apples were from an earthcn Jar taken

was taken from one of the pyramids,
the butter from stone shelf In an old
well in Scotland, where for several
centuries IL had lain in ON earthen
crock In icy water, and the wine was
recovered from an old vault In the city
of Corinth. There were six guests al

many times been chased and escaped,
that Il came to be regarded as n
charmed beast Not long ago the
owner of n game preserve heard that
the stag had been seen on his land and
came from London with some friends
20 hunt it. Two or three times in as
many days the stag was seen ana shot
at without effect and the hunters were
wild over their failures. There was n
boy at the gamekceper's lodge, n mis-
chievous cub whom nobody liked, ana
therefore would not let him go hunt
Ing with the rest One day large
.rty went after the stag, leaving the
boy alone, with the instructions to
shoot rabbits II he wante any fun. So
the boy took the l. ;gcst gun he could
find and went forth. After rambling
around. he got tired and went TO sleep
on a bank. When he awoke, he saw
the stag not 30 yards distant, and on
the impulse of the moment banged
away. Down went the animal, all
charms failing, and the boy march
home TO tell the news. The reception
he met surprised him greatly. The
hunters were so angry that they
thrashed him and sent him home that
very day. IL was all right TO kill the
stag, but they wanted the honor

that the Mexican cattle brought into

of those states. Senators and repre-
sentatives of the intermountain states,
which are largely engaged in grazing,

Extraordinary story In which ths samoan

The Samoan islanders In the South
Pacific relate the following extraordi-
nary story 20 account for the alarming
and 20 them mysterious phenomena OF
earthquakes Strange 10 say, the
legend seems designed to explain why
earthquakes are not worse than they
nrc.-which strikes one as n rather su-
pcrfluous proceeding. IL should be
promised that Mafuie Is their volcano
god. Just rs IIiawatha Is the god Of
thunder among some Of our Indian
tribes.
"Talaco,r says the Samoan myth
maker, "had n charm which would
make the earth divide. One day he
came TO q certain place and cried; %
Rock, divided am Talogo come TO my

headlong young fellow; and this youth

Being excessively inquisitive, ~ fol-
lowed his father and saw him a sccnd,
the cai tn closing after him Coming
te the Same spot, Taitai also cried; %
Rock. dividci am Talago come 10 my
work.
"But the earth, percciving that some
thing was wrong, would not open.
Then Taitai became angry and stamped
his foot violently; whereupon the earth
was frightened and opened. Taitai at
once descended and. being irrcpressi-
bic. like most other youngsters, he
made great racket His father adj
viscd him to keep quiet, but the boy
only grew the more noisy. Presently
he observed smoke at a distance and
asked the cause OF 70. Talago said: 1t
Is Mafuie heating his oven The incor-
rigiblc Taitni at once resolved to in
vcstigatc. Notwithstanding the warn
ings Of his father.
"As soon as Mafuie saw him he asked:
who arc you tina. you come under the
earth? Are you n planter Of taro, a
builder or twister Of ropesp i am a
twister Of ropes replied Taitai; give
me your arm and I'll show you SO
Mafuie gave him his arm and he twist
ed IL of in q moment Then the un-
lucky Mafuic screamed out in pain and
terror: Ma fla ola; Ma fla olaY-that
is, let me live; and Taitai pitied him
and let him 60"
Since that time the natives whenever
they feel an earthquake shock are wont
TO cxclaim: "Thanlts TO Taitai. that
