"Last Thuii'clay week," she writes,
"at 'i o'clock In the morning my tlilr-teen-yenr

'I've seen It In my dream, nnd I know
It's nil true!'

"I said they were.
"And the very (lrst thing sho said to

Lily Sprtilt herself furnished a re

Sho said she woke In terrible fright,
having seen every microscopic detail of
tho shipwreck nnd Its sequel. She saw
her father get Into tho big boat and
keep close to his ship for somo tlmo.
Sho watched his boat cnpslze and the

BARNUM'S OLD LION.
How tha Great Showman Turned His
Death to Account.
Among the features of the parades
of the Unrntim circus there wns for
merly ono thnt never failed to attract
attention. On tho top of one of the
wild beast cages lay an enormous lion.
He was not confined In any way, and
nervous people watching the parado
would shudder at the night and con
template the terrible possibility of the
Hon springing Into the midst of tho
crowd.
But tho venerable old king of beasts
had reached the. leonine dotage, and
stiffened muscles and blunted claws
rendered him harmless. lie was as
mild as a kitten and In the winter
quarters, where he wns allewed to
roam at will, sometimes hnd to be pro
tected from the onslaughts of Irrever
ent and mischievous puppies.
Ono night he wandered from the
quarters. In the course of his travels
he chanced on a barn where a meek
eyed cow was placidly chewing her
cud. A faint flicker of the slumbering
Jungle spirit stirred his pulse, and,
with a crashing blow of the huge fore
paw, the cow was slain; then, lying
down beside bis victim, be went to
sleep and dreamed of the time when he
was a shaggy little whelp playing with
bis brothers under the bright sun of bis
faroff African home.
In the morning the owner of the cow,
a stalwart female with the blood of
Irish kings In her veins, entered the
barn with milk pall In band. She was
filled with wrath at the sight that met
her gaze. With a keen edged ax In her
hand and grim determination In her
eye she fearlessly approached the sleep
ing Hon, and when the men sent ont to
search for him arrived he lay cold In
death. . Barnum promptly paid for the
dead cow and engaged to appear on
exhibition "the woman who in mortal
combat bad slain a Hon."

It Is nil hinged upon tho manner of

In every ono of whom there exists a

success. Tho oflener you cause that

Curious Story of the Haunted
Sentry Box.
LIGHT ON THE OLD LEGEND.
One of tha Many Mysterious Disap
pearances From Fort San Criatobai
Aocounted For by tha Revelation of
tha Lost One Himself.
Writing In the .lonriml of the Mill
Inry Servlro Institution, Captain Ar
thur P. B. Hyde of tho coast nrtlllery
tells this curious story of "Ihe haunt
ed sentry box" of Fort Hun C'rlslobnl.
the nuclcnt Hpnuhdi built fortress
which guirds the entraiico to Snn
Juan, Porto Hlco:
"A number of pli tuivsiiie sentry
boxes built of masonry and iipiienrlir:
llko minarets are placed tit points of
vnul.igu In and around (lie fort. One
of theso on the scetVi-oiit, and rciichci!
only through a Ion; nud dark tunnel
from tho Interior of the fort, Is pop
ularly known ns I.n (hirllii del Diablo,
or tho devil's senlry box, usually, a I
thou::h iiicoiTcclly, t I'ti ii hIii I I (he
I liaunled sentry box. This name was
given to It hy tho Spanish soldiers for
i nit reason unit ii ii u in hit or scumes
stationed thero tllsappimrcd In n most
mysterious manner and wore never
ngaln heard from.
"An American ofllcer was once on
duty thnt took hint Into tho remote In
terior of the Island, nnd while spend
ing one night In a small settlement he
engaged In conversation with n num
ber of tho Inhabitants of tho place.
One old mini, on learning thnt tho of
ficer was stationed nt Fort Kan Cris
tobal, boon mo ospMnlly Inlerested and
In tho course of the conversation told
tho following story:
"'I uset to l'o a soldier In tho Span
ish army and was stationed at Fort
Sun Cristobal. A number of soldiers
whllo on sentry duty had mysteriously
(llHiippenred from tho sentry box down
by tho sea, and wo had all become
convinced that It wan haunted by the
devil, who, we thought, used to come
nnd steal tho soldiers nwny.
" 'Ono stormy night It fell' to my
lot to go on duly In the devil's sentry
box, ns wo en Hod It, at midnight, nnd
It wns wllh hoiiio doubts nnd misgiv
ings that I wont with tho corporal of
the gunrd and relieved tho former sen
try. When they left mo I listened to
tho sound of their footfalls reverberat
ing from fho wnlls nnd celling of tho
dnrk nnd nnrrow pnssage, ever grow
ing fainter nnd fainter as they reced
ed, until finally tho noise of the storm
and tho sen completely drowned It,
and I was left alnno with tho mnd ele
ments. " 'It was n mnd night and ono well
calculated to add to tho feeling of awe
that the devil's sentry box always In
stilled Into the mnn on duty thero at
night
" 'Presently my attention was at
tracted by some lights In a small tav
ern on tho shoro below the fort where
many of us wero wont to go when off
duty for n glass of rum. Then I be
gan to think that I might lie able to
climb down over tho rocks to the
shore, get a glnss of rum at tbo tav
ern and return to my post
" 'Tho more 1 thought of It tho more
determined I wns to go, so finally,
leaving my rlflo and licit In tho sentry
box, I climbed over the wall and down
on to tho rocks nnd so made my way
with great labor and difficulty and no
little danger to the little house, where
tho occupnnts wore making merry
with dancing and drinking. I soon
fell to and enjoyed myself with them.
" 'When one Is dancing with n fair
scnorltn be sometimes forgets the pas
sage of time, as I did on thnt fatal
night, and not until long after 1 o'clock
did I begin to think of returning to
my post Then, realizing that the cor
poral bad made his Inspection and had
found me gone from my post and
with my rlflo and belt left behind, I
saw only n court martial and the gar
roto staring me in the face, for In
those days for a sentinel In the Span
ish army to quit his post meant sure
death, even In peace.
" 'To go back was ont of tho ques
tion. There was only one thing left
for me to do, and that was to desert
My heart sank within me. If I should
be captured, the same fate would be
meted out to me; but I reasoned, If I
wero to go back tbo fate would bo a
certainty, whereas If I deserted at
least I had a chance of keeping out
of sight of the authorities. I deserted
and before morning was out of the
city and on the way to the moun
tains. " T have lived In this little hamlet
for years and have never been back to
the capital since that day, nor have I
ever told my story to a single soul un
til tonight but now that the Spaniards
are gone I no longer fear for my life.'
"Thus we have the story of the dev
il's sentry box from one of the very
men who so mysteriously disappeared
from It, and It would seem to be prob
able that the other disappearances
Tould be accounted for In a similar
manner were the truth known. Qulcn
sabe?"
Captain Hyde mentions an Interest
ing fact that although for centuries
Porto Rico was considered the legiti
mate prey of freebooters and was at
tacked at various times by regularly
organized expeditions of the English
and tho Dutch during times of war,
with more or less success. Fort El
Morro has never been captured by an
enemy, and its only surrender was to
the Americans, together with the sur
render of the whole Island.

