It came across the min er's eyes and nose; then the head was wrenched quickly, violently backward. The hands, surprised, tried to cling, but failed. They loosened, waved wild ly, clutched at the air, and then, with the body and head, were overtoppled. Headlong, twisting, turning, the man Was hurled to the swallowing abyss. The light on the hat gave forth the sound of a flame in the wind and was (one--plucked oft by the rushing dark less!

The stillness of midnight, a seeming attribute of masses of shadows that crouched from the waning moon, be hind the rocks, the brush and every salient thing, was timidly broken. The creak in the hinges of the mine cabin door sounded weirdly clear--a wail, as omen, thought the Indian girl. An awesome darkness filled the silent shed. Susie, on her knees, went creep ing, feeling with her hands for the edge of the shaft. There she clutched the windlass post, and leaned her fteast against it "Prank," she cooed, in a low, sweet tone that wavered with the effort made to keep it cheerful, "Frank, my sun shine--Frank." No sound save that a niece of rock. •Omewhere down along the pick- sSarred walls of the shaft, loosened an*} Ml, down and down, striking the sides with diminishing sounds, till a %-hostly •Oho announced Its bottom rest.

Pressing her heart against the post Pfsla, to still its audible thumping, she ' sat a moment in dread. Suddenly, then, strengthened by the thought that lie might be there, wounded, perhaps, and needing her sadly, down in the gloom of the yawning mine, she groped her way to the ladder. Moan ing of Instinct, there in the darkness, She slowly descended, down and down . ift the mocking, echoing tomb. In the utter blackness her hands tfljscovered his face, and she cried aloud, till the shaft was full of an guish. , A boneless mass. Inert and fitted to the jagged surface of the loaded buck et of ore, into which he had fallen, she found. His head hung limply athwart the bucket's edge; the eyes, which her lingers sought, were closed. Beside him, kneeling, she sank, to nioan and croon, combing the dark, curling hair with her fingers, kissing the face--and seeing nothing. She fancied that a beat, slight and feeble, lived in his breast. Calling his name, She coaxed and wooed, and then, de spairing, stood up and prayed for h*lp. "God, if the Indians, too, have souls," »h« said, "give my aching soul to him --let him live! Give me something, Great Eternal Spirit--something of hope!" ' With an esoteric summoning of a marvelous strength, she lifted the drooping form; the arms and head fell listlessly across her shoulders. Then to the ladder! And with all the pow- er of arms and limbs, thewed by des peration against the giant task, she started toiling up and up, like one who shoulders up a crushing weight, to gain the air and freedom. Her palms were burning, her knees shook and trembled, her breath came in gasping long clutches painful to bear; the darkness swam thickly about--she was stifling, smothered, congested with blood, yet she forced her way aloft. Across the floor of the cabin at last she fell with the burden. The limpish arms went dangling at random about her neck in a ghastly embrace chat thrilled her keenly with joy. Exhaust ed she lay, fondling the hands and face, trying to rub him back to life, till the chill of long-dead clay was own®, and the face seemed carved in stone. Through the night, bending above htm, she poured out a fountain of her love and grief alternately with all the softness of her Indian coolngB and dence of her mellowed RngHnh 8yi- iles.

