It was in the Boer war of 1879 I was sent with a dispatch from Newcas tle on the Natal border, to Standerton, -and had to ride throngh a conntry occu-i pied by the enemy. We knew from ex-; penence that the Boers had parties out on all the roads to intercept messengers, i but as I was pretty well acquainted with those parts and had a good horse I hoped to slip throngh, without being noticed, by a cross conntry route. I had got ovet. more than "half my journey when,' just about dusk, 1 saw a solitary Boer riding in the distance. He disap-l peared almost immediately in a fold in' the ground, -and so, hoping that he had not in that brief moment discovered me,: I stood where I was, behind a clump of rocks. . j . .;' . - My horse and I were both in need of rest, so as darkness came on I moved down into a grass grown donga below! the rocks, where the horse could graze! and whence I could Bee any one ap-i proaching by his being defined against' the sky line. I had had "the misfortune during the day to lose one of my saddle bags, thanks to a rotten strap, and found! myself in consequence without food and' without any more ammunition than the cartridge in my carbine and two spare ones' in my pocket, and so, for mare reasons than one, I looked forward' to getting soon to my journey's end. As the moon xose behind the rocks I began to think of starting on my way again, when suddenly my nerves were put on the qui vive by my horse chuck ing up his head and staring forward for a few moments with pricked ears. Then, without having stopped - chewing, he dropped his muzzle back into the dewy grass and went on grazing as though dewy grass bred no such thing as "horse sickness." Following the direction of his stare I fancied I saw something mov ing in the shadow of the rocks, and a few seconds later the figure of a man loomed up clear and black against the moonlit sky, moving along the top of the "kopje" in a stealthy, stooping po sition. Hat, beard and rifle proclaimed him to be a Boer. Time, locality and posture 'told that he was searching for me. Mechanically I brought my carbine to the "ready. " As I did so he stopped and slowly sank behind a stone. Either a glint of my weapon or a sound from my horse had caught his attention. I was in the deep shadow of an overhang ing rock, and my horse was behind me, effectually concealed by a projecting corner of the bank. I never took my eye off the. spot where the enemy had disap peared. The minutes dragged by like hours as I watched Without seeing a sign. Could he have slipped away from there altogether and perhaps be creeping down behind me somewhere? I dared, not take my gaze off the place for a sin gle moment, and the tension of waiting gradually became almost unbearable. My heart was thumping away all the while with suppressed excitement, al most drowning the only other sound saudible in, the surrounding .dead still ness, the sound of my horse contentedly cropping the herbage. At last a move ment by the stone I was watching, and I saw his head rise slowly and quietly peer about It seemed almost like a bad dream to watch this specter so noiseless ly exerting all his craft to find me in order to take my life. , How steadily he stared into my donga with his head only just above the stones ! But he could not see me, his eyes could not pierce the 'darkness of my hiding place. Seeing nothing, he gradually raised himself fo gain a more extended view or to look into the ground more immedi ately under his position, and now I saw his head, shoulders and body clearly sil houetted against the sky, almost under the moon. Quickly I raised my carbine to my shoulder. The barrel shone like a bar of silver as I pointed it for his head. Slowly and steadily I lowered the fore end till the bar was diminished into a single spark shining against the lower part of the black figure.. He never moved, and all the while my brain kept repeating those lines of Gordon s - How strange that a man should miss When his life depends on his aim! Bow strange that a man should miss When his iife At the right moment hand and eye Worked mechanically in unison, and through the roar and red blaze that fol lowed I bad a momentary vision of two hands thrown up against the sky and then blank darkness. My horse, startled by the report, first claimed my atten tion, and then, as I slipped in one of my two remaining cartridges, I. wondered what next should be done.. ; Was the man dead or shamming? Had be friends near who would be attracted , by the report? Should' I stay where I was or make a'bolt? I finally decided to wait a few minutes and watch. Not a sound. Nothing moved. ' So carefully and quietly I crept up the donga, and by a detour made my way to the back of the pile of rocks. A move ment in their shadow caused me to drop flat among the stones, till I saw that it was only the Boer's horse quietly graz ing out into the moonlight. So the man was still" there, but was he alive and waiting, or was he dead and safe? Cau tiously I crept nearer and