As the bull saw us coming he staggered to
his fwt, in spit of hi broken lg, and gnl
li.jKtlon over tho hill. Rut the moment ho
itarb;d, my brown horso who had more
14-nso than Sf.me men I have w.-en imme
diately gave chahe. After a short run wo
again overhauled our prize, ou thositloof a
hill, near the crrt of which he was oi;eo
more halteil and stoxil at bay. Thirty yawls
away from him I pullcl up, and gozod upon
him with genuine o-'TlonLshment. Not until
that moment had I realized what a grand
prize had fallen to mo. II was a perfect
monster In size, and just as Bujrbly hand
01110 as ho was big. In his majestic pro
senco the finest of all our other buffalo bulls
were quito forgotten, and I thought to my
self: "Until this moment I havo never bad an
adequate conception of tho great American
bison."
Ho seemed to mo then, aye, and ho does
even now, tho grandest quadrujied I ever
beheld, lions, tigers and elephants not ex
cepted. His hugo bulk loomed up liko a
colossus, and the height of his great shaggy
hump, and tho steepness of it3 slope down
to his loins, seemed positively incredible.
Like Bartholdi'8 statue of liberty, he was
built on a grand scale. His massive head was
crowned by a thick moss of blackish brown
hair lying in a tumble of great curly, tufts,
sixteen inches long, piled up on each other,
crowding back upon his horns, almost hiding
them, and quite onto his shoulders. Back of
that, his hump and shoulders were CQverul
with a luxuriant growth of roarse, straw
colored hair that stood out in tufts six niches
long and opened in great dark furrows up
and down whenever the bull moved his bead
from me. The upper half of each fore leg
was lost in a huge bunch of long, coarse black
hair, in which scores of cockle burrs had
caught and hopelessly tangled. Tho body
itself and tho loin quarters wero covered with
a surprisingly thick coat of long, fine mouso
colored hair, without the slightest flaw or
blemish. From toad tcf licel the animal
seemed to possess everything the finest buffalo
in tho world should have and although by
that time no stranger. o his kind I. gazing
upon him so. completely alwurbed by wonder
and admiration that had ho made a sudden
chargo he might easily havo bowled me over.
It was an opportunity of a lifetime, such
as falls to the lot of fow men whoso business
it is to reproduce animal forms. I Etdidd
his lines with absorbir imprest, end took
ono mental photograph ot him filter another
as he stood 'there with lowered head and
angry eyes, watching me intently. Several
times his head sank
very
'ow, and ho vi-
ciously pnwed wet snow with his
wounded ' fore leg.' ' But -these intervala of
anger would pa'ss away'huf eyg v.u!d loso
some of their f'rg, und. b would content him
self wit h simply regardjftg ma
For it good mfiny minutes, I cannot say
how many, I sat there studying my prize,
and as he did not - seem seriously inclined, to
charge me, I determined to lvmkjb 01:0 or two
outline sltotehos of him' just as he stood.
Accordingly I slid off my faithful old com
rade horso, I should havo said got out a
field noto book End pencil, and with my
Winchester lying in the hollow of, my left
arm ready for usPj prpeepdea to make my
sketch. It was a sketch ' from life with a
vengeance, nt a distance cf thirty paces. I
got what I wanted, ufter a fashion, end
although the result was wholly inar tistic it
has since gei vtxi me well.
I suppose I spent a quarter of an hour in
studying my prize, and then I felt it v. an
high time to end his troubles. It was cruel
to keep him standing at all, but it was not
done for my personal gratification. Vlif a
the time canio for tha dth hot, 1 felt as a
man feels w;faen lie is compelled to kill a
favorite dog of noble breed. I had the great
beast completely in my power, and I was
obliged to bo his executioner, Jle seeiaod
.0 mo like the very last ono of his race, that
he knew it as well a3 I, end ho also was
loomed. Peoplo will say this is all put c:i
Jor effect, but I swear I felt as if I was about
to commit murder. "With tho greatest rohie
ance I ever felt about taking thv tJtv of an
miinal, I 6hot tho coble bestt,Jixou ' iu0
ungs, and he JcJ thyw Sna died.
I could write out that death scene down to
.he smallest details, if I wished; for I wroto
tall down in my journal the next night.
3ut it is not pleasant reading; and it makes
uy crime seem all the 'greater. I beliovo I
m getting tender hearted in my old days.
Tt seemed to me I never saw an animal die
artier, and his last breath led me to exclaim
ervently:
"Thank heaven! it's over at last I"'
He was fivo feet eight inches in vertical
.eight at the shoulder, full two inches taller
han the largest of our other bulls, and tho
?ngth of his head and body, in a straight
ine from tho end of tho nose tq tho rear of
he thigh, was nine feet two inches. His
irth was eight feet four inchc", and his
c. eight about 1,000 pQunds. Liko all tho
jther buffaloes we secured, he was muscular
rom excessive running, but not at all fat.
there was not a pound of fat on him, but he
carried four old bullets that had been fired
nto him without effect. Ho was what old
mfxalo hunters call a "stub horn," and by
he nine rings on each horn wo tr.ov that he
-vas either eleven or twelve years old.
Perhaps by this time I have drawn so
icavily upon my reader's stock of patience
.hat ho w-ill feel inclined to tako this buffalo
;um grano salis. Let mo assure you, 1 Lava
tot exaggerated his size" one bit. He is ad
rutted to be "ono of 5,000," and Lo who
loubts it is respectfully referred to tho old
bull himself, as he now stands, mounted ac
cording to an elaborate series of measure,
ments, in the National museum. I could
safely challenge the world to produce his
equal; but modesty forbids my doing so.

Xw System of Paving.
A newly patented pavement is said to linvo
been suggested by the surface of en ele
phant's tooth, which consists of inteiintngleu
layers of hard and soft material,' so that the
process of wearing always produces a serien
of ridges upon the surface. The new system
of paving is the idea of 1-Ir. Ranyard the.
English astronomer, and compriso.vthG use cf
blocks having- alternate hard, and soft layers,
such as i'ortkuid cement and a nurture of
sand and cement, which ore set upon edgo to
that the edges of these laminae form a wear
ing surface. The blocks aro too do four inchcr
high, and may be worn to less than an inch
without lieconiing smooth, like granite
