HIS REWARD.
A Gallant Young Fellow Showed the
Maiden Over the Boat and Escaped.
Liberty Landing is the name of a
smail place touched by the Wabash
railroad and the Missouri river. Be
fore the railroad came it was the
place at which boats stopped to send
goods over the hill to the town of
Liberty, in Clay county, the old home
of the’ James boys. Of course the
landing never amounted to very
much-those places never did, being
only depots for larger towns some
where back front the river from
which they got their names.
Our boat readied tlio lauding one
tieautiiul June morning utter
sunrise, and there was a larger crowd
to greet us than usual.
Among the visitors who came on
board was a pretty girl of twenty,
all spick and span in a new- calico ot
modest design, while her sweet face
peeped out: coyly 'from the great, old
fashioned.bonnet tjiat enveloped it.
She smiled. There was an instant
rush of all the young fellows on
board the boat to show her through
the steamer. Sylvester Cobb, of
Louisville, a wealthy youth of a
wealthier father, a planter, was the
first to reach her side:
“Let me have the pleasure of show
h ?■“, «r hc
raising his hat with much ceremony,
“I don't care,” said the maid sun
ply. “1 believe Id like to see how
she looks. ”
So they went on the upper deck,
where a good view of the river was
obtained, then into the officers’ qnar
ters of “the Texas,” as tho little coop
under the pilot house is called, then
into the pilot house itself, where the
young Kentuckian explained the
workings of the big wheel. They
rambled about for more than an
hour, 'examining the engines, the
furnaces under the long boilers amid
ships, the long “social hall,” or
saloon, wi tli its little doors opening
into staterooms, the piano was looked
upon wonderingly by tho Clay
county maid—then the bell rang,
warning visitors to go ashore.
“Hope you enjoyed yourself,” said
young Cobb, as he helped the girl
along the gang plank to the shore.
“1 did," she said, and her eyes fell.
She had noticed some one she did
not care to see.
“And when I come back next
month I’ll likely be on another boat.
I’d like to show you over her too.”
“I’d like it,” she said, “but I reckon
we’ll have to give it up.”
“Give it up 1” Cobb was interested,
“How’s that? I’d Lo. d: light;:A I’m.
sure.”
“Oh, I can’t tell,” she said, with
something of a coyness in her smile.
The second bell was ringing.
“Well, goodby, Miss—ah, ei-—good
by.” He extended his hand and she
took it.
“Yes, I’d like to look over the next :
boat with you, but”— and she
glanced under her lashes up tho lull
to a little crowd that stood there
only—to tell the truth, I’m going to
be married next month.”
“Oh 1 ” exclaimed Cobb “and I
can’t be here. Can’t you put it off ?”
h6 laughed.
“Not now I reckon,” the girl an
swered, holding his hand and glanc
ing up the hill again, “but-but you
can s'iute the bride now if you want
to »
The mate had given the order to
hoist the gang plank, and already the
ropes were creaking, while tlio big
stern wheel of the boat lieganto turn
slowly. Cobb knew that everybody
on board was looking at him, and he
knew, too, that tho lucky swain must
be in the crowd on the hillside. But
he saluted the bride. It was a rous
inwkiss. Ashe stooned to imorint
it a young fellow dashed out of one
towwdhLra° UP3 nhead and bound
ed ed to\\ aid him.
“Drop’er I” he shouted.
But Cobb was away like the wind,
and as he sprang on the stage it swung
down so as to almost throw him in
the water.
The young man shook , his fist an
grily
‘Dont, ..... pleaded , ,,, the girl, . , , laughing, , .
“Didn't you know I was only foolm
ail the time?
“But he kissed >«, yelled the
stalwart young maa
"Oh, John " she laughed, “ho was
only salutm the iinde.
And the laugh that rang out from
deck and shore was eclated time and
again front the hills of old Clay.—De

A Hot Land.
In eastern Oregon and southeast
era Washington stretches a vast
sandy plain. Some or the Presbyte
nan delegates passed through this
delightful sweatbox on their way to
Portland. There was one man among
them, though not of them When
the train reached Umatilla Junction
he looked out of the window at the
waving sea of sand dunes. A sol
einn look stole over his countenance,
the ridges of care hardened, his lips
parted and he gasped in low, rashing
tones, “Ill he darned if that bits
tered country won't have to be fer
tilized before*the resurrection day to
raise the dead.” The gurgle of a
loaded flask in action broke the pain
ful silence that ensued.—Omaha Bee.

Tlio Club 2 \iuong Savugos.
The club or mace was probably
the first, as it is tho most universal,
weapon, and every nation would
seem to have some form peculiar to
itself. The Maori spent years of
labor in grinding to shape his battle
dorelilce “merai” out of jade or
greenstone; the New Britain savage
makes a hole through a granite peb
ble by dropping water on it while
hot, and thus forms the head of his
club; the Fijian found ready to his
hand a tree, whose evenly radiating
roots he trimmed into an exact like
ness of the mediaeval “morgenstern,”
wherewith the Swiss battered down
the Austrian ranks at Sempach.
The mace of the Persian horseman
was of steel, with a head formed of
six or more radiating blades or ridges,
and had often a basket hilt like a
sword. The terrible Mahmud of
Ghazni, like the knight of Border
song, “nt his saddle girth had a good
steel sp«*rthe, full ten pound weight
and more,” and it was with this that
he shattered tho idol of Souinaulh

years’ seniority of tho former artist

B00U thereafter the strange music
which breaks the stillness of the
desert swells into a chorus partia
pated in by all the members of the
tawny troop.
^ is the gathering of t ie coyotes,
allt ^ a re out, then appetites
sharpened by the crisp air, to gain
their regular breakfast of jerked
jack rabbit meat. There is a sniffling
among the sage and gronsewood by
the avant conn-tors of the sharp
toothed brigade. Meantime all the
others have been deployed in such a
maimerthat^^fleet boen raised from las fortWd lau jack
passed on and on. xlie coyotes usually
grange themselves m the foi *11 of a
long ellipse. Ihus the jack, how
erei largo and strong, and wlietliei
as the wind, is sure tout last

Ho cannot get out for a wily coyote

Pursuit tires.^ another, frcslias tho air
^ the morning, takes up the chase.
Thus an untiring Nemesis is always
after him, and in due time the tired,
panting rabbit falls a prey to the yel
low troop.
At tho death they all rush in, their
iaws working like last flying shear
tdades. The rabbit is cut in pieces,
snapped up and eaten, and then an
other weird reveille is sounded and
another jack is started up; and thus
they go for two or three hours some
times, until tho hunger of all is up
peased.
This hunting in troops enables each
of the brigade of coyotes to get a
good meal. If hut one of tho coyotes
were to start after the rapidly flying
jack he would become quickly w ind
ed without affecting tho jack what
ever; but with relays of coyotes, and
Jne always to take up the chase when
the other is tired, victory soon perches
on their banner,
Tho coyote army is most scientific
ally generaled. The commander-in
chief, a veteran of tho chase, usually
sits on some slight eminence, his
lieutenant and aids being in full view
to repeat his orders.
Never was there a better drilled
ambuscades and tho tactics of the
field generally it will take studied a long
time to flnd out. I have
them much. It is one of tho most
interesting sights of tho desert to see
the marshaling of the coyotes at the
sounding of tho weird reveille .and
watch their capture of the rabbits.—
