A. TIMELESS LAND.
OK, give me a land In the bye and bye,
. Where no sun-dialed rays are swinging,
Where no whistle cracks the sleeping enr
And no bells from on high are ringing,
I would dwell in 'a spot where the dawn was told
By no nerve-racking, shrill vibration
In a beautiful clime where the march of time
Is determined by inclination,
I would camp on the shore where no hour is known
By a second or minute measure;
Where the night and day come and go away
At our bidding and at our pleasure. .
In this restful place of my heart's desire
Not a care would my spirit borrow,
For the day's delight need not know a night
And there'd be no regretful morrow.
Pray give me a place on that silent strand
A land to my tired heart's liking!
Where each watch, unwound, gives no tickling sound,
And the clock, alongtriking! fa
The Black Jaguar.
By PAUL J FAIR.
In the hall of mammals of the
!MuBeu Goeldl, in Para, there la a
jglass case containing the mounted
form of a great black jaguar onca
ipreta, the Brazilian guard called it.
ICrouching low, it grasps a fawn,
'which. lies, with yet unglazed eyes,
the delicate prey of the monster,
iwhose Jetty black rosettes are only a
ilittle darker than the ground color
icf his coat. v.
The striking appearance of the
?1rute led me to question the guard.
!He told me that it had been a cap
tive of the zoological garden connect
ed with the museum, a sullen cap
tive, that confinement speedily told
upon, and soon left a candidate for
the skill of the museum taxidermist.
Captured when fully grown, upon, the
island of Marajo, that great deli a of
the Amazon, it Beemed never to have
forgotten Its home among the
swamps, whence it had raided the
cattle of the rancheros raided them
once too often.
Up in the blue dome the urlbus
were gathering, black circling dots
that settled down and grew larger,
and materialized into black vultures.
Down they came, alighting, with a
(ponderous whtshlng of wings, in a
nasty, double black row, on each side
of a ravine that gashed the surface
of the prairie not far from .where
the towering wall of swampy forest
formed a creeper-bound barrier, be
yond which the cattle of the great
ranchero, Senhor Joao Lulzda Sa, did
not or could not penetrate. The vul
tures Jostled and hissed pettishly at
one another, and craned their blink
ing heads expectantly over the edge
of the gully.
There, tipon the narrow strip of
tandy shore bordering the water, and
foelow the overhanging bank, with
broken neck, its head twisted back
ward and sldewise and doubled use
lessly under its body, lay a range
. bull, and beside the carcass, feeding
from a great bloody hole in its side,
crouched a Jaguar.
. It was not a common Jaguar, with
tawny, black-rosetted hide, but a
black one, the prized and feared onca
pretft. Not black he was, but dark
brown, so dark, indeed, that his
. black markings Beemed only indis
tinct darker shadows in the satiny
sheen that rippled over his coat as
' the muscles played beneath it. A
' young male, supple and Just arrived
' In his prime, he was a beautiful, pow
erful brute, with thick, heavy fore
, quarters, a great broad head set on
a short neck scarcely less heavy than
. the shoulders from which it arose.
As he tore and crunched his food, the
lighter hind legs and feet gripped at
1 the sand, and the tail Jerked and
i slatted about nervously.
It was easy to mark the story of
the bull'g death in the sand. Some
long, plowed furrows told of the force
of the jaguar's leap from the bank
above, which had knocked the bull
to his knees and into the water, where
lie had been drinking. Truly the
, oncag were becoming very bold. If
. only they could be killed, as the
crocodiles were killed, with axes, the
cattle would not have to suffer from
them. But to compare a Jaguar to
stupid crocodile!
Just yesterday a vaquero had seen
an onca slinging away from a cow's
carcass, one of the many that lay at
all too frequent Intervals about the
ranges. And this In broad daylight!
