Generals Pierce Young and Custer
were messmates and CLASSMATES aud de-
voted friends at West Point. In the
war they were heterogeneous OF cav
airy on opposing sides. One day Gen.
Young was invited to breakfast ut the
Hunter mansion in Virginia. The beau
tiful young ladies had prepared a smok-
ing breakfast, TO which the General was
addressing himself With ardor, when =
shell burst through the house. Glancing
through a window, he saw Custer
charging toward the house a, the head
of his staff. Out the window Young
went, calling to the young ladies',
"Tell Custer ! leave this breakfast for
him" Custer enjoyed it heartily, and
looked forward with pleasure 10 the
dinner in the distance. In the mean
time Young, smarting over The loss Of
his breakfast and his hasty retreat,
drove the Federal line back, and by
dinner time was IN sight Of the Hunter
mansion again. Custer, who was just
sitting down to dinner, laughed and
said. That's Pierce Young coming
back. knew lie wouldn't leave me
here in peace. Here's nay picture; give
il to him, and tell him hi, old classmats
leaves his love with this excellent din
ner.' And out Of the window ne went
and away like fash, while the Georgia
general walked in and sat down Ia
dinner.

seizing the notes, and then turning
with lofty air, she was about TO march
from the courtroom.
"Stop, madam! am not satisfied >
The officers tone was perenptory and
startling.
"What do you want?" demanded the
aristocratic lady, facing him with an
insolent look.

For the first time, the proud woman
quailed. Her husband turned pale

"Give me your name Ard direction, y

The courtroom rang with cries OF

"The gentleman has right to the

"Order! order." cried the officer OF
the law as the audience again shouted
and clapped their applause. The peo,
ple could not conceal their sympathy
with the innocent man so relentlessly
pushed to the wall by his hard accusers
and now so suddenly aud strangely
placed in a position to punish them.
The painful scene could have but one
ending. Overwhelmed with chagrin
and rage, which changed to real terror
when she saw two sheriffs approaching
her, the rich lady begged her creditor
to take back his money and leave heI

weeping angry tears.

The mortified husband, knowing that
there was ne escape but this from the
unhappy predicament he and his wife
had brought themselves into by their
over-reaching and arrogance, called fol-
pen and paper, and wrote an order on
his banker for the required sum.
The two retired from the court amid
the misses of the crowd; and while the
young mans conduct could not be
morally justified, because it was return
ing evil for evil, yet many spectator
said that day that the old Russian prov
erb had been fulfilled-"rhe knife you

Under the Snow.


The snow had begun in the cleaning.
And busily all the night
Had been heaping field and highway
With a silence deep and white.
Every pine and fir and hemlock
Wore ermine too dear for an earl
And the poorest twig on the elm tree
Was ridged inch deep with pearl.
From sheds new-roofed with Carrara
Came chanticleer's muffied crow
The stiff rails were softened 10 swan s-down
And still fiuttered down the snow.
i stood and watched by the window
The noiseless work OF the sky,
And the sudden fiurries Of snow-birds'
Like brown leaves whirling by.
1 thought OF mound in sweet auburn
Where little headstone stood;
How the flakes were folding 1t gently
As did robins the babes in the wood.
Up spoke our own little Mabel,
Saying, Father, who makes 1t snow?
And told OF the good All-father,
Who cares FOR us here oelow.
Again looked at the snowfall,
And thought Of the leaden sky
That arched DER our first great sorrow,
When that mound was heaped so high.
l remembered the g.adual patience
That fell from that cloud like snow,
Flake by flake, healing and hiding
The scar OF our deep-plulged woe.
And again to the child whispered,
''The snow that husheth all,
Darling, the mercifu, Father
Alone can make II fall y
Then, with eyes that saw not, l kissed her;
And she. kissing back, could not know
That my kiss was given TO her sister
Folded close under deepening snow.

bull turns as il on pivot. Wolves to
the north-the esst-the south-the
west. The circle is complete. Watch
him.
When man must die in the presence
of his enemies let him die like war
-ior. The monarch knows what this
gathering means. lie sees the lulling
tongues, and he hears the gnashing of
teeth. There Is no help for him. He
must die like craven or prove his
courage. See the head go up! Hear
the roar of defiance! Is there anything
craven in that attitudeg
The wolves have been sitting a. quiet
-as so many blocks Of stone placed on
the grass. That roar OF defiance puts
life into them, AMI they move nearer.
Curious pantomime! A grand old
buffalo turning slowly round In his
tracks TO eye each separate wolf and
watch every motion. 4 score and a
half of gaunt, grim, waiting beasts
every eve fixed upon a common center
every fang sharpened for feast.
Swish-swirl-rush
The circle closes In at the signal, aud
for few seconds the eye is confused.
IL appears as il some one hidden In the
grass was tossing and waving strips Of
gray and white cloth. The roars of the
bull are almost drowned in the yelps
and grOwls and hOwls OF the assailants.
Good! There is game there! The
monarch has used his horns and hoofs
TO such good purpose that the circle has
opened away for him. Legs and TANKS
and shoulders have been bitten, aud
teeth have drawn blood where a bullet
would hardly penetrate, but he Is not
disarmed. Under his feet are two dead
wolves, two more limp around outside
the circle.
Um-m-m-m! Paw! Toss Come again
if you dare!
There is the rush, the swirl, the
strange spectacle of gray-white bundles
jumping over each other, and the
circle falls back again 20 breathe.
Ho, ho! There are long tufts OF hair
on the grass, more dead wolves, spots
of blooG. The bull shakes his head and
seems weak Oh his legs. \ spy-glass
would show YOU blood trickling down
from score of savage bites, while he
barely touches the grass with one hind
foot. There Is low below, aud some
thing in il smacks of fear. Bah! II
you must die why not prove!
"That's good That is a roar Of defiance
grandly louC and deep, aud the mon
arch gathers himself and makes rush.
He has turned assailant. with low
cred head and blazing eyes he rusLes at
one spot in the circle, and gray-white
body rises high in the air, to come down
without life.
There is such circling and swirling
now that you can see nothing but the
mass now and then breaking away for
a second, to reveal the bull fighting for
his life.
IL is overt He is down, and his blood
is smearing the grim jaws Of the wolves
as they tear at the hot flesh. All, well |!
but there was game and nerve and true
grit, and his bones deserve burial at the
hand of man.

Nothing else wi h '.fe IN it is nearer.
The Kings domains are rich in food

of peace and harmony.
He stands with his head elevated, ana
as he slowly turnsin Iris tracks he snlii'
the air for scent Of danger. Who u
our king? A buffalo bull-Nature's
monarch of Natures grand pasturage.
How came he here, alone and de-
priyed of companionship? Men become
cynics and world-haters and snake OH
all attempts at friendliness. So with
animals. This monarch is here to pout
and suIk and feel aggrieyed and piah
for revenge.
All. High above him. with every
foo; o. ground under your eyes, you
could see no danger. His keen scent
warned him of peril, and wolf breaks

The bull lowers his head, and MS

Compare their size and strength, and
YOU laugh at the idea of wolf briAg-

a hoof-one toss from the horns-and
the wolf would be crushed and dead.
Pooh! 'Tis All enemy not worth a

What! another .As the quail rises
from cover, so that second wolf sud-
denly shows himself above the grass.
You cannot say that the beasts even
suspect each others presence. They
are fifty feet apart, and both sit and
stare straight at the monarch Of the
plains. The bull gives his head toss
as he sights the second arrival. Wolves
hunt in pairs. Here is the pair. Moth

Yes, rub your eyes to see IL they are

Of contempt; the six Of them may bring
