cleared space, with every stump burning,
and the ground covered with ashes, Goals
and burning branches. Beyond the
clearing the forest was strange, lone
some sight. Some trees had burned,
some were burning, and others had been
robbed of leaves and smaller limbs, leav-
ing the blackened trunk landmark to
appal the hearts Of future settlers. We
could not leave the cave that day or that
night, and the next morning everybody
was nearly dead with thirst and ex-
hausted with hunger. The pioneer and
myself carried wife and little ones nearly
half a mile over the the baked and smOk-
ing ground to a creek, and were FORUM
ate enough to find the half-roasted BODY
of deer in the blood warm water. The
animal had lain down in the water to
avoid the heat, and had been literally
roasted alive, as the water was not over
six inches deep, and the heavy fringe of
bushes on either side of the creek had
blazed freely.
1t was a walk Of eleven miles to ham,
let-a place which had escaped only by
change Of wind and the continued ef-
forts Of desperate men and heroic women.
Thousands of acres of valuable timber
had been ruined. A green wilderness,
through which the deer bounded and
the fox and rabbit softly made their way,
had given place to such picture of des-
olation as the human eye seldom rests
upon. Dozens Of pioneers had lost every
thing

cts the entry doors being opened to
let the wolf out, +" he said in reply "Ah,
there he is"
glanced out of the window and saw
the squire alone in his gig, smile on his
face, his whole bearing as cool
and unconcerned as if there was not a
single enemy within thousand miles.
Then l heard the great doors clang to
and as they did so, the crowd gave vent
to a howl of delighted rage
At the first appearance of the squire in
his gig, the people had swayed back and
left an open space in front of the hotel.
Now they seemed to close in on him, and
one man in the front stopped to lift a
stone. Quick as lightning the hand of
the squire went to his breast, and Just as
the man stood upright to throw I heard
the sharp crack of pistol The man ut
tered wild shrek of pain, clapped his
hands to his checks, and plunged into the
crowd. The bullet had entered at one
cheek and gone out at the other, after
tearing away few teeth in it's passage.
The man was the very person who had
made the mistake in shooting at me over
night.
"a near nick that for our friend" said
the squire, in his clear voice, while the
crowd swayed back pace or two. "But
the next will be nearer still, and I've
nearly half dozen still left. Now, will
any of you oblige me by STOPPING to lift
q stOneW
He paused and glanced round, while
every man in the crowd held his breath
aOd stood eli DC O ctoty1o
Ono? you won't oblige me- he said
presently, with sheer. Then fierce as
if in charging SEINE world-famous battle
"Outof the way, you scoundrelf! Faugh-
a-ballaghp'
At the word, he jerked the reins, and
the mare moved forward at trot with
head erect, and bearing as proud as if she
knew conqueror sat behind her. Then,
in utter silence, the crowd swayed to
right and left, leaving wide alley, down
which the squire drove as gayly as if the
whole thing were some pleasant show.
When he disappeared, the crowd closed
in again, utterly crestfallen. Then for a
short time the whole air was filled with
their chattering to one another like the
humming of innumerable bees; and
presently, without shout, and without
a single stone being thrown, the great
mass melted away.
Next morning at an early hour, left
Sligo as fast as a covered conveyance
could carry me. [ did not care to wait
for the slower means of escape by foot,
fearful that next time a mistake was
made with me the shooting might posi-
bly, be better than it was at first.

Rival Cities.

Between St. Petersburg and Moscow
there exists an antagonism of long stand
ing. Ever since its foundation ST. Pc
tersburg has striven to be European
city, and to adopt all the products of
West European civilization. Moscow,
on the contrary, strives to be distinct
lively Russian, and affects to look down
on her younger rival as half-caste par
venu. Abandoned by the Imperial fam
lily and the heads of administration, she
glories in her ancient monuments and
her ancient spirit, and boasts that she
still holds the first place in the venera-
ton and love of the Russian people. All
Muscovites are more or less imbued with
this Platonic hostility to the capital on
the Neva, and love to reproach its lnhab-
itants-the Ministers and other official
dignitaries not excepted-with gross lg-
norance of Russia and the true Russian
character; but when they come to dis
cuss the present and future OF their
country, they are by no means unani-
mous.-London Examiner.

What shall do to be forever known?

Think st thou perchance that they remain unknown

BY angel trumps in heaven their praise is blown
Divine their lot"
What shall do an heir of endless life?

Yea, with thy might.

Who Destroyed the Roman Colosseum

The spelling of the Colosseum has been
traced to some Of the spoilers by the dis
covery of a number of very curious
documents. These documents consist OF
cheques of payment from the secret
treasury of Popes Nicholas v, Plus H.,
Paul IL, Alexander VI, to workmen and
contractors, for pulling down, smashing,
burning into lime or carrying to the
Vatican stones and marbles from the
great amphitheater. One OF these
CHEQUES is for 2O5 ducats, and is signed in
favor of certain Giovanni Foglia Lom-
bardo, who removed from the Colos-
scum 1922 carloads of limestone from
September 1, 1451, to May 81, 1852.

American Zine for Europe.

The works Of the Lehigh Zinc Compa-
ny, at Bethlehem, Pa, are now running
day and night on New Jersey ores, filling
foreign orders Last year the Zinc Com
pany filled an order from Europe of $780,,
900 pounds of spelter, and on April 10
they made the first consignment on
another order of $4,000 pounds. The
spelter shipped last year-three 50-ton
lots-Was the first zinc that was sent to
Europe inquantities. It is possible that
sample quantities had previously been
exported, but no large shipment had ever
been made. The spelter now going
abroad will probably be used in the man
ufacture Of cartridges instead Of lead.
