A BactwosjTMWj."
BY CI.AKKNCE I'ULI.EX.
It was frosty sundewn in the Northern
New England forest, and the snow crust
which the warm March sun had softened
nt midday was freezing. The red squir
rel's t4 chitter" and the rustle of some
falling twig were the only sounds that [
broke the stillness.
But soon there were signs of life astir.
Among the bushes that lined the old
Robinson logging road a large gray wolf
was standing, with ears cocked, listen
ing. A half mile away a black bear, ,
lean from a winter's fasting, whom the j
noonday warmth had tempted into the ;
outer air, was making the best of his way j
back to liis den. At the end of a fallen
tree in a roadside clearing a vicious
looking loupcervier, or Canada lynx, |
with upturned, tufted cars, was dining
off a rabbit.
The wolf lifted his nose and howled; ;
a call presently answered by similar j
Bounds in other parts of the forest. Then I
he stepped into the path and waited, j
Soon there was a glimmer of yellow |
metal among the leafless trees, the j
crunching of frozen snow under a man's !
heel and round a turn in the road came \
walking rapidly a tall, slender youth, I
carrying a large brass horn slung to him
by a strap passing over his shoulder. i
This young fellow, Gideon Philbrick, i
taught the district school in Plantation !
A. He had left the shingle camp of Pete
McDerinott an hour before, and was still I
three miles from home, with not a house ]
to be seen in the whole distance. i
Gideon from his tallness and budding
whiskers seemed a man, but really was
only 1? years of age. His height and
sliumess were a common subject of jest- j
ing in the neighborheod.
"You must have sprouted in a cellar j
'n grown rank," was Deacon Aminidab j
Green's comment; and the young school-,
master had also been disrespectfully'
compared to "a potato bull on a whip
stick."
Gideon, wlio played the bass horn in
the brass band in his native village, had
taken his instrument with him into this
remote backwoods settlement. The peo
ple looked with doubt at the great brass
piece with its liming end "bigger 'n a
punkin leaf," and were not pleased with j
its melody. "Oap'n" Otis Stinchlicld
voiced the general opinion when he said j
"for a hoe-down he'd gin more for !
a hull battery o' such brass pieces as that •
young spraout of a school teacher wuz
so master foiul o' tootiuV
The Pete McDcrmott referred to was a
good-tempered, happy-go-lucky fellow, !
who made shingles in the winter, and |
tiddled for those dancers at every merry- 1
making in the whole country about. lie j
was always ready for anything but work, 1
so when Gideon, taking advantage of aj
"lift'' on a lumber sled, had visited his
camp on this Saturday he had gladly i
taken up his fiddle to join his guest in
duets with the two oddly combined in
struments. They had thus pleasantly
passed the hours together until it was
overtime for Gideon to start; and now
the schoolmaster was making his way i
homeward with every prospect of finish
ing the walk by starlight. I
About midway in his journey the sound
of far-away howling caused him to
quicken his pace, lie had now reached (
the point where we find him walking.
A minute later he stopped suddenly at ,
the sight ahead of what seemed a mon
strous dog facing him from the path, i
For a moment he paused; then walked
resolutely onward, hoping that the animal
would make way for him. But the crea
ture grinned fiercely, showing long white
teeth, and, with hair bristling along its j
back, stood its ground.
The young man felt a creeping sens j
ation at the roots of his hair and down j
his spine as for the first time he realized
that he had a wolf to deal with, lie had 1
gone too far to retreat, an dpi n desperation
put his horn to his lips and blew it loudly,
beginning with a frightful shriek at high |
G and ranging downward through a
jumbled chromatic scale to a dismal
bellow at double B flat.
This hideous and unexpected sound |
completely demoralized the wolf, which !
leaped upward as if something had stung
him. liis tail lowered until it swept
the snow, and he whimpered piteously;
then with a low, long jump he lauded in
the wayside bushes and bolted over the 1
crest of a low ridge lying parallel with
the logging road.
