IDLE MOMENTS.
" BY MRS. L. G, SMYTHE,
To my Konored friend, S Y Tupper.
Idle toments, idle moments
It is said will make us sad,
Ab! my friend, these idle moments
Are oft the sweetest we have had.
Pleasant moments idly driftlng,
Somewhere down life's summer
sea,
So full of bright and happy dream
ing
Aregwect, my friend, 50 sweet to
. me, ?
Busy moments, full of toiling,
Tired ways that lead through lifs,
Eager grasping, vainly, vainly ho
ping
Years of pain and careloss strife,
Aud the brain is hot from throbs
bing,
And the heart grows cold with
pain,
So it is the idle moments
That doth light our seul again.
Busy moments bring the harvest,
Busy moments oft are bedt,
Yet the idle ones doth solace, . .
Hidden grief within our breast,
Just a moment from the striving,
Jurt a rest along the road,
There the burden’s lifted geatly,
And lighter seems the heavy load.
Just a moment from the battle,
Quite apart from noise and din, *
There we press us bravely onward,
Cheered by peace that glows with~
in,
So we need these little moments,
For they give us hope and rest.
Gol in heaven help us ever,
Till the clods lie on our breast,
For our staff oft seemeth broken,
Ere the journey quite is done,
Ere we pass away to glory,
To the land beyond the sun.
So we'll prize these idle moments,
Little sunbeams, every one,
For they make the heart grow
firmer,
And the goal is bravely won,

DEADLY WORK OF THE

Interested Spectators on the

Novel Battle.
New-York Sun.]
“I beloaged to the Engineer
corps that surveyed the route for
the Northern Pacific railroad,” said
Amos RN Smith, now of Jersey
City, ““and one day, while seeking
a little recreation, I was a witness
of a scene in wild western life which
I have no doubt there are plenty
of people would travel far to see if
it could only be reproduced, but
which I wouldn’t be a spectator of
again for a good many round gold
dollars.
“I left our camp 2t Young Meu’si
Buttes one day in July to try my‘
luck at trout fishing in the head
waters of Big Heart river, a small 1
stream five miles from camp, The
weather had been hot and dry for
some time, and when I got over to.
the river I found the head waters
were not much betier than dry
land, all the moisture I could find
being little puddles here and there
in the ved. The only water likely
to be found in that quarter with
fish in it was the Big Cannon Ball
river, and that was twenty miles
away, so I concluded that the best
thing tor me to do would be to
march right back to camp. There
was a heavy thicket along the north
bank of the stream, some distance
above where I came out on the dry
bed, and a few cottonwood trees
standing maybe a hundred yards
back trom the bank. As I turned
to retrace my steps I saw a small
herd of wild cattle standing off to
my right. Among them was a
young bull, and a more splendid
igecjnwx; of an animal 1 never saw.
e and the rest of the cattls were
eyeing me with suspicious curiosity,
I didn't like the appearance ¢f the
bull, tor he liad a way of lowering
his head, throwing dirt with his
fore feet, and uttering an ominous
801 t of bellow that seemed threat=
' enmg. Iturned and walked away,
-moving toward the cottonwood
‘trees. [ looked bick over my
: shouldet, aind saw the bull coming
‘along aftet me. T increased my
iupeed, and 80 did he, until T was
running my fastest and the bull
‘was doing his best behind me. 1
‘can't say exactly how it was done,
Wm of ‘these eot:
tonwosd trees, out ot reach of the
bull, who was immediately under
‘the tree, pawing dirt and acting
‘very mad. T shall always believe
‘that I was hoisted into that tree
by the bull, although I had no evi
dence to show for it.
“The bull pawed and grumbled
under the tree for a few minutes,
and then turned and walked toward
‘the thicket, on the creek, side of
which. there was no water hole,—
The other cattle went quietly to
grazing where I had first seen
them.
“I suppose the bull started tos
ward the thicket to get a drink at
the water hele, but he never got
the drink. I saw him push his way
into the thicket, and the next in
stant I could see that he had got
into troulle of some kind, and that
trouble proved to bea grizzly bear.
