OLD SIEGEL AND HIS SON. Many years ago, wlillo making n tour througTt that boiiutlful tractof mountuln scenery In tho noutli of Bavaria 'known as tho Saltzk-aninu'rgut, I stayed for a fortnight nerchtcsgaden. I sp'nt much of my timo therein (ishlnu; for gray ling nnd in talking to tho chamois hunters, with many of whom I had uiadtMiciia!ntance during n previous visit. I used often to sit for hours listening to their hunting stories, and on ono occasion 1 hunted with them. Tho mountains Immediately around Berchtcsgaden nro keptns n royal cham ois preserve, nnd as tho king wns ex pected to arrivo shortly, none hut his majesty's own jaegers were allowed, dur ing tho timo 1 was there, to disturb the cljamols. I was, however, very anxious to have at least ono day's sport, nnd arranged with old Siegel and his bon Franz, chamois hunters whom I had known for sotno time, and on whom I could depend, to havo a " jagd" on tho morrow. Siegel persuaded (Jotting, a friend of his, to como with us. Wo started early in H10 morning, and after tolling for several houru up through tho dark pino woods, which became moro scant nnd scrubby tho higher we wont, emerged at last on tho open snow fields. Wo now separated; Franz and Clotting mado a long detour to tho left, while Sjegel nnd I hastened on to reach some 'commanding position ubovo in caso any chamois woro driven up. After an hour's more climbing wo halted on the top of a precipice, which, shaped in the form of q crescent, made a completo cul do sac for any chamois driven up by our friends below. Wo had hardly been watching ten minutes when two chamois appeared in sight, bounding up tho mountain side and coming directly toward us. When tho foremost had como within rango 1 fired and missed, as most men would havo done, Tiring as I did nt so small an object from a height almost perpendicu larly abovo it. Tho beasts turned, and, springing with wonderful speed over tho sharp rocks, wcro coon out of sight. I fired a second' shot just as they wcro disappearing, and think I Gtruck ono of thcui, but it con , trived to get away and wo novcr saw it again. - Siegel and I, somewhat crestfallen, ' trudged on up tho mountain, keeping n sharp lookout on all sides and halting now and then to givo tho others timo to ovcrtako us. Suddenly wo hoard, far down below us, a shot, and then ell wan again silent. Wo wero much surprised, as it is ono oi .ho first rules l:i thb kind of liuntins novcr. except when absolutely necessary, even to raiso tliu voice, much less, oi course, to firo a riflo, which scares the chamois completely. Wo know that (Jotting end Franz, di rectly below us as they were, could not possibly havo seen a chamois, as oui shots must havo driven them rmitoout o reach. After a minuto'o anxiety listen ing, wo fancied wo heard shouts, and fearing wo knew not what, called loudly Franz's name. Wo then heard and this timo quite distinctly tho voice of Dotting saying, "Como down! como down! It is nil over! Franz has shot himself I" Siegel and I wero standing together anklo deep in tho snow. ' I glanced into his face, and think I shall never forgot tho look of misery I saw there. Before knew what ho wns about, ho had seized his rifle, had presented tho muzzle to his head, and was feeling witli his foot in a frenzied manner for tho trigger. I snatched tho pieco away just in time: ho did not try to recover it, but throw ing himself on tho snow, hurst into a most passionate, most eloquent torrent of praise of his son's many virtues. Ho told mo what a good eon ho had always beon to hiui, anxious to fulfill his slight est wish. I at length succeeded in partially sooth ing him, nnd in rousing him to action. Wo scrambled down as fast as wo could, guided by Ootting's shouts. It was a long timo befnro wo reached tlictn; lo mo it seemed an ago. I nccuscd myself of being tho author of ull this misery, nnd my anxiety wns heightened by tho reflecticn that wo were in reality poaching, nnd wo should very likely, in consoquenco of this misfortune, get into troublo on our return. Wo found poor Franz lying si lot through tho back and in great painnmongstunted "knicholz" a plant something liko our whinbush. It appeared that he had, con trary to all jaeger rules, carried his rifle capped, nnd that in walking through the kuleholz ho had stumbled and fallen, und his riflo had somehow or other exploded, causing a tovcro wound. We stanched the blood as well as wo could with our handkerchiefs, and then held a consultation. (Jotting said he knew of a chalet somo way oif to which ho thought wo might manago to carry Franz. I lifted him up as carefully as possiblo, and walked for somo way over the abomlnablo kuleholz, which threatened to trip ono up every moment. 