Goodness in Danger.

Lord William LenOZ, in his "RecOl-
lectiOns," tells a story of the GOODNESS
of the Duke of Wellington. The
French, with fresh force double that
of the Duke, were closing in upon his
faded troops, one stormy night in
Spain. Wellington completed his pre-
parations and then turning to q scout
asked: How long viii it be before
they can reach us ?"
"HaIf an hour, was the reply.
"Then can go to Sleep" he said,
and then wrapping his cloak about
him, he dropped where he stood in the
muddy trench and In an instant was
asleep. He woke when the bugles of
the enemy sounded in his ears.
Napoleon, his soldiers were accus-
toned to declare, not only slept sound
ly when under fire, but even when rid
ing on horseback.
General Grant also had the same
faculty of falling Instantly asleep, even
in the face of danger.
This singular physical trait is not
more a proof Of courage than cause of
it; the brain, in those brief moments
Of sleep, finds new vitality, and wax
ems ready for the conflict again,
A story is told of a famous English
Admiral, Sir Sydney Smith, whose
ship, the Antelope, in a terrible storm
IN the North Sea, was driven among
the rocks. Sir Sydney summoned his
officers to the cabin.
Gentlemen, you know our cOndi-
ton. We are driving on to the break
ers. I acknowledge that can do moth
ing more. If any of you can make a
suggestion, now is the time.
There was unbrOlzen silence.
"Then there is nothing to be done
but to await our fate" He touched the
bell. Pierre, bring up the coffee"
A story came from Switzerland a
year ago of a mOuntain-guide, whose
name was not preserved. He, with two
others, was leading a party over one OF
the most precipitOus passes Of the
! Higher Alps The men, as is usual,
were tied to each other bv long rope.
As they scaled the wall of ice they
slipped on the edge of the frightful
chasm. This man was at the end OF
the rope. Without his weight there
was chance for the others to regain
their footing; with it, there was none.
He cast a glance down at the dark
abyss, filed with fathOmless SHOWS,
/ then drew his knife from his belt, say
/ ing quietly to the man next him:
Tell mother how it was, Jose.
/ He cut the rope and fell, never to be
/ seen of mortal man again Youth S

the Indians, not the sage brush. Then there
was the irOn-Wood Cpaio de hierrO), that
looks like very fine spruce variety OF the
mesquite. Its hardness gives it its name,
and it deserves it. 1t takes an ak to fell

enJ trees is always the same, and that OF
the different axes is not. even this ratio has
to be changed occasionally, and always In
favor of the tree.
America, and Mexico has big plurality,
while a majority of these can be found along
this end OF the Sonora Railway. There is
the giant pitahaya, som etimeS with q dozen
arms. each as big as a fence post and from
twenty to thirty feet in height. Each arm
has score OF pulpy ribs along its sides.
and each rib has button Of thorns every
inch along its length, each button having
twenty to twenty five thOrns sticking from
it. They tell me that, when a hunter is
sorely pressed by peccaries, if he will
climb pltanaya cactus about ten feet the
thOrns are so thick and terrible in their
effect that the peccarIes viii not dare to

they may be.
Then there is the choya or eholla cactus,

worst of all.
our first destination was to ranch two
miles to the southeast of the town, owned
by Col Munyoz. Here we would get a
Yaqut Indian for a guide and learn the
latest quotations as to the Deccary market
Shortly after rising in the morning, heavy
clouds were seen in the northeast, which
kept spreading and coming nearer and
nearer. with vivid flashes of lightning and
loud rum blings of thunder, until just about
the time we were half way to the ranch OF
Col. Munyoz it broke all over US with the
full fury Of a Sonora thunderstorm. Its
worst feature was its everlasting persist
ency. / never saw q thunderstorm hang
on for six or seven hours before in my life;
but this did, much to our personal discOm-
fort, and. worst of all, to the serious detri-
ment Of the hunt.
Arriving at the ranch, we found that the
YaQui Indian guide, who by the way was a
famous peccary hunter, was absent working
in d distant part Of the hacienda. Now a
hacienda in Sonora is about the size of a
back county in most Of our States, and it
requires an efficient messenger service to
get over one inside of half a day. We sent
for him, however, and as a small boy pres
ent volunteered the information that he
thought he could guide the party to where a
pig might be lurking in the brush, we
thought we would take a short spin with
him while the Yaqui Indian was coming in.
He based his assurance OF a jabali on the
rain that had been falling. which brought

if there had been none. There was no horse
for the youngster, so Senior Canon took
him on behind, and we started out in the
pelUing rain after the poor little rigs, as
one of the senOras of the ranch put it. AS
the poor little pigs have been known to keep
a man up a tree for three days, we felt more
like wasting Winchester ammunition on
them tn an we did in wasting sympathy.
The rain now came down in torrents,
vivid sheets of lightning played in our very
faces, while the rumbling of the thunder was
often so loud that we could not hear the
shoutings to each other. 1t was not worth

