Wo had just tolled up our' blanket*,
after camping ojdt, prcr«rntory t» niak-
ins up tl*o flit? and jarans tha billle* on
to (toil, when we heard the heavy thud
of n kangaroo leaping rapidly toWMBR
boring icrab. "It wo» tlie work « •
moment," as thb old fashioned novelist*
used lossy, to get out our revolvers on
the clianco of a shots tut we pause<i to
watch on Interesting sight. A dingo was j
stealing swiftly along tho edge of the
scrub, parallel totliooouiso of tlio kan
garoos and In ordinary circumstances a
leaden messenger would have been
promptly sent after him, with all the
more probability of stopping him, ae he
paused occasionally to listen; but possible
kangaroo steak .was just then uppermost
in our minds. In a ininuto or two the
kangaroo suddenly broke from tho open
countrv, and tlie dingo, for whom ho
rvas evidently unprepared, made a splen
did dash and pinned the marsupial-by
tho shoulder. Almost instantly after-
ward a second dingo, who had no doubt
boom, driving the game toward his -com-,
panion, rawed out of the scrub and took
the kangaroo on the Opposite, side. In
spite of tho'poor beast's violent bounds
hither and thithor, he soon rolled over;
and In an astonishingly short* tirno the
dingoes had pagan end to hit straggles.
"A fresh feed for certain now," whis
pered tho stockman, and we began crawU.
teg on our bands and knees toward the*
spot, about 100 yards away, for a shot at
the dingoes, who had been too much
occupied in thd excitement of the chase
to notice us. The slightest noise, the
cfashoe breaking of a dead twig, or per
haps the motion of a tall blade of grass,!
sufficed to alarm tbeih,ac<I though the
revoivw bullets cut up the earth cloee to
them, both went away unsootbed. Tho
kangaroo was quite 'dead. How they
had mauled him in than two or three
minutes I His chest was tom Open under
the foreleg, and his neck bitten, through
and through. These wild dofts seem, to
know instinctively when the great ar
teries ate situated, and, unlike <mr do
mestic hounds, understand perfectly
well how to kill a kangaroo without ’in
curring the risk of a fatal stroke from its
powerful hind legs, armed with those
formidable chisel like nails. Some fresh
cut steaks off the kUn put us {n good trim
for iha day’s work.—Chambers’ Journal.

The civilised woman when she wants
to bo wooed Attempts to herself as
' attractive as possible. So does the Chil-
cat woman, but'She lias a different idea
of what is, attraodveoM. One evening,
after all tho fishing osaoes came In, I law
a young squaw, robed from head to foot
in a deep red blanket, sitting stolidly on
. the end of a greet spruce log a few rods
away from the cannery and at a short
distance from where the fishing canoes
were moored, and where the fires of the
Chilcat fishermen had 1 been lighted.
■When, out of curiosity at her singular
^ I found that she had blackened her face
until it waft bladccr than that of tho or
dinary negro minstrel
♦Tliero was not a trace of her native
duskiness, but the artificial black shone
ns if it wefo composed and put on from
«n article of good French blocking. In
addition to tliat a long silver pin was
stock in Iter under lip and extended out
from tho chin a coupid of inches, while a
heavy silver ring hung from lier nostrils
and a host of mamive stiver bracelets
adorned her wrists. She was. simply a
belle of the woods and of Clulcat Inlet
endeavoring to tnako known to the young
bucksoround that eho was in the • matri
monial market according to nativo cus
tom livre. After sitting for an hour or
more and not attracting any more atten
tion than that prompted by my own curi
osity, she left her twilight wooing place,
•shook out tho folds of her red blanket,
and walked with on air of indifference to
an old tent on the beach, which appeared
to bo her habitation, and disappeared.—

The Earth Slowly ChaSgipg.
In tho unlverfio everything is chang
ing and everything is in motion, for mo
tion itself is tho first condition of vital
ity. Tho firm ground, long thought to
be immovable, is subject to incessant
.motion; the very moimtains rise or sink.
Not only do tho winds and ocean cur
rents circulate round the planet, but the
continents themselves, with their sum
mits and valleys, are changing their
places and slowly traveling round tho
circle of tho globe. In order to explain
all these geological phenomena it is no
longer necessary to Imagine alterations
in the earth’s rods, ruptures of the solid
crust or gigantic subterranean downfalls.
This not the tnodo in which nature gen
erally proceeds; she is more calm and
more regular to her operations, and,
chary of her might, brings' about
changes of the grandest character with
out even tho knowledge of the beings
that she nourishes. She upheaves rnoun-
.tains and dries up Etas without disturb
ing tho flight of tho gnat. Some revolu
tion which appears to us to have been
produced by a* mighty cataclysm lias,
perhaps, taken thousands of years to ac
complish. —Science.
