\\hcn I stalled on again , aftn lofting
twentj 01 thhty minutes , the moon which
was at Its full ,
now appealed at the vcifc
of the hoil/ou way below me at this lowci
end of the valkj , and began to light up the
tiall on the summit of the range , so that
In the cleat , cloudless sky objects weie as
distinctly visible as at noonday , though the
ntmosphuo and all natuie seemed tinged
with a silver sheen.
'llio tiall on the summit of the range ran
over n naiiow table land for = ovcial miles
nnd then entoicd the deep pine ami ccdai
foiest at the othci oxtiomlty of the chain
of great hills over which I was going A
rldo of twelve miles fuither , and 1 airlvcd
nt n lonely spot , entliclv denuded of timber
excepting u group of blasted cedars about
an acre In e\tont. Thcio , a feu months
before , A J. Dolm had been most biutallj
inuidcrcd by the Yalclmas , whose special
ngcnt he was He was shot In the back by
n relative of the chief , Kam i a-KIn , who
then out his throat killed his horse and
burned both bodies , together with whatever
other property was attached to either
The trail ran right through the accursed
place , but the Indiana themselves after
their crime , always superstitious , made a
dttour of some miles out of its way. The
whites , however. Mill traveled the oldei
nnd much shortei route. I arrived theie
Just as my vv'atch Indicated midnight SeatIng -
Ing mjsclf on one of the granite bowlders
scattered over the ground , attci clni'lilu , , '
up my saddle again. I lighted my pipe nnd
was about to enjoy the delicious fragrance
of sonio Lntakin tobacco which had been
given to mo the day before by un ofllccr
lately arrived from the states , when my
mare , which I was holding by the icln , gave
a convulsive shudder and nearly broke awaj
fiom mo I could not for a moment divine
what had caused her trepidation , for when
with me , although a most highly mettled
animal , she was usually as docile as a
kitten ,
Tbo moon was nearly over my head , and
I ga/cd uiound In wonder for some mo
ments to learn the cause of my pot animal's
ntrango action. Presently , on looking nt
the very center of the cluster of blasted
cedars , where It was alleged the cruel
murder of Helen had boon committed , 1
caw , not without some feeling of awe , at
least , two great green eyes staring at me
vllh a steadiness that was appalling. Per
a moment I was seemingly fascinated bj
the uncanny vision , when contemplating
the story of the crime which had been con-
EUinmutod there , but In another insUnt
nil sense of possible superstition vanished
ns I saw the bushes move and hoard tin
dead twigs lying on the ground crucK
ns If under Iho foot of some heavy ani
mal treading on them. In another Instant
I saw a monstrous cougar stealthll > crawl
out of the tangled mass of brushwood In a
douching attitude , her ( all slowly oscil
lating , us does that of the domestic' cat when
v\nulling a mouse hole.
The beast evidently then saw mo for the
first limn , and , ns Is natural to the spo
clcs , Instinctively diow back , as If to ll >
from the presemo of man. It was my beau
tiful maie the cougcr coveted , but sinlni ;
mo she deferred the fatal spring which shu
had contcinplaled at the moment her eves
first met mine.
I soothed Pctaliuna as best I could but
her trembling was not In the least abated ,
though she rubbed her nose against mj
ooat sleeve , an v.as her wont whenever I
caressed her She seemed a little more
passive ; that Is , she did not attempt thane
frantic jumps In her efforts to get awaj
that at first characterized her terrible fright
when she smclled the cougar , or bj some
Instinct she becalm' uwaiu of Us proximity
I cursed my luck for not bringing my re
volver wlih mo. or some sort of aims b >
which I might have killed the Impudent