Tnus Alfredo, the principal va
' quero, was thinking. He was a big
fellow, Alfredo, bigger than the av
erage Brazilian cowboy, and with (
. pleasant, open face, far more intelll
igent than the ordinary. He rode
. easily, the riata of plaited rawhide
wishing against the ' saddle-bow
grotesquely big spurs buckled on his
bare heels, and his great toes thrust
through little brass stirrups so small
that the openings in them were quite
filled.. The little horse loped along,
Impatiently fighting the bit, for Al
freda was going to a distant part of
the range, and held him in that he
might not tire himself. The rider
swayed as if a wave of the motion of
ilia mount Sowed through his frame,
IHis eyes swept about, noting the lit
tie bunches of cattle that grazed, wild'
eyed and with tails half-lifted, ready
to bolt at the slightest hostile sign
One or two vaqueros he passed and
greeted with a little hand wave.
Overhead the urlbus were sailing
and wheeling, and out ahead their
numbers seemed to be concentrating
That meant there was food, and food
would In all probability only be an
other cow fallen prey to the oncaa.
Pressing the rein lightly upon the
horse's neck, Alfredo changed his
course toward the spot. .Nearlng It.
he was surprised to see a black line
of vultures along the rim of a deep
ravine. No carcass in sight, but more
urlbus constantly alighting, always
along the edge. That wag strange.
Suddenly the thought flashed upon
his mind the onca was still feeding
and slipping from his horse, he
hobbled its fore legs, and then ran
toward the ravine at a point a couple
of hundred yards below, the black
line of scavengers. Hardly had he
started when some excitement seized
the birds, and they began to spread '
their wings and drop clumsily Into
the gully.
Alfredo cautiously raised his head
to look down Into the watercourse,
and saw there, already covered with
a black mass of vultures, the carcass,
and beyond It the leisurely retreating
form of a black Jaguar.
He turned and ran swiftly back to
his horse. Jerking off the hobbles,
he rode down Into a side ravine out
of sight. The Jaguar, he reasoned,
would return to the swampy forest
a mile beyond to sleep during the day.
This distance the animal must go in
full view upon the open prairie. If
only the onca had eaten heavily, so
that it would be dull and slow! The
vnquera loosed the coils of his riata,
arranged them carefully and adjusted
the noose.
Then out of a side gully an eighth
of a mile away lumbered the jaguar,
his great bullet-head moving from
ide to side as he walked. Waiting
only to make sure that the cat was
headed for the forest, Alfredo pressed
the spurs In. With a vicious little
queal and head toss, the stallion
bounded out of the gully, and re
sponding to the pressure on his neck,
struck out for the jaguar.
Twenty, fifty, a hundred yards he
went before the cat heard the hoofs,
and seeing the man, broke into a
clumsy gallop straight for the forest.
That it was a labored effort was very
evident, and with a whoop, half-joy,
half-challenge, the vaquero drove his
spurs into the horse's flanks.
Faster and faster flew the whis
tling rope in his right hand. In an
ever-enlarging circle as the Interval
between horse and cat diminished.
It was a hopeless race, the fiery little
horse against a cat, none too swift
at any time for a run of any length,
and slowed down now by a heavy
meal.
As he drew nearer, the horse be
gan to fight for his head, and it was
only by a merciless use of bit and
spurs that the man kept him going
directly toward the Jaguar.
Finally, rising high in the? saddle,
he sent the noose in a Bnaky line
straight at the jaguar's head. With
snarl, the brute bounded sldewise,
and the noose fell harmlessly in the
grass. Hardly checking speed, Al
fredo Jerked it in, and hastily coiling,
sent the circle out again, higher this
time, and farther over. Out, out it
Bailed, over the great black head, and
dropped! v
Chock-k! came the strain upon the
saddle-horn, and the snorting little
horse squatted fairly back upon his
haunches, head down and forefeet far
out and apart. The jerk of the taut
rope just back of the angle of his
Jaws whirled the jaguar in a com
plete somersault.
Up he was in a flash, tearing fran
tically at the slim something that ate
into his neck and choked him, and

modically In one awful, continual
snarl of demoniac rage. But all the
time the horse kept backing, backing,
Its nostrils wide with terror and ex
citement, and keeping taut the slen-
der rope now seemingly turned to
a vibrant steel bar.
