Chicago. Nov. S.-Search for the

the woman by carrying her on his
back. After drifting more than a
block both sank with last despairing
cries for help.

most equivalent to cancelling it alto gether There are at least ten chances to one that the state of the atmosphere at that particular moment will not be propitious for the difficult and perhaps dangerous enterprise.
 There is another regulation which If not modified may initiate against the success of the great aviation week. Contrary to custom at most sporting meetings if only one competitor starts to seek to win the prize he will get none. and if two start it is only the first who will be rewarded, even if there are half dozen prizes at tached to the event, as is the case in the long-distance competition In no case will the last man receive a prize. even if being alone he is first with a ''fy over," or second, or third, etc And it may happen that the pilot on starting will imagine he will be fol lowed by dozen others. He may achieve a great feat by remaining in the air very long time, beating all records of time, distance and altitude. yet If strong breeze should then spring up and prevent the other avia- tors from starting he would get noth- ing. It is, however, true that the controlling committee is empowered by the regulations to permit, if it thinks fit, the simultaneous flight of two or several machines.
 Then there is the Gordon Bennett cup, which is the great international event of the week, though all the other competitions are open to avia- tors of every country without excep- tion. In this case there is no restric- tion concerning the payment of the money prize of s5,00O to the success. ful pilot, even if he should have a fly over" or concerning the award ing of the cup to his club; but the chances of all the competitors being equally favored by the state of the at. mosphere are very small The cham. pions of the various nations, and there are three English, three French, three Italian, one American and one Aus. trian, are to start one after the other in the order of their lots In the case of all the Il champions presenting themselves, and of only one being per mitted in the air at time, the com petition would last at least five and one-half hours, because it is not ex- cessive to allow half an hour for the start and the flight of 1215 miles. It is therefore probable that several champions will be permitted to be in the air at the same time, especially as 1t Is extremely rare that there are five and one-half hours in a day. be- tween a. m. and p. m., during which the atmosphere is sufficiently calm to permit of successful aeroplane flights.

Westward from the Cascade of Nunobik, through the ever-shifting tracery-work of pines and wild aga leas, you can see, if you would climb a quarter of mile, on a spring day, stretch of land that looks more like dream than the actual solid footstool of God
 That was her home; there we saw her. Her environment was common her dress, her cottage, the people about her,-yes, the people especially. But all these common things, because of her, seemed to me as if saw them on the canvas of Millet or Rembrandt. She was part of the landscape, and if we say of the ensemble that it is just like a picture, l do not know whether the Higher Artist would take 1t as compliment or not.
 Describe her? Better ask me to pet rify dream. Her lips? Ohi-one folds his hands on his left side when he speaks of them.
 Not satisfied with her success in this, her fair masterpiece, Nature placed her in the rustic surrounding to heighten all the charms of the girl through the touch of that potent ma gician called surprise.

in love with a woman as he was with Art. Take my word for it, he had that something that goes into the making of true artist, that all-ab- sorbing something which made him by turns fool and a god; he had that idolatrous adoration for the beau tiful; that contempt of everything common. In order to picture his meeting with the girl, you must fancy an artist facing Art made flesh and beating in a woman's heart. In addi- tion to this, you must take into ac- count that poignant sense of surprise as keen as that of man who finds diamond in the dirt

 That? Why, that is nothing but a shadow; that is nothing but pie ture, like picture on temple wall, "a picture of a goddess, ycu know. One can look at a picture, not the goddess-the original is too dag zling!"

 Twice winter chained water; twice spring set it free and gave it songs; twice chrysanthemums decked their little garden; and they famed away two summers. They were too much in love to think of marriage-if that were possible.

Mountain Lions Numerous.

The cowboys employed by S. B.
Hartman on the ranges near Maher
report that mountain lions are very
plentiful in that section and are not
only killing many deer and other game
animals, but also cattle and horses.
One man claims to have seen not less
than twelve different lion tracks dur.
ing one days ride.
It is undoubtedly fact that these
animals do more toward exterminat-
ing the game than do the hunters,
besides causing the stockmen quite
heavy losses in many instances. The
state ought to take a hand in the
destruction Of this and other pests by
offering liberal bounties, and It is hoped
that the bill now before the legislature
to that effect will become . law