beast , and vowed that I would never again
bo guilty of such stupidity There was no
tiKe , however of Indulging In vain regrets ,
what I had to do and do quickly , was to
get away fiom there as soon us possible , for
I did not Know how noon the ferocious brute ,
marly fmulshed with hunger , ma > bo. might
inaKv an effort to fasten Us horrid dawn
Into the Hunks of in ) mare , Ignoring my
presence entirely So 1 hurriedly KnocKcd
the tobacco out of mv pipe , and , Blinking
Vctaluma on the shoulder , mounted her as
rapidly ns 1 over had bcfoio In my life , and
was nu sooner scatenl firmly In the saddle
than , without n word or other impulse fiom
me , tlii ) made a bolt down the trail that
nearly throw ma over her head , at the same
Instant ece-ming to shrink convulsively In a
frantic effort to look behind her
I sympathetically turned my head around
and gazed at the bare hill top , this clde
of the blasted nduis , and to my horror
caw those great green e > es but a few rods
behind me , following my trail with a tort
of crouching , crawling motion , all ready ,
evidently , to sprint : the moment It had
covered the right distance.
About twelve miles ahead , on my trail ,
from where I had first seen the cougar , In a
lurrow valley , nurrouudcd bjr lofty uiouu'
lalns heavily timbered , tin' firtvoinmcnt
had eteetcd a block house and a corral. In
which wen herded a number of horses anil i
mules , to be uuil ns reln.vs between the i
mllltarv posts I 1m | ed that 1 should bo
able to make that point In about two houri
from the cluster of cedais. but now that
the lougai had intend ns n factor In mj
cnle-uhitlons. I did not Know whether I
should roach the Idoek house nt nil , or
majbe only on foot , with my beautiful
mare's bones luft on the tiall , picked clean
by the vlc'ous ' beast that was following
mo.
mo.When 1 noticed that the cougar was
ti aw ling In Its ciouthlng attitude behind
me , I had picsctiio ; of mind enough to think
It 1 icltud In my hoi so and made hot walk
It would Impress the cougar with the fact
that 1 was theie us well as the animal It
wanted to devout for Its late suppei I
could thvvntt Its designs , ns 1 felt confident
Hint , true to Its Instincts , It was realb
aftilld of mo , I succeode-d , with great dif
ficult * , howevei , In coaxing my marc Into
a slow wnlK , the effect of which resulted , an
1 Mummed It would. The cougar ceased , a
oiue , Its feaif.ul bounds , nnd settled Into a
shambling soil of a gnlt , dropping further
behind me nt the moment
Desirous of Knowing foi a ceitalnty
whethei Hi ) Indies weie the sudden cause
of the "inature's change of movements 1
agii'n ' artcd Petiilutii.i Into a quick 'fl"-- '
\lih the nld of mv quirt , and the instant
( he hurt ' at notliut the mate's renewed if-
rurts to get aw.-iv U < ommcnced Its foimer
notions. 1 then clniKctied my gait and to
nn Intfii'f s.itlsfiutlon. the cougar once
mom Ing ed bc'hlnd icnuwlng Its slow
movements nml seemed to bo now watchIng -
Ing the ildnr closer than It did the marc
1 did not ngili. dare to let Potaluma go
nnv fnstci tlmn a walk and during the whole
twidvo miles to the block house as long as
I maintained that slow gait the cougar
did not tiv to iptlng tow aid us.
Aftei continuing In that tlicsomo mannei
foi oliciul font hours I at last entered the
little vallev , and Just us 1 iodo out of the
luavv tlmbci into the bright moonlight the
teiilblo beast gave one awful roil and
turned back Into the forest , a sad nnd dis
appointed cougar.
I chiingcd animals at the block house
and iudi on to the liver without further
advcntiiie happy In having saved my beauti
ful 1'ctalumn , and possible m > self , from the
Jaws of the hungr > beast which had been
my unwelcome companion for so many
wcnij miles.

