"While the peccary ie not, as a rule, ag.
gressive or inclined to fight either dumb
e brute or Man, it invariably makes an excep.
tion to the rule in all eases where the moun-
tain lion or the bear family is concerned.
Peccaries and lions or peccaries and bears
can't live in the same woods, and it is al-
ways the peocaries that remain. Some su-
perstitious olkl frontiersmen declare that they
are the veritable swine, or the lineal de-
scendants of them, that the oast -out devils
eatered into and played such havoc; with,
according to holy writ. If a bear
•sees a drove of peccaries before any of
them see him he may be able to sneak away
and make his escape; but if he is discovered
by the peccaries there is just as sure to be
one bear len in s. any short time, no matter
whether he is grizzly, silvertip, cinnamon,
brown, or black, as it is sure that the eun
will set to -night. The peccaries surround
him in.a second almost, and, although he
may rip and pound the life out of halt a
dozen of the implacable little beasts before
it ia atecompliehed le is only a question of a
very short time when he is torn- his entire
length by the eharp, ourved tate of
the wild hogs, and he falls among
the attacking horde, disemboweled and
with his flesh hanging in ragged
strips from hip to nozzle. Once down
the hated bear is instantly torn limb from
Umb. His flesh is chopped into fragments
and quickly devoured. Every bone is crunch-.
ed and ground so fine that a piece two inches
long would be a large one to find after a
drove of peccaries have dealt with a bear's
carcass, eo such destructive length do they
Invariably carry their hatred of the brum
family. I haye more than once come upon
a spot in the scrub of Lower California where
the disintegrating and diselpating work of
peccaries on the body of some ponderous
rilver-tip had been accomplished. The
stamped -down, blood-stained bushes and the
gonna tom up for yards around showed how
deaperately the conflict had waged. I once
found a smell piece of a bear's thigh bone on
the scene of one of these bloody combats, and
once a bear's tooth. The rest of the great
bulk of these two bears bad been utterly an-
nihilated. It is rot at all probable that any
bear of the tree-olimbing kind was ever able
„ to shuffle up the trunk of a tree, after being
discovered by peccaries, in time to escape
; eithem. I was once a witness to an attaek on
immense California broren bear by a drove
" of perhaps fifty peccaries, and that convinc-
ed me of the futility of any attempt of a bear
to escape from these unrelenting little fiends
when they once set out to do himup.
"it was one early fall day near the north-
ern boundary line of Lower California. I
was taking a stroll about in the chaperal
with no particular purpose in view,
when I heard a peculiar snort in a hollow that
sank rather abruptly off to my right. I
made my way to the edge of the depression,
which was but two or three yarela away,
and parting the bushes looked down. The
hollow was an a large openinz in an &raid.
theater of timber. Within three rods of me,
and putting forth every nerve and muted°,
the biggest brown bear I ever saw was tear-
ing up the gradual slope toward a tree that
.stood near the top of the declivivy, the
nearest and mod accessible tree to him.
Behind him, and not two jumps away, was
a plunging mass of little dumpy animals,
•seeming to be all fore shoulder, head, and
,snout. I had never seen a peccary, but I
didn't need to be told that these animals
tearing along in the wake of the bear were
-representatives of that vindictive and unfor-
,giving race. Their briatles stood erect, and
they. were so many living ploeures of unre-
eetreened fury. I had been made familiar
with the bitter feud that existed between
the peccary family and the bruin family,
and as soon as I saw the race between the
bear and the wild pigs I fele that he had no
more chance of getting up the trunk of that
tree than he had of taking wing and soaring
out of the hollow. .
" I hated bears myself, but 1 couldn't
help but feel sorry for that doomed repre-
sentative of his raoe. He reached the tree;
grasped the trunk, and had put at least four
feet between his great rurap and the ground
before the drove of peccaries swept up to
the trio like a wave. I began to think that
My fears for the bear were unfounded, and
thee, at least one member of the bruin fam-
ily could go on record at last as having got
away from a drove of pursuing pea:tames.
But I found that I didn't know peccaries
yet. That mad rush of hump -bathed demons
struck the tree and seemed to rise upward
like surf that strikes the base of a rook and
throws its broken withal of foam spitefully
toward the sttoemit of the obstacle. I never
could tell just how ib was done, but like a
flash at least half a dozen of those merciless
beasts were hanging to the flanks, the sides,
and the back of the bear, their tusks sunk
deep in his bhiek hide, while they tugged
and jerked and threw their weight malted
his clutch upon the tree. The bear's pro-
gress was not only stopped, but his powerful
getup upon the bark was broken and he fell
back to the ground. Instantly every pair
of blithe that mule' find a place to rip and
tear on the great body of the bear was out -
ting and clashing furiously. The bear hurl-
ed file evearm of pecearies right and left with

