A Wrathy Brother.

Jack Finehart had one love affair,
and only one. It was his sole romance
in life and he was very chary of talk
ing about it. But learned the facts
and they form startling commentary
on border life and the character of the
man.
He and his brother both fell in love
with the same girl, the niece of an
officer in the regular army, then sta
toned at camp Douglas, Utah. Jack
could hate as well as love, and he could
make and keep promise. He and
his brother came to an agreement by
which both men pledged themselves
never again to see or speak to the young
lady, the penalty for violation of the
contract being that the offender should
die at the hands of the other. The
brothers shook hands over the bargain
and each went his way.
Six years after Jack sought out his
brother, travelling over 1000 miles to
do so. He told him quietly that he
had broken his oath and wanted the
compact kept. The brother remon-
strated, but Jack was firm as adamant.
He had forfeited pledge, and he was
ready to die. The end of it all was
that the two brothers met on the bank
Of the Platte River one lovely summer
evening. Jack drew heavy derringer,

An Elephants H0t-Bed.

Capt. J. MULTI, the sea-lion catcher,
arrived in New York recently from
San Francisco. The captain did not
bring his usual assortment of sea-lions
this time. He had an elephant on his
hands. Unlike other people in the
same situation, the Captain knows
just what to do with it. The elephant,
a medium-size quadruped of the Ash
attic variety, was purchased in Japan
by Adam Forepaugh, the Snowman,
and was to be delivered in good con-
dition at the show quarters in Phila-
delphia. There was no trouble ON the
voyage over the placid Pacific to San
Francisco, but when the time for the
overland journey from San Francisco
came, arctic weather prevailed this
side of the Rocky Mountains. The
temperature was SO low as to congeSt
the lungs Of the elephant if unpro-
tected. The Centeral Pacific railroad
Company refused to let Capt. MULTI
put stoves in the elephants car, be-
cause of the danger to the Company's
property, and the Captain set his wits
to work to devise means of getting heat
without fire. He soon hit upon a
practical plan. The elephant was led
into a box-car, and stable compost
was thrown in by the CARLOAD. 1t
was piled high around the sides of the
car and loosely heaped around the
elephant, until only the head and back
of the big beast were visible. All
the chinks in the car were stopped,
and the journey was begun. AS the
temperature lowered, few pals of
and warm vapor from the ferment-
ing heap filed the car. In this way
the monster from the tropics invaded
the home of the blizzard and travelled
in his pathway from Cheyenne to
Philadelphia, where he was safely
delivered to his owners.

Power of the Eve.

A story is told of Van Amburg, the
great lion tanner, now dead On one
occasion, while in baroom, he was
asked how he got his wonderful power
over animals. He said: ''It is by
showing them that I'm not the least
afraid of them. I'll give you an ex-
ample of the power of my eye,"
pointing to a ioutish fellow who was
sitting near by he said: "You see
that fellow? He's regular clown.
I'll make him come across the room
to me and won't say word to him. -
Sitting down he fixed his keen, steady
eye on the man. Presently the fellow
Strengthened himself gradully, got up,
and came slowly across to the lion
tanner. When he got close enough he
drew back and struck Van Amburg
tremendous blow under the chin,
knocking him clear over the chair,
with the remark: sYou'll stare at
me like that again, won't you 2"

The latter drew off few PAGES, leveled
the weapon, and looked once more at
Jack. 81 can't do it, he said.
Finehart stood there, solitary, tall,
his arms folded, and an expression of
quiet melancholy on his handsome face.

The brother leveled the pistol, took
deliberate aim, and pulled the trigger.
The cartridge did not explode. Jack
took one long, quiet look at it, and
seeing his brother about to fire again,
once more gazed at the river. Sud-
denly the brother raised his arm, and
the deadly weapon whizzed through
the air and found last resting place
beneath the turbulent waters of the
rushing stream.

