BOWLING TO HIS HORSES NECK.

she arose to listen ITO the words of the
leader, who soon drew his horse to a
halt before her.
Raising mis- cap and bowling to his
horses neck. he said: Have 1 the
pleasure of addressing the mistress of

piled the undaunted woman.
Tarletons face flushed, but ne made
no reply, and, turning to one of his
companions, gave orders for camp to
be made in the orchard near by. Soon
the LOO men in his command had
pitched their tents, and the peaceful
plantation took on the garb of war.
Returning to the piazza and again
bowling low, the British colonel said:
Necessity compels his majesty's troops
to occupy your place for a time. and
viii have to make my quarters in your
house; that is, if it will not be too
great an inconvenience to you
My family consists at present of
only myself and child and sister, be
sides the servants, and we must obey
your orders
In less than an hour the entire place
was transformed. The white tents
covered the lawn, horses were tied to
the high rail fences, soldiers in bright
uniforms were moving here and there.
Before entering the house the British
colonel called some of his officers and
gave sharp orders for securing the

A shout and the sound of firearms

the long avenue that led to the house.
a cry escaped her at the sight, for
there was her husband, followed by
two of her heighbors, pursuing on
horseback a hand of five tories whom
Tarleton had sent 10 scour the county.
On and on they came, and il was evil
dent that the pursuers were too busy
to have noticed the army of Tarleton.
Broad swords and various kinds of
weapons were flashing in the air and it
was plain that the enraged Slocomb
saw nothing but the tories he was
pursuing. Could nothing be done?
Would they run into the very heart of
the camp? Mrs. Slocomb tried to
scream and warn her husband. but
not sound could she make. One of the
tories had Just fallen, when she saw
ana
swerve to one side. What was the
cause?
Sambo, the slave whom Mrs.
Slocomb had dispatched, as soon as
Tarleton had come, TO warn her hus-
band, had started promptly on his
errand, but the bright coats of the
British had so charmed him that he
had fingered about the place, and when
the sound Of the guns was heard
Sambo had gone only as far as the
hedge-row that lined the avenue. Dis
erection became the better mart of
valor then, and the negro in his fear
had crawled beneath it for shelter. but
when his frightened face beheld mis-
master approaching, he had mustered
courage enough to crawl forth from his
hiding place and startle the hoses as

Mexico City, June 16.-Between 10
and IL o'clock last night earthquake
shocks were felt in this city and in all
southern Mexico from Acapulco TO Vera
Cruz. They were especially violent in
the town OF San Marcos, state Of
Puebla, where the shocks were both
vertical and horizontal and were ac-
companied by subterranean rumblings.
The movement was 35 seconds. followed
later by another shock lasting ten
seconds. Acapulco reports a shock both
vertical and horizontal, preceded by
loud noises under ground. Curiously
enough the movement was experienced
across the whole country at about the
same time, the hour reported differing
only few seconds. No damage is
noted, but there is considerable alarm.
The town of Fechimilic, near the city
of Oaxaca was inundated suddenly,
several persons being drowned.
Rains are very heavy in that region.

To the Editor:
One year ago last March I planted
in Bear Lake 100000 white fish fry
near St. Charles. The eggs came from
Lake Erie and were Matched out at
Montpelier, Idaho. 1 have just re-
ceived by express six baby white fish
weighing from eight ounces to one
pound each, fat and juicy withal. This
shows a phenomenal growth and that
the conditions for their multiplication
and development in the Bear Lake
waters are certainly very good and
abundant and no doubt all that could
be expected. The near future will show
the great Importance of this

The plaintiff claimed that he paid

had been mistreated and was no better
after taking the course than before,
and on that ground demanded a refund
of his money.
DR.. Arnold admitted that the plaintiff

From developments at the trial it
however appeared that Sawin will not
be able to recover anything from the

ing to the latter and he in turn had
disposed of it by mortgage or other

A PATRIOTS WIFE.
BY EVERETT T. ToMLINsON


One warm morning in the spring of
1870 Mrs. Slocumb was sitting on the
broad piazza about her home on a large
plantation in South Carolina Her hus-
band and many of his neighbors ,yere
with Sumter, fighting for the struggling
colonies, but on this beautiful morning
there were almost no signs of war to
be seen. AS yet this plantation had
not been molested, and as Mrs. Slocumb
glanced at her little child playing near
her or spoke to her sister, who was
her companion, or addressed a, word
to the servants, there was no alarm
manifest But in a moment the entire
scene was changed
There come some soldiers said her
sister, pointing toward an officer and
20 troopers, who turned out of the
highway and entered the yard
Mrs. Slocumb made no reply, al
though her face became pale, and
there was a Tightening Of the lips as
she watched the men. Her fears were
not allayed when she became satisfied
that the leader was none other than
the hated Colonel Tarleton. That short,
thick-set body, dressed in a gorgeous
scarlet uniform, the florid face and
cruel expression, proclaimed the ap-
preaching officer only too WELL But

see. But for the present, trying to
stihe her fears, she determined to make
the best of the situation and avert all
the danger possible by providing for
the comfort of Tarleton and his men,
and accordingly she had a dinner soon

good for such a cruel and bloodthirsty
man as TaNeton soon was known
TO be.
