BALzAC.

Balzac, French author and nov
elist, was the subject of Mrs. Flo
renee Williams lecture, at Harmony
Hall, last evening. Balzac was
born in 1879 and died at the age of
so years. He was of good family,
but in poor circumstances the great
er part of his life.
Mrs. Williams spoke pathetically
of his misfortunes and extoled his
writings. Balzac's writings have
become very popular, especially
since they have been translated into
English. Between the ages of 20
and 80 years Balzac was in abject
poverty, and through venture in
the publishing business he became
greatly in debt. He was staunch
believer in the Roman Catholic faith
and thorough aristocrat. These
two characteristics must be known
to fully appreciate his books. The
lecturer gave an interesting synop-
sis of the principal characters in
Balzac's novels, speaking of them
as being admirably true to life. The
Country Doctor" is the title of one
of Balzac's most popular books. On
its first appearance it fell fiat, and
it is only of late that that it has
come into prominence. During his
last year or two he achieved fame
and fortune, and after six months
of welded happiness he was found
dead in his library.

or the country will be swamped with

statute that is binding, it will be the

been legislating there for or 4
years, and it is generally known
that Chinaman will find loop
hole in the law and take advantage
of it, so we must leave no loop hole,
but make the law as restrictive as it
is possible to make it for our own
protection. He referred to the
Straits Settlements, where the China
men have monopolised all classes of
labor, both skilled and unskilled,
and he predicted the same condition
for this country if no restriction
laws are enacted.
Minister Ashford said this was
not a restrictive measure, but sim
ply one limiting the time in which
permits shall be used. The law
now allows 800 Cinnamon to enter
the kingdom each quarter, and the
limit restriction TO permits may be
of use to ascertain how many are out
and how many new immigrants may
be allowed to enter the kingdom

0eorgia's Heroine.
Youths Companion,

One of the most picturesque figures of revolutionary days that has never been admitted to the pages oi history Nancy Hart--known throughout the south as "The Giantess" and the "Heroine of Georgia" She lived In tho wilderness of Ebert county and supported herself and her children by hunting and trapping. Nancy was over six feet in height, and with her mop of rcd hair and crossed eyes she assunsily was not prepossessing. Bat one of her contemporaries writes "ller voice was quiet aHd soft, and it she had the courage of man, she had beneath 1t tho heart of a woman"
 She espoused the Whig cause vehe- mently from the first outbreak ot the revolution. Six British soldiers, when pursuing dcserters, camc to her cabin and demanded food. Sho cooked them \ good dinner, and while they wore eating it hid their guns, drove away their horses, and locking tho doors sent word to her neighbors; Il have trapped six base Tories; come and hold them for me"
 During the winter, in the disguise of man, she frequently entered the British camp in Augusta and carried to Colonel Clarke the information shc gained there. On ono occasion when freshet rendered the ford across the Savannah river impossible, she n,ado a raft of logs, bound together by wild gapevines, and crossed triumphantly under fro of the enemy to tho camp of the Georgia troops. Another day, meeting puny little British soldier on the road, she took his gun from him and marched him before her into the Georgia camp.
 So great was the confidence of tho colonists in her discretion and vaior Clarke in command of fort filled with woman and children. A com. pany of British sklrmishcrs attacked it, but Nancy, herself in uniform, forced the scared women to put on their husbands' clothes, and 10 show themselves oa the @a!!s, while she kept up 30 vigorous fire from the cannon that the enemy fled and re- ported the fort to be fully manned and equipped.
 After the war Ebert county was invaded by two or three pcaoeablc squatters. Nancy fled before them. She packed her goods on pair of mules and cmignted into the wilder. ness of Kentucky, declaring that "so many neighbors left her no air to breathe" Among her descendants have been statesmen and soldiers. Much of their physical and mental vigor doubtless come from the old huntress, Nancy Hart.

THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER

upset their camp stools with inward merriment. As Sagebrush didn't start playing again quick enough to suit the old bear, he shaped himself for climbing the tree-''scaling the bal cony" one of the Britishers allowed in a whisper to the others.
 The three English sportsmen seemed nightly tickled at this last movement of the big brown bear, heap more so, I reckon, than Sagebrush did, for. as l believe 1 remarked in former letter, brown bears make no trouble about climbing tree. The music com menced again in pretty short order, and "Fm a Sojer" was rattletl otf with such astonishing vim and execution that the Britishers nudged one an- other in the ribs and nearly shook off their moccasins with suppressed mirth. They allowed afterwards, in explaining the reason of their merri- ment, that it was like Romeo and ,Iu- liet, people, l think they said, who used to hang out somewhere in the old country years ago and serenade each other by moonlight, climb balco- nies and generally cave around.
 Funny as the old bears antics seemed, we were, of course, ready with our Winchesters to keep him from climbing the tree; but it is easy enough to imagine that Ssgebrash was curious in his own mind as to how we were just at that moment viewing the situation. However, as soon as he commenced playing again the bear quit whining, let go the tree, and again turned loose, with every demon- stration of approval that bear ever made.
 Alter watching the bear dance until Sagebrush began to get pretty tired of play ing, we took deliberate aim through our brush barrier and let moonlight into his astonished carcass in four different places.
 This was a middling warm dose to give him at twenty paces, but, after thrashing around some he rallied and came charging at our stockade like an infuriated demon. Another volley, with the muzzles of our Winchesters almost buried in his shaggy wool, however, finished him up. Sagebrush slid down the tree and threw oil his bear skin, and on the way to the tent he owned up with laugh that when he saw the bear start to climb the tree he came near yelling out to know whether we were asleep, or what. It was a curious bit of adventure, this serenading the big brown bear by moonlight, but it settled the question once for all with Us as to bears being charmed with music As the Brit isher from India said, Il snakes and elephants and all manner of foreign varmint can be charmed with music, why not Rocky mountain bears, too? And now 1 have given them the tip, maybe some of you down east scien- tific galoots may come to understand why circus people always train bears to dance to music instead of lions or partners. The way figure 1t out is that it comes so natural for bear to take to mnsic and dancing that he vir- tually requires no training at all.
