On Saturday evening two boys were
taking an airing in u homemade buck
board drawn by two strapping big
dogs, Everything went comfortably
until they reached the corner OF Main
and Ninth streets. At that point the
Viglant engine passed on the way back
from tho Hobbs glass house fire, 1t
may be that the appearance Of the en-
gince excited the dogs. They became
involved in n discussion, and in the
heat OF debate fell foul OF each other,
In an instant the wagon was over
turned and there was a confused mass
OF blackboard, harness, dogs and boys.
The animals had their teeth well fas-
tened in each other. The boys tried TO
pull them apart. A passing driver lash.
ed them with heavy whip and they
were beaten with sticks, and still the
teeth held fast. Finally they were
pulled and beaten until they let 40,
apparently from exhaustion, but nei-

savage battle that would have filled

At any rate, il was serious fix. Tbs

away from the wagon and started OF.
They ran to the edge Of the circle Of

Nearer and nearer the turtles came,

into the wagon to keep out OF their
way. The turtles crowded around the
wagon, and the wagon was the only
place of refuge. Mike thought the
turtles might move on, and did all he
| could to frighteu them by shooting at
them. It was almost dark. as the ire
had been burning low. and as Mike
could not aim none of the bullets took
effect on the turtles backs. They soon
began climbing over one another in
their efforts to get at the men. At last
there was such a number all around
that the wagon commenced to move
and was forced to one side until the
hind wheels were broken. There was
no hope of escape except to do as the
horses had done, and The chances were
very slim. But they had to do 1t, and
started as soon as the wagon broke.
Jack landed sqnarely on turtles
back. but Mike slipped in between two
of them. and it was several moments
before he was ready to start Then
they jumped from one turtle to another
for some time, and it seemed to
the men as if they covered the earth.
But they kept on and knew that unless
they fell they.were.safc.

Where Our Perfumes Come From.

Most of our perfumes come from
flowers or are made in imitation of the
scents of flowers, so altar of roses, by
q common consent ranks at the head
of the list OF perfumes. Other prepar-
ations from roses, too, hold a high
place and have long been esteemed.
Rosewater is historic. When Saladin
entered Jerusalem in the twelfth
century, he had the walls of the
Mosque of Omar washed with it. But
altar or oil of roses is by far the most
precious and most priced of all. An
eastern prince will present to an
honceed guest rich jewels, rubies and
diamonds, and then add as the rarest

priceless essence.

chance to climb on q large rock out Of
reach of the creatures.
Here they had chance to look
around, and saw that the sky was over
cast with clouds and that they were
safe unless tho turtles stayed around
until they were starved.
But there was little water in the
bottom of the canyon, and down the
turtles tumbled as fast as they could,
appearing to have forgotten all about
their possible victims. Most of them
had reached the bottom, but not before
a rainstorm came up, and as Mike and
Jack We're still unable to leave their
place on the rock they were drenched
to the skin. But that was good deal
better than being eaten by turtles.
And, as they sat for an hour watch
ing the turtles pass them on the way
to the bottom of the canyon, the rain

After the last turtle had passed they
were compelled to sit there where they
were for some time to allow the storm
to abate a little. They put in their
time watching the turtles rolling over
one another in the pools at the bottom
of the canyon.
Suddenly there was roar like cy-
clone tearing through forest, and,
looking up, the two men saw wall Of
water several feet high tumbling over
the powders.
It was cloudburst that had caused a
freshet, and it was all tumbling on top
of the turtles. 1t passed over the
turtles like a Niagara and in moment
they were all being churned like chips
Their shells were cracked and broken
and they rolled over in the widest con-
fusion.
But it only lasted moment, and
then the water rolled them down the
canyon out OF sight of the two men on
the rock.
By this time The rain had ceased and
