There's not a light in the leaden skies,
The world is wrapped in rain,
The color-angel has shut his eyes.
And the sun is asleep again;
But Marguerite by the window stands
Erraptured eyes of blue
Are travelling far into fairy lands
AS she looks a prism through.
turn to smile on the eager child,
And old dreams rise again;
know what colors run rich and wild
Ger the blurred wet window pane;
A rainbow glory floods the air
And jewels the ashen hue:
How many of us, like the baby there,
Have looked prism through!
Oh! fairy prism, that life bestows
(And breaks too soon, alas)
Oh!lovely vision that throbs and glows
Through youths enchanted glass!
All! how will it DO when the prism falls,
And gone is the gold and blue?
When the cold, cold voice of the real calls,
And the sweet dreams come not true.
We all have visions-we all look through
prism that falls and breaks;
Alas! for the dreams that come not true
And the souls that light rsakes!
Rut when Times glass falls from our hands,
The spirits unveiled view
May find lost lights in letter lanls,
II only the dreams come true.

the people called out wildly for Mephis-
topheles to come out. The latter, however,
did not appear, and after long search an
attendant came to the manager and said
that Mr.. Heinrich had been found lying I'M
conscious in the sub-cellar, where he must
have fallen through trap. He was taken
home, and those who undressed him were
astonished to see on his shoulders number
of deep scratches like the marks of tiger
claws.
His illness was long one, and as soon as
he was convalescent the theatre manager
made him brilliant offer, but he refused
to act again, for he did not care to risk his
soul second time; moreover, he knew that
his acting could never equal that of his
dreadful substitute.
At the end of two or three years, having
come into modest Inheritance, Heinrich
married his pretty Katy, and the two sat
together before q Saxony stove in cozy
parlor, and talked of their children's
future.
Theatre-goers still speak with admiration
of that marvellous performance, and are
astonished at Heinrich's righteousness in
abandoning the stage at the very moment
of his triumph.-From the French of Theo-

THE DEVILS TRIUMPH.
A Tryst in the Imperial Garden.

A Tryst in the Imperial Garden.
It was toward the end of November. The
Imperial Garden of Vienna was deserted; a
sharp north wind was whirliug crisp saffron
colored leaves about, and the rose bushes
were sad-looking and broken, with their
branches trailing in the mud. Tho main
pathway, however, being covered with
gravel, was dry and clean, and although
very desolate, the garden was not without a
certain melancholy charm. At the end of a
long arcade was an indistinct horizon of
hills, almost drowned in BLUSH vapors and
evening mists. while on the other side the
view extended to the Prater and the DAN
ube. 1t was walk fit for poet.
A young man was striding up and down
this path impatiently. His dress was hand
some. though little theatrical, consisting
of black velvet coat trimmed with gold
braid and bordered with fur, pantaloons of
gray tricot cloth and high boots with tas-
sells. He was about 81 or 2s years old, his
features were pale and regular and his ex-
preston was one of shrewdness. while
irony seemed to Turk in his eyes and in the
corners of his mouth. At the university,
which he seemed to have left but recently,
for he wore the students cap, he must have

trouble, and probably shone in the first
rank of the burschen and foxes"
The very short space to which he confined
his walk showed that he was awaiting some
one, probably a woman, for the Imperial
Garden in November was hardly a suitable
place for business appointments. And, in
deed, 1t was not long before a young girl
appeared at the end of the path. A black
silk hood covered her rich blonde hair.
which the evening damp had partly I'M
curled; her skin, naturally as white as vir-
gin wax, had received from the biting cold
the hue of a Bengal rose, and she was wrap
ped in sable-trimmed mantle which made
her look charmingly like the statue of La
Frileuse. She was accompanied by a black
water spaniel-a most convenient chRperone,
and one whose indulgence and discretion
could be relied upon.

ADVENTURE WITH A LION.

The Natural History club, Of this place
has been presented with a finely mounted
specimen of puma, or American lion, by
Christopher Davidson, who killed the ami
NAL recently in the Salmon River noun
tains, which lie some miles east of here,
writes q correspondent of the Globe Demo-
crat from Challis, Idaho. 1t is magnif
cent male, measuring nearly 81 feet from
the muzzle to the tip Of the long, cat-like
tail, with the jaws drawn back over the
keen, sharp teeth in snarl that breathes
still defiance to its foes. Davidson, who is
the owner Of one of the largest stock-rais-
ing ranches of this vicinity, relating the adj
venture in which he killed the puma, says:
My fine-blooded mare, Jennie McNeal,
broke out from her stable ono night last
month with her 6-weeks-old colt and by
morning had wandered beyond the outer
most limits of my place, which have not
yet completely fenced in. On discovering
her absence. started my help at once in
every direction to search for her, and my
self went ON horseback towards the noun
tains. Obeying an instinst of habit more
than anything else, took my gun and re-
volver with me, though I anticipated no
occasion e for their use: But . haa not gone

very grateful to the chance that had sent
me of armed. There had been light. slow
rain late the Afternoon before and the
ground was still moist, though not muddy
from it, and on the spots where the grass
was scant could see the prints of the mares
and colts hoofs, and after a while Noticed
the faint marks of some soft-padded foot
close upon the others. / felt certain that
this meant my horses had on their tracks an
enormous wildcat or else puma, though
these latter animals have heen rarely
seen Of late years, and ] hurried on, for
knew these mountain lions are particularly
partial to the tender flesh of colt and
make very little ado about attacking a
grown horse when hungry or enraged.
s'The tracks were still so fresh that
hoped to catch up with the mare and her
colt before their stealthy foe attacked them,
and by riding hard came in sight of them
just AZ they reached Salt Spring Valley.
The mare was trotting along With her head
in the air and ears thrown forward, making
an uneasy sort of noise and shutting az if
she 5acented the hiding puma, and every
;noWShd them she d stop to wait for the
colt, that came limping after her as If 1t
was tagged out and could not keep up. I
saw nothing of the lion on entering the val
ley, but in a few moments a movement in
in the tall grass, just in front of a clump of
trees, and about 20 feet to the left of the
colt, caused me to suspect that he was
there. So waiting unit. l caught glimpse
