The original Ktory of her achievement, which was tout out during tho excitement Mibso cjuciit to the terrible conflagration, wus incomplete and fragmentary. The uunie of the Mibjcct of this little story is Freda Johnson, unci she Is one of slv children belonging to the Johnson family of Partridge, Minn. When it liccumo apparent that their home would be swept nwuy the old folks became lianic stricken. They were almost helpless from the binoUo which blinded them, and they were about to tuko rofuge in the cellar. They were per Euadcd to run for a small pon-l, situ ated a half inilo distant. In the ex citement Joe tho V." i -year-old baby, was forgotten. Ills sister Fiedu missed liim and ivturui'il in the face of tho terrible smolco to search for him. .She passed near him in tho yard, which Mirrouiidod tho house, and which was now in Humes, mid her quick car hoard lilsbcioams of terror above the roaring of the tempest mid Ihiiuos. She grasped him in her aims uml urn for her life und "Joe'.s." She reuclied the pond staggering under tho burden and gasping for breath, llor strength had ' almost failed her.

Shu Hew to her hide, but the woman wurncd her away, haying that she pre ferred to burn there to suffering thu same fate in the water. Freda grasped her half eraoil mother and pulled and pushed her olt the burning structure and finally got her to the water and safety. Freda did this last act at tho ruorlflee of her beautiful hair, which was streaming down her buck, and which was so badly burned It had to bo cut off at the nock. It is little short of ( a mliiiule that thu child stood so much , exertion under tho circumstances, for the heat and smoke were almost un bearable, She certainly displayed heroism of the purest typo.

Him Two hrhoolhoji In Oregon Killed a Mountain I.lon. "A recent lottor ill thoNowYorkSun, Josoriblng thu animals of tho Patago nlun plains, narrates somo Interesting haracterlstics of tho puma, or panther, which aro well known to people in regions whero ho abounds," said tho man from tho Hackles. "This Information of indisputable accuracy, upsets j-omo widely spread fallacies roiicorning tills boast. Ono of those, tho Idea that ho regards men as his natural prey, Is provalont among people whoso notion of tho forest lioiists havo boon formed from exag gerat 'd stories of the Hastorn panther, a tlivad topic of rural talos and of boys' reading since tho first settlors Invaded tho North American wilder ness. "Tho ferocity of tho pampas puma toward all other beasts and his gentle ness or four in rospoot to nian finds its counterpart in thu mountain Hon of tho ltoelcy mountain and Pacific coast rangos. This animal Is a larger beast than his relative of thu Kastern wilder ness, there known as tho panther. Tho mountain lion liko tho pampas puma, is terribly destructive to other wild animals and to ytiong live stock, but ovoopt in romance has novcr llg tircd as an animal dangerous to man. Owing to his shyness toward human beings tho mountain lion is raroly scon by man: though sometimes in mountain fastnesses a camper may hoar his wailing cry to his mate by night, and perhaps detect signs of his ptt-enoo about tlio camp, which, If pressed by hunger, ho may visit In tho hunter's absonco and make way with any meat left carelessly within reach. I.iko tho South Ainorican puma the mountain Hon Is often found upon tho plains, whore his presence Is soon niado known to ranchers by his ravages among tho colts and calves anil sheep. Ills llesh is white, and many North American hunters, liko tho gauehos, consider it good outing. "Th" mountain lion cub makes an attraotivo pot until hu becomes so largo as to bo formidable in strength. That point reached, whilo still amiublo toward his master, ho becomes unsufo for strangers to approach, and his liorco predatory Instincts are invot crately displayed toward animals which aro his natural proy.

Tho cubs aro born with faint markings of bars and spots, which disappear soon after tliolr eyes got open. "This disinclination of tho puma to attack man is often attributed to cow ardice, though an animal should hardly bo termed cowardly which will risk combat with tho grizzly boar, as thu puma Is known to do.
