cHAMoIs DEFEATS EAGLES,
warlike Birds Attempt to Destroy
Mountain Creature, But Are
Beaten Of.

A desperate combat between two
eagles and a chamois was witnessed
on a s~now-covered mountain near Flu
shi one day lately, relates a Geneva
correspondent to the London Express.
One of the young eagles attacked a
young channels, when it was charged
by the sire of the herd. which was
some distance away. At this point an
other eagle appeared, but the chamois
repeatedly beat them both off by fierce
thrusts of its antlers.
The struggle continued for half an
hour, after which the birds took to
fight. The chamois remained immov-
able with head erect, gazing defiantly
at the soaring birds until they were
lost to sight.
Some sportsmen next day found the
spot where the heroic combat had ia
ken place Uttered with feathers ant
fur, and the snow was sDlashed will
blood.

FOLLOW LEADER TO DEATH
Sheep Deliberately Plunge Into Frozen
Stream After Head of
Flock.

1.-THE most striking example of fol-
lowing a leader into the jaws of death
| ever saw took place in Kent county"
said a Kent county farmer, according
to the Baltimore Herald.
"Ex-Sheriff Plummer," he continued,
had a flock of II sheep, which. for
some unaccountable reason, deter
mined to go from one pasture to an
other. To make the journey it was
necessary to cross the creek IN the
ice. Sure enough, the old buck of the
flock walked cautiously out on the
weakened ice. When he was about
mid-stream it gave way and he
plunged in. The other sheep, instead
of returning to the shore, which they
could have done. deliberately, and, as
the lawyers would put it, with malice
a~forethought,' walked into the hole in
the ice made by their leader and were
drowned. Nothing but sheep would
have ever been fool enough to be
guilty of such a performance. There
was possibly some excuse for the fool
hardy old buck, but l "a think Of nc
extenuating circumstances in the CASE
Of the Others"

The great actress was recuperating
her health by living in the country
and doing common work.
Among other things she had the

She was going to do 1t with her own

1t was much better than having her
jewels stolen.
And decidedly newer.
The dealer in notions weighed out
the lime and the great actress held
out her pail to receive it.
But the dealer insisted that he was
giving her short weight and reached
again for the scoop to fill up the scale
pan.
However, the great actress would
not let him. but dumped the snowy
powder into her receptacle, saying:

Having said which, she laughed
heartily and told the press agen.

Perhaps another Gloss may be called

The writer has personally known sev-
eral OF this kind which melted into
thin sir as soon as the prosaic shore
was reached.
There seems to BE- something about
the environment OF thc ocean and the
appointments OF a steamship, and the
negligee in which most Of the pa.
senger6 appear, which alters the val
uos OF men and women. ,
