HUNTING.
A IKRXLIJX * STOBT OF THE flHIBB
Snlilvam eouaty cor. N. T. Times.
One of the most f&mons pnthw
hunters that ever lived in
countj Traa Ne ! iu Crorker , cf the
town of Bethel , whose farorito hunt
ing grounds -rrere around WhiieLake ,
now a popular resort for htfr.drods o
New York peoplo. In 1820 ho was
camping iu ttmwoods near Big Pond.
One day ho and his dog itruck the
trail of. seven panthers on the edge o :
"Painter" tvan.p. He followed the
trail a long timz , and then , becominc
hungry , at down on a log to eat his
lunch. Suddenly bin dog began to
"briatle up" and growl , and a huge
panthar sprang from a tree near by.
almott touching Crocker's arm as it
passed by him like a flash. Crocker
caught up his gun , but the panther
had disappeared in the woods , followed
by the dog.
TEW DOGS "WOULD FOLLOW FAHTUERS.
Crocker's was an exception. It
oveitook the panther and a " fight en-
aued. Iho dog was soon "whipped ,
and came running back to his master ,
who had proceeded to the scene of
the contest. The panther took to a
tree , and u Crocker w&a taking aim
to fire at it , ho discovered another
panther rmhing toward him from the
swamp. The hunter directed his at
tention to this one , and shot it. By
this time he heard the ecreaming of
panthers in every direction , and as
his dog could not be induced to ren
der him any further aid , Crocker
deemed it prudent to retreat from the
iwamp. He was followed by two of
the panthers for a long distance. In
getting away from them Crocker loet
his wolf-skin hunting hat , that he
prized very highly. He reached his
cabin in safety , and was 10 angry with
himself for being beaten by the panthers -
thers , and for being so cowardly as to
leave his hat in their midst , that he
determined to return aud recover the
hat ,
SECTO * THM SKUT OF THE FANTHHR ,
ho had shot , and kill others if the
opportunity offered. He waited urlil
the next morning and then went back
to the swamp. Crocker's dog , having
recovered from the effects of its fight
of the day before , accompanied him.
Crocker found his hat and alao the
carcass of the panther he had killed.
While he was busy skinning the latter
he looked up and saw a large male
panther watching him from the crotch
of a tree. He fired at it , and it fell
wounded from the tree. It ran im
mediately to a chestnut sapling and
climbed to the top ot it. The sapling
bent ovr with the weight of tha pan
ther until it touched the ground.
The dog seized the panther , but the
latter hurled him twenty feet away
with one blow of its paw. It then
advanced on Crocker , who had no
time to load his gun. The dog fled ,
and Crocker followed it , with the
furious panther in close pursuit.

and the panther ran to it to inspect it.
That probably saved Crocker's life ,
ashewasabletoget out of the swamp ,
beyond which the panther did not
follow him. Crocker again cursed
till cowardice , and going to the cabin
took his hunting axe and went back to
the swamp. He had only entered it
a few yards when the wounded pan
ther sprang out of the bushes and
made for Crocker without delay. The
bunter stood hit ground , aud when
the panther jumped upon him it received
ceived the blade of the hunting-knife
clear to the hilt iu'its heart. The
thrust was a lucky one for Crocker ,
: cr both fore pawa of the panther
were on his shoulder , and its vriao
> pen jaws at his throat. As it fel >
sack it tore the hunter's clothing off
Tom the shoulders down. Leaving

came bounding toward him from tree
to tree. Crocker waited until it was
crouched for tha spring that was to
Drlng it upon himself , and then fired.
The panther leaped1 , but fell dead at
the hunter's feet , Crocker took the
skins from his three panthers , and
lost no time in breaking camp in that
vicinity , aa ho did not care to take
the chances against a swamp full of
inch dangerous game with no dog to
depend on for aid. After having had
lundreds of hair-breadth escapes from
wild animals , Crocker finally sent a
Dall through his own heart , because ,
after abstaining for more than a year
Tom intoxicating liquor he allowed
limself to get drunk on * day on a
innting expedition.
A New Hair Bestorar.
iyratusa hundav Times.
It was one of the by-laws of Heart
ache's Heavenly Hair Raiser that it be
ised liberally before retiring , rubbing
it well into the scalp. Just before he
went to bed that nigbt the man bolted
the back door , put the cat in the wood
shed , came in whistling the "Fatinit-
n" waltz , danced up to the , clock
shelf , and pouriug out what ho sup
posed to bo his hair fertilizer , he mop-
ded It all over his scalp and stirred it
well in around the roots of the little
hedge of hair at the back of his neck.
