The old Indian woman glanced
furtively ut the distant sky line, and
then conferred her gaze upon the deep
crystal waters of the lake. The Ong:
she said. l will tell you of the Ong.
The Ong was huge bird, greater
than the houses of the white men. Its
body was like the eagles, and its
wings Were longer than the tallest
pines. Its face was that Of an In
dian, but covered with hard scales,
and its feet were wrbbed. Its nest
was deep down in the bottom OF the
lake out in the center, and out of the
nest rushed all of the waters which
fill the lake. There are no rivers to
feed the lake, only the waters from
the Ong's nest. All the waters flow
back near the bottom, in great under
sweeps, and after passing through the
meshes of the nest are sent forth
again. Every plant and bird and ami
NAL that gets into these under-cur-
rents, and sometimes even the great
trout are swept into the meshes of
the nest and are there held fast to fur

and the darkness crept over the lake,
and into the darkness the Ong van
ishrd.
The women had been long in their
hutS ere the council fire was kindled,
and the warriors gravely seated them
selves i'll its circle. The loss of Il
young brave could not be allowed TO
interfere with so important an event
as the marriage choice, and from most
of their minds lie had vanished. 1t

But while the warriors We're work

toward the middle of the lake. Mona,
the Chiefs daughter, understood no
more than the rest why her lover had
not been dropped into the lake, nor
why the Ong had acted so queerly,
but she knew that she could die with
her lover. She took her own frail
canoe because it was so light and
easy to paddle, though it was made
for her when girl, and would scarce

escaped him. Sometimes he would
fly about the shores in quest of some
child, or woman or hunter, yet he was
great coward, and was never known
TO attack anyone in camp, or when
two or more We're together. No arrow
could pierce his feathers, nor could
the strongest spear do more than
glance from the scales on his face and
legs, vet his cravcn'S heart made him
afraid, for his toes had no claws, and
his mouth no beak.
Late one fall the Washoe Indians
were making their final hunt before
going to the valleys and leaving the
lake locked in its winter SHOWS. The
Chiefs daughter was sixteen years
old, and before leaving the lake he
must select the greatest hero in the
tribe for her husband, for such had
been the custom Of Washoe chiefs
ever since the tribe came out of the
NOrthland. Fairer than ever Indian
maiden had been was this daughter,
and every unmarried brave and war
rior in the tribe wished that he had
performed deeds of greater prowess,
Ilat he might De certain Oh winning
the prize. That last night at the lake,
around the big council fire, each was
to smoke the pipe and recount to the
Chief the noblest achievement Of his
life, and when all were heard, the
Chief would choose, and the women
join the circle and the wedding take
place. For many years the warriors
had looked forward to this event and
the tribe had become famed because
of acts Of reckless daring performed
by those who hoped to wed the
Chiefs lovely daughter.
1t was the morning of the final day,
and much game and great stores of
dried trout were packed ready for the
journey. All were preparing for the
wedding festivities, and the fact that
no one knew who would be the bride

warriors. lent intenSest excitement to
the event. All We're joyous and hap

had done deed of valor, nor could he

SIX HUNDRED DOLLAR BILLS.
How An Innocent Man was Sus-
pected.

A little story was told at the New
Willard Hotel in Washington the other
day by New Yorker who was travel
ing on Pullman car between st.
Louis and his home, which goes to
show the danger of convicting q man Oh
circumstantial evidence. The principal
figure In this incident was not con
yilted, but had it not been for q for
tuitous circumstance 1t might nave
gone hard with him.
1T seems that one of the occupants
Of the car on getting out of his berth to
dress missed his vest, which was a
rather serious affair, inasmuch as 1t
contained i'll an inside pocket a roll or
money which consisted Of six brand
new 500 bills.
"A little later he picked up the gar
ment on the floor, but on searching, the
roll Of money was gone. 1t was a
clear case of robbery, and the man
naturally raised an excited cutlery,
which drew the attention of all his
fellow travellers. Early In the game
the proposition to search everybody in
that coach was made and adopted W. h
but a single dissenting voice. One man
stood out tercely and Indignantly
against it, and said that he would
never consent to such an indignity, but
would oppose it with all the force he
could eAploy.
This man was at once an object OF
suspicion, and many whispers directed
at him went around Every other indi-
vidual aboard voluntarily submitted to
being searched, yet nothing was seen
of the Glen bills. At this point some
amateur Sherlock Holmes cornered the
porter, and by adroit questions and
threats made that raScally employG
oWn up to the heft. and also made him
disgorge 5000 in handsome notes that
appeared to be right from the Print
| ing Bureau. The owner of the money
was overjOyed and all hands cOngratu-
lated him on recovering his money
About this time the obdurate gen
tleman who had resolutely declined to
be searched secured the floor. Now
my friends said he, L will tell you

Nursery Nonsense.

Two magpies sat on a garden rail
AS long ago as week;
And one little magpie wagged his tail
In the other little magpie's beak.
Then doubling like a INST his little
claw hard
Said the other "Upon my word,
This is more than flesh and blood can
stand
From magpie or other bird"
so they picked and they scratched
each others eyes
Til all that was left on the rail
Was the beak Of one of the little mag
pies,
And the other little magpie's tall.

CHICKAMAGUA ANNIVERSARY.
One of the Great Battles of the Rebel
lien-Tragic Death of Poet-Soldier
General vile.

General Lyle.
Forty-two years ago the latter part
of September was fought and won by
Rosecrans the great battle of Chicka-
magua.
Chattanooga, the objective point of
the campaign, has been we'll considered
the very gateway of the entire South.
Bragg, i'll command of the Confederate
force, was outwitted and outma-
neuvred, and the town of Chattanooga
fell into Federal hands, entirely by
strategy.
Chattanooga was then but a poor,
struggling village, never having been
even heard of by one in a thousand of
those who composed the Northern
army. 1t is now wealthy, prosperous
city of over 10000 inhabitants and the
home of many Northern families. An
electric line runs from the city to
Chickamagua Park every 80 minutes.
The celebration of the anniversary
of the battle. from the 10Th to the 23d
of September, where the tales of the
campfire and the picket line were once
more recounted, has been of surprising
interest to thousands Of old veterans
and their quondam foes.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1905-11-04

The battle Of Chicliama@ua. which
followed Chattanooga. WAS most dcSpcr-
ately contested on both sides.
Bragg was reinforced by a veteran
corps from Virginia. under Lou"strc"t.
and Buckner's Corps from East Ten
ncSSce. until his forces outnumhcred
RoSecrnns' by over $1,000 and yet tn"
Northern army, by wise and vigorous
marching day and night over noun
tainS and through passes. and 10y the
concentration of widely scattered
forces. inflicted such terrible losses
that Bragg was incapable of any but
the most cautious following when
RoSecrans fell back to occupy Chatta-
nooga, for which he had been contend
ing.
Among the many brave officers on
both sides who gave up their lives for
their beloved causes there was none
drawer, none more mOurned than the
Union Brigadier-Gcncral, VIM. IL.
Lyle. About to give the order to
charge, he was struck in the head by Il
bullet and fell dying in the arms OF his
aid.
His poem of "Anthony ana Clnopa-
ira" generally believed to have been

but which, as n matter of fact, was an
earlier production. has been clasScd rs

time today to hearing an explanation
of the plans which Bunau Varilla and

of the canal under the French regime,
told the board that by his method
the canal could be built and put into
operation within five years. He pro
posed a lock canal which could be
deepened TO sea canal in five years
more. A novel feature of his plan
is 10 construct the locks foundation
