A Freshman.

A freshman who had entered one Of
the large universities, and was not
much accustomed to the ways either
Of institutions Of learning or Of cities,
was returning late one evening from q
lecture. When near his lodgings he
was halted by two masked men, who
held him up" in true metropolitan
style.
One of the men leveled the conven-
tional revolver at the young man.
while the other relieved him of his
watch, pocketbook and other valuables.
He made no mention Of the matter
to anybody at the time, but few days
later he reported 1t to the president Of
the university.
"It wasn't a great DEAL" he said,
"but 1t was more than l like to lose,
and I think it's an outrage to treat q
boy that way"
"Why didn't you tell me Of this soon-
err" asked the president.
II supposed they would bring tho
things back to me next morning." he
answered. ut was couple of sopho-
mores hazing me, wasn't it?'

Austria has come to the rescue Of the

cause a futter. He is known in the
official records as Vincent Alfred Gull

Prince Vincent Is % years old and is
described as one Of the representative
aristocrats of his generation. He fig.

Memories of Grant

The recent death of DR.. George F.
Shrady, who was the last survivor of
General Grants surgeons, lends added
pathetic interest to DR.. Shrady's Mem.
cries of General Grants Last Days, u
publication of which begins in the May
Century. These memories will give a
new and very intimate picture of Gen
eral Grant las he appeared to one who
was in close and friendly contact with
him during the last months of his life, y
when "he was no longer the man OF
arms to be dreaded, or the President
to be illuminated, but the brave and
helpless sufferer to be pitied and ad
mired."

DIGGING A GRAVE FOR HIM.

Intended Victim Escapes and One Of
Plotters Killed by Mistake.
A story of treachery followed by
poetic retribution is told In a dispatch
from Lucknow to a London newspa-
per.
story goes, realizing that be could not
reach Lucknow before dark and fear
ing the dangers of the road, stopped
at the house Of the police inspector,
native official, and applied for shelter
for the night.
II am carrying a considerable sum
of money" said he, "and in view Of
the dangers Of the country desire to
have your protection until 1 can re-
sumo my Journey by daylight"
The inspector made him welcome,
gave him water and food, finally taxi
ing him to a sleeping room, where he
left him alone.
AS the night wore on the traveller
was stricken with sleeplessness. Pres
emily he heard voices near his window
and strange sounds Of labor. He got
up and looked out. Hts eyes, used to
the greater darkness Of the room, dis
cerned two men digging in a field ut
the back Of the house. He strained his
ears to catch what they were saying
and realized in few moments that
they were digging a grave for him.
They were in a plot with the inspector
of police to murder him for his money
and hide his body away before day.
| light.
In panic he stole through the house
and crept out by back door, He DASH
ed through the village as noiselessly
as he could and mile or SO down the
road climbed a tree, where he sat in
safety In the shadow Of the foliage
until daybreak came. Then as pa
troll came along he slipped down to
ground and told his story to the COM
handing officer
All hands returned to the village and
there the first news that greeted them
was the mysterious disappearance Of
the police inspector. The traveller To-
Gated for them the grave that had been
intended to receive him. The soldiers
opend the trench and there was found
the body of the police inspector, horri-
bly, hacked.
The arrest of two men who had been
seen with him late the previous even
ing followed and then the whole case
beanie simple. After arranging with
his accomplices the plot to rob and
murder the traveller the police inspect
or started to get drunk while they
were busy digging the grave. In this
condition the idea struck him that he
would go In and do the killing himself
and SO skim the cream off the booty i'll
stead Of dividing evenly. STOPPING
over the bed to grip his victim by the
throat, he must have fallen forward
and passed quickly into a drunken
slumber.
When the two accomplices outside
got the grave finished they began to
wonder at the inspectors failure to
turn up. Entering the house, they arm
ed themselves with the inspectors ga
Der and creeping into the room attack
ed the man In the bed, literally hack
ing him to death.
Then they struck light to look for
the plumber and discovering their mis-
take had nothing left to do but bury
the murdered man In the grave they
had dug.

Handsome Dog. Arc Good Dogs.


In the most characteristic of English
dogs, with the English bulldog as an
unfortunate exception Of glazing sort,
common sense principles In the canon
Of judging are distinctly marked. In
the case of hounds any good eye can
pick out the best animals. This was
.uriously illustrated not long since in
private when an artist taken over one
Of the bigger kennels of foxhounds
picked out the prize and pedigree dogs
one after the other. He went purely
by his own sense Of what was strong
and comedy, of strength and beauty
met together" as Shelley says in a
very different connection. - London

through ignorance or neglect has to wait
until summer, when the supply is large
and the price low. Not everyone can do
this, and no one can do it unless be takes
proper care of his fowls and gives them
food containing the essential egg-produc-
ing ingredients which, when running at
large, the hens can supply themselves to a
large extent in summer. There is no ma
