On the shore at the beach they left the
luncheon, as they intended TO build fire when
they became cold and hungry.
Rufc had brought an AK with him, and
now cut as many holes in the ice as they had
"tip-ups"
These holes were cut about forty rods from
the place where they intended to eat their
luncheon. Twenty rods away, at one side OF
their fishing place, was some open water,
where several warm springs flowed into the
lake.
The fishing lines were arranged in their re-
spectlve places, and soon the bits of bright
rag began to bob in the air; but Phil's disap
pointment was great, to find that the fish
which were disturbing the lines were only
clubs small, ,yoracious fish, abound in, the
Adirondack lakes, and are SO small and bony
as to be scarcely worth the cooking.
But the brothers saved the larger ones.
They were heartily tired Of diet of salt
pork, and fresh fish, though they were only
| chubs, were not TO be despised.
Soon, however, Rufe called that he had
caught whiteiish, and, when the better fish
once began biting the fun went merrily on.
A school of whitefish seemed to have found
the bait, and by noon the fishermen had
caught twenty of them, from half pound
to two pounds apiece in weight.
The two Forsythes were ready for fire
and their luncheon. The lines were arranged
tnred were left lying on the ice, and the
three fishermen SLATED back to the shore.
Ruie soon built fire and heated some cof-
| fee. The brothers took off their skates and
stretched themselves on evergreen boughs
around the blaze.
They lunehed more leisurely as they knew
the fishing lines were not idle, and might
catch several fish before they returned to
| them.
Phil and his brother were drinking the last
drops Of hot coffee, when Rufe uttered an
exclamation.
Look there!" he cried, pointing to the
spot where they could see their 'tip-ups."
The brothers looked, and saw two small
animals, which had just emerged from the
open water, crawling toward the fishing place.
| For a moment they watched them in silence.
They're otters," announced Rufe land
they've scented those fish we left ON the
ice"
The three FISHERMEN saw the offers begin
to tear and eat the frozen fish,
Phil saw the much-prized substitute for pork

ton. Moreover, he had strong desire for
an otter pelt. His skates were quickly strap

wings, and, looking up, saw that the, big
bird had returned and was flying Just above
him.
Again Phil fired and this time the bird
came plunging to the snow, a broad wing
hanging broken al its side.
When the wounded bird struck the crust
but yard or two from him. Phil saw that 1t
was an immense owl, snowy white IN color.
1t was but slightly hurt, and when its big,
savage eyes saw the boy, it rushed at him,
striking with beak, claws and uninjured wing.
Phil had had no time to put loaded cart.

the great bind nearly made him lose his loot,
ing on the slippery crust; but he managed
to protect his face, and, watching his oppor-
tunity, soon struck the owl heavy blow with
the barrels of his gun. lie followed up his
advantage and the assaiant was vanquished
When Phil carried his prize in triumph to
he cottage, Rufe Robbins pronounced it to
be the great snowy owl, a bird so large and
savage that it contends with the bal eagle for
the mastery of the feathered tribes of the
North woods.
His encounter with the owl excited Phil to
seek more adventures TO enliven their mo-
notonous life. Since there was no shooting
at this season. and panthers and lynxes were
so scarce, he proposed fishing expedition :.
! Rufe rather discouraged this idea, for it
was against the law. to kill trout, and the
whitefsh could rarely be taken except in
nets; moreover it was difficult to get proper
bait in the winter time.
Dul no ulHcuilteS coulu Qeter Inn from
an attempt, and he busted himself in pulling
apart decayed logs until he had gathered
| grubs sufficient for bait.
One of the favorite haunts of the white
fish was near a sand beach, which, in the
summer time, showed yellow strip of gravel
along the lake shore, about mile from the
cottage. Here Phil decided to begin his fish
ing Rufe helped him make number of Tip
ups, by which arrangements the fishermen are
enabled to set lines in many holes through the
ice.
Through, a hole, near the top Of stake
two feet long, is loosely put another stick,
and fastened 80 it will not quite balance, but
its ends will work up and down. like see
saw board. To the heavier end Of this cross
bar is attached bit of red rag, and to the
lighter and higher end is tied the fshline
The two-foot stake is fastened into the ice,
close to the fishing-hol and while the line is
undisturbed the rag remains lowered; but,
when a weight attaches itself to the line, the
rag is lifted into the air and the fisherman
/ knows a fish is pulling at the tackle.
1 A recent thaw had left the ice devoid OF
snow and quite smooth. The two men and
Phil put on their skates. took with them six OF
eight "tip-ups' and Pills shotgun, and skated

But Pills ardor was not lessened. He
knew himself to be fast skater, and, II ne
could get within ten rods OF the animals, he
thought charge of heavy shot would stop
them.
The young hunter had not taken two strides
ON the ice, when the offers saw him and dash
ed away toward the water. But though their
thought impossible, yet the skates shot over
the ice much faster.
John had seen his brother in skating con-
tests on the city ponds, but never before had
he seen him put forth such exertions.
In an instant the boy had covered half the
distance; but the watchers on the. shore saw
that the offers were not more than SIX or
eight rods from open water, :,
"He can't hurt either of those creatures,
commented Rufe, but at any rate, he's
stopped their eating the fish,
The offers were not more than twenty feet
from safety, and Phil was still twelve or
fifteen rods away.
The shotgun few to his shoulder, and,
without checking his speed, he discharged
the barrels in quick succession.
Rufe could see that the shot fell short, and
Clipped up the ice several yards from the
scraambling animals. But the shot must have
rebounded from the CLASSY surface with fatal
force for one of the offers leaped into the
air and fell dead just at the endge of the
ice, while the other, badly wounded, managed
to founder into the water
The men on the shore set up shout OF
congratulation. Phil let the momentum of
his race carry him to where the dead otter
lay. He picked it up, and then, crawling to
the edge of the ice, looked into the water
where The other animal had disappeared.
He took his jack-knife from his pocket, and
left it at the exact spot where the, otter
had rolled from the ice Then he returned
to where his companions were awaiting him. ;,

usually spent the late summer and early au-
tumn at this summer home; but In winter
the cottage was left In charge OF guide and
his wife, who lived in the kitchen portion of
the house.
In the winter of 1sS9-1S9O, John Forsythe,

Young Mr.. Forsythe would soon be with them,
to stay during the rest of the winter:
With John came his younger brother,
Philip Forsythe, boy of fifteen, strong and
healthy, WHO was permitted to leave his school,
books, chiefly to crafty his own wishes and
to furnish companionship to his Invalid
brother
A great fire of logs was lit in the dining
room fireplace, and in the same room was set
up the one stove which the cottage could
boast, besides the cooking range. These two
fires made the dining room fairly warm, even
in the severe cold of an Adirondack winter.
Out Of the dining-room opened small bed
room, IN which tie brothers slept. This room
contained no. stove or fireplace, and they had
to sleep under vast piles of bedclothes, in
true German fashion.
Their life was monotonous. Most of their
time was spent in keeping warm, and com
fortably fed and clothed. They both became
expert in darning socks and mittens; but
darning mittens was not suited to the active
limbs of Philip Forsythe, and in March, when
the weather became somewhat milder and
one or two thaws had caused a strong crust
to form over the snow, Phil would shoulder
his gun and take long tramps through the
snowy woods.
There was no game to be shot at this season
of the year; but the. boy always had hope Of
