A DREADFUL SACRIFICE.

A strange and tragic story is that
of crazy woman who wanders
among the mountains about Parton
heiuu, in Bavaria. A short time ago
she was the handsome and happy
wife of a man who had but one evil
habit-that of poaching, One night
he was pursued by a forester, and
turning he shot the man. The deed
was seen by others, and he was
obliged to fly. With his wife and
two children, one of them an infant.
he went toward the Austrian from
tier, and at night while all were
sleeping concealed in a thicket, the
sound of hoofs were heard. Touch
ing his wife's arm, the husband
whispered; "The gendarmes. y
She started so suddenly and SO VIC
lently that the infant resting in her
arms awoke and began to cry. The
father told her to keep it quiet, and
the poor mother held the little one
closer to her breast endeavoring to
stop its cries, while the gendarmes
halted and seemed to be listening
Then her husband laid his hand up
on the child's mouth and held it
there for the ten minutes he remains
ed quite. When at last they rode
away, the child was dead The
family went on its way, and at the
frontier the Custom House officers
Inquired if they had anything to de
clare. Nothing" said the murder
en- but the unhappy mother uncoy-
cred her dead infaut tod her
Hretched story, only to lose hen
reason in the conflict of wifeIy and
motherIy affection.
