The nor nal color of wild boars is very dark gray, but in most lights they appear black, and among the moonlit flowers these fellows were inky. There was practically no wind, and what there was was in my favor, so there was little danger of my presence being detected if I made no noise took out my field glass, and with 1t could see the nearest boar turning over the earth, and pushing the sods about with his snout. Now and then he would find what he was looking for, probably root of some ksnd, and then he would stop to munch 1t, the sound he made being plain to hear. His search for food happened to bring him quite close to where I stood, and had a cleaf view of him. He was monster, and once, when he stopped to munch a root, I saw his head and felt glad that stood close to tree.
 It was few minutes after daybreak that heard the crack of a rife, and mak- ing my way in the direction of the sound, I found guide in the act of dressing his kill It was young albino wild boar, with few black patches on his skin. He had been shot before his time, because he was not true to color.

The public opinion of the world-this is shown most effectively. not in the discontent of unreasoning sections of the populaee in either of the countries lately at war. nor in the criticism of in- terested persons. or interested factions, or interested governments. says an edi- toriai ia Century. but in the decisions of the worlds honest and disinterested thinkers: those who bail the advance nent of peoples and wish we'll to all mankind.

tilted over the race at the back a mass of saffron and pink roses falling low over and standing high up from the hair. Another hat of somewhat the same coloring was large fiat with a crown of very dull gilt shading to pink, the brim black beaver, the trimming black plumes and salmon pink roses.
 There were goodly number Of white lace hats, and it seemed to be the fashion to trim these rather sim ply; perhaps band of gilt galoon, per haps a roll of mink and single pink rose. There were beautiful subdued reds and prunes; perhaps the hat would be beaver of warm gray with a suspicion of rose color about it, and the trimming wreath of dullest red roses and velvet of the exact shade as the flowers. One longish turban, not the frail finery of the others described, was of the shaggiest blue beaver. like very deep fur, draped turban and the only trimming pulled ruche of gobe- lin-blue lowered, green gleams in the gobelin blue. It would be just the sort of hat to choose if one required sin gle hat to do duty for all occasions; there was style to it and the sort or coloring affected just at the present. subdued tints and yet by no manner or means a colorless effect. We would bear witness that the finery in general seemed to us this year to have more artistic meaning than usual: 1t was not a mere display of lot of money expended, the coloring as a whole was i beautiful.
 Of the furs, perhaps ermine, or some thing ably initiating ermine, was moSr noticeable There was much wearing of white feathery neck-pieces, too, and these were largely the same shape as the furs, large flat shoulder pieces as we'll as ruffs. Color was introduced sometimes, there would be pink or blue band down the middle of the feather piece. Baby blue and baby pink seemed well restored to favor, and as rule were becoming. old-rose colored hats looked most attractive when the wearers had about her throat pillows of white ostrich feathers. the latter softening the deep color of the headgear Really, the horse show was like flower show. one walked in . garden of beauty.

It was growing dusk by the time reached trout brook at the bottom oi little valley and took my. seat on . twisted root by the side of the water The sky above the hills to the west was still bright with reddish tings and lighted the woods to the eastward: {: those to the west were of course in shadow, and already dark, save in the immediate foreground For about ten minutes I had been watching the red Sky fade. when was aware of slight sound behind me. Very carefully turned my head, but at first could not see living thing. Then, against the brown hillside, between two groups of evergreens, small white object nov, ed quickly to the right and left, and ] knew that 1t was the white border on the tail of Virginia deer. The color of the animal so closely resembled that of the grass and weeds, that it was barely possible to follow it's out line. It was doe, and she stood fac ing me, her ears sticking straight out on each side of her head to catch the faintest sound which might come from my direction. But made no sound, and she stood there for more than a minute. evidently puzzled and as still as any statue could possibly have been. Then carefully drew out my pocket handkerchief, suddenly waved it back and forth and thrust it under my coat. Instantly the deer switched her tall craned her neck and took two strides in my direction.

 Now it was almost pitch dark. for ths moon had not yet risen, but l started over the mountain on a trail which knew almost by touch For some time I could hear nothing but the sound of my own footsteps. and then something hurriedly ycrossed my path and scrambled away among the leaves.
 A faint but peculiar odor told me that the creature was porcupine. and mo. ment later there came the sound of his claws on the bark of tree. I left the trail for a minute to look at him. and there on the branch of maple be crouched. his tail hanging down. and the quills of his back erected and in sil- houette against the sky felt about until found long stick and raising the end of it. touched his splny coat was glad my hand was out of the way when. with a vicious switch. he struck the stick with his tail. and the next Instant there came a pattering on the leaves as number of loose quills shaken by the effort. fell to the ground at my feet Then came the sound of his chattering teeth. and feeling sorry for the old "porky." moved along.

