Tina, Olila., the late householders,
viewiug the remains, were greatly sur
prised at finding upon tho supposed
site of the grocery a large and solid
mass of excellent Ice cream In bulk,
melting rapidly away under tho sun,
but still good at heart. Tho explana
tion, after all, was simple. The light
ning stroke which destroyed the roof of
the building, and shattered every barrel
and bottle in the piace, fused and melt
ed a dozen milk cans, releasing tbolt
precious contents. Directly over the
cans, on the shelves, were a uumbcr of
paper bags of sugar, a sack of flour aud
seven bottles of vanilla extract, whose
released contents fell Into the mass.
Before tho milk had time lo flow awaj
It was burled up In such hailstones as
even Oklahoma never saw before, a
fall of two feet occurring in almost an
instant. The ice balls mingled with the
contents of a dozen barrels of salt,
which liac! been standing about the
milk cans, produced such an Intense
cold that the mingled milk, vanilla, su
gar and flour were Instantly solidified
on tho surface, and In half an hour be
came a solid mass to the core of excel

Fathers Must Bo Careful There.
j Among the Indians of Britir'i Guiana
usage bids the father go to bed when a
child Is boru and allows the mother to
return at once to her household duties.
James Ilodway's recently published
Ibook on that country explains the cus
tom by a supersltiou which attaches
tho spirit of the child to the body of the
father. The author says:
"Tho father must not hunt, shoot or
jfell trees for some time, because there
is an Invisible connection between him
self aud the babe, whose spirit accom
panies him in all his wanderings, and
might be shot, chopped or otherwise
Injured unwittingly. lie therefore re
tires to his hammock, sometimes hold
ing the little one, and receives the con
gratulations of his friends, as well as
[the advice of tho elder members of the
.community. If he has occasion to
'travel, he must not go very far, as tho
child and spirit might get tired, and, in
'passing a creek, must first lay across
,'lt a little bridge or bend a leaf iuto tlis
Iskape of a cauoe for bis companion."

Tho Most Remarkable Exploit of
44 W11<1 Bill" Illekox—An Kxclt
iiig Story of Abduction.
~Y~ 6T~ILD BILL HICKOX
\/\/ was for a long time
\ \ chief of scoutH m
coraraaud." It was a
retired army officer who was talking,
says tho Washington Star. He leaned
back in an arm chair at tho Army and
Navy Club ami became rominiscent.
"llickox got his nora do guerre of
Wild Bill at Independence, Mo., when
ho was about nineteen years old. This
was tome time late in the fifties, when
Independence was the busy end of tho
San I a Fo frail.
"Hickox wns'a muleskinuer,freight
ing to Santa Fo aud back, and iu some
street fight which occurred in Inde
pendence, in which Hickox had no or
iginal interest, ho conducted himself
with such limitless valor and appeared
so utterly reckless of results that ho
was ever afterward called * Wild
Bill.'
"He was a natural boru pistol shot
and could shoot in the dark by ear.
In fact, ho could hit any object once
ho had located it, and he aimed a pis
tol by fashion of nervous iustiucb
rather than by sight. Ho could hit a
dimo tossed iu the air aud shot with
his loft baud as well as ho did with
his right. Ho stood ou Market Square
on ono occasion iu Kansas City, just
after the war, and with a pistol in
each hand put twelvo bullets in ono of
tho O's in an 'J. O. O. F.' sigu which
was tacked to tho third story of tho
building in tho centro of' what was
called Battlo Row. 11c fired both pis
tols together and the twelvo shots
sounded like six.
"The most remarkable exploit ac
credited to Hickox was after ho lmd
become Wild Bill and was keeper of a
stago station somowhere out in Kan
sas on the Santa Fe trail. He had had
troublo with a semi-outlaw by tho
namo of Jake McC'andlas. McCaodlas
was one of tho border fighters from
Missouri and occasionally raided
through Kausas, while the border war
was in progress, just before the six
tics. Ho had it in for Wild Bill,
"One day Wild Bill had gone over
to visit tho wife of a friend who had
died. On his way ho shot a wild tur
key with his pistol aud carried it
along. While sitting talking with the
lady, out across the prairies ho saw a
baud of men coming and knew them
for tho McOaudlas gang by some of
tho horses. His own horse, Black
Nell, was standing out in front of the
house. Wild Bill realized that trouble
was at baud. Ho directed tho lady to
go iuto a storm cellar, where sho
would be safo from stray bullets. A
Hawkins rifle was hanging ou the
wall.
