PRINCE.
(By U*nt. R. A. Swift, V. S. A.)
IjR JjR ANUEIi DIAZ came
4r\\ and looked down at
III \X/A\\ me as 1 lay bound
/// xij \l\ and helpless on the
/// \|J ground.
"Gringo dog!" he
Bum 11'u, snowing
his white teeth.
Then he kicked
me contemptuously.
"You would not
dare to do that if I
W Cl C 4ICC-, even
though you are in the camp of your
own ladrone followers!" I cried, hoping
to arouse him still more.
He hissed some words I did.not catch.
"You are the most pitiful coward it
has ever been my fortune to meet!” I
continued tauntingly. "All greasers
are cowards! I fought you like a man,
and now you mean to hang me like a
cur!”
“Si, senor,” he returned exultantly,
“like a cur you hang! You keel four of
my men. Car-r-i'amba!”
"Only three,” I corrected. "My dog
disposed of the fourth.”
"The dog is dead; you will soon be so.
I give you a little while more to think
how you like it to hang.”
Then he walked away toward the spot
where several of his bandit followers
were gambling.
I had heard how brutally Diaz, the
outlaw, treated those unfortunate
enough to fall into his hands, and I
feared the fate in store for me.
He believed me a spy—flfti officer of
the law.
I could expect no mercy.
He had come upon ratAt sunrise as
lighted Are. w ', T: '»
i I think his dogs most have scented
Prince, my dog, and theyfled the out
laws to^rny camp.
My first warning was when five or six
dirty curs came y&ping. $pwn upon us.
I clutched my rifle as I saw the
Mexicans swarming over the rld®K‘ -.
My command to halt rang out on the
morning air, and then they opened Are
with rifles and revolvers.
I had no protection, and so I Stood
up there in the open, one to twenty,
and worked my Winchester to the best
of my ability.
Prince made a terrible scattering
among the curs that had attacked him.
He did not seem to consider them big
enough game for him, and so, flinging
them to the right and left, he broke
through and went leaping at the throat
of a man who had fallen and rolled
down the bank to within a short dis
tance of us.
Prince had the fellow by the throat
In a moment.
In vain the poor wretch tried to tear
hirogsif free.
His life was soon ended.
I brought down three others with my
rifle.
Then a bullet scored my skull.
The Wincshester dropped from my
nerveless fingers. I sunk helpless to
the ground.
I saw them rush upon me with ex
ultant yells, and I knew when they
bound me securely.
Now I was doomed to die by hang
ing—Dias himself had said It.
I tried to taunt him Into killing me
In a passion, but my efforts were in
vain.
He left me and sat down where he
could watch the men who were gam
bling on the big scarlet blanket they
had spread on the ground.
I saw him light a cigarette and puff
at it in a lazy way, seeming to have
forgotten me.
I knew it was a part of his scheme
of torture.
He would soon find time to remind
me that my minutes were numbered.
They said my dog was dead—poor old
Prince.
I turned on my side, choking back the
groan that rose In my throat.
And then I saw something that gave
me a start.
A short distance away lay Prince,
“HURRY, PRINCE, HURRY."
stretched on the ground as he had fall
en; but his eyes were wide open, and I
would have sworn he moved his tail
a bit when I looked at him.
“Prince!” I whispered, just loud
enough for my voice to reach him.
Again that movement of his tail, and
his eyes suddenly closed.
One of the outlaws was approach
ing.
“Senor," he said, as he came up, “the
chief tell me to say you have ten min
ute more to live.”
“Tell him I shall live to see him
hang!” I returned, a sudden strange
sensation of defiance coming over me.
“Pool!” sneered the man. “Gringoes
are all fools!”
Then he went back to the others.
I watched Prince again.
Slowly his eyes unclosed. The Mexi
cans were now at the most exciting
point in their game; they had begun to
quarrel.
Prince was far from dead, although
there was a gaping wound in his side,
and he was covered with blood.
He moved. Then, inch by inch, he
crept toward me.
"Good boy! Good dog!” I whispered.
His tail moved with a wiggle of de
light. *'
The outlaws’ dogs—lazy curs—were
lying around in the shade, licking their
wounds or sleeping.
Not one of them saw Prince move,
although my heart stood still with fear
that they might.
When he was near enough he licked
my face and whined very softly.
'•Good boy!” t repeated. "If you were
a man you could ret me free."
Tbe outlaws were quarreling mere
fiercely than before. I felt that they
soon might be trying to cut each other’s
throat.
What an opportunity for escape!
If my hands and feet were free!
But a short distance away lay my
Winchester.
How I longed to have It In my hands
and be able to use It then and there!
A sudden thought came to me.
