A True Hal Story.
Hera is a new and absolutely true bat
story. A New York gentleman, dining
at a hotel in Boston, found on coining
out that he was the last to leave the
dining room, and his bat bad been taken
by somebody who had preceded him,
leaving one very similar, bnt unmis
takably not his, in its place. It was a
sufficiently good substitute to allow of
his wearing it for three weeks after hi

day, three weeks later, be said to a
friend with whom be bad just been din
ing:
"1 must replace this bat: its not mine,
and it doesn't fit. Come with me and
I'll do it now."
Together they sought a neighboring
shop and begun to examine hats. One
after another waa tried on by the intend
ing purchaser, none quite suiting hi 111.
"It's too bod, said bis friend. "Like
yon, I am bard to fit Now, this one is
the most comfortable hat I ever bad."
, "It looks so," remarked the hat seek
er; "let ine try that on." The hat was
banded to him. It adjusted itself per
fectly to bis head. "Man alive I" he
ejaculated, "this is iny lost bat," and be
took it off quickly, turned back the in
side band, and, sure enough, there was
bis name and residence in Indisputable
proof. It turned ont that the friend bad
been in Boston the same day, though
they had not met, bad dined at the ho
tel, bnt bad nut discovered that he hnd
worn away another man's hat. And the

John W. Mackaywas born in the

to this conntry very early in life, he
worked for a time ou board ship. Pur

he came in, looking warm and agitated.
Seeing him roused out of his usual calm
excited one curiusity, but we indeed 110
questions till hu had eaten aud refreshed
hiuti-.clf. Then we gathered around him.
"I have had auioht unpleasant adven
ture," he snid in his solemn way. "I have
been chased by a hawk." Now, if a
child of nix had made that remark it
would have been touching, but for a
broad shouldered penion of any number
of feet to announce that he was afraid
of hawks was too much for our aenso cf
humor we laughed. "What' did you
do?" asked the inquisitive member of our
house party. "1 clapped my hands and
shouted," suid Mr. Rogers, "but the
hawk didn't mind ut all; it kept circling
round my head and swooping down"
We reasoned with him, We said it
was physically Impossible for a hawk to
fly away with him. We told him the
next time a hawk chased him to fall flat
upon his face and call for help. We
suggested that a plump mosquito had
caused his alarm. All in vsin. He ba
toned without emotion, and fixing bis
eye on me as the most obtrusively merry
person present, said, "Wait till a hawk
is after you; yon won't like it." ;
AN EVENING! WALK.
The meaning in his words came to me
a few days later. We had been bathing
in Pecouic bay. We staid there, splash
ing and swimming, till the blue water
turned gray and the sun went down in a
red smudge. Then suddenly we all felt
an overpowering desire to get out of our
clammy bathing suit and home to tea
aa fast as possible. I decided to walk. 1
was cold; besides I rather wanted to get
away from the noisy crowd.
So the house party packed itself into
the wagouctte and quickly disappeared
down the winding road, leaving me to
cut across the hills alone. (Funny with
what alacrity people who are really fond
of you leave you behind.) I felt very
much alone somehow, and I almost
wbhed I had gone with them. Our
house is ouly a mile from the Peconio
beach on a level line, but as the Shinne
cock hills are like so many green dump
lings one's progress is very np and downy,
and a mile may be twisted into astonish
ing lengths.
I struck across the fern scented bills at
a rapid pace, one moment on top of a
mountain range, with a view of the two
bays, the next down in a hollow with
only bay bushes for a horizon. Istopped
in a sort of cup to watch the coining
night. The earth sent up a warm, sweet
smell; little stars began to twinkle as
though pricked into the sky. bome-
thing dark started op under my feet
my shadow, for the moon had risen. "It
is nice to be alone sometimes," I thought
"One can't be intimate with nature
when crowds of people are about. I feel
now that I am lying on her boGoin"
Whirr-rl from the sky. Then two short
sounds like the flapping of a wet toweL
DlHCKKTION AND VALOR.
1 looked up. Right over my head,
poised as neatly as the sword of Damo
cles, was a hawk. It looked quite sta
tionary, but I remembered Mr. Rogers'
words, and I felt bold. "The thing
doesn't seem inclined to swoop," I
thought Then I started np a bill, with
my nose pointed at the hawk. Just as
1 reached the top it gave two flaps and
swooped, f chipped my hands. Where
upon the bird circled and dropped a few
feet.
"I won't encourage It by looking at
it," and I walked into tho next hollow
in a dignified manner. Then I looked.
That brute of a bird wai hovering in an
expectant attitude.. As it caught my
glance it began to circle; it circled till I
grewdizzy; tlien itguveacry of triumph
and swooped. That action demoralized
rac; it turned the hawk roo and
me Into a pygmy.
With one "Shoo!" of despair, 1 threw
manhood and self respect to the wind.
I ran. I ran as hard as I could, np bill
and down. Isrambles caught at me;
blackberry vines chtsia-d my ankles; but
once' mounted ou terror nothing could
stop me. My white flanueled figure
shone out In tho moonlight, adding zest
to the hawk's attacks. On wo raced,

stopping till the friendly lights from the
house streamed out to meet us. 1 hen
