She Rode a Wild Steer.

Miss Edgewood, of lie Raysyille,
Penn, is al intrepid horsewoman, and
likes nothing better than riding fiery
mustang over the hills and down the
ravines. The other day, however, she
became tired of this wild sport of
wrestling with buching broncho and
rode wild steer by way of variety.
In company with q number Of cattle
men she had been chasing a steer that
was particularly wild and feet-footed.
The young lady laughed at the men,
who seemed afraid Of the animal, and
smilingly challenged them to throw a
rope over the animals head and ride
him. They declined with thanks. She
then lassoed the animal herself, and,
running up to it, deity tied a rope
around its head and neck, and then
told the men to let him loose.
This they did reluctantly, and the
enraged steer was quickly on his feet,
but equally as quick the girl was on
his back. Then began ride that
beat old Paul Revere's by some Sec
onds. For half an hour it was con-
tinued-over hill and dale, through
brush and gorges-the girl always
hanging on like a burr. Finally the
steer completely gave out, and the girl
led him to her home in triumph.

Saved at Sea by n Dos

The ships company of the littl.
French fishing brigantine Marie
arrived at Hoboken, N. j., one night
recently on the North German Lloyd
steamship Muenchen. The Marie
sailed from Granville for the Banks
on March "a, with twenty-three fisher
men under Captain Berri, the owner,
or patron, of the little craft, Jean
Dupau, and big Newfoundland dog
called ''Noir," which in plain Yankee
means "black." The dog is pure
blooded and was born almost within
sight of the Banks.
The Marie ran into good deal Of
rough weather when about in mid
ocean, and sprung aleak. A heavy
gale swooped down on her on April
Is and whipped out her foremost
close to the top Of the forward house.
There were ten dories on the dock
house, and four of these were carried
away by the seas that swept athwart
her.
I, The brigantine then fell into the
trough of the sea. Her nimble sea-
men chopped away the wreckage and
got her head to the seas by using the
main boom as a jury foremost and
bending on to it storm trysail. The
storm subsidized, but left a long swell,
which after three days started the
vessels seams so that her pumps were
unable to keep her free.
The Newfoundland was the only
creature aboard that did not take any
rest. He ran about the decks day and
night, ana barked with almost as
much energy as the whistle of a steam'
ship in distress.
The brigantine's decks were flush
with the seas, when, on April 81, the
Muenchen hove in night. The day
before British steamship passed fan

but did not notice her. The dog
howled as loud as he could, but the
Briton was too far away to hear.
The moment the Captain of the
Muenchen saw the flare light on the
brigantines decks he ordered two
boats manned and swung from the
davits to rescue the hapless fishermen
They were not needed, as the French
men had already left their vessel il
their dories. One careless sailor fel
overheard while getting into dory
He might have drowned had it no
been for the big Newfoundland, which
leaped into the sea and grabbed the
fisherman by the blouse, holding hin
up until his shipmates came alongside
him and hauled him aboard.

Rescued From a Panther.

John j. Finn, of New York, while
fishing near Fort Pierce, Fla, with a
party, had terrible experience with a
panther. Being interested in the
sport, they threw the fish on the banks
as they went along and got separated.
Mr.. Finn, On going through picket,
came face to face with huge panther
feasting on some Of the fish that had
been left.
Mr.. Finn picked up light wood
knot and threw it at the beast, shout.
ing with all his might. He also drew
his hunting knife. The panther, en-
ragged at being disturbed, suddenly
jumped ct Mr.. Finn. The latter
turned and attempted to escape. The
panther's claws caught him on the
shoulder, ripping his coast and shirt
down and lacerating his back badly.
Mr.. Finn made thrust at the panther
with his hunting knife, but the beast
knocked it out Of his hand with blow
of his paw. Selling cudgel Mr.. Finn
managed to deal the beast a heavy
blow, which temporarily stunned him.
Hardly had Mr.. Finn gotten ten
feet away before he heard the panther
after him again. With tremendous
leaps he came on and dashed up to
him, crouching low for the fatal spring.
Just then report was heard at the
side of the path, the strength of the
beast was gone, and with snarl Of
rage and pain he fell dead. Mr.. Finn
looked up and saw Billy Bowlegs, a
Seminole. He had been on the trail
of the beast all the afternoon, and had
gotten there just in time to save Mr..
Firms life.
