Ofihaw it is not the purpose to speak at present, but to record his last grant flgnt, where Pat proved himself a very GetUnrran of & to M implacable foes.

Une or tnese. a a tenderfoot from Boston, had a great :desire to kill an Indian. John Korison was his'aaate. -He litUe knew how soon he woald getatore killing than he want ed and undergo an experience seklosa equaled in border tragedies, THE UOSTOMAK'8 CXKKBUKI TOUC. Otto afternoon, shortly after they, had gone into camp, they were attacked by a band of 5J0O or 400 dheveane braves with all the suddenness ana terrible ferocity peculiar to Indian, warfare. Hennessy saw them coming and instantly ordered the men to run for a canyon just west of the trail. They misunderstood the direc tion, and instead of west took the trail north. The mistake hastened their doom. Willi wild yells of savago delight the Indians circled around the three men. Korison was left behind in the race. He saw Indians on every side. No chance of escape, death certain. His alarm was over. The tenderfoot was a man. With a rapidity that indicated aprevio train ing.he raised his Winchester and fired into the Indians with shots so quick they almost seemed one. Deadly shooting, too, for five painted warriors had gone down, their death cry ringing out and mingling. with the dog Eke snarls of several who. were wounded. Ihe In dians returned the fire and the three white men fell. Old Pat saw the fight from his retreat intherocka. His mind had undergone a great change in regard to the aw from Boston, and as the savages rushed in to sualptbe three fallen mennisown deadly Winchester came to his shoulder, the sights caught the dusky form of a big Indian Just in the act of scalping Korison. The rifle belched forth its messenger of death, and a red fiend sprang high into the air, then sank down, still and dead. It was not that fiend of the plains, Black Scar, but another redskin, who, rushing forward to try for the scalp of Korison, met his own well deserved fate from the sureaimofPat. With yells of fury, the Indians left the three prostrate forms to attack their more formidahle enemy, and from the belts of three bucks there dangled the scalps of three whites. Henneesy was well prepared for de fense, an immense rock behind, rocks at the side and in front also, which was tint only point at which an attack could bs made, and there over the rock gleamed with deadly menace his 16-shot Win chester. Swift now and hot the fight Over 800 ngainst one, but that one cool, determined uad desperate, a Itost in him self. Into tho advancing horde go rifle balls on errands of death, killing and wounding as they tear through the red ranks. With insane courage the savages rush up within, ten yards of the rock. Pat no longer sighted his gun; he rests it on a rock, cocks it with hand and pulls the lever and trigger with the other, and point blank into the red devils be sends an almost continuous stream of leaden balls. They waver, break, retreat, but only for a moment. ins Finmo ceased. The chief has .been killed, but Black Scar takes command, waves aloft the scalp of Korison, points to the dead braves, calls for vengeance and orders the fight to be renewed. Thistimethe attack is made in front and at both ajdw. If they can scale the rocks at the sides, Pat will beat their mercy. From the death dealing point in front tho good old Winchester again pours forth, its terrible destruction, and at the loud command of Black Scar they surge round in front, face to face with their dunperate foe. Pat's revolver, a self cocker, does deadly work, fired into the yelling mass ten feet away, the last load gone, and again the Winchester at close range covers the ground with dead and dying. The red monsters are forced back from that death vomiting rock, back from a single gun, back from one man, back from brave Pat Heanessy. 'In a few moments the whole band would have fled, when suddenly the fir ing ceased. Pate gun had become so dirty and hot by such constant firing that, horrible to relate, while attempting to put in a cartridge it stuck fast and could not be forced either in or out. The In dians supposed he was out of ammuni tion and with savage yells rushed in to secure their prize. Pat met tlii-ni with clubbed gun, and broken heads and Umes were plenty as they came within sweep of his strong arms ui the death struggle; but tltose behind still pressed on atiuhe wan soon overpowered and secured. In furiated at the kiss of 8omany of their number, they took poor Pat, tore his scalp from lus head, bound him to one of his own wagon wheels, emptied sacks of oats around him and set them on fire. Just as they commenced their devilish torture' and dance around their victim they beard a shot echo from the dis tance. The alarm was raked that the soldiers were coming and the stampede at once began. Picking up the wounded and some of Hie dead, the Indiana mounted their banes and scampered off. The evening shades gathered darkly and all was etfll as the fire burned, and the spirit of brave Pat passed away and found rest in the land or the hereafter. There be was buried the next day by some other t freighters. The bodies of thirty dead Indians were also found and were afterward removed by their red brothers. Pat was known as a brave His friends have erected a head simply inscribed with lus name and date of bis death.

