An anecdote of President Dnyes is
told by an Englishman who formed
one of n party of his compatriots while
the president and his family were at
Clark's ranch, near Yoscmlto. Tho two
parties wcro assembled In tho rude
kitchen awaiting tbo coming meal. A
certain stiffness prevailed at first. At
last a master of tho ceremonies nnd
Introducer appeared in the shape of a
small nnd elegant quadruped, evident

kitchen to bo caressed. A lady of tho
English party gently stroked its stem,
tho president its stern, Presently they
met, about the center of the animal,
and tbo Interchange of a few remarks
became Inevitable. "This Is a very

THE LITTLE
MEXICAN
By DANIEL C. HALE
1 was la Mexico examining a mini
foi New York capitalist when 1'ienl
dent Modem was nmn-itliMtwl Mini
lluorui took bis place.
Fortunately Tor inc. I had completed
my work when the revolution broke
out and managed to get a train lot
Vera Cruz, wlieio 1 Intended to cm
bark for the L'nltwl States. It nit
not n pleasant Journey by any menus
No one knew whether the new gov
eminent would permit tne tnilii to go
through or Intercept it on the way Mr
tho purpose of getting Its hands on an
enemy or whether adherents of the
old regime would take revenge on
homo ono who bad been pioinliieiit In
bringing about tho change. At a little
station barely ten miles fiotu Vera
Cruz tho train stopped and remained
stationary so long that I concluded to
wnlk tho rest of tbo way.
Everybody went about armed, nnd
I was no exception to the rule. But 1
lrnd my vouchers about me that I wax
n United States citizen, and I relied
for safety moro on being ablo to prove
myself a foreigner than on my arma
ment, though I confess it would have
been better for mo to havo been al
most nny other foreigner than a gringo.
I nm a good walker and believed 1
would bo able to do tho distance In
from two to two nnd u half hours. I
stepped out briskly, enjoying the
stretching of my legs far more than
sitting in a trnin which for nil any one
could find out might remain whore It
was till nnother revolution had been
accomplished. As I walked 1 reinem
bcrcd that 1 was on the road Cortex
and his ndventurers passed over when
they wcro beginning their memorable
march to tho capital of Montezuma. I
looked ahead, fancying that I could
see their head of column coming up
tho declivity.
I didn't see tho mailed Spaniard, bur
I did sco the back of a man rather a
boy ho secoied walking nhead of tne
nnd in tho same direction 1 was going
I soon caught up with him. and fro'n
his dnrk complexion, his coal black
eyes nnd long lashes 1 knew him to
bo a Mexican. There was no one neir
us, and I accosted him in Spanish,
which I spoke Indifferently, bidding
him good day and remarking that It
was a fine morning.
Ho seemed very shy. But the Mexl
enn people have not that self reliance
common among us of tho United
Stntes. and I did not expect him to
meet mo halfway. Besides, he was
boyish looking and even for n boy del
Icate In appearance. The only sign of
ruggedness about him was a color In
his checks. He looked at me askance
nnd us though he hud no desire for m
company until I told him that I was a
citizen of the United States, when ho
began to ask mo questions about how
he should get from Vera Cruz to an
American port, when and to wlin:
point the steamer sailed, what was the
fare and other Information desirable
for one who Intended to make the
journey.
I told him what I knew on tho sub
Ject nnd then began to talk about oth
er things. 1 found him willing to eon
verso except upon tho subject of the
revolution. No sooner did 1 mention
nnythlng. however remotely connected
with tho revolution, than he shut up
Ulco an oyster.
Occasionally 1 would glance aside at
him when 1 know bo was not aware ol
It and saw on his face Indications that
ho was under the Influence of some
powerful emotion. I would have liked
to gain his confidence that I might
learn what moved him, but I did not
believe this possible, so I did not tr.
However, as we proceeded on our way
together bo ceased to appear nnxious
to get rid of me, and before wo roach
ed Vera Cruz he seemed to coiisldct
mo something of a protector.
Finally I ventured to ask him about
what be would do at Vera Cruz, ami
he told mo ho was going to sail on the
first vessel leaving for the United
States. I replied that 1 was goiiu
also and we would bo fellow pasMii
gers together. When we were enter
Ing tho city ho surprised me by hand
Ing me his purse and asking me to lin
his steamer ticket for htm
Fortunately for us both a steuuu-i
was to sail early the next morning
and we were permitted to go aboard tit
once. The young man retired to It .
stateroom, and 1 saw htm no more
thnt day.
In the morning I was walking t'f
deck while tbo ship was making mm:h
ton knots an hour over the gulf. I
saw coming up the eompanlonwny tin
counterpart of tho boy who had been
my fellow traveler the day heloiv
But this person was n girl. The tit i
thing that caught her eye on emergo.'
from below was the stars and strips
flying from the peak. A relieved c
presslon came over her face, and I
knew she was saying to bersell
"Thank heaven!"
"Aba. senorlta!" 1 said. "I suspect
od yesterday that you were not nun
cullne."
"Oh, senor." she replied, "you weic
very good to me. At first I wished to
get rid of you, but at last I lelt thai
you were my protector."
During tho voyage 1 saw much ot
tho girl nnd gained her promise on my
own promlso of secrecy to tell why she
left Mexico In dlsgulso. When coming
Into port sho relloved my curiosity.
"My brother," she said, "was one or
thoso who were reported killed while
trylug to escape. I stabbed to the
heart the man who shot him."
A Typhoon In Japan.
My room on tho second floor rocked
nnd swayed, and It scorned as though
tho building could not hold together.
After awbllo I grow accustomed to
tho motion nnd tho nolso of breaking,
glass nnd dropped off to sleep, but n
terrific crnsh right by my enr brought
mo up with a start. Tho sheet iron
shutters of my windows had finally
succumbed to tho fury of tho gale nnd,
nlthough fully eight Inches outsido of
tho glass, had bent In until tho win
dows, sash and all, lay shattered on
tho floor. A drenching torrent whirled
In through tho crack between tbo re
listing shutters, seized a screen and
hurled it clear across tho room on to
my bed and then seized tho bed and
bounced it savagely up and down.
Then part of tho roof took leavo and
slid pnst my window with tho nervo
racking clatter of coal pouring into an
empty steel bin.
By dawn tho typhoon was satisfied
with whnt It had done nnd moved on
out to sen. I retrieved my saturated
clothes and went downstairs. Melvln

