While Mr.. Hunt was exhibiting his bug
Captain Sam, the Piute Chief, came in
with Charley of Silver City. Sam re-
marked, with smile of superior knowl-
edge; "Circus bug, you bet!" The
Piute stretched a string between two

the insect, and say that when it appears
in the fall with gold marks on~its back

death and white spots famine. Aside
from the absurd superstition the bug is
certainly a wonderful thing, and its
antics vastly amusing. Mr.. Hunt re-

to whom our story refers. 4 roor fisher
man, with his wife, 4 growing up daugh.
ter, and two younger s'ns, constituted
the household. The time is Coristmas
eve, and though the season is not cold or
frosty, the strong gales blowing ON that
iron bound coast prevent the hale, hearty,
and generally successful fisherman from
plying his usual calling.

OF a clear turf fire which has been burn.

naturally reverts to him; while the "col-
leen,". whose lover has gone to that Gland
ofpromise,," sits moodily listening to their
remarks, and occasionally, but rarely 1n-
.trudes her'own opinion on the elders.
Being Christmas eve. the larder almost
empty, and the gale blowing 80 bard that
there is'n no possibility OF putting out to
sea, they are planning how to make the
morrow pass as cheerfu!ly and happily as
they possibly can. ...
