NV First AntelOpe.

We scurried over the desert plains
south of Laramie, Wyoming, skirted
Sheep Mountain, entered North Park,
and after fifty-fve mile drive, camped
at Pinkham's Ranch, All day long we
had kept up fusillade at antelope in
the distance but without effect. At
daybreak l swung my Sharps carbine
over my shoulder, mounted my horse,
and started for a group of antelope a
mile or more away. When within a
thousand yards L dismounted, and for
three hundred yards crawled cautiously
through the long grass. They. APP
peared to lie a buck and two does.
Reclining at full length, and, taking
long and deliberate aim at the larger
of the three, l was highly elated to
see the supposed buck spring in the
air and fall to the ground. Returning,
and remounting my horse, L rode
rapidly toward the wounded animal,
elated at the prize L should be able to
show my comrades at Pinkham's when
they rose for breakfast. Judge of my
chagrin and remorse when, upon
drawing near to the dying animal, 1
discovered that 1 had shot doe. In
stead of scampering rapidly away, as
they naturally would have done, the
fawns remained close to their mother
in her death struggles. With their
beautiful gazelle eyes they cast such
piteous reproving looks at me, as one
could never forget; it was scene to
move a heart of stone. For days after
ward on driving from point to point in
North Park, we encountered large
droves of these antelopes. Frequently
they remained, just like so many calves
in the barn-yard, until we had ridden
fairly on to them. But l could never
persuade myself to kill another of these
beautiful animals except as needed for
food. Sportsmen who delight in shoot
ing the graceful creatures one after an
other, are nothing less than inhuman
butchers. -DaUid W. Judd, IN Ameri-

People Who Live on the Railroads.

There is distinct railroad populas
ton that is constantly growing. 1t l.
composed OF commercial travellers, lee
turers, show agents, actors, and act
tresses. They eat more meals in hotel
cars and railroad meal stations than
they do ut home or in hotels. They
spend more nights in sleeping car hunks
than in beds. To person who travels
only occasionally it is interesting to
note how thoroughly equipped these
professional journeyers are. Upon en-
tering sleeping-car early in the eve
ming, for instance, they remove their
shoes and put on slippers, hang their
hat up and don silk travelling caps,
take off their coats and put on short
sack coats or smoking jackets.
In the morning, when the occasional
traveller, obliged to wear the only
clothing he has brought, goes to the
toilet compartment in his coat and vest,
and thus struggles in an effort to
cleanse his skin without soaping his
sleeves or his coat collar, these pro-
fessionals again excite his envy. They
come along all smiles, having slept
we'll, and feeling perfectly at home.
They hang up their smoking jackets
and display snowy white robes, orna-
mented with colored binding and braid,
and capable of being thrown open at
the neck and rolled up above the
elbows. From pocket in the suspend
ed jacket one produces an ivory-backed
brush and costly comb, toothbrush,
and perhaps nickle-plated soap box.
Another opens out II prettily embroid-
cred receptacle, composed of many
folds, each one a pocket and each one
labeled. In these lockets are a comb
brush, toothbrush, shaving brush,
soap box, pair of razor cases, nail
brush, whisk broom, hand glass, and
cologne bottle.
Their familiarity with their sur
roundings is as noticeable q part OF
their equipment. A glance out of the
car window is almost certain to reveal
to them their whereabouts when they
arise, or when they are walked up, or are
about to go to bed. They carry their
timetables in their heads, and give good
advice as to which station has the best
caterer. They are sociable and dem
ocratic.-Philadelphia Record.

The Murderer's Secret

A thousand eyes turn at once to ex-
plore every man, everything, every cir
cumstance connected with the time and
place; a thousand ears catch every
whisper; O thousand excited minds
dwell on the scene, shedding all their
light and ready to kindle the slightest
circumstance into blaze of discovery.
Meanwhile the guilty soul cannot keep
its own secret. 1t is false to itself, or
rather it feels an irresistible impulse
of conscience to be true to itself; it
labors under its guilty possession, and
knows not what to do with it. The
human heart was not made for the resi-
dence OF such an inhabitant. 1t finds
itself preyed on by torment which it
dares not acknowledge to God or man.
A vulture is deSou1ng it, and it can
ask no sympathy or assistance from
either heaven or earth. The secret
which the murderer possesses Soon
comes to possess him; and, like the
evil spirits of which we read, it over
comes HIM, and leads him whittier it
will. He feels it beating at his heart,
rising in his throat, demanding disclos-
ure; he thinks the whole word sees it
in his face, reads it in his eyes, and al
most hears its workings in the very
silence of his thoughts. 1t has become
his master, it betrays his discretion, it
breaks down his courage, it conquers
his prudence. When suspicion from
without began to embarrass him, and
the net of circumstances to entangle
him, the fatal secret struggles with still
greater violence to burst forth. II
must be confessed, it will be confessed /;
there is no refuge from confession but
suicide, and suicide is confession

Caleb Cushing.

Caleb Cushing's personal habits were
peculiar. Although a most charming
companion, an agreeable conversation
alist, and fond of the table, where he
was always delightful, he was a solitary
man. His wife was daughter of
Judge Wilde, bright and remarkable
woman, who entered into her husband's
interests in way somewhat unusual.
Old politicians remember the savage
assaults made on him in Massachusetts,
on the charge that an affidavit in his
favor was, in fact, made to his wife, al
though hef name was studiouslv con-
cealed under the designation of "a per-
son." She died young, and he never
married again, and always seemed to
lead wandering life; for, although he
had home in Newburyport, no one
was sure of finding him there or of be-
ing able to ascertain where he was.
When he entered railway car he
would, if possible, select vacant seat
next to some person he did not know
an Irishman seemed preterable-appar-
emily in order to avoid conversation.
Not a singular trait, by the by, in emf
uenb men. 1Hty beo tHOuBH VI buell
compeers by necessity, and often prefer
inferior persons as companions. Lord
Eldon's favorite guest at dinner was q
stuffy old master in chancery, and able
men nearer home notoriously enjoy
careless talk with persons where they
can lay the harness off and feel entirely
unrestrained. Mr.. .Choate, in his FIRE.