The glue bottle , by an unearthly coincidence -
cidenco , was nearly the same shape
and siis as the hair tap bottle. He
went tc bad."George , " said his wife ,
turning her face to the wall , "that
stuff you're putting on your hair smells
like a pan of soap grease. " "Per-
baps I had better go up stairs and
sleep , " snarled George. You're
mighty sensitive 1 You wouldn't ex
pect that a man can put stuff on his
bead that will make his hair grow and
bave it tmell like essence of winter-
green , would you ? " They went to sleep
mad as Turks. This particnUr bald-
headed man , like a good many other
bald-headed men , had to get up and
buld ; the fires. When he arose next
morning tbo sun peeped in at the
window and saw the pillow cling to
the bic'i of his head like a grent white
chignon. At firat he did cot realize
i > ia condition ; he thought it must
have caught on a pin or K shirt bu'
ton. It looVol ridiculous , and he
would throw it back on the bedbefo * *
his wife saw it , so he caught it quick
ly by one end and "yanked. " ' 'OhI
ohl Darnation to fish-hooks , what's
been going on here ? Thunder and
lightnuig ! ' and he began to claw at
his fccalp like a lunatic. His wife
sprang up from her couch and began
to sob hysterically. ' Oh , don't ,
George. What is it ? What'a the
matter ? " George was dancing about
the room , the pillow now dangling by
a few hairs , his scalp covered with
something that looked like sheet cop
per , while the air was readolent
of warlike expletives , as if a diction
ary had exploded. With a woman's
instinct the poor wife took in the sit
uation at a glance , and exclaimed ,
"It is glue. " The bold-hoaded man
sat down a chair and looked at her a
moment iu contemptuous silence , and
then uttered the one expressive word ,
"Glue ! " K"ow began a series of pro-
ceises and experiments unheard of in
the annals of chemistry. "Jane you
must soak it off with warm water. I
have got to Utica to-day. " "I can't ,
Georg V she replied in a guilty tone ,
'It's . " "Yes
waterproor. , Imlghthave
known it ; and it's fireprcfof , I suppose ,
too , ain't it ? " He scratched over the
smooth plating with his finger nails.
"It's hard as iron , " he said. "Yes-
he eaic it W33 good glut ) " repeated
ahe innocently. "Can't you skin it
off with your razor , George ? " "Don't
be a bigger fool thin you are , Jane.
Got me that coarse file in the wood
shed. " It may be imagined what fol
io wed ; aud now as tha bald-headed
man sits in his office he never removes
his hat , for his entire skull is a howl
Ing waste of blistered desert , relieved
lero and there by caios of black court
plaster.
Keeping Winter Apolea.
T. H. Hoaklns in Rural Now Yorker.
The question is being discufied as
to whetner a dry or wet cellar ketps
apples best. A writer in The New
York Tribune sys apples keep excel-
eut'y in his collar , which is a wet one ,
mi cites the remark of an experienced
) uyer that whenever he entered a cel-
ar and ws compelled to walk on
joarda to keep out of the water , he
was sure to find the fruit In good con
dition. On the other hand , many
rriters recommend a dry cellar as the
) cst for keeping apple * . Who shall
decide the question ?
That water is not injurious to the
ceeping of apples , even when actually
n contact with them , is shown by the
act that they keep perfectly well on
he ground under leaves all winter. A
riend of mine living in Montreal
ay * that , seeing some very fine Fa-
raeuses exposed for sale in the city ,
le inquired how they were kept. He
earned that they were part of the
argo of a canal boat whick had sunk
n the canal and was frozen in before
t could be raised. When this was ef-
ected in the spring , it was found that
ho wgt ) of apples , which would not
lave kept much longer than January
u the air , had been preserved per
fectly in the water. An old custom
of buying spples in the ground , the
fame as routs for winter storage ,
also demonstrates that moisture in
cjutact with apples does not necessa
rily cause rotting. In Russia I un
derstand that apples are preierred in
tight barrels with water , in the w y
practiced in this country with cran
berries. On the other hand apples
scop perfectly in dry cellars , as mny.
fruit growers can testify.
V > hat then is the esaental exquisite
for the safe winter keeping of this
fruit ? Simply , I believe , tha preser
vation of a low uniform temperature
as near the freezing point of water as
possible. This can be maintained in
dry cellars , but which moro easily and-
perfectly , I think , in wet ones. Tha
presence of water has a controlling
power over ' the variations of tempera
ture near'the freezing point , as all
know who have had to keep water in
A cold cellar to keep it from freezing.
