The sodden antelope hounced about,

"Confound you, Mac" cried Oliver.
"If you are bored, what must be? Do

The more uncomfortable Oliver be-
came, the more he thought of his guest
snugly ensconced in his hunting cabin
miles away on the Troublesome-an
nntrustworthy little stream that
meandered through the mountain
park, irrigating the crops bountifully
in the spring, but often annihilating
them in midsummer.

hearth, smoking my tobacco, ordering
my servant about, and he would leave

stopped, and he was close to shut
gate. He dismounted. opened it, and,
mindful of cattle, closed it after him.
After short walk he saw the dark
outlines of buildings, house with
corrals and barns: from the last came
the savage barking OF dogs and the
clank of their stretching chains as they
leaned from their kennels. Mac, in
duty bound, set up challenging up
roar, silenced only by his masters
whip. From the lighted windows
Craig saw the house proper was built
of logs and raised considerably from
the ground, with wide veranda ap-
preached by long flight of steps. A
door in the L that was on n level with
the ground suddenly opened and n man
came out with a lantern-an under

sunlsen black eyes, and scrubby beard

his sombrero a stream of water dripped
down his back, and the damp carcass
of q defunct antelope swung to his sad
die became painfully odoriferous. That
very antelope had lured him to the top
of Sisty's peak and had taken revenge
for the fine shot which had brought
its demise.
Craig, naturally hot-tempered and
impatient, swore audibly He won

hunting in the Rockies; why, if he lid,
he could not tell when it was going to

enough to go to the top of peak, he
could not find his way down? He had
no idea where he was, and night was
near at hand; under the aspens, that
slapped him mcrrily with wet branches
as he passed, it was already dark.
He wondered where DR.. John

the matter; he was extensively personal

A Philadelphia-Savann Steamer Meets
with Misfortune i'll Delaware Bay.
Philadelphia Record, Monday.
While attempting to run to sea at night,
the Ocean line passenger and freight
steamship City of Macon, from Philadol-
phia for Savannah, struck on Bulkhead
shoal Delaware bay, early yesterday
morning and will have to discharge part
of her cargo into lighters before she can
be iloaled. Four tugs saw her predlca-
mGnt at daylight and hastened to her
rescue, but, despite their combined power
and after swapping several heavy hawsers,
gave mp the task until the next tide, when
their efforts were again futile Then the
effort to float the big boat was abandoned.
The strong westerly wind has reduced
the mean tides in the river and bay at
least feet, so that at the maximum flood
tide the City of Macon requires ut least i
feet more water to float her. Consequently
sufficient cargo must be removed to give
the steamer the required buoyancy, and
lighters were sent to the vessel yesterday
in tow of the tugs 5. McCaulley aud
Bradley TO receive a portion of the cargo.
The City of Macon struck on the lower
end of Fort Delaware early on Saturday
morning last, while bound from Boston to
Philadelphia, and had to be pulled off by
Two tugs, and the second accident was neaI
the same spot. The City of Macon was
built at Chester in 1877 by the late John
Roach, and is in every way iirst-class
vessel.

YOKOHAMA, JAPAN, Jan. GA dispatch
received here from General Nodzu gives
details of the fighting which occurred be-
tween the japanese and Chinese troops at
Hai-Cheng on January 22d.
lie says that the japanese waited until
the Chinese were within 800 yards of their
position and then n large portion of the
Fifth Infantry brigade with a battalion of
the Nineteenth Infantry supported by
three batteries of artillery, charged the
Chinese left flank.
The enemy, taken by surprise, fed in
confusion towards the northeast and New
Chang. The Chinese prisoners who were
captured state that the Chinese attack was
conducted by Generals Chang Shung and
Eku Tang. Tue Chinese numbered 10000
men,
MADE BUT LITTLE RESISTANCE.
Official dispatches which have been re-
ceived here from Nung Chang Ken state
that the second batch of japanese trans
ports completed the landing of the troops
by noon on january 22d. The enemy
made but little resistance.
These dispatches add that during the
afternoon of january DIST heavy firing
was heard in the direction of Wei Hal
Wei, and the Japanese outposts in the
evening reported that the flashing of elec-
tric lights could be seen in the same direcs
tion.
An INEFFECTIVE CANNoNADE.
HIROSHIMA, JAPAN, Jan. ga dispatch
received ut the japanese headquarters
from Admiral Ito announce that the
Chinese warships are still lying in the har-
bor Of Wei Hal Wei, and he adds that the
Chinese forts and torpedo boats opened
fire on the japanese fleet on Monday last,
January 2lst, but without effect.
The firing mentioned i'll the dispatch
from Yung Cheng Ken was undoubtedly
the ineffective cannonade announced by
Admiral Ito, and the electric lights which
the Japanese outposts saw in the direction
| Of Wei Hal Wei must have been those of
the Chinese warships and forts, which
were turned nnon The Japanese fleet.