AN EASTERN MAGICIAN.'
Tha Feat a Ceylon Fakir la Said to
Have Performed.
This curious pic tu io of an cnslnrn
mnglelun Is from Carolina Corner's
"Ceylon, the Paradise of Adam:" "The
fakir forthwith commenced to unpnek
the burden on his back, the principal
Item being a bamboo framework or
scaffolding. This he held with his right
hand, while he mounted step by step
of bamboos. At the summit, a height
perhaps of eloven feet, he pnused, with
arms extended, to effect a ha In nee.
For soino rens'du or other the frnmo
work remained perfectly steady and
perpendicular, while the fnklr stretch
ed himself out like n spider on Its web.
At Intervals nn the luuiiboos were
heavy nulls, rusty, but slinrp nt the
point These mills distinctly penetrat
ed t tie man's mnhognny colored llesh
when ho stretched himself out on tho
framework.
"Thus he remained, n hideous wound
mndo by each mill, from which the
purple blood flowed, lying there for the
space of ten minute or so. except for
the bliHid n lifeless figure of clay.
Then, muttering some strange gibber
ish, n 1 1 1 in n t ton returned, nnd, making
movements mo Hint tho nails were ex
tricated from tho wounds, tho fakir
wllh his toes kicked nwny tho scnfTold
lug nnd remained himself nlono unsup
ported In midair.
"Yes, there this weird creature re
mained, his lean, chocolate colored
limbs appnrently stiff nnd cataleptic,
his eyes llxed upward nnd glazed. 'It's
a fact,' snld Cynthia In low tones of
wonder. 'At homo they would any we
were hypnotized.' "

very excellent and rather largo cake,
which sho expected to dlstrlbuto in
small slices to her callers. A party" of

When sho returned she snw, to her
horror, thnt her enko had all but dis
appeared. .The native, according to
his Ideas of etiquette, had dono his best
not to Icavo any of the eatables set

Tho lady's vexutlon was banished
by a feeling of pity for tho poor fel

"I know it," replied the editor, "but

Kaffir Greeting.
"Saku bona" are tho first words a
stranger learns of the Kaffir vocabula
ry. The expression Is the common
form of salutation used by the natives,
and its literal translation Is, "I see

spect not to give the greeting Immedi
ately, the delay showing the reverence
In which the native holds his visitor.