A fierce struggle followed in the
thicket. The tops of the bushes
swayed to and fro, and Jeould hear
the hexvy orash of driftwood as the
‘two powerfal animals writhed i
ifiereo embrace. A cloud of dust
rolled up from the spot. It was
'not distant over 100 yards from
‘the tree in which I had taken ref
! uge. Scarcely two minutes elap
sed before the bull broke throuzh
L&hvm His bead wae covered
-with blood, and great flakes of fle:h
i hung from his fore shoulders. But
instead of shewing any signs of des
'feat he seemed litterally to glow
| with defiant rage. lustinet had
simply prompted him in his retreat
‘to seek an open space. He was
lithe anl wiry, yet wonderfully
-massive about the shoulders, come
‘bining the rarest qualities ot
strength and symmetry, For a
~moment he stood glaring at the
‘bushes he had retreated from, his
nostrils distended and his whole
torm fixed and rigid. But scarce~
ly had I time to note all this when
the bear, a huge, repulsive looking
brute, broke through the opening.
He was'the most formidsble speci
men of his kind I had ever seen,
and my sympathies were at once
with the bull in spite of his belig=
erent attitude towards me a few
minutes before, but I had my seris
ous doubts about the final result of
the combat that began at once.
“The combat wasa trial of brute 1‘
force that no words of mine are
adequate to describe, When the“
bear made his appearance out of 1
the thicket the bull did not wait
for his contestant’s charge, but, l
lowering his great head to the
ground, he rushed madly upon the
bear. The latter seemed to appre- 4‘
ciate the abilities of the bull, and ‘
summoned all the wariness of his
nature to his aid. He waited until
the bull was almost upon him, and ;
then sprang aside with marvellous
quickness, seized his assailant’s
horvs in his powerful grasp, and
pressed his head down against the
ground by his great strength and
the weight of his enormous body,
biting at the bull’s nose and tearing
the flesh from his neck and shouls
ders with his long sharp claws.—
This position was maintained for
at least five minutes, the bull strug
gling desperately to free his head,
but being unable to accomplish it,
while the bear put forth every mus
cle to press the bull's body to the
ground. . The blood poured from
the bull's nostrils in great streams,
but the bear had as yet received no
apparent injury. ;
‘‘Presently both animals paused
in their desperate struggle, a« gach
was blown and rapidly approaching
exhaustion, The bear did not re
lax his hold he had obtained on his
coutestant. As yot during the
fight neither animal had uttered a
sound, except their loud and la.
vored beedthing, The cessatiott in
the struggle had probably been ot
ten minutes’ duration, wheti stid~
denly the bull made one despetate
lung; broke the motionless but ter
rible embrace, hurled the bear from
off his head, and backed away,
probably ten paces. The bear litt
ed his huge form on his haunches,
and stood . ready foi the next as
sault. The herd of cattle had by
this time gathered in from the plain
and surrounded the combatants,
| moaning and bellowing and . paw.
m; up the ground but maintain-
Lihg"u terrified neutrality. From
my position in the tree I watched
the exciting scene with breathless
““The bull did not remain at rest
intevest.
a moment after backing away for a
new charge, but, rendered furious
by his wounde, he gathered all his
energies, and with an unearthly
cry rushed with impetuous force
aud ferocity upon the bear, The
latter attempted to use the tactics
that had served him so well at the
first onslaught, but, the second
charge of the bull was irresistible,
in spite of the bear's terrific blows
with his paws, and the grizzly went
down in the dust before his erazed
antagonist, and vainly tried to des
fend himself. The bull thrust his
horus under the bear, caught him
in the belly with one of his sharp
weapons, and with one furious
sweep of his head tore the grizaly
open until bis entrails protruded.
Then the grizzly rose to his feet,
and with a roar that made my
blood run cold closed with his tere
rible enemy, and for along tine
the two fought, their cries and the
cries of the surrounding cattle
being trighttul to liisten to,
“While the fight was going on
two great eagles appeared from
some mysterious aerie and sailed
and circled ahove the scene of the
confliet, leisurely and gradually
dropping nearer to the earth. Al
most simultaneously with the aps
pearance of the eagles I saw the
heads of half a dozen hungry
wolves emerge from the bushes
where the fight had begun. I knew
that the battle must soon end, and
that the eagles and the wolves had
scented the contest from afar, and
knew by their infallible instinct
that it must result in choice prey
for them. The presence of these
hungry birds and beasts of prey
added to the terror of the bloody
conflict.
‘The terrible fight continued.
The ground was torn up and cov
ered with blood for many feet
around, Both animals were gres
viously wounded. It was plam
that neither could hold out much
longer. Maimed and gory, they‘
fought with the certainty of death,
the bear rolling over and over in l
the dust, vainly trying to avoid
the fatal horns of his adversary, ‘
‘and the bull ripping, thrusting,
and tearing the grizzly with irre~|
sistible ferocity. At last, as if de
termined to end the conflict, tlte’
bull drew bhack, lowsred his head, |
and made a third terrific charge, 1
but, blinded by the streams of
blood that poured down his face,
he missed his mark, stumbled and
rolled headlong on the ground. In
spite ot his frighttul injuries Bnd |
great exhaustion, the bear turned
quickly und sprang upon his pros
trate enemy. He seemed to have
been suddenly invigorated by this
turn ot the battle in his favor.