The horse show has been in town. With ladies on parade.
 Such clothes, such hats, such furs!
 They all looked as though they should be put in glass cases, and kept there, too fair and frail for everyday needs But it is not intended they should appear every day; this the great week of the year.
 The picture as whole was that of a mass of creamy lace and rose chiffon, set off by glitter of jewels, touch of dark fur, the vivid note of roses here and there. Pink was we'll to the fore, and there was not little light blue And black velvet, and real lace, enough to bring back a procession of grand danes of ye olden day, when regal vel vet was the dress to affect.
 The shop windows the past week have had before them deep crowd of feminine adorers, the streets fairly ob- structed by the numbers. And we mo- ticed not 6 few men, too, gazing admir-
 
 appear to like the fine feathers them selves. Let us see if we can extract from the many few special fine feath- ers--there was one exquisite gray chif- fon broadcloth wrap over white lace gown; the yoke of the wrap of gray panne velvet incrusted with pink flow CTS, the materials combining very beautifully. The wrap was very broad shouldered and very full, and in length did not quite reach to the bottom of the gown. To wear with this was as charming hat as we have seen this year, round turban of white ostrich feathers. One might suppose plumes bent to form turban would be stringE and sloose, abut it was not sU in this case, the turban symmetrical shape covered with loveliest soft white fiuffi- ness; the only trimming was some sill very tinsel across the front, imbedde1 in a plume.
 Another costume of soft colorins was warm buff of finest cloth with a long cloak of buff panne velvet. Either the lining was of pink or there was some mysterious shading of the goods to a rosy hue, for here and now one would see salmon tints, again one would swear the gown was just a plain buff. The hat was simple, yet just the thing: a felt of the shade of the gown and cloak, round sailor affair, tip

 ! Tim had-been farmer before his en- llstment, and the daily view he ob- tained during the Campaign of the broad, rich bottom lands lying along the San Saba and the Llano, awakened desire to possess a claim" among them, and led eventually to the deter imitation that he would marry and set tie down in one of the valleys as soon as possible. A couple of enlistments followed before he had accumulated sufficient funds to purchase the land he desired and buy wedding ring for his bride.

COLOSSAL STRUCTURE.
Steel Frame From France for Biggest
 Building in World.

By a recent decree of the French government the famous Galerle des Machines, on the site of the Exposi- ton Universale of 1878, is to be re- moved, the government requiring the ground for other purposes. This fact has suggested to James A. Bailey the project of purchasing the entire steel material and erecting in New York a colossal building of like character. which will be suited for every kind of great show and other exhibitions thar now have no adequate accommoda- tions.
 The site has already been selected in the vicinity Of 180th street on the proposed extension of the Subway. and the cost of the undertaking is es- timated at about $5.OO00O0.
 It is a fact that there are no large buildings in this country at present that will compare tO several abroad. such as the Rotunsla Tn Vienna, 0lym- | pia in London. or the Galerie deS Ma chimes in Paris (the last the largest of

HOW GREEK N1UtKs RAN.
Tracks and Methods of the Ancients in Their Public Exhi-
 bitions.

Tn the foot races of the ancient Greeks" says writer, the shape of the stadium caused great difference. since it was not circular, but long and nar- row, with one or both ends semicircular. Consequently, the runners had to take sharp turn at the end of each lap, while except at the turn they were run ming a straight course. Evidently this turn needed much practice, for the pie lures on the old vases show athletes practicing this one part of the race as g kind of drill, taking each movement sep arately.
 Tn early times, when all the runners turned round the same post, the turn gave opportunity for foul play. and there are stories of one competitor tripping another at the post or seizing him by the hair to prevent his winning. But later. in the shorter distances, at least each runner had his own track and post to turn round. and probably the separate courses were roped off in much the same way as they are now in sprint races. For the start elaborate arrangements were made and at Olympia the stone slabs are still to be seen, with the grooves at regular intervals that had to be toed at starting.
 Greek long-distance men ran in tho most approved style of the present day. But the sprinters apparently employed a considerable amount of arm action and took very long steps, rising we'll on to the toes. Then there was the race in armor, an even highly praised by several of the Greek writers as a valuable prep arstion for war. and which is supposed to explain the famous running charge of the Athenians at Marathon.

charge from the army had been given him, he hastened to select both land and wife, and finally established his home in a rude hacal on his "claim" in the fertile valley of the San Saba
 He had scarcely gotten we'll settled in his new home when report reached him one day that war party of Kick epoos were moving down the valley in his direction. The report seemed quite unreasonable to the old soldier, in view of the fact that the tribe had become rearly extinct, and to show how little faith he had in it's truth he took q couple of his neighbors boys and went fishing along the stream in the direc. tion in which the Indians had last heen seen
 At noon the little party halted for q midday luncheon, after which Tim disrohed for a bath in the stream. h the abseuce of bathing suit he ap- peared presently from the cover of some willow bushes, wrapped in his red saddle blanket. and on reaching the bank dropped the blanket and en- tered the rievr in a nude condition. His young compan ons watched him for awhile as he sported in the water. and then, in a spirit of fun. secreted his clothes in the forks of an adjoin- ing tree. Using some feathers shed by wild birds along the bank of the stream, they adorned his hat in Indian style and were about to hide them selves that they might the better en- joy the joke they had perpetrated, when man suddenly made his appear arce riding rapidly down the trail along the river Catching a view of the boys he called to them in excited tones. warning them of the approach oi a band of Indians Without giving . thought to their companion in the water. the boys hastened to mount their horses and immediately galloped away towards their homes.

On hearing the warning cry of the nan Tim. now thoroughly alarmed, bastened from the water intent on hurrying home for the protection of his wife. To his surprise and confus. lon. he was unable to find either horse or clothing. and at last. in utter des- peration, wrapped himself hurriedly in his red saddle blanket. placed his dec. orased hat on his head and, seiziny his rife. started down the trail on the run.
 He had not gone far whena turn ln the trail brought him in view of farm wagon coming ia from a side trail. A couple of women occupying the back seat of the vehicle at once became ter- rifed at the sight of the supposed Tn- dian. and the driver. no less alarmed. made a hurried shot from his rife at the old soldier and then. turning the horses. galloped away over the prairie as rapidly as possible.