again he nattered the peeeariee and tried to

"But all in vain. The third time lie was

ana paying no attention Io the five of their

beer that less than ten minutes before had
loomed up before me in such enormous pro-
portions.
"When 1 wene back to my companions I
related to them the Ottpture and frightful fate
of the bear, and told them how nearly the
bear had succeeded in *tamping from the pee -
caries up the tree.
" 'Y ou think he'd have escaped, do you
said an old plainsman. 'Well, let me tell
you that if the bear had climbed clear to the
top of the tree he wouldn't have °seeped.
He would have only gained a respite- Pec-
caries never let up on an enemy they have
gone out to lay low as long as that enemy
is in sight. If that bear had got up the
tree the peccaries would simply have sat
down at the foot of the tree rend waited. No
matter how long they might have had to
stay there—a week, a month, three months,
a year—there they would have staid until
that bear either came down or fell down,
and they had. scattered- him to the winds.
Peccaries never give up. When they have
set their death wateh on the bear or a hunt-
er or a mountain lion or whatever it may be,
a strong guard is always left to see that the
victim does not °nape. While tome are on
guard others are off feeding, and their re-
liefs are regular and oonsbant. If bleat bear
had got into the tree there would have been
no minute of the day or night that he could
not have looked down upon a group of pee.

his eyes fixed immovably upon him. If
the bear could possibly have fastened
himself in the tree he neigh t starve to

ing that his carcass would not fall

have been only a queation of gine when,

emies bite the dust. Talk of the eCereioan
vendetta 1 It is a weak and unstable ven-
geance compared to the vendetta of the

"Subsequent information in regard to
this pitiless wild hog corroborated all that
the old frontiersman had said. Hunters have
been known to utalertake the foolhardy
teak of hunting peccaries by killing one in a
drove and getting to a safe plan in a tree,
when the entire drove will at once gather
about the tree and wait, with every eye fixed
upon the hunter, for the vengeance their
Instinct or reason orf whatever it is tells
them is inevitable. Well provided with
ammunition, hunters have been able to pith
off, one by one, every member of a drove,
and then make an escape from a tree, but it
is a dangerous risk for a hunter to run.
Every peccary but one in a drove may fall
before the hunter's bullets, but that solitary
one will remain on guard until ire dies of
starvation. lf the hunter has no ammunition
and one peccary is lef1 alive, 11 becomes a
question of wheel has the most endurance,
the hunter or the peeeary. Plaintmen are a
fearless and often reckless lot, but they
never hunt peccaries. There are too many
terrible stories as to how such rash under-
takings have terminated.
"P/aysioally, as well as morally, the peccary
seems to be an abnormal sort of a creature.
It has the general appearance and habitof
the hog, but the hoofs and the stomach
of the cow. On its back it has a gland
which secrets a musk, and three minutes
after a peccary is killed its flesh will be
entirely impregnated with the secretion.
Just what this composite construction of
the peccary is for— a reminiecence of the
hog, the OM, and the muskrat—no one
seems to have exactly found out yet. But
one thing is certain—they are tough and
abeolutely without fear."—New York Sun.
Talmage and Reporters.
Brooklyn's reporters swear by the Rev.
T. DeWitt Talmage, because he is always
ready to smooth their ways for them. The
reverend gentleman has a telephone in his
house, and when the reporters, who know
of this, ring him up and ask him questions,
they invariably get oourteous and satisfac-
tory replies. So if isn't safe to malign
Brooklyn's demonstrative pulpit orator to a
Brooklyn newspaper man. Not long since
one of the craft called on the Doctor on a
matter of news, and was informed by the
servant who answered the door that her
master was busy and would see no one.
"Bub I must see him" insisted the reporter
and so earned was his manner that finally
the reluctant girl consented to invade the
Doctor's sanctum with the visitor's menage.
Aa the reporter waited in the ball, theduloet
twang of a distant banjo smote upon his ear.
i
He listened, well pleased, for tbe nstrument
was apparently handled by one to the roan-
ner born. A moment later, however, a door
to the left opened, and Talmage himself ap-
peared upon the threshold, with a banjo
under his arm.
Come in, come in," cried the preacher,
" oapourse I'll see you. I was just plaiting
my banjo. Sit down and let me play. Immo
-
thing.' And he took the profane mann-
meat over his knee and played a thew piece
for the reporter's benefit in a way that
wOuld have made Ruby Brooks himself look
be his laurels.