1 man aged, I think, to go about two hundred yards with my burden, and then, ex hausted, had to lay him down. Ilia father tried to carry him next, hut un nerved and half blinded by his tears, had also soon to givo it up. (Jotting was tho only ono of the party who could carry Franz for any great length of timo over tho rough ground wo ncro now compelled to traverse; ho was a small man, but seemed to bo all wire and mttsclp. It was, however, evident that nt tho 6lov paco wo wero obliged to go wo should never, oven if wo knew tho exact direction which, by tho way, nono of us did get to tho chalet before nightfall. Somo other arrangement must bo made. Uctting proposed that lie should stay with tho wounded man, while Siegel and I should go forward and attempt to reach tho chalet. (Jotting was the only one of the party who had ever been there, and that was years before. lie gave us directions how to find it. W wa bm U tits sight or laf t of certain peaks lie pointed out to us, ana theii he said wo should see a largo Held of snow. Wo wero to cross tills, and tho chateau was In a hollow about half a mile abovo and to tho left. Well, we started Siogcl and I leav ing all the provisions except a few sand wiches witli Franz and (lotting. A weary walk brought us to tho peak where, according to (lotting, wo wcro to see tho snow lield. But llieru was noth ing of thu sort there: peak rose ujion peak, hut llioro was no groat, level snow Held stretching nway at our feet, sucli as lie hud described. Wo looked ut each other in dismay. Toadd toourdistrcKs tho weather, which had hitherto been lieautlful, began to get overcast. Light wreaths of mist wcro settling on tho higher summit of the mountain, suio signs of n coming storm. However, thero wa3 110 uso in going back. Wo should perhaps not bo able lo find Franz nnd (lotting again if, bewil dered as wo now were, wo attempted to get back to them. Our only chanco was forward. Tired and dispirited wo walked on, turning round only to look at tho gath ering clouds which wero now piling themselves dark and threatening behind us. Tho wirftl, too, began to rise. Wo determined to go downward; indeed wo were too much exhausted lo go any higher or wasto any moro timo in look ing for tho chalet. Tho ground seemed to get moro rough tho lower wo went, und the tremendous gusts of wind wliicli whistled round us mado tho descent most dangerous. Great, spattering raindrops now began to fall and wo halted on a ledgo of rock, utterly worn out. Tho storm increased nnd in a short timo was at its height. Tho rain came down in torrents, completely drenching us. The lightning with blinding flashes played all round, hissing and Illumining for nn instant tho awful grandeur of the scene, while tho thunder pealed and crashed overhead, each crag and wall of rock echoing tho sound nud increasing it an hundred fold. Wc had thrown our rifles away, afraid that tho lightning would striko them, nnd stood waiting for tho storm to abate. When wo resumed our descent wo were trembling with cold in every limb. The air, which was warm enough before, was now piercingly cold and tho wind drovo snow nnd hits of ico against our faces with blinding force. I went flrst, and foru long timo neither of us spoke. Only when a particularly dangerous placo was crossed I gavo the warning, "Look to tho right!" or "To the left!" n3 the caso might be. Siegel led tho way when I was tired, and thus wo proceeded with tho greatest caution, as a false step would havo been almost certain death, till wo got to more level ground. Hero wo again encountered thickets of knicholz. Wo wero already congratu lating ourselves on having got tho worst over, when wo wero suddenly Btopped by a preclpico or "Wand," down which it would havo been impossible for a goat to go. It was a sheer descent of at least eighty feet. This was a dreadful disappointment. Wo walked along tho edgo fcr somo way, but us far an wo could see tho Wand ex tended for miles. I had already thrown myself on tho ground and had given up all hopes of life, when a shout from Siegel, who had gono on a littlo way, mado mo onco moro spring to my feet. I hastened to him. Uo was standing over a narrow I10I0 in tho rock almost hidden by bushes of tho knicholz. "Wo aro saved! tvo nro saved!" lie cried. Ho explained to mo how, when I hail given up In despair, ho suddenly thought that ho remembered tho place wo wero In, and had remembered, too, that if it wcro indeed the part of the mountain ho supposed it to ho, thero wr.s a circular hole In tho rock forming tho Wand by which tho chamois hunters scaled tho otherwise, inaccessible place. Ho had gono on, had found tho opening, nnd fearful of losing tho spot had stood over it und called till I cauio. Wo slid safely down this chimney like hole, which Is not much moro than twenty feet in depth, and easily descend ing thu lotvor part of tho Wand, which Is hero much broken, arrived, famished and half frozen, at 10 o'clock at night, at a woodman's hut Siegel knew of in the valley below. Hero wo obtained warmth and shelter. Threo of tho woodmen immediately started up tho mountain and returned in a few hours witli poor Franz, who was very much exhausted, not so much from cold as (Sotting had contrived lu light 0 lire, and they had provisions as from loss of blood. 1 onco asked Siegel what ho would have dono if ho had not found that open ing. "Wo should," ho said, "havestruck our alpenstocks into theground, nnd have walked round them all tho night to keep off sleep, which if it conquered us would, of course, havo been fatal. If wo lived till day broko tvo should havo tried to And our way back to tho others." Whether wo wero likely to succeed In so doing, cold, hungry and exhausted as wo were, tho reader may judge. As for Franz, ho completely recovered from his wound and I havo hunted many a timo witli him sinco that memorable day. Tho Marquis of Lorno in Youth's Companion.
