So Brownie was unclaimed and was
taken to the clrcus-like ring. where
the trained dogs performed every aft
ernoon, and went through his tricks
as easily and readily as though he had
performed them only the day before
The managers were quite convinced
that Brownie had proved his friends
claim, and the gentleman who had
entered him said that he would give
up his own claims. Marjory's father
afterward saw that his loss was made
good
| need not tell you how happy Mar
jory was when Brownie was brought
back to hex, which was just as coon
as possible after the little scene at the
dog show. Aud now there is added to
her fondness fpr Brownie a very great
pride that he\ could make himself
known and PROVE his claim so cleverly
as he did.

Donegal now threatens the su-
premacy of Scotland in the matter OF
granite. Experts who have been pay
ing extended visits OF inspection In the
neighborhood of Dungloe, in West
Donegal, report immense formations OF
granite, which for variety OF shade.
durability. and general beauty are said
to rival the famous products of Aber-
deem and Peterhead The Dungloe
granite, 1t Is stated, embraces almost
every variety of color and texture, the
predominating shade being red and
fesh-colored stones OF medium and
coarse grain. A still more beautiful
variety OF stone, which is found in
Dungloe. is the very dark micaceous
granite, closely resembling the hand
some Labrador" with which many
London buildings are pillared.
When 1t is remembered that one firm
alone In America imports $4,000 worth
of polished granite yearly from Aber-
deem, and that the demands for the
highest class stone In all shades is ever
on the increase. there should be thrlv-
Ing times for Donegal in the near fu-
ture.

Among the Maoris of New Zealand.

Among the Maoris OF New Zealand.
AT sunset one evening we saunteTed
into a Maori village, and found our
selves in the grassy inclosure wherein
sat the tribe eating its evening meal.
Some natives might have resented our
invasion. Not so the Maoris. With
unaffected pleasure they beamed upon
us; many brown hands were out
stretched to grasp ours, and tattooed
lips, in hospitable If quite unintelligi-
BILE language, invited us TO partake.
Round two large dishes the entire par
ty of men. women, girls, youths and
babes were squatted, and it was inter
esting to see that in this tribal COM
mune the smallest child had evidently
as much right to put his paw In the
dish and help himself as had his eld-
ers. In a pool of gravy In a tin pan
lay large ham bone at which an in
FAINT was picking. but the chief provi-
sion lay in great pie dish full OF
kumaras (sweet potatoes), and some
green vegetable. In addition, there
was a splendid loaf of bread, round,

WoodchucIS Man,

New York Sun: IF | don't wake up
before the bluebirds come" said Cyrus
Brown on the evening of December IS,
1899, burn match under my nose
and stick needle in my arms. | want
TO be out in the woods by the time the
sap gets to running" Mr.. Brown is
known locally as the "woodchuck
man." so called because he has slept
continuously through the winter
months for the past eleven years be-
ginning his long nap before the mid
die of December and coming out about
March 20. He is nearly 20 years old,
and until he was hit in the head by a
falling limb while working in the
woods in the winter of 1888, he had
been very robust man. He was fell
ing logs on a lot some distance from
camp, and when he did not come in to
supper men went out and found him
lying senseless under fallen limb
with scalp wound on the top of his
head. After lying in a comatose con-
dition for three days he was wrapped
in warm blankets and put in a hogs
head Allied with straw to be carried so
miles to the nearest railroad station.
Everybody expected that he would be
dead when he reached home, but there
was no apparent change in his condi-
tion. He remained in a desth-like
sleep all winter. About once week
he took half a pint of brandy and
four raw eggs and then fell asleep
again as IL it was the only thing for
him to do. The doctors who visited
him tried many experiments, In the
hope of waking him up, but without
any success. Meantime his body had
turned to chalky white color and his
temperature had fallen to near the
freezing point. One doctor who had
come on from New Brunswick to see
him. told his family that he was dead
beyond question, and that this faint
agitation that could be felt over bis
heart was no more than the reflex ac-
ton of the muscles. coffin was or
dered and the burial robes were made
ready when his body heat began to
go up. 1t rose two or three degrees
during the day, and fell back a degree
or less in the night, but though the
gain was small, 1t was in the right di-
rection, so the family postponed the
funeral and waited. After the animal
heat in the body had reached 20 de-
grees pulsations were felt in his wrists
and his chest rose and fell from IL
to Is times an hour, indicating that
respiration had set in. The coffin was
put out of sight. and on March 21 the
sick man opened his eyes and called
for food. He ate hearty meal, slept
three days longer and then got up and
went about his work as IL nothing had
happened. Every year since then he
has dropped of to sleep at the begin
ming OF settled cold weather and has
not awakened until the early spring
birds come north. In the warm wealth
er he seems as active and vigorous as
he ever was, although his memory has
failed of late, and at times he COM
plains OF headaches. The doctors give
no name to the malady, but say that
1t is due to a torpid condition of the
body which is allied to the Information
of animals. For want of a better title
the people have named him the wood
chuck man.

There had been quite little talk
about robbers. and reports had been
circulated that some of the inhabitants
had lost various things from their
woodsheds.
These reports had\ greatly excited
man. of the residents, especially the
children, many of whom never thought
Of going to bed without hiding their
treasures and securely fastening every
door and window.
In one home was a very imaginative
little daughter named Mabel who was
about IL years old These stories had
made a great impression on her mind,
and she spent good deal of time
planning how she would meet them
when they came. Time went on. but
still the robbers made no appearance,
and Mabel was beginning to feel rath-
er slighted. because she longed for
chance to show her courage.
At last one night she thought her
turn had come. She was awakened at
midnight by grating sound, which
seemed to come from closet in her
room. Her courage began to waver
and all her plans deserted her. She
lay wondering what to do for at least
hve minutes, but could not decide. She
had once almost decided to rouse the
household, but she thought the robber
would kill the person coming to assist
her.
