Here is what was recounted to na by the olil JIaninte d'Arvillo nf ter iliimrr at tho bouse nf tlio Baron tlos Unvels. Saint-Hnlicrt. Wo bad started n stag dntiiur tho day. The manniis was tho only one of tho guests who had not taken part in tlie pursuit. He never indulged in the chase. During the entire limo Of tho repast wo had talked of little else than tho massa cre of animals. Even the women inter ested theinselvel in the sanguinary and often incredible tales, nnd the speakers mimicked the attacks nnd the combats between men and beasts, gesticulating with their arms and conversing in ex cited tones. M. d'Arvillo siioko woll, with n cer tain air of poetry, a trifle sonorous, but fall of effect. lie had often repeated this history, therefore ho spoko fluently, not hesitating to lind choice wordi in which to depict his images. Messieurs, he said, "I have never hunted, nor did my father, my grand father or my great-grandfather. This last was tho son of a man who bunted more than all of you. Ho died in 1701, I will tell you how. lie was named Jean, was married and was the father of this child, who was my great-grandfather, and he lived with his younger brother, Francois d'Arville, in our chateau in the midst of forest in Lorraine. Francois dAr- ville had remained a bachelor through love of the chase. Those two hunted from one year a end to the other, with out repose, without stop, without lassi tude. They loved nothing else, under stood nothing else, talked of nothlnc else, lived for nothing else than tho chase. This terrible, inexorable passion possessed them to tho heart, had invaded them entirely, leaving no place for any thing else. iney una proiUDited auy one irom interrupting them during tho chase for any purpose whatever. My great grandfather was bom while his father was following o fox, andjean d Arville, Instead ot interrupting tho run. swore, 'In the name of the saints, the rascal might better havo waited until after the bunt!' "His brother Francois was even more carried away by this passion than him self, From tho time he arose in tho morning he went to see tho dogs, then tho horses, then the shot birds in the im mediate vicinity of the chateau, up to tho time of leaving to start some largor gamo. They wero known throughout tho neighboring country as JL lo Mar quis and M. le Cadet, the nobles of that day not endeavoring like thoso of our own time to establish a descending hier archy in titles; liccauso the son of a mar quis is no more a count, nor the son of a viscount n baron than the Ron ot u gen eral is a colonel by birth; but tho shab by vanity of our day finds profit in this arrangement. I return to my ancestors. "They were, it appears, huge, long. hairy, violent nnd vigorous. Tho yonug- er, oven taller than the eldev, had a voice so strong that, according to a legend of which ho was tho hero, all the leaves of tho forest trembled when ho shouted. And when they leaped into the saddle to depart for the chaso it was a superb spectacle to see .theso two giants bestriding their great horses. "Now, toward the depth of the win ter of this year, i'tH. the cold was exces sive and tho wolves became ferocious. They attacked the lielated country peo ple, wandered around Hie nouses at night, bowling from the setting to tno rising of tho sun, and depopulating the stables. 'And noon a weird rumor .'irculatwl They talked of a colossal wolf, with gray hair, almost white, who had eaten two children, devoured a woman a anu strangled nil tho watchdogs of the country, and who lieuetrated without fear into tho iuclosures to snilt nnucr the doors. All the inhabitants declared that they had heard bis snuffle, and that It had made the flames of the lamp' flicker. And soon a panic ran through all tho province. Nobody dared go out after nightfall. Tlie darkness seemed to be haunted by images of the beast. "The d Arville brothels resolved tv, find this animal nnd kill it, and they ac cordingly summoned all the gentlemen of the country to a grand chase. It was in vain. They hunted tho forest over and searched the thickets, but did not encounter it. They killed plenty of wolves, but not this ono. And each night, after the chase, tho animal, as though to nvongo itself, attacked eomo traveler or devoured some cattle, always far from the place whero they had been searching for it. At last ono night it penetrated the pig stable of the Chateau d'Arville and nta the two finest porkers. The two brothers were inflamed with anger, considering this attack as a bra vado from the monster, a direct injury, a defiance. They took nil their strong bloodhounds, accustomed to the pursuit of redoubtable beasts, and entered the chaso, their hearts provoked to f ury- "From dawn until the hour when th purple sun descended behind the great, bare trees, they beat tho thickets with out findiu anything. Finally, both furious and deoolate, and astonished Ui.it all their skill bad been baffled by this wolf, they were walking their liorb along a path bordered by bushes, when they were suddenly seized by a sort of mysterious fear. " 'This beast is not au ordinary one,' said the oldect. 