A Thrilling q dventure-

A man driving a horse covered from head to foot with foam drove into the village of Milford. Pa., just after dark a few nights since. He was suffering from a nervous shock. His buffalo robe was badly torn. his whip broken, and the back part of his sleigh splintered and covered with scratches and deep indentions. The man gave his name as c. D. Keeney, of New York. He was travelling sewing machine agent. He had been attacked by catamOunt four miles from Milford, and had only escaped from it after desperate cont.st. He told this story.
 He was ol his way to Milford, over one of the lonely, narfoW, and crooked back roads of Ding man township, bordered by deep woods. It was nearly dark, and just as he was rounding one of short turns in th3 road, his horse suddenly shied and then started on furious run. At the same time an animal sprung from the side of the road and alighted with it's fore feet on the buffalo robe that lay across Keeney', lap. The animal glared savagely at Keeney. as it ciung to the robe with its claws and uttered fierce grOwIs. Keenev had never seen catamount hut he knew he had one to deal with. and very large and desperate one at that. He had no weapon, but fortuna tely his whip was heavily loaded at the butt.
 CIinging 10 the reins with his left hand, he drew the whip from it's socket, and dealt the catamOunt a blow with it on the head which caused it to loosen it's hold on the robe and drop into the snow. It Sinstantly renewed the attack with increased fury and sprang upon the back of the sleigh. Although the horse wss running mndly away along the narrow and crooked road, throw ing the sleigh from side tS side and threatening it constantly with destruction against rocks or stumpS, Keney was obliged to drop the reins and leave the result to chance, tor the cata. mount was fighting desperatel, :, and furiously to gain a fo0thold in the sleigh and close with its occupant.
 Keeney says he knew that ir case the sleigh collided with any heavy obstacle he would be no match for the catamOunt fighting on the slippery snow even if he were thrown out anO unharmed, and so he strained every nerve to conquer it while he was still at an advantage il the sleigh. A few more blow! and Keeney was rejOiced to set the tenacious brute first lOoseI one claw, hang for an instant with the other while it tried tt seize the back of the sleigh again with it's teeth, and thel fall with a loud yell into thu snow and lie there motiOnless
 Keeney dropped bacI in his seat to weak 10 make any endea vor to regain control of his horse which was still rushing wildly along the uncertain road, nov made more uncertain by thu gathering darkness. Afte running for three miles the hOfs was compelled 10 come to stol from exhaustion. keeney hat recovered sufficiently to drive Il the rest of lhe way.

The Cowboy as a Pianist.

 The party addressed was { guest stopping at all Austin hote abd-the scene of tn 5 incident wa! | in the office Of the said caravan sary. The guest regarded ths cowboy for d few moments atten- lively, and then, for the sake O novelty, accompanied him to the baI room. After imbibing, the two strolled back Into the hotel and passed the door of the .parlol vi hin which stood piano. The piano caught the cow)Oy's eye and there were no people in the room.
 "Pariner," said the cowboy "did you know I could jolt on, of them things?"
 "What things?" inquired the guest.
 "Pianners. I'm a hoss at jer- Kim melody outen' the finger board 0t them things. Jest step in an I'll give yer d taste."
 They entered the parlOr and the cowboy spread himself all over the front of the instrument. coiled his whiplash legs down under ihe piano stool, threw back his long, sinewy body, ran' his bony, dirty fingers over the deli cate whiie keys, dipped into an overture in minor key, as soft and plaintive as the sigh of a summer, breeze, changed sud- denly from d wild succession oi chords from "Pinafore," "Pat- ience," "Olivette," and "Only a pausy Blossom"
 AS the man played, his physi' 
 cal identity seemed to dissolve, and while thu outer shape ard lines of the cowboy remained. within he seemed lit up with spirituality, which gleaned softly out f:om his large, expressive eyes. He surely played with marvellous power and one by .one the guests of the hotel crcpt into the parlor, arranged themselves by the windows and walls, ol hung, listening attentively, neal tte doorway.

The big sOmbrert had fallen off, and the dark, mat ted hair of the player reached half way to the floor, as his bad, swayed back and forth to the undulating rhythm of the music
 "HOW do you like itY'
 The tone in which the cowboy uttered this interrogation wa entirely new, and d strange metamorphosis appeared to havt occurred in his personal appear ance. In his face there was { familiar look which was quick } observed by the hotel guest, ant as quickly was the changed ex pressiOn on the latter'S face nOti ced by the cowboy. The mal rose hastily from his chair by tn

 with him, threw open his buck skin vest, exhibited the stee badge of detective, and, at tn ! same moment, whipped olt , resOlver. and said:

Hon. Theodore Sedgwick. one Of the
Massachusetts Judges from 1908 to 1913,
was won't to relate the following anecdote
with great relish: One George White,
an expert thief, who had been an inmate
Of nearly every jail and prison in tho
Commonwealth, was at one time on trial
before Court At which Judge Sedgwick
presided. While the Attorney General
was making the argument for the prose-
cution, ono Of the jurors leaned forward
and covered his face with his hands.
Noticing this, White rose in the dock and
said, with the coolest impudence: "You
may As well stop, Mr.. Attorney-G General;
you have talked one of the jurymen to
sleep" The Attorney General was
struck speechless with astonishment at
this unlooked.for interruption, and As
soon As he recovered himself he turned on
the prisoner, exclaiming with passionate
vehemence: "You thief! You villain!
Your forehead should be branded with
the word thief which stamps your
character!" and proceeded to lash him
with torrent of invectives, not for
getting to taunt him with the fact that
nine indictments were then pending
against him in that very Court. White
stood calm and apparently unmoved
throughout the stinging reproof of the
irascible Attorney. General, and at the
conclusion he quietly remarked: "You
may now proceed. sir; you have walked
him up!"