I turned on my face.
Prince licked my hands, which were
bound behind my back.
"Chew it, boy—chew It!" I panted.
"Set me free!”
He did not understand at first, but I
am sure the truth that my hands were
helpless by the cords, finally dawned
on him, for he actually gave a nibble
at my bonds.
Then I encouraged him.
He seemed to understand that was
what I desired.
Immediately he set about gnawing
at the rope In a way that seemed to
promise a hasty release for my hands.
Two of the gambling Mexicans had
arisen to their feet and were confront
ing each other, daggers in hand.
Diaz was watching them calmly, still
puffing at his cigarette.
. Some of the others were urging them
on.
“Hurry, Prince—hurry!” I whispered.
Without making a sound he chewed
away at the cord.
At last, just as the quarreling out
laws were trying to stab each other to
death, I-felt the rope part!
My hands were free!
I did not sit up, but lay on my side
and drew up my ifegs so I could work at
the bonds that held my feet.
I soon succeeded in my desperate ef
forts.
rree—l was free!
Still I did not rise.
With all the caution I could com
mand, I wormed my way toward the
■JHrt where my rifle lay.
I secured It.
Down the elope I backed, while the
duel to the death between the two out
law* was going on. %
Prince followed, and not one of all
our foee saw tifi creep out of the camp—
not a sleeping* dog stirred..
We got away, and once out of sight,
we made all haste to put a long ate.
tance between us and our enemies.
I knew they would attempt to trail
us with their dogs, and so I was forced
to take to running water to deceive
them, and, in doing this, I carried
Prince in my arms, big, heavy fellow
though he was, with my Winchester
slung across my back.
It was two years before I saw Man
uel Diaz again, and then I had the
pleasure of attending his execution in
Guadalupe, Sonora.
He was hanged. Before he swung
Into eternity I reminded him that I had
promised to live to see that day, and
had kept my word.
He smiled and replied that I owed
my life to a dog that knew far more
than any gringo he had he had ever
seen.
He died “game,” which Is saying a
great deal for a Mexican.
Prince lived but a few days after
aiding me to escape from the outlaws.
His wound proved fatal.
Far in the lonely heart of the Gila
mountains I made his grave, and there
I burled the truest, noblest comrade it
las ever been my fortune to know.
Poor old Prince!
Daughters ,of a Hero.
A tract of land comprising about 156
acres Just outside the western limits of
Baltimore city, in the Thirteenth dis
trict of Baltimore county, and south of
St. Agnes’ Hospital and St. Mary’s In
dustrial School, was offered for sale at
auction Wednesday, at the Real Estate
Exchange, but was withdrawn after
five small parcels, including forty-two
acres, had been purchased at an aver
age price of $327 an acre, says the Bal
timore Sun. The property is a portion
of the lands owned In Maryland by the
laf . Duchess of Leeds, a granddaugh
ter of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, and
daughter of Richard Caton, after whom
the town of Catonsvllle is named.
The Duchess died in 1874, and in her
will directed that the real estate owned
by her In this county should be dis
posed of by her executors, and the
money thus secured should be used for
the purchase of real estate in England,
all of which, together wlth.the English
realty which she possessed at the time
of her death, was bequeathed for life to
the Marquis of Carmarthen which Is
the courtesy title of the heir to the
Dukedom of Leeds. The present holder
of the title Is the grandson of a cousin
of the Duchess’ husband, she having
died without children.
The r -operty put up at auction Is
but a part of the estates in several
counties in Maryland which came to her
from Charles Carroll of Carrollton and
his daughter. It was offered at first as
a whole, but no bids being made for this,
the choice of fourteen parcels of it was
next offered. The bidding for first
choice was a bit spirited, and it was
finally “knocked down” fdr $390 an acre
to Ruxton M. Itidgely. After that the
prices offered became steadily smaller
until the fifth purchase, when Auction
eer Kirkland announced, after a con
sultation with the American trustees
of the estate, Anthony A. Hirst and
Alexander Yearley, Jr., that the re
mainder of the land was withdrawn.
“We he ' expected to get at least $400
an acre,' said Mr. Kirkland," and not a :
bit of it can be secured for less than
$275 .an acre.”
The Duchess of Leeds was one of the
three famous daughters of Richard
Caton, who from their beauty and
charms were often called “the three
American graces.” They became the
wives of members of the British nobil
ity. Louisa Catherine, the Duchess of
Leeds, was the youngest ofN^he trio.
Mary Caton, the eldest, was at first the
wife of Richard Patterson of Baltimore,
brother of Mme. Elizabeth Patterson
Bonaparte, but in 1825 became the
second wife of the famous Marquis of
Wellesley, elder brother of the still
more famous Duke of Wellington.
