four, but wu brought op by a kind
aunt and uncle. My childhood paw
ed merrily enough, until I wu about
eight, when my uncle, hearing of the
Australian gold Gelds, determined to
seek a fortune abroad, instead of
toiling for a mere pittance at bis
natire home.
So I was transferred to a family by
tbe name cf Graham. They were
middle-class, plain, homely people
working goldsmiths, in fact, and lir-
ed in Northampton Square, Clerken-

They had but one child, a daughter,

occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or tailing ofl, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free

"Ah I but suppose you never do

Why, then I do think I did shed a

on tbe alert, ior we anew, mat
though not much, me had still some
gold that had not been despatched to
Melbourne. e knew tbat some
body, acquainted with its hiding
place, had. escaping oar notice, se
creted himself in oar cabin to gain
possession of it.
When we heard bim more again,
and, as we correctly thought, be bad
gained oar bidden nag gets, we
crawled silently to the bole tbat gave
entry to oar little bed-room, and
looked down.
ATI was dark, jet we could see tbe
dim outline of a man moving hither
and thither, as though he knew every
inch of the ground he trod. Now,
we knew be would be certain to car
ry arma and so we had to be ex
ceedingly cautious.
Tom coolly placed an old for bat
on a stick he had beside bim, and
hang it over the bole, shooting as be
did o r-
-Who's there ?"
We received no answer, bat
thooght we saw the figure move near
er to tbe cabin.
"Answer," continued Tom waring
tbe old fur hat, "answer, or 111
fire!" - - :
Bat Tom bad no time to do any
thing of the kind, for the rascal Ired
directly, and I, looking through a
chink in tbe rongh and divided floor
ing, saw and recognized tne thief as
one to whom Tcm and I bad been tbe
beat of friends. It was Simon Rail,
a man whote reputation bad been of
late far from satisfactory. ';
Tom and I went nnhart, and ere
we could get down, for we noticed
ened and presently broke oat tragic
ally:
"Robert Phillips 1 risen from bis
gravel". . -. ;
"Risen from bis grave?" said I,
growing still more confosed and sur
prised at this unexpected turn of af
fairs. "Yea, air, from his grave," said Mr.
Markham ; "yes, sir, it is co use cf
yonr trying to pass yourself off as
tbat young man. - He bas been dead
these three years ; I was present at
his funeral myself."
"Indeed," aaid I, smiling, but al
most chilling Mr. Markham to death
with tbe acrutinizing glance I gave
him. r. Ah ! 1 recollect seeing yoa in
Australia, I think."
- "Yon are an impostor, and I shall
be forced to turn yoa oat of tbe
bouse if yoa do not instantly de
part." "Very fine words, Mr. Simon Rail,
alias Markhaaa. I shall tarn yoa oat
instead thief, would-be murderer,
and doable-dyed villain."
Amid tbe screams f the servants
and Mrs. Graham, and not heeding
tbe feeble expostulations of tbe old
gentleman, we closed and straggled
to tbe passage. Here, with little
muscular exertion snd ' with a well
directed Mow between the eyes, I
toon threw Mr. Markham (as be
called himself) senseless in the ball,
fast as Lilly, searing my voice she
bad sot forgotten it ; she did not care,
rea if it was my ghest, or if I bad
come for s transitory stay from the

Why the Bay was -EeBBleeJ. .
A big newsboy was yesterday don-
bled over a bench at tbe City Hall
Market, too sick to move and too dis
couraged to care what became of
him. Two or three of tbe motherly
market women fixed bim op doses ot

ter one of tbem said :

