A Thrilling Adventure
BY AUT11UB I MKSF.rtVE.
Tim fnllnwintr storv is taken, wori for
word, from tho note-book of a traveler :
"Aundventuro befell mo yesterday that
will haunt mo to my dying day.
" If 1 ever camo so near to deatli before, I
had no ltuowledeo of it ,
" 1 shudder now as I sit hero recording it,
with Iho firo burning brightly upon the
hearth, and light, warmth and comfort all
around mo. Yesterday morning I set out
from my residenco to como hither.
" I was told that tho road was bad j but
this information did not deter me from set
ting out.
" My horso was a strong one, nnd I felt
that ho was abundantly able to carry me
through.
" Bo at an early hour I set oft", determined
to mako the journey, if I could, before tho
darkness should again como flown. I
" For tho first few miles tho road had been
very fair) but when I entered tho forest
through which I had to pass I found that
haste would bo no part of my programme. I
'"Tho snuw was deeri. and. Hacked but
verylittloj nnd, what nlado it worse, there
was 4 tharp crust, that cut the legs of my
horso at every step.
" This interfered with his travclinc do
much that it required a cood deal of urging
to keep him in a Blow trot.
" It was a vcrv weary day for both of us : I
but at last it wore away, and the shadows of
nlght began to gather nrottnd.
" Sinco noon I had not passed a single
habitation.
" Tho forest stretched away before mo;and
I saw no sicn that I was approaching any
dwclling-placo of man.
"On and I plodded, at a slow walk,
whilo the shadows of night gathered thick
about me. Hut tlio darkness was era long
ilispellcd by the rising of tho moon, which
sent a Hood of light down into tho forest, so
my way was rendered almost as light and ns
plain before mo as it was before tho night
ct ! . I
A llltle Inter. Hilda sound fell unon mv
ears, which sent a thrill through my entire
being,
" Jt was the cry of wolves I
" In au instant I realized tho danger that
I was in. My horse, as though ho did, also,
pricked up his cars and started off at a better
Kice.
" Again tho cry came, louder and more
distinct than before. It told mo that tho
bloodthirfety brutes had scented us out, and
were in full pursuit.
" Should they but como up with usj thcro
was not ono chauco in a hundred that wo
could escape.
" Our only safety lay in getting oil as last
as twssible, and distancing them,
" But this, I felt was next to impossible,
with a horto so tired as nlino.
" Yet it was my only hope; rit'.d, giving
hint a sham cut; he sprung onward.
" But m less than a dozen rods ho had
fallen into a Walk again, out of which neith
er whip nor spur, nor tho cry of tho wolves,
could stir him.
(f Tlinn flin Inllli. which T bad loin? SUS-
pected, was forced upon me ho was com-
lete v t red out.
I east a riauco backward, and shuddered
as I did so.
" Tlio wolves vr ore so near that I could see
their shadowy forms a they canto gliding
onward tkounh tho trees.
" Again I did my host to urgo itiy horso
onward, but with as ill success as before.
" A miuuto later and I emerged into an
opctl space, oii tlio bank of tho river whoso
courso I had been following for tho greater
..fibn .t,iv.
