There was a shimmcr of crimson light
in the bky as he rode along. Silting

attitude that changed little as his horde's
gait varied from lope to trot, from trot
to walk Or from walk to lope, his eves
Used straight ahead, the scout rode. al
solutely alone.
Solitude" and tUeuce bad been his por
tion eo much that language was to him
a curio, a rarity, a luxury. He eldom
heard xthe sound of human voice, and
when he did he listened deeply and an
swered deliberately . for his supply of
peech was not great. As he rode there
came a scream from afar overhead a
bhuc-k. a screech. Hut he did not look
upward.
He knew the tuice was the voice of
n Springlield ball, high in the air. Man
ami lmr-e lay down and waited. Neither
moved, but liotli watched.
On the brow ot a little knoll, far away,
he saw a buMi wae too fa-t. It was far
n way. but he leveled his rille and fired.
1'hi'ii lioie and man arose as if by
mutual tiudrrbtandiirj. and turning from
the knoll he rode, the report of tin- guns
behind him merely iivsinsr him to liaMn.
He wa1- not aft aid He w:i- nut c-
i it'll.
Me did noi uspeir io ne. tie niu not
1-i.pect to live.
I.ate that 'night lie reached the poet,
delivered his unler and tinned to go.
The captain st-ippetl liim.
"Meet anybody o:i the' way over?" he
asked.
The scout looked haul. a if digesting
the tuery. Then lie thought. At latne
nnseiel:
"Only some Indian--."
How manyV"
"Was stci," said the cout. "Xon
SIS."
"On the warpaLliV" asi.ed the captain.
The scont looked tioubled. as though
borel by the question.
"Tliey lird" was all he said.
Now. then, tbe war was on in earnest.
But tbe scout ever after aioided the cap
tain as a man who talked t-jo much.
In the grounds noncommissioned offi
cers passed to and fio. bent on th" duties
of the day. New reciuits were being
drilled, singly and in squads. Now and
acain a stiff young lieutenant crossed to
the o!Gcer3 quaiters or. bent on inspec
tion, went through the form of examin
ing quarters to so" uh.-tlier tbe dust bad
been pioperly brushed away ana tne noor
duly swept. Presently a soldier entered,
walked to where the scout lay, aud said:
"Colonel wants yon!"
The -scout remained immovable for a
few second-. Then he turned to the mes
senger and looked him squarely in the
eje. Then he arose, deliberately dresed,
drew on his long hoots, buckled his belt
with the ammunition and revolvers in
place, and .-talked to quarters. The or
derly halted him at the door.
"Colonel nants me," he said.
He passed in. Tbe colonel ignored the
lack of a -alnte. for the keen eyed man
before hiui was uot a soldier.' but a civil
ian employee. Then he said:
"There is a woman here, the wife of
Lieutenant Jasper, wbo is wounded at
the ferry. She wants to join her hus
band. You must guide her over."
The scout looked half terrified.
"Woman?" be asked. The question
bad a world of meaning, for tbe colonel
knew ot the hostiles ou the road, the dan- J
gers of the trail itself. Its double dangers I
for-n woman. He nodded.
"Bad," said the ucout.
. "Can't be helped," said the colonel.
Tbe.ecout' stood (still a moment. Then
he'turned and walked ont."--As herreach-
aTJ8Jafsyergl-6un(rue8awa'womaa
before the officers' quarters. The sight
revived his memory.
In a few minutes he was back at the
colonel's quarters, his horse saddled, his
blankets rolled behind the cantle the
rille slung by the horse's side, the riata
coiled carefully over the saddle post.
"Tell him I'm ready," he said gruffly
to the orderly. The soldier turned in dis
gust. He was not used to unceremonious
oider. But the scout was impenetrable.
So the'orderly went.
AVhen tbe scout was ordered in, he saw
a little woman wealing a short riding
habit. He looked at her indifferently.
The colonel spoke, saying he was the
best scout at the post, and she might feel
safe with him. x
"I feel it," she said.
Tbe scout broke silence. "Better not
go," he said.
"Oh, I must!" was her answer.
They rode away together. All the
night long they rode, halting during the
day. On the third morning, as the wo
man was about to lie down for a few
hours' rest, the scout arose, aa one who
was about to deliver an oration.
"Only six miles," he said.
Fear of the hostiles bad forsaken her,
and they rode rapidly on, indifferent alike
to the whistle of the bullets, the yells of
the braves, and tbe efforts of small par- j
ties of bucks to head them off. Closer
and closer to tbe camp, and then, as the
sentry challenged, the scout turned and
let the woman ride ahead.
He faced the bo-tiles for a ruomeDt.
I Then he looked around and saw the
' guard rush forth and welcome the faint
ing wife. The dancing braves jarred on
his sight. He turned back to .vhere the
woman had entered the camp, and then
followed her.
The officer of the guard almost hugged
Iniu. Men gathered about him. Tbe
captain clasped his bund. Tbe wounded
lieutenant, now almost well, wept.
The talk annoyed him. Philadelphia