Elizabeth Caton was married in 1836 to
Sir George William Stafford-Jernlngam.
Baron Stafford.
The wedding of Dr. W. L. Vroom and
Miss Blanche Miller the other day in
the St. Paramus Dutch church at

I was on a Sixth avenue elevated
train the other day when a woman with
a big satchel to carry asked for the
New Haven boat, writes M. Quad in
Detroit Free Press. I offered my ser
vices to pilot her for live or six blocks
and take care of the satchel, and, after
looking me over with a critical eye,
she said:
‘Young man, you don't look so very
innocent, but I think I’ll trust you and
take the chances.”
I saw that she feared I would bolt
with the satchel, and therefore took It
slow and did not get a foot ahead of
her. When we arrived at the steam
boat dock she took out a dime and ex
tended it to me with the remark:
“It wasn't much of a walk, but I’m
not one of the stingy sort. I hope you’ll
make good use of It.”
“Thanks, ma’am, but I can’t take
your money,”I replied.
“Then what did you come along for?”
“Just to do you a favor."
“I don’t believe It! ’Taint at all
natural!"
“Well, you see, I brought you here all
right and refuse your money.”
"Yes, I see it, and I’m Bnummed If I
kin make out whether you intended to
pick my pocket or run away with my
satchel. Young man, you orter quit
your evil ways and behave yourself.”
“Yes, I’m thinking of it,” I replied.
"That’s right—keep right on think in’,
and If you ever come up to Connecticut
inquire for Mrs. Daniel Williams, and
If it’s about noontime I’ll ask you to sit
down to dinner. I’m obleegcd, even If
you did intend to rob me, and if ever I
hear of your being hung I’ll tell folks
you had a decent streak about you arter
all.”

0«r Odessa correspondent writes:
"Nearly 100 Jews, rendered homeless
asd destitute by the terrible conflagra
tion'll Qeest'LitOYsk, hare arrived in
this city, where they have received
every attention and succor from the
Hebrew Benevolent association^, says
London Daily News. It is now ascer
tained that the total number of liven
lost is 137, hot the search for the
missing is not yet complete. The town
of Brest-Lltovsk consisted of sixty-four
blocks, and of these forty-nine, or about
1,600 houses, have been destroyed.
The refugees here relate the follow
ing tragic Incident, which shows with
what fearful and sweeping rapidity the
flames rushed through the wooden
bunt houses: The magistrate of the
secon^ district was driving from one
part of the town to another, the flames,
roaring behind him. The coachman
put his horses to a gallop, but, notwith
standing this, they were caught up at
a street corner and burned to death
magistrate, coachman and horses. One
poor, half-demented creature among
the refugees tells how her sister, who
escaped the flames, went to seek for her
only son and his three children. They
were found burned to death. The poor
woman lost her reason and is now In
an asylum for the insane. Both Jews
and Christians in this city have shown
the most unstinted generosity and sym
pathy by sending large stores of pro
visions and other requisites to Brest
Lltovsk, the railway company carrying
everything free.”
A SomiiHrabull.tic Rider.
Miss Mary Smiley, daughter of Theo
dore Smiley, who lives near Ferguson
ville, N. Y., Is a somnambulist and has
had some queer adventures In her ca
reer as sleep-walker. Last week Miss
Smiley’s father presented her with a
bicycle on her fifteenth birthday, and
also his consent to don a bloomer cos
tume. The young lady spent consider
able time last week in practice, and
after a five-mile ride the other day re
tired at night greatly fatigued. Shortly
after midnight Mr. Smiley was awak
ened by hearing some one paas out of
the front door and dowj^iP* ’Walk.
Looking out of the window The farmer
saw his daughter, arrayed in her bicy
cle suit, mounting her wheel for a spin
down the road. After taking quite a
ride she returned to the house and was
awakened by a douche of cold water.
She was much astonished by her es
capade.
Author of “Ben Hat*” on Bloomers.
Gen. Low Wallace says the future of
the bicycle depends on the woman rid
ers. “If the use of wheels were con
fined to the men,” he says, “the fad
might spend itself In a season. But
when the women take hold of the bi
cycle its future Is secure.” Gen. Wal
lace believes bicycle racing will event
ually supersede horse racing, but never
of course chariot racing of the Ben Hur
kind. Ladies who ride will be Inter
ested’to know that Gen. Wallace is an
enthusiastic advocate of the fair cycler,
and that he approves of bloomers,
“about which there Is nothing immod
•est, it being merely their present oddity
of appearance that now excites com
ment. Why, in the Tyrol the women
wear skirts coming just below the knee,
and no one, not even an entire strang
er, looks askance.”