Unconscious Memory.
Tho memory of sleepwalkers Is oc
casionally prodigious under tho influ
ence of tbo dominating impulse that
moves them. Thero Is an Instance of
n poor nnd Illiterate basket maker,
who was unablo to read or write, yet
in a state of sleep ho would preach

of discourses be wns accustomed to
hear In the parish church as a child
moro than forty years before. Quito
as strange a case of "unconscious
memory" Is referred to by Dr. Aber
cromblo. A girl given to sleepwalking
was In tho habit of Imitating tho violin
with her lips, giving the preliminary
tuning nnd scraping nnd flourishing
with tbo utmost fidelity. It puzzled
tho physlclnn a good deal until be as

A Faint Hearted Poet,
Samuel Rogers, tbo English poet,
whoso house In London was noted ns n
literary center, wns very fond of tho
society of ladles and wns n great fa
vorlto with them. Yot ho never mar
ried, and in his latter years he used
to regret not having dono so. Rogers'
"nearest approximation to tho nup
tlal tie" was with a girl whom ho
thought to bo tbo most beautiful he
had ever seen. At tho end of tho Lon
don season she said to him nt a ball,
"I go tomorrow to Worthing." Ho did
not go with her. Some months after
ward, being nt Uanolngh, ho saw that
tho nttentlon of every ono wns drawn
toward a largo party that had Just en
tered, In tho center of which wns n
lady leaning on tho urm of her hus
band. Stepping forwnrd to sco this
wonderful beauty, ho found It wns his
love. She merely snid. "You never

Mission of the Russian Fleets.
A Russian licet under commnnd of
Admiral Lesoffsky lay in Now York
hnrbor during tho winter of 1SG3-1,
nnd another was In San Francisco
harbor for tho same period. Tburlow
Weed Is authority for the statement
that Farragut In his presence at din
ner asked Lesoffsky why ho was Idling
tho winter away. Tho Russian an
swered. "I am here under sealed or
ders, to be broken only In n contin
gency that hns not yet occurred." In
general conversation ho nllowed It to
appear that tho particular contingency

matter by Prlnco Gortschnkoff in St

Ono of tbo nrtlsts hud Just finished
singing "Sally In Our Alley." Tho
song appeared to affect Pogson. I gave
him n dig In the ribs and Inquired:
"Upset you, old man?"
"That song." ho began, "brings to
my mind an Incident of many years
ago which happened when I was a
boy. How well I remember tho com
motion, the wall of tho governess, tbo
shrieks of the mater! I had a little
sister named Sally, and ono day wo
wero playing marbles (wo called them
'alleys'! when nil of a sudden Sally

"But what's the connection with the
