HaatY NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

''Let not blind passion guide you
in your choice of a life partner" ad-
vised a lecturer while lecturing at
Scranton (South Dakota) on Glove,
Courtship and Marriage" "but aim
rather to select one of congenial tastes
fitting age and temperament similar to
your own-your physical and mental
complement. The professor looked
sagely about and added: 'That young
lady," pointing to damsel on the
front seat near the platform, "has
sanguine temperament, domestic
tastes, quick but not vindictive temper
and warm and loving disposition.
There" and he pointed toa young man
near the center of the room, lis one
who would make her On excellent
husband. Their lives would blend
tremendously, and no matter how
slight their mutual regard at first the
union could not fail to be ahappy one."
The damsel was Miss Hattie Weaver,
daughter OF Well-to-do merchant OF
Scranton. The man was J. W. Ellis,
q stock raiser living near town. They
had never met, but the professors
words naturally caused an exchange
of chances. The inspection was
mutually satisfactory. So Ellis asked
Miss Weaver after the lecture what
she thought of acting on the professors
suggestion. Miss Weaver saw no OBJ
lection, and added that there was no
time like the present. The County
Clerk was in bed, but he donned his
clothes at Ellis summons and issued q
license. A justice of the peace was
reused from his couch, and in less
than an ..hour after the lecture the
ceremony was completed and the two
had been made one.-Detroit Free

A Horse as an Oversoer.

On Sunday mover in prairie
schooner passed through Parsons,
Kan, going West. He hsd a small
drove of mules and several horses, all
loose, following the wagon, and
among them was q beautiful sorrel
horse, with bride and saddle on, but
no rider. People on the streets no.
ticed that the sorrel seemed to be
overseeing the herd and would round
them up occasionally. As the caravan
reached Central avenue the sorrel
horse ran ahead and stood in the mid
die of the street, looking up and down,
as if watching for danger. After sat-
isfying himself that the way was clear
he rounded up the herd and the cara
van started again.
Having reached the katy" cross.
ing, the animal again went ahead, and
standing in the centre Of the tracks,
looked intently each way.
When the herd had partially crossed
the tracks he suddenly pricked up his
ears, and hurrying to the rear, he
rushed the herd across on the run. A
train was coming from the south, and
passed shortly after he had got safely
over.
He hurried to the next track, which
branches off several rods from the
main line, and seeing train coming
from the opposite direction, rounded
up his herd and waited until it
passed. It was a most remarkable
performance, witnessed by large
number Of people on the streets. The
horse was evidently high bred ami
NAL, built like a racer, with small
ears and very intelligent.head.
During all this time the mover did
not get out of the wagon, but left the
management of the whole matter to
the horse.

CT still another canon, parallel to tho
course he had ridden that day, rum
ming to the valley of White River.
He was between two ravines, and the
Sioux we're doubtless in both OF them.
Arson saw no way left but to make
his race down the divide; SO he turned
his horse directly toward White River
and galloped on for dear lite. The
savages intended to catch him either
while crossing one of these ravines or
at the mouth Of it. They were prob
ably in advance, but he might still
get ahead by burst Of speed:
The country, growing rougher as he
approached the river valley, made
hard running for his pony, but he
kept little Buckskin at his best pace
for the next twenty minutes, and then
plunged down into the broad level
land with deep relief. as he had left
the mouths Of the canons on either
hand. Again he felt that strange
sense of having been befriended by
Providence, and now his hope to
reach home rose high.
He had not ridden 500 yard into
the valley when he heard faint yells.
Turning, he saw the enemy come tear
ing out of the nearest canon. On
seeing him they shouted defiance and
disappointment, and fred scattering
shots as theg rode along the slope of
the bluff. When he dismounted to
answer them, they hurried back to
the mouth OF the ravine.
Arson rode on again, and saw no
more Of the savages, and lie did not
encounter any others that afternoon.
He crossed White River, made his
way safely through the cavernous
and precipitous breaks upon the other
side, and camped to rest himself and
his weary pony.
That night, as he had now no pro-
vision for q ride directly across the
country, he made detour and reached
the stage road to Sidney. From
there he took the longer and safer
route home, which he finally reached
to find that his wife and surviving
child were entirely recovered