Docklns: Horse.
Docking horses took its rise in the dark
days when bull and bear baiting was
honored by a place in the category of
sport, rightly now relegated by law to
the catalogue of outrage. This custom
of docking was once generally applied to
English roadsters, hunters and harness
horses. The only useful purpose it ever
-served wps in the Peninsular war, when
British dragoons could be most easily
distinguished from French by their cock
tails. It fell into disuse with the decline
of road coaches, and we owe its unwel
come revival to their partial restoration.
It is senseless, baibarous and disfigur
ing; it inflicts needless suffering upon
brood mares and horste? turned out to
grass, depriving them of their natural
defense against flies, besides tbe severe
pain and shoek caused by the operation
Itself. It dhonld be discouraged in every
possible way by influential persons, by
those who lead the fashion in such things,
and agricultural societies should be mov
ed to refuse prizes to exhibits which have
undergone this mutilation. Blackwood.

Hns AHmu lived in a humble cottaye
in Jerusalem. One n.-miis he -tood long
before the open winj.iu shutter. IIow

slipped on the big. smooth stout-. He
sang a monotonous -ong hi the cu-tomary
plaintive brawling, nasal tones of the
easterner, and as he passed along the
sound -of his voice reminded one of the
bagpipe.
On the window sill lay a manuscript
dissertation, and so clear and brilliant
was the February moonlight that Hans
could read tbe fine writing without dif
ficulty. It was a defense of the establish
ed order of things, of standstill conserva
tism, admitting of no exception. Aud
a he stood there in the city where the
idea of human brotherhood as born and
had gone forth over the eaith, as he
glanced uter the pages of the document,

To lie sure, it was meiely the pul-ations
of hi- owu blood, which produced this

tiny lights ceased to revolve and looked

the coal and entered into conversation
with tie reit. -
Next" morning, when Hans Alieuus
again stood at his open window aud saw
the people p.i-. thtie wen- many who
stopped aud looked with cuiio-ity at the
drawing on the nail.
"That represent a shoeu.aker; his
back i bowed." said the shoemaker.
''YotT talk nonsense." returned the
fruiterer: "that stooping posture proves
that hi is a fruit vender. They forgot to
draw the babket on his back, but that
half open mouth shows clearly that he
was crying: 'Pomegranate! Come and
buy! Come and buy!" "
A hirh official of the banbediin who
pasted, and who of course did not mix i

people bought to himself: "It U perfect-

He hud a simple demeanor and a kind,
patient fnce. Nothing great was known
of him, no chronicle has preserved his
name, for he led n retired life, away
from the noi3e of the world. With hands
crossed over the knob of his walking
stick he contemplated the drawing.
"What a nobb? forehead!" he thought.
"What lofty humanity that bent figure
suggests! Oh. if only one could he like
that! But why wish for the impossi
ble!" As he stood theie. -.ilent and humble,
the likeness to the diawiug was so strik
ing that everybody fell back, pointing to
him in whispers.
Startled and ashamed he slipped away,
unable to understand why they should
stare at him.
In his conscious humility he had re
sembled the Christ shadow.
Had he known this, and, pioud in that
consciousness, stood erect, the likeness

