T a leading Chicago hotel I formed the acquaintance of John W a l l a c e , a n o l d hunter of some note. It was Saturday e v e n i n g . W a l l a c e and myself sat in the reading room of the hostelry, engaged in c o n v e r s a t i o n o v e r cigars. After we had tuiked of various thiugs we had seen during the day, be asked if he had ever told me of his adventure in the vicinity of the Big Hem River. I replied that I had never heard of it. "Then I must tell yon," he said, throwing away his' cigar. I lighted a fresh Havana and he con­ tinued as follows: "In the summer of 1876. in company with a party of hunters, we started for the country of the Big Horn to hunt buffalo. "We found but very few, the country had been hunted over by the Indians, driven thither as their last refuge from the all-pervading frontiersmen, and game was very scarce and shy. "One day, while in the act of strip­ ping my horse, previous to tethering him out to grass, I happened to cast my eye over a Bcrubby patch of coppice- wood but a very short distance south­ ward, and detected a small herd of buffaloes moving leisurely towards a small stream of water. MI was alone, the remainder of the party having gone out early that morn­ ing to see what success they could have in finding small game. "Hastily retightening the girth of my saddle, I remounted, and, giving spur to my horse, bounded over the distance towards the herd. Keeping as much as possible under cover of the woods between them and myself, I had come almost upon them before they caught scent of me. "Then spurring my horse to his utmost speed, I dashed in front of the now ex­ cited animals, and, halting for an in­ stant, leveled my rifle. Singling out the leader of the herd, I fired. The leader wheeled, turned off to the right and started at a furious speed. Reload­ ing my gun, I dashed on again, scan­ ning the ground AS I flew over it. I could see traces of blood, and knew that 1 had wounded my game." "Soon those in the rear of the herd passed the leader, and his speed began to greatly slacken. "I was now in a deep, narrow ravine. Rushing in front of the wounded ani­ mal, I quickly fired, killing him in­ stantly. "At the report of the gun the remain­ ing buffaloes seemed to acquire renewed vigor, and sped on at a wilder run. I saw it was useless to try to overtake them. "I tethered my horse and proceeded to secure the hide of the dead buffalo. Having taken off the great shaggy robe and cut several slices of the juicy, red meat, I started back to the camp. "It was nearly night, and I was a long ways from my desti- tion. The raving was walled in on each side by high cliffs. Dark dor s were rolling across the heavensi My jaded horse traversed the distance Blowlv. 1 hadn't traveled far until I could hear the low growl of distant thunder, and the wind began to blow in low, moanful sounds throngh the deep hollow. "Soon everything was in Plutonian darkness, save when lit up by lurid flashes of lightning. A storm was com­ ing! "I began looking for a place to shel­ ter myself and horse. At last, by the light of a very bright flash, I discovered the entrance of a cave, which I found would protect me from the approaching storm. ...i. '• "The roar of the thnnder and wind, the lurid streams of lightning and torrents of rain without, formed a wild panorama! "I struck a light and looked around my department. I found it was dry and contained some wood; I soon had a blazing fire, unpacked my horse, and, taking part of the meat, put it on the firg tc r9f»^t. ; } " The stuFni still oontinued in all its bnabated furry. "While taking my supper 1 happened to cist my eye towards the mouth of the cave. What I saw tbere made me drop instantly--not a moment too soon-- which without a doubt saved my life, for the reports of three shots rang ont on the air; the dilsky forms of three In­ dians were advancing toward me. "I seized my rifle and fired at the foremost savage, who fell; then clubbing my gun, I dealt the one nearest a furious blow, which knocked him down. Before I could strike again my gun was broken by a blow from the Indian his finish me up in a hand-to-hand fight. "He drew a long, keen, knife; I had my hunting bowie in my hand. ."His eyes glared at me like those of a panther; he was of giant form, and I knew ft was lo be a life or %ith us. ^ " With the bound of a wild beast he began the deadly en­ counter. The first thrust I warded oil with my left arm, receiving a slight wound; and in return I wounded him, as I could see the blood running down his sides, t "In a few moments we were covered with blood. I soon sew that if I didn't dispatch the savage in a short time I should be a dead man! "With a last aud super-liuman effort. I grappled with my antagonist and threw him. In the fall he lost his knife. I snatched it up and drove it through his chest. With a wild yell lie roiled over--dead! "I was on my feet in an instant, to jneet the other Indian; he still lay where lie had fallen, clotg t? th$ one I had shot. They were both deadT *1 dressed my wounds, though weak from the loss of blood, and ate the meat I had roasted. The storm fas soon over; and the hollow ravine i|ras made lighter