With a sigh of relief the young man
walked on. But presently he saw that
the wolf had not gone far away, but Was
running along the ridge as it he meant
to keep him in sight. The suu had gone
down, the woods already were gloomy,
and the howling had come nearer, lie
foresaw that in a few minutes more, the '
wolves would attack him. As he entered
a dealing lie looked wildly about for
some way of escape. Near the middle
of the opening stood a dead birch tree of j
unusual size. Its top and small branches
hud fallen, and the white bark was peel- I
ing away in great patches from its'
trunk.
Gideon started at full speed across the
suow -crust for this tree. Half way tc its
foot he looked around and saw that sev- I
eral wolves had already entered the'
clearing and were coming toward him
at a gallop.
So intent was he on the wolves that
he did not notice at the end of a large
log, directly in his path, a mass of gray
fur which suddenly revealed a savage
array of teeth and claws as a loup-ccr
vier, with a great snarling and spitting,
leaped up almost into his very face.
I hen turning, the ill-tempered creature
darted to the tree which Gideon was
trying to reach, ran up its trunk and
took a position in the fork of a largo
branch.
It was not an inviting prospect to try
to "shin up" the tree in the face of the
angry animal glaring down with round,
yellow eyes, but there was worse behind
him, so clasping the tree with arms and
legs Gideon mounted aloft at a speed
that surprised himself. ITo moved none
too quickly, for us he made his last shuffle
upward and secured a hold on the lower
limbs, the foremost wolf arrived, and a
pair of jaws snapped together just be
low the schoolmaster's coat tail with a
click like the shutting of a steel trap.
By the time Gideon had settled himself
securely among the branches four or five
wolves were lumping at him.
He would iiave fit safer a notch high
er among the branches had it not been
for the unpleasant creature above him,
which his-cd and spit whenever he
shifted his position. At the foot of the
tree the wohc- howled and gnashed
their teeth. They hud been joined by
others, increasing tin lr number to seven
h'i impatient for supper.
A newcomer now appeared upon the
scene a large, black animal, which
crushed through the snow crust heading
straight for the tree. Gideon saw that
it was a beur, and gave himself up for
lost.
4 'He'll climb the tree sure," he thought,
4 'and then where'll I be'"
The wolves did not at. tirst appear in
clined to meddle with the great creature,
which lumbered along as if he did not
care for anything that might be in his
path. As he came near them, growling,
they for a moment gave way before him,
leaping to the loft and right. Then one
snapped at him from the rear, which
seemed to give the others courage, and
all together they sprang upon him.
Gideon blew his born loudly in the hope
to frighten the big animal lrom taking
refuge in the tree. There ensued a free
for-all fight, a tumbling mass of gray
I andblack fur, but the bear broke away
from his foes and reached the foot of the
tree.
! "Now. he's coming up," said the un
fortunate musician to himself, without
( easing to toot his horn. "It's good-by
me."
But the bear bad other plans. In the I
| rocky ground, the main roots of the tree j
j growing over two or three nearly buried |
j granite boulders had left a hole which
the decay of the truuk had further en
larged. In this cavity the bear had taken ,
up winter quarters and lie was now at
his own threshold. Rearing with his
j hack against the tree he sparred like a 1
i boxer, knocking the two foremost wolves I
i sprawling; then dropping on all fours he ;
' defended himself with his forcpaws as
he was backed into his dcu.
44 1 wonder what critter'U head for this
tree next," he groaned. 4 'They don't
seem to know of any other place to
go to. There! One's a-comiug now!
It's from the sky this time."
A huge form came booming through
the air toward him, with flapping wings j
and four kicking legs. Gideon twisted 1
his legs around the branch, braced him-!
self hard and blew his loudest note. At J
the sound the great horned owl winging |
his way homeward with a rabbit in his
claws changed his course so as to avoid ;
the tree and went his way into tho
darkness.
The schoolmaster noticed another good
effect of his horn-blowing. At the tirst \
notes the loupcervier had run up the tree
as far as he could go, and from the top
most fork, with only his head showing,
looked as disgusted aud frightened as j
the forlorn human being did a dozen
feet below him. Gideon found his perch
I a hard and chilly one. llis legs
were cramped and he was generally un
comfortable. But he could sec no pros
pect of quitting it until daylight might
bring relief, unless indeed, before that
time arrived, he should become be- j
numbed and fall among the wolves.