nearer, with mv carbine ready. Still no sign. At last I see something. Is it a branch or a crevice? It is a rifle, and its shadow lying across the rocks. Enough 1 Even if alive he is in my power now. ; I walk boldly forward. - There, near the rifle, down r among the stones,- is a huddled heap. It is the : first man I have ever shot.' I don't quite know what to da I push him with my foot No response. He is dead. How strange it seems I A few minutes ago this dead bundle was as full of life as I. Every muscle and nerve, every sensation in fullest work ing order, and now but one little act of mine, and the whole, is thus collapsed. Only now the moon was looking down on two human beings approaching each other over the wide veldt A moment later she looks sadly down on one stand ing beside the crumpled remains of the other. ' The two horses are still grazing peace-, fully on opposite sides of the rocks. I roused myself from my musings and took up the dead man's rifle. It was a Martini-Henry. After appropriating its cartridge, I knocked out the block axis pin and threw the block away, so that it might no longer be of use to an ene my. And then I thought to replenish my ; own , ammunition - from 4he enemy's ! store and turned again to the corpse. ; I felt a reluctance to touch the poor limp thing, but his haversack was part ly underneath him and had to be got out That done, I drew the cold hands down to the sides and straightened out the legs, but oould not go. so far as to turn the body on its back-r-I f eared to ; Hfla the f aoa In the haversack I found ', the cartridges a Bible and sorae - ""ug - viu urioa meat j. V t. cra-tng8 hunger were reawaken ea by the- eight of :food and I was soon munching away nt my newly acquired rapply, while I still stood in a kind of fascination over the bodv of mv Mm Howsteangeto.be eating the food pre pared for one who. had Uo'need for it! To be tasting the flavor, which somehow I did. not' altogether .; like, that possibly . he would have been testing now had not all power of taste suddenly gone out of him forever! Then his Bible lying there, reminded me that we were both practi cally of the Eame belief. Two Christians, whose religion: told them to love one an other, meeting' in the midst of a heathen land strangers to each other on earth, but brothers in spirit f We meet to greet each other with . peace and good will? J No, but without even a word of anger one to kill the other. And' a great ! remorse comes over me. What right had I to take his life? By. killing him, in what torrent of grief and ruin may I not have involved a wife and bairns? Did I not fire before there was need for it? In vain I tell myself that -had I riot killed him he would have gathered me. j .,-.;.' , All feeling of animosity is drowned in that of pityAt any rate if his com rades find him they shall know that we "Rooi-batches" bear no grudge, but have some good feeling in us. May it help to dispose them more peaceably to ward us ! So, after a very short meal, I stow the ammunition and the .- remainder of the food into my pocket Then I drag the body from where it lies, leaving only a black, shining blotch among the stones, into a shallow cleft between the rocks. Here I turn it on to its back and see the pale, dead face, the paler for the contrast with ; its black beard in the clear moonlight I : close the glassy, staring eyes and compose the limbs in their narrow bed, and then, with large bowlders, I overbridge the grave and fill up every crevice well with stones. Little now is left to da On the highest rock, just above the grave, I, build a cairn of stones, in which. I firmly plant the rifle upright I take his Bible, which has writing in its cover that may tell his name, and fasten it, inside his hat, to the . muzzle of the rifle, and to the cleaning rod I tie my handkerchief, to serve at once as a scare to beasts and an attracting sign to men. And then I turn and leave the spot - I reached Standerton all safely with my two horses soon after daybreak and delivered my dispatches. When I emptied my pockets, daylight- showed me that what was left of the biltong and rusk was all besmeared with blood, Sketch. EXIT THE BLUEJACKET. ta Modern Steam, Battleships Atblette . Sailors Play a Minor Fart. A proportion of the bluejackets of any fully rigged ship were necessarily ath letes.' The "upper yardmen" in a line of battle ship or a frigate were excep tional men in this way, and much more so perhaps just about the time that sail power was receiving its death warrant than ever before. These young men had to race aloft to nearly the highest points, at top speed, eight or ten times a week when the ship wai in harbor, to keep their heads and maintain their breath while "holding on by their eyelids," as the phrase went, and manipulating with a careful and measured order of action the various and intricate arrange ments for "crossing" or "sending down" the royal and topgallant yards. It was all done at full speed, for it was uni-' versally held that