An Element of Danger.

1t was after days shooting and
sport had been good, but, on comparing
notes in the smoking-room after din
her, the inevitable grumbler had some
thing to say.
WELL after ALL" said he, what is
there in shooting a lot of harmless,
timid birds? l don't call it sport at
all. Now, chasing the lordly lion, or
tracking the treacherous tiger to his
lair in the jungle, or facing the wild
elephant as he charges wildly through
the undergrowth-that, now, is real
sport. | call nothing sport that has
not plenty of danger in it"
Zach, mine goot frient," exclaimed
little bespectacled German who had
been attentively listening to the brave
sportsman, you like re danger NIT
your sport? Zen you comes shoot NIT
me. Ze las time l go shoot l vas

Shut the door," he thundered.
"The money! the money! It's gone!
Let no one out! The thief must still

My friend, who is traveller and q
hunter of big game" says never to
the end of his life shall he forget the
terrible fury of the trumpeted cry of a
wild cow elephant when she turned
upon her pursuers from the dead body
of her bull calf, which they had slain.
But he assures me that the cry of q
thousand wild animals of the wood
could not equal in fury the yell that
went up from these wilder animals of
the slum and the city when they heard
that the money was gone.
How he eXtricated himself from that
seething mass of human beings, fight
ing like wildcats one with the other,
he does not know. But he tells me
that within two minutes from the an
nouncement of the robbery there was
scarcely man, either among the
speakers or among the audience, who
had coat on his back or a whole
skin to his body.

Evening was creeping on when I
sailed forth again TO make my way to

hour before the advertised time of the

Sure way to Forcten weather.

A very curious method of making
weather predictions has been discov-
cred by an old French farmer.
"On Christmas eve," he says, when
the bells begin to ring for midnight
mass, take II onions and place them
in a row on table. The first onion
will represent January, the second
February, and SO on. Next make
large slit in each onion and pour some
salt into it.
"If at the end of an hour you find
that the salt in the March onion has
melted, you will know that there will
be much rain in March, and, on the
other hand, if the salt in the April
onion is not melted, you may be GER
tain that April will be dry month.
Moreover, if the salt in any onion
is melted at the top, but not at the
bottom, the first fortnight of the month
will be wet and the second fortnight
dry."-N. Y. Herald.

WEST ERIN CANADA RE.
SOURCES.
Farming Very Successful

BY Western nr Northwest Canada is
usually meant the great agricultural
country west of Ontario, and north of
Minnesota North Dakota, and Montana.
Part of it is agricultural prairie, treeless
in places, park like in others, part is
genuine plains, well adapted to cattle
ranches; part requires irrigation for
successful tillase, most Of it does not.
The political divisions of this region are
the Province of Manitoba and the terri
torial district of Assiniboia, Saskat-
chewan, Alberta and Athabask. At
present however, the latter is too re-
mote for immediate practical purposes.
The general character Of the soil Of
Western Canada is rich, black, clay
loan with clay subsoil. Such a soil is
particularly rich in food for the wheat
plant. The subsoil is clay, which re-
tains tho winter frost until it is thawed
out by the warm rays of the sun and
drawn upward to stimulate the growth
OF the young wheat, so that even in dry
seasons wheat Is a good crop The clay
soil also retains the heat of the sun later
in the summer, and assists in the early
ripening Of the grain. 1t is claimed that
cultivation has the effect of increasing
the temperature of the soil several de-
grees, as we'll as the air above it.
Western Canada climate is good-cold
In winter; hot In summer but with cool
nights. Violent storms Of any kind are
rare. Tho rainfall is not heavy. 1t
varies with places. but averages about
IL inches. 1t falls usually at the time
the growing crops need it.
The department of the interior, Of
tawa, Canada, has agents established at
different points throughout the United
States who will be pleased to forward an
Atlas OF Western Canada and give such
other information as to railway rate,
etc, as may be required.
That agriculture in Western Canada
pays Is shown by the number of testi-
moniais given by farmers. The follow
ing is An extract made from letter from
a farmer Eear Moose Jaw:
''At the present time own sixteen
hundred acres of land fifty horses, and
large pasture fenced containing a
thousand acres. These horses run out
all winter and come in in the spring
quite fat. A man with money judicious-
ly expended will make a competence
very shortly. | consider in the last six
years the increase in the value of my
land has netted ne forty the usand dol
lars"