There was little likelihood that peo- '
pie would be moving on the road at that
hour, but on the hare chance that a
lumber team might pass Gideon kept on
blowing his horn. From time to time
he varied his calls of distress by falling •
into the strains of practice-tunes. Then
to keep from getting benumbed he would
slap his sides with his hands and kick
vigorously. The wolves, now nine in i
number, were all the time moving about l
beneath him, with their eyes on the un
happy musician ,4 up a tree."
A bright idea for warming himself and j
keeping his heart up struck the shiver- j
ing schoolmaster, who had some matches ■
in his pocket. Tearing from the tree- '
trunk a sheet of dry birch bark, he
rolled it into a funnel-shaped torch and
lighted it, making a cheerful illumina
tion. When it burned down near his j
fingers it served to kindle a fresh roll,
which he made ready. This went on
until liis fifth torch was burning low, ;
when, as he reached forward to tear!
away another strip of bark, lie saw a lit
tle blaze springing up on the snow be- i
ncath him. The bear in squeezing out !
from his den had scattered on the crust
a quantity of dry leaves and rotten !
wood, and the stump of a torch had set |
them on lire. The blaze crept to the
foot of the tree, the dry birch bark ,
caught fire like tiudor, and the wolves |
drew back iu terror as a torrent of flame j
rushed up the tree.
Gideou backed out toward tho end of
the limb just in time to escape a scorch j
ing. Twelve or fifteen feet overhead ,
the loup cervier followed his example, j
and now stood craning its neck iu every j
direction on the lookout for a chance to ;
jump and run.
The bear beneath them was not happy, j
for the flames worked their way into his I
den until the smoke and heat were more !
than he could stand, and out he bolted i
for the woods. A few feet away from the !
tree the wolves fell upon him and their j
battle was renewed. The loup-ccrvier
thought it a good time to escape, and
dropping on Gideon's shoulder to break
its tall—to the no small damage of the
1 young man*B clothes and nearly knocking
him from the limb -it rebounded to the
snow crust beneath and was at once
pounced upon by two wolves, whom it
. kept busy in a smart running fight.
But things that he knew not of were
i working in Gideon's favor. Coming
along the wood road that night were two
noted hunters of the region, "Uncle"
Kzekicl Chase and Nimrod Haynes, on j
their return from a hunting trip. On a j
long "moose" sled they were hauling j
the meat and skins that they had se- |
j cured. As they came near the clearing ,
they heard, a long way off, a booming j
• noise that caused Uncle Zekc to remark : !
| "If 'twas October 'nstead o' March 1 j
should think some greenhorn was try in' |
! to call a bull moose."
"D'ye mind another noise, Uncle
Zeke," said his companion, "like!
houn's a baying? It s wolves, sartin. '
See that the magazine of ver sixteen- !
shooter's charged 'n w'll find out what!
all that racket means."
Ihe two hunters stole toward the
noises and their wonder grew as the
sounds that they had taken for a
moose-call shaped themselves into the!
notes of a familiar old time. At the 1
edge of the clearing they paused in!
amazement at the scene before them. j
In the top of a tree in the opening!
was an indistinct dark object, and on a I
limb below it, revealed by a lighted
torch, a man was blowing a frosty horn.
Nine large wolves sat on their haunches
in a semi circle about 20 feet from the
foot of the tree, each nose pointing up
ward, and every ear erect us they listened
with answering howls to the hearty old
tunc of "We Won't Go Home 'Till
Morning," which Gideon, shivering and
disconsolate, was rendering in the meas- j
urc of a dirge.
The two hunters looked at each other'
in blank surprise. Never before had
such a sight appeared to them in all
their lifetime amid the woods.
"Pinch me, Nimrod, and tell me I'm
not dream in'." said Uncle Zcke. "This
thing don't seem nut'ral. Well, I de
| chr.c*. If the. hull affair ain't goin' up in
j smoke."