" 'ls it loaded ?' asked Wild Bill of
the widow.
"She said it was. Ho took it down
and then proceeded to load tho empty
chamber of his six-shooter, using a
rough piece of lead in lieu of a bullet.
Then ho barricaded the doors aud win
dows.
" 'Wild Bill Hickox is inside,' said
McCaudlas, as ho rode up. 'I know it
by the cuss' horse, Black Nell.'
"There were eleven men iu the Mc-
Catnllas party. Their leader deuiaud
cd that Wild Bill surrender. Tho lat
ter jauntily applied somo opprobrious
epithets to McCaudlas, who was dead
game, ran at tho window and came
crashing iu—glass, sash and all. He
fired a shot just as he broke in tho
window, but missed Wild Bill. Mc-
Caudlas fell on tho floor and never got
up, for Wild Bill shot him through tho
head with a rifle. The other ten all
assailed tho liouso at the same timo
with McCaudlas. They wero breaking
in windows on all sides aud shouting
as they came.
"Wild Bill could never tell tho de
tails of tho fight. He says lie recol
lects killing six men with Ins six
shooter, with a rapidity like tho tick
ing of a clock. Ho then drew a nine
inch bowio knife aud succeeded in
slaughtering the last one of the eleven.
When the corpses wero collected ono
man's arm had been broken iu some
fashion, either by a wrench which
Wild Bill gave him—for he was a very
powerful man—or from some acci
dental blow received from his own
party. Wild Bill was covered with
wounds, both from knifo thrusts and
load. Ho was all but fainting at tho
wiud-up, but munagod to get tho door
open aud staggered to a tub of raiu
water at tho corner of tho house
to got a drink.
"He faintod away and fell with his
head in tho tub, and would have un
doubtedly drowned had it not been
for the widow, who came out of the
storm-cellar aud rescued him. They
got Wild Bill over the several prairie
miles to the stago station, and that
afternoon ho was started for Kmsas
City on the stage. Ho was several
mouths recovering, and was attended
by a woman who still lives in Kansas
City."
Thrilling Story of Abduction.
A well-known ex-dotectivo told mo
a thrilling story of abductiou. For
years this man was one of tho leading
Pinkertou detectives, but a year ago
ho retired to privato life. "It was
just four years ago," ho said, "when
the Pinkertou office was given a caso
that was so much like that of Miss
Moore as to be startling. I said at the
timo that, iu my opinion, tho young
woman —for it was a young woman
who was missing—was held for ran
som, aud so it proved. Who lived in a
handsome brownstoue house at No.
107 East Ninety-second street, and
was the daughter of Andrew W. Man
chester. He used to be iu the lace im
porting business in Leonard street,
but has since died. The young woman
is now the wife of John E. Borden, a
wealthy Boston business inau."
The detective went on to say that
Miss Lulu Manchester, then sixteen
years of age, had started from home
at 4 o'clock in the afternooD, to pay a
call around the corner. Continuing,
ho said: "Of course, I had an idea
that tho had a lover and had eloped
with him. But not a trace of a lover
could I find. Then I thought there
was some family trouble behind it all,
but again I was mistaken. Next I did
the usual danco from morgue to hos
pital, to tho insane asylums, mean
while) covering any clew that somo
idiot might bring us, but it didn't go.
Twenty-two days passed with no trace
of Miss Manchester. One day a suave
young Italian called upon Mr. Man
chester, and in quite good English ex
plained that ho represented a syndi
cate formed for tho purpose of ab
ducting the daughters ot wealthy men.
'ln tho caso of your daughter,' ex
plained tho Italian, 'sho is in good
hands. She has not been harmed and
will not bo harmed for one week more.
But in that time you must pay a ran
som of S3OOO for her return. If you
do not we shall kill her."
