appreciatiye hunter was none the
less disposed TO admire that his head
was elsewhere.
The cap was Immediately dropped,
and the Indian, supposing the en-
envy slain, and that nothingremained
but TO take his scalp, and, unsheath-
ing his knife, approached without
the slightest precaution the tree be-
hind which he believed the body lay.
The willy pioneer waited patient
ly till the savage was within a few
yards, when, springing quickly from
his concealment, he shot him
through the heart. The Indian
fell motionless, and finding, by a
hasty inspection of the bodies, that
both his late antagonists were dead,
Lockhart, with a forbearance by no
means common to his class, waived
his right to their scalps and turned
his attention to the horse and his
burden-one dead buck, in his eyes,
being Of vastly more consequence
than two dead Indians. He had no
difficulty IN finding the object of
his search. At little distance,
among the bushes, Dobbin stood
nibbling some branches, his equa-
nimity apparently not in the least
disturbed by the exciting scene
which he had just witnessed, had
he felt the slightest interest at
what was going on.
1t was considerably after dark
when Lockhart reached the stock
ade and carried the fruits of his
days labor to the cabin of his sick
friend, who no doubt relished the
coveted delicacy none the less when
seasoned with a narrative of the
huntsman's adventure.

The ex-Empress Eugene has settled
down into the solitude which best ena-
bles her to endure her memorable and
cumulative sorrows. Her tall, sad fig
ure goes in and out among us with only
the recognition of silent sympathy. The
empress likes to have communication
with as few people as possible. For
instance, when she shops-she does her
own shopping likes to be waited
on by the same salesman always. l
was witness of an incident of this sort
the other day. The empress walked
into a we'll known west end shop and
asked for Mr.. --, naming one of the
head men. She was told he was out,
whereupon she remarked that she would
call again and went away. was told
that she certainly would come again;
that Mr.. -- always waited on her,
and that she would not be served by
any one else.-London Western Mail.

A MOMENT OF SUPREME PERIL.
How Courage and Presence of Mind Saved
Hundreds of Lives.


How Courage and Presence of Mind Saved
Hundreds of Lives.
There are still persons living i Lon
don who can recall the magnificent Chi
nese museum collected by Mr.. Nathan
Dunn, a munifcent merchant of Phila-
delphia and Hong Kong, which was
first located in Philadelphia, and then
brought to London in the early years
of the queen s reign. 1t was intended
as a donation to the public, but was I'M
fortunately burned. The building first
erected-now the site of the Philadel-
phia Continental hotel-for this display
of the treasures of the then sealed king
dom had an upper room which was
about 80 feet high and very long and
narrow. In the center part of this inn
mense auditorium were collected one
evening about 5000 persons At near
8 O'Clock the manager of the building
came to the leader of the meeting. white
with alright, and told him that the
floor had sunk nearly foot, and that
in few minutes more the tennents Of
the joi might be out of their sockets.
The floor would then fall through on to
the Chinese museum, and the walls, go
feet in height, would collapse and be
precipitated, with the roof, upon the as
sembly.
This might have caused the death Of
those present-the foremost people in
Philadelphia The leader explained to
the person whom the audience expected
next to hear that by addressing the as
sembly from the end of the hall he could
withdraw the company from the sunken
part of the floor to that where the front
walls strengthened the joists to bear the
weight of the people. The reply to this
was that his family was in the audience,
and that he must get them out first.
''You shall not, said the leader; "a
hint of danger-a rush-and we shall
all be under the fallen walls and roof.
Five minutes delay may kill us alto
gether.
As boy in the audience, l well re-
member my surprise at seeing the lead

the room and tell the people that they

were entertained, partly by an i'm
promptu sentimental song in a voice
without quaver, in the very face of
death, and as soon as practicable they
were quietly dismissed. Not single
individual in that great assembly was
aware that, by the presence of mind of
one man. an awful catastrophe had been
averted. Three thousand persons We're
saved from being buried under two
side walls 60 feet high, pressed down by
a heavy roof.
The imagination sickens at the
thought of what would have beenthecon-

Tho Slate Trade.

The slate quarrying industry is one OF
those that are feeling the dire effects OF
the free trade object lesson. States are
produced in dozen different states, but
chiefly in Pennsylvania, Vermont,
Maine, Maryland, New York, Virginia,
Georgia and New Jersey.
There are 2O6 different quarries, the
output of which is rs per cent roofing
slate. The present tariff on roofing slate
is 25 per cent ad valorem, but the Will
son tariff proposes to reduce this to 10
per cent, a loss of 15 per cent to those in
terested in this industry.
There are over 10000, 900 invested in
the slate trade, and there are over 5000
workers, who receive 81, $50, 900 annually
in wages. A reduction of 10 per cent
in the tariff means loss of $685., 900 in
their annual earnings, if indeed it does
not mean the entire closing of the Amer
lean quarries in favor of the Welsh states
that will be able to come over as ballast,
paying no freight, to swamp our mar
kets.
On other than roofing states it is pro
posed to reduce the duty 10 per cent, but
that part of the American industry
which is the largest is to receive the
greatest injury, in full accord with the
policy Of destruction of the present ad-
ministration. Economist.
