Saved by His Horses Fright.

When the hunter is hunted there is
more excitement than fun. A traveller
in southeastern Africa, while hunting
buffalo, suddenly came upon an en-
ragged female elephant, which immedi-
ately charged him. The horse had no
show on the rocky ground, so the man
dismounted and ran for shelter. As
he gained a secure place, he turned
and saw the horse with his head up
and fore-feet planted firmly in the
ground, as if carved from stone, while
the elephant was smelling about with
her trunk. The horse acted as il par
alyzed with fright, and stood thus for
fully five minutes. Then he gave .
sudden jump, ran to rocky ledge if
ty feet away, and again stood still.
The elephant looked much puzzled at
this action, and tapped her ears medi-
tatively. Then she raised her head
and began to trumpet at furious
rate. This was tho chance the hunter
had been waiting for, and he fired.
She stopped screaming, ran swiftly Q
hundred yards and dropped dead

rNE LAST PEsslMIsr.

There was once queer little wizened man.
With burning and baleful eye,
Whose heart was sore with the hate ~ heSd
For the Tights that blaze on high
Aad when at evening the sun went down.
And the planets in glory shone,
he would dance about In frenzied way
Andtnutter and curse and groan-
One night when his soul was fery hiAa
OF hatred and discomfort,
He put out star that winked 81 him
His passion had found O vent
And night after night, as time went BY
The hour OF his rapture came;
And star after star was turned as black
AS the Goals that follow flame
Then darker and darker grew the sky,
And madden the weird mans mood,
He swallowed the glories that passed away
As o hungry imp his food
Some nights his horrible fantasy
Would ruin a thousand starss
Where once had glittered tho gems OF light
CAPPED nothing but bald, black scars
And ever and ever, as time went by,
His hunger for gloom increased;
He wiped the dipper from on the sky
That night he had had feast
Then onoe when his soul was unsatisned,
And he hated the thought Of day,
This mAdoap man In his misery
Made ink OF the milky way
And still the sun and the moon Game vn
Though dim at the ends Of space,
While he smore the universe should moi bear
One smile upon it's face
And ever his power increased and grow
Till the moon became his prey,
And with one fell swoop he swsmped the sun
And ended the final day,
And all men died, save the little fiend,
Who groveled In sore alright;
Then he too, persisted. and dying oriedI