by th§ full'moon vhich was now high in the heavens. "Remounting mv horse I returned to the camp; where 1 found the remainder of the party, greatly alarmed at my ab­ sence. "ffi"Ufter years I engaged in the min­ ing business, and laid up for the rainy days a few thousand." Wallace concluded with: "Bat that liight's adventure was the most perilous of my Iife/[ / New-Bom istaata According to a Yorkshire (England) notion a new-born infant should always be placed) in the arms of a maiden be­ fore it is touched by tfnv one else; and in some instances its right hand is bound in a cloth during the first day of its existence in order that it may gather tiches when grown to manhood or tvomanhood estate. In many parts of the United States, Germany, France, and Holland, as well as throughout the British Isles, it is considered very im­ portant that an infant should "go* up" before it goes down in the world. Thus, if a child is born in the lower story of a house it is instantly bundled up by one of the old women and carried up-stairs; if the event occurs in the j upper story the same old woman is ex- j ected to take the ohild in her arms and clamber upon the top of the table, bureau, or even a chair, anything to get the little one up in the world. In the north-of England when a child is taken from the house for the first time, it is given an egg, some salt, and a little loaf of bread, and occasionally a small piece of money--these gifts being supposed to insure the child against ever standing in need of the the com­ mon necessaries of life. In the East Riding of Yorkshire a few matches are added to light the child to heaven. In Holland, Sw.eden, Norway, Poland, and parts of Russia the mother of a new­ born babe, if not too poor, provides a small cheese, which is cut in small slices and distributed among the un­ married ladies of the neighborhood. Any young lady who receives her share of the cheese and eats it without asking where it came from or who sent it, will meet her future husband at a cross-path or cross-roads within the month. In Northumberland a cake called the "dreaming bread" is distributed in the same way, the young ladies who par­ take of it being supposed to dream of their future husbands the same night. In the United States, as well as in many other countries, a book, a piece of money, and a bottle of liquor is placed before an infant the day it is 1 year old, the object being to test what its after inclinations will be. A Partnnr Wanted. At Wichita, Kan., I had to occupy a room at a hotel with a stranger, who told me that he lived about fifty miles away on a ranch. We got along all right for three or four days and then, one night as we went to bed, he asked: "You kin read and write, apn't ye?" "Yes." "I sorter mistrusted yon oould. What do they call this thing 4fcey gel out abont a new town ?" "Do yon mean a prospectus ?" "That's it. Kin you write one?" "I think so." "Kin von draw a sort o' map?" ~ "Yes." "Just as lief lie as not?" "No, sir!" "Well, don't get hot. Here's what I want. I've got 200 acres of land thirty- five miles from anvwhar, and it's too cussed poor for a jack-rabbit to even run over. I want to lay out a town thar and sell off $50,000 worth of lots before the end of the month. It kin be done if I kin git the right sort of a part­ ner." "You want a liar, eh?" "Got to be. He's got to lie a river alongside that property, two railroads across it, 15,000 population into the county, and then wring in a lot of churches, schools, and factories: to gild it off. I'll give you half." "No, I couldn't." " "All right--no harm done. If yon are not a liar, that settles it, and we won't have no hard feelings." Six weeks later I met him in a bank in Omaha just as he was depositing $27,000, and he held out his band and said: "Shoo! Is it you? Wish you'd have come in ten minutes ago and seen my liar holding up his half of the deal. Conscientious scruples,^ eh? Well, some folks has'em, and when they does it's ail right, and no hard feelings on my part." Ladles fond of Tobacco. Inquiries at a few of the prinelpaf to­ bacco stores of London has revealed the fact that smoking is very fashionable among women, especially amonsr those of the upper ten. "We are used to be­ ing asked for ladies' cigarettes here," said a salesman atone of the big stores. • We serve the ladies with cigarettes in as matter-of-fact a way as we do gentle­ men. Not only do ladies smoke cigaf- ettes," he went on,"some of them smoke cigars. One lady comes in frequently for a be j of cigars. She smokes almost the costliest Jbrand we keep." 'Borne of the most expensive brands of ladies' cigarettes, he said, were arti- facially seated. The manager said that the ladies whom they supplied were chiefly ladies of rank and fashion-- dachesse?, countesses, etc. They pat- ronfce a good Turkish brand costing six or eight shillings a hundred. I asked what the opinions of gentlemen were on ,the subject. "Well," said my inform­ ant, "those of the old school naturally don't approve of ladies smoking, but the 'young men take it as a matter of course. I have never heard a man speak in a derogatory manner about a lady because she enjoyed a cigarette.

