The Squirrel Hunt.

\ gray squirrel was busy one pleas
ant autumn day In gathering nuts and
storing them up for winter in the hol-
low of an old tree. A farmer was chop
ping wood not far of, and his axe rang
loudly through the forest, but this
sound did not trouble our squirrel, for
he had heard 1t often before and knew
that 1t meant no harm for him.
But there came ether sounds on The
air-children's voices and the barking
of dog. At this the squirrel started
IN alarm The children saw him and
gave a loud shout, and the two dogs
that were with them went tearing after
the frightened animal, making the
woods ring with their fierce yelpings
The dogs were so close upon the
poor squirrel when he saw them that
escape seemed almost impossible But
close by there lay hollow log, and in
to this he darted just as one of the
dogs was about seizing him.
We've got you now, old fellow !"
cried the children as the dogs sprang
into the hollow of the tree to seize the
squirrel But squirrel was not so
easily caught. He was smaller than
the dogs, and could go In a great deal
farther to keep out of their reach
The dogs barked and yelped and growl-
ed, but it was of no use. Squirrel was
safe from their teeth.
And now the farmer came up with
his axe, and seeing how it was, said to
the children and dogs:
"Just keep off minute and I'll get
him.
And so he raised his sharp axe and
began cutting down into the log.
What was that which struck him
smart tap on tbs head2 Only nut,
dropped by Mr.. Squirrel from the tree
above him where he sat looking down
Ear away from danger. Squirrel had
been in that log many time before
and knew just how to get out of it at
the other end. He had whisked
through like fash, and was spring1ng
up into the tree at the very moment
when the dogs were looking for him in
the hollow of the log.
The farmer cut away with his axe.
not needing the nut that fell upon his
head, but when he had laid the log
open from end to end no squirrel was
to be found.

THRILLING BALLOON ADVENTURE.-A
very exciting balloon ascension was made
at Dayton, Ohio, a few days since, the
aeronaut being one Professor Torrey. The
balloon was inflated with hot air by means
of furnace set in the ground, the chimney
or tube for insC rtion in the mouth If the
balloon being section of steam boiler.
Just as the rising balloon cleared the tube,
the flame flashed tiercely and set fire to it.
The ropes were let go, when the immense
canvas globe inflated with the heating air,
rose rapidly upward, the daring aeronaut
clinging to a trapeze suspended from be-
meath with ropes, and performing num-
Der of graceful feats as the air-ship scared
aloit, and was borne along by the wind,
which was blowing almost gale at the
time. Meantime the fire, which had been
communicated to the lower portion of the
balloon at starting, continued to blaze
around the edges, but the professor, ap-
parently oblivious to the dangerous posi-
ton in which he was placed, kept up his
daring feats on the trapeze, hanging alter
nately by one foot or one hand, and per-
forming sundry graceful evolutions while
carried along at an elevation ol about one
thousand feet from the earth. The balloon
was borne eastward for some distance by
the current, when the heated air having
cooled il commenced a rapid des 'ent, land
ing about half mile from the starting
point. While approaching the earth with
| considerable force the balloon came in con-
tact with willow tree, when the professor,
releasing his hold of the trape2e, took ref
uge in the branches. and broke his fall by
seizing hold of limb, which gave way,
and he came to the ground, ending his
| perilous journey without serious injury,
though his ankle was slightly sprained by
the concussion. The ascension was wit
messed by hundreds of people, who were
thrilled with the spectacle of the daring
aeronaut dangling in the air, and perform
ing astonishing acrobatic ieats, while Tho
flames threatened to consume the frai
bark which bore him along.

y great ado was made in this state few
years ago by pous, law-abding people,
because a certain sheriff with more SYM
pathy than sherilfry in his soul, softened
the sunerngs of the poor wretch by Civ
ing him a handkerchief moistened with
ether. Whereupon there was stentorian
shout and most dismal wall lest the pillars
of the state should suddenly fall. We sug-
gested at the time that ii the object of
hanging is to nflict suffering, then why
strangle to death? Torment all that is good
for the victim and needful for the safety of
the state; but do not kill. But If the OBJ
iect of the hanging is to remove the Grim
ina from this world, to push him ont into
the unathomed and awful mysteries hid
behind the thin screen of death, why make
the killing unnecessarily painful? Why
not smooth, as best we can. the exit of the
poor wretch from world in which he IL
no longer wanted, and cannot he suffered a
longer stay A? Is not official killing bad
enough in and of ITSELF without encum-
bering and environing il with needless suf-
ferlngs and horrors? We are glad to see
that these questions are beginning to at
tract serious attention both in England and
in this country.-Gotdef Age.
