and reached an ojieu tract with nothing but

Suddenly they found themselves In tho midst
ot villages tho Inhabitant ot which wero to
all appearance frloudly, and tho chief manga,
who owned tho whole district, as well as the

their camp uear tho huts.
A purt of tho uoxt day wits sicnt iu hunt

okseguls and peculiar head drosses. Night
approached, and, In contrast to tho provious
day, everything was qulto still. Tho Katlr

and as ho did no a body of Mushukulumbwf
rushed from tbo grass to tho camp, two fall

lu tho last Ohio legUlaturo was a represen

until ho was serving his fifteenth term. At
tho opening of tho session tho flrt bill Intro
duced was to grant authority to n certain
Thomas Shlolds to construct a mill dam on a
certain river. Somo ono hunted up tho fact
that this bill lind been regularly Introduced
and ns regularly killed through tho efforts of
tho old timer at every kesslon for a dozen
years, and when ho was asked to explain ho
said:
"It's Just this wayt A dam there would bo
all right, but Shields Is down on me, nnd tho
mlr-uto a bill is -Wised ho will lay for nnd give
mo a winding. So long ns I can stnvo off bis
bill bo will let mo alone, hoping to got it
through tho noxt besslou."
"But tho jieoplo favor a dam there, and it
Is hardly fair to keep thorn out of ono bo
cauio you aud Shlolds bavo a quai ivl."
"But I don't propcoo to Invito a pound

of tho members rushed it through ngniust the
Itrotests of the old-timer. When ho found
llmsclf defeated ho Raid: "Well, von will km
what tho re&ult will bo. I'vo got to (jet ready J
ror a licking."
Threo days later, as somo members wore
going homo from an evening session, they
found n bundle of something ngainst a fence.
When lifted up and uudono it proved to bo

mill dam. Thoy recovered consciousness
when handled, aud whou ono of tho Anders
asked what had happened a voice fnlutly an

J. W. lvlekler, Into commander's clerk,

ono of tho crow on tho ship Enterprise, n
whaler In tho North Pacific. ,
Ono day bo was stationed In tlio lxw of n
wlinletmat n longdlstnnco from tho ship, with
a bravo crow who had sighted n wholo nnd

ard thew his harpoon, striking the llsh hard

men In such a wny ns to throw him over
board. Tho man suddenly sank, whcreujion
Leonard transform! his lluo to n boatmnto
nud sprang iiitothaoceanlnaldof the drown
ing sailor.
The w hale, now maddened by his fast flow
ing blood, mndo a rush for tho loat. Ro
mnrkablo nnd horrible to relate, Leonard's
friend had mannged to regain tho boat, whllo
ho himself was caught by tho whalo between
his Jaws, his -xikltlou being lusldo tho mon
ster's mouth, with nothing protruding but
ono of blsnrms. In thlsiunnuer tho man was
In reality within tho Jhwm of death itself.
The whalo lustitutly plunged down Into tho
deep, and, iu tho voids of Unmanl himself,
"tho llsh seemed to bo going down, down Into
eternity itself."
Tho Imprisoned Minn, after all this, had not
lost his procure of mind, lie mustered his

Up to the surfncu ho swum, when, most

Your lllllliiu of AiiceatoiK.
Did you over think how many malo nud fe
male ancestors woro required to bring you
Into tho world First, It wns necessary that
you should have it father and mother. That
makes two human beings. Each of them
muit havo hail n father and mother. That
11utl.es four moro human being. Again, each
of them must have had a father nud mother,
making eight moro human Mugs. So on no
go bnck to tho time of Jeaus Christ, tlfty-slx
generations, Tho calculation thus resulting
shows that l!W,tSB,017,iS,J,KI 1,0711 births must
have taken pluco to bring you Into this world
you who read these lines! All this since
tho birth of Christ not since tho beginning
of time. According to Proctor, If front a
single air, for 6,000 years, each husband nud
wife lind married at til years of ago uud there
hud been 110 deaths, tho population of thu
earth would be '3,111.1,1)15 followed by Ut
ciphers. It would require to hold this popu
lation a number of worlds the size of this,
equal to Il.lUl.rc'll followed L) l'.'.'. ciphers.
