 ''The driver had succeeded in pulling the frightened horses to their feet and fighting the wagon. He ordered us to get into our seats, and, handing the lines to the girl on the front seat, he told her to hang on for dear life.
 "'It's a lion, and he'll jump in an other minute.' said the man.
 "Then, as we sat speechless from fright, the rancher drew lis revolver. There was a scream. unlike and more dreadful than anything I had ever heard; then the great beast rolled a few feet in the brush and was still.
 After the horses were Guietcd and we had regained our colnpos.;l,o sufii- ciently we jumped out of the rockaway and with the aid of matches cxamincd our game. It was splendid young California mountain lion, measuring about four feet in length. We three girls were all very brave when we found the beast was really dead, so we helped the driver lift the carcass into the back of the wagon and then con- tinued our trip, creating a great sensa- tion among the rustics at the dance when we told of our adventure. To be sure, we gave the driver credit for the actual killing, but weren't we there when it happened, and didn't we keep quiet, instead of screaming as lots oi girls would have done?"

THE BRAIN AMe TIE HEART.

If Properly Used They Largely Escape
 SeniIe Failure.
 In his work on the senile heart Dr. Balfour tells us that there are two parts of the human organism, which, if wisely used, largely escape senile fail ure, says the Troy Times. These two are the brain and the heart. Persons who think have often wondered why brain workers, great statesmen and others, should continue to work with almost unimraircd mental activity and energy up to a period when most of the organs and functions of the body arc in condition of advanced senile decay. There is physiological reason for this, and Dr. Balfour tells us what it is. '''The normal brain" he affirms, remains vigorous to the last" and that because it's nutrition is specially provided for" About middle life or little later the general arteries of the body begin to lose their elasticity and to slowly but surely dilate. They become, therefore, much less efficient carriers areas. But this is not the case with the internal cortids, which supply the capil- lary ct the nutrient blood to the capil- lary areas of the brain. On the contrary, those large vessels continue to re- tain their pristine elasticity, so that the blood pressure remains normally high CT than within the capillary area of any organ in the body. The cerebral blood paths being thus kept open, the brain 4iSsI1a ic kant battnT nO11J-iShe0 than the other tissues of the body" Who is there among those who have reached or passed middle age that will not be rejoiced to find such admirable physiological, warrant for the belief that the brain may continue to work, and even to improve, almost to the very last hour of life?

GIRLS IN Boxn(G GLOVES.
Ten Rounds and Knockout in . New
 York SiYmnasium.

Ten Rounds and Knockout in New
 York Gymnasium.
 Nearly every week day afternoon the favored visitor to a certain aristocratic gymnasium on Fifth avenue, New York, may see clever boxing bouts between the spirituelle young sports in knicker- lockers who are members of the organ ization.
 Not many days ago, says the New York World, ten-round ''go' between two of the most expert girls resulted in a clean knockout.
 A member of the gymnasium, who found the secret too much to keep, gives details of the bout, but refused to say more than that the contestants were named Maud and Ethel respect ively.
 For the first four rounds neither fair boxer gained much advantage, al though there were several rattling ex- changes.
 In the fifth Maud secured first knock down, and there followed three rounds devoted to uneventful rallies. The ninth round was distinguished by some clever work in the way of feints, ducks and counters, both contestants being pretty well winded at the quaver- ing call of time from a member who was so excited that she had almost lost her voice.
 When the flushed and panting, but plucky, girls faced each other for the last round the first effort made was a splendid straight-arm punch which sent Ethel reeling for a moment. A new member of tender years quietly tainted in a corner just as Ethel re- covered herself quickly in time to duck another beauty aimed for the chin.
 Before Maud could get herself back into position Ethel landed twice and her adversary at once became exceed ingly groggy.
 Ethel, though putting like a grampus herself, was quick to see her opportuni- ty, and with smart uppercut sent poor Maud to the floor in bunch, fairly i knocked out.
 The vanquished maid was carried to a drassing-room, where she soon recov- cred. Then all the girls, after having a good cry together, went home, satisfied that they had lovely time and eager for the next bout.

HALTED BY A MOUNTAIN LION.
A Night Adventure of Three Girls on .
 California Road.

We were driving from Oakland over the ridge that divides Alameda and Contra Costa county, three girls bound for country dance at Moraga Valley, little settlement on the Contra Costa side. It was late in January, and the night was pitch dark, but as the young rancher who drove knew every inch of the way we were not afraid.
 ''We had made the ascent of the mountain and were driving down at a good pace when suddenly the horses stopped, reared and then swerved tc one side, overturning the rcckaway and landing us all iii the mud On the side of the road. No one was hurt, and as we picked ourselves up. wondering in dazed way what the trouble was about. something leaped out of the bushes, over the backs of the prostrate horses.

