at its height. Tiernan blinded his
horse and bending low over the sad
die kept him TO his task with sncour-
aging words. For an hour they kept
steadily on In the face OF the tempest.
To any others than that plains-tried
soldier and steed the blizzard would
have meant death. He had hoped to
overtake those whom he sought In
time to take them back to the new
path. The hope was given over long
since. Suddenly Joe Hooker stopped.
There was an obstruction on the trail.
Tiernan slid from the saddle. his
limbs already stiffened with the cold.
and with one hand on his steeds
bride he led the way gropingly for
few steps. There he found an open
carriage empty and with two horses
overcome in the trail. Tiernan's
heart nearly failed him. He knew he
was almost on the point where the
trail rounded the blum. Perhaps the
carriage occupants had sought shelter
under the lee of the embankment.
Toward II he made his painful way. A
cry came family to his ear above the
bowling OF the storm. He stumbled on
with his left hand still graspins tight
ly Joe Hooker's bride. In another
moment the steep embankment shut
out some OF the fury OF the wind
and the driving needlelike snow ceas-
ed for moment to blind his vision.
Before him in hollow of the bank
he saw three forms. Two were pros.
trate. the other was kneelinx. and
the soldier realized that the white
face of young carruthsrs was turned
toward him. while from the lips came
tho smoihercd cry. Sergeant Tier

tones from the boy. Tiernan raised
the nearest form and looked into the
face OF Molly Blake. Exposure had

three into still more sheltered nook.

round the edge OF the blum. The
Colonel slipped froa his hors. and

Relic of By-gone Days.

St. Georges church at the top Of Lord street, Liverpool, England, is undergoing demolition. and the work men have just come upon curious relic Of by-gone days The church etands on the site of a baronial castle said to have been first built by Roger de Poictiers in 1913, After being used for various purposes. the castle was demolished early last century to make room for the church While at work the demolishers of the church came upon q large slab in the east aisle, im- mediately under the stained glass win- dow facing Lord street The slab be- ing raised disclosed twelve steps cut in rock and leading to platform, and an areAed doorway led to another flight of five steps, at the foot of which was a square chamber about fourteen feet in height, also cut in the rock. From this place there i5 q passage appar- en1ly running iE the direction of the river, while marks on the walls sug- gested that the tide flowed in at high water, though the church is on a high level and nearly 200 yards from the river. It is supposed that these steps and passages were hewn in the rock to provide an outlet from the castle near the waterside. and that when the castle was removed it was thought easier to cover the entrance than to fill up the passage Foul air prevented ths workmen from exploring further

CHINESE HISTORY IS ANCIENT
Dates Back to the Time When Ntneveh
 Was a Great Metropolis.

The authentic history and biography of China is doubtless the oldest in the world. even antedating that of the Jews. Those familiar with it's chro- nology state that it embraces a period from the year 122 of our era back to the remote period of 2.697 years before Christ. The historians of China em- brace a succession of uninterrupted series of more than 2,400 years me full and continuous history of the ein- pire was compiled in the second cen tury of our era. The great libraries of Pekin contain volumes of books numbered by the hundreds of thou sands. In the archives of the govern mant an still to be found the ancient predictions of eeli9ses made with great accuracy. together with works on as- tronomy which show Q fair knowledge of that interesting science. Biogfa- phfes, very suceinetly written, of the emperors of the most ancient dynas- ties still e st. and written works Of learned men are as xoluminous as those of European nations. And ali this learning and love of learning has been acquired without help or sugges- ton from any foreign people. If their authentic histories reach back nearly five centuries ago, mythical history reaches stia further back into the very night Of lime. When Nine{eh and Babylon were fn the s9lendor of their might men in China were pre- dieting eelfpsas5 making eataIogas and giving names to the stars But NineFeh and Ba89I6 were mere mounds of earth and rubbish when China was great. and to this date the civilization and lie of the empire ara the wonder of 4lzz#=astd.

SHE cHoKED 4 LYNX TO DEATB
Arizona Girls Brave Battle with Brute
 That Attaeked Her.

That Attacked Her
 George J. Manassa of this citE. who has been spending the past two months at KIngman, Ariz., tells an interest ing story of a case of heroism in young girl that came under his obser- yation, says tae Kansas City Journal. He said that one day while there a ranchman, J. A. Carrow, brought into the town for medical treatment his son Murray, s years old, and his daughter, IF years old, who were frightfully la eerated= by the teeth and claws of some animal. and the rough usage showed upon the boy in wounds upon the arms, hands and the breast and shoul- defs. Iron inquiry he learned that Mfr Carrow was wealthy ranch owner living about twenty-five miles north of the place and that the two children had been Iaeerated by lynx that had attacked the boy and had been strangled to death by the girl. "The boy" Mir. Manassa said was playing in a swing in an almond or chard near the house, when a fero eious lynx sprang upon him and pulled him to the ground. 4 life and death struggle then took place between the little fellow and the animal Taking the lynx by the ear and one leg he succeeded in throwing it to the ground and holding it there, screaming for help. The lynX vas biting his hand in a horrible manner, but with Spartan courage he he'd on until his sister came. The animal had got the bet ter of the boy when the girl, with only her naked hands as weapons, gave battle. She struggled with tke in- furiated brute and. although he clawed and bit her, she never released her hold until she had it pinioned to the ground by her knee and a death grip on it's throat