Starting from the foot of the tree, a '
shaft of -flame was shooting lip its trunk ,
with a blaze like a chimney afire.
"By gum! Them wolves ain't no
dream! We must hurry up to save a
human bein' from being burned alive or j
eaten by varmint?!" cried Nimrod i
llayncs. "What's tenrin' loose now?"
| he continued, as bear and wolves rolled
I and tumbled in the snow. 4 'The crit
ters seem to be bavin' a tussle uraong
themselves."
Neither Gideon nor the enraged beasts
below him heeded the approaching
hunters, who, 50 yards away, opened
lire with their 4 'Winchesters" into the
mass of contending animals. At tho
crack, crack, crack of tho two repeating
rifles the yelps of pain grew louder, and
j more than one wolf leaped into the air,
and fell back in his death struggle,
I while the loup ccrvier took refuge in a
I tree.
i The fire crept out on the limbs, com
| polling Gideon to creep further toward
the end of the branch, which he expected
! every instant to break under his weight,
i As he watched the fight with helpless
j fascination the rapid discharge of rifles
brought to his notice the deadly volleys
among his enemies. The next moment
| the limb broke short olf near the trunk
j and with a crash he dropped into the
deep snow, which nearly buried him
! from sight.
' Fifty yards away the bear lay dying,
I shot through the body; two or three
I wolves lay dead about him and as many
! disabled ones were trying to crawl away.
. The loup-cervier tumbled from a tree
( with a ball through his head. The
wounded animals were quickly dis
patched and the hunters then pulled tho
' schoolmaster out of the snow.
; Gideon helped his rescuers skin tho
j dead animals and pack the fur on their*
I sled. This exercise and the walk homo
in their company warmed and limbered
him, and a cup of hot pepper tea by a
blazing tire completed his recovery from
the ill effects of his night's adventure, j

A KING S LOVE OF SPORT.
How Kalakaua Undertook to Train
Some Native Oarsmen.
There are dozens of reminiscences of
the late King Kalakaua now floating
down the news current, and the San
Francirco Post adds a couple relating to
tho late monarch's love of sport: The
King was very fond of sport and was
never happier than when consorting with
the athletes who wandered to his island
while returning from the Orient byway
of San Francisco. The fever for boat
racing in Australia caught his attention,
and he conceived the idea of introducing
that fascinating sport at the islands.
He had only to express a wish for it
and the oarsmen among the white popu
lation challenged a crew of the natives
to a four-oared boat race. The articles
of agreement were at once drawn up, the
stakes deposited and date set.
The King made up his mind that the
! natives would be beaten if he did not
! become their trainer. He was so enthu
siastic in the matter that lie would allow
no one hut himself to carry out all the
preparations for the contest.
He selected seven of the most skilful
scullers among his subjects and placed
them in training according to his idea of
the most approved manner. lie told
them they might be as strong as mules,
, but if they did not train their wind they
would never win the race, lie then
ordered them to he up every morning
at sunrise and await him at the gate of
i tlic palace.
j The next morning he was in the saddlo
jin time to meet his crew. He carried
| a long blacksnakc whip. His orders to
the scullers were: 44 You must run as
hard as you can until I tell you to stop
and if you don't—He cracked his
whip as a forcible finish to his threat.
I He ran them for three miles the fiist
1 morning and increased the distance every
succeeding day. In the afternoons he
administered to each of them a liberal
doso of physic. In the evenings he
trained them iu the boat. He overtrained
theui, and they lost the race before
half tho course was covered.
Kalukaua was passionately fond of
sailing a yacht. lie owned one which
carried too much sail for any wind
greater than a strong breeze.
One day he sailed much further out to
sea than he usually did. He was lazily
watching the multitude of hungry sharks
which swarmed around his boat, when a
storm blew up. lie shortened sail as
quickly as possible, and every time he
looked at the water lie saw the sharks
watching him. When he was carefully
working his way back to the island the
sharks continued to watch every move
ment cf his arm at the helm, as those
debating the chances of his escape from
their jaws. He fooled them, though;
but he afterward lost all desire for yacht
ing-
Tribal Signs of the Indians.
