All, a grain of good luck-rathe- a
factor from a merciful Providence.
The distracted trombone players
shining instrument chances to attract
the attention of the charging beast
as ii lies there upon the tan bark.
and he halts long enough to send 1t
whirling after its gifted owner, as If
to emphasize his utter contempt for
all military bands in general, and
this one which had endeavored to
play his funeral march that afternoon
in particular.
Even this small thing is a point in
favor of the runner.
The time is too limited for Jack to
head the animal as is his earnest de-
sire; but he has been able to cut
down the brute's lead considerably,
which may count for something ere
this scene in the exciting drama has
closed.
AS he runs, Travers shouts at the
top of his voice. hoping in this man
ner to attract the notice of the bull
toward himself.
Under ordinary circumstances he
might be able to accomplish this, but
there is now so great clamor on
all sides that Taurus pays not the
slightest heed.

to describe; and while SO great an
amount of damage has been done by
the furious beast, it has not been two
minutes since he burst from his pen,
to scatter CONSERVATION over the vast
audience gathered to pay their re-
spects to the Captain-General of Cuba.

witnessing a bullfight.
Straight on gallops the beast, with

himself 10 the fore
Perhaps Jessie sees his brave eff

others have fled in dire dismay. II

SAVING A CoAfRApE.

Stories of affection and apparent rea-
son among wild animals have divided
the "nature-writers' into two schools.
One believes that animals act merely
from instinct; the other holds that the
dumb brute feels and reasons. In "The
Life of a Scotch Naturalist" Mr..
Smiles quotes from the journal OF
Thomas Edward the story of how
little flock of terms rescued n wounded
companion which the naturalist had
shot.
/ fired, and he came down with n
broken wing, screaming as he fell into
the water. The report of the gun, to-
gether with his cries, brought together
the party lie had left. in order that
they might ascertain the cause of the
alarm.
After surveying their wounded
brother round and round, as he was
drifting unwittingly toward the shore
with the flowing tide. they came flying
in body to the spot where / stood,
and rent the air with their screams.
These they continued to utter. regard
less of their own Individual safety,
until began to make preparations for
receiving the approaching bird. l
could already see that it was q beau
tiful adult specimen. and 1 expected
in few moments to have it in my
possession. since l was not very far
from the waters edge.
While matters We're in this position
l beheld, TO my utter astonshment,
two of the unwounded terms take hold
of their disabled comrade, one Mt each
wing. lift him out of the water and
bear him out scaward. They were
followed by two other birds
After having carried him about six
or seven yards they gently let him
down again, and the two who had
hitherto been inactive took him up.
In this way they continued to carry
him alternately until they had con-
veyed him to rock at considerable
distance. upon which they landed him
in safety.
l made toward the rock. wishing 10
obtain the prize which had been so
unceremoniously snatched from my
grasp. 1 was observed. however, by
the terms. and instead of four, had in
n short time whole swarm about me.
On my near approach to the rock /
once more beheld two of them take
hold of the wounded bird as they had
done before, and bear him out 10 sea
i'll triumph, far beyond my reach.

A RESCUE ON vEsuvIus.

Professor r. V. Matteuci, director of
the Royal Observatory ON Mount We
suvius, in his recent most interesting
account of the life and duties of his
perilous post, narrates one little Incl
dent which occurred but short time
ago, at the beginning of the great vol
cano's present period of activity.
Many tourists ascended the mountain
In the late afternoon or evening, to
behold at night the malign splendor
of the red-hot. crawling lava streams.
Following one such party, in the hope
of begging pennies, came little orphan
boy from Resina, at the foot of the
mountain. His name was Giovanni
Olivieti. The tourists fingered long,
and Giovanni, tired and sleepy, threw
himself down in a vineyard for nap,
and was not missed. At dawn piteous
cries for help were heard by some
young men who had remained all night
on the mountain, and they hastened
to discover whence they came.
awakened by the increasing heat
says Professor Matteuci, "the boy had
found that he was entirely surrounded
by streams of molten metal, which
however, were fast cooling in many
places. and had already grown a con
siderable crust here and there.
"Soon n crowd gathered and stood
entirely helpless some distance off, the
women screaming, weeping and pray
ing for the doomed boy"
Some one, however. had presence o.
mind enough to send for Signor Mat
teuci. who in turn sent for Pasoualt
Pacifico, an experienced Vesuviar
guide, and the two men, at the immi
nent peril of a dreadful death, sought
out possible path of rescue.
'.It may remind You people of @
treacherous ice-crust-but how differ
cnt, and how infinitely more terrible
with liquid fire below instead of water
The heat was killing. With wet cloths
protecting our faces, and with burning
boots, scorched hands and smoking
clothes, we made our way across ths
bending crust of lava, seized III,
trembling child, and bore him away t,
safety. We did not dare, however, t.
carry him in our arms. but distributed
the weight by making him run in from
| of us where we directed.
$50 tremendous was the lava flow
that in ne place, what with flowin,
and coolir and flowing and coollni

| Of $50 feet"

die there; but he asks no better fate.

Edison pined Without Dress Suit.

Thomas A. Edison was riding on the
cars the other day in New Jersey
The train was passing the country
residence of II. NICK. Twombley.
Just previously the inventor had been
reading a part of the printed contro-
versy going on about the right of a
$15-a-week-man to wear a dress suit.
"Once l was a great guest over
here" he said. pointing his finger over
toward the big house. THAT stable
there looks like high school building.
But, as l was saying, was especially
invited to dinner there one evening.
When | appeared without dress suit
case, the butler who received me
stood aghast.
My host showed me to a room,
and then summoned valet He
stood before me. obsequious, smiling.
Will you have your bath now, SIR
he asked, and dress. or will you
waltz
'Dress! l answered, 'ain't I dress
ed now? How many more clothes
would you have me put on? And I
have had bath once to-day and that
is quite a sufficiency--quite.' And |
sat down to dinner in my old Prince

PONY SAVES GIRL.

Miss Genevieve Reddington, a
twelve-year-old girl. of Cullen, Okla
homa, attributes her escape from being
killed by two panthers in a canyon
near there. to her pony. which set upon
the beasts which attacked the girl and
drove them away by blows from its
boofs. Miss Reddington was riding
through the canyon when two large
panthers rushed upon her from the
underground. Her pony stopped at
sight of the beasts, which dragged the
girl from the saddle, almost stripped
her of her clothing, and We're rolling
her over and over on the ground when
the pony suddenly ran at them and
began kicking. One of the blows from
the pony's hoofs struck the girl on the
head, rendering her unconscious. A
few minutes later, when she regained
consciousness, the pony was standing
quietly by her side, while the panthers
had disappeared.