'One would almost say that ho had human attributes.' " 'We should have a ball blessed by our coiv-in. the bishop,' said the younger; 'or have some pri wt pronounce the nece, sary w erdt.' He ceased speaking. " & how red the snn is,' replied Jean. "The big .wolf will do some wickednast-this night.' "He had hardly spoken these words . of all In Leavening Powtr Latest U. S. Gov't K'. when his borne reared; Hint of Frauoois began kicking. A large clump of bushes covered with dead lnnesonouoA l front lot them, nnd n cnlo.nnl lmist. all gray, ("sprang up nnd ran off into the woods. twin uroiupra oinitceit a nori or joyous grunt, and lwnding over tho chests of their stupid hoine.i they throw them for ward with nil their strength, rushing them ahead at sm-h n pace, exciting them, urging them on with voice, ges ture nnd spur, that the powerful riders leemed to carry their heavy beasts lie tween their thighs, nn-1 lo lift them up ns though they would lly away with them. They went thiw. lielly to tho ground, breaking thiwifh tho thicket, crowing tho ravine, climbing the hill-.. descending Ihgleni n snunding the uorn wnn inn inn;;-, lonurait tne at tention of their companions and their dogs. 'All of a midden, in this wild run, my great-great-grandfather dashed his foro licod ngninstnu enormous brunch, which split his skull, and he fell to the ground stone dead. HU horse, mad with fright, disappeared in tho shadows that cn- veloiel the wood. "The younger d Arvillo stopped short, jumped to the ground, seized his brother in his nrms mm saw that his brains were pouring from tho wound, with his blood. Then be heated himself beside tho body, took the red nnd disfigured head upon his knee nnd contemplated tho immobilo face of his elder brother. Little by little a fear invaded him, n singular fear which he had never felt before; the fear of the shadow, tho fear of tho solitude, fear of tho deserted wood, also, fear of tho fantastic wolf which had killed his brother to vengo it self upon them. Darkness was falling rapidly, and the sharp cold matin the trees crackle. Fran cois roso up shivering, incapable of re maining there longer, feeling himself almost fainting. Ono could hear noth ing, neither tho voices of the dogs, nor tho sound of bonis; all was silent. And this gloomy silence of freezing night had in it something horrible and strange. He seized tho colossal frame of Jean in hlslianda, lifted it upnnd laid itacross the saddle, in order to carry it back to tho chateau. Then he slowly started to return, his mind wandering as if lie wero tipsy and pursued by horrible nnd startling images. Suddenly in his path way through the night a monstrous form passed. . It was tho beast. 'A shock of fright agitated the hunt er; something cold, likoadropof water, glided along his loins, and, liko a friar haunted by tho dovil, ho mado tho 6ign of tho cross. Ho was distracted by this sudden reappearance of tho frightful wanderer. Dnt his eyes fell upon tho inert corpse lying before him, and bis fear immediately changing into cholcr, ho shook with rage. Then ho sparred his horso nnd dashed utter the wolf. He followed it through tho copse, through ravines nud through the forest, travers ing woods which ho no longer recog nized, hi3 eyo fixed upon tho gray spot which flow before him in tho night. His horso also seemed animated by an un known forco and ardor. He galloped straight ahead with outstretched neck, tho head and feet of the dead man across tho saddle dashing against trees nnd rocks. The brambles tore tho hair of tho corpse, the forehead battered the enormous treo trunks, spattering them with blood, tho spurs ripped the lark to tatters. "Suddenly tho animal and its pnrsner emerged from the foiwt nnd rushed into a valley just us tho moon appeared nbovo tho mountains. This valley was closed on nil sides by immense rocks, without possiblo egress, nnd the wolf found it self driven into a corner. Francois then emitted a howl of joy, the echoes of which wero repeated liko n roll of thun der, nnd jumped from his horse, cutlass in hand. The bristling beast waited with rounded back, its eyes gleaming liko two stars. But before offering bat tle tho hunter lifted his brother down, seated him on a rock, and supporting by means of stones his head, which was hardly more than n patch of blood, ho cried into his oars, as though ho was speaking to a deaf person: " 'Look, Jean; look there!'" "Then ho threw himself upon the monster. He felt strong enough to overthrow n mountain, to grind the stoned in his hands, Tho beast wonld havo bitten him nnd tried to dash at his stomach, but Francois had seized it by the throat, without even the aid of hia weapon, and slowly strangled it, listen ing to Iho stopiugo of the breathing in its throat nnd the lieatini of its heart, And bo laughed wildly, c losing tighter nnd tighter hts powerful grip nnd cry ing in n delirium of joy: 'Look, Jean; look!" "All resistance ceased; tho body of tho wolf became limp. It was dead, Then Francois took it up in hia arms, carried it and threw it it his brother's feet, repeating in a tender voice: " 'Thine, thine, thine, my little Jean; there it is!' "Then placing the two cadavers ncrose his saddle, ono upou the other, ho set out on his way back. He returned to the chateau laughing and crying like Qargantua at the birth ot Hantagrucl, emitting cri of triumph, stamping with joy in recounting the death of tho ani mal, groaning nnd tenting his beard in telling that of his brother. And often in after ymre, when he spoko of that day, he declared with tears in his eyes: " If only ,aor Jean could have seen me strangle the brnte, I am sure he would havo died contented.'

