HUNTER CARRIED
ON DEER'S HORNS

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Nov. 49,
W. 3. Maiden of st. Paul had the
thrilling experience of being carried
through the forest On the antlers of a
big buck, which attacked him. He,
with Charles Wixey, went between
Fish Hook and String Lakes, when
they came upon a splendid specimen.
They separated to trap the animal and
Wixey fired, wounding it. Maiden
was about to fire when he fell into a
morass and found himself with moth
ing but a knife. The buck came al
him and Maiden's slashes enraged
him. In making a vigorous thrust
Maiden dropped the knife.
The moose, ripping through his
outer coat, caught one of the prongs
of its horns in his hunting shirt.
Maiden felt himself lifted and lying
crosswise on the moses antlers. The
animal started on rush through the
forest. Maiden feared to drop off,
lest the animal turn and gore him.
Finally the moose broke into a clear
ing, and some distance away Maiden
saw another hunter and yelled to at,
tract his attention.
The man allowed the maddened
animal to pass him, and as its pace
was slackened he was able to take a
careful aim and fired bullet so that
1t would break its shoulder. As the
moose came to its knees Maiden
leaped off and the hunter cut his
throat. Maiden was not hurt

Without my STIR.
Most of the people whom Helen met
upon her arrival were of her own sex,
so that she did not feel called upon
10 make special eNertiuns to please
them; but she was naturally chez iul
and happy with every one, and the
other matters Of which Mrs. Roberts
had talked took on such vast proper
tons before her mind t.at Il WAS a
relief 10 her 10 put them aside ana
enjoy herself for a while in her usual
way. Helen was glad that most OF the
men were to arrive later, so that sAe
might make her appearance before
them under the most favorable cir
cuustances. When she heard The dis
tant whistle of the afternoon train a
couple Of hours later. it was with that
thought that she retired TO her room
10 rest before dressing.
Aunt Polly. following the plan of
accustoming the girl 10 a proper style
Of living, had engaged a maid 10 at

found therefore that her trunks were

and flung herself down upon the bed
to think.
Helen had imbibed during her Sun
day school days tie usual formulas of
dogmatic religion. but upon matters Of
morality her ideas We're OF the vaguest
possible description. The guide of her
life had always been her instinct for
happiness, her genial sense of
youth" She had never formulated
any rule of life 10 herself. but that
which she sought was joy. primarily
for herself, and incidentally for other
people, because unhappy people were

had brought before her mind. II was
that principle chiefly by which she
tested them.
To the girls eager nature, keenly

before her eyes was so intoxicating
that again and again as she thought
of IL il made her tremble and burn. So
far as Helen could see at that moment,
a marriage with this Mr.. Harrison
would mean the command Of every
source of happiness: and upon a scale
so magnificent, so beitting Of every
thing she had known before, that she
shrank from IL, as something impos-
sible and unnatural Again ana again
she buried her heated brow in her
hands and muttered: Il ought TO have

He pleaded guilty and the court
brought !n a verdict in accordance with
that plea. II would have gone hard
with the embryo admiral but for the

Kentucky. Again he pleaded guilty and
again the court brought in a verdict