During the f-ovete winter of ! St2-rJ relates
a conoEpondcnt of the Philadelphia Times , a
man named Kitchen who was hunting don-
In the Kettle creek wilds was caught In a
hll//anl , und , after sttiiggling aiound foi
nianv hours and becoming almost dead from
exposure , chanced upon a small hut that had
hp ° n used b > tiappeis lli > 'vas horrified on

was occupied bj a big b'ack ' heal. He was
too veak to < r > and csiapn so concluding
that It wns no wruso to bc > killed li > a bi ai
than to bo fro/en to death , he lay down on
the ilnj floor The bear sniffed of his
fnvin whisUois nnd fiost-bttten face , then
almost paialoil Kitchen with suiprlsc bv
getting ilo-vn on bin "hunkers" ami blowing
his warm breath In the old hunter's face
Then he shambled about n fo.v minutes nnd
Ilnallj lay down across his feet thus tlnvv-
Inil out the benumbed oUrcmitle-s Kitchen
would undoubtedly have died there had It
not been for 'he ' Kindly oITlccs of the bear

Among the incidental features of the ponJ-

ton occupies a conspicuous If humble place
While the idea is not new , it liss ncvtr be
fore be-on so unlveisally popular. Dut UK
ciazc has assumed such pioportlons that the

political creed is almost a rarit ) In fact. In
an ordinary ciovvd H Is possible to foim a
vciy accurate estimate of its political com
plexion by a careful survey of the coat

plain buttons bearing a very imperfect lIKe

that there Is a much gioater variety in the
McKlnltj buttons than in the e that beai
Hrynn's name The reason for this Is found
in the fact that Iho demand foi the ( Irst
nimed Is three or fem times as heavy as
the demand for the Bryan Insignia Kven
In N'cbraska , whore it would be expected
that the demand for Hian buttons would be
above the average , McKlnlej eeems to have
the cull Dealers v.ho handle the articles
say that they sell three McKlnley buttons
to one I3ran , and recently the proportion Is
becoming even greater In fact , for the
past two weeks there has been scarcely an )
trade at all in lioan buttons One dralei
who has handled the bulk of the bmlncss has
his placed piled full of boxes of Ilran but

There are only two Hian buttons which

Is one of the few buttons that are really

which exhibit some phrase that has become

taken fiom the speeches of Major McKlnley
The button cro o has brought with It n

WAGiS DO NOT CHAXdi :
This fact about wages in Mexican money
Is of such unlverr l acknowledgment on the
Mexican border that It feccms like a waste
of good newspaper space to dwell upon It
The Mexican labor is the most patient In
the world It will cnduro that which will
drive the negro to revolt Perhaps tome
one will argue that It Is the fault of Mod-
cm labor that vugeg have not gone up as
silver has gone down. If so , what shall be
said of the thousands of Intelligent nnd In
dependent Americans In Mexico who con
tinue jenr after jcnr to give the same
amount of toll for the vnmo number of del
lars , whether those be 95-cent dollars or 4S-
cent dollars ? These ( ire- the facts. Let the
goldbug and the silver crank wrestle with
them for conclusions.
The Mexican dollar commands the same
amount of labor at 61 that It did at 110.
That labor mav be of untrained tmisili , It
mnv be skilled : It nmj be mental. If von
want a Mexican to shovel dlit > ou can got
him for 30 cents or10 cents n day , just ns
jou could twenty .vcars ago That 30 cents
or 40 cents Is Mexican money , the same In
face value , but of only half the actual value-
now that It was then. The Americans who
have sought fortune In this foreign land
are today working on Mev.ltan railroads
as machinists , engineers , conductors , tldtet
ngents , superintendents and pusldents for
the same amount of Mexican monev they
have hern roerhlui * dining a period of
jc'ars In whhh silver has varied betwion
03 and IS There aie OHH Americans on
the border who wntlt to see tlm United
States adopt free silver Thcie aie more
Ameilcans here who think free silver would
bo a great < nlnmlt > for their counti ; Hut
all ague on this. : IR an evident proposition ,
that wages nnd salaries in Mexican mono }
have not changed with the Ilu < tuition nf
silver lodnv , In verliliatlon of the propo
sition , nn otlliei of the Mexican National
rallioad hi ought out his hooks nnd showed
that for ten jcars Uie w.iges and salnilos
for various classes of labor , Ameilcin and
Mexican , paid In Movlcan money , had to-