Surely and not very slowly,' the
choking torture was subduing the
animal. Its struggles lessened, the
Jaws ceased their spasmodic working
but remained in a fixed snarl, the
tongue protruded, and the deep-set,
pale eyes assumed a glassy, bursting
glare, accentuated by the blackness
of the fur round them. Then it sim
ply fought to hold its ground, clawing
deep into the soil and rank grasses,
but always losing, until at last Its
strength seemed all to give way, and
it dropped limply, with its breathing
reduced to a few raspy little gasps.
Securing the end of the riata to the
saddle-horn and allowing the horse
to keep It taut, Alfredo took a coll
of rawhide thongs from the saddle
bags, and noosing each forefoot sep
arately at the wrist-Joint, he hauled
them up and tied the two cords over
the back. Other nooses fastened the
hind legs and feet together, and a
heavy stick bound with them pre
vented bending the Joints. Then,
seizing a short stick, he thrust it
crosswise Into the creature's mouth,
where the teeth instantly closed on
it. A noose promptly lashed the Jaws
to the stick, and a few turns round
them before and behind it effectually
prevented any danger from that
source.
This done, he slipped the end of
the riata loose from the saddle-horn
and pulled the noose from the Ja
guar's neck. Even the little breath
ing seenjed to have ceased, and the
great sleek monster lay as If dead.
Alfredo gave a little cry of dismay.
Had he not worked fast enough?
Then a long inspiration shook the
form, and the eyelids trembled. An
other and another, and suddenly, as
if aware of his foe, but not realizing
his plight, the jaguar made a con
vulsive effort to get upon his feet.
The cords tightened and creaked, but
did not give. With breathing now
free and his strength returned, he
writhed and twisted like some great
caterpillar. After a while these strug
gles, too, ceased, as if to denote the
breaking of the fierce spirit. The
man watched him for some moments
and then, laughing, patted him on the
head and queried, humorously,
"Pronto?"
Blindfolding the horse with his
handkerchief, he led him over and
dexterously threw him near the Ja
guar. With the aid of his riata,
he dragged the latter Into the saddle,
and after the horse had struggled to
his feet beneath the load, lashed It
firmly in place. Patting the great
head again, he started back toward
the hacienda, leading the horse, and

ORIGIN OF SNOW FAIRIES.
Boys and girls, you have heard of
the Snow Fairies; but perhaps none
of you know of their origin. But why
should I say "perhaps," for I am very
positive the story of the Snow Fairies'
origin has never been told. Ana .tnai
Is why I am going to tell it now, that
you may hear something strictly new.
In the very, very long, long ago
there dwelt In the Alps a family con
sisting cf the parents and .two chil
dren, a little boy and a little girl
They were very happy together till
one day the father, going out on the
icy mountain side, slipped and leu
Into a deep gorge that was filled with
snow. Of course, he was instantly
killed, and the good wife, endeavor
lng to reach him, hoping that she
might find him still alive, lost her
f .oting in the snow and Ice and was
precipitated to the bottom, dying be.
side the already cold body of her hus
band. Now. can anything be sadder than
the fate of those dear little children
Dado, the boy, aged nine, and Pinto,
tho girl, aged seven? There they
were, rway up In the mountains,
walled In by snow and ice, and sur
rounded by as wild a country as ever
mortal man heard of. There they
were, alone, both parents lying dead
In the great canyon down the moun
tain side. And lurking about in the
mountain forests were wild beasts
whose roars, growls and howls made
the night something to be feared by
those little orphans. When father
and mother were with them they
feared nothing. But now that they
were alone, and so helpless, their
hearts were very, very heavy, and
fear stalked about them with every
step.
All day long the little Pinto wept
and called for the mother she knew
could not come to her, and all day
long little Dado sat with downcast
eyes, his heart too sad to allow of
speech. Then as the night came down
the little ones crep closer together
In a corner by the great fireplace,
where .the huge logs, placed there the
day before by their father still burned
brightly, and 'gave' out light and
warmth.
"I am so hungry," whispered Pinto,
thinking of food for the first time
that day. "I am so hungry that my
head spins round and round."
