THE DOG KNEW HIS DEER.

Forest and Stream.
By far the most interesting part OF
this hunt 20 me is yet to come. The
voices Of the two dogs as they passed
along the mountain had been recognlz-
ed bv their owners, and both claimed
the deer. such things have been known
to cause a bitter feud. One was sure it
was his dog and the other was just as
sure it was his; but the question Of most
Importance to be settled was, which of
the dogs started the deer? The deer
was brought on shore and laid on the
green sward. where even the ladies, gen
tie creatures, admired it. Soon the boat
arrived with the two dogs, and one of
the old hunters cried out, ''Send those
two hounds up here, and let us see
whose deer this is" Never having
heard so strange a story, | half in doubt,
said: "What nonsense is that you are
talking?" mo nonsense, Doctor, wait
and see"
Being deeply interested approached
closely, that might better observe the
animals. One of them walked up to
the deer, smelt him all over and seemed
quite in doubt. Then the other dog
came up with an angry growl, smelt the
deer and deliberately laid himself down
by the animal, while the first dog quiet
" placed his tail between his legs and
walked away. 1 could not help express
ing nv amazement, and still doubling
the fact 1 said to my old guide: THAT
dog that is lying by the deer has been
the master of the other and has cowed
him" son the contrary" said my in
former, "the dog that gave up the deeI
is better fighter, and whips that dog ev-
cry time"
We learned during the day that the
deer had been started ten miles down
the river by the dog that claimed it, and
the sound of his voice drew the Other
one. about four miles below the lake
confirming the test and proving the
wonderful instinct of the hound.

other are like the several flowers in a

dew of heaven, which, being shaken by
the wind, they let fall the dew at each

nourished, and become nOurishers of
one another.

CHRISTIAN graces are like perfumes;
the more they are pressed, the sweeter

are shaken, the deeper root they take,
and the more fruit they bear.

KNIGHTS OF IABOE.

A Momentous Convention of the Order in
Session at Indianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 13-About the
hotel corridors this morning the delegates
to the Twelfth General Assembly of the
Knights of Labor were busilys engaged
discussing matters of interest and inn
portance to the order.
General Master Workman Powderly ar
rived early this morning and was at once
taken to breakfast, after which he was
closeted with Acting Secretary Haas and
other members Of the executive board
until the time Of meeting,
Conspicuous in the lobby of the Grand
Hotel was Thomas B. Barry of Michigan,
leader of the fight against Powderly. He
talked freely, accusing the present MEM
bers Of the board of extravaganza, mis-
management, the employment OF, persons
not members Aof the order, and of other
things heretofore published very gener-
ally and more fully. He showed letter
sent him at his home in East Saginaw,
Mich, giving hotel rates and other in
formation regarding the general assembly.
On the corner of the envelope, aud in tho
same writing as the address, was the note,
Expelled by G. E. B." He was very in
dignant at this End said he could make the
sender suffer in the courts if he SO wished.
The talk about John J. Jarrett as pos
sible successor to Powderly caused the
delegates great deal of amusement, in
view of the fact that nc one but delegates
are eligible to election and Mr.. Jarrett
does not happen to be a delegate-in fact
some doubt whether he is a true member
Of the organization. W. T. Lewis, Of
Pittsburgh, is about the only person
spoken Of as an opponent of Powderly
for the chief place and his opposition may
not materiaiize to any great extent

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 13.-Some ex-
element has arisen in railroad circles
over the bill now drawn up and ready for

Legislature to regulate the operation and

The bill regulates the price of berths
at 81 per night and So per twenty
four hours. The upper berth, when
vacant, must be closed to aid
ventilation, and the maximum wages
OF the porter is fixed at $3.50 per day in
stead of So per week, the former rate,
while it makes it a misdemeanor for the
porter to accept any ''tips" or remunera-
ton for services rendered from the pas
sengers.s The measure also deals with the

NOTHING SERIOUS FEARED.
WAsHINGToN, Nov. I.-The Department.
Of State does not anticipate any serious
results from the complications; between
this country and Peru growing out OF the
seizure of the building in-which is situated
the United States consular agency at Mo-
lendo Peru. The facts as reported to he
department by United States Minister
Buck are as follows: Tho building which
was seized was the property of The Ara
quipa Railroad Company. the agent for he
company being also the United States CON-
sular agent and a room in the structure
was occupied as the consulate. The Pc
ruvian Government took possession of o
building in the absence of the consular
agent, held it for a few days and final "
turned it over to the agent upon instruc-
tions from Lima, alleging that it had been
occupied solely for protection. The C n
sular record were not disturbed. As he
action appeared to be a technical discous L
esq toward the United States. an apology
was requested, but was refused by T. e
: Peruvian Government on the ground that
it had done nothing to warrant an apology.
The Arequipa railroad property was seiz d
by the Government of Peru some time aga
but it is held that by subsequent az
rangement with the bondholders the prop
ertv has since been exempted. The State
Department is awaiting further details OF
the affair before proceeding further.

HYMN OF THE NIGHT.
by NAOMI McncNALD PHELPS.

The wreath Of peace bound in nigbts dusky tresses
Over my spirit falls,
From TIE far hills whose crests the moon caresses,
Tn, pIaintiyc night bird calls.
Alone--oh, gentle spirit let thy balm Of healing
Dispense each gloomy thought,
And To the wounds the heart is aye concealins,
Sweet n,inistrations brought
From thy dark wings that fan the seepless pillows
OF those that weep.
Sore storm beleagued on lifes restless biilcw,
Drop blessed sleep
Upon their eyclids let no thought Of morrow
With brow OF care,
It's ceaseess struggle with unendinK sorrow
Break visions fair
Oh, star-crowned spirit, let thy dusky garments
Wait doors sweet
Till a. a vesture all LIES moulded cerements
Drop ut thy feet.
The prisoner waiting but the morn that bringsth
| The day Of scorn.
Yet wrapped in thine embrace full sweet he sngetf
Az in his boyhood morn.
| No dreams OF scaffold Where thy gentle myers
Have set their seal Of peace
In thine embrace for restless worn hearts fingers
A sweet release
The weary mother with her babe still sleePesn
Till eastern skies are red,
Nc more the tired frame its vigils keepsth
To earn her daily bread
There comes night that falls on Some sornarrow
With promise rife,
When We shall waken not to earthly sorrow
But everlasting life
