little min
eral spring under the rock just where
the road makes a short turn.
Everything was as still as could be.
he said, and he was throwing his little
bag ovpr his shoulder and shifting his
i banco quid to the other side of his
mouth, preparatory to resuming his
jem cy, when it seemed to him that an
avalanche was coming down over the
hill, and before his mind had fully
come to its usual bent he was confront
ed by a moose that had stopped short
in a career as swift as a railroad train
an.! putting like a steam engine.
Alex felt his hair go up and the cool,
clammy, chiverv feeling go up his
back. He could feel the breath of the
monster. The moose at first was eitli
t Mirp; iSt'U (lhlUUidUfU at iliarv 1111;
so sadden an acquaintance, but when
Alex's fear caused him to drop his grip
un the new axe handle and the hag fell
to tne ground. Mr. Moose made one
great spring and Alex “div right 'twixt
his legs. Afore he had got time to
turn around I fetched a leap and got
into a maple sr.plin, and that's where
I was when Ed Farrar, the totar, and
Sfove McKenna, who keeps the Grant
farm, came along with their dog and
Mr. Moose went away,” Alex said.
Alex was up in the tree eight and
thirty hours, and the moose hung close
by. When rescued the old hunter's
nerves were so shattered that he had
to be taken to the Grant farm on a
rudely constructed cot.
It is rare that a moose will tree a
man at this season of the year, but
v, hen Alex is fully recovered he will
have one more thrilling story in his
repertory of thrilling hunting tales.—

TWO QUEER WORLDS.
Oc-crv ations Which show That Venus and
Mercury Arc Half Frozen and Half
Baked.
The careful observations recently made
bv Prof Peroival Lowell, of Harvard, at
T.u utaya, Sr. Mexico, prove almost con
clusively In the minds of astronomers
:h it no human life can exist on \ enus or
M, r* iry, or if there are people there that
i 'V must be altogether different from
those of the earth, and those who are
now believed to Inhabit Mars. It has been
d' monstrated that these planets rotato
oi ly once in the full course of orbital
r-volution around the sun.
The faces which these planets thus turn
toward Che sun enjoy perpetual day,
while the further sides are wrapped in
rhese planets have, there*
f< r ir'ens It. m on or.e side and Intense
cold in the other.
On 01 «• side Venus is always glowing
in the light of the sun. Night or dark
are there unknown. A heat far
greater than any known on this earth
prevails over this half of the planet.
On the other side there is perpetual
night. No sun ever shines there. The
place is covered with ice and snow, and
vegetation is unknown.
Tin- same conditions prevail on Mer
cury. It K therefore, apparent that if
tin re are human beings upon these planets
th-v must be either a hardened kind of
Ksquimos or writable salamanders. Prof.
Lowell does not say what is the nature
of th neutral zone that intervenes be
tween the dark and light sides of these
planets.
The presumption is that hero, along
the edtf.. there mu«t be a territory of
some thou«a: ds of miles where there is a
kind of twilight un*l where- the intense
h- at of one sides fad* s off Into the Intense
cold of the other. These conditions would,
it is thought, make human life possible
in « restricted district, where vegetation
might spring up in a ring around the
planets.—N* w York Journal.

ALL HAD MOT HERS" IX* LA \V,
And t'»c Accident at the Dentist’s Gave
Them Welcome Suggestions.
"I seen a mighty queer piece o’ btisi
n, when 1 w as in. town.” said Jay
Greer., who had just returned from a day’s
> courn at the county seat. "I was stand
in' in front o' Simpson's store when T
h’ ird a sharp report—suthin’ like a shot
gun—in the dentist’s office up stairs in
the bulldin’ across the way. an’ down the
stairs bulged a feller with a big cloth
around his neck an* his mouth full o’
cement, a-splutterin' an’ a-goblin’ like all
g . whizz. Right after him came the den
tist. with his hair an' whiskers singed
off. The smoke poured out o’ the win
daws an' 1 guess the whole place would
have burnt up if the hotfk ar.' ladder
company hadr. t come ar. put it out.
-What was the matter, anyhow?” asked
Eb n Appledry. to whom Jay was relat
ing his adventures.
"That was what everybody that ran
up wantel to know. The dentist explained
that after he had tilled the patient full o' j
plaster he had started to pm in the time j
whil. it was settin’ in experimentin’ with ,
a set o’ false teeth made of a new compo
sition that had been sent him for exam
ination. lie went on to say that he had
hit > m with a hammer to test their |
strength an’ they had exploded like dyna
mite.
“When the dentist had got this far
alone in his explanation the patient man
aged to spit out enough of the cemsnt to
enable him to ask if teeth made of that
material wouldn't be liable to explode and
blow their wearer's head off if they were
bitten down hard on a bone. The dentist
replied that such would probably be the
case, and four men in the crowd who
overheard him say it hollered out that
they'd each take a set o' them explosive
teeth as soon as he could furnish them.
Ami the man who had the cement in his
mouth shouted:
" 'Me too! I've pot a mother-in-law
myself.’ "—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

A NEKVY DOCTOR.
I He Elopes With Ills Pretty Patient and
Startles Her Objecting Papa.
The old gentleman was ar.gry. That
was evident.
“When it comes to nerve." he said,
"that young Dr. Kinecn beats anything
that ever came down the boulevard.”
"What has he done?” asked the old
lady, anxiously.
“I had a suspicion all along that Mabel
got up those headaches purposely to
have him called to attend her.” explained
the old gentleman, "and now—”
"He hasn’t eloped with her, has he?”
“That's just what he has done,” an
swered th<> old gentleman, hotly. "And
that isn't the worst of it, either. "Here's
a note announcing that they're married
and a Dill for professional services that
shows that he has charged up every min
ute that he devoted to inducing her to
run away with him. It'e a mighty lucky
thing that he didn’t call on me to ask my
consent or he'd probably have an item in
there of $r,00 for pulling my hg."—Chi
cago Post.
SHE WAS ACCOMMODATED.
The vounglady in the sable cloak
rushed into the telegraph office and
rapped sharply on the counter with
the inkstand. The clerk came forward
to see what she wanted this time.
"Oh," she said, “let me have that
telegram I wrote about fifteen minutes
ago: I forgot something important. I
wanted to underscore the words ‘per
fectly lovely* in acknowledging the re
ceipt of the bracelet. Will it cost any
thing extra?"
"No. ma’am.’’ said the clerk, as he
handed her the message.
The young lady drew two heavy
lines beneath the words, and said:
‘‘It's awfully good of you to let me
do that. It will please Charlie so
much.”
"Don’t mention it," said the clerk.
"If you would like. I will put a few
drops of nice violet extract on the tele
gram at the same rates."
1 "Oh. thank you. sir. You don't know
how much I would appreciate it. I’m
going to send oil my telegrams through
this office, you are so obliging.”
And the smile she gave him would
have done anvone good to have seen,
with the possible exception of Charlie.
