HIS TERRIBLE THIRST.

In the New Lppincott for Septsm-
Der Albert Bigelow Paine thus de-
scribes his sufferings from thirst, while
travelling alone through southwest
Texas, having lost the trail: Ny
thirst had become torture. and sudden
ly remembering that had once heard
OF Indians discovering moisture In the
heart Of the niggerhead cactus, strove
to uproot one by kicking 1t hercely
with the heel OF my heavy boot The
cactus grew everywhere in profusiop,
adhering to the soil with great tense-
ity. while its long. horny spikes made
1t difficult to handle even when uproot-
ed. Still / managed at last to get one
loosened and cut open. There was q
pulp within that contained some SEM
blance of moisture. but could not see
that it allayed my thirst. Perhaps /
was not accustomed to its use. Ny
hands were torn by the thorns and
my feet wounded in many places
was suffering and weary. and my thirst
was becoming unbearable. 1t was get
ting late by this time. and II was to
reach Pecos before dark / must push
on In spite Of pain and weariness. Ny
clothes were becoming tattered and my
hands were bleeding. but all other mis-
fortune was forgotten in the fierce
blight of thirst that had fixed itself on
me like a withering demon. When at
last ii began to grow dark uprooted

tearing the hearts from them, chewed
and sucked as one might chew and
suck a sponge from which the last
trace OF moisture has been all but
pressed. l ate a part Of my last sand

and mad with thirst, 1 sank down upon
the hot, sandy earth and stared up at

PACK MULES

And the Tremendous Loads They Can
Garry.
New York Mail and Express: The
pack mule is quite as much an insti-
tuition as the team mule, and is abso-
lutely indispensable in the mountains.
Mule packing is fiLe art, and with a
well-trained animal and a skillful
packer you can safely transport any
thing from a piano to a bag Of oats.
When the packer has finished his Job
in an artistic manner the animal may
buck or back, kick or rear, or roll, but
he cannot rid himself OF his burden,
and he finally gives it up in despair.
After two or three experiences he will
submit to his destiny and fall into line
with the rest OF the train every morn
ing TO receive his load from the packer.
A well-traired pack mule is always
proud OF his load, and IL by any means
he gets it loose he will step quietly out
Of line and wait until the packmaster
comes along to tighten it. The most
serious objection to the mule, which
you sometimes find in human beings
also, is the delusion that he can sing
One who has never heard a mule solo
canrot appreciate the extent OF his
mistake: but like everything else
about a mule, his song is strictly orig

THE scHLEY HOME.

The proposition to raise a fund to
buy a Washington home for Rear Ad-
xniral Schley does not meet win as
enthusiastic reception as it ought to.
That does not reflect on the rear ad-
miral or demonstrate his unpopularity
but suggests rather that the auspices
under which the movement starts are
not such as to throw the community
chiefly interested or the country at
large into a quiVer OF ecstasy. The
promoters, with one or two notable
exceptions, are not widely known. and
those who are known lack the quail

TWO STORIES FOR ANGLERS.
Trout Caught Twenty-Four Hours After
It Took the Fly.

Trout Caught Twsnty-Four Hours After
It Took the Fly.
A well-known Albany angler had q
unique experience this summer trout
fishing up in Canada. He was sent out
from camp to catch a mess for supper.
He was fishing with three flies on a
single leader. At the first cast his fly
was taken by a good-siZed trout that
leaped from the water to grab it. He
evidently got the leader on a slack"
before the line was frightened from the
rod, as he snapped IL on and went
swimming away with the two flies
and broken leader trailing behind.
Next day the angler revisited the lake,
and as he was looking over the side Of
the boat he espied in ten or fifteen feet
Of water the big trout that had taken
his leader the night before. A closer
examination revealed that his trout
ship was safely hitched to the dead
branch OF tree which had fallen into
the water. In swimming about one Of
the two free hooks on the leader had
caught in the branch and that ended
the migrations OF the trout still firmly
hooked by the fly he had grabbed.
Rowing ashore the angler stripped and
dove for his prize. He secured 1t and
a piece Of the branch, and to-day has
the stuffed trout with hook still in his
Jaw and the other hook embedded in
the broken branch mounted as a pisca-
torial study and souvenir Of the Incl.

Of the food products used in the en-