Potato raff.
Potato puff is delicious with creamed
chicken. To one pint of hot mashed
potato add one teaspoonful of salt, one
tablespoonful of pep.er, half that quan
tity of celery Mlt, and hot milk enough
to moisten well. When partly cool add
the yelks of two eggs beaten well and
then put in the whites beaten stiff.
Bake ten minutes in a hot oven and
it comes out in a golden brown merin
gue that Delmonico might envy. That
to an especially good way to serve old
potatoes that have to be

wanted to bb a Man.
Ths Yoang W«nu Who Want to CM»
Mto In Mm'a Clothing. '
Miss Hettle Dickey, the young lady
from Delaware who recenty visited Chi
cago In men’s clothing, has told the com
plete story of her adventures. It ap
pears that for years she has had an
overwhelming desire to be a man. The
impulse to see the world as a man sees
It grew upon her to such an extent that
she finally decided to leave home. She
secreted a suit of her brother's clothes
in the woodshed, and soon after noon
on March 24 She slipped quietly Into
the shed and put on masculine attli
Then she walked calmly out of the ya 1
in front of her home to the road lead
ing to Kiamensl station on the Balti
more & Ohio railroad. It was then
about 1:30 o'clock In the afternoon.
She followed the tracks three miles
without meeting anyone. Then two
men came In sight, and, for fear of de
tection, she turned aside Into a field
and made her way to Newark, where
she took the 3 o’clock train for Balti
more. By this time her parents were
searching the country for her In the Im
mediate vicinity of their home. Reach
ing Baltimore, she stopped for an hour.
Then she bought a ticket to Chicago,
and left on the 7 o'clock train over the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad. All the
money she had on leaving home waB
$20 She reached Chicago on the night
of March 26 with *3.48 In the pocket of
her trousers. Her original intention
was to go to Denver or San Francisco.
In both of those places she has relatives.
After her arrival In the Windy City
she was at a loss to know where tc lay
her head. She was afraid to go to a
lodging-house, so she concluded to walk
the streets rather than run the risk of
being detected. For two nights she
tramped the sidewalks of Chicago be
fore finding a place of shelter. At last
she found a big lumber yard near the
lake, and there she spent five nights
among the piles of lumber. What little
food she ate during this time she pur
chased at cheap restaurants. In all of
these she seated herself at tables along
side men. For three nights she occupied
a corner In a box car standing on a side
track of the Illinois Central railroad.
One of the employes discovered her and
demanded an explanation of her pres
ence. She maintained her fortitude and
succeeded in escaping arrest. She went
on In this way for two weeks until, over
come by exhaustion, she fell 111, and
was removed to the Cook County Hos
pital. The Incessant tramping and the
clumsiness of her brother’s shoes caused
severe Injuries to her feet. Upon re
moval of the shoes St the hospital flesh
earns off with them. A diagnosis of her
ease was made by the physiolaas la
charge. While making an examln&tfoai
of her lungs h« discovered her sex. She
told him her name was Hettle Dicker
son, but subsequently admitted that tt
was Hettle Dickey, and that her home,
was in Stanton, Del. Aftsr listening to
her narrative the doctor notlfted her
parents. On April 24, one month ftom
the time of her disappearance, she wrote
to her mother, describing her sufferings
and asked forgiveness. She real ,»ed
home a week ago, and, with the excep
tion of a slight feebleness, she was nons
the worse for the experience.
“ LANGUAGE OF THE FL.AQ8.
What They Are Supposed to BepmU
In Ueath or life.
To “strike the flag” Is to lower the na
tional colors In token of submission,
says the School Journal. Flags are used
as the symbol of rank and command,
the officers using them being called flag
officers. Such fla&.t are square, to dis
tinguish them from other banners. A
"flag of truce” Is a white flag displayed
to an enemy to indicate a desire for a
parley or consultation. The white flag
Is the sign of peace. After a battle par
ties from both sides often go out to the
field to rescue the wounded or bury
the dead, under the protection of
a white flag. The red flag Is a
sign of defiance, and Is often used by
revolutionists. In our service It Is a
mark of danger, and shows a vessel to
be receiving or discharging her powder.
The black flag Is the sign of piracy. The
yellow flag shows a vessel to be at quar
antine, and Is the sign of contagious dis
ease. A flag at half-mast means mourn
ing. Fishing and other vessels return
with a flag at half-mast to announce the
loss or death of some of the men. Dip
ping a flag is lowering it slightly and
then hoisting It again, to salute a vessel
or fort. If the President of the United
States goes afloat, the American flag Is
carried in the bows of his barge or hoist
ed at the main of the vessel on board of
which he is.