moonlight, and Jeanne kept bravely
on.
One thing only troubled her. The
air seemed to grow keener and more
keen with the frost, and warmly as
she had wrapped up the baby, she was
terribly afraid that it might take cold.
Presently she came to a path that
was called a &C short cut" which she
had often heard Donald say took away
half the distance, and though she had
never travelled it she unhesitatingly
struck into it, never doubling but that
she could follow it easily to the end.
And so perhaps she might have done,
if her mind had not been distracted
with anxiety and gloomy fears, AS it
was she suddenly awoke to the fact
that she had strayed from the path,
and was hopelessly lost in the woods.
In vain she tried to right herself-by
consulting the bright consultations,
and fruiteless efforts TO guide herself
by them-but she was too ignorant of
the face of the heavens, and too hope
lessly astray to right herself in any
way.
And after repeated efforts she felt
assured that she was travelling in a
circle, for an old deserted log cabin,
which she had noticed when she first
discovered that she had lost her way,
lay but little way ahead of her, and
she knew that she had come back to it
again and again during her efforts to
find the path.
"God help me, lam 1ost!" she muir

she was. 81 must spend the night in

morrow by the daylight. Oh, Donald,
Donald, and even this shelter may be
death to us, my wee bairnie, for wild
Indians may be in it,
She stood still, terrified anew at
the thought, and while her heart
beat loudly with this new fear she
heard a long howl, savage, menacing,
blood-curdling, borne on the clear air.
"My God-wolves - shrieked the
terrified woman; and before this
actual horror all other thoughts fed.

Never too Ola to Learn.

Many people. after they have arrived
at manhood or womanhood, hesitate to
apply themselves to study, thinking that
youth is the only period when it can be
prosecuted successfully. Let them take
courage after reading the following,
from good authority:
It is great mistake to suppose that
little can be accomplished if man has
reached the age of thirty or forty years.
Nine-tenths of our clever mon have actu-
ally exhibited more vigor of intellect at
fifty years of age than at forty. Frank
lin was forty when he began, in real
earnest, the study of natural philosophy
The principal of one of the most flourish
ing colleges in America was farm serv-
ant until past the age when most stu
dents have completed their collegiat
education. Sir Henry Spelman did not
begin the study of science until he was
between fifty and sixty years of age.
Greek was the first foreign language which
Cato, the celebrated Roman censor, ac-
quired, and he did SO in his old age.
Alferi, whose writing has caused a revo-
luton in the dramatic literature of Italy,
was left without father in his infancy,
and wasted his early years. John Ogilby,
the author Of poetical TRANSACTIONS from
Homer and Virgil, began the study of
Latin when about forty years of age, and
Greek in his forty-fourth. Boccacio,
one of the most illustrious writer's that
ever appeared in Italy, suffered nearly
half his life to pass without improve
ment. Handel was forty eight before he
published any of his great works. DR..
Thomas Arnold, of Rugby, learned Ger
man at forty, in order that he might read
Niebuhr in the original"

What q Boy Dl0.

A duke walking in his garden one day,
saw a Latin copy of great work on
mathematics lying on the grass, and
thinking it had been brought from his
library, called some one to carry it back.
"It belongs to me, p" said the gardeners
son, stepping up.
yours" cried the duke, "Do you un-
derstand geometry and Latin?"
II know a little of them," answered
the lad, modestly.
The duke, having o taste for the sci
ences, began to talk with the young stu
dent, and was astonished at the clearness
and intelligence of his answers.
"But how came you to know so much?
asked the duke.
Zone of the servants taught me to
read" answered the lad; lone does not
need to know anything more than the
twcnty-four letters in order to learn
everything else one wishes" But the
gentleman wanted to know more about it.
"After learned to read. said the boy,
''the masons came to work on your
house, noticed the architect used a rule
and compass, and made q great many
calculations. What was the meaning and
use of that asked; and they told me Of
a science called arithmetic. bought an
arithmetic and studied it through. They
then told me there was another science
called geometry. I bought the book
and learned geometry. Then I found
there were better books about the
sciences in Latin. bought dictionary
and learned Latin. heard there were
still better ones in French. I got
dictionary and learned French. It seems
to me we may learn every thing when we
know the twenty-four letters of the
alphabet"
They are, in fact, the ladder to every
science. But how many boys are con-
tented to waste their time at the first two
or three rounds, with not pluck or per-
severance enough to climb higher! Up,
up, up, if you want to know more, and
see clearer, and take high post of use
fulness in the world.
And if you are poor boy and need
little friendly encouragement to help
you on, be sure, if you have a will to
climb, you will find the way, just as the
gardeners son found it afterwards in the
Duke of Argyle, under whose patronage
he pursued his studies and become dis
tinguished mathematician.