"You must eat something, sister,"
said Dado, rising and going to the
cupboard to find some food for bis sis
ter. But only a bit of dry bread was
fhprA. and Dado remembered that
that day was to have been his moth
er's baking day, and that his "lather
had gone out hunting for meat when
he met with the fatal accident.
He gave i'into the bread, but her
sorrow choked her till she could not
swallow food, and she put the bread
on the table, declaring that her Hun
ger had vanished.
"It's mother and father I want
not food," she whispered heart
brokenly, burying her face in her
apron.
At that moment the door opened
ever so gently, then closed again.
But during the moment's interval
between opening - and Bhuttlng a
white-robed figure , had entered the
room. Dado, who was looking In
tently Into the fire, wondering what
he should do on the morrow for food
and fuel for his sister and himself,
did not hear the slight noise made
by the opening and closing of the
massive door, nor the gentle footfall
of the Intruder. But Pinto, her little
ears eagerly listening for anything
that might happen and hoping
against hope that all this calamity
which had befallen her home might
prove to be a dream caught the
sounds, and she looked up from the
folds of her apron. Then she quickly
touched the hand of her brother and
pointed toward the newcomer, direct
ing Dado s eyes thither, -see,.' sne
whispered, "it must be a fairy."
"Yes, my little ones, I'm a fairy,
and I came to earth to see what I
might do for you. But how cold it
has grown! Ugh. I cannot endure
the snow, and it is falling very rapid
ly outside."
"Snowing?" asked Dado, rising and
going close to the fairy. i
' "Yes, my little one, it Is snowing
heavily, and I, being a cloud fairy,
and always keeping closer to the
warmer zones, cannot breast this
storm. And here I am, aa helpless as
a human being. But while I cannot
change myself or my climatic tem
perament, I have the power to change
others. I can wave my little wand
and make or mar fortunes. And I
came here to help you, my little ones.
Now, while I warm me by your cheer
ful fire, tell me your dearest wish
and I shall grant it."
The fairy sat down beside the fire
and Dado and Pinto drew close beside
her. They told of the sad death of
their parents, the particulars of which
the fairy did not know.
Then they discussed many things,
one of them being the weather, and
the fairy said with feeling: "Do you
know, my little ones, that the fairies
would come to the mountain folk
oftener if we could brave the cold
weather? But we feel the Ice and
snow keenly, and have to remain
where the temperature is more con
genial. But there are so many little
folk in need of the fairy's aid In the
icebound mountains that it seems a
pity that there are no fairies that can
brave the elements and stay near to
those who need them. Ah, if only
we had some hardy fairies among us
fairies who loved the ice and
snow!'! Hereupon the good little
fairy sighed and stretched out her
hands to the fire.
For a few minutes not a word was
said, and Dado, who had been intently
thinking, spoke: "Good fairy, can
not you change my sister and me into
fairies snow fairies? It you can,
we will remain here In the mountains
and be of help to the poor children
who need fairies' help."
"Brave, noble little boy!" ex
claimed the fairy. "I shall try to per
form the miracle you suggest. But'
and she turned to Pinto, who was
listening eagerly to all that was being
said "perhaps the little maid does
not wish to become a fairy."
"Yes, yes, I wish to be a fairy, a
snow fairy, aa brother says. I would
not be anything else If brother is
one," Pinto declared enthusiastically.
The good fairy smiled and raised
her .tiny wand. Passing it slowly over
the heads of the little orphans, she
murmured some strange words; then
with a quick turn of the wand, she
cried: "Change, lad and maid, from
human to superhuman; from boy and
girl to Snow Fairies."
A sudden darkness fell in the room,
and when again the light ot the fire
defined the objects there Dado and
Pinto had disappeared, and in their
nlnce were two beautiful Snow
Fairies, with happiness before them
"And now we shall carry you, dear
Cloud Fairy, to your own warm
clime," said the Snow Fairy (who
had been Dado) speaking to the little
fairy whose charm had worked so
marvelous a miracle. "Yes, we will
protect you from the snow which we
love and see that you reach your
own dominion soon," declared the
Snow Fairy, who had been little Pinto
a few minutes before.
And away flew the three fairies,
happy as could be. Washington Star.
