Rudyard Kipling's Description OF How
tho Vicious Brute Was Killed.
"Come out, thenv' Chinn shouted.
"Come out Of that. Let's have look at
you.
The brute knew well enough that there
was some connection between brown nuds
Bills and his weekly allowance, but the
white helmet I'm the sunlight annoyed
him, and he did not approve of the voic,
that broke his rest. Lazily, as a gorged
snake, he dragged himself out of the cave
and stood yawning and blinking at tho
entrance. The sunlight fell upon his fiat
right side, and Chinn wondered. Never
had he seen tiger marked after this fash
ion. Except for his head, which was star
ingly barred, he was dappled-not striped,
but dappled like childs rocking horse,
in rich shades of smoky black on red gold.
That portion of his belly and throat which
should have been white was orange and
his tail and paws were black.
He looked leisurely for some ten seconds
and then deliberately lowered his head,
his chin drouped and drawn in, staring
intently at the man. The effect of this
was to throw forward the round arch of
his skull with two broad bands across it,
while below the bands glared the unwink-
ing eyes; so that head on as he stood, he
looked something like a diabolically scowl-
ing pantomime mask. 1t was piece of
natural mesmerism that he had practiced
many times on his quarry, and, though
Chinn was 10y no means terrified heifer,
he stood for awhile, held by the extraor-
binary oddity Of the attack. The head
the body seemed to have been packed
away behind 1.-THE ferocious skull-like
head-crept nearer to the switching of an
angry tail tip in the grass Left and right
the Bills had scattered to let John Chinn
subdue his own horse.
"My wordl' he thought. Hes trying
to brighten me like bogy." And he fired
between the saucerlike eyes, leaping aside
upon the shot. He feared he had left 1t
too long.
A big coughing mass reeking of car
rion, bounded past him up the hill, and
he followed discreetly. The tiger made no
attempt to turn into the jungle. He was
hunting for sight and breath-nose up,
mouth open-the tremendous fore legs
scattering the gravel in spurts
"Scuppered, said John Chinn, watch
ing the flight. Snow, il he was par
fridge he'd tower. Lungs must be full of
blood"
The brute had jerked himself over a
bowlder and fallen out of sight on the 9TH
or side. John Chinn looked over with u
ready barrel. But the red trail led straight
as an arrow even to his gIandfather's
tomb, and there among the smashed spirit
bottles and the fragments of the mud
image tho life left with furry and II
grunt.-Rudyard Kipling in McClure's
Magazine.

Paderewski.

Paderewski, the great pianist, was a
professor Of music long before no discover
cd his talent, and he did not begin to
make Roadway until he was 81. He was
then very poor, In debt and residing In
Paris. A foreign princess babe him attend
her salon for fee of 100 francs. He did
SO with friend. and his hostess and her
friends were charmed with his original
playing. But the musician was as proud as
he was poor. He had walked on foot to the
house, and when the princess said to him
as he was about to leave, "You must allow
mo to send you home In my carriage"
Paderewski replied. MADAM, my carriage
Is ut the door," and he walked back with
his friend. That evening was the turning
point In his fortunes.

almost broke his heart. During her fire.
quent attacks at Saratoga and later,
when the two families met in New
York and in London, sometimes she
was very trying, but never knew him
to show sign or utter word of impa-

she said and did, made excuses for her,
concealed her irritability and her ire
sponsibility as much as possible. He
held her in his arms, as if she were a
baby, for hours and nights together
without murmur, and he showed de-
votion that hardly can be equaled. -

he might have some more schooling.
Twas such courage and resolution
as this that made him an illustrious

THE BEGINNINGS.

1t is the fad among some philan-
thropic circles, to regard the criminal
as either insane or delinquent. While
that theory might be true in some case,
is it true of all? To illustrate, on ac-
count of birth, and other circumstances,
over which he has no control, he is for
hidden the privileges and rights of
polite society, he can nevertheless iden-
tify himself with just as definite and
exclusive community as the one he
has been turned out of. One of the
first notable features of low life is it's
gregariousness. If he is tramp he
wants to know his partners, and the
same instinct prevails in all other fields
of Outla In time as he comes to
see that this world is large one-so
large in fact, that he can never under
stand it all he chooses as he can those
particular pals with whom he can get
on the easiest, out of this choice.
There develops his future character.
1t is these conditions and misunder-
standing of the we'll meaning society
which makes the problem of reforma.
tion so difficult to solve successfully.
In Chicago, New York, and other
large cities, are societies who make
a business of finding homes for outcast
newsboys and bootblacks, help to put
them under the right kind of influence,
and away from the evils of low life, it
is step in the right direction.
The evils of low life are contagious,
and to be treated scientifically they
must be prevented from spreading.
Break up its gangs. For let two out
casts have even but a little influence
over a weak human being, and there
are three outcasts. Begin at their
beginnings. G. w.

from ALL harm and sin, to forgive past
sins and save you at last. She also
prays God to have you return to her
whether you have been good or bad.
Boys put this question to you, are
you doing right in neglecting to write
to her? No, your conscience says, then
why not do so at once and remove those
wrinkles OF care from her loving face.
You say II am ashamed to let her
know Pm in prison" we'll that is very
bad for you but would you rather let
her go to the grave with a broken
heart than prolong her life by writing
her few lines even if you are in here :?
Think about this, boys turn the matter
over in your minds, consider it we'll,
and l tuink if you do as your consci-
ence tells you. you will write her at the
first opportunity that presents itself.

