Jack Gay And His Fozes- .Jack, was beginning to get tired of ruling' behind and to wish that he wcis back borne. When he heard old Sue give one short sharp yelp aw then another dog bayed, long and loud, all the dogs ran to the woods and soon all began to yelp and yowl "They've strnck a fox, stick on Jack" siid uncle Howell as be gave his horse a cut and struck for the woods Jack was setting: his blood np too, and whooped like a Comanche; in- dian. "Shut up Jack," said uncle Howell, ''it's too soon in the game to holler yet." Just then the dogs all hushed, prettv soon old Sue howlfvi again, and yelps could be heard all about in the woods, some of the dogs went right over tht nshes Mr, Joy- Tier's burned house "It tney Had not seen me, I would erawj tip one of those fire-ruined chimneys' he rnmi lKired. but ii way he wrent, out by the stables, put by the grave yiir I, the 4gs now coming so Jose, he could hear them fall over the fehc. If can only get to the blue banks' he thought, I will jump fo the river, it is almost here, and he made a great effoit. The blue banks was a bluff one hundred feet high rising up from the water. Archie Joyner fell off there and it didn't hurt him, and Mr. Fox thought he could do so too. On came the dogs, on came Mr. HowelK and the horse, hallooing, and ; panting, and foaming, the woods ringing with the fray. Old Sue was right at Mr: Fox. Mr. Fox was now right at the bluff, Mr. Howtil thundered Up cra zy with excitement, and the dogs were wild, ker-burr went Mr. box 8oo mm Siiiiiiis To .

But Jack was right there every Mine. It was a long race they had. but Mr. Fox had fool de the dogs his last time, lie tried i-'iiining along the fence on top of the rails, so as to cut -ff the smell of his feet, but the dogs had been fooled that way 0efor. He would cross his tra-ks and run back, but they knew all about that, they were gaining, gaining on him all the time. :Oh, he thought, if I only had strength to get to the river" Then with his little red tongue hanging out and his great big bushy tail drag ging.the ground, he slipped through the fence, out of the woods into Mr. Holland's field, no one had pevii him yet. He glided down the ditch, lap. ping a little waer once in a while, and hearing the dogs gaining on him closer, and closer, tney came. Jxmd er, and louder Mr. Howell's voice I- C.

Uncle How ell was out. of the saddle, holding Jack with oiie hand, he swum, to the opposite shore. "Don't cry Jack, are you hurt son ?" said tender heart ed uncle Howell, as he reached the shore. "N-no I ain't hirt, but where is the fox, we ought'er caught him." "Look," he shouted, and pointed to a sand bar down tlie river, where. the old grey fox, after as heroic a fight for life as ever Spartau made, lay blear-eyed and crouchiug, looking with savage contempt oh old Sue as she floated dead down the cureut, and teeliug that at last he had es caped, "Look," he beard it, knew he was seen. He knew it was his death knell. But death was not to come from niau's inhumanity or dog's ferocious instinct. Uncle Howell wins JATHAM & SKIN NEK, ATTORN E Y S-A T-LA W . GREENVILLE. N. C. F G.
