Mrs. Dixon, who lives in the Coast
Range Of mountains, some fifteen or
twenty miles east of Salinas, Cal, has
done something which it is not likely
any other civilized woman now alive
has ever done. She has had fight
with an angry deer and killed it with
club. On horseback, and alone,
followed by her dog, she started to
visit neighbor in Relis canon. On
the way she sighted deer, big
buck. Mrs. Dixon is something of q
huntswoman and avery good shot
with either rifle or shotgun. She was
unarmed, but she started after the
buck, and they all went clattering up

on its tracks and shot across the road
directly in front of Mrs. Dixon, its
fanks almost grazing her horses nose.
The horse gave one wild leap, which
threw Mrs. Dixon to the ground, and
was off at, dead run.
The deer turned again and came
rushing back. 1t almost jumped over
Mrs. Dixon as she lay on the ground,

to bathe. Evidently the lads We're unac

Of the sands at the point at which they
entered the water, for they walked out
at once to easy swimming depth. Sud
denly both found themselves in deer
water, a strong undercurrent having
drawn them Into one of the many
pots" or pools which constitute the
chief danger Of the place.
To the lad Cunyngham the situation
was not desperate, but the young mas.
ter Of Saltoun was quickly exhausted
and was on the point of giving UP the
struggle when his companion, forget
full of his own danger and eager only

cue. After desperate struggle Gun.
yngham succeeded in getting his friend
into shallow water, through which the
latter dragged himself in terribly ex.
hausted condition to the beach.
Turning to thank his rescuer, the
master of SlltOun was Mortified to find
that he had disappeared. Frantic with
excitement, he ran as fast as his condi.
ton would permit to some fishermen
who were working some distance along
the beach, but although they lost no
time In making search for the lad no
trace of him could be found. He had
givenall his strength to save his friend,
and the cruel sea had sucked him back
to his death.-London Mail

Brave Lffe-Sayers,

on FRIDAY, May 10, 1894, the
schooner William Shupe, owned by
her master. Nelson Little, Of Port
Huron, drifted down Lake Huron be.
fore northeast gale blowing 80 miles
an hour. water-logged, her canvas car
ried away and her crew lashed to the
rigging. Passing steamers could give
her no aid, SO fierce was the gale and
so heavy the seas. When Saturday
awoke it found the doomed schooner
on reef eight miles above Port Huron
and 100 yards from shore. The news
was carried quickly down to Port
Huron by landsmen, and the powerful
tug Thompson was sent up, with her
own crew and half q dozen sturdy fel.
lows from Port Huron and q yawl. At
noon they arrived abreast of the
schooner, but dared not go close
owing to the shallow water. There
was nothing to do but attempt the res.
cue with the yawl. 1t was foated
and manned by volunteer crew con.
sisting of Captain Little, brother Of
the master of the Shupe; Daniel E.
Lynn, Barney Mills, eAngus Ring and
William Lewis. The schooner was
reached. The seas swept high over
her, and on attempt was made to tail
the yawl astern. She was alongside
the schooner, the painter made fast,
and was working astern when sudden.
ly three big waves struck her in rapid
succession. The line frightened up
with the first, the second enveloped
her and the third turned her ever and
threw every soul into the boiling sea.
The attempt at rescue was all this
time being watched by hundreds Of
people ashore. Lynn struck out for
himself. The others could not save
themselves, for they disappeared, one
by one, and were never seen again.
Lynn's one object was to avoid the
death embrace of any crazy man try
ing to keep his head above water. He
knew by experience what that meant.
Being of powerful physique and q
skiliful swimmer he headed for the
beach, and had gotten close to it when
the undertow began to carry him out.
But a life line was being led out
by Charles Conkey and Mark Randall,
of Port Huron, and they reached him
in time to save him from the fate of the
rest.
In response to q dispatch the Sand
Beach surfboat was loaded on O fiat
car, and with it's crew carried down to
Port Huron. 1t was quickly hauled
to wharf, showed off and towed by
the Thompson to the scene. Captain
George Plough and his crew of eight
had q. good seaboat beneath them and
plenty of experience to back them,
and in less than an hour had every
ono of the Shupe's crew aboard and
headed for Port Huron.
Lynn, who led the volunteers, and
who occupied the most conspicuous
position in the affair, was afterward,
at the request of the citizens of Port
Huron, awarded a gold medal by
special act of Congress. He was then
twcnty-four years old, and in his
career along the water front of Port
Huron had saved twenty-five lives.

Return of the BustIe.

was not badly hurt. Then the deer
arched its back and drew itself up as
if it were preparing to jump on her
with oil four small sharp hoofs at the
same time, the way deer kills rattle
snakes and other enemies which it can
get under its feet. But the dog came
to the rescue. 1t had been barking
furiously at the deer and gradually
edging nearer, and just at the critical
moment it dashed in and began biting
the deer's hind legs. The angry ami.
NAL then turned its attention to the
dog, and Mrs. Dixon had q chance to
get up.
Most women would have been thank
full for the opportunity to pick up their
skirts and run or do their best to climb
a tree. But Mrs. Dixon's fighting
blood was up and she merely looked
for club. She found stout, goodly
sized limb of tree. and, taking it in
both hands, whacked the deer over the
head with all her strength. it went
down on its knees at the first blow.
and while it struggled to get up an
other brought it to the earth. She
pounded away on its head with all the
strength she could muster, while the
deer struggled in vain to regain its
feet, and the dog barked and worried
its legs, and her hat came off and her
hair came down. At last the buck
stretched out its legs and died and
Mrs. Dixon rested for few minutes
and got her breath again. Then she
hunted upher horse, which had stopped
to Craze a little way up the canon.
She dragged the deer up to the top OF
q bank beside the road, and leading
the horse alongside, tied the deer fast
to its back with strips which she tore
from her petticoat. Then she walked
home, leading her horse, and exhibited
her prize and her blistered hands in
triumph.

mathematical talent, and her examina-

the highest honors during the years
she was o teacher in that collage.
After her marriage, while residing in
q small Georgia village, church So
ciety, of which she was an active men,
ber, served luncheons one day at q
horse fair. Mrs. Lapsley's contribu-
tion OF beaten biscuits established her
reputation as an expert cook. At vari-
Gus times large trays of these delicious
biscuits were sent to be sold for the
benefit of the Church Aid Society, and
it was not until the village was visited
by cyclone, which swept everything
before it, including Mrs. Lapsley's
possessions, that she began to support
her family. Later she went to Atlanta
and put her biscuits on trial at the
Woman's Exchange. The demand for
her dainties increased rapidly. At
first she sold four dozen q day. Now
she considers 400 biscuits q small

1000. Women are always bound to
succeed in the domestic branches of
employment, and Mrs. Lapsley's sue
