A Thrilline Adnentnre.

We question whether in the history of
"hair-breadth' escapes, a parallel to the
following can easily be found. The story
was tod us by an old and valued friend,
now residing in the country near this city,
but whose early days were spent near the
tragic adventure here recorded
We give the story as related to us, in
the words Of the hero:
" 1t was about the year 1905 that set
tied in Virginia, near the fall of Kanawha.
The country at that time was an unbroken
wilderness. But few settlements had been
made then by the whites, and they were so
far apart as to render vain all hopes of as
sistance in case of an attack from hostile
Indians--numbers of whom still infested
the neighborhood.
~ lived there alone with my wife for
several months unmolestcd, and by dint of
perseverance being then young and hardy,
had succeeded in making quite large
clearing in the forest, which had planted
with corn, and which promised an abundant
yield,
"Onc morning after we had dispatched
our humble meal, and bad just prepared
to venture forth upon my regular routine
of labor my attention was arrested by the
tinkling Of cow-bell in the coru-feld.
"'Therc, said my wife, the COW is in
the corn-feld., *
g But the ear Of Che back-woodsman be-
comes By edpcatioD, very acute, especially
80 from the fact that his safety often de-
ponds upon the nice cultivation Of that
sense. [ was not so easily deceived.

saidI ia reply to the rcmark of my wife,
was not the tinEle of a bell npon the neck
of COW, 1t is a deeoy from some Indian
who desires to draw me into ambush.
Believing this to be the case, j took
down my old muslset, I'll had 10 riae,) and
seeing that twas properly loaded, / stole
cautiously around the field toward the point
from which the soy,nd seemcd to proceed.

What's Trumns2

There are so many cards to play;
So many ways to choose, Fts
In Love and Politics and War;
Tint forwarding our views
With ladies fair, with statesmen wise,
Or men of lesser bumps,
Before we lead our strongest suit, ~.
IT'S we'll to know what's trumps.
Once, worshipping at beauty's shrine,
knelt in bondage sweet,
And breathed my VOWS with eagcrness,
And offered at her feet ~.
My soul, well stored with Cupid's wenlth--
A love cementea lump
A king of diamonds won the trick;
My heart was not atrump.
Raying to see my rival win
Upon a single rub,
AS he played the deuce with me,
followed with club
Two days within n station house
Rclecting on my sin,
I found, as others may have done,
Clubs very seldom win.
Grown wise by sad experience,
ceased to deal with maids;
shuffled youthful follies off,
And turned UP jack of spades.
Yet still find as dust is scarce,
And smaller grow the Jumps,
That though the Spades an honest card,
1t is not always trumps.
But in world OF outside show,
Where Mammon rules the throng;
To ease the little jolts of life,
And smoothly pass along;
To find en antidote for care,
And stern misfortunc's thumps,
One card is very sure to win;
Diamonds are always trumps!