With merciless sweeps of hiz huge
claws he tove the flesh in great:
masses from the bull’s up-turned
side. The advantage the bear
thus obtained over the bull seemed
to be understood by the herd, and
the bellowing increased, dirt was
thrown about in‘clouds, and one
big cow drew near the struggling
animals, and I believed for a mo
‘ment that she intended to go to
‘the aid ot the herd’s prostrate
leader, so fierce was her aspect and
: actions; but she simply circled
around the bear and the bull, bel
lowing and pawing, In the mean
i time both the eagles and the wolves
“grew impatient of the delay in the
battle’s ending' The ficater would
now and then swoop down, as if
to hurry up the finish, uttering
{ bareh cries, and some waiting wolt
would steal front his .covert and
tidke a eloser and mofe courageotis
reconnoisince, snappitig and snurl
inng in apparent disapporntment, -
‘The bull and the “bear rolled
over and overin the terrible death
stroggle. Nothing was now to be
seen biit a heavy; gory mass dimly
perceptible through the dust. As
to weight; the two fierce and de~
termined brites must have been
about equally matched. The bear
had the advantage of greater agili
ty and the expert and. telling use
of two terrible weapons, his teeth
and claws—while the bull - repre
sented more inflexiblé courage and
greater powers of endurance - The
uafortunate result of ilie bull’s lnet
charge on the grizzly indicated that
the latter’s qualities. would in a
few minutes mare settle the fight
against the bull, and I was in a
momentary expectation of seeing
such a termination, when to my
astonishment. I saw the bear relax
his efforts, roll over from the body
of his prostrate foe, and drag him
self teebly away from the spot.
His appearance wns sickening to
me, sv frightfully had he been rips
ped and torn by the bull’s horns.
The grizzly had no sconer abans
doued his attack on the bull than
the lattar was on his 'feet, bearing
hirself erect and fierce as ever. If
the bear’s appearance was sicken
ing,gthe bull’s was doubly so. He
was covered with blood from ks
forehead to his ramp, and his flesh
and skin actually bung in strips
and tatters from his head and
sides, Giving hiz head a snhake
that scattered blood in a shower
about him, and gave him a mo
ment’s sight of the reeking bear in
front of him, he lowered his
head for the fourth time, and
again made oune of his terrific char
ges. When the dying bear had
dragged himself away from the bull
the eagles actually swoopen down
upon him, and the wolves sprang
from the thicket into the opening
and prepared to pounce upon him.
The bull scattered the impatient
birds and animals as he swept on
his final chlrge against the grizzly,
and they hastily departed, shriek—
ing and snarling. The cattle again
added their bellowing to that of
the bull’'s, and acied as if they un~
derstoed the favorable turn the
fight had taken. As the bull hurl
ed himself against the grizaly, the
latter braced himself for a last dess
perate struggle. He struck out
widdly with his paws, and the hull
fell back with the force of the griz~
zly’s blows, presenting a ghastly
spectacle. His tongue hung from
his mouth a mangled mess of
shreds. His. face was stripped
bare of flesh to the bone, and his
eyes were torn from their sockets,
The charge was equally disastre
ous to the bear, he being ripped
completely open, and he sank to
the ground writhiag in his agony.
The indomitable courage of the
bull here prevailed. Blinded and
crippled as he was, he made but a
slight pause afier his fourth assault
and then dashed widedly at his foe
again, The grizzly’s roar now
seemed to be one of terror. With
a last frautic effort he sought to
make Lis escape, serambling and
staggering through the dust. But
it was useless. His great strength
was gone. The bull plunged his
horns again and again into the
huge form of the dying brute as he
lay stretched helpless in the dust.
The bear’s muscles quivered and
coutracted. He drew his immense
paws up once or twice in econvule
sive clutches, raised his huge head,
gave one agonizing groan, and fell
back dead. The victrrions bull
raised his bloody, horribly disfigur
ed crest, gave voice to a deep bels
low. and, shaking his head trium
phantly, turned and walked away.
His progress was slow and painful,
and he stopped and turned at short
intervals and listened, as if to
kvow whether his foe would renew
the battle. He walked nearly a
hundred yards with his berd gathe
ering and bellowing about him.
Presently his head drooped from
its proud position. He spread his
legs apart as if to brace himselt
against the weakness that was
stealing upon him. Buddenly he