Six Months so cents,

When the call for arms came "Buck-
ey'' formed his company so quickly
that the President telegraphed his
thanks, and the riders went straight
to San Antonio, each man proud to be
with his captain and willing to die for
him.
The women of Prescott presented the
riders with silk flag (the first raised
near Sevilla, Cuba) and the men gave
Buckley revolver. Judge Ling, who
made the presentation speech, said:
'Mayor ONeill, we want to give you
mount. 1t is not full grown, but mere.
ly Colt. We tell you that it bucks.
Every time it bucks head it toward a
Spaniard and you can rest assured that
one more Spaniard will bid his father,
the devil, good morning"
"Buckey" then went to the front.
He wrote his friend, Thurlow Weed
Barnes, letter from San Antonio, in
which he said: 81 am ready to take all
the chances. Who would not gamble
for new star on the flag?" "Buckey"
gambled and lost, poor chap, and the
rough riders are mourning a gallant
cOmrade, a soldier who was brave and
who died with his boots on" and his
face to the enemy.
At Baiquira Corp. Cobb and Private
English fell from the lighter into the
sea. Quick as lightning "Buckey" was
overheard and swimming toward them.
Unhappily, the lighter swung round
and crushed both the soldiers before he
could reach them.
Buckley exemplilied the time. worn
saying. "The bravest are the tenderest,
the loving are the daring"
"A gentle little woman, whom he mar
ried several years ago, lives to mourn
the man, who no matter where he hap
pened to be when away from home.
wrote her letter every day. Even in
his pursuit of criminals over the des-
erts of Arizona and Colorado "Buckey"
wrote few lines to "Pauline" on
scrap of paper, and sent it back by any
stranger whom he met on the highway.
He came from fighting stock. His
father was Capt. John O'NeiIl of the
famous Irish brigade of the Second
Army corps in the war of '61. His
brother, Eugene Brady O'Neill, is now
on his way to Manila, first lieutenant
of volunteers. High on the roll of
honor, which will be one of the cOun-
try's contributions to history, will be
the name of this man, whose courag-
eOus spirit and striking personality
won for him the respect and love of
every man, woman and child whose
good fortune it was to know him.

WRITE TO MOTHER.
J. G. H.

on who are lucky enough to still
have loving mother be she far or near
should not hesitate to drop her a few
kind words of devotion to relieve her
Of the anxiety that fills her dear old
breast to nearly breaking. She still
loves you no matter what you have
done and it is very, very wrong and in
reality sin to leave her in ignorance
of your whereabouts. Oh. boys and
men IT you knew how anxiously she
has waited these many years for even
single line from you, you would not
wait long to gladden. her poor break
ing heart.
Think of her going to the office as
regular as the days 60 by looking for
the letter that never come, think how
she turns away with tears in her eyes
and sorrowful downcast look upon
her care worn and loving face. When
the postman says "no letter today" see
how slowly she trudges homeward her
head bent low upon her breast. She is
slowly nearing the grave, her poor heart
is breaking because she has no word
from her dear boy who was her Joy and
pride when a child. Think how many's
the time she has watched over you and
cared for you when you were too weak
and small to care for yourselves and
lay so easy and sunny in the cradle fast
asleep-if father happened to step in
just then she would raise her hand
as warning and say ssh, be very quiet
and don't wake our pet, he is fast asleep
and [ want to fix some clothing for the
little angel see how she glides around
the room on tip-toe as noiseless as a
cat-scarce sound she makes for fear
of waking her all in all.
Think how she has labored for you
always keeping your clothing clean
and in good order, darned your socks,
BACKED your shoes, brushed your
clothes and little hat, when you were
in the land of nod so as they would be
ready for you in the morning to put on
and she has taken many a step to save
you for fear you were tired and would
not want to do it all this and hundreds
of other things she has done for you
with loving care because she loved her
boy she would gladly lay down her life
any day if by doing so she could save
yours. There is not a scaffOld to high
for her to climb if her boy is there nor
a prison bar that will keep her from
you. If you are wounded by the way
side strangers may pass you by, but if
mother knows it she will find some way
to get you home and nurse you to
health again. No matter how great a
sin you may have committed she for
gets that and tells you the good deeds
you have done over and over again, you
are still her boy. The whole world may
condemn you, but that will not weaken
her love for you.
Verify there is none like mothers
love. Just imagine her at every even
ing longing and working for you, the
last thing at night she does is to offer
lup prayer to God to keep her darling
