in the middle OF, the road, he quaking
with fear, andturning his head from side
to side to catch thesound that might
confirm his fears. He looked like a
hunted beast, that knows not which
way to escape the hounds.
"What's that" he asked under his
breath quickly. "There's some one
on the road. It's his step. If you
have any mercy, save me from him."
While | was turning to look up the
road, to see if his fears were justified,
he CROPPED about until he caught hold
Of my arm.

his finer sense was not at fault.
On the brow of the hill-which
we were now descending-stood the
quaint figure of Brace. The light of
the rising sun shone upon him; but we
stood in the shadow Of the wood,
where the mist still hung over the
trodden earth.
"I do not hear him; where is he
now" Van Hoeck whispered.
He is standing on the hill, a couple
OF hundred yards behind us. He does
not see u.s.

I saw no possible reason for refus-
ing compliance with this request, and,
taking Ills arm, l led him along that
side OF the road where the shade was
deeper. But before we had gone /,

through the echoing woods to our
right, and Van 1loeck again stopped.

Electric LichtinQ.

The longest distance to which cleo
trio power is actually transmitted for
elect rio lighting in the United States
is about thirteen miles. A plant of
several thousand incandescent lamps
in Portland, Ore, is supplied with
current from generators at the falls OF
the Willamette river. An alternating
current Of 5000 volts potentialis en-
ployed. Quite recently it is reported
that the Westinghouse company of
Pittsburg, who designed and erected
.he Portland plant, have constructed
another one at Pomona, in Southern
California, in which about 1,OOOhorse
power is to be conveyed Is miles at q
pressure at 10000 volts. This plant,
if successful-and there appears no
reason why it should not be evil con-
stitute a notable achievement in cleo.

A a Princess.

A Dresden correspondent writes in
the Galignani Messenger: A few days
ago Princess Eleonore and Princess
Mathi]de OF Solms, who are staying
here, we're walking alorg q country
road outside the town. Suddenly
they heard the sound OF horses hoofs
close beside them, and turning saw
that the horse, upon which "a lady
was seated, was running away.
The rider appeared to have lost all
control over the animal, and scream
ed loudly for help. Without a mo-
ment's hesitation both the young
Princesses sprang at the horses head
as he approached them, and tried to
catch hold OF the bride.
This Princess EIeonore succeeded in
doing, but, unfortunately, the animal
gave a sudden toss OF his head, jerked
the rein out OF her hand, and kicked.
The Princess vas knocked down, and
it was found that she had sustained
severe injuries to her head and her
right foot. Her younger sister jumped
aside in time to save herself.

A Chicago Society Girl.

The part the young girl plays in
Chicago society is very important; in
comparison with that taken by the
young matrons and the older married
people, almost too much So 1t has
been stated that society exists only
as q matrimonial bureau, organized
and conducted solely for the benefit OF
the debutante, who lives n brief but
terhy existence in a shower of COM
pliments and flowers before she mar
ries and ~retires from view. This is an
over-statemert, but not so egregious
a n as might be wished. Older peo-
pie, with, OF course, some notable ex-
ceptions, do not consider society to
hold any obligations for them. There
are very few houses where dinners are
given with any reference to the bring
ing together of the. men and women
who, in the prime OF theirlives, are in
fuencing and determining the life CT
the city. Young and old people, also,
are very rarely asked together, which
is a. loss to both-to the young of the
desirable contact with minds OF force,
maturity and experience; to the old
of the joyful, refreshing influences OF
youth. Hence it happens that the
Inc see each other at the clubs, the
women at their luncheon parties and
literary societies, and a really regret
table separation of occupation and
thought establishes ITSELF Every pos.
sible protection is given to the debut
ante in her entrance into the world,
but here, as elsewhere in America,
she is permitted to follow her own in
clinations in heauestion OF marriage.

AStride a Crocodile,

A cayman from @ ncighboring la
COON had occasionally poached among
our ducks, says the engineer OF an
estate in India, as reported in "Tales
OF Travel" and we had been for some
days on the lookout for him. One
morning we discovered him lounging
in II of the ponds, after a nights
plumber.
Ira for my gun and fired at him.
The shct merely stirred the old rogue
up; he thrashed about in the water
for a minute, and then left the pond
and started for the morass.
I tried to get aim at his head, but
was unable to do so. At this mom-
ent David, an African wainman, came
up, and before | realized his purpose,
he had thrown himself astride the cro-
codile, grabbed his. fore paws and
held them doubled up across the crea-
ture's back.
The beast was Immediately thrown
upon his snout; and though able to
move his hind feet freely and slap his
tail about, his power being altogether
spent in a fruitless endeavor to grub
himself onward. He was obliged to
move in q circle, and of course was
pretty nearly confined to one spot.
The African kept his seat. He re-
ceived some hard jerks, but as mis-
seat was across the reptile shoulders,
he was we'll out OF danger from jaws
and tail so fong as he held on.
"Shoot i'm! Me got 'im!" the fell
low called to me.
I reloaded my gun, and getting good
aim at the crocodile's head, soon put
on end to his mischief. The old fell
low measured fifteen feet.

iron Rust and Fires.

A writer in Iron says that il oxide
of iron is placed in contact with
timber excluded from the atmosphere,
and is subjected to a slightly increased
temperature, the oxide will part with
it's oxygen and be converted into fine
particles of metallic iron.
These particles have a strong affinity
for oxygen, and if afterward exposed
to the action Of the atmosphere will
absorb oxygen sc rapidly as to become
suddenly red-hot. A sufficient quantity
OF such red-hot particles will produce
a temperature far beyond the ignition
point of dry timber.
Whenever iron pipes are employed
for the circulation Of any heated
medium, whether water, air or steam,
and r allowed to become rusty in
close contact with timber, it is only
necessary for the particles of metallic
iron to be exposed to the air-which
may be done by the mere expansion
or contraction OF the pipes-in order
to start q flame.
Many Of the fires which occur Sc
regularly at the beginning OF winter
may be due to this unsupported cause.

making, if one has the a%cuteness to
perceivethem," said Dave Henderson,
the Chicago theatrical manager. "Now,

Jim Maitland, II Chicago newspaper
friend of mine, has made a bigfortune
from the sale OF American pies in
England within the past ten years.
When Maitland announced to me ten
years ago his determination to throw
up a $25-a-week Job on the Chicago
Tribune and introduce the American
pie into England | thought he was
crazy. Mark the deep-rooted pre-
judice Of the b%eefeating Britishers
against the plebeian American pie,
and then you will realize the appar-
emily stupendous task that the rash
fortune-seeker undertook. But the
pie has conquered the English, and
Maitland is back in Chicago trying to
buy the Tribune from E'litor Medill."

That depends, madam, upon how
you feel. If you're suffering from
functional disturbances, irregulari-
ties or weaknesses, you're sure to
"look it." And d.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription is the remedy.
1t builds up and invigorates the
system, regulates and promotes the
proper functions, and restores health
and strength. It's a legitimate
medicine, not a beverage purely
vegetable, perfectly harmless, and
made especially for woman's needs.
In tho cure of all "female COM
plaints," it's guaranteed to give sat-
isfaction, or the money is refunded.
No other medicine for women is
sold SO. Think of that, when the
dealer says something else (which
pays him better) is just as good"