We Use Millions of Split Steel Rings, But

Don't Make Any.
 five handled and sold forty thou sand gross of split key rings since 1s67,' said the little man in an over coat and white sweater, ''and not one of them was of American make"
 "Why, how IS that?" asked a New York Sun reporter.
 Because there are none made in this country" replied the little man, with smile that lifted one corner of his gray mustache. ''No, sir,' he con- tinued, ''the making of split steel rings is an art that we haven't got hold of yet, somehow, and I must say 1 often wonder at it."
 Where are they made, then?"
 ''The best, sir, are made about fifty seven miles outside of Paris, at little can't just now recall. The next best rings are made in Sheffield, England, while rings of inferior quality, made from Swedish iron, are manufactured in Alsace. 1 don't know that the steel in the French rings is any better than that used by the Sheffield manufac- turers, but the Frenchmen in this, as in so many things, have got the hang of making their things look well. The Sheffield rings are polished with oil and emery, and that gives them dull steely look, while the French rings are polished by the dry process, with what they call 'crocus powder, sort of coarse roure.''
 ''What are the extremes in size of split rings?' the man was asked.
 'The smallest that l ever handled, /" he replied, were three-sixteenths of an inch across. They are gilded when they reach this country and are used in cheap jewelry. The largest key rings ever sold were two and a half inches in diameter, and those 1 sold to the wardens at Sing Sing. In fact, they are called pri-o rings. That key ring

New Device to Enable Them to Show
 How Their Goods Look.
 A recent device of the tailors to lure customers into contracting bills is the figure of man done in isinglass, says the New York Sun. This figure is about foot high, and is set in a square of cardboard. Sometimes it is in the shape of man wearing a sack Suit, while in others he wears a cutaway outfit, and in others again frock suit. The man himself is transparent as to body, but his face is painted on, and he wears a collar and necktie of the latest style, in paint. He serves as an illus tration, and he is designed to do away with one of the banes of a tailor's life, the man who comes in to look at goods and says:
 "Ah, yes; it looks very nice in the piece, but I'm not sure it would suit me so well made up. I'll wait until you cut coat for some one else, and then I'll come around and see how like it. 5
 Now when a customer springs this ancient remark the tailor produces one of his isinglass manikins, lays him over the piece of cloth in question, and To. he stands forth fully clothed in a wrinl1leless suit of that pattern. With a cloth of uniform color or small pat tern this device works very well, but in a large check or stripe the pattern is Sc greatly out of proportion to the size ot the suit as shown on the model that the customer is likely to be affrighted by it's apparent loudness, and the wise tailor uses his isinglass figure only with the more modest designs of cloth

His Glorious Self-Sscritice in the Min

His Glorious Self-Sscritice in the Min
 nesota Forest Fire.
 The exploit of the brave engineer who piloted his train through the tor nado of flame in the Minnesota forest fires and rescued swarms of terror stricken refugees has made him famous; but the self-sacrifce of poor parish priest in Hincl1ley has hardly been mentioned, although there was in it much of the finest quality of heroism, says the Youths Companion.
 From the moment when the destruc- tion of the town was menaced by the rapidly advancing wave of flame, he ceased to think of himself and devoted all his energies of mind and body to the protection and rescue of others.
 He went from house to house, warn ing the inmates of their peril, and beg ging them to take refuge in sand pits where there was water. While panic stricken. men were harnessing horses and frantically seeking to escape into the burning woods, he was calm and collected, reassuring everyone whom he met, yet pointing out the only chance of safety.
 He led one group after another to the sandpits when they were beside them selves from fear and excitement. When one place of refuge was overcrowded he found another, and begged the strag- glers to follow him.
 The woods were flaming on every side, and the refugees standing in the water felt in their faces the scorching breath of the storm of fire. The good priest had words of encouragement for all. He held children in his arms; he supported fainting women when they were falling from fright and fatigue; he put the stoutest-hearted man to shame by his coolness, cheerfulness and energy.
 With his hat he poured water on the heads of women and children in that fiery furnace. He took the coat from his back and tore it in half One frag- ment he dipped in water and bandaged the forehead of a woman with child clinging to her. The other half he wound around the heads of two help 1CSS SAlIIu1 CA w lOoC ldCCS WClS SCOICllcu with the heat of the burning forest.
 Bareheaded and in shirt-sleeves he stood among the dying and ministered to them while he had strength to stand, eyes to see and a voice to utter words of comfort and hope. His was the spirit of self-sacrifce and of minis try to the needy, and whether shown in Catholic,or in Protestant it is worthy of high commendation.
 The flight of the train through the burning forest was the more stirring story in print, but what could have been nobler or more heroic than this devoted mans work among his flock!
 There were deeds of valor and chiv- airy before the walls of Zutphen in Flanders, but one act of 'self-sacrifice alone is remembered. Sir Philip Sid ney, wounded, dying and burning with thirst, put away from his own lips the bottle of water which had been brought to him in his agony and gave it to a common soldier covered with gore who had glanced at him wistfully.

But, notwithstanding they are now in the city itself, there are few lots for sale vet at prices corresponding with the "Sound
 Money Doctrine of President Cleveland and
 his cuckoos, which means that kind of
 dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The
 lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence !of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property. Buy lot now for residence and when

deeply aroused by the emotions that

were almost fierce. But his general tone

The Senator presented the report pre-
pared by the minority Of the Resolutions
committee as a substitute for the gold
standard declaration. This report de-
clared for silver and was as follows:
The Republican party authorizes the use OF
both gold and silver as equal standard money,
and pledges It's power to secure the flee and
unlimited coinage Of gold and silver ct our
mints at the ratio OF sixteen parts Of silver to
one Of gold.
Then the Senator made the following
