ture Somewhat Out of the Common.
From the Philadelphia Telegram
benjamin i. Slower is a wel-to-do car
penter living in Aaronsburg. a little coun-
try village that nestles between the Brush
and Seven Mountains, not far from Belle
fontc. He works wherever his services
are demanded in that vicinity. His son,
Clarence having reached his seventeenth
year, is an apprentice to the trade OF his
father. The two left home to work on
job they had procured about a mile and
hair distant, and while walking along
the road they were overtaken by neigh
Dor. As he was alone in his buggy, he in
vited the elder Slower to ride with him,
the invitation being accepted. and the
boy left to complete his journey by him
self
In order to shorten the walk for him
self Clarence decided to take a near cut
across some nelds, and had just started
10 climb the fence at the roadside when
his attention was attracted by light
"crunching hoof falls on the frosty
ground. on looking in the direction the
buggy had taken, he was started to see a
fun grown deer trOtting toward him. 1t
had evidently come out of the strip OF
woods in which the two men had been
lost sight of. Crouching down in the angle
of the old worm" fence the boy gra sped
a large stone and waited.
In moment the deer was directly op-
posite him, and then he raised and threw
the stone with all his might 1t struck
the startled deer in the side and away Il
sped Ike the wind. Clarence was able to
follow its tracks, and as they turned back
in the direction he was going he thought
he would see the point at which Il en-
tered the woods at least Running along,
with his eyes on the ground, he reached
the top Of a little knoll in a large field
and, In a cuTsory way, looked In all drec-
tons. Imagine his surprise to see the
deer lying under a tree just a few rods
beyond. With another stone he gave il q
second pelt. This time he hit it on the

him.
At this juncture the boy grew desperate
and just as the deer sped by him he
threw himself at it and caught it by one

marks OF the combat were viewed by

but it was too strong for me to hold

1t is supposed that the first blow the
boy gave the deer must have injured it.

such a short distance from the place he