"Harvest apples?" he sneered
do yoa think eight or nine harvest

"I saw yoa eating cherries," put in

"I know yoa did ; bat ain't I used

"And he bought two cucumbers off

to other things.
What other things, and how
much ?" I inquired.
Tbis seemed to stump him for a
moment, but, after a pause, he
said :
Well, some lime ago, tbey put a
new fence around the parsonage, and
subscribed Cfty cents to it. and
when tbe fence was finished they
were five cents short, and I gave tbat
too."
After a good hearty laugh at the
man's story, I said :
Bat I have known mean minis
ters, too," and cited the following
case:
A well-known publisher once told
me tbat having issued tbe life or a
celebrated divine, he invited the min
isters of an ecclesiastical body- then
in session to call at his place and re
ceive a complimentary copy of the
book. Nearly the whole number
availed themselves of this kind offer.
One clergyman, after getting bis book,
turned to the gentleman who waited
on him, and said :
"I am greatlv obliged to yoa for
this, bat, to tell the troth, I bought
copy of this memoir the day before
tbis kind offer was made ; now, I
wish yoa woald exchange this copy
for some other book."
The exchange was made.
"One of the closest men T ever
knew," I continued, "was Mr. H.,
who made an arrangement with his
milkman to receive one cent's worth
of milk each morning. When this
arrangement had been in operation
for some time, Mr. M. met - the milk
man one day, and said: : - -
"I sm much obliged to yon for the
arrangement about the milk, bat the
fact is we hardly need a cent's worth
of milk every day. If yoa woald
leave as a half cent's worth every
morning, snd collect one cent on al
ternate days, it would suit as better."
Tbe milkman declined splitting tbe
cent ,
On another occasion Mr. M. wa in
a railway train. By Lis side sat a
stranger and both were reading the
morning paper. After a time the
stranger said : ' -
"As we bsve read oar papers, sop
pose we exchange."
To which Mr. M. replied: "J
woold be glad to exchange with yoa,
bat tbe trade would hardly be a fair
one, yoa baring paid only three cents
for your paper while 1 paid fonr for
mine." ,
The stranger took from his pocket
a nickle, and depositing it on Mr. M.'s
knee, the exchange was satisfactorily
adjusted.
"When a friend of mine, Mr. C
waa at Saratoga, some years ago,"
said Dr. Smith, "a man cams in from
the country to look for a preacher for
the coming Sabbath. Mr. C. had two
sons in the ministry, and so the nan
naturally applied to him ; bat neither

He wss then asked wbst ha charged

On Tuesday last a scoat from Fort
Steele came op with dispatches for a
surveying party away above ns in
the Medicine Bow Mountains. Being
an old friend and chum of Jim Ad
ams, the guide,, the latter saddled a
broncho to accompauy bim a few
miles juat for a cbat
Jim's farorite hor30 was picketed
in the grass near camp, and Miss
Maggie Foreman remarked to her
sister who is tbe wife of Mr. Ad
am's brother that the horse was
such a handsome one she bad a great
desire to take a ride on him. Her
sister replied that sb- bad often ta
ken a ride on the animal, aod that he
was perfectly safe.
The horse was brought in, and tbe
writer saddled bim and assisted Miss
Foreman to mount-
She galloped around the camp for
a whireand was about to dismount,
when a shot watt beard about 500
yardj op tbe river, and a moment la
ter aa enormous biack elk came dash
ing out of a ravine, with Jim a short
distance behind in full chaw. The
elk waa wounded, bat ji-wbW to run
at great speed.
Ice writer, in sport only, never
dreaming she would undertake it,
banded Miss Foreman a large army
Colt's revolver, and told her to ro
and catch the enormous animal. Miss
Foreman took tbe weapon and start
ed toward tbe elk. which was but a
short distance away at that moment.
And now began an exciting chase.
The horse was thoroughly trained
for such work by Mr. Adams, aod as
soon aa started op the trail, dashed
forward with frightful speed. Ad
ams urged the horse forward ia a
vain endeavor to overtake her, but
the little broncho which be bestrode
wss no match for his favorite steed.
The elk started fcr the mouth of
canon, about a mile distant, through
waicn it coald reach the higher
mountains. We felt greatly alarmed
for Miss Foreman's safety, believing'
that in tbe excitement of the chase
her horse had become unmanageable,
until sbe was seen to fire tbe revolv
er at tbe elk, and then we knew ehe
was after meat.
Two, three, four shots were fired,
and yet the speed of tbe elk was not
e3seaed: but at the fifth shot it was
observed to waver, stagger, and in a
moment fall heavily to the ground.
Then Miss Foreman was seen to halt
and fire another &hot into tbe animal
as it lay struggling near the horse's
feet.
We bitched op a wagon and drove
to the scene, where we found Adams
sitting opoD the body of the fallen
monarch of tbe mountains, while
Miss Feremao, flushed and triumph
ant, stood near.
When we praised her daring, Ad
ams said : '
"These Iowa girls are business ev
ery time. I'm from Iowa myself, and
I know a few of 'em; but ehe can't
peck off ail praise, for there ain't
another horse ia the mountains that
could have hugged up to that e'k
like Billy did ; eh, old boy ?"
And be caressed the noble animal
in a very affectionato manner. We
had no facilities for weighing tbe an
imal, but Jim says it will crowd 900
or 1,000 pounds very closely. A
number of Yams Jack's band of Vote

"CoL Barns was sitting on horse