It was Poor Kichard whr remarked,
"Here comes the oratoi, with his flood of
words and his drop of renon." and dur
ing his whole life Franklin was uo
speechmaker. "I served." JeffDrson said,
"with Geneial Washington fn the legis

and during it with Dr. Franklin in con
gress. I never heard either of them
speak ten minutes al a time nor to any

John Adams, in one of his periodic out
bursts against the man whom the public
deemed greater than himself, contrasted
his own services in congress, iu which he
claimed to have been "active aud aleit iu
every branch of business, both in the
house and on committees, constantly pro
posing measuies, supporting those I ap
pioved when moved by others, opposing
such as I disapproved, discussing and ar
guing on every question," with those of
Fiauklin, who was seen, he says, "from
day to day, sitting in silence, a great part
of his time fast asleep In his chair."
Yet Frankliu was appointed on eiery
important committee and Adams on few,
and the sage, could he have read his

A HERO OF THE MINE.
He Risked His Life to Sno- Tliut of n
Fellow Wurlciiutn.
Heber Franklin, a young iniiu em
ployed at the Clear Creek mine. Is as
much a hero at. any man who ever
braved death on the battlefield. Frank
lin sought not glory, but to save a hu
man life. Theie was u fire In the mine.
The men were called out. Then they
rrere about to shut off the air iu order
to stop the flames, wheu It was learned
that a lone miner was working deep iu
the mine beyond the point where the
lire started and was then raging with
growing stleugth. Here Is the story
of the subsequent events:
boreman Tlmmus immediately canett
for volunteers to xo with him Into the
m)ue to rescue the man. Several nt
tempts were made by different ones,
but they were driven back by the
flames, and the cry of "Powder!"
caused a hasty retreat.
Finally Heber Franklin, a young man
whose work keeps him on the outsjde,
said, "I will go." And accompanying
Foremnn Tfcwis b.e pressed oa
through the fire and fonnd the man
working away tatuplug a hole, entire
ly uncousc-ious of the danger threaten
ing him. They .succeeded in getting
out of the mine safely, when the fan
was shut off ami the dip closed up.
The rescue was an act of great bravery
on the part of Franklin, as his work
kept him on the outside and he was
unacquainted with the exact lay of the
land Inside, and the danger of suffoca
tion from black damp was great. lie
was the only man of the many staud
Insr by whose nerve did not desert him.
It is stated upon good authority that
ten minutes more of lost time would
have resulted in the death of tins miner
who was at work and possibly a great
lo-s to the company, as the supply of
air could not be cut off while there was
auy hope of rescue, ami this would
have tended to feed the flames. Salt

FATE OF A CAESAR'S ASHES.

When Shakespeare put in the mouth
of Hamlet the curious conceit about

taining a cinerary urn of rare oriental
alabaster was brought to light. The
inscription on the cippus revealed that
the ashes contained within the urn
were those of Calpunius Piso Liciul
anus, who, in February, A. D. 69, was
proclaimed Caesar by the Emperor
Galbra. Four days afterward Galbra
was killed, and Piso also suffered
death in his thirty-first year. His were
the ashes that the alabaster urn con
tained. The precious urn was given to a
workman employed on the premises to
take care of. Some days after, when
the proprietor of the place asked for
the urn. he found It empty. "Where,"
said fie. are the ashes that were
here?" The workman, surprised, said
that he gathered them together and,

negie an offer of $30,000 for building a
library in Oakland, Cal. In acknowl

Oakland would do as other cities have
doneI. e., provide a site and agree to
maintain the library at a cost of, say,
$1.00'J per j ear It would give mo pleas

aboe. Xo use building libraries un
less we are sui-p of their future."
