The waiter put the coin Into his mouth and made change for $5 only. The Yankee kicked and snore there was a swindle, but the waiter took tbe $3 from his mouth and hHA It up and said : " 'See!

He grabbed tbe rascal by the throat aud choked his mouth open, and, lo, a ten dollar gold piece dropped to the floor.

Hohlnd him rose a bristling ridge of Ice pinnacles, which effectually Mucked his view to ward the sea. From my greater elevation I made out the form of a great polar bear crossing the rough ioe toward the laud. As I watched he reached a high cake of Ice and, climbing upon It. raised himself up on bis hind quarters and looked over toward the spot where Mr. Long, the observer, wns at work. Then I realized his "object. There was no one else In sight, and Long was un armed. Could I reach camp, seize a rifle and ninke my way out on the hay before the bear began his attack? In the cold, crisp air I ran the mile or so toward the hut, a race that ifur tunntely was down grade. I rushed Into the bouse, secured my rifle and set off as fast us my legs would carry roe toward where I had last seen the bear. Usually the dogs at camp thought it great sport to Join In such a chase, but this time they crouched around the hut, whining and whimpering and re fusing to follow as I ran pn-t them with my rifle. I soon came l.nng and, warning him to look r the approaching bear, of which lie was still all unconscious, proceeded at re duced jeed, as the Ice wns now very rough, la the direction of the advanc ing beast. As I was crossing the top of the first pressure ridge I saw the bear coming my way. He caught sight of me at the same moment, raised him self on his haunches to get a better view, and tben started In a lope over the Ice cakes In tor direction. ! I raised my carbine, took a quick I sight and pulled the trigger. Instead of the usual quick snap and explosion I I felt the slow, gummy motion of the bolt that told me that the lock was ' frozen. In cleaning the gun a few days before I must have left some oil In the lock. I worked the bolt back and forth, trying to warm np the mechanism by friction, the great bear climbing rapid ly and surely over the broken Ice cakes toward me all the while. Once more I pulled the trigger. The unexpected happened, nnd the cartridge exploded, but in my baste, although so close, I made a clear miss. KI?T HER PROMISE.

Country Life.' MACBETH. A Famous Actor's Views on the Sleep walking Scene. The Hrst time 1 read this tragedy I 'expc1 1 to see tile sleepwalking scene played by Macbeth Instead of his wife. Tills scene occurs at the beginning of the firth act and not until the geiillo woman and the doctor converse togeth er are we aware of the change In I.ady Miielielh's character and of the illness that has made her weak. A woman bo brufnl In her conception nnd so res olute In her projects how could she at once lose steadfastness, she who wns capable of saying: I would, while It was smiling In my face, Have plucked my nlpp'e from his bono- U-ss sums And dnshi-d the brains out. Such a woman-Is capable of commit ting any crime without losing her Im pulsiveness. I should have preferred not to see her, even In Bleep, wash her hands of the murder of Duucau. Her wicked personality would have appear ed still greater. I do not believe that Shakespeare meant the sleepwalking scene for Lady Macbeth. Have you not noticed how precise tho famous writer was In d raw ing ills characters? lie always tried to keep them in tho same light from beginning to end. To my mind It seems impossible that l.ady Macbeth should collapse like that Instead .It would be more untural In Macbeth. 1 found Jills scene so unnatural that I cut It out In my version. ' The explanation may be something like this: In Shakespeare's day there were no women players. Perhaps some of the actors were not satisfied with the length of their respective parts. Shakespeare, to keep the peace, may have shortened Macbeth's speeches and given them to somebody else. The tragedy of Macbeth Is a sublime display of tragic passion, a pnthetlc picture of fate and evil conquering good. There Is no moral, but without doubt this play may be regarded as the greatest work of dramatic litera ture. Tominnso Snl vini In Putnam's Monthly. ENGLISH GHOST STORY.

Let us show it A Vision That Saved a Life oi Yorkshire Dales. It Is not often that we hear of a ghost saving a man's life. There is, however, an Instance, nnd it seems to be tolerably well authenticated, nnd materialists will hardly know how to account for It Here Is the story. It Is of the Yorkshire dales nnd of a good ninny years ngo. A clergyman whose duty lay Jn that wild country, where a strong race of men nnd women lived principally on bacon' nnd nut -tike and knew not save rarely bu'cliei's meat, used to ride or walk to visit the people. He bad been raising a subscription in n time of scarcity and hud to be out lute at night. One evening ou his out ward Journey he suddenly became aware of a figure moving beside him, nmf In the glonuiing he recognized bis brother, who had tiled tvune time be fore. He wns too awestruck for words, and after keeping by his side for sonio dlstnnce over the lonely moor the figure disappeared. He noted the time nnd the vision, but nothing oc- ' curred to throw uv.y light np-.n It i However, some years after he had . taken tho duly at n Jail In another pnrt ' of the country one of the prisoners ly- 1 lug under sentence desired to mnke a confession. After tilling him of a lot of crimes be said: "I wor very near J once taking your life, sir.

I saw yon coming up nnd waited fill you should be near enough, bet 'hat night you were not alone."
