This, however, became alarming, par

and the parish officers there caused in

ers for driving fwiously on the putnic

HUNTED BY A BUFFALO.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
N~%~~~~~o~

The time has gone by for hunting
the sport was followed too closely for
continuance. The pursuit of the game
was exciting, but when the buffalo
turned hunter, and the object Of his
search was the sportsman, the interest
in the outcome of the chase was greatly
heightened. The author Of The Faith
err Of st. Kilda." Il. Campbell, tells in
the pages Of his book how he engaged
in one of these double-headed encoun-
ters in the country Of the Sasbatche-
wan River.
The sight Of the huge monsters ca
rcening madly along with fiery eyes
md tossing names, followed sometimes
by an eagle-feathered savage, mounted
on strangely deCked-out pony, with
the scalp Of his latest enemy flying be-
hind him, utterly demoralized my
steady going, faithful nag, and he ran

MENELIK II. AND HIS PEOPLE.
Mighty Monarch of tbyssinia who

Few mightier monarchs than Mcnclill
II. of Abyssinia ever swayed the desti-
mics of people. Throughout the vast
territory Of the AbySsinian highlands

lions of subjects, laws also to horfcs

trlbeSmen without the confines of his
kingdom, Ills court includes no coun-
cllors Alone throughout the long years
Of his reign Menelik has dealt with all
domestic and foreign affairs of State

Of the fcudal absolutiSm exercised and
enjoyed by medieval rulers is about TO
disappear beneath encroachng waves
of civilization, which long spare moth

Adds Abeda, Menelik's capital, bring
news that he has formed a cabinet and
published the appointment of ministers
Of war, finance, justice, foreign affairs
and commerce.
And this change has come not from
the pressure Of any party or faction
within his kingdom. for such do not
exist; but out Of the fount of his own
wisdom-a wisdom so sound as to
prove him most worthy descendant Of
the sage Hebrew King Menelik claims

were necessary than the statesmanlfkc
way in which he has dealt with Jealous
diplomats, and the martial Skill with
which, at Adua in 90, he defeated the
flower of the Italian army and won
from Italy an honorable truce.
Whether or not the claim of Menelill
that he is lineally descended from II
son supposed to have been born to the
Queen Of Shcba and King Solomon of
old is true, and there is no real reason
/ to doubt it, it is certain that in race
type Abyssnians plainly resemble the
sons Of Israel. crossed and modified
with Coptic, IIamitc and Ethiopian

the most orthodox Hebrew to some OF

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 1.-The

The decision of the court To this effect