A shadow, thrown by the setting sun, betrayed a presence. Dumbly she raised her eyes to look. "Ugh," said a tall, granting Washoe back. She turned away her head again. "Mahala, do you wait for Mingo?" said the man. "Johnny Shag is big ger chief. Mingo shall never come." She looked In silence on the ashes of the wood burned the day before. "Mahala," he added, "one, two moons Jonny Shag come to take you the trail to my wigwam. Why not any talk? Too long, you sabbee? Mahala waits for Mingo. Better look out Mahata; Jonny Shas is warrior. To-day you better talk." "One moon, let «ie think," she wearily answened. "Let me wait one moon." "One moon, yet. Jonny Shag will wait. Many things come before the moon again." He glided Hway, and again her head sank wearily down. Mingo, the Washoa, stealthily re turning to Chloride hill, kept cautious ears and eyes awide, to learn the re sult of the murder at the mine. Susie, he rightly conjectured, would have guessed the truth. He avoided the wikiup, but remained in the town. Pa tience with many an Indian is a virtue. On a crisp, cool day, while Mingo talked with a group of bucks on a cor ner, Shag, on a pony and armed with a rifle, rode up behind. Raising his gun, he deliberately shot Mingo through the body, and escaped to the hills. The thoroughly astounded camp of ficials promptly gave pursuit, but. all In vain. Friends and relations of the dead man assisting, the country was scoured, skillfully, cunningly. Canyons, valleys, the shoulders of the moun tains, were traversed and searched, but nothing availed. Shag enjoyed ev ery advantage. Three Indian trailers, mounted, came at length to where the fugitive was lying in ambush. One of these escaped with his life and rode like a demon lo tell of the tvio, lying grisly and stark, struck in the back by the bul lets of Shag, their faces now twisted in the sun. A stooping, stricken Washoe, the old Red Wolf, whose boys they were that had died in the sand, departed in sil ence, alone, on the path of war. The fued was his. In the night he found the man he sought, found him asleep --left him asleep--his knife standing firm, erect, burled to the hilt in the breast of Shag the warrior. The year grew,old; its days, like the hours of waking of an old and passing man, were dim and short, its nights long sleeps, that made it none the stronger. ' And yet there came a day that was like an echo of what had been before the year began to age. Susie, wan but wistful of face, went from the hope less wigwam and hurried away up the moaning creek. She went to a copse of alder trees, entered and was lost to view. An hour later she slowly emerged and in her arms she carried a child, a little boy with fairest hair -and the bluest of eyes. She seated herself in the sunlight and shivered as she nes tled the infant and cooed it softly with Indian words. She was faint and weary, but strangely happy. Her baby resembled its father, young as it was. Her heart went leaping to it--embrac ed it--owned it! Her pain, her suffer ing, everything was forgotten. All the afternoon she sat by the stream nursing her baby, cudllng it closely, warming It ever in her throb bing breast. As the twilight approach ed, the air was the balm of the Indian summer. Rising, she placed her baby in the rustling grass; deftly she bent the subtle willows down--masses of willow --and throwing the grass, leaves and twigs over all, made a roof to catch the frost. Into this with her child she crept, nestling it gently as before. Night came down. Quite late the babe awoke and feebly cried. She smothered it and sang, in her sad- sweet voice, a lullaby: I hear the crickets sing in the long grasses; •Many camp-fires of the braves shine in the sky-- They shine again in the little river; The wind is small and gentle when it plays in your hair. Lie in my heart as the pebbles lie in the little river; As the crickets lie in the long grasses; Shine in my heart as the camp-fires shine in the sky; v Sleep, little Fawn, till the sun comes over the mountain. The little Fawn slept, but never to wcke till a greater sun shoul^ top the mountains of dar&ness, misery and despair. Singing and cooing, Susie weaved in the darkness--unconscious of the (light --with the birds, toward the summer --of the new little soul. At midnight, bending forward to kiss the downy cheek, she was st&rtlejJ at its coldness. Hurriedly feeling the wee soft hands, the pulseless feet, the tiny body, she sounded the utmost depths of agony. She rushed from the shelter, the cold little body in her arms. By the light of the stars, the "fires of the braves," she saw the touch of the grim visitor. Then on the air of night arose a pain- song out of a heart rudely broken. She sank unconscious to the earth. Away off' hillward a gaunt coyote howled an answer back, dismal, long, forlorn. The sun gilded the path to the heav ens, and rose in purple mists of ma jesty; the beam-fingers played in the night-dark hair of the mother, and touched with gold the hair of the child. Dreaming the present far out of vision, dreaming the past into present again, the wan mother smiled and nodded in her sleep. Awakening, she shivered; a sigh that had rested was also aroused. Yet peace and patience God, 0 GM Btsrnal Spirit." she said, "they toltxna of the Christ who died --who dled tof sins--for souls in trou ble! But oft, my God. BS never knew of Indian soul»-«nd so. Great Spirit, let Susie die for all the sins--the love --the happiness!" I Still with her look to the mighty snn,' still with a murmur of pasnionate ap- j peal on her quivering lip3, she took I up Ler baby, pressed it in eagerness close to her bosom, and jlided ahead, to a pool of the stream, sobbing and sobbing, and was curtained from sight of the crystal waters. When the body of the slender young Indian woman, clinging to a fair-haired baby, was found, a few wives and mothers said it was "pitiful," and other persons said she was "only an Injun." | ' " ' (Tt9 En(U : I Klaitl of | We have all met the girl with the Independent air, who is apt to show a rebellious spirit when things do not go her own way.

