horror of the situation, but was at loss
what to do. He feared to fire lest he
might shoot his companion, and he
also feared that if he didn't kill the
snake instantly it would dash its fangs
into the PROSTATE man.
While both men we're thus stupehed
with fear the bushes again parted and
another actor was on the scene. 1t
was the dog. He at once saw his
masters peril, and, crouching with his
belly almost on the ground, he slowly
crept toward the snake. The latter
watched every move Of the deg, as 1t 1t
knew the duel was to the death. On
came the dog, creeping slowly as a
snail, then, when within five feet, with
one leap of almost lightning like
rapidity he was on the snake. The
bound was so sudden that the snake
had no time to strike, and before the
two men could realize what had hap
pencd the reptile was torn to shreds.
The two men took the dog to the
creek and thoroughly washed his
mouth, and to their joy, found nc
scratches.

A Battle Royal.

Love challenged me- so |, proud in my strength
OF worldly armor, to the LATHE gave con-
sent.
We were TO strive until years short length
Had run-and thus pleasure new to life
was lent
Love brought his magic arts in play, and !,
On the defensive, fought alone, but neither
gained.
And so the springtime of the year passed by,
While Love still fought undaunted, nor was
/ unclaimed.
The summer fed; the leaves burned with
frost's flame.
still regarded Love and all his arts with
scorn,
Until across my path Ne@ra came,
Then feared that the year too quickly would
be gone.

And sought to win her at whatever cost
OF worldly pride, and now my only pain
Is this: What would life have been worth il
Love had lost?

There's another land and better,
We are told,
Where the slave shakes off his fet'a"
And where worth is never debtor
Unto gold.
Thither often are we turning
Weary eyes,
And our heavy hearts are yearning,
Night and day are throbbing, burning,
For it's skies.
There that foolish superstition,
Pride of birth,
Finds its sudden demolition,
And our beings final mission
Is of worth
There the insolence of power
Falls away,
And the proudest soul must cover.
For the spirit takes no dover
From the clay.
Common lives have wondrous splendor
In that light,
For the spirit meek and tender
Puts to shame the kings defender
Shorn of might
Natures touched with fires seraphic
Shed their care,
And on peace grit islands Sapphic,
Far from fretful toll and traffic,
Dream and dare.
Laws through years of wrong descended
There are changed;
Customs with injustice blended,
Crecds for centuries defended,
Rearranged.
Heaven has solace without measure
You and
Should not dream of earthly pleasure,
But should think about our treasure
In the sky.

OYSTERS GROWING IN ALASKA.
Experts Pronounce Them of Superior
Quality and Like Those Of the East.


For some time past it has been
rumored in California that large beds
of oysters had some months since been
discovered in certain waters in Alaska.
The location has not been stated, but
it has been understood that the oysters
were entirely different from any found
hitherto on this coast, being much larger
and as fine, or almost as fine, as the
best Eastern oysters.
News is now received from Washing.
ton that these oysters are in the vicinity
OF Kilisnoo. This special information
under a Washington date was received
yesterday, and is as follows
Omitted States Fish Commissioner
Mcdonald has obtained the consent of
the Treasury Department to avail him
self of the services Of Special Agent
Max Pracht, having in view the investl.
CATION of certain oyster beds said to
exist in the vicinity of Kilisnoo, Alaska
Specimen shells from this locality, OBJ
tanned fr m natives in the employ of
the Alaska Guano Company, were sub
mitted to the ichthyologist of the Com
mission during the recent visit Of the
special agent to this city, and were pro
nounced by the ichthyologist to be of a
superior variety. Proper appliances
have been forwarded to Special Agent
Pracht at Stks, with instruct ons to
secure and pack some oysters for trans
shipment to the Commissioner. If the
report Of the ichlly plogist is favorable,
steps will be taken to secure spat and
young oysters for the purpose OF trans
planting to the waters of Chesapeake
bay"
Hitherto it has been supposed that
the waters of Alaska were too cold for
oysters, but Id residents of Ala>ka
now here point out that this is an error.
They say that the Japan current strikes
and influences greatly portion of the
waters of that great country, and that
oysters can live and thrive there the
same as anywhere else in the country.
The California and Shoalwater Bay
oysters, as everyone here knows, are
small and sweet. By many Caifornlans
they are preferred to the Eastern
product. The newly discovered oysters
of Alaska, while as large as those Of
the East, are said to have much the
same flavor as the California oysters

"Lovinal LovinaW Then he wrote it in
large letters, and holding it at an arm

At length Mr.. Smythe became restless

GE MS IN VERSE.
An Old Maid.

Serene she sits, her knitting in her hand,
While round her clusters q childish band,
And she weaves romances to suit each mind
OF dreadful giants or fairies kind.
Though her hair Is gray, her heart Is still young
And happy always the children among,
And the world may pass when she gets a book
She's quite content in her little nook.
But she's ready to work when need comes by,
With her eyes on earth, her thoughts on high:
Slow with her anger, In sympathy quick
To help the weary, wicked or sick.
Has she missed her life. this woman alone7
II SO, she knows not, utters no moan.
She thinks not Of missions, of rights or power
But tries with duty to fill each hour.
Her work for others takes husbands place.
Home lies in many q loving face,
And for children, wherever shines the sun
Her heart goes out to them, every one

Man is something like book
Gilt embossed to gaudy look,
Bound in calf or bound in cloth,
Shod perhaps with some of both,
Named or titled TO appear
Very grand as well rs dear
Such as care for outward show
Wear rich garments as they go.
But to others little matters
uaspings loose and cloth in tatters.
Still with men rs tits with books
Tidy covers help their looks.
Much man is like book
Glanced AT, read, then shelved or shook
What a course! Once throned in state,
Now dethroned and out of date:
Shabby now what once was grand.
Battered, bent and secondhand
Man and book alike are strange
Till within the readers range;
Till are pierced the binding boards
Ne'er are shown the secret hoards
Shown, we take or let alone;
Thus ii is our choice is known.
Smirched perhaps and all unclean,
Pages of the heart are seen;
Or perhaps they're clean and pure,
Filled with "David's mercies sure"
If my heart be like a book
Only print that's pure I'll brook.

DIR. John Erskine, II well known Scottish
divine, was remarkable for his simplicity
of manner and gentle temper,
He returned so often from the pulpit
minus his pocket handkerchief that Mrs,
Erskine at last began to suspect that the
handkerchiefs were stolen by some of the
old women who lined the pulpit stairs. So
both to balk and detect the culprit she
sewed corner of the handkerchief to one
of the pockets of his coattails.
Half way up the stairs the good doctor
felt tug, whereupon he turned round and
caught hold of the hand of the guilty old
woman, saying, with great tenderness and
simplicity;
NO the day, honest woman; no. the
day. Mrs. Erskine has sewed it in."--
