Here is au account of what Anthony
Hope went through at an Indianapolis
tea lu his honor, says the Critic: One
woman say: "I am very happy to meet
ou. I've heard a great deal about you
and your books, bat I've never read any j
of them." "Yoi! have not lost anything
madam." Mild he. "I'm very happy to
meet you" said a bright girl, "but I'm
sorry you don't like women." "How
do you know I do not like women?";
"Oli. breaiise I saw it In the paper this
morning." "The article was not signed,
was it?" asked Mr. Hawkins. "1 am
very glad of the opportunity to meet
you this afternoon, Mr. Hawkins," said
a married lady, "because I have an en
pngemeut anil can not go to hear you
tonight. I've read your stories Plicn
1 will not spoil any good Impression
yon may have formed of the stories."
"Oh I wanted to have the Impression i
strengthened." and after she walked
away she said to her friend, "1 wonder i
If that last speech of mine was compli
mentary." "You are not half as old-
looking as I thought you would be," I
said another. "1 thought you had
white hair." "I am sorry to disappoint
you. madam," said he. "What stories
ate you going to read from to-night.
Mr. Hope?" The author told the ques
tlnricr. "The Pi isoner of Zcnda" and
"The Dolly Dialogues." "I wish you
were going to read something else, for
those are the only stories I have read
of yours." said she.

the color Is a dlrlj or brownish red,

Up every estlge of the neM, where

while they omit plaintive shrieks, darts

young eagle to gain lis full and com
plete plumage, ami for the development
of Its strength, once full grown, pro
vided he docs not meet with a violent
death, au eagle should live between 30
and I ilO years. Ip In the mountains
the eagle finds It as hard to gain sub
sistence as do the feathered grumblers
of the plains below. The precarious
ness of his existence and the wild man
ner in which food Is galheied seem to
give tlio bird greater ferocity the older
It grows The eagle ranges among the
mountains and valleys lu pairs, their
young never following them, but doing
the best Ibey cm by themselves. The
stern, uiihociablo tyranny of the older
birds, beginning with the casting out
of the eaglels, manifests Itself In later
.years lu their treatment of their
' mates. If the male bird be the strong
er, mortt of the prey belongs to him,
and he allows the femnle to eat but a
paltry share between llerce thrusts of
his beak. If the female & the strong
er (mill she generally is), the male bird
cowers and winces under many a fierce
blow from his unfiellug wife, no mat
ter how small the morsel ho Is trying to
get. Rut when danger threatens, no
hiiiiMii pair battle so formidable for
themselves ami for each other as do
two eagles. It Is a noteworthy fact
Hint each male has but one mate dur
ing his life lime. If the female Is killed
or captured, the surviving male be
comes au eagle hermit, and fiercer than
ever.
Eagles are often seen near their
nests' together, but when the sun Is
saining, they frequently take their ma
jestic flights straight toward It. until
they disappear fiom sight. Sitting up.
uu tho mountain side their vision Is ho
keen they can see far down tho valley
a sheep or young goat, a big turkey or
rooster, a smnll pig, a rabbit, or par
tridge, and almost Instantaneously they
descend upon their victim. Often.wiieu
a largo calf or goat Is to be attacked,
and carried olf. four or six of the grim'
birds will unite ami icmovo the carcass
to a s"fe spot, where they will Imme
diately begin to fight It out to sec which
of them Is entitled to the choicest blu,
and It Is truly a survival of the fittest
lu Mich combats as these. Rut an eiglo
Is always confident of his strength nnd
rarely overreaches himself In such con-
iiicts or in ins uesiie for prey. When
lingering by the mountain rivers
watching for ducks or geese or even
iisii, a pair or eagles will display their
natural shrewdness. They swoop from
opposite directions upon tho fowi.whlch
tries to escape by diving, nnd could out
wit ono eagle, but suddenly as the bird
comes to the surfaco of tho water ihe
liecond eaglo seizes him,
With Its wonderful power of sight,

combines a swiftness of fllulit equally

but requested her to be In al 10, the

At a quarter ikisi that hour, In h'r

she said: "Well, you aro a nice police