for me, the hubbub inside the building,
and the sudden putting out of the
lights, had served to distract the at
tention of the loungers inside the rail-
ings and of the crowd outside, so |
was able to open the gate and to slip
through unobserved. Closing it si-
lently after me, l hurried along the
passage, but before had gone a dozen
PAGES | came upon some one walking
slowly in the same direction, whom,
when he turned on hearing my foot
steps, | found to my dismay to be the
old care-taker.
Where are you going, young man."
he inquired gruffly.
Perhaps my momentary hesitation in
search of a plausible excuse aroused
his suspicion, for when | said that |
was only taking an airing, as the heat
of the hall had made me faint, he an
swered, none too genially-
Then You take airin somewhere
else. These amt infirmary grounds,
and if you feel faint the best thing
you can do is to nip round to the Red
Cow and get two penny'orth of
brandy"
"Oh, shall be all right in a min.
ute, my friend, thank you," l said,
thinking it best to humor him. 81
don't care to go out into the street
for the present, it's too crowded; but
don't you bother about me, | shall be
all right when I've had a stroll round
in the air for a few minutes" and
with that | essayed to slip past him,
being impatient of this unlooked-for
bindrance.
well, you can't stroll round here"
he said, barring the way with his bulky
figure. "We can't have no strangers
along this passage. It's private prop
erty; so out you go and sharp"
Finding him thus obdurate, I did
what | ought to have done at first, and
slipped coin-half crown
thought it was-into his hand. His
fingers closed upon it in an instant.
Il don't want to be disagreeable
when gentleman amt feeling quite
we'll" he began. "All the same"
Then he stopped disgusted. why, it
amt arf crown. It's a penny-not
SO much even as the price of drink.
If you think"
Just then heard the bursting of the
bomb inside the hall. There was not
a moment to lose if was to secure the
bag, SO, determining to take by force
what had been refused me as favor,
l nudged my shoulder to the care
takers chest and Charged" him in
the good old fashion of the football
field.
Would you?" he shouted "You
rascal! knew you were after no
good!" and catching at my coat coll
lar as was in the act of passing him.
he tried to swing me round, but, los
ing his balance, fell back heavily
on the gravel, dragging me, sprawling
over his chest, on top of him. AS we
went down, a man-it was evidently |

jumping lightly over the PROSTATE pair
of us, passed through the gate, whi1h
he banged behind him.
Let me go, you dotard!" | shouted
to the care-taker Let me go before
| strike you. | must follow that man
at all costs"
The old fellow was man of spirit,
notwithstanding his years, and held
me so stoutly-I could not bring my
self to strike him-that some seconds
passed before / could shake off his
grip.
When at last I managed to wrench
myself free and leaped up to follow
lubbock, it was only to find that | had
left the frying-pan for the fire.
From the open door OF the hall
swaying throng was now surging like
devils vomited from the mouth of hell
Some of them must have heard the
meaningless cry of "Stop him! stop
thief" with which the old care-taker
saluted my flying figure. All l know
is that for the second time that even
ing l was reminded of my football
days, only on this occasion it seemed
to me that | was the football and the
center of the scrimmage, and that some
two dozen of devils-mad for blood,
and pounding and bashing at me with
hands and sticks, as well as with feet
were the players.
Che old mans meaningless cry OF
stop, thief" had led them, no doubt,
to suppose that | was the stealer of tho
money, and that, if they were only
quick enough about it, they might Sc
cure the booty for themselves.
1t did not take long to undeceive
them, for in less than half minute
hadn't as much as rag to my back;
and | was allowed to drag myself,
bleeding, breathless, naked, and
trembling in every limb, to a corner
where l lay feeling as one might who
had been snatched from the rayening
jaws of a pack of hungry wolves.
1t was some days before I was suff1-
ciently recovered to journey to Tar
borough to claim my share Of the
money and to hear how Number Two
had Jared. ] had telegraphed to say
was coming by the three O'Clock train,
and lubbock was there with the trap
to meet me.
''Well, is the money safe, lubbock"
said, as we drove off from the sta
tion.
''Yes, sir. took care of that Your
share is waiting for you all right
Rather cheaply earned, sir, wasn't it?"
NO." l answered, grufily. 1T struck
me as rather dear. Where's your mas
ter?"
''In bed, sir-what's left of him. And

Not Dangerous,

one of the guests at a beautiful sea-
shore home, was asked to supply the
pulpit on Sunday. He had done so
the year before, during his visit, and
the congregation had been large.
On Saturday afternoon, as he sat in
his room, he heard two of the grooms
talking as they returned to the stable
after having delivered two riding
horses at the front door.