the upper yardmen' gave a character to the whole ship and that one which was foremost in this ex ercise was ever considered "the smart est ship in the fleet " The upper yard men were always the coming men. They had most opportunities for distinguish ing themselves; were the best known, and were most under the eye of the au thorities. They developed great muscu lar power in chest, shoulders and arms. Their lower j extremities suffered, and one always knew the men who had been upper yardmen by their tadpolelike ap pearance when they were bathing. But in the modern steam line of bat tle ship and frigate these extremely ath letic specimens formed a very small minority of the "ship's company," and none of them could lose his turn at be ing upper yardman so long as the ship's reputation depended on the speed witn Which the upper yards were crossed and sent down. In harbor the rest of the bluejackets had the handling of yards and 'sails for exercise once or twice a week, but at sea the use of sails for pro pulsion 'grew lees and less important, and most of the work aloft was more ef an exercise apd less of a necessity. North American Boview. CRACKERS FOUND ALL OVER. Wanderers of the Tribe In the West and North as Well as the South. . "You'll find crackers in other parts of the country than the Eouth," said the tall, grizzled sea captain like man at the inn. "I've seen them in every land res. and on Long Island. ' I take it the cracker belongs to a class by himself. The crackers, all the way from the foot hills of the Alleehanies in Lancaster county. Pa. , to the mountains of Geor gia, are, as I take it, the descendants of men from the north of Ireland. Some of them reached this state from Canada and went south by way of the old Cher ry Valley turnpike into Pennsylvania, and thence into Maryland and Virginia. They are the best of the cracker tribe. They still have some of the religion 'they started with and a remnant of en ergy. 1 . "You find a -southern or western cracker nbw and then with a good New England name. There was an early New England emigration to the south. I met out in the mountains of Missouri a cracker who was a direct descendant of the old provincial governor of Massa chusetts, Endicott He bore the family name and had a trace of the New Eng- lander in his face, though he could nei ther read nor write. . He had, however, his grandfather's diploma from Harvard college. The grandfather had removed to North Carolina, and part or perhaps all of the family had drifted west and finally reached Missouri The crackers had a way of traveling along the moun tain valleys : from state to state, and a sood many went into Tennessee and Georgia." New York Sun. Brave Sepoys and Sikhs. The siege nan - lastea altogether 40 days, and there had been S9 men killed and 62 wounded.- The sepoys had suf fered greatly from want of food,as to eat horseflesh like the officers would have been against their creed, and the ghi had long run out. They had only half rations of flour, and when the relief came, they were weak and emaciated from want of food and sleep, but their endurance and pluck were most admira ble. The sikhs especially showed extraor dinary nerve. The worse the outlook the cheerier they grew. They wouldf sit all day cleaning their rifles, witn a quiet smile, as though the anticipation of defeat had never entered their mind. They felt sure, they said, that the gov ernment would not desert them and that in due time help would come. As one of them tersely put it, "The arm of the government is slow, but it reaches very far. " Indeed, no praise can be too great for the Sikhs, who were the very backbone of the deiflse. v They not on ly endured hardship and privation with out a murmur, but they fought witn a quiet, dignified courage that in itself in spired confidence. "The Chitral Cam paign, " by xnompson. CHLOROFORMING-A TU'fttLE." An Old Snapper Fnt ta Sleep For a Short ' ' .. . ' Time. ' I decided to chloroform a largo snapper and endeavor to learn gome-' thing of the action of ; the lungs and 'whether it oould resist death in this form.; At the first application of the saturated sponge to the snapper's nose he darted and seized it in his strong mandibles and 'jerked it into his shell. Then I had him, and in due timo, by constant attention ajgd with an outrageous expenditure ox ohlorof orm, I completely subdued the old fighting mossback. At last the ludicrous sight of a thoroughly anaesthetized snapping turtle-was presented. It was an amusing spec tacle this savage turtle, lying limp and apparently, lifeless.. I ; opened its sharp, hooked jaws and freely handled his powerful but now nerve less legs. This fellow, anaesthe tized, 'with his flabby legs and lolling head, looked much like the old dead mossbaoks which are found about the margins of ponds each spring. Finally, after the application of the chloroform was discontinued for a length of time, his serviceable but ill looking flippers began to vibrato spasmodically very soon one of the