THE SNOW QUEEN'S GIFT-
Onco upon a timo two ooplo, wlto
hail been married a prcat man years,
were sitting beside their stove, m their
comfortable little Jiouse, talking to each
other.
"Why did the cood Heaven never
give us any children?" asked the old
man of the old woman. 'It seems
stranpo that tipsy Peter Fctorviteh
should Lave four great eons, and i
none, and that women who know noth
ing of the care of a household should
have many daughters, while you have
not even one, Veda Nekrasof. '
"It is the will of Heaven, Vanza
Nekrasof." replied tho wife; but I
would be very glad to have a daughter.
She would bo sueli a pleasure- to us.
Fancy her, with her llaxeu hair just
what mine was whea I was girl her
round, blue eyes, and her plump, white
arms, pouring cut tea for us on a win
ter night, sitting here and singing to
us. We should dress her like a littlo
queen, for jou have plenty of money,
Vanza! anil if she married she should
have such a necklace of gold coin as
no girl in tho country has ever had." -
'Bah! and why should' she marry?
You women always think of that," said
the husband.
Well, she should not many, she
would love us too well; but she would
1 sought in marriage," said the old
uife. "We both come of handsome
families. My little lvanyetta would bo
a beauty, and so good."
Yes, Ivanyetta would be her name,'
said Vanza. 4,I like it. Hark! what
is that?"
"The beating of the snowdrift on the
door," said Veda.
'No, a knock," said Vanza.
He arose and weut to opea it. A
white figure stood without in the snow,
tall, slender, and seemingly wrapped in
white furs.
It seemed to Vanza to be no mortal
woman, j et he felt that it was no evil
thing.
"The Christmas days are coming,"
said the figure. "I bring you a present.
Take care of it. Give it to no other.
Swear?"
"I swear," said Vanza.
He held out his arms. The white
figure laid something in them. A great
drift of snow rushed in between them
as she did so, and seemed to sweep her
away
The next minute he stood within his
room, holding in his arms the most
beautiful child his eyes had ever rested
on.
"Heaven has heard us, Veda," he
said, "This is nothing evil; and, re
member, I promised never to give it to
anyone else."
Veda crossed herself and took the
bahejn her arms. A great mother-love
welled up in her heart for it; a great
joy, impossible to express. On the
next day Ihey had the child baptized,
and now they were happy, for no par
ents had a sweeter, lovelier child.
"The angels brought it from heaven,'
said the neighbors.
The littlo Ivanyetta grew apace. She
never disobeyed her parents. She was
devout and neat as well as beautiful.
When she was a tall, young maiden
with long, golden braids down her
back, she" allowed old Veda Nekrasof to
do none of the household work. Often
the old people sat beside the stove while
she sang to them and brought them hot
tea, and remembered the days when
they wished for a daughter. They were
very happy, but happiness cannot keep
age away. They grew old in twenty
years, for they were already long past
middle age when the child came to
them. And now the young men of the
neighborhood began to sue for tho hand
of Ivanyetta Nekrasof the tall, young
son of the doctor, the schoolmaster's
nephew, the young tea merchant, who
was believed to be so rich but to each
and all tho people said
We cannot give our child away.
We have made a vow before Heaven."
For a long while Ivanyetta was, glad
to hear them say so, but one day a
stranger came, a youth from Denmark,
who sang divinely, who said things to
her that no one had ever said before.
She lost her heart to him, and now it
seemed cruel to her that her fate should
be like that of no other maiden on
earth. She wept in secret, but she was
too good to disobey those whom she
knew as mother and father; and 60
they loved each other the young Dane
and herself, and waited.
"We are growing very old," said
Vanza Nekrasof; "in due time God will
take us away from earth. Then Ivan
yetta will be alone. We cannot give
her away, but after us it will be as God
wills."
"May you live long, my good father,"
said Edwin the Dane. "Meanwhile, I
will be a brother to Ivanyetta." And
so the years passed on, bringing no
change to the giiTs beauty. She was
fair and young, and delicate as ever,
while Edwin's soft moustache changed
to a long beard, and his shoulders
broadened and his frame grew taller.
She was thirty when Venza Nekrasof
and his wife one day fell ill of a fever
that swept through the village. It was
a pestilence which spared none that
it touched; but Ivanyetta kept her place
beside their bed and held their hands
to the last.
When they died she wept bitterly,
but the fever did not touch her. The
old people lay at rest at last. Their
forms were placed upon a bier in the
aisle of the old church. The neighbors
knelt, many of them weeping. Close
beside the bier knelt Ivanyetta, her
head cowed upon her hands. Edwin,
her lover, watched her from afar. She
had forbidden him to approach her.
