Up to two yeirs ago the cattlemen had
consllerahlo trouble on their drives owing

S There was great abundance of water in the

But little expense Is attached to tim conS -
S structlon of these rescrvoir , a alto being selected -

During the freshets in the sprg these
reservoirs are filled , and they retain the
water. clean and pure , owing to the high
S - altitude , until after the cattle shipping sea-

The experience of the railroad company encouraged -
couraged the farmers in that locality to try
. this system of storing water for irrigation
urpoees. A. few made a beginning last

S \ that many are putting them in this year.

AN AGGRESSIVE COYOTE.
w , A. hurt Campbell Is a hunter and
trapper of many years' experience in Wasco
county , says the Portland Oregonian. Many
trophies of the chase adorn residences and
buolners houses on The Dalles , which are
from wild nsriinals kilied by Mr. Campbell.
lIn invariably receives county scrip for
bounties at every session of the county
court , and prizes every fail from tire fair a -
sociation. One day quite recently he hind a
most unusual experience , and one which
has probably never before been dupiicted.
While making the rounds of his traps he
came upon one about 3 o'clock In tire after-
troon whIch held a coyote.
The animal watched Mr. Canrpbohl'a approach -
preach without fear , and , indeed , tugged at
its chain in tl'e effort to reach him. When
within about fifty feet the coyote succeeded Iii
extricating his foot , and Instead of fleeing ,
made for the trapper , dotermincil upon giving
battle. Campbell was so thoroughly aurprlsad
ho stood motionless vatt'ng its approach.
No one aver before had hoard of a coyote
that would attache a man unrtler any cir-
cumatairces , and Campbell sbppoed It would
surely turn and run before reaching him.
flut not so. The coyote socn reached Mr.
Campbell and fiercely atacked him. As it
jumped for him ho throw an arm around
its neck and tried to strangle it. The aninnal
proved too atrong for these tactics and Campbell -
bell bored his bold with one hand in order
to get a knife from his pocket. While. doing
this the coyote bit his leg. through a pair
of chaparajoa. If it had not been for the
leather garment the wound would have been
nLuch more severe. flut Campbell now got
his knife out and quickly clocad tire battle by
plunging It repeatedly In the animal's ribs
and cutting lri throat. lie at once wesit to
town and bad the wound drersed. Mr. Cainpi.
bell will probably save that pelt , as nrem-
orablo of tbe only coyote fight ever recorded
in trappers irirtory.
WHY THE SPRINGS AflE HOT.
A wonderful and Interesting diecovory has
been made near Arrowhead Springs by
Thomas llatt p. a pioneer resident of San
flernardin.o. arid the owner of a big ranch
near the foothIlls , says a San Bernardino
dispatch 'to ' the San Francisco Call. He has
found the probable source of the warm water
In and about Arrowhead Springs.
Hatten started In quest of sheep that 'wero
missing. Following an old trali over Waterman -
man canon he came upon a natural basin
formed by rocks. While gazing about the
little valley ho saw at a dlstanco of about
50 yard. a thin wlrito column of smoke issuing -
ing from behind a boulder. Believing it was
a campfIre , he wont toward it to ascertain
if the campers had seen Iris sheep. When
Hatten reached tIre rock lie found no sign
of life and the smoke had disappeared.
Hattert determined to Investigate. The
big boulder was In the way , and he went
to a quarry some distance away and procured -
cured dynamite. One of the quarrymen
named i3urke accompanied him back. They
put a big charge of dynamite under the rock
and It was blown to atoms.
From the spot 'where ' the boulder stood
Issued a sireet of flames , throwing out intense -
tense beat. After the flames subsided the
men approached the spot and discovered
a cave of scme depth , at the oottom of which
there appeared to be flowing lava. It 'will
probably be some time before the cavern can
be fully explored , owinG to the intense heat
issuing from its mouth.
In various parts of the mountains In the
vicinity of this discovery are lava formations.
Scientists have b'rei trying for some timu
to fathom 'the origin of the many warm
springs In and about Arrowhead. but the
honor of the discovery has fallen to flatten.

\Vlu'0 etatiormeil at Fort Keogh , iii the far

coirI rarrding tire army , was tire owner of a
very. pctty pair of Pets that were the wonder
and admiration of every one wire raw tirern.

and remained 'no the very be.'t of terms w4th

Captain Baldwin's company , then at Fort

capturing arid tanning animals "ferae natura. "
Among others was the youmrg buffalo above
referred to , who had romohow drifted fin
among tire post lrerd , and , being rounded up
witir tire others , was made a priscner whnen
quite a calf. The youngster was gentle and
tractabld enough at first , and playfidly butted
the soldiers rlgirt. and left witirout time icat
attempt at being irostile ; but as ire grow
older his belligerent uature began to assert
itself , and one day , having had a personal
dlmclty with the kiugof the domertie irerd ,
ire cirased all the rest.of the animals out of
the corral , and was himself cba.oed as far up
tire Yellowstone valley by Iris big enemy' ' that

Anotlrer pet of Captain Baldwin's men was
a black bear cub tinat had boon captured in a
neighboring canyon by a party of Chmoyecire
Indians. The little fellow was brougirt to the
barracks anti put into conifortabie qrrartera ,
where he lost rio time in making friends with
tire comparry cat. Ho was tauglrt'to do ncv-
cml tricks , anicnig otlrers tlroso of boxing ,
jumgglng air empty barrel with iris pavs , and
dancing to tine tcne of a fiddle. As ire grow
older Ira had more liberty , the only restraint
put upon irimn being a small wooden chair to
which ho was chained. Pete , as ire was
called , would go all over tire post carrying
the chair In iris paws , and when
ho found a comfortable node or rlrady
corner that pleased him tirere lie would sit
for Inourti until iris faurcy moved him
to go somewhere else. Peto' reputation as a
trurmtwOrtlry bear , however , was spoiled one
day when ire was caugirt rerl.iranded in an
attempt to escape. lIe was found far up the

anti tins failing , tire brute was to be shot ,
Tire trap didmr't work , but tirree or four

Those are only examples. They are sum-