Trailing is not all the scout's knowl
| edge. Ik-sides having au intimate ac
quaintance with the country he also
knows how to hail any passing bands ot
Indians or other tribes of the plains.
The tribe signs are as numerous as the
tribal divisions themselves. The ap
proach of an Indian party is stopped by
holding uj) the right hand. Passing it
back and forward before the face
j means, 4 'Who are you?" as plain as
| words can say it. Then comes the an
swer. The Comanche makes a motion
| like the course of a [snake, Comanche
j meaning snake. The Arapaliocs (smell
ers) take the nose between the thumb
and forefinger. 'J he Cheyennes (mean
ing cut arm) draw the hand across the
arm as if to saw it off. The Pawnees
I (wolves) put their hands to their fore
heads, with the lingers pointing ahead
j like a wolf's ears pricked up at an unex
pected sound, while the Sioux (or cut
throats) draw their hands across their
I throats.
i All these things nre in the mind of the
j scout and arc as familiar to him as the
rising of the sun. In addition, he
knows something of astronomical lore so
j far as it tells of the directions indicated
by the stars. He is as infallible as a
j barometer in predicting weather changes,
! and his acquaintance with wild beasts'
| ways would be a bonanza to a naturalist.

A Curo for Hangnail.
A small and almost imperceptible hang
nail often causes the owner of the hand
which bears it an endless amount of an
noyance and vexation. It is the general
rule—manicures to the contrary, not
withstanding—that the nails that arc the
least attended are better then those that
! are continually doctored. The man who
cuts a lmngnail in nine cases out of ton
lays the way for a much more vigorous
successor. Satisfactory results are al
wuj-s obtained by adopting the habit of
pushing the skin Imek from the nail after
washing the hands. The dry end of tho
towel should be taken and the skin
pressed back wherever it overruns the
nail. This breaks its adhesiveness to tho
nail and makes hangnails impossible.
Where the skin is allowed to grow fast
i to the nail trouble invariably results, be
I cause the nail in growing out pulls tho
skin with it, and when it breaks from the
1 tension the hangnail is formed.—[Phila

WILY CHINAMEN.
HOW THEY EVADE CANADIAN
CUSTOMS OFFICIALS.
Taking Out Certificates When They
Return to China and Selling the
Documents to Other Chinamen
Who Want to Come Over.
Every Chinaman who leaves Canada
takes a certificate which shall serve as
hi-* passport when he returns, lie may
take out a certificate when he does not
mean to leave the country. lie may take
one when he is merely going to smuggle
himself over our border, and never
means to go back to the Dominion. Or
he may take a certificate when he has
made all the money he needs, and is on
his way to China to end his days ther%
after years of that luxurious idleness
which the average laborer counts upon
obtaining in China from the judicious
investment of $2,000- -the coolie's plum.
Of course it is fair to pre
sume that in many cases the
certificates arc demanded by men
who mean to return. At all events, these
certificates, which are passports to Cana
da, and indirectly to the I nited States,
have a money value. They are sold in
China. They can be purchased openly
to-day in the streets of Hong-Kong like
ducks or chopsticks. There they pos
sess a fluctuating value, and have been
known to fetch as high as SOS. Some
times they are let go at a less price than
the SSO they arc expected to save in the
avoidance of the poll-tax, the fluctua
tions being governed by the demand at
the time of the departure of a vessel, be
cause only so many uncertified Chinese
laborers may take passage on the
steamers under the Canadian law—one
to every fifty tons of the ship's burthen.
Of those who carry certificates and of
those not of the laboring class as many
as choose may come.
