A BRAVE WOMAN.


New She Rescued Her Husband From the
Vengeance of q Puma.
Jabez English, sheep herder Of this
ncighborhood, was engaged in building
a cabin home, his former one having
been destroyed by fire a week or two
ago, and was busily at work on its roof
when he saw an animal steal ont of the
woods lard by and fling itself upon the
pail containing his dinner of cold boiled
bacon and bread.
He recognized this animal as puma,
brighten it away threw his plane at it.
The tool struck the animal on the head,
cutting It badly and rendering the crea-
ture furious. 1t rushed ut the structure
on the peak of which the herder sat and
tried to leap up to him. But this was
not to be done. and after several at
ternpts the lion abandoned it and pro-
cceded to patrol the spot. growing furi-
ously and showing its teeth.
The man. having no weapon and being
cutof reach of any one to whom he might
call, could only sit still and wait for the
puma to become tired of the watch or
for deliverance. Night at last came on.
and still he did not dare venture to quit
his perch, though it was so cold that he
feared that he would freeze before morn
ing. In the meantime his wife. Who was
in Santa Anna, a little mountain hamlet
of the valley, grew uneasy about him,
and with lantern started 10 look for
him. It was too dark for English TO see
her, but the lion did, and made for her
with q scream of rage.
As the grea: beast came leaping at her
out of the darkness she dashed the Ian
tern full in It's face. The puma, startled,
gave way, and English, guessing who the
newcomer was, shouted TO her TO run
back to the village. She turned TO 90 so.
but the puma was after her. and she was
obliged 10 wheel about every few feet
and shake the lantern in its face again.
The animal would recoil at this, and each
time gave her a few moments to run on.
In this way she made her way to Santa
Anna, screaming rs she neared it, a
lion! q lion.' until some of the men OF
the village, hearing her. armed them
selves and came out in time 10 see the
lion breal, away to run Sack. They pur-
sued him and killed him and then went
on for the half frozen herdsr. His wife,
a bright eyed. chatty little Mexican wom-
an, claimed the skin of the puma, saying
that it was rightly hers. as she alone had
brought the lion into the village, and it
was presented to her for tine new home
in the valley.-Tonbstone "a. T. Special.

eff they succeed in recovering the
bodies Of Instructor Merriam and Miss
Teargin from the depths of Cayuga lake
by means of electricity. as see they in
tend to try TO do, sand gentleman who
grew up on the shores of Cayuga lake,
lit will be the first time in the history
of the lake that the body of any person
drowned in its waters was e!er seen
again. I always had liking for geolog-
ical research and INDUCED it for many
years in investigating the bottom Of Cay
uga lake.
My experiments satisfied me that the
bottom of the lake is a series of large
openings and cavities, many of them
craterlikc. SONG of these are 100 feet in
diameter. Thest craters. as I believe
them to be, lie at different depths, o.,
rather, their raised edges are of different
heights. Their depths are fathornless.
They have undoubtedly become the re-
ceptacles OF the bodies OF the hundreds
of people who are known to have been
drowned in the lake since that country
was settled AID of the undoubted thou
sands of people killed in the fierce bat
ties that were frequently waged on the
shores OF the lake between hostile tribes
Of aboriginal warriors during the CEN
turies preceding the coming # the white
man.
1T was in Cayuga lake that the fen6-
ish murderer Ruloff lowered the bodies
OF his wife ard child, 30 years ago, after
he had murdered them. The bodies We're
inclosed in a chest. as he confessed be-
fore he was hanged at Binghalnton for
another murder. The weeks that were
spent in dragging the lake for this chest
were simply wasted, for it was sunk into
the mouth of one of those botto.sllesS
openings. and. if i: IS rot sinking yet, is
still floating about II those mysterious
depths.
within half Il century more than 100
persons have been drowned i'll Cayugss
Lake, to recover the bodies of whom the
graphing iron aad drag We're used in-
dUstriously. but in vain. II it We're pos
