Close Shave.

Some eight Ornine years ago four of
us We're camping for fortnight, and
on the day when the incident relate
occurred, we had all gone out early,
and had hunted uatil past noon with
out success. On our trip homeward
we agreed to separate, two and two as
We have done today, spread out widely,
and surrounded an immense marsh,
whose borders were wont to be a favor
tie resort for the game we were in
search of, and we aecordiagIy departed
on our respective routes. Ihad nearly
reached the lower end of the marsh,
which by the way was entirely open,
when my companion, who was slightly
in advance, beckoned to me and on my
coming up, told me that he had seen a
large deer slowly feeding along a strip
of alders which reached to q tongue of
high ground running out into the
marsh, and that ii 1 would wait for q
few minutes, he would go around to
the further end, and thus one of US
would be sure to get shot. A mo-
ment after my companion had left me,
our separate friends, one of whom was
accompanied by his dog, crossed a mar
row lagoon in the marsh about q mile
distant, giving no indication of having
seen me; soon after approached the
place where the deer, had been seen by
my friend, and as nothing had occur
red to disturb it. I counted confidently
on getting a good shot. A Low, brushy
point covered me until 1 was within
n -G ! Z.
covered with scrub oaks OF a very
dense growth, with here. and there
open spots, where an animal in motion
would have to show itself In ascending
the ridge. I had approached very
slowly and cautiously and waited for
some minutes for sound or motion, but
In vain, and had about concluded that
the deer had either escaped or land
down, when slight rustling on the
top of the hill attracted nay attention,
and the next moment 1 saw family
through the foliage the unnaistakabIe
whisk of q deer's tail; again, a little
further on, it was repeated, the same
quiveTing shake of the flag, so familiar
to every deer stalker, and catching
quick sight where L supposed the body
was, 1 fired. My shot was answered
by ayel Of agony that told too truly
its own story, and upon hurrying to
the spot found the. dog Of my friend
lying dead at the feet of his master.
His hand at the moment the fatal shot
was fired had rested upon the animals
head, whose jOyfnl response to the ca
Fess of his master had been the cause
of his death. Ii was the wag of the
dogs tail, and. not the deer's, that I
saw. L was thunderstorm, not at the

of the consequences had my aim been

The Street Car Strike.

CHICAGO, Oct S.-There were no impor-
tant developments in the north side street
car strike today. 1t was after , o'clock
this morning when the conference of the
employees OF the west side road, which is
controlled by the same syndicate, came to
an end. The advisabiltty of striking with
out further notice. in order to give moral
support to the north side men, was debated
at length, but il was finally decided to
refrain from this step Ut til an attempt was
made to operate the north side road with
nOn-uniOn or imported labor. A general
sentiment was expressed that so soon as
any effort was made in this direction q
strike should be declared on the west
side, and before the conference was brought
to q close an executive committee with
power to act was appointed Considerable
satisfaction was expressed at the headquar-
ters OF the strikers when the result OF the
meeting was known today, but no formal
action was deemed necessary.
There was no lack OF transportation
facilities on the north side during the day.
Fully 90 hacks, RansOms, OmnibussCs, eX-
press wagons, grocery carts and vehicles
OF every description moved in one COntinu-
GUS stream from the county building to the
city limits and back again. There were
more OF them. IN fact than there We're
loads of passengers to carry. This cOndi-
ton of affairs was due to the action of the
executive committee of the strikers in
issuing a general appeal to every one haV-
ing vehicles not otherwise employed to put
them into service on the north side.
