Jules Carlo of Juneau, Alaska, is one
of the few men who are able to tell
how it feels to be buried alive, from ex-
perience. He was living at the time at
New Westminster, B. c.. One morning
he had gone into q restaurant and order
ed his breakfast when all of sudden
he fell dead. At least that is what the
doctors said of him, though he was con-
scious of what was passing around him
all the time He was laid out for bur-
ial, and his friends kept the usual vigil
over him. He was put into the coffin
and borne to the cemetery, all the time
realizing the terrible fate that was about
to overtake him, but unable by word or
sign TO do anything to prevent it. He
was lowered into the grave, but happi-
ly, as the first clod ratified on his coffin,
he began to feel the blood pulsating at
his heart, and his powers returned to
him. He found that he could move his
hands and began to hammer OH the cof-
fin lid and call for help. The startled
pallbearers stopped shoveling dirt into
the grave, while the majority of those
gathered at the grave fled away as for
their lives. He called again, and one
courageous friend jumped into the
grave, and, unfastening the coffin lid,
earle was taken out feeling as well as
he ever did in his life.-New Orleans

Naval Orders.

At Fort Monroe some time ago, where
one of the vessels of the navy was tenn
porarily awaiting orders, a delegation
of army officers stationed at the fort
came aboard. There is a set naval regu-
lation that nothing can be so on board
ship until the commanding officer orders
it. While the army party were looking
over the ship IL o'clock arrived. A
Junior officer approached the captain
and said, with salute, 1T is 10
o'clock, sir" Make it so, =" responded
the captain, and eight bells were struck.
The army officers suspected that the
navy men wanted to ask them questions
and get sold, or that this was a bit of
foolery got up to joke the land warriors.
Some time after party of the army
officers invited the officers of the war
ship to dine with them. The dinner was
progressing when lieutenant entered,
and saluting the senior officer present.
said gravely, Colonel, the majors

sponded the colonel, with the greatest
gravity, and the dinner proceeded.
Nothing was said at the time, but the
navy officers tell the story. Fran

old hunter and trapper, who was wiped
out at the Fort Kearney massacre.
Correct; and they've got fort named
after him somewhar' out here. Bridger
and me was pards fur many years. We
was in this Black Hills country together
upward of twenty years ago. I've been
wanting to get back thar fur these last
five years."
''Did you and Bridger find any gold
there?' asked Harkins.
'.That's what I'm comm to. I didn't,
but he did. We went thar to hunt, bein
satisfied if we got enough skins and pelts
to keep us in powder and ball. One day
when a war party made dash at us we
got separated. I took to the timber and
Bridger hid in cave in canyon. Il
was three days before we cum together

save our scalps. It was on the way home
that Bridger told me what he found in

Two years before this story opens

Two years before this story opens
Harkins had come out from England to
better his fortunes He was English,
bred and born, a resident of Leaning
ton, and his wife had died the year be-
fore. Though a widower, he was not
childless. The woman in the wagon
train was mis- daughter, Bess. A wo-
man? No, girl of eighteen-a typical
English girl of the middle class. The
father had tried ranching and failed,
and had put his last dollar into the out
fit Of the gold hunting party. Should
Bess be left behind among strangers in
strange land, or taken on an expedi-
ton which had its peril for every hour?
care you crazy?' queried the gold
hunters, when Harkins asked them to
decide.
But when the train was ready to move
out of Brule City, and the men saw the
red checked English lassie seated beside
young Joe Blyn, who was to drive the
Harkins wagon while the owner rode
horseback, they lifted their hats as they
rode past. And when they saw how
brave she tried to look and act, and I'M
derstood that she was willing to brave
all perils for the affections she bore
her father, they said to one another:
''There's a girl to be proud of. Let's
give the Englishman fair show"
And no queen could have asked for or
been shown greater respect. She it was

CHAPTER I.
s'Halti"


It is ten O'clock in the forenoon of q
June day. Ten white topped wagons,
drawn by as many spans Of heavy horses,
are strung out in line on the plains of
Northern Dakota, while fifteen horse
m5n are distributed its length to act as
guards. There is a driver to each
wagon, and you can thus count twenty
five souls. twenty-five? All! but sharp
eyes detect the futtering Of a woman's
dress on the seat of one of the wagons.
Twenty-six, then, with their faces
sternly set to the west, each man heavi-
~ armed and every eye scanning the
country ahead and about for signs Of
danger.
Who ara
The gal...l.s {cGster has made his re-
port Of gold in the Black Hills, and
fifty thousand seekers after wealth are
moving to the west. The country is
still in the hands of the savages, and in
furiated at the thought of being overrun
and pushed to the wall, as has been the
case over and over again, every man
who can bear arms is on the warpath to
drive back the invaders.
TIL party has come out from Brule
river for more than two hundred miles,
and left it to strike northwest for the
forks Of the Big Cheyenne two days be-
fore we found them. For the last three
days Indian signs have been plenty.
They have entered upon the territory of
the hostiles, and every mile of their
progress will now be watched by keen
eyes.
Halt! Is there danger ahead?"
The wagons close up rapidly, as the
drivers have been drilled to do, and in
ten minutes everything is prepared for
whatever may happen.
Here, Harkins-here, Taylori' calls
the leader to two Of the mounted men,
and as they ride forward he continues:
THE old man is going to turn up his
toes. and I've called halt to let him die
in peace He's been asking for both of
you"
Who was the old man? He had joined
the party at the last moment, coming
from no one cared where. He was an
old hunter and trapper, and had been in
the Black Hills country. He could guide
the party by the best and most direct
route, and he had the money to outfit
LID 4S8AI1O c0o
and his queer speech and actions made
the crowd look upon him as weak in the
head. He had been taken very i'll the
day before, and both Harkins and Tay-
lor had shown him many acts of kind
ness. No one expected his death, and
the announcement that his hour had
come created much surprise. However,
after each had spoken his mind about it,
the majority of the men threw them
selves down on the grass to smoke or
chat, and more than one impatiently
estimated the distance lost by this delay.
Harkins and Taylor dismounted and
climbed into the wagon where the old
man lay. A few hours had wrought
great change in him, and it was plain
enough that his time had come.
Look a-here, men," began the old
man as the pair expressed their sorrow
for him, this has come a leetle sooner
than looked fur, but I'm not goin to
complain. Fur forty years the Lord has
let me live to roam these yere plains and
dwell in the mountains, and my race is
run. | hain't got no word of complaint"

And now, as the wagon train makes
its slow way over the broken country,
let us see with whom we have to do.
