SOARING THE LIOIIS.
Fierce Forest Kings Drive n on By
Initiating the Cries Of
Pack of Wolves.

NJ. Foa, the French explorer, says
that lions have a wholesome fear Of
African wolves, which hunt in packs,
and do not scruple to attack even the
lion. There are terrible battles in
which the lion succumbs to numbers,
and dies fighting. In connection with
the lions fear of wolves M. Foa tells
a story from his own experience.
1t was very dark night, so dark
that trees could not be distinguished
until the travellers were close upon
them. Lions prOwled about the party,
one of them roaring from point so
close as to have an alarming effect
on the nerves. The animals could not
be seen, but they could be hea I'd on
all sides.
Reaching a tree, the men found one
of their comrades with rife cooked,
peering into the darkness, trying to
discover the whereabouts of the an
imal, which could be plainly heard
walking among the leaves. A second
man was trying to relight a half-ex-
tinguished torch. Still the lions could
be aeard coming and going in the
darkness.
At this point the native servant
whispered the advice to initiate the cry
Of wolves in the distance. The party
at once began barking and crying:
ely! hu! hui" in an undertone, as if
the pack were still at distance, while
the man at the camp made the same
weil-imitated cry.
The effect was instantaneous. There
was the sound of q rapid stampede
across the dry leaves. The lions de-
cainped in a panic, driven off by the
supposed approach of pack of wolves.
Fer the rest of the night the party was
undisturbed.

Mrs. Clark did not answer, and Bar
bara went on: "You know, mother, I
made a special study in college of So

Mrs. Clark looked at her daughter
again with that questioning Look of
doubt which she often felt when Bar
bara spoke in certain way. 1t was
not the girls habit to treat any sub

great seriousness now, and yet there
were ideas in what she said that her

A SCOTCH Dialogue.

morning, one neighbor called upon an

friends wife, and the dialogue went

and with the boys went into the sit
ting-room.
They found that Mrs. Ward had gone
upstairs in answer to a call from
Lewis, the oldest boy of the family,
at home, who had broken his arm the
week before. while engaged in sport at
school.
The duty of putting the two young
er lads to bed devolved upon the
father. He performed the duty with
out much heart in it. His wife was 81
lent and in no mood for reconciliation.
When Carl said his usual prayer, he
added: "And bless Maggie, because
she is so bad, and has wandered far
from the fold" repeating phrase he
had heard at Sunday school the week
before. And Mr.. Ward listened with
anything but a love of mankind in his
heart, wondering whether he ought
not to be included in the child's petit
ton, esteemed church member though
he might be in the eyes of those who
did not see into his home life.
In the morning he faced tired, list
less, discouraged wife, sitting oppo-
site him at a breakfast which had been
prepared with his help, under protest,
and with a spirit of nervous depres-
sion that from experience he knew
well enough meant a miserable day at
home.
He rose from the table with really
desperate feeling, saying again TO
hsmself: cit would be funny, if it
were not so tragic"
Ell try to find some one, Martha, -
he said, feebly, as he put on his hat.

He was tempted to grow angry, but
checked himself.
I'LL advertise. I'm tired of send
ing to the agencies"
His wife did not answer.
We'll do the best we can, Martha.
There must be some competent girl
in this city somewhere"
eff there is, we never found one, -
Mrs. Ward answered sharply.
He wisely declined to discuss the
question, and started to go out.
"I'n not be at home to lunch" he
said, putting his head in at the
door.
There was no answer, and he slow
ly shut the door and started for his
car at the next corner; and, of the
many burdened, perplexed hearts
carried into the city that morning,
it is doubtful whether any out of
all the number was more burdened
than that of Mr.. Richard Ward, of
the firm of Mead, Ward and Company.
He sent in to three of the leading
evening papers a carefully worded
advertisement asking for a compe-
tent servant, and took up his days
work with its usual routine without
the least expectation that any reply
would come from his advertisements.
1t would, therefore, have given him
a peculiar sense of interest in the fu-
ture, if at about six o'clock that even
ing, as he went out of his Office and
with strange reluctance started for
his home, he could have seen in
house not two blocks from his own
a young woman eagerly reading the
advertisement and talking to an old
er woman in a strangely subdued, but
at the same time positive, manner
concerning it.

Barriers to Freedom.

A San Francisco dispatch of recent
date reports public sale in that city
Of five Chinese girls who were
knocked down" to the highest bid
der. These girls were the property OF
Chinaman who was about to leave
for his native heath. The girls were
exhibited, the auctioneer enumerated
their good points, and they were sold
and delivered at prices ranging from
81, 200 to 1880 each.
To be sure the sale was not legal,
but the property" did not know IT,;
and as no protest was made by the
well-informed. the sale and delivery
were as effective as though they had
full sanction of the law. Is 1t not true
that We are becoming somewhat inGif-
ferent in these days to such proceed
ings as this? Is it not strange that IN
one OF the largest cities of this coun-
try such I mockery upon liberty could
be made without evoking indignant
and effective protests? Is It not posi-
ole that We have become negligent in
tho duty Of crushing out innovations
upon American ideas?
The San Francisco Chinaman had a
recent precedent from which to take
encouragement. He probably remem-
bered that general OF the United
States army had signed an agreement
wherein It was stipulated that in GER
tain territory, where United States
sovereignty had been declared and
over which the United States flag
waved, any slave might have the priv
ilege of obtaining his freedom by pay
ing to the master the usual market
price" In that particular case the
usual market price" is said to be
about $50. In San Francisco 1t would
seem that the usual market price
ranges from s1,700 to $500. The dlf-
ference. however, is purely one of dol
lars and cents. And II 500 could be
designated as the barrier to human
freedom in the Sulus, the heather
Chinee." perhaps, felt justified in rails
ing the barrier in California to the
extent OF a few hundred dollars.
