Love IN Lapland.

In Lapland the crime which. after
murder. is punished with the greatest
severity is that of marrying a girl
against the wishes of her parents.
When sutton makes his appearance
he says nothing to the maiden. who
often does not know who he Is, but her
parents inform her that she is sought
in marriage. Shortly afterward, on a
day appointen. the girl, her parents,
friends and sutton all meet together at
a feast. and the young man and maiden
are placed opposite, so that they can
look at each other freely and can talk
with comfort After the meal is over
the company repair TO an open space,
where 1.-The race for wife is run. The
usual distance is about quarter of q
mile. and the girl is placed a third Of
the distance from the starting point.
If she be feet of foot she can easily
reach the goal before her sutton, and
in that case he may never trouble her
again. If. however, he has found IA
vor in her eyes, all she has to do is to
Log somewhat in her fight, SO that he
may overtake her. If she desires to
intimate to him that his love for her
Is returned she may run little way
and then turn with open arms to ac-
Cept him.

The E1clu.ivene.. of Caste.

An English officer who some years
ago was wounded in n battle in India
and left lying all night among the ma
tive dead and wounded tells this story:
"Next morning we spied a man and
an old woman, who came to us with
8 basket and pot Of water, and to
every wounded man she gave piece
of joaree bread from the basket and
a drink from her water pot. To us she
gave the same, and thanked heaven
and her. But the Soobahdar was a
high caste Rajpoot, and, rs this woman
was Chumar or of the lowest caste,
he would receive neither water nor
bread from her. l tried to persuade
him to take it that he might live. but
he said that in our state, with but a
few hours more to linger, what was a
little more or less suffering to us-why
should he give up his fate for such an
object? No; he preferred to die un-
polluted."

Foolish fear az the opai.

Many people to this day have su-
perstitious dread of wearing opals. be-
cause they really believe i'll luck is at
tached to this beautiful stone. Three
centuries ago the opal was an exceed
ingly fashionable gem, and the Italian
goldsmi,hs particularly favored its use
for their most exquisite settings
The opal was at the height Of its pop
ularity when the plague broke out in
Venice. Some especially obsersant in
dividual discovered that when plague
stricken sufferer was at the point OF
death the opal, if lie wore one, would
grow brighter. and after his death it
would grow dull. The reason for this
appears to have been that the burning
fever warmed the stone and that after
death the damp and chill! of the body
dulled it, But many deduced from this
belief that it was the opal that had
brought death and misfortune, and
with the spread of this superstition the
opal declined in popular favor.
Many persons would on no account
whatever even accept one as gift,
much less wear what they foolishly
deem the unlucky opal.-New York

Courage of wild Dogs

The whole tribe of wild dogs, which
in closely allied forms are to be found
in the widest jungles and woods Of
Asia, from the Himalayas to Ceylon
and from China to the Tnurus-unless
the golden wolves Of the Roman en-
pire are now extinct in the forests Of
Asia Minor-show an individual and
corporate courage which entities them
to a high place among the most dar-
ing Of wild creatures. The "red dogs"
to give them their most characteristic
name, are neither large in size nor do
they assemble In large packs. Those
which have been from time to time
measured ana described seem to aver
age some three feet in length from the
nose to the root of the tail.
The pack seldom numbers more than
nine or ten. yet there is sufficient evil
dence that they are willins: and able to
destroy any creature that inhabits the
jungle, except the adult elephant ana
perhaps the rhinocPros creatures
whose great size and leathery hide
make them almost invu!ncrable to such
enemies as dogs-London Spectator.

A THRILLING RESCUE
Californian Descends Face of
Precipice to Rescue Woman
Who Had Fallen
SHE LAY ON NARROW LEDGE
Mrs. A. E. Johns, of New York City,
With Difficulty Taken From Danger.
Gus Position-she is in State of Ter.
ribIe Exhaustion From the Shock and
Exposure-Lost Her Way.

Yosemite Valley, Cal, July 15.-At
the imminent risk of being dashed
headlong to his death, ]. z. Potter yes
terday descended the face of a preci-
pice, many thousand feet in height.
and rescued Mrs. A. f. Johns, of New
York City. from a narrow ledge, where
she had landed after fall of several
hundred feet.
Mrs. Johns had started from her no.
tel Monday afternoon. to walk to the
Fissures, two miles away. She did not
return that night and searching parties
started out. Yesterday morning she
was fund by Mr.. Potter lying on ledge
two feet wide. which juts out from the
face of Sentinel fissure. She was too
weak to speak and only by signs was
able to show that she still lived.
Her escape from death had been mar
row. She had lost her way in the dark
ness and had fallen at least 500 feet,
partly breaking the force of the descent
by clutching at juniper bushes and
scrub trees as She fell thru them.
Mr.. Potter tried in vain TO work his
way down the mountain side to her, but
was forced to return for assistance and
a rope.
When the rope had been lowered Mr.
Potter descended. There, lodged upon
two foot ledge. with her clothing torn
TO fragments, and her flesh scratched
nd 10,
exhaustion and lack of food, and be-
numbed by the frosty chill of the night
With difficulty the rope was securely
tied around Mrs. Johns waist, and an
effort made to help her to the rim
above. This attempt proved futile be-
cause of Mrs. Johns weight. BY lean
ing over the abrupt precipice, Mr. Pot
ter could discern another and larger
ledge hundred feet below, from which
there was sheer drop of hundreds of
feet.
Giving the order to those above to
lower the rope. Mr.. Potter swung the
inanimate form Of Mrs. Johns out from
the tiny strip of rock, upon which she
had braced herself for fifteen hours, and
into chasm beneath. BY swinging the
rope to and fro he was able to lodge
the body of Mrs. Johns upon the larger
ledge and then descended after her.
Calling to one of the mountain guides
a bore. Mr.. Potter had him descend the
rope to the ledge. Then the two pick
ed up Mrs. Johns and made their diff
cult way around dangerous lodges and
over yawning precipices beneath, until
finally, worn out, they reached the
rim above once more
Mrs. Johns is suffering much from
nervous shock, but as no bones were
fractured she will recover. Mrs. Johns
husband is now in New York City. She
expected TO start soon for Japan.
