BuOked Over a PreClpice.

George Clement, of Oakland, a school
teacher, narrowly escaped death, yes
terday afternoon, while huntingin Halls
Valley, about fourteen miles from town.
He came across fine buck and fired.
The animal fell to the ground and lay
as if dead. Mr.. Clement hastened up
to the body and was engaged in an in
spection of its fine proportions when the
animal suddenly sprang up and rushed
on him. Mr.. Clement was taken un-
awares, but instead of retreating he
grasped the antlers of the infuriated
animal and for a few moments held him
at arms length like wise. They stood
facing each other several moments,
when the hunter began to yield gradual
ly to his most formidable antagonist.
The buck finally seemed to be infused
with new life, and, with a desperate
effort, hurled the hunter over cliff
They both rolled down together to the
bottom of the precipice, about eighty
feet. The buck was killed before he
reached the bottom, and Mr.. Clement
had his collar-bone broken and sus-
tanned severe bruises. When Mr.. Glenn
ent was able TO arise he orawled up the
cliff. and, after a great effort, managed
to reach his horse. He rode to the
nearest habilaticn, suffering great pain.
DIR. Caldwell, of San Jose, was imme-

visited the sufferer. The man is now
at Skaters ranch, in Halls Valley,

a REMARKABLE murder case recently
came before the Criminal Court at
Beauvais, in France. The manager of
private lunatic asylum at Villiers was
accused of the murder of an inmate
named Appert, The asylum contains
lunatics of a quiet disposition, who are
employed in agriculture, and Appert,
who'was of a sullen temperament, but
manageable if treated mildly. refused
to obey an overseer's order to proceed
to work. Estoret, the manager, coming
up, began to abuse him, and Appert
was about to rush on Estoret, when
the latter snatched a cane from a cup
board. The cane, however, broke, and
Appert struck Estoret twice with a
shovel, but was overpowered by the at
tendants. He was then struck by Es-
toret, and on his resisting an order to
undress 20 undergo a cold bath, Estoret
administered a blow on his arm which
fractured It. After the bath, Appert's
arm was dressed, and nc was kept out
of the doctors sight for five days
One of the keepers urged that he
should be sent to the intrmary. Esto-
ret, feigning consent, placed him in a
covered cart, and apparently started for
Clermont, but, diverging TO by-road,
strangled his victim and buried him in
the ditch Of a potato field. Returning
10 the asylum, he stated that Appert
had escaped. But he had been seen to
diverge from the road; the marks of
the cart were traced, and the body was
ultimately discovered with a cord still
round the neck. On his arrest, Estoret
alleged that he killed the man in self
defense.

The Grievances Of Women.

l was making an insignificant journey
in company with q married pair, be-
tween whom there was the most perfect
understanding and good intelligence.
The lady wore a pair of very shabby
gloves, to which, by some accident or
other attention was called The husband
was shocked and ashamed. cone would
think" he said, "that L could not af-
ford to buy you gloves" He had no
wish to be illiberal-he was fond of his
wife and proud of her and very willing
to keep her in gloves and anything else
she wanted, but he had no feeling of
right in the matter; no sense that her
position ought to be anything else than
that of absolute dependency. In this
respect, however, the most liberal and
the most generous men are often as
much at fault as the coarsest. They
will not allow the Importance of the
second part in the universal duet. They
will give literally and praise freely, but
they will not acknowledge @My wife
has as much to do as l have. Without
her work mine would not have half its
value; we are partners in the toll of liV-
ing and she has earned the recompense
of that toll as well as l" No one will
say this, nor will the world acknowledge
it. What the world does say when a
woman outside Of the bonds of mar
riage claims to be allowed to work for
her bread as she best can is, that she
ought to go back to her proper sphere,
which is home, but in that proper
sphere and at her own individual work,
all credit is taken from her, her exer-
tions are denied, her labor is UNDER
valued. The only chance for her to get
her work acknowledged is to do it very
badly, when there will be an outcry.
But when it is well done it is ignored,
it Is taken as a matter of course, it is
never thought upon at all. Let this be
contrasted with the reverse case-a case
by no means unfrequent, though left
out of account in all popular calcula-
tions. When it happens that the woman
is the richer of the two partners in life,
when the living comes from her side,
or when she earns it, she is considered
bound TO assert no consciousness of the
fact. 1t is a horror and shame to all
spectators when she makes any stand
upon her moneyed superiority. That
she should let it be seen that she is the
supporter of the household, or remind
her husband that he is in any way in
debted to her, is piece of bad taste
and bad feeling for which no blame is
too severe. And the woman herself is
the first to feel it so. But that which
seems the depth of meanness and un-
generosity in a woman is the natural
and every day attitude Of the man. 1t
is point of honor on her part to ignore
to the length of falsehood her hus-
bands inferiority to herself in this re-
spect; whereas the fact of her depen-
dence upon him is kept continually be-
fore her eyes and insisted upon, both
seriously and jocularly, at every point
OF her areer.-Fraser's MagGzii1e.
