MOUNTAIN MEADOW MASSACRE,
Early Life of John D. Lee.
fConmllllieatedA

My long experience as reporter for the public press has made me so accustomed to take out the ready pencil and note down items, that many times l write down items that I never expect to use, which lie for years unnoticed and forgot ten. To-day, while going to Springdale, 1 remembered one of these long forgotten sketches, and, as it has a vivid interest 10 the peo- pie of this section, give it as noted down by me at the time of the narration.
 was at a revival meeting in Delta county, Texas, at which l was to preach. The congregation was slowly gathering in and we were awaiting the preaching hour meath the cooling shade of all old oak. An aged man. with locks as white as snow, and past all physical labor, was resting upon a blanket upon the ground, and seemingly unconscious of his sur roundings.
 Some one mentioned the Moun tain Meadow Massacre. Suddenly the aged man raised to sitting posture, and grooming in agony, his eyes shed tears like rain. Recov- ering himself, h5 said: Il used to know John D. Lee" Forgetting all else hut that 1 was about to get rich items, 1 out with my pencil and book and noted down, as near as l can quote him, the following:
 Il was yonns boy then, and small for my age. l heard hor- rible tale of cruelty to q dog. A strange boy had come into our set tlement and, becoming angry at his dog, with q rock beat out the poor creatures eyes. Taking out bis knife he next cut out his dogs tongue and cut him in several places till death stopped the poor animals suffering. That boys name WAS John D. Lee We were all filled with horror, and We little boys fled whenever we saw him.
 "Oul school trustees kept him out ot school for q long time on ae. count of our terror of him, but young Lee promised so iaithfully that he would obey the rules and be 2 good boy that at last he was admitted. At first we fled as we would from a rattlesnake, but at last we became more accustomed to him and even let him partly win our confidence But Lee was quiet but short time. Becoming mad at one of the boys he coaxed him away from the school house and they were both lost from view. Happily small boy saw this and told our teacher. Calling to some of the larger boys to go with him, they hurried Tn the direction where Lee was last seen, and soon q ghastly sight was before them, The poor boy was tied up, gag in his mouth, and Lee striking him with hickory, the blood already running from hls gashes. Our teacher felled the young brute 10 the ground, and then with the help of the older boys he was bound and fearfully punished, yet no groan escaped him. Mattering vengeance against the boys who aided in his reinstatement, he got his books and left the school.

Amanda B. Jenner, Northampton, Mass, writes Common gratitude im- peis me to acknowledge the great bene- fits have derived for my children from the use of Ayers most excellent Cherry Pectoral. I had lost two dear children from croup and consumption, and had the greatest fear of losing my only re- naining daughter and son, as they were delicate. Happily, 1 find that by giving them Ayers Cherry Pectoral, on the first symptoms of throat or lung trouble, they are relieved from danger, and are be- coming robust, healthy children.
 "ln the winter of 1885 l took bad cold which, in spite of every known remedy, grew worse, so that the family physician considered me incurable, sup posing me to be in consumption. AS last resort 1 tried Ayers Cherry Pecto- ral, and, in short time, the cure was complete Since then l have never been without this medicine. l am fifty years of age, weigh over ls0 pounds, and at- tribute my good health to the use of Ayers Cherry Pectoral. "-G.W .Youker, Salem, N. J.
 Last winter I contracted severe cold, which by repeated exposure, be- came quite obstinate. l was much troubled with hoarseness and bronchial irritation. Alter trying various medl- cines, without relief, I at last purchased a bottle of Ayers Cherry Peetoral. On taking this medicine, my cough ceased almost immediately, and l have been well ever since. ."-Rev. Thos. B. Russell. Secretary Holston Conference and r. E. of the Greenville District, M.

1t Attacks a Snake Which Was About
to strike ITS Sleeping Master.
One Charles Durand, Of whose travels
and adventures a book has been written,
owned cockatoo, which lie carried
about with him on his journeys. Tho
birds name was Billy, and no seems to
have boon as wise as he was loving. flo
came to his master with n good char
acter, having been tho careful attendant
on sick man, bringing him lunches of
grapes to quench his thirst and refusing
himself to cat one till the sufferer had
set the example.
Durand was asleep III his tent in those
not attitudes, where strange wild beasts
and dangerous reptiles abound, when he
was aroused before his usual time. of
waking by Il sharp, shrill cry of the bird
of Time To rise! time to risc.' accom-
panied by violent Tapping of the
wings. and then a series OF sharp
screams i'll the coclatoo's own natural
tone. SO awakened, Charles looked
around, wondering what had disturbed
his fcathcrcd friend. The cause was soon
plain-a deadly snake lay coilcd up close
to his bed, which, rs he gazcd, reared
Itself up and prepared TO spring on tho
dcfcnsclcss man. just when he thought
that all hope was at an end tho brave
cockatoo sDrang from his perch, seized
the reptile by the neck and held him
tight till his master could summon help
from without. The snake was then
killed and Billy vas raised 10 still
