When the light above fails and the ice batteries boom, they feel his presence, and turning noses to the failing stream, they bide the issue. To them come mink and otter. Only these two can outwit the bear. They know certain unfilled rivet holes in the icy armor and its occasional ﬂaws. Through these they slide to harry the helpless quarry. But the bear has orders to obey. His business is to see that the Law of the North is heeded. When the rallied forces of the South again rush northward, he must Slowly fall back, disputing every league of field until the last furious charge drives him to the berg-piled, impregnable stronghold of his king.

Cypress, Jr. The thunderbolts of Jove had triumphed, and impious Typhaeus stretched his prostrate length along the groaning earth. Glad Sicily was laid upon the conquered monster, to keep him down; for Jupiter knew well enough there'd be another bloody fight, if ever he got up. Upon his hundred heads rested alarmed old AEtna, covering all save a few long straggling locks. The imposition of such heavy weight, of stone, and wood, and water, bore not the vanquished foe, with dutiful submission; bore not the inhumation, and thanked the hand that buried him; but up against the blackened sky, ingrate, from his rebellious bowels, belched such showers of ashes, and clouds of smoke, mixed up with lava and lumps of coke, that Ocean roared with fear, and AEtna's peaceful seats reeled, and rolled, to and fro, with terror and dismay. The God of Tartarus upstarted at the din, heard in his house profound, all trembling, lest his roof should suddenly be cracked, and daylight enter, and the ghosts get out, and he be overwhelmed with suits for the escape. Up! up! thou wary jailor! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In the customary course of field adventure, few besides the individual concerned are much interested in the successes and disappointments he experiences; and rural sports are, in all their general incidents, so essentially alike, as to render their minute description almost invariably a dull and unprofitable record.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Plain and Peak: Sporting and Other Sketches of Bohemia and Tyrol But Far stronger than any class prejudice, there exists in Bohemia the most intense racial hatred. Whilst the inhabitants of the south and central portions of the country are mostly Slavs, those of the north and the Saxon and Bavarian frontiers are German. The Slav hates the German, and the German reciprocates the feeling with interest. The Slav will speak nothing but Bohemian, even if he knows German; the German longs to see the Bohemian language forced out of existence by Act of Parliament. It is the Old struggle of centuries - the struggle of language and nationality - still going on. This racial hatred is the greatest danger to the Austrian Empire. An Austrian does not say, I am an Austrian but, I am a Bohemian, or, I am a Viennese, or, I am a Moravian. It is not the glorification Of the whole Empire that he looks for, but that Of the portion of it to which he himself belongs. Austria's peril lies in the fact that she consists of a conglomeration Of particles, each one of which wishes to be independent of the others.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sporting Notes in the Far East I am no hand as an Author; but this little volume compiled from my shooting journal, is penned for the use of kindred sport-men in the Service, as a "Guide" to portions of the Coast shooting on the China Station. The greater part is written from my own experiences during three years spent in Far East, with a few additional notes kindly supplied by brother officers. I am in hopes, from the information contained, that on a ship going to a strange port, it will partially obviate all the valuable time lost, and the labour expended, in looking for places where game is likely to be found; which spots, in a great many cases, are only discovered a day or two before the vessel sails and when too late! To a few of the discriptions of the several places I have attached a small map, depicting the most probable ground on which to find sport. Again, as at some harbours little incidents have occasionally occurred which might prove interesting to some readers, I have related them at the end of the shooting directions for those places.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Racing and 'Chasing: A Collection of Sporting Stories IN these days, when so many books are issued, some excuse seems to be required for the publication of a volume Of reprints. I can only plead the cordial recep tion which was given to my former books, Sketches in the Hunting Field, ' and 'race Course and Covert Side, ' by the critics and the readers to whom I eu deavoured specially to appeal. The world Of sport may be a limited one, but that its limits are enormous cannot be doubted by anybody who surveys the crowd at Epsom on the Derby Day, or at Aintree when the horses are at the post for the Grand National. I have to return thanks to Sir william ingram for the kind permission he gave me to republish those Of the following stories and sketches which appeared in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News' during the years that I edited that journal.
