part of the afternoon.
And this brings one to the ornamental.
This consists in the passing and serving of
light refreshments. All the afternoon the
servants have been busy dressing small
tables in the side room, or kitchen. At the
close of the first game these are quickly
brought in and the hostess for the afternoon
stands behind the tea kettle and pours tea.
The other ladies gather around her, while
the gentlemen pick up the plates OF tea

of salad and pass them. The servants re-
plenish the dishes.
The part which the Turk loves is the
distribution of the prizes. These all the
afternoon have reposed upon small carved
table. There are bonbon dishes, chatelaine
ornaments and hatpins and all sorts of
trifles, to the jewelled bOwling-pin, which
is given to the lady who wins first prize or

PANTHER UNDER HER BED.
Husha nd g Subsequent Scrap With the
Brute in the Darkness.

San Francisco Chronicle.
W. W. Smith, who resides In the mount
aims about seven miles north of Ukiah,
Cal, arrived in town yesterday with the
skin of two large panthers which he killed
near his home Saturday evening last. He
also exhibited a suit of clothes which he
had worn at the time Of the killing. They
were torn to shreds and bore evidence of
the truth of the story which he told regard
ing the difficulty he had In winning the
trophies.
Mr. Smith left his home early Monday
morning for the purpose of visiting this
city. He requested his wife to go over to
an adjoining ranch owned by j. W. Fitz-
simmons and remain there until he called
for her on his way back. Mrs. Smith was
Just putting on her bonnet when she was
Mortified to observe the head of an enor-
nous panther through the open door. She
spraug toward the window, hoping to es-
cape. "A her first movement the panther
sprang In at the door and rushed under the
bed. Mrs. Smith then ran through the
door and reached her neighbor's house
thoroughly exhausted.
Her husband arrived later, and accom-
panied by Ftzsinlmons, left for his lhoms
toeither kill or scare away the panther. Fitz-
simmons took a shotgun and Smith was
armed with butcher knife and carried
lantern. Reaching the house, Smith stepped
inside, when the panther, which had been
feeding on the remains OF a deer, sprang
at his throat, bearing him to the ground and
breaking the lantern.
Smith finally succeeded In gaining his
feet and called on FitzsImmons for help,
but the latter was able to see only the dim
outlines of man and beast, and was there
fore, powerless spectator of the struggle.
Smith piled his knife and finally sue
ceeded In administering . fatal wound.
The panther released his hold, and after a
few convulsive struggles. lay still on the
floor. Smith, though scratched and lacer'
ated, was not seriously Injured.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith remained all night
at the Fitzsimmons ranch, and returned
to their home Sunday morning. On their
arrival at the house they encountered
another panther, the female, which was
soon t<eed by'Fitzsinmons' dogs and killed.

WISDOM IN FORT NONSENSE.
Washington Raised 1t to Conquer His
Mems RebelIiousness.
New YOrk Press.

N
Morrlstown, n. Y, Nov. 30.-Upon q
steep hill overlooking the city Of 81 orris-
town stands historic Fort Nonsense. Strange
to say the fort and its history are seldom
mentioned, except in this city and the
immediate neighborhood. Copious histories
are silent about ii, and in current stories
1t seldom is given word.
In the winter of 1779-s0 George Wash
fugton and his staff quartered at the Ford
mansion. in this city, now famous as WASH
iugton's headquarters, and the troops Win
tered in Loantaka Valley. The winter was
a hard one for the men; they were not SUI
f!ciently clad nor fed, and the year behind
them had been unsatisfactory. Many VINO
had given up homes of comfort Tor the
army life felt disheartened when they
thought of the months of moroton-
Gus drill. sparse rauons, and scanty cloth
ing.
After time these men, becoming dissatis-
fled, became mutinous. Washington, hear
ing OF this, sent an order from head
Quarters for the hill south west OF the viii
laga to be fortified The Elen toiled day
after day, expecting an attack by the
British They did not learn of this ruse
until the fort was completed. In Revolu-
tionary annals there Is No record OF battle
in Morristuwn in the winter OF l779-SO.
History tells us that Washington and his
men wintered here and bliIt Fort Nonsense,
which name was given to 1t by the soldiers
when they learned that it was meant only
to help conquer their rebelious spirits.
This famous earthwurk is now but a
name. Visitors whu come to MorrtStown
for the purpose of seeing the fort and head
quarters are numerous. In 1S74 i the Wash
ington Association of New Jersey was
formed and mainly through its efforts, the
old Ford Mansion became the interesting
place it now is. The association tried TO
make the old mansion an enduring Revolu-
tionary mnnument. But it was not until q
decade later that it turned its attention
to the site uf Fort Nonsense.
One day in the spring OF 1883 the MEM
bers OF the Washington Association, the
uniformed organizations of the city, and the
children of the public schools, formed in
line and wound their way past the park,
as the old village green is now designated,
up the steep hill to the southwest. until they
came to stone, bearing upon Its face this
inscription:

But Antonio gave not thanks till his

Thus they stood facing the line of

Of a great mans memory, has wrought
the embroidery Of its fancy on the
plain robe OF fact. Yet, amid all that
is of uncertain knowledge, and so
WUst rest, this much at least should
BE known and remembered, for the
honor of a noble family, how it fell
out that Count Antonio, a man of high
lineage, forsook the service Of the
prince, disdained the obligation of his

seemed indeed in his own eyes to be
