Championed by n Dog.

Several years ago in Wisconsin, before
the Indian had retired from the neigh
borhcod of the white man, mother
and her little girl were alone in their
cottage on the edge Of a great forest.
Everything seemed peaceful, and there
was no thought of danger. The mother
sat inside the door sewing, while the
child was in the bright sunshine play
ing. Their large black dog Cuff was the
only other member of the family. Sud-
denly half dozen Indians fresh from q
recent raid on whisky stood in the door
way and demanded more whisky. The
lady had no whisky, but offered them
food and drink. The Indians, however,
were drunk, and before the mother
could interfere the roughest seized the
little girl and was making OFF with her
when the dog, which had wandered
away short distance, came bounding
back. In an instant he had the savage
by the throat and threw him to the
ground. The others, having no firearms,
beat hasty retreat. The dog kept a
tight grip Oh the Indian until they had
all gone, then released him, and he also
departed. Dumb Animals

WINNING A WIFE IN GREECE.

Sponge Gatherers Engage in SUBJ
aqueous Contests for Her Hand.
In many of the Greek islands diving
for sponges forms q considerable part
Of the occupation of the inhabitants.
A visitor to this unfrequented region
describes the following rather startling
custom. He says: "Himia, which is a
little island directly opposite Rhodes,
is worthy Of notice on account of the
singular method by which the Greek
inhabitants Of the island get their liv-
ing. On the bottom of the sea in this
locality the common sponge is found In
greater abundance than in any other
part of the Mediterranean. The natives
make it trade to gather these, and
their income from this source Is far
from contemplate; their goods are al
ways in demand among the Turks, who
use an incredible number Of sponges In
the ablutions prescribed by the Moham-
medan ritual. A girl in this island is
not permitted to marry until she has
brought up certain number Of spongea
and given proof of her skill by taking
them from certain depth. But in
certain of these islands this custom Is
reversed. The father of marriage
able daughter bestows her on the best
diver among her suitors. He who can
stay longest in the water and bring uL
the biggest cargo of sponges marriee
the maid"

anyhow. Man over there that I sell
goods to, and won't lie except when the
fishing season is on, told me, as an Illus

business, that one day Mrs. Edison came
to her husband In great glee and an

husband, never stopping minute from

The excursion to Wheeling W. Va,
over the W. & L. L. line on Sunday,
was not success, except for the rail-
road. The train left here at 100 o'clock
in the morning. When it reached here,
it consisted of ten coaches and they were
already loaded. 1855 people got on al
this place and the train pulled out with
most of them riding on the platforms,
People were turned away at stations be-
low here who had bought tickets and
were entitled to the ride. The company
did not furnish a sufficient number OF
ears to accommodate them. They also
failed to make the time they had adver-
Used. Those who went from here were
twenty one hours on the road. The
train reached Wheeling only short
time before it was scheduled to return
and the excursionists who paid their
fares to see the town, were very much
disappointed. Returning, the train
reached here at 400 o'clock Monday NOR
ming. Agent Williams says that num-
der Of their coaches were rented to Other
lines fOl the transportation Of the G. A.
R. people to Buffalo, and for this reason
they were short of cars.

But when the hours and days increase In

And dreariness and WEAKNESS pursue,
When youth and love grow dim in backward

And life is but to bear and still forbeaH,
All, then, her gentle sweetness, unaefled
By years Of bitterness, shone forth. She smiled
Ny lady always smiled, in life and death.
Some envied her a life that seemed all smiles.
And some cried out or caught sobbing breath,
Self pitying, and God and man reviled,
But some, to sorrows burden reconciled,
Rere glad the gladness Of her face to see
Through toll and care and heartless apathy.
