he placed my unfortunate aunt, and
then stood and calmly surveyed her.
Take me down! Let me go" she
shrieked.

with great GOODNESS.
"Oh! aunt. do say yes" I ~implored;
but at this our prosecutor turned upon
me. will you have the goodness not
to interfere?" he said, 20 fiercely that
I wa terrified, and shrank back.
For about ten minutes Aunt Maria
sat on that wall and raved. Then she
burst into tears At this juncture l
perceived q man figure in the distance.
Was he coming this way? Oh, joy! he
was. As he drew nearer, ! saw to my

"You rascal" cried Dick. "Stand
back, and let me take that lady off the

~lunatic. flercely.
Dick took him by the coat collar, and
flung him aside with such force that he
stumbled and fell. The next instant
Dick had lifted Aunt Maria safely to
the ground. lie had scarcely lone so
when the mailman leaped upon him,
and a terrific struggle followed. sud-
denly, I saw the lunatic place his hand
in the breast of his coat, and the next
instant there was a fash of steel. He
had drawn a knife.
"Oh, Dick.-oh. my darling" ]
screamed; The will kill you!"

mer four deer made merry on the
banks of the Vest Canada creek oppo-
site the village of Northwood, N. Y.
The residents are truer sportsmen than
are usually found in the Adirondack
wilderness, and their respect for the
game laws caused them to leave the
deer in peace. As n result the latter
became very bold, and were frequent
ly seen along the banks of the stream.
The deer seaso opened on August IL,
and an the night of the 14th soIne Of
the hunters made preparations to cap
ture those deer. They began their
hunt Immediately after midnight and
continued it until after sunrise, but
without result. Since then several
parties have searched in vain for the
deer, and now the hunters believe that
they have gone back into the heart Of
the woods, and arc wondering how the
animals learned that the season had
opened.

He Had to Top Dress His Old Woman,
Grave Somehow.
We were about seventy miles to the
northeast of Santa Fe when we met a
man driving a span of mules attached
to a light wagon. He was a rough
looking chap, and his mules had been
hard pushed, but he halted as he
reached the head of the train, and il
we had entertained any suspicious they
were soon dispeled by his statement
He got down and pulled a tombstone
out 5f the back end of the wagon and
said:
You passed my cabin back thar at
Blue Jay creek, about seven milcs from
here. Bin Twin thar with the old
woman fur the last ten years She died
about two weeks ago"
And what about this tombstone?"
"Waal, / wanted one fur her grave,
and | went up to Santa Fe TO look
around. Got this one of a chap for three
dollars"
But, man, this won't answer for
your wife's grave. The inscription
reads: Sacred to the memory of jim
Whalen, who was shot December IA,
1869, by Jack Henry"
"Does it read that way?"
"Of course. Can't you read?"
Not a line"
whoever sold you this stone took
advantage of you, and ought to be pun
ished."
"Waal, now, TO be honest about it."
said the man, as he returned the stone
TO the wagon, nobody didn't sell
1t TO me. I stole it out of the
graveyard myself. 1t was a likely
1ookin' stun. and so l loaded her up and
put the mules on the run. I felt as if
the old woman orter TO have sunthin'
to mark her grave, and wasn't able
to come down with the cash"
"And what will you do with it?"
Take her home and set her up.
She's got to go. can't afford to lose
three days time over this job. Idon't
beer so much about names and dates
and pertlcklers, but I'm after sunthin'

Holidays are c~uriously abused by
some busy men, especially lawyers,
young and old. Many lawyers spend
six or eight hours of every holiday in
undisturbcd work at their offices, where
on such days they are safe from the in
trusion alike of clients and friends
Others crowd the library Of the Bar
association, and still others work quiet
ly at their cases in club libraries or in
the privacy of their own homes With
these men and many others holidays
are esteemed chiefly valuable as offer
ing an opportunity of clearing up ar
rears of work.