Mr. Talfourd Ely., writing from Atheus
on the 111,1 insa, gams an account of an at-
tack recently Made upon hire. It seems he
wee at Aurtriteaente on the e de inst., and
told the Khan-lieepee he wee going to
Olympia next day, mentioning at the tame
time the natne ef a guide whom he wished to
accompany him, aud to whom he would give

ing, instead of the guide mentioned, a lad of

made, but; assurance was given that the lad
knew the way. After walking three hours
the lad said they must atop for the night at
Kresberea, two hours short of Olympia, Mr.
Talfourd Ely refused, and after an alterca-
tion sent the boy back with 31. pay, proceed-
ing to his destination alone. The rest of
the story, in the narrator's own words, is as
follows :—" About four hours later I heard
a shouting behind me, and saw a horsemen
apparently making signs to ma. This I
found afterwards was the brother of the
lad who had left me. Thinking he was

stepped back and considered for a moment
what to do. To close with him would be

&sanely submit to such eonduct. I faced
about. He raised his stick to strike. I ad-
vanced to draw his blow, dodged it, and with
a swinging out of the umbrella on the side of
his head knocked him clean out of his saddle
on to the ground. As the cowardly rascal
rolled over I could not restrain a loud and
triumphant laugh. But after this there
could be net peace. The umbrella was soon

larger half, and with this and my left arm

to play a waiting game, and an strictly

followed. I let go, and walked off to the Da -

shop where the Demarch was, and brought
water to wash off the blood. Then the doc-
tor put them aside, dressed the wound, gave
me coffee, and would net lee MO pay for any-
thing. The Demareh assured me that the
man was arrested, and would be punished.
A worthy peasant and his wife gave me a

than a bruised arm and a broken pate. There
I met some Engliahmen, who urged me on
public grounds to lay the matter before the
British Consul. This I did the following
morning at Pyrgos. Mr. Fauguier, our
Vice-Cotunul there, forthwith brought the
ease before the authorities. They took my
deposition and sent their doctor to examine
tny wound, vvhioh he assured me was not

in the Greek papers, and has attracted the
attention of the Prime Minister, and of our

The correspondence elicited by the recent

°ideate should reassure the travelling public.
As has been so well said the fatalities con-
sidering the number of passengere oarried,
are really very few. Lest year, according
to the official statistics, the railways of Can -
ilia handled 11,416,791 passengers. Of that
huge number thirty-nine were killed in
collisions or other accidents to passenger
trains. The nu.mber—one in every 300,000
is, of course, large enough. It would be
well 11 110 trains could be run without; one
fatality, but the re3ord is far smaller that
would be suspected by those who have read
from time to time the accounts of railway
disasters and have not stopped to ooneider
that for every train that meets with a mis-
hap there are thousands that pass to their
destination without even the remotest risk
of an accident.