The moisture does no harm to the
apples. It may even be a direct
benefit in preventing evaporation
from and consequent withering of the
arples , though this evaporation is
very alight nt the low temperature
necessary in fruit cellars for success in
keeping apples over until spring. In
Cauada apples are rarely stored for
keeping in house cellars. A special
cellar is made , deep , with thick stone
walls bid in mortar. These walls rise
above the surface only about ten
inches , to allow of small windows for
ventilation and light. There
is a double door above filled in with
moss and sawdust. This floor is
covered by a roof-like attic and the
apples are kept until the approach of
severe frosts , when they are sorted ,
barreled and lowered into the cellar
through a trap-door , which is then
closed and packed in the same way u
the floor. At times during the winter
when the weather is not freezing this
cellar is opened and fruit removed for
sale. When properly made and man
aged there is little or no loss in the
way of storing winter apples.
Wymoutn Eoclc Fowia.
This new breed of fowls seemi to
bo taking everything by storm. The
Brahma ; , Leghorns , Dorkingi , Co
chins , and other breeds occupy less
and less space at our fairs , while the
show of Plymouth Rocks takes their
places. This breed is of American
production , and grows to a large size
the coeki turning the scale at from
nine to twelve pounds , and the hens
at from six to eight. In color they
are like the Dominique , having blue
feathers barred with black , and the
more distinct the bars the better anc
mnr * valuable the fowl. The plumage
of the hens is much darker than that
of the cocks. They have straight ,
rather small-sized combs. They
Inuld have bright yellow leg * , but
most of the pullets have , dueky or
brownish legs , which much detract *
trom their beauty. They are good
layers , sitters and mothers , and make
fine table fowls. The chicks grow
more rapidly than any other breed ,
and feather quite young much sooner
than Brahma * ir Cochina. They
have taken the public by storm , and
no breeder's yard is now complete
without bis pen of Plymouth Rocks.
A. TRIAL OF STRENGTH.
WHICH THB COirSUMPIlTB PBOTKS
WORSE THAN THE BAD MAW.
Kansas City Star.
On the corner of a public square a
man has in operation a muscle-testing
machine , which is operated by the use
of a sledge hammer , with which the
individual who wishes to size up his
muscle strikes a peg , which operates
upon a lever and elevates a dial board
marked with numbers. On Saturday
evening a big red-shitted man walked
up , and after surveying the machine ,
expectorated over his shoulder and
casually remarked that ho "could
knock the stuffing outof the machine"
at one fell swoop. "I am the man
who swallows a beefsteak , I ami" he
yelled , and the spectators shuddered.
"I am a bold , bad man ! " he contin
ued. "Won't somebody give me a
whirl ! " No one accepted the chal
lenge.
"I am lately from the headquarters
of Bitter Creek , " went on the bad
man , and asked the proprietor of the
machine how much he would give him
to "bust U the firat lick. "
"I don't want it busted , " replied
the proprietor.
"I can make a piece light on the
oomique , " screamed the bad man , "and
another piece descend at the junction ,
won't somebody please give mo a show
lor my white alley ? "
A pale , thin , puny man who looked
as if consumption would kill him be
fore breakfast , yawned a little , and
said he believed he would eive him a
whirl , just once tor the beer.
The bid man looked at him
and smiled a contemptuous smile.
"I want a great big man. Somebony
that I can tackle with pride and honor
to my family , bat 1 won't nit hard. "
The bad man threw the sledge grace
fully , nit the peg , and the dial
marked 120 pounds. The thin man
picked up the sledge as if he was right
tired , and tapped the peg for 240.
The bad man was a little surprised ,
and seizing the sledge , spread himself
and sent it up to 300 , retiring with a
triumphant look. The consumptive
yawned again , and hearing the sledge
with one hand , marked 400. The man
who swallowed a beefsteak was puz
zled , bracad up , and , after swinging
the maul until - his eyes
hung out on his cheeks , he hit with
terrific force and fell on his back ,
while the dial shot up to 425. The
consumptive man toed the mark , ex
pectorated on his bands , hit the peg
once , broke it short off , splintered the
sledge , shivered the show-window
across the street , with the concussion ,
and went down in his pocket for a
chew of fine-cut , while the board
scored up to 1119 and hung over the
top , unable to go further , with stan
chions torn loote. The bad man from
Bitter Creek turned to the coniump-
