marvellous and instructive attractions
of the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show

and realistic object lesson in that
portion of ancient history connected
with the wars of Granada and Column
bus voyage and discovery, and a mas
terly and thoIo ughly accurate reproduc-

were spent studying the historical docu-

inspecting all objects and material in
any way relating to the subject and era
III which the scenes OF the spectacle are
laid. and in gathering wealth of detail
concerning the costumes, weapons and

OF Photographic art was employed. and
elaborate plans and drawings made
for the guidance of the most

told them that he was there and
showed them where he slept.
They walked in as unceremOni-
OuSly as they had walked in upon
me. and Intercepted him at the points
Of their pistols. He told them he had
met me on the street aud asked me for
a supper and nights lodging, and that
l had given them to him. He said that
he had not slept well, because the bed
was not long enough for him to rest
comfortably upon, ard so he had
awakened off and on through the night.
He swore that L had not left the room
While he was in it, and that he had not
lett until about daybreak. This proved
my alibl, and was safe.
Those men who had taken me out in
the dark night and hanged me to the
limb of tree came back to the hotel
where l was lying and treated me like
brother. 1t was several days before l
regained consciousness and when L did
| had the old ap0plectic feeling in my
head and the iron collar about my
throat. Ny neck was badly cut. as you
may see from the scar which remains.
The pain was SO intense that | wanted
to die, and would have killed myself If
l could. But the hands which were
strong and willing to pull at the rope
were Just as strong and willing and far
more tender to hold me in bed in my
rawlings and to care for the man whom
they had brought so near to the gates of
eternity.
1t was four weeks before l recovered
sufficiently to be able to get about.
During that time no sick man ever re-
ceived more careful nursing then did
from those rough fellows. They seemed
to try by kindness to make amends for
the evil they had wrought me. In two
weeks more | was able to travel, and
you may be- sure did travel. My roll
of money had been given back to me :;
but when / asked for my bill the land
lord said l did not owe a cent, that
everything had been paid. And, as he
was one of the vigilantes, l suppose he
had stood a portion OF the expense.
Well, came East and have never
since had any desire to see anything of
the wild life of the West. 1t may be
that. as they say. when man is hanged
he does not suffer pain. Perhaps in a
legal execution the fall of the drop jerks
his senses away from him. But assure
you that l had pain. and such severe
pain that l would rather die by almost
any other death than to be hanged
again.

Canada thence to Isle Royal and re-
turn to the original port. They were
very much pleased with the trip. and
have no end of story in relating the
sights along the coast of Minnesota and
among the hundreds of islands seen on
the trip made by the boat while visiting
a chain of fishing camps, from which it
gathers up part of its stock of trout and
white fish. DR.. Mayo enjoyed the trip,
more especially as he visited scenes
which have been only memory for
forty years. In the fiftieS he was agent
Tor company that prOspected for cop
per along the Minnesota shore bordering
on the lake. Judge Wilson was so pleased
with tile hundreds Of islands and the
low temperature that he determined to

but was unnecided as to which of the

for his camp, it was not decided
az to whether Cape Thunder, on a bay

many other harbors in the Isle Royal
series was the most desirable. The tenn
perature for summers all that could be
desired. The lake water is about forty
degrees III temperature, and as the land
is covered with bushes and trees. the
temperature of the air is not much
higher. DR.. Mayo expressed the view
that the main considerations in locating
are to have available tiinbhr for build
ing hut, to be able to secure wood for
fire that would be needed almost con-
tinuously for comfort, and to be in
position to receive supplies from the
occasional steamer that may pass. The
gentlemen have much to say in praise
OF the pleasant trip. and have fund of
fish stories gathered from Capt. Hector
and fellow passengers. DIR. Mayo also
added much to his legendary lore. and

on the beautiful bays and islands seen
more fully than he did two decades ago.

A MEANS OF GRACE.
There's Nothing Like Shadow
Dance to Test Curves and Poses.

There's Nothing Like q Shadow
Dance to Test Curves and Poses.
New York Recorder.
Don't waste your sympathieS On the
girl whom you may see wriggling her
fingers and hands and generally comfort
ing herself in public. She hasn't any
saints dance, and isn't going to have.
She is simply going through her Delsar-
team movements, unconscious, perhaps,
that people are looking and wondering
and plying.
But she is all right. She is training
herself into future gracefulness of pose
and action, for the wise girl knows that
one of the most admired of feminine
charms is grace and ease of manner,
and she is doing her level best to &C
Quire it.
There is something irresistible in a
gesture supremely graceful and eX-
pressive. 1t adds wonderfully to beauty
of form and feature, and changes on
otherwise plain woman into an interest
ing and captivating one.
Exercising in public is not quite
tactful thing for the girls to do, how
ever, for. you see, these pretty airs aud
graceS will be more effective if they have
the appearance of being dyed in the
WOOL"
Exercising before mirror IS not so
good method, either, for you have
background of whatever is OH the walls
or in the room behind you, and your
gestures are all fumbled up with pict-
ures, bric-a-brac, furniture, etc.
You ought to have clear-cut outline
of yourself and your movements, and
this can be best obtained by strong
light casting your shadow on bare
white or light-colored wall. A sheet
placed taut and smooth against some
thing in the room will do as we'll.
Electric lights are the best, but, not
being always practicable to have them,
a bright gaslight will answer, the object
being to have silhOuettes as sharply out
lined as possible. You have a greater
variety of points of view. and your
curves and lines are not obscured and
broken up in promiscuous lot of arti-
Giles reflected in the mirror.
If you want to find what kind of
gait you have, step on to smoothly
paved sidewalk some evening and walk
with an electric light casting your
shadow before.
You will then see whether you have a
wobbly, jerky or swaying gait, or
smooth, even, swan-like motion. You
can also see if one shoulder or one hip
is higher than the other.

still nothing extraordinary turned

closed eyes.

start up, and saw sight that made my
heart jump to my throat. Coming
slowly out of the stream, wavirg its
head to and fro, espied an enormous
anaconda. The stream was more than
twenty feet across, but may l never
speak again if his head and five feet or
more of his neck weren't clear out of

tail on the other. For moment l sat

fright at the sight. There was nothing
to do but watch. so sat there and saw
him come out of the water.
HE was about fifty yards away, and
1 noted his colors were different from
the usual run of anacondas. Black on
top, he had gray sides with brown
spots, and only his belly was yellow.
He must just have cast his skin, for it
shone dazzlngly. For awhile he lay
on the grass, then he raised
head and wagged 1t up and down. How
he spotted me l can't even guess. but
when I noticed that he was looking
straight at me / felt decidedly
queer. My gun, double barrel. was
loaded with buckshot, but l had no

it would not do to run. for no man can

man is the worst kind of wallfower,
much to his disgust. In one camp on
the Grand Ronde river there are seven
teen manageable Indian girlS,and they
all want white men for husbands and
shun their would-be lovers in the camp.
The father of one of the girls makes an
open offer of 200 head OF good horses to
the young white man who will marry
his daughter. The old Indian says. how
ever, that he will not accept any kind of
''hoodlum" for son-in-law; the man
must be of good character and address.