The solemn service began. The more
reverent, veiled their eye3, but the
young people who looked up saw a
strange sight. The snow was drifting
through a window in the roof, and fall
ing upon the head and shoulders of
Ivanyetta. She did not stir. The
prayer went on, the music wailed over
the dead. The friends arose; all was
ready for the burial. But, behold! at
the foot of the altar the pile of drifting
snow, that half-covered the form of the
kneeling girl, arose toward the motion
less bodies of the adopted parents.
"Look, Edwin, look!" whispered a
friend. "Look!"
i The lover uncovered his eyes. He
had been praying and weeping; he
could hardly see.
"What is it?" he cried. "Is it a
mantle of white fur that has fallen on
Ivanyetta's shoulders?"
"It is snow from the window above,1
cried his friend.
Edwin rushed forward. But at that
instant tho doors were opened for the
bearers, who had lifted the bier to their
shoulders. A great drift of powdery
enow swept in. Some people afterward
said that they saw a woman in white
fur, with a child in her arms, following
in the funeral train; but from that mo
ment human eyes never again saw the
beautiful form of Ivanyetta Nekrasof.

Calabash Sam 'Why Ha Consented to Ab
ruptly Leave Gunnison City
Leadvillo Chronicle
Three mouths ago, when two hun
dred of the leading citizens of Gunnison
City met in convention on a street cor
ner, there were seven or eight Michigan
men among the crowd. When Colo
nel Parker presented the following res
olution it was a Michigan man who
supported it:
"Resolved, That a committee of five
bo appointed to wait upon Calabash
Sam, late of Deadwood, and inform
him that after sunrise to-morrow thin
crowd will open fire on him with the in
tention of furnishing a corpse for our
new graveyard." -
The committee of five went out to
find Samuel and deliver their message.
He sat on a bench at the door of his
sbanty, a shotgun across his knees and
a pipe in his mouth, and he preserved
silence while the chairman of the com
mittee read the resolution. Then he
asked:
"That means me, does it?"
"They don't like my stylo of carving
and shooting, eh?"
' "That's what they kick on."
"Well, I won't go. You haven't got
'nuf men in the whole valley to drive
Calabash Sam a rod. Return to the
convention and report that I'm here
for tho season."
"I forgot to menshun," continued the
chairman, in a careless voice, as he
leaned on his gun, "I forgot to menshun
that the convenshun hail adjourned.
The committee thus finds itself in an
embarrassing situation, and it sees only
one way out of it. Oiiless you'il agree
to pi k up and travel, thi3 committee
will feel called upon to to "
"To begin shooting, you mean?"
"Exactly, Samual, exactly! You
may have already observed that two of
the committee have got the drop on
you?"
"I s ;e."
"Corpses which are" riddled with
buckshot have a very unpleasant look,"
continued the chairman, a3 he rested
his chin on the muzzle of his gun.
"Yes, that's so."
And it's kinder lonesome, this being
the first plant in the new burying
ground."
"And so, take it all around, the com
mittee kinder indulges in the hopo that
you will see fit to carry your valuable
society back to the Black Hills. You
may have observed that three shotguns,
each under full cock, are now looking
straight at ye. We don't want to
bluff, but it's gitting nigh supper time."
Well, after looking " the matter all
over, I'm convinced that these diggins
won t pan out low grade ore, and I
guess I'll take a walk."
"Right off?"
Yes."
Right up this trail?"
Yes."
"Very welL While the committee
feels sorry to see you go, and wishes
you all sorts of luck, it hasn't time to
shake hands. Step off, now, and for
fear you ain't used to walking, we'll
keep these guns pinted up tho hfll until
you turn the half-mile, bowlder. ,Trala

PL Joseph (Mo.) News.
In St. Joseph was the western
terminus of railroad communication
Beyond tho. stage coach, the saddle
horso and the ox trains wero the only
.moans of commerce and communication
with tho Rorkv Mountains and the
Pacific Slope. "In the winter of 18G0
thcro was a Wall street loUbv at Wash
ington trying to get 91,000.000 for car
rying tho mail overlaud one j'ear "be
tween Now York and San Francisco.
The pro posit ion wasextremcly "cheeky,"
ittid William II. Russell, backed by
Secretary of War Floyd, resolved to
give tho lobl3' a cold shower bath. He
therefore oflcied to bet 200,000 that
ho could put on a mail lino from Sac
ramento to St. Joseph that should make
the distance 1,960 miles in ten daj's.
Tho bet was taken and tho 8th of April
fixed upon as tho day-for startiug. Mr.
Russell told his partner and general
manager of business upon the plains,
Mr. A. B. Miller, what he had done,
and asked if he could perform the feat.