WHILE some people are vety partic­ ular as to whom they talk with, a mate would like to be on speaking terou with almost anybody. .fA v * A well-dressed stranger walked brisk­ ly into a hotel one morning, placed a large valise on the desk and his name on the register. The veteran clerk as­ signed him a room, but it was noticed that he followed him with his eyes un­ til he was lost to sight, and then, if tlie brown study into which he plunged was an indication,he continued the cha«e mentally. Then he turned to his French assistant, Mike O'Brien. "'Mike," he said, "I have suspicions of that man who just registered." "Indeed," quoth Mike. "And why, pray ? He appeals all right "Ah, perhaps to you my boy, per­ haps to you," the veteran responded, "but when you have been in the hotel business for the best part of half a cen- tnry you will have become suspicious of any man who takes the trouble to place a. heavy valise on a desk instead of set­ ting it on the floor, as would be most natural and ea^y to do. Now, that<nan put his valise on the coanter, and therefore I am suspicions." M. O'Brien h&s &n infinite respect for the veteran's opinion, and he confessed that in this instance in particular his opinion was very well founded. "In fact," he said, "I had a queer kind of feeling myself pass through me when he registered. £ didn't know tfhat it was at first, bnt now I know it mnsthave been a suspicion." A little later, when the veteran had made up his mind that the proper thing to do would be to demand payment in advance the housekeeper asked him to step to the new-comer's room. He did so, and found lying open on the bed the valise, where the housekeeper, entering the room to see if it was in order, had found it. In one side was a linen duster, a pair of soiled collars and cuffs; in the other side four large cedar blocks, pre­ sumably to give it weight. With feel­ ings of mingled wrath and self-congrat­ ulation the veteran returned to the of­ fice, where the guest in question after finishing his breakfast appeared. "One moment, please," the clerk said to him as the gue3t laid his key on the desk and started to depart. "It is cus-1 tomary for strangers stopping here* without baggage to pay in advance? "But I have baggage," the stranger' said, without turning a shade. My valise; you saw it when I came in." "Pardon me, you are right." said the clerk, blandly. "But permit me to in­ quire what you have in it?" • "My clothes." _ "Your wardrobe is extensive," sarcas­ tically. "By the way, what are the ce­ dar blocks for ?" by way of a settler. But the stranger wasn't settled, neither did he settle, for looking his in­ terrogator in the eye be replied: "Oh, they are to keep the moth's out Cedar's great for that" Then before the veteran could re­ cover from his astouishment the stranger coolly lit a eigar and walked out of the hoteL Why Banks Don't Wsa't to Tak* QoML "Do you know that gold is the most nnwieldly of all the different kinds of money now in circulation ?" said 4 prominent banker to your correspon­ dent. , • "Why?" was asked. "Because it is not bankable without careful scrutiny." * • 1 " "How is that?" "Simply this: Take a greenback, m silver certificate, a gold certificate, or it national bank note to your bank, and if is received and placed to your credit' without a moment's delay. Not so wittf' gold. A few days ago a gentleman brought to our bank upward of $3,00® in gold of different denominations, and was much provoked because we would not receive it forthwith, and give him credit with the amount the face of the coin represented. This we could not do, because the law requires that gold shall be redeemed only at its actual value. Coins carried in the pocket for any length of time naturally lose some thing in weight by abrasion, probably but a fractional part of a cent on a ten- dollar piece, but it is a loss, neverthe­ less, and therefore bankers canuot give credit for gold deposits until the coin shall have been weighed. "In the case in point my friend took his gold to the Treasury Department and was compelled to wait there nearly an hour before he could get notes for it. Every coin had to be passed through the scales, and after the weighing pro­ cess had beei? completed, three coins, two five-dollar pieces and one ten-dol­ lar piece, were returned to him as short in weight Before returning short- weight coins the department stamps on the face of each a cross. The owner is left to either sond the coins to the United States Mint for redemption or to again put them in circulation. Event­ ually the coins with crosses on their faces will go to the Mint and be re­ deemed at their actual value. In many instances there may not be more than several cents shortage on $50 worth of coin. Business men, however, object to the inconvenience, and get rid of their gold as fast as possible."--Indian- apoli8 Journal. A Girl's Brave Peed. Miss Pauline Collier, a y«ung lady 16 years ot age, is a pupil in the Pan­ handle county .of Texas, and although she lives ten miles from town, she makes the trip back and forth each day on a spirited Texan pony. One morning she left home at an early hour, and was riding leisurely along when she espied an enormous panther immediately in front of her, crunched in the short prairie grass, ready for a fatal spring. With admir­ able presence of miud Miss Collier seized the lariet hanging at her saddle­ bow, and with great dexterity the ani­ mal's neck was encircled with the deadly coil. At a word from its mis­ tress the pony which Miss Collier was riding sprang away at a gallop, drag­ ging the savage bnt helpless panther to its death. Becoming satisfied that the animal's life was extinct the young lady undid the rope from the pommel of her saddle, leaving tbe idither str^ohed upon the prairie Lehiud her. Proceeding on iier Way to School she ffiet several cowboys, and related the story. They went to the spot where the dead panther lay, and proceeded to denude it of its hide, which will be made into a robe and presented to the young lady. The panther weighed 210 pounds.

There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitu­ tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in­ flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed fou have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear­ ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; ninecases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any ease of Deafness "(caused by Catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY A CO..
