the voice of Alice shrieked:

He's mad."
Mother Boggs needed no
such urging. The mere sight
of Rolly's frothing jaws had
been enough. Mother Boggs
was more than plump. and
she was more than sedate;
but, nevertheless, she gave an
exhibition of agility astound-
ing in one of her years. The
nearest refuge was the old
apple tree, and she swished to
that with a speed born of des-
peration, holding her modest
gray skirt knee high. She
even gave a spring onto the
first low, strong branch, and
clung there, painting, lifting
each foot in turn, as she
looked down in horror to find
herself within leaping distance
of the dangerous creature.
She had cause for fear. The
maddened beast sprang again
and again, and at last caught
her skirt between his viselike
jaws.
Climb higher, Mother.
Hurry" screamed Alice from
the nearby beech.
Even in that moment Of
grave danger, Mother Boggs
cast upon her daughter a glare
OF reproach for that super
fluous advice. Nevertheless,
she climbed higher, dragging
up with her the jerking mus
cularity of forty-pound bull
pup.

herself freed from her clog.

LETTING THE BISHOP IN.

The late Bishop Williams, of Con necticut, was very fond of children, and it was always a joy ;o us youngsters, says a writer in liar per's Magazine, when he came for his visit to my fathers parish. His anecdotes and stories enli,ened the household. Once, when he was staying with us, he told the follow ing story:
 One Sunday morning, just after breakfast, 1 reported to the rector's study, where l was soon followed by his four-year-old son, who climb ed up on my knee and began to talk. Suddenly the little fellow looked up into my face and said: Bishop, do 'oo want to see my pig gy book?"
 "'Yes, indeed, said I. So the child slid down and started to get the book When half way across the room a sudden idea seemed to strike him. and running back and putting one hand on my knee, he looked up in my face and shook his little forefinger at me. whispering.

 Men now devoting their time to the chase after the 'diggings' are evidently in the best of faith, but must have been misinformed. I base my belief on the fact that sev- eral parties have secured the dis trict, and have located nothing, and the further fact that MT. Firth, the agent of the Hudson's Bay company at Fort McPherson. thoroughly re- liable and honorable man, never saw the alleged discoverer or any of his party in the district. nor met any natives or others who saw any such party in the Mackenzie coun- try or vicinity about the time the discovery is reported to have been made.

ported. MT. Firth has marvellous memory. He remembers nothing of the alleged Wiley party.
 "The story is that Wiley and party, all railway surveyors, went down the Mackenzie r years ago, and, in crossing from the coast com ing back to the Mackenzie, made shortcut and struck rich pay while on a creek on the west of the Mac kenzie delta. The men, the story runs, then left the country. none of them ever coming back met the party which went up the Por- cupine this year. They claimed to have the exact longitude and lati- tude, to have gotten it from Wiley through a reliable connection They seemed to dislike it when l laughed at the idea of their going after the alleged lost mine.
 "McRae was there after the prop erty year or two, and went through Dawson recently. He claimed to have had the exact longitudinal and latitudinal locations secured from Wiley in Colorado, but he did not find the mine. l was surprised to see he claimed on top of his ac- knowledged failure in making the find that he was going back. l noticed that he claimed also that he knew where to locate Wiley in Colorado.
