CAME BACK FOR REVENGE,

Htlit II Oat.
One day while proceeding up a
canyon in the Kuton mountains, a
large silver-tip hour and her cub leap-
ed uut mid made a rush up tho sloplug
side of the valley to oseupo from our
society. There were throe in our
party and every Winchester begun to
talk very earnestly nnd excitedly.
The cub tumbled •loud the first fire. 1
call hltn n cub. but truth is be was
uieru than half us larife as his niothot
and weighed 240 pounds. Tho old
lady did not show uny injury nud the
moment tho young one tumbled, she
turned and curnu baulc square in thn
tooth of the rlllcs, and seizing her
duud child in her mouth us u uut does
a kitten, raised it fairly clour of the
ground uud cunterod up the hill—
uo easy matter, as, aside from the 340
site had to. force hoc anxious, loving
way through onk brinh which In many
instances might have detained a steer.
Sho got fairly away nlholt wo flreu
several shots after the cub felL W«
h:id just reloaded the m >gazlne of our
Winchesters nnu wore communing as
to letting the trail oi the old bear,
whlok showed wido and clear in
broken bushes and disturbed oak
leaves and pinn needles, wliou look-
inir up we beheld our game coming
back straight for us 8he mount
business, too. iler red nnd stenmlng
tongue was tolled uut of her half open
mouth and her eyes partially closed
In rage would have seemed quizzical
in expression wore it not for the
ferocity which leaped and flushed In
their depths like sheet lightning be-
hind sorno cloud screen. She came
Biruight to us and wo settled her
troubles at tho tlrst fire. Wo found
the cub up on tho divide. 8he had
carrlnl it at least sixty rods, with two
bullet tioies in hot- shaggy hide mwi
found when wo sfc&uf&l her.

A Litorsry Conversation.
A charming dcbutiinlo met a dis-
tinguished lawyer ut a reception and
was much fluttered when he asked
leave to call upon her tho next even-
ing.
llcnt on mulcing1 herself agreeable
she consulted with her girl friends re-
specting his likes and dislikes, his
hobbies, etc.
••Oh. I'm nearly ■cured to death."
She confessed to one sympathetic
tnuidun. "Thev say he's bo awfully
smart, and I'm certain I won't talk
well enough to please him. Now,
you've known him a long time. l)o
tell me what subjects to discuss so 1
pan run homo and get ready for him."
"Well," suggested the kind-hoar led
friend, "literature is his fad, so you
can't go wrong if you turn tho conver-
sation In th it channel." Having se-
cured this valuable Information Miss
Budd hurried homo comforted nnd do-
voted the rest of the day to reading.
Promptly at 8 o'clock the young
lawyer was ushered la tho drawing
room, whore ho found Miss Budd
(l.ioroughly posted In literature)
awaiting him.
"Wasn't it a dollghlful reception we
attended last evening?" ho asked by
way of onoiilng tho oonversutlon.
. "Oh, yos," w is the enthusiastic re-
sponse, "but wasu't that sad about
poor Mary Queen of Scots? They out
her hond off, you know."
I regret to state that nolthor history
nor tho young lawyer hits recorded the
rest of this very literary conversation.
