Among tho many plctu.resn.ue figures tarith which the eld south teemed a meal Kriking DM was tlie runaway uegro. Not ithe ocoosional "hidor out"—the ono who •ought temporary refage in the woods to isscape pKiiishment for something done or left undone, or for fear of being soto tothe Bpecolators, nor oven when tjao crop was Brassy and the work bard, hut the one ,wbo dung te a wiW life as Instinctively as an Indian, arid who rtubjut almost bs termed the professional runaway. Your genuine runaway was a born woodcraftsiaon. The. habits of Wild ani mals and ways ,of taking them seemed to fee his by Intuition. Ho hud no difficulty In varying his menu of pig, liurtb <tod poul try with ail the rabbits, squirrels, opos sums and fish that he wanted. Sunwtfcaiea [lie carried hts dog into the woods with Mm, 'although of eotir«e it greatly increased bis "danger of biing taken. But this wasmore efor oompanion.-hip than Anything else, lor, ;.»ingle h::ndcd, with.his snares, traps and "gums,'' he was more €hrtu ft match for ■wild game-of all kinds. f Discomforts which would have driven, stte amateur back to the snug chimney corner of the plantation qnarfiers and a - whipping. had no terrors for him. Like the rest of his race, tie cared not a fig for Wfet, while cold, the negro's droad, he tknew well How to guard against. The art of producing the maxin.eim of Are witli • the minimum of smoke was his to perfec tion. He knew exactly vrhat kind of wood 'and bark to select, and how to combine them to this end. No matter how hard ihc rain; how socTden the wood, all that ho asked w&s a "chunk," or, lacking tbat, a ttonl of fire, to lie as happy as n king—the ideal, not ibe real king, I maan. From, a coal which, in unskilled bands, would aonrcelr huve sufficed to light a pipe, he co*>M, with oven the wettest and most Im possible kind of f ttel„soon call into being the rarest of roaring flids, while ih the preservation and transportation of fire he could have given lessons to Prometheus himself. Ip the most, essential feature of cave architecture—secrecy—ho easily surpassed -all imitators. Between two suns, and ofteaer than not with only tbe wornout stump of a'hoe, tho runaway would dig and conceal a cave which defied detection .from tho eyes of a lynx. At the same time several cubic yards Of upturned earth had to bo whisked away and hid undor distant leaves, or, better still, consigned to the safe keeping of some running stream. For several reasons the wornont "old fields" of the southern states were- the ta- Vorito«ifce of the oavo nigger. These dreary wastes, given ovor to guiieys, broom sedge and scrub pines, being deserted by man hood in general, were of course his safest retreat. The. sail having been over ex hausted and "turned. qdit," and tho sappy, twisted e;:He. being held worthless for either rail's or fuel, there was no danger of toe woodman's ax coming that way again for many a, long year. Nor did tbe squirrel 6r fox hunter have often to seek or follow bis quarry into this terra Incognito—where Indeed the dense screen of the low, thick 'ptb.es would .nave conflued their vision to a Very limited upace. j Here talis Esauaof the south, whom in deed every men's hand was against, and -awtrnirco esttMtßm\Qllff)l akfety.

Somey times Be wonld sever at the ground a long, stout grapevine, the other and being se curely Interlaced among the tree limbs many feet above. By grasping tbis viiie he was ablcioewing clear of-the ground many feet, or even cross a considerable ravine and drop just at tbe mouth of bis cave. Again, when tbe pines were thick, hs might climb a tree, aud passing from limb to limb, monkey fashion; slide down a tree trunk at (she proper spot. Still another, which could sometimes be practiced, was to mount a stray ox, and forcing him to tbe proper place spring off. One very orig tnal old darky, little dreaming that history was repeating itself—with a variation—is said to have fashioned to bis shoos an old pair of horseshoes, reversed, knowing that no runaway hunter would over think to notice a horse track. , Amid the swamps tlje malaria proof negro found little difficulty, if so minded, In passipg a lifetime "hid out." But up among the hills of tbe central portion, where there wore no retreats impenetrable to all but the initiated, where the farm bouses v«ero close together and compara tively tittle land uncleared, it took no lit tle skill aud cunning to play tbe runaway successfully for any considerable period. Vet Johnson's surrender brought in more than one ragged, "varmlntlikir" creature, wbo had i.pent perhaps the better part of v loftg life in this manner. There were even Womeu runaways, and sometimes very suc cesjful ones. A few children wore born in the woods.

"From the circumstance tbat a con siderable less number of wb)nen than men aro convicted of crime tho infer ence is drawn that in women the crim inal propensities aro weaker or under hotter control.

Mrs. Cleveland wrs made vice president, and there ware among the various other offi cers several representative society people and philanthropists.' ' MAItY KATnARIITE TOUNO. Sufficient money Was rained to start the first free kindergarten, and Miss Mary Katharine Young was chosen its principal. It w»3 located in one of the worst parts of First avenue, and for a fow days its gentle teacher and her assistants had tho toughest time ever experienced by educators in a well organized city. With no powerful school board back of them and no city ordinances to protect them as to tbe attendance of their pupils, , these ceiurageous young women continued bravely at work, and before two months hael passed were instructing dally from 80 to 100 poor children, all under five years old. Tho children aretaught to play quietly, ;to sew, to cook and to keep house. A piano is fn every, school, and tho teachers are always supplied with food for tho little tote who may come to lessons hungry. Every Christmas Mrs. Cleveland sends a Christmas true 'to Miss Young's kinder • garton and liberally supplies it with dolls and toys for the girls and flannels, shoes, 1 etc., for tihe parentis of t.b»o children. On fin Iwjnitft rtfty sho vlßits the school and takes part in the exercises. Last summer Miss Young was chosen by Mr. Oi bier to. be his representative at '' tbe meeting of kindergarten associations • held in Denver. She was one of the prin ' clpal essayists on th(it occasion. i In the December Century Miss Young i writes about kindergarten work. She la devoting all her time, her energies and | her thoughts to the task of educating the i children of the poor. Miss Young is a very charming woman.