One day, when a herd of 0,000 cuttle was -'nnred near the Salt Fork of the Arkamas, iu the Indian Territory, she was left alone in enmp while the cattle wore feeding near by. Suddenly, from some cause never to lie explained in a case liko that, the herd lifted its thousands of heads and following a few excitable lenders started on a stampede. Such n rush is death to any one in its path, and Mrs. Kimball anxiously looked over tho prai rie to tlio north, whither the herd was tending. A few Jiundrcd yords ahead of tho bellowing beasts there was a whlto hat showing against the green of tho plain. It was one of tho herders who had dismouuted, and his pony had deserted him. He was dircctiy in the path of tho oncoming nvnlancho of beef, iho animals, blinded witii their panic, would trample him into tlio earth without a pause. Unly n moment remained for uction. Tho woman was the only ono near tho front of the herd. Leaping upon a pony sho lashed it forward, passing one rank after another, until sho was ahead of the herd, when sho dashed directly in their way. Should her horse stumble the, too, would be lost. But tho horse did not stumble nud Mrs. Kimball came nearer and nearer tho man now racing at his boat paco toward her. At last, whon the thundering ho3t was not more than three rods behind, sho leaned far from tho saddlo nnd lifting with her suddenly strengthened nrm the herder by tho waist, she threw him across the neck of her pony nnd went racing on until they wero without tho range of tho cattle. It was a deed which few men could have accomplished, and tho handsome watch presented her by the men nt tho end of tho drive proved that, hardened as they wero, they recognized a bravo act. a piuiniK HKontxe. Among tho heroines of the prairio there must not bo omitted some of the women who havo taken np claims and defended their rights against all comers. Several instances of this kind of bravery havo gained state wido notoriety, and justly so. They endured hardships nnd took chances which entitled them not alono to 100 acres of land, but to tho best wishes of tho wholo state in which their lot wvis cast, A Miss Millard took up n claim near the Kansas and Nebraska line, far out on tho plain. Sho had been a school teacher in Illinois and becamo weary of tho drudgery of her position. Sho select ed a handsomo quarter section and pro ceeded to mako a homestead entry nnd to resido on it the required six months. Sho hod been on tho claim but a few weeks when one day she noticed two rough looking men near tho littlo cabin in which sho lived. She watched them until they had withdrawn to some dis tance, and saw them point to the quarter section eagerly, as if discussing its possi bilities. The noxt day sho was compelled to ride to tbo county joitofllce, five miles away, and sho took care to tako her shotgun with her. On her return she found that her claim had been "jumped" that is, tho men had taken possession of her cabin nnd proposed to treat her as an intruder. As she came near they motioned her to keep away, but sho did not heed them, and sudden ly bringing her gun to her shoulder she discharged a load of Bhot into the side of the cabin. Tho men wero prob.ibly unarmed, for they did not stop to dispute possession at that time, nnd vacating tho house ran out to the prairie. The girl took tho house, pleased with her easy victory, but sho reckoned without her host, for a few moments later she saw smoke curl ins up from tho grass n f ew roils away. They had begun to light tho prairio lire and would bunv her out. Fiaimsa two men. Determined to have a tasto of re venge first, the girl drew from its hiding place a loaded ritle, which she also kept by her, and sent a ball so close to the depredators that one of them had nn arm shattered. Then she took n wet bedqnilt, and running out to meet the fire, pounded it along n strip as wide as tho cabin. Thei was a high wind, and tho flames swept by on cither side, unit ing again nt a little distance, leaving n V shaped piece of sod, at the base of which stood the cabin. Tho men had all they could du to caro of the wound ed arm, ond when tho smoke cleared away the plucky little ex-school toacher saw them still out on the prairie. Now that the danger to herself was over, pity came to tho surface and she went out und helped to bind up tho stranger's anu, sending him off with her own pony to the doctor's. Somewhat to her snrpriw'. iu sho afterward confessed, the pony was returned to her in safety and she was never again troubled with claim jumpers. She owns now her claim and couMderabiu stock. Her deed was not an exceptional one for a settler. Many a man and woman had to tight fur the laud they now pos sess; but it was remarkable in that the girl tempered her revenge with mercy, and showed hcrseif more than the equal of two men.

I am sorry to learn that in some large places a number of poor i sewing girls have to walk np six floors, while passenger and freight elevators are running all day half empty.
