You can have it. Pay me what you think it is worth to you.’ “Ihe frst month he brougiit $2, and the second month a little boy, who said he was this mans son, came with $3. After that I saw the man once in awhile, but in the course of time the boy paid the rent regularly, sometimes £2 and sometimes $3.

The Ruse by Which a Hunter Secured His Game, {William A, Bailllie-Grohman in The Century} The antelope-goat is a singularly fear- less animal, while its innate curiosit will lead it to brave dangers from whic most other wild animals will flee. Let mo relate one incident that will prove this, ing on one of the Irquent amphitheatre- shaped steep slopes, but well down about the middle of the declivity, while | was on the top of the knife-backed ridge. Unfortunately tho goat had seen me, | and had taken to his but in hoofs, flight a course parallel to i. e., approaching neither the ob nor the bottom of the slope.” 1 judged it to be some 550 yards down to him, and my trial shot, hd very steadily while he was making one of his frequent stands, | and which missed him a little to the left, proved my estimation to be fairly correct, I hoped to get nearer, so 1 reserved my fire, and for the next three-quarters of an hour a most exciting steeple-chase took place, I following the ridge, which was of the usual impossible character, while the ram pursued, as I have said, a parallel course, keeping half. way up the slope. The chamois would have put himself beyond distance in a few minutes. True, the path was not a smooth one; indeed, it was as rough as it well could be, huge bowlders, piled over each other or separ | ated by dark yawning chasms, generally too broad even for a goat's muscles, making progress very slow.

Then there are many reporters whose stock in trade is adaptability to circum stances. Each person they are sent to interview needs different treatment on i aecount of disposition or indisposition, or the circumstances surrounding the caso. These adaptative reporters are naturally quiet, suave men, with keen eyes and tenacious memories, They will stand anything or go any place, as long as they get tho interviews they are seeking. They go at candidates frankly, telling just what they want to know, be- cause they are aware that the candidate will be willing to talk; but when inter- ! | viewing the president of a bank or com- a very leisurely manner, keeping in his | mine, | pany, the matter is different, If any- thing crooked has been done at all the oflicials bend every effort to conceal the facts.
