Aaron Burr and Mrs. Hamilton.

When on an official visit to the United
States in 1853, L spent day or two at
Mr.. Stuart Brownies place on the New
Jersey shore of the Hudson River, above
Hoboken. General Taylor, Of Ohio, was
another guest, and as the house was at
no great distance from the spot where
the fatal duel between Burr and Aamll-
ton took place (July IL, 1900, conver.

acteristics, public and private, of the two
men. General Taylor told us that when

Hamilton, and Aaron Burr, who had re-
turned to the States after his enforced
absence in Europe, in consequence of HE
proved reasonable practices. Burr was
then an old man, but still retained much
of his former confidence and manner, es-
pecially with ladies. To the astOnlsh-
ment of those who knew him, on discov.
cring that Mrs. Hamilton was on board
the steamboat, he approached her, tooB
off his hat, and bowling, said: MRS.
Hamilton, believe? My name is Burr. "
The effect upon the lady, now we'll
stricken in years, was electric. Rising
from her seat, she gathered up her dress,
as if to touch Burr with it would be con-
tnminntion, drew herself up, and looking
at him from head to foot, swept away
with dignity and grace worthy OF her
best Gays, and left him standing abashed,
if he were capable of feeling so, before
the spectators. Burr replaced his hat
,.pcr his head, and slowly moved back
to the soat he had left purposely to make
this experiment upon the feelings
of the widow of the man he had
slain, for one can not suppose that he
had any intention to apologize or explain,
since this was impossible. Notes and

A Thrilling Sketch.

One warm day in August, upon the
bank Of the muddy Colorado, we chill
dren were lazily sitting about on the
ground. One sister was strineinS beads
taken from an old moccasin, and most
OF the men were sleeping under the
wagons through the heat Of the after
noon. There was great stiffness upon
everything, save for the ohildren's chat
ter, and heat rose from the ground
that smote the eyes. Suddenly there
was q dreadful scream, echoed, re-
echoed, multiplied then another, and
another, as when one strikes the hand
upon the mouth, till in one second Of
tune the air seemed rent and torn with
yells. In just that second the close
chapparal had become black with Indi-
ans, who had crawled, serpent-like, on
hands and knees, till, right upon us, in
concert they could leap into sight. They
wore cloths upon their loins, and had
some feathers wound in their hair, with
hldeous paint glowing on face and
breast gazed in dumb amazement.
benumbed with surprise, and then t
think awoke to the excitement of the
occasion. The women and children,
through an air thick with flying arrows.
were marshaled into one covered wagon,
and there my mother wrapped us ali
round with feather beds, blankets and
comforters: do not think I was fright
ened, not because of any precocity OF
courage, but because of O. Wild excite
ment that filed me. I half leaned upon
the knee of my sister. She said she was
conscious of no pain, she felt no sudden
pang, but something warm seemed
running down her side, and, looking
down, she saw an arrow which had
pierced her flesh and protruded it's finty
head from the wound. "Mother." she
exclaimed, CT am shot," and tainted,
My mother, the woman whcse spirit
never failed her in this or the dreadful
trials which succeeded this disastrous
fight, put forth her hand and drew the
arrow backward through the wound. It
was while thus supporting the head of
the girl she supposed dying, it somehow
became known to her that her husband
was lying quite dead and filed with ar
rows under the great cottonwood tree
under which the camp was made. It was
but few moments more till one Of the
men spoke from the front of the wagon.
Saidhe: "Our ammunition is giving out
and we do not know but it may come to
hand-to-hand fight. Get out the knives
you have in the bed of the wagon" {"
Through the backward march which fol.
lowed it was ever the women who rose
superior to suffering and to danger. The
men lost courage, hope and spirit, but
the women never. A few moments after
the demand for the knives O Methodist
preacher, who had seized my fathers
rifle, aimed at the chief with the dinner
bell depending from his belt, and saw
him fall. In five minutes not an Indian
was to be seen, the living dragging with
them the dead as they went. In the mean
time, under cover of the fight, our great
herd OF cattle had been made to swim
the river, and were safely corraled in the
iojave villages. s.-Kate Heath, in Jops1-

While r. D. Hooker, of Richland, was
engaged in chopping pumpkins for his
stock, and was on one knee, paying no
attention to his cattle, without warming
a bull came at him, striking him on the
right side and shoul er and prostrating
him on the ground. Though severely
bruised and hurt, Mr.. Hooker got on his
feet before the animal had time to make
a second attack, and, as it rushed at him,
struck it with an AK just under the horn
and above the eye. The blow, however,
seemed to have little effect on the angry
beast, stopping it for a moment. 1t
again pitched at Hooker, one horn gor-
ing him in the arm and the other infict-
ing a wound on the face. BY this time
the case looked desperate, but as the ami
NAL came at him the fourth or fifth time
Hooker managed to plant blow on it's
forehead that felled it to the ground,
and before it had recovered sufficiently
to renew the attack, he had got out of its
reach.

Things Hard to Understand

Why an endless procession of drinkers
rom public dipper will, without ex-
Veption, drink close to the handle.
! Why half the human race was not
porn without hearing and the other half
Without speech. Then the takers might
ak on in uninterrupted flow, and the
hearers exercise their especial gift with
but their present pruriency to speak.
Why people will go into society to get
bored, when they can get bored just as
we'll at home.
Why the young lady who will eagerly
chew boarding house mince pie will
carefully eschew boarding house mince-
meat.
Why n mans stomach will be so ever
,lastingly squarish at home, and at the
eating house display faith like a grain
of mustard seed.
Why woman will make excuses for
her bread when she knows it is the best
she ever made, and knows her "com-
pany' knows it.
Why "young gentleman" swears so
much louder and more copiously when
stranger ladies are within ear-shot; or in
other words,
Why the desire to make q fool of
one's self springs eternal In the human
breast.
Why we are so much angrier against
him who shows us our error than him
who leads us therein.
Why everybody is so prompt to an
swer, Chow do you do?" when you ask
that inevitable question. And,
Whyyou seem to be perfectly salts
fed with the information contained in
this echo.
Why ones piety strengthens as his
health weakens.
Why people will get married when
courtship is so sweet.
Why a man who claims to have found
marrying a delusion will again embrace
that delusion upon the first convenient
opportunity.
Why cold weather comes during the
season when it is least agreeable.
Why it is so much easier to be polite
to peoI' whom we shall probably never

ion we have reason to cultivate.