An English naturalist, Mr. A. a.
Swinton, has collected and anaIvzed
over one hundred nOices-ancient and
modern, true and fictitious relating to
the great sea-serpent. He is thus forced
to the conclusion that the creature Is "a
venerable sailors yarn derived from
ocular impressions, while. quite apart
from all other considerations. It is
mainly impossible that a species of air
breathing serpent should lie at the
bottom of the ocean and be so seldom
seen" He finds that the enormously
long tentacuiar arm Of the giant squids
or calamars- distinguished from the
better known cuttIe-fish by their cvlin-
drieal bOdies-have given rise 20 a
story Of the great sea-serpent.

A STRICTLY JudtciaI Answer.

One of the best stories of white
haired, white-chOkered, courteous Cal
win Record, is about mellow old law
yer who used to live on the banks of
the Androscoggin. The Squire was
given to deep pOtations and was famous
for his fine distinctions. 1t is said that
IN special pleading he could split a hair
even more closely than Mr.. Record can
himself.
But often after the shades of night
had fallen, the Squire might have been
seen struggling home so booty that he
apparently could not split a shingle, to
say nothing of a hair.
One night when he was drunken than
usual, he staggered completely out OF
his course and could not find 1t. Real
izing that he was lost and drifting into
unfamiliar regions, he called at house
to ask for information.
Madame, he graveIy said to the
lady who came to the door, candle In
hand, can you tell (hic) me where
Squire Blank lives ?"
Certainly" she said, and gave him
full directions.
But as she talked and looked, and as
her candle gradually brought out the
features of the man before her. a puz-
lied expression came into her face, and
she finally asked; "But isn't this
Squire Blank ?"
Madame" replied the old lawyer,
assuming a judicial air, that is en-
tirely (hic) immaterial. "-LelUisto7l

individually.
When in Guaymas, on the eastern coast

This southern part Of the Sonora Railway
would be interesting in the extreme to
person who has never seen our great and
growing Southwest. Its vegetation is the
most curious, although the surrounding
scenery is picturesque enough by itself; but
fine scenery is to be viewed in thousand
places in our own country. Not so with
such wonderful plant-groWth as we saw

cowboy is not really as dangerous as
he would like to have people believe.
A little affair occurred at Staten Isl
and.when FOrepaugh Was.exhibiting a
Wild West show In connection with his
menagerie.
Captain Bogardus, the champion Off
hand shot, and Suspender Jack were
rival attractions, the latter being a
cowboy of the most pronounced type.
They got into dispute, when BOgar-
dus suddenly seized Suspender Jack by
his luxuriant switch and slammed him
down on the hard ground with con-
siderable force, after which BOgardus
jOlted the cowboys tOuEnure with
several kicks from welI-deveIoped
brogan.
Now, according to all the traditions
of the frontier, Suspender Jack should
have, as an overture to the subsequent
performance, shot an aperture about
the size Of a general delivery window
of a country pOstOfice into the anatomy
of Captain BOgardUs. Then the in
trepid cowboy, with a whoop, should
have removed the dandruff in the Cap
tain's hair along with his reeking scalp.
For dessert, Suspender Jack should
also have bitten a chunk about the size
Of q frog out of the Captains cheek.
This, in view Of the traditional
ferocity of the cowboy, was the least
that was expected of him; but Sus-
pender Jack went back on all the ira
ditiOns of the border. The cowboy
disappeared almost as suddenly as a
broken dollar bill, and he didn't stop
running until he reached the Office of
a justice of the peace, his wild, luxu-
RANT switch swapping viciously in the
vacuum caused by the velocity of his
fight. Bogardus was arrested and
fined SO and costs. During the ex-
animation Bogardus tainted Suspender
Jack with being a dime museum COW
boy, and still Bogardus didn't have to
spill any Of his gore.
