The manner in which animals
and birds endure pain should awaken
the sympathy of all thinking peo-
pie. Horses in battle furnish a
striking example of the power of
endurance. After the first sting
ing pain is felt they make no sound.
but bear it with mute, wondering
endurance, and when. in the si-
lence OF the night, a groan comes
from the battlefield il is because of
loneliness-the craving of human
companionship,, which is so neces-
sary to once domesticated animals.
A dog win go for days with
broken leg without complaint, but
the pleading wistful look would at
tract attention from anyone not
totally blind to all sensibility.
A cat, wounded by stick or stone,
or caught in some trap from which
it has either gnawed or pulled itself
away, will crawl to some quiet out
of-the-way place and endure silent
agony which We could not endure.
Cattle will meet the thrust of the
butchers knife without sound.
The wild dove. with shot from
the hunters gun burning in its
tender flesh, will fly to some high
bough or lay upon the ground and
die, and no sound will be heard save
the dripping OF blood upon the
leaves.
The stricken deer will speed to
some thick wood, and there in pitt
full submission await the end.
The eagle, stricken in high air,
will struggle to the last, but there
will be no sound of pain, and the
proud defiant look will not leave the
eyes until the lids close over them
and shut out the sunlight they loved
so well.-NeW York Herald.

A BIG WoMAN.-Sallie McAllis-
ter, colored woman, died recently
at her home in Springfield. She
was, doubtless, the largest woman
in the world, and in early woman
hood soon "out-grew" the position
of cook. A Snowman, WHO had an
eye for moneymaking business,
hearing Of her avoirdupois, made an
engagement with "Fat Sallie." and
together they Travelled from land to
land. He dressed her well in fact,
did everything for her comfort and
enjoyment, except to divide profits.
At one time Sallie weighed $50
pounds. She was conveyed from
depot to depot while on her tours
in an arm chair of large dimensions
which was placed in a wagon, and
as she was entirely too large to get
through the door of any passenger
car, she was taken through the
sliding doors of the baggage car,
and rode there i'll her own armchair.
She was kind, amiable and good
woman. The coffin in which she
was buried could not be got into
the body of big two-horse farm
wagon.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

4 BRIDGE BUILT THE DEyI

a BRIDGE BUILT BY THE DEVIL.
Aberystwith, on the west
coast of Wales, where the Monk
River flows through black, yawn-
ing abyss, there is single-arch
bridge of unknown antiquity. The
popular legend says that it was
built by the devil, and far and near
it is known as The Bridge of Dev.
lis or The Bridge of the Evil Man.
British antiquarians are united i'm
the belief that it was built by the
early monks, but that fact does not
affect the popular legend in the
least, 'Old Harry's' part in its erec-
ton being never questioned by the
inhabitants of Cardinganshire.
Grose says that 'the bridge is an
honor to the hand that built it.
whether that hand be Satan's or
that of some monk.'-Republic.

THE DANCE AT LAMPAsAS.
A STORY Or THE RIDE OF sHELBYs
MEN 70 MEXICO.

The stories Major John n. Ed
wards has told of the romantic ride
of Shelby and his !, 900 Missourians
into Mexico have stood the test of
contemporary criticism in all essen
tial details, but though they are
likely 10 have a hundred readers
three centuries from now where they
have one now, few will believe them,
and it is possible that by that time
Shelby will be as unreal as Robin
Hood, if, indeed, he has not become
a sun myth. For certainly no man
who ever wrote history was ever
more gifted with the ability to give
fact the appearance of romantic
fiction than was Major Edwards,
the historiographer of Shelby's bri-
gade.
Perhaps General Shelby was ro-
mantle something over a quarter of
a century ago, as he is not now, but
it is certain that there were figures
in the Civil War who, though far
more romantic than he, have been
already Ingulfed in oblivion for
want of "sacra Yates" which
means, being interpreted, for lack
of o John n. Edwards as an adiu-
taat.

A SLIGHT MIsTAKE.-Singers in
a church and elsewhere are not al
ways as careful as they ought to be
to articulate their words distinctly.
A little girl entered the meeting
house not long ago just as the choir
was singing the anthem.
"Hallelujah! Hatielujah." said
the singers; but the little girl, whose
thoughts were somewhat preoccu-
pied we may imagine. did not catch
the words correctly. After getting
home she startled her aunt by say
ing:
Il never saw such a nice choir.
They stopped right in the middle of
the anthem and spoke to me-
why, my dear said her aunt,
Il didn't notice it,
But they did. You know wore
my new cloak, and as soon as
come in the choir said, Hardly
krew you! Hardly knew youv two
