and the pipe was discovered to be stopped
up by a number Of fish. The fish were
about twelve inches long and a number Of

TAGGART's LTTTLE WOMAN
AND HER PAPPY.
New York Recorder.
pet Lions.

An amusing sketch Of two lion whelps
which were adopted as pets during the
writer's residence in South Africa, is
given by contributor to Forest and
Stream. The lioness appeared to amuse
herself by playing pranks on human
strangers of her own sex, lying in ambush
for them under the dining table.
Fearing that something serious might
occur if I allowed my pets their liberty
any longer, l had large cage con.
structed, and for the first week or two
was obliged to spend much time in it with
them. The lioness fretted great deal
and the only way had of quieting her
was to go in and lie down, using the lion
as pillow, while she stretched herself
beside me with her head on my chest.
One day the sheriff informed me that
he had a summons in his Office for me to
serve as juryman. begged off, but he
was inexorable. A few days afterward
he rode up to my gate, and called my
servant to open it for him while hurried
to the lions cage.
Presently heard him calling me, and
on my answering he gradually found his
way to the den, in which was seated on
the lions recumbent body, while the
lioness sat behind me with her chin rest
ing on my shoulder. AS soon as he saw
me he sprang back, and cried:
"Come out of there !"
Hand that summons in here, and I
will do so. 'i'N
"Do you want my arm torn off 2"
"No, but want you to make legal
service of that paper by handing it to
me.
II shall not take any such risk, but
will tear up the paper il you will only
come out and save me from seeing you
torn into pieces" nL a.
"All right, do SO, and viii try to get
out alive" ..........,.. f....t t...'-
The paper was torn up, and ! stepped
ont Of the cage, much to my friend s
relief. A short time after l met the
judge in the street, who wished to know
if my mode Of dodging jury duty was the
one commonly practiced in my own
country.

child wipin' the flour from her hands
and snatchin' her sunbonnet from its
nail. M
i heerd shot after that. but strange
to say, neither Taggart nor little woman
showed up.
When the boys came in the pork was

mouth before every man-himself among
them-had left t.,s cabin on the run.
cussed the lameness that kept me from
going.
warn't surprised when I heard them
coming back, after such long time,
with slow and measured steps, carryin'
some burden 'atween them. I knew it
must be Taggart had hurt himself.
They came to the cabin door, and
every man had his hat off, an what they
carried was small.
Little woman!" Icried out the word.
@Where's Taggart's little woman?"
Some one turned the coat from the
sweet face and l saw her just as her
father spoke up, with more dignity
than ever saw him hev before.
There air Lynch law for murderers, n
he said, with his head dropping, "an'
there air plenty here to see it done.
Gentlemen, l don't keer to wait. I'm a
murderer in deed but not in intent. Oh,
my little woman Her pap as wouldn't
have harmed ha'r o. her head-he did
the deed, an he will die for it like u
man."
But Taggart's dying would not havo
brought her back. We went to Miners
Town and he'd the authorities come out
to investigated it, an we give little woman
such funeral as princess might envy.
for we dug her grave with our own
hands and blubbeIed over it.
But that was lonely home coming
when we left her for the last time out in
the hills, and went back into the cabin
where she had shed such light. an saw
her father sittin' there, bowed with his
own trouble, which, after all, couldn't
have been much worse than ourn. Only
it was his stupid bungling that had killed
her, when she went creeping along on
her hands and knees in the brush to
'sprise him, and he had mistaken her for
a rabbit. ....
We couldn't like the man before this.
an now it was hard not to hate him but
for one fact-he was her father, tn.
"pappy" that Taggart's little woman had
loved. So we did our best fur him, but
it wasn't fur long. One day we missed
him, and looked for him at our general
roundup-little woman's grave. Yes, he
was there, but stretched out, cold and still,
an whether he died Of broken heart or
an overdose Of his drug we never knowed.
There we buried him.
Green himself carved these words on
the board at the head: .,.
