Same Old Story.

Americans apparently are not the
only ones who suffer from the lack Of
good servants. Housewives will
probably appreciate the motives
which led to the insertion of the fol-
lowing advertisement in the South
eastern Herald of England: "Gener-
al servant required, board-school
training; liberal wages; use of piano;
time allowed for practicing violin
and dancing; all evenings out; fol-
lowers unlimited; dirty work done by
mistress and daughters; early riser
objected to; bicycle and modern cos
tune provided; latchkey; highest ref
erences given, none required"

GAME TO HIS CALL.
SURPRISE for an Arkansas Man Who
Was After Wild Turkeys.


Capt. j. c. Whitney, we'll
known planter and hunter living at
Morrell, Ark, met panther one
morning this week just at daybreak,
and very nearly lost his life. He
was out hunting wild turkeys, and
had reached a point scarcely three
miles from Morrell 1t was on the
margin of the swamp, and, hiding
behind log, he began calling for
a game, using the cry which has de-
coyed numbers OF the fowls to their
doom.
He had been calling only few
minutes when he heard a noise that
he thought was made by a turkey
coming out Of the swamp, and he re-
doubled his cries, in monetary ex-
pectation of beholdipg it. But to
his surprise the noise ceased, al
though he kept on calling louder
than ever. AT length he ceased. 1t
was then that he became conscious
of some other presence besides him
self in that lonely glen, and instinc-
lively glancing over his shoulder, he
perceived large panther upon the
log behind him. The animal was
stretched at full length on the log,
and was preparing to spring upon
Whitney, who until that moment
was unconscious of its proximity.
Quick as lightning's flash, as he
raised his double barreled shotgun
and fired, but his nerve had been
shaken by the unexpected encounter
and the charge few over the
panther's head. Instead of running
away the animal leaped at him, pass
ing over his head and carrying away
his hat with a sweep of one of its
claws. 1t lighted just beyond him,
and, springing upon the log, faced
him and crouched for another spring,
the motion of its tail knocking
pieces of bark and twigs from the
log.
Whitney fished long-bladed knife
from his pocket, and holding it in
his left hand, attempted to raise his
gun and pull the trigger with his
right. But before he could do this
the panther was on him. The first
onslaught made by it cost Whitney
the entire sleeve of his coat, the
animals sharp claws tearing it en-
tirely from the left arm. Whitney
attempted to strike it with his gun,
but it evaded the blow and bounded
over the log. Then it again faced
hin, its eyes blazing like balls of
fire even in the fast approaching
light of morning. The position of
the combatants was now that Whit
ney was on one side of the log
and the panther on the other. It
prepared to spring again; it
crouched close to the ground, which
it dashed with its tail, while uttering
a sort of suppressed growl.
Once more Whitney raised his
gun, and before the animal could
jump upon him, he sent a charge
straight between his eyes. With a
cry, almost human in its expression,
the panther leaped into the air and
fell dead across the log. 1t measured
seven feet and three inches from the
tip of the nose to the tail. Panthers
are very numerous in the Beouff
river swamps, and this is the third
one which has been killed in that
neighborhood since the middle of
February.-N. Y. Sun.

FRENCH SHORE"
May Be Used Hereafter by Fishermen
OF Newfoundland.
MOST TROUBLESOME QUESTION
Now Being Adjusted by Eng
land and France.

ST. JoHY's, n. f., Feb. 1s.-Ncgotiations
are almost completed in Paris whereby for
rights granted France by Great Britain in
Africa, tho French will cnounce rights to
cure fresh lsh on the west coast of New
foundland. This will be a great boon To
Islanders who are now shut out OF one OF
the best parts of the colony. Marquis
Dufferin is conducting negotiations in be.
half of Great Britaip in Paris.
There is no dispute of thNFrench fish
Ing rights on the banks of Newfoundland,
which are on the high seas, and open to
all nations alike; nor is there any ques-
ton as to French ownership of the islands
of st. Pierre and Miquelon, lying about
lao miles off the coast, which were coded
by the treaty of Paris Q763) to the French.
These islands nave now "a population Vt
o 5000, and are a rrIdezvous for about
POO French vessels during the fishing
season.
The issues in dispute concern only the
French rights on what is known as tho
French shore" of Newfoundland, ex-
tending from Cape Ray at the southwest
corner of the island 20 The most northerly
point, and thence southwark again TO
Cape St. John, thus
Including About seven Hundred Miles.
The French claim the exclusive right OF
fishing Including lobster nghing and can
ning), and the right 90 prevent the sland-
ers from any occupation OF the land foi
any purposes, to the extent Of n half-mile
from shore. The English claim that the
French rights are concurrent only with
those of English fishermen, and hat Great
Britain is bound only to prevent her sub
jects from i"nterrupting Frcnchmen in the
exercise OF their fishing privileges.
One of tho difficulties of recent years
has been the "iobster question" Tho
lobster canning industry is nm important
one, since one-fourth Of the value OF the
annual exports, S7,OOO.OO0. belong 10 that
industry. In 1887 a Newfoundland fac
tory, opened in 1883, was closed summarily
by the French naval commander, and
warning against a resumption OF work
was issued by the British naval com
mander.
Tn present provincial act passed by tho
Newfoundland legislature attempting to
regulate affairs expired In 1898. That re.
duced the question % the point reached In
1891, when the British government enact
ment assuring the execution OK the
treaties wa signed with France.
