A CHAINED SOLDIER.

Ex-Sergeant Ignace Hof, the well-known
keeper of the Arc de Triomphe, was once
considered a spy by his Partisan friends.
He is now, and deservedly, the most popu-
lar of living French heroes has been award
ed every distinction and substantial recon-
mendation which it is in the power of
thankful nation to bestow, and is to be pre-
sented with splendid rifle by public sub
scription. But it is none the less fact and
painful one that when he was made pris-
oner by the Germans, at the battle of Cham.
pigny, the rumor obtained currency that he
was only Prussian in Disguise, who had
found at last convenient opportunity of
making good his escape. At that time, be
it noted, the man had been for more than
six weeks Shooting, upon an average, one
German day. In view Of the crowds Of
Partisan admirers brought to the outposts
by the renown of his prowess, he had him
self received more than 20 bullets in his
uniform, to the extent of having six or seven
times to petition for new suit, without ever
being wounded. There was in his extra
ordinary good luck, as well as his unerrng
skill, something truly wonderful, which
caused for him in few days quite ropu-
tation.

AN INDIAN TRADITION OF THE
GREAT FLOOD.

One morning water for washing was
| brought to Manu-, and when he had washed
himselfa fish remained in his hands, and
1t addressed these words to him: "Protect
me and I will save thee" "From what
wilt thou save me2" "a deluge win sweep
all creatures away; it is from that l will
save thee" "How shall protect thee ?"
The fish replied: "While we are small we
run great dangers, for fish swallow fish.
Keep me at first in vase; when become
too large for it, dig basin to put me into.
When l shall have grown still more, throw
me into the ocean then shall be preserved
from destruction" Soon il grew large
fish. 1t said to Manu-: "The very year
shall have reached my full growth the
deluge will happen. Then build large
vessel and worship me. When the waters
rise enter the vessel and l will save thee"
After keeping him thus, Manu- carried the
fish to the sea. In the year indicated Manu-
built a vessel and worshipped the fish. And
when the Deluge came he entered the ves-
sci. Then the fish came swimming up to
him, and Manu- fastened the cable Of the
ship to the horn of the fish, by which means
the latter made it pass over the Mountain
of the North. The fish said, 81 have saved
thee fasten the vessel to a tree that the wa
ter may not sweep it away while thou art on
the mountain; and in proportion as the wa
ters decrease thou shalt descend" Manu-
descended with the waters, and this is what
is called the descent Of Manu- on the Noun
tain of the North. The Deluge had carried
away all creatures, and Manu- remained
alone

A RARE FEAT OF COURAGE.

A brave lad has just performed a rare
Ieat Of courage, common sense and presence
of mind in Berlin, in the presence Of very
few observers. A milk cart, containing no
one but little girl about three years old,
was being wildly dragged along the Muh-
lenstrasse, by a furious horse, and no one
dared to rush at the bride of the galloping
beast. A boy, apparently not more than
thirteen years old, sprang forward, and roll
ing large empty tub, which was standing
at a shop door, into the center Of the road.
This brought the horse TO an instant's pause,
and when be tried to pass at its side the boy
seized the bride and hung on, at the same
moment throwing up his legs, and clasping
them tightly round the horses neck. This
heavy burden in so unusual place brought
the terrified horse to a stand still, and the
bystanders hurried up, and lifted the little
girl out Of the cart. While all manner Of
questions and soothing speeches were being
addressed to her, the hero of the action
quietly slipped away, no one knowing his
name or dwelling.

ANECDOTE OF ROYALTY.

The lady who is now Crown Princess Of
Germany was, as the child Princess Royal
of Britain, veritable "little witch" A
certain distinguished physician, who was
often called TO Windsor, was always famil-
iarly addressed by the merry child as
"Brown." In vain the Queen tried TO in
duce her small daughter to grace Browns
name with some sort of prefix. At length
she was peremptorily informed that if she
ever again ventured to make use of this un-
ceremonious style of address the punish
ment would be an instant dismissal 10 bed.
The physician reappeared in a day or two,
and was greeted by the young lady with
these words "Good morning, Brown, and
good night, too, Brown, for I'm of 70 bed,
aud she at once 'beat a retreat"

"Now you're shouting" he said with some
enthusiasm. "Nice road, eh2 Fast time

ductor shouts 'all aboard you can hear him

like a headlight. Stop over checks are Civ
en- on all through tickets; passengers can
drop off the train as often as he likes, do the
station two or three times and hop on the
next revival train that comes along. Good

sengers feel more at home. No passes; every
passenger pays full traffic rates for his ticket.

"Ah, ha p said the brakeman, "she's
daisy, isn't she? River road, beautiful
curves sweep around anything to keep
close to the river, but it's all steel rail and
rock ballast, single track all the way and
not side track from the roundhouse to the
terminus. Takes heaps of water to run it
through, double tanks at every station, and
there isn't an engine in the shop that can
pull pound or run mile with less than
two guages. But it runs through lovely
country these river roads always do river
on one side and hills on the other, and it's
steady climb up the grade all the way till
the run ends where the fountain-head of
the river begins. Yes, sir, I'll take the river
road every time for lovely trip, sure con-
nections and good time, and no prairie dust
blowing in at the windows. And yester-
day when the conductor came around for
the tickets with little basket punch,
didn't ask him 10 pass me, but l paid my
fare like a little man, twenty-five cents for
an hours run and little concert by the
passengers throwed in. tell you Pilgrim,
you take the river road when you want"
But just here the loud whistle from the
engine announced station and the brake
man hurried to the door shouting.
"Zionville This train makes no stops
between here and Indianapolis |"