Tho outcome of this strango caso
was related by the detectivo as fol
lows: "My first idea was to arrest
the agent of the bandits, but when I
told him, he had tho nervo to just
smile at me, aud point out that while
1 could arrest him and send him to
prison, I could not get back Miss
Manchester, who would certainly be
murdered. What could wo do? We
got him to take SISOO, and ou tho fol
lowing morning Miss Manchester
came back home well and overjoyed
at her escape. She said that alter
sho had turned the corner she saw a
cab approaching. When it got oppo
site her it was driven to the street
curb, and the lieod of a dark woman
appeared at tho door. She asked Miss
Manchester if sho knew a certain ad
dress. Drawing near to answor, the
door opened, a shawl was Hung over
the girl's head, and she was pushed
into the cab and gagged. When tho
cab stopped and sho had been carried
into a room it was dusk. Tho room
iu which sho found herself was sparse
ly furnished, wliilo the windows were
barred and tho heavy door lockod. All
the while sho was watched by a swar
thy Italian, her guard beiug changed
morniug and uight. She was givou
all sho wautod to eat and was told she
would not be harmed if sho inado 110
effort to escape. That was all sho
know until she was again blindfolded
and gagged aud carried to a cab,
which left her at the spot from which
sho had been abducted." —New York
Commercial Advertiser,
A Leap l'or Life.
Bamucl Brady seems to have beon
as much tho hero of the northeast por
tion of tho Valley of tho Ohio as was
Daniel Boono of the southwest.
Brady's residence was iu that part
of Pennsylvania now called Washing
ton County. About tho year 1780 a
largo party of Indian warriors from
tho Falls of tho Cuyahoga made an in
road on to tho south side of the Ohio
River iu that part of Washington
County then known as Catfish Cam]).
They murdered several families aud
had recrossed the Ohi) boforo effect
ual puisuit could be made.
Brady collected his chosen followers
aud hurried after them. Near the
spot where tho town of Ravenna, tho
seat ot Portage County, Ohio, now
stands, the Indians separated into two
parties. Brady's men also divided,
but they pursued the Indians to tho
Cuyahoga. They were repulsed, how
ever, aud Brady directed his men to
separate, each ono to take care of him
self. The Indians recognized his
voice, and having au invoterate hatred
for him, left all other borderers and
followed him with uuitod strength.
Tho Indians forced him ou tho hanks
of tho stream. Brady was as familiar
with every turn of it as ho was with
the streets of his town.
Ho directed his course to a spot
wliero the whole stream is compressed
by tho rocky clill into a narrow chan
nel of only twenty-two feet across tho
top of the chasm. Through this pass
tho water rushes like a mill race, chaf
ing and roaring at its confinement.
As ho approached tho chosra, concen
trating his mighty powers, knowing
that life and death were in the effort
Brady leaped tho passat a bound.
lie began to uscend tho precipico on
tho other side, and the Indians, who
had refrained from firing because they
intended to take him alive for torture,
now shot at him. lie was wounded
severely in the hip, but not so badly
as to prevent his progress.
Tho Indians were compelled to make
a considerable circuit beforo they
could cross tho river, but Brady's
wound troubled him, and he mado for
the pond, which was situated near tho
road from Ravenna to the falls, known
in later years as Brady's Bond, lie
plunged into the water, swam benoath
tho surfneo some distance and hid un
der the trunk of nn oak tree that com
pletely covered him from observation.
Tho Indians wero standing on this
very treo when they exprossed then
belief that ho had met death in the
water, within earshot of tho safely
concealed borderer.
Tho chasm over which he leapod is
known in nil that region to this day
as Brady's Leap.
Heredity in Horses,
When Jim Wicks, the man-eating
stallion from Ban Jose, fell backward
and broke his neck, ho did tho very
best thing ho could have done. Tho
horse was evidently crazy, and it is
well that ho oan no longer hand down
to his progeny the crazy streak which
mado him so dangerous. 110 had no
more right to live thau a wild, un
tamed, man-eating tiger. The quality
of unrestrained ferocity is best checked
by a pistol bullet.—Sau I'ranoisco
