the latter's charges are horned crea-
lures. Besides this, the thorough
vaquero is rarely seen in the North.
In other respects, however, his life
and habits are very similar to those
of the cowboy; but he is better paid,
and actually his life is in greater
danger; for, while the cowboy may
have occasionally to break bron-
cho or half-wild horse, that is the
vaquero's regular occupation, and
he may be called on to ride five or
six a day for weeks at time.

Not Exactly the Same Complaint.

~0~&S~~S~J
The winds were whistling around
the corners of the city streets and
ever and anon a sharper gust than
usual futtered the tattered gar
ments of little waif of humanity
who stood shivering in the most
woebegone of attitudes. It wasn't
the first time she had struck such
an attitude-that was her business.
It was the first time for long time,
however, that she had struck such
hard luck. For four long and weary
hours she had in vain solicited aid
from the purse-proud .aristocrats
who thronged the busy street in
mad pursuit of wealth and some
times of their hats as the AFORESAID
hats were borne hither and thither
by the sportiye blast With an almost
iendish alacrity.
Suddenly q gleam Of hope-the
FIRST that day-sprang into the little
creatures eyes. And why? There
might have been seen approaching
the form of one whose womanly
heart had never yet failed to re-
spond to any tale Of sorrow or sut'
er,ng. Timidly the little ons ap'
preached her.

GHOST OF 4 JOCKEY.
Stablemen at Rochester Fright
ened by an Apparition.

Some years ago. in a running race
at Detroit, Danny Mackin, jockey,
was killed by the horse he was rid
ing making sudden and vicious
bolt and hurting his rider to the
ground, writes Rochester cores
pondent. When the jockey was
picked up a stream of blood was
running from a hole in his temple
down his cheek and neck. A story
has been current among jockeys
and stablemen ever since Mackin's
death that his ghost walks at night
among race-track stables, the quest
of the specter being presumably the
horse that killed the jockey. The
story has always been believed by
stablemen, aud if any ever had
doubts of it they are dispelled now,
for the ghost itself was seen by at
least a dozen of them at the Roch-
ester Driving Park stables on Fri
day night.
The midnight watch of stablemen
had come on duty, and the men
were lounging in front of the sta
bles, when one of them saw slim
figure in white approaching the
stables from a clump Of trees on
the grounds. The man called the
attention of his companions to the
object. They all saw it clearly as it
glided noiselessly toward the stable.
When the apparition came full in
the light of the large hanging lamp
in front of the stable and revealed
the figure, clad in jockey garb and
face as white as the clothes, with
a red streak running from the right
temple down the cheek and neck,
like line of blood trickling down.
the stablemen were paralyzed with
terror. The specter jockey passed
into the stable through the open
door. The door leading to the
stalls where the racers were was
closed, but the ghost kept right on,
passed through the door as if it had
been opened and disappeared. One
of the stablemen recovered himself
sufficiently to think that perhaps
this might be clever trick of some
one to get at the horses to do them
harm, and he hurried forward and
opened the door leading to the
stalls, with the intention of prevent
ing any such purpose. Two or three
of his companions followed him.
The apparition was moving slowly
along the stalls, stopping an instant
at each one and then passing to the
next. The horses seemed to be
aware of the mysterious presence:
They neighed and plunged and
stamped in their stalls as the
specter passed along.
The stablemen were again para
lyzed by this second vision of the
Jockey ghost and stood motionless
and speechless at the door. The
apparition glided to and paused at
every stall in the stable, turned its
face for a moment toward the ter
ror-stricken men in the door and
disappeared as suddenly and mys-
teriously as it had come. That they
had seen the wandering ghost OF
poor Danny Mackin not one stable
man Of the midnight watch has the
shadow of doubt.-N. Y. Sun.

An Incident of War.


as lieutenant in the British army
when the Franco-Prussian war
opened" said an Englishman a. few
days ago to some man at the bar of
the Huffman House. II had etill
some pretty strong hankering after
an active military career, and as I
had been disappointed in the busi-
ness project that induced me to re-
linquish the hope of seeing further
service with the red-coats, l joined
the Foreign Legion of the French
army, and in the following half year
any craving l might have had for
fighting was amply gratifed. / had
many adventures, many of them
startling enough, but one, to which
no personal danger was attached,
stands out at times with unpleasant
distinctness in my memory.
IA few weeks before all French
hopes of final success were buried
at Sedan, a portion of my corps was
detached to engage party of Prus-
slams that had been harassing some
villages near Metz. We found the
enemy readily enough, but they
had been strongly reinforced, and
though we drove them back after
several hours of very hard fighting,
we suffered severely.
"Night had fallen before the firing
ceased, and was sent with an order
to an officer on a distant part of the
field. The moon was shining as l
returned, and l was walking my
horse, as the animal was very tired,
when l refined him in quickly, be-
cause feeble voice called to me.
Sir" it said, in very good Eng
lish, II recognize in you an officer
of the Foreign Legion. You are an
Engiishman, / think. Will you do
me very great and last favor?''
81 dismounted, and found a
young French officer lying at my
feet. His sword and pistols were
gone ,and he was desperately wound
ed. His eyes were almost closed,
and the death damp lay cold and
heavy on his forehead, and little
specks of foam and blood were on
his lips. One bullet had passed
completely through his body, tear
ing his lungs in its passage, and he
was gashed and perforated in half
dozen other places.
"What can l do for you2" /
asked.
81 am suffering horribly he
gasped, and l may life for an hour
yet. Will you have the great kind
ness to blow out my brains and end
my agony?'
II looked very closely at the poor
fellow. l know something about
gunshot wounds and it was as clear
to me as is the sun at noon that he
had no earthly chance of living
until dawn.
Il cannot take your life," said
but if you desire it will lend you
my pistol and turn my head away
"'Thank you, he muttered, CRATE
fully; that will do just as we'll.
have still enough strength to pul
the trigger. You will find a flask
of eau-de-vie and a bundle of cigar:
in the pocket of my cloak. They
are yours, my friend. Take them
| entreat you. Adieu T!
"Silently handed him the weapon
and turned away. A sharp repor
rang out. When looked again a
the Frenchman he had ceased t.
suffer. l took the pistol from hi
hand and rode away quickly.
81 have been condemned for tn
part played in this tragedy, but
have never blamed myself"
