BRUIN TACKLED THE EXPLOSIVES WITH DISASTROUS RESULTS. i Narrow Escape of a Workman on a Rail- road Who Had Encamped in the Wiids of Montana The Bear Pays Dear for His Stolen Supper. Few of the workmen engaged in the construction of the great Northern Ruail- | road in Montana but knew Jim Robin- } son, or, as he was more popularly | known, “Dynamite Jim.” He gained } the sobriquet, says the San Francisco t Call, by a report becoming current that j he was in the habit of carrying dyna- mite cartridges in his clothing, which made several of the more timurous of his fellow workmen refuse to sleep in the same tent with him at night. An explosion which, luckily, caused no loss of life, but damaged consider- able trestle work, was attributed to Rob- inson’s carelessness in handling dyna- mite, which made the contractor dis- charge him. Finding it impossible to get any more work on the railroad Rob- inson started for Choteau, a town about eighty miles distant. He took an old trail which skirted the left bank of the Good Medicine Creek, and towards evening he had reached a place much frequented by hunters during the sum- mer season, as bears are said to be very plentiful in that region, but Robinson was not aware of that fact. Feeling tired he camped for the night beneath the shade cf a large cottonwood tree, about 100 yards-from the east bank of the river, and within full view of the snow-capped summit of the Rockies. Leaving his blankets on the | ground, he collected “deadwood” with which to make a fire, for the nights in that region are cool even in summer. When the fire was built and lighted Robinson sat down and began to eat canned meat and craekers. The second mouthful he swallowed he was startled by hearlng a growl just behind him, which made him drop the food on the ground and brougut him to his feet with ajump. Looking,he saw coming to- wards him atarapid gait and with mouth wide open, a huge cinnamon bear. He gave a bound for the cottonwood tree, which he climbed with a rapidity which afterwards astonished himself. As luck would have it, the tree was a large one and had a convenient fork about twenty feet from the ground, Before the bear reached the tree Rob- inson had climbed into the fork, and throwing his arms about the limbs, clung to it with grim determination, while the bear put his huge forepaws against the trunk atid shook the tree like an aspen. Failing to shuke Rob- inson out of the tree, the bear uttered several deep growls and then went sniffing towards the fire and began to eat Robinson’s little store of pro- visions. Robinson took advantage of the bear’s absence, and getting a rope | out of his pocket tied himself firmly to the tree. After devouring Robinson’s supper the bear began to tear the blanket, in _ which he found a hard, shiny substance, which he tried to eat, but finding it too hard he dropped it between his twe forepaws and thea brought it down with a smash on a rock beside the fire. A terrific explosion rent the air, while bear, tons of earth, and pieces of rock | went skyward like a flash. | Ashort while afterwards a party of hunters who were camped in the vicin- ity were attracted to the scene by the noise of the explosion. They found Robinson in a dead faint in the tree. * One of the party climbed up to him, and, cutting the rope, lowered him to the ground, where he soon recovered. Strange as it may seem, he sustained no injury, but his clothing was literally stripped from his body by the force of the explosion. A few pieces of flesh almost the width of a man’s palm were all that could be found of the bear. The canse of the explosion was a large cartridge of dynamite which Rob- inson carried in his blanket and which the bear exploded by concussion. Rob- inson received a suit of clothing from one of the hunters and afterward re- sumed his journey. An Intelligent Tourist. There are some people who know it ' all, and others who think they do, and the latter are apt to make the greatest show of knowledge. One of this species stood near the bow of a Champlain steamer one day. He hada remarkable sunburned com- plexion, he carried a guide-book in one hand, three railroad time tables and a map in the other, and he was bursting with information. Finally, unable to stand it longer, he approached a small man who was leaning thoughtfully over the rail. “My friend,” he said impressively, “I suppose you know that those gray and fallen-walls over on the west shore are all that remain of the world-famous Fort Ticonderoga?” “No, I didn’t know it,” said the smail man, simply. “Well, sir, they are. It was on that spot that the English commander was called from his bed to surrender in the name of the Continental Congress. It was along the:e shores,” added the man with the ruddy complexion, waving the fluttering time tables oratorically, “that the French and Indians fougit the English. Every stone, sir, is crowded with history.” “Ticonderoga, hey?” said the other, roflectively. “Do you live up here?” “No, I live in New York.” “Born here, perhaps?’ “No, sir.” “Travel up and down the lake pretty often, I suppose?” “Well, no; this is my first trip,” reluctantly admitted the owner of the guide-book. i “Tis, hey? Well, I was purser of this boat for nine-years, and I know every foot of that shore. That ruin over there is Sampson’s dock, and Ti- conderoga is ninteen miles south of here.