It Is a good thing to have self confidence and courage for these qualities are es sential to success.

It would be an interesting and popu lar exhibition if the Pan-American authorities some day would take three or four of the best of the ferry boys from Buffalo harbor up to the exposi tion grounds, put them on the canals in their old skiffs and match them in a contest of speed and skill ? against the imported gondoliers.

It Is the demonstration of the fact that stones and metallic masses fall from the sky. Dr. O. C. Farrington reminds us that up to the beginning of the nineteenth century the attitude of scientific men toward the accounts of stones reported to have fallen from the sky was in general "one of scorn and incredulity." He quotes a remark of President Jef ferson when told that Professors Silli- man and Kings'ey had described a shower of stones at Weston, Connec ticut, In 1807: "It is easier to believe that two Yankee professors will lie than to believe that stones will fall from heaven/' It was only after a great shower of meteoric stones at Laigle, in France, in 1803, had been carefully investigated by the French Academy that men of science finally became convinced that such things really occurred. . .Vf! nclru# To* ISmttK. > some ingenious Dane!

Now adays men and girls show great eag erness to take up any pastime or sport which gives them exercise, and as we all know dancing has somewhat lost its vogue, which, from a social point of view, is much to be regretted. Let some of the fashionable doctors recom mend their dyspeptic, anaemic patients of both sexes to waltz as much as pos sible, giving themselves on an aver age the equivalent in terpsichorean exercise of at least 30 miles' walk a week, and we shall see a wonderful re vival in dancing.

Palaentological evidence, however, demonstrates that our every-day barnyard fowl and the scaly denizen of the Florida swamps are descendants of identlca:ly and the same progenitor. But let the casual observer be handed the egg of a com mon fowl and that of an alligator, and he will be much puzzled to tell you which will hatch a tasty chick and which s lusty "nigger guzzler." Pos sibly he did not know that alligators laid eggs, and if so, perhaps he will be interested in hearing what a prof* sor of the Johns Hopkins university has been doing. Hs secured some fresh alligator eggs and kept them la an incubator for a couple of weeks; at the end of that time he noticed a curl ous squeaking sound coming from the inside of the eggs--the sound which tells the mother that her babies are about ready to appear and should be helped out of the mess of earth and leaves which constitute their nest and in which they are burled. During the act of hatching the professor tells ns the little creatures were quite savage and would snap at his fingers. The newly born alligator is about ten inches long, and it is marvelous how he can be stowed away in so 6mall an egg. ;'#T*RI T*A*I *PR TIGERS. •Stir nl Ban •( Caataxta* the Bnlff In SiMtra.

As soon as a tiger's lair has bee* ! found natives are employed to con-1 struct a wooden fenca nine feet long > and four feet wide a short distance away from it, and in this inclosure is then placed as a bait a dog, which is tied to one of the fence posts. A nar row entrance leads into the inclosure, 1 and there, deftly concealed under earth, leaves and boughs of trees, is placed a strong steel trap, which is so designed that any animal that places • its foot on it is certain to be held cap- j tive. This trap is of recent invention j and consists of strong steel plates and equally strong springs. When it is sat the plates form a sort of platform, and as soon as the tiger which has been lured thither by the dog sets his foot thereon the springs are released and the cruel steel grips the leg and holds , it fast. Powerful as a tiger is, he can- I not free himself from such bondage, j : and as those who have set the trap are never far away he is in a short time either killed or securely caged. At the : same time the dog is released, and, in deed, he could not be removed from the inclosure as long as the trap was set, since this instrument, strong as it is, nevertheless is so delicate that the pressure even of a dog's foot would release the springs and cause the ani mal's leg to be crushed in a twinkling.