It is to guard against trickery with
the certificates that the customs officials
at Victoria and Voncouver have all they
can manage. When a Chinaman enters
the ollice of the collector to apply for a
certificate, several men are called in
the interpreter and a clerk or two. The
Chinaman gives his name, age, place of
birth and other particulars of value in
identifying him He is asked to step
upon the platform of a measuring ma
chine, such as is in use in our army and
elsewhere—an upright pole marked oil
into feet and inches, and fitted with a
sliding rod that gives the man's height
when it rests upon his head. All this
the Chinaman perfectly comprehends;
but what he does not know is the de
scription of himself that the men around
him are going to write down in the big
book after lie has gone, a description
which takes in his general appearance,
the peculiaries of his features and limbs
and shape, with notes of every scar or
pit or n ark upon his hands, neck, face
uud head.
And yet, inspite of these precautions,
Chinamen who go away from Canada
looking at least forty years of age, return
appearing to be only twenty-four; and
others who measure live feet and nine
inches when they depart, come back in a
few months several inches shorter or taller
than when they sailed for China. They
are new-comers, with the certificates of
other men, of course. The silent scan
ning of the features of applicants for
certificates does not pass unnoticed by
these shrewd and intelligent people.
The manner in which they"endeavor to
make themselves appear like the persons
whose certificates they carry shows this.
They frequently go as far as to disfigure
themselves for life in order to save the
SSO, and to bear out what they judge
must be written in the customs book
against the numerals that mark each of
the certificates—which, by-the-way, con
tain no word of the descriptions of the
men who take them out. While I was in
Victoria one of these tricksters arrived
with a great scar burned in his forehead,
a cut disfiguring one cheek, and a deep
pit burned in his neck. When questioned,
and proven to be a fraudulent fellow,
he confessed that he had never been to
Canada before.
The cross-examination each certificated
Chinaman must undergo in the British
Columbian custom houses before he is
allowed to pass iuto the country without
paying the tax is very searching. He is
what city he worked in while in
Canada, and then he must name the prin
cipal streets in that city, some of the
names of the merchants there, and also
the notable peculiarities of the town; j
what sort of looking things drag the j
railroad cars; what kind of machines are !
used to put out fires—a hundred questions
cleverly devised. In spite of all this,the
customs officials frequently have to admit
that they cannot tell whether they are
being imposed upon or not in special
cases. Doubtless many Chinamen slip
through without attracting suspicion.
The men who sell the certificates accom
pany the sales with descriptions of them
selves, and with a great amount of the
information they acquired of the locali
ties they were familiar with. As to the
general facts about Caucasian life, there
are plenty of men in China und on the
ships to post the immigrants fully.
Every three weeks, when a ship ar
rives, the Chinamen with certificates are
(piestioucd, and several are found to be
the purchasers of the tickets of others,
but not one Chinaman has yet been sent
back on this account. All that Canada
wants is her tax, and if auy Chinaman
caught at this trickery lacks the SSO, he
finds his countrymen iu Victoria or Van
couver willing to advance the money to
him.—[Harper's Magazine.
j Oared Himself of Consumption.
Dr. Wilson, a former otiicer in the
navy, who served with Admiral Farrngut,
found soon after the war tlint he was
troubled with consumption, lie sought
medical advice, and he was told that he
could not at best live more than six
months if he should remain in this coun
try. Dr. Wilson, who is to-day tall,
broad shouldered, with the ruddy ap
pearance of a man who has never known
a day of sickness, says that he cured
himself absolutely by what is known as
out-of-doors treatment. He went first
to the Cape of Good Hope and wandered
about through the South of Africa. He
engaged in agriculture and hunting.
He spent a good many years in tlio
Transvaal. He would not live in a house
until his lungs became thoroughly healed,
lie now owns the half of the Island of
Johanna, one of the Camorc group. It
is an island perhaps twenty-five miles in
circumference. He has a large sugar
plantation on this island which is 1)00
feet above the sea level. The only ether
white man on the island is an English
man, also a sugar planter. l)r. Wilson
is a bachelor. He has built up a com
fortable place for himself on this island.
The climate is perfect and his business
good. There is no place in the world so
enchanting to him as this island in the
South Atlantic. The climate is equable
and not subject to sudden changes. His
pleasure and recreation are found in
hunting in the Transvaal. —[Chicago