Mr, Miller replied: "les, sir, I will do
it by pony express." To accomplish
this "Mr. Miller purchased 300 of the
ilectftt horses he could find in the West
and employed 125 men. Eighty of
those men were to bo post riders.
These he selected with reference to
their light weight and their known
daring and courage. It was very es
sential that some parts of the route
should be run at the rate of twenty
miles an hour. The horses were sta
tioned from ten to twenty miles apart,
and each rider would be required to
ride sixty" miles. For the change of
animals and the shifting of the mails
two minutes were allowed. Where
there were no stage stations at proper
distances tents sufficient to hold one
man aud two horses were provided.
Indians would sometimes give chase,
b:!i. their cayme ponies made but sorry
show in their stern chase after Miller's
thoroughbreds, many of which could
make a single mile in a minute and
fifty seconds.
Arrangements being completed a sig
nal guu-bn the steamer at Sacramento
proclaimed the meridian of April 8,
I860, the hour for starting, when Bor
der Ruffian, Mr. Miller's private saddle
horse, with Billy. Baker in the saddle,
bounded away toward the foothills of
the Sierra Nevadas, and made hi3 ride
of twenty miles in forty-nine minutes.
The snows were deep in the mountains,
and one rider was lost for several hours
in a snow storm; and after the Salt
Lake Valley was reached additional
speed became necessary to reach St.
Joseph on time. From here on all
went well until the Platte was to be
crossed at Julesburg. The river was
up and running rapidly, but the rider
plunged his horse into the Hood, onlv.

was nearly up, at least five thousand
people stood upon the river bank, with
eyes turned toward tho woods from
which the horse and its rider should
emerge into tho open country in tho
rear of El wood, one mile from the finish
Tick, tick, went thousands of watches!
The time was nearlv up! But seven
minutes remained! Hark! a shout goes
up from the assembled multitude. "He

A "Woman Outwitted.
in ino Central Uomt, London, a pris
oner accused of counterfeiting coin re
quested permission to ask a question
just before the case went to the jury
and the prosecution counsel conceded
the favor, or rather requested the judge
to concede it. Ihc prisoner was
straight, well-built fellow of 35, clearly
convicted on the evidence. "I wish to
ask the policeman," he said, ''on whose
information ho arrested me The
question was objected to as tending to
reveal detective's secrets. The prisoner
tried it-again: "Was it a woman who
gave you the information upon which
you arrested me?" A second time ob
jection was made, but the judge com
manded the officer to answer. "It was,"
he replied. "Do you seo her in court?
Is that the woman?" asked the prison
er, pointing to a rather showily-dressed
woman with handsome features, but a
cold, disdainful expression of face. "It
is," answered the policeman. "She is
my wife," the prisoner said, calmly,
and, receiving permission from, the
judge to say a few words, he added: "I
have served seven years on a similar
charge to that now preferred again
me. If I am again convicted you will
give me at least one and twenty years,
and that will end my life. Before you
do so I would like jou to know the
wholetruth of this affair. I married
young. My wife unexpectedly showed
extravagant tastes and very expensive
habits. I was very fond of her, and did
all I could to content her. Honestly I
could not keep pace with her desires,
and we took to coining. She was with
me in all my operations, aided in tho
work, assisted in passing the money.
When we were taken tho evidence was
just as 6trong against her as against me
in answer to questions l put to my
counsel 1 was told that if 1 pleaded
guilty and said I had compelled her to
help me, she would get on. I did so,
and she was acquitted. I was sen
tenced to seven years' penal servitude.
I served my full time, and came back to
London determined to lead an honest
life and restore my wife to an honest
home." He went on to tell how he had
iound her living with another man, a
former comrade named Foster, and had
forgiven her faithlessness after a des
perate struggle with himself, and had
set to work to earn an honest living.
The woman pleaded for delay in break
ing off her illicit connection, but finally
made an appointment to meet her hus
band and rejoin him. When she met
him she gave him a package to hold
while she went round a corner, ostensi
bly to bid good by to her lover, and re
turned with a policeman. Tho officer
took the former coiner into custody on
the woman's information, and the pack
age which she had put in his hand was
found to contain false silver coinage.
All this the prisoner told calmly and
clearly, and with a few questions the
judge tested the truth of it. He then
ordered the jury to acquit, and a sub
scription was taken np for the prisoner.
Life's Brief Candle-
This "death" business is a strange
affair. Hero we sit, smoke, chat, and
discuss with a friend to-day. To-morrow
we read of his death, and next day
send flowers to his funeral. What is it
that goes away from us? And being
out, where does the thing go to? It
doesn't seem exactly fair to put a fel
low here with faculties and chance3,
and just as he begins to see how to use
the one and improve the other to take
him away again. We had no choice
about coming, and we have none about
going. So where' the free agency idea
coming ia! . Howard.