It would be well, therefore, forall per sons addicted to alcoholic stimulants to avoid the place, as a sight of the monster might induce "snakes" of a diameter even more horrible than the one on ex hibition.

He ogled the girl for some time before she took note of it, but when she did she made short work of him. She rested her 6teady eyes upon hk person, but never permitted their range to reach above the top of hk collar, and gave every appearance of a lively and critical interest in him. In a moment the young man was daunted; in .two more he was routed. An- ex pression of pain clouded hk face, and he scanned Ids extremities with deep anxi ety.

In numerable dozens of them are flowing out Into the world continuously from the factories, and a singk expert packer handles 72,000 of them in a day, racking 100 boxes at a cent a box. They are made of ash, beech, birch and maple. The logs are cut into lengths of fl inches, these are sawed into blocks, the blocks into sticks, and the sticks into shorter ones, the length of the clotbes.pin, about 6 inches. These are fed into a lathe by an endless belt. The lathe turns them into shape .and passes them alocby a turn table to a saw, which cuts out the slot, When the machine k through with them it drops them into a box or barrel. Tho pins are then dried in a drying house and then put, 90 to 40 bushels at once, into a slowly revolving cylinder, and tho friction caused by their tum bling about in thk cylinder polishes them. A singk plant for ring clothes pins costs from $7,000 to $12,000. But what becomes of the pins? Good House keeping.

"I came to thk snot. sad. down, took a knur dramrht of White Iliad my head bent down in the stream I caught the impatient stamp of feeding deer, and heard the nnmkta rthk littie wheezy cough they sometimes give while eating. I cautiously withdrew be hind one of the large trees to my close neighborhood and stok a glance over in the direction of the sound. There were three does, a pegbuck and the paterfa milias, with a pair of antlers that mads my huntsman's instinct almost too stronr to keep me quiet.

I very sensibly concluded that as they were browsing over in my direction, any movement on my part would simply stampede them, andl satisfied myself as well as I could in observing their movements. "The sun was just about setting, and its last rays were falling full in the en trance to the valley, when there loped into sight another buck, equal in every point save of attendance to the fat fel low I had oeen admiring. Buck number one stood rigid and erect as he came in sight, and blew out on the still air a snort of defiance that checked number two, wbo had not seen lum, almost as enrectuauy as tz I had turned loose my 48rifleonhim.

Ashe stepped out toe. inirudmgbuckpansed ror a wmie to measure ms roe. Tney gazed at each other angrily for a mo ment, and then .made a mutual rush, coming together with a shock that made the little valley ring with its force. I almost imagined that some occult force had separated them, for they fell on tneir knees nrteen good paces apart. They did not remain in that position long. They were up and at it again in a trice. They fought with a ferocity that I have never seen equaled. I could hear every lick as it was deliv ered, sometimes on the side, sometimes on the rump, and when a lick was par ried on the boms it sounded like drop ping a load of fish bars on a stone pavement. Such vicious lunges you never saw. The velvety coats were torn and ripped from withers to rump, and blood was running from side, as well as mouth and nostrils. Down would go a bead, and an upper cut would fall prone upon the stomach that I thought must be fatal. Bang would go a whok forest of horns into a side, and number one or two would fall upon the ground, white quick as lightning the up deer would slash at hk fallen adversary with hk sharp front teeth, cutting like a knife. INCONSTANT DOES. "The does and the peg stood by as inunovable as the big trees, save now and then they would open their lips and give a piteous bleat as their champion would get worsted in the fight. Buck number two fought with a grim deter mination, to show that the odds of favor from being in the presence of hk ad versary's harem should not count against him. Back and forth waged the contest; now there would be a lull as they locked horns for a breathing spell, white their eves, red with anger, would flash into each other from beneath their intertwining antlers. Now they would break apart, then a lunge, and now a vicious counter. The fight waged for twenty minutes, when suddenly buck number two, the intruder, got in a long; vicious dig that tore hk adversary well across the side. He fell with a pitiful cry of distress, and number two stood over him for a few moments, then made several cuts to hk already bleeding side, and, turning, walked over to hk pros trate enemy's family. "They licked hk wounds ss tenderly as if be, the victor, had always been their lord and master, instead of themurderer of their long while guardian and friend. "I was so indignant that I drew my knife and made a senseless rush for toe victorious bock, causing the whole herd to scatter to wild fright.