closed eyes was exposed and then the other, much after the manner of the opossum in emerging from one of its voluntary lethargio spells. In time it perfectly recovered and again gave evidence of its innate vicious ness by savagely biting at every thing as before. It is probable that a snapping turtle could be ultimate ly killed by constant application and the expenditure of large quantities of chloroform, but it is not readily done, as I convinced myself. The reason for this is evident. As soon as the turtle comes under the influ ence of the drug it lapses into a . state not inaptly comparable to the condition in which it passes the cold months. In hibernation it probably breathes much less frequently, and also when under the influence of chloroform ceases to breathe to a large extent. This the turtles and other reptiles can do, as tney are cold blooded and do not require the constant supply of fresh air that is indispensable to birds and other warm blooded creatures. We may say that the voluntary act of stopping the respiration when below the surface of the water cor responds to the involuntary cessa tion which spasmodically results from ' anajsthesia. Therefore, whether confined at the bottom of a pool or subjected to the continued effects of an anaesthetic, it is rea sonable to suppose that a water tur tle, either the snapper or leather- back, could resist death for a long time. If tho snapper and soft shell spend the colder months in the mud and water, and this is stated as a fact by many writers, then the crea tures must surely cease breathing during their hibernation or else adopt an entirely different form of respiration from the one made use of when on land. Interesting ex periments might be made to ascer tain whether the snapping turtle takes its winter sleep Tin the mud, J . J.1. X 1 A 1 ury Beirut or water. American Field. . Neal Dow'a Trip on the Erie Canal. One of the groat events of Gen eral Neal Dow's younger days was a tour of tho Erie canal, made when he was 21 years old. "I met on this. trip," says General Dow, "a Swiss gentleman of rank and fortune, but a few years older than myself, and traveled with him for some time.. We became fast friends, and a cor respondence between us was kept up for years. After awhile, however, this dropped, and I heard nothing of him until 1857, some 32 years aft er, when I was in Europe, and I tried to hunt him up. I had no difficulty in finding the family, but my friend had been dead for two or three years. Judge of my surprise when I learned that the cause of his death was attributed to the fact that he had joined the teetotalers, and ab stinence from liquor had killed him. The funny part of this was that his cousin, who told me about his death, did not know anything as to my views and gave me that information as a solid faot." But the general stands it pretty well, eh? Lewiston Journal. Swedish Doctors Send No Bills. Sweden has doctors, but no doctors' bills. If you have occasion to call a phy sician, you will find him not only skillful, but a highly educated and most honorable gentleman. You will also have another proof of the honesty of the Swedes and their friendly confidence in each other. Swedish doctors send no bills to their patients. When you shall pay your phy sician is left entirely to your own choice. The rich pay him liberally whether they have need for his services or not, if he haa been once retained by them. The poor pay him a small sum, and the very poor pay him nothing. Yet he visits the poor as faithfully as he does the rich. On the last day of the year you put Into an envelope, addressed to your physician, a sum of money which y6u think not only sufficient to compensate him, but In ac cordance with your position in life, and, inclosing your card with the money, send the envelope by a servant to the doctor. The servant returns with the card of the doctor in a sealed envelope directed to you. This shows that he has received your money, and no woraaDouc tne matter ever passes between you. Should you send him nothing he win come and prescribe for you all .the next year, and as long as you live, and he is too dignified to ever say a word about It. -New York Ledger. Heroic In the Carlist war of Spain, which was prolonged from 1833 to 1840, most of the mountain races of the north 01 Spain were supporters of Don Carlos, the pretender to the Spanish crown then worn by Queen Isabella. Upon the defeat of the Insurgents one detachment of them under the command of General Ello was taken to Bayonne as prisoners of war. Victor Hugo in his let ters tells this inoident of the occasion: ' General Elio, who had spent 17 months in prison by order of Don Carlos, was a member of this troop. When he reached Bayonne, General Harispe said to him : 'General Elio, I have been ordered to make an exception in your favor. Ask of me what you desire, what would you like for yourself and your family V - "Bread and shoes for my soldiers," said Elio. ' "And for your family r' "I have just told you."
