insolence. Only the day before a dozen of the braves had come into the store when she was alone in it, and had demanded whisky-a commodity they were not allowed to touch, and no one was permitted to sell. She told them she had none, and they sat, as Indians will, for long time, as if tor show her they would not go away until they got it. Curiously enough, no one came to the store from the settlement. By and by the Indians proposed to search for the whisky. She laughed at them, and told them they could search. They did so, peeping and poking every where that they could think of. When they offered to go upstairs to her living apartments she stood in the doorway and told them they must not venture there, She flattened her back against the door and defied them. She was less than the ordinary height, and did not weigh over 100 pounds, but she quailed them with the eye of brave and determined woman, and when presently some white men came to make some pur- chases, the Indians took themselves off. Only 8 few nights before that this same woman had seen wolf in her back yard and had gone out and "shooed" it away with her apron and her scolding, just as one of our girls might do with cat. I never saw a man that l thought more plucky than she. Perhaps, though, what no Indian or wolf could do might be done by mouse. But it is beyond all reason to expect the bravest not to fear mouse.
 In our southern states one gets still another view of woman. I went through the Virginia mountains and learned that south of Mason and Dix on's line every white woman is a queen, idolized by brothers, husband, sons and fathers; respected as if sainted by her neighbors. When a poor old woman entered a railroad depot that was crowded by men at a time when it was not expected that any woman would be travelling, every man in that assemblage rose to his feet in order that she might select what seat she wished, and those men who were smoking went out and stood in the rain rather than choose to of fend her. One of the men who did this was Fitz Hugh Lee, now gov ernor of the state. That was only one illustration of a chivalric deference toward women, everywhere observa- ble and everywhere reflecting honor on the men who maintained it.

Leap Year Law.
Harrisburg Telegraph.

One minute, girls. You may have an idea that leap-year business is a guy, and that you have no right to "pop" the question to a young man. But you have. Just read this old law, /, enacted by the Scottish parliament in the year 1288, and then act accordingly.
 "It is statut and ordaint that during the reign of Her Maist Blissit Meg estie, ilk fourth year, known as leap year, ilk maiden ladye of baith high and low estait shall hae liberty to be- speak ye man she likes, albeit, gif he refuses to talk hir to be his wife, he shell be mulcted in ye summe of ane dundis or less, as his estait mott be, except and avis gif he can mak it ap- pear that he is betrothit to ane ither woman, that he then shall be free"
 What better law can you want than that which comes from the fountain head? It is law from away back.

AFTER THE DAY--NIGHT.

Love knocked early at my door In the morn he came to find me Saying, "Let me cross thy floor, And thy chains shall ever bind me" But turned away my heart. Who was Love that he should find me? Saying, "Well, thou playst thy part, But perchance thy chain would bind me-" Eoontde passed. He sought my door, of thou wilt thou still mayst bind me. And will yet cross thy floor; Here again you never find me-" But madly chose my part What cared to stay and find him? Love should never win my heart; Wherefore should pause to bind him: Night is here, and at my door Vainiy now seek to find him; Could he only cross my floor, l would give all else to bind him. But again without my door I shall never waiting find him; He will never cross my floor No one thrice has power to bind him.

 Presently he broke in with, "Boys, there ain't no use talkin'. When I first come to Lickskillet I had a strong leanin' toward universal salvation.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
POMONA, October 31.-Interest among
Democrats and Republicans OF Pomona
in regard to the authorship of the Muir
Gibson letter to Minister West has been
greatly increased during the past twenty
four hours by the offer OF the National
Democratic Committee, through Post
master Stein and Judge ]. A. Clarke, OF
this place, to pay 1000 for positive in
formation as TO who Charles F. Murchi-
son is, and his idea in writing to Minis
ter West. Local Republicans strictly
maintain that the Murchison letter was
written in Pomona and mailed here by a
Pomona man who assumed the name OF
a relative in Scotland. Local Democrats
maintain that the letter was written in
the East and sent here for mailing. w.
H. Barnum telegraphed from New York
to-day that the National Democratic
Committee has every reason to believe
now that Stephen B. Elkins is the author
of the Murchison letter and that it was
written in Washington and sent to Po-
mona to be mailed here by Elkins'
cousin, John E. David. Postmaster Stein
has an indistinct recollection that David
called for letter or letters addressed to
Murchison about month or five weeks
ago. David is wealthy farmer living
near Pomona, and has been out OF town
with his family for two weeks. His
friends deny in strong terms that he has
anything to do with the Murchison let
ter. They laugh at the idea that Elkins
wrote or conceived the Murchison letter.
