4 Grave Woman.

In one of the Mississippi towns, not
very far from Memphis, on the line Of
the Mississippi and Tennessee railroad
little lady, aged sixteen Nears, shot
and severely wounded an impudent
white tramp who attempted to enter
the house after being ordered not to do
so. The lady, who is small, but game,
and a crack shot with pistol, was the
only white person in the house when
the burly tramp approached. 1--WE
have nothing for you; you needn't
come in !" she said to the tramp. "But
! will come in," he answered. "You
had better not, or you will get what
you don't want, quietly responded the
lady, as she laid down her knitting,
picked IL siX-shoOter from her work
basket and approached the door. "You
go back in your room, or I'll pitch you
out of the window" exclaimed the
rui1ianiy tramp, as he walked inside
the door. Bang! went the pistol, and
the tramp staggered back ON the porch,
shot through the arm and breast. She
raised the pistol again, but the tramp
fed. A neighbOr rushed around the
house and asked the little lady, who
was sitting down and engaged in knit
ting, with her pistol in her busket,
"What's the nIatter?" She exclaimed,
Hes gone" He then asked, "Did
you shoOt him?" "Yes," sue replied,
"and if he kept on coming, would be
shooting until now" The tramp was
bleeding profusely, and 1t was with
difficulty that the How of blood could
be stopped He left the town a sadder
and wiser man, having been taught a
lesson in manners that he will not soon
forget. The game little woman is
worth her weight in geld dollars.

Der Type Company, Of Buffalo, has

GdEcttc Oh the 2Gth two men named
Wilhelm and keefer were hunting in
the mountain near Salisbury, Somer-
set County. Both were calling tur.
Keys and neither knew that the other
was in the woods. Wilhelm gave the
usual note on his caller" and Keefer
thinking it WAS turkey, replied.
Nhilhelm, deceived by the reply,
answered it, and so the men uncon-
sciously drew together. AS Wilhelm
advanced he suddenly caught sight of
moving Object partially concealed
by II tree. He took deliberate aim
with his rifle aud fired, but what was
his horror to see keefer stagger from
behind the tree and fall to the ground
dead. The unfortunate man was shot
directly through the heart. Let this
serve as warning to those men who
are overly anxious for IL shot
There are some men who blaze away
upon the slightest suspicion, without
any Investigation as to what the OBJ
jcct ut which they direct their fire
may he, and when men of this kind
are in the woods there is no safety for
anybody else within half dozen
miles.
