Natty, agreed that 1t was the only thing
left for them TO do, sinces the hunter had
discovered their retreat, and would, of
course, return with many others like
himself to capture and kill them? So
that very night they set forth to climb
the mountain just as the moon peeped
over the snow-covered peaks to their

four travellers and understood, SO he gave
them the best light he could to guide
them along safe paths. Once, when

What's the Use?

We stew and fret and toll and sweat
And try to win a name,
We strive for years with MANY tears
To win a little fame,
And by n by We up and die
And all is just the same
So what's the use?
We all grow old in search of gold
And slave our lives away,
We sell our souls for greenback rolls
And barter love for pay,
And by and by we up and die
And then we turn to clay
So what's the use?
For low we cry, for love we sigh,
To love we fondly cling,
For eyes that shine we peak and pins
And vince at Cupid's sting,
And by and by we up and die
And everything takes wing
So what the use?
We join the race for social place
And hope at last to shine
And spend our cash to cut a dash
And when we get in line,
Why, by and by we up and die,
We're planted meath the vine
So what's the use?
Just do your best and leave he rest
To fate or what you will,
Go play your parts and break your heart,
And drink of life your fill,
For by and by you'll up and die,
And all your hopes be nil
So what's the use?

Wildcat Jumps on Enqine.

While Engineer Ed White and Fire
man Harry Ahern were speeding
through the Palisade Canyon with a
freight train at night they were
startled by a large wildcat landing
suddenly on their engine.
The animal emitted a blood curdling
cry as it landed, and when the dust
cleared away they saw the angry
beast only a few feet away glazing at
them. The two men seized weapons
with which to beat off the animal, but
it made no show of fight, leaping from
the flying train to the ground. It
rolled a dozen feet before it stopped.
but apparently it was unhurt as il
scampered away neutrality-suspicious.

Hartford Water Supply.

The Connecticut members have all presented a resolution adopted by the Hartford common council relative to the water supply of the city. The resolution is as follows: Resolved, That the city of Hartford, through its common council, places itself on rec ord as favoring the work of preserving the New Hampshire forests, which comprise the water shed of fhe head waters of the Connecticut river. which matter is to be considered by this con- gress, and which has a strong interest in Hartford by reason of the effect of this water shed upon Connecticut river floods; and be it further resolved that the Connecticut delegation in congress be urged to guard the city of Hart ford's interest in this matter.''
 A bill was introduced last session of congress to make this government forest reserve. Such law would be of great benefit to the Connecticut river, and many organizations have re- quested the Connecticut members to support the bill, which will be intro. duced again this session.
