E 36 gg| A Martyr to the Fox. A fox can climb almost as well as a cat and will often be found lying in trees and on the top of ivy covered walls. High walls covered with ivy often surround private residences in hunting districts. One of these domain walls caused the tragic death of a hound in the south of Ireland a few years ago. There was a belt of trees with thickish undergrowth close up to the wall, and the hounds were running a tired fox hard through this belt. Suddenly the cry ceased; there were the unmistakable growling and worrying which proclaim a kill. The masitimnft,! r-fe hie hnrcE* nml nnshod CCT1 JUlii[JVU VI*. A his way through the undergrowth. On getting to the pack, instead of finding a dead fox he saw to his horror one of the best hounds torn to pieces. It was easy to understand what had happened. The fox had got over the wall by the help of some Ivy, and the hound had tried to jump over after him. but, falling back among the others, had been killed before they realized their mistake.?London Standard. The End of the Cha6e. Two ladies, friends of the superintendent, were visiting a hospital for the insane. During the noon meal the superintendent remarked that the door of the violent ward was being repaired and that the guards would have to be unusually watchful until it was finished. After dinner the ladies went for a stroll down the beautiful lane leading up to the main building. Suddenly they heard footsteps as of some one running behind them and were horrified on looking around to see a disheveled, wild eyed man pursuing them. One of the women quietly stepped to the side of the road. The other, screaming at the top of her voice, ran down the road with the maniac close upon her heels. At last, spent with running and gasping with fright, crouching in anticipation of the blow which she was expecting, she waited her fate. The man, panting and grinning, tapped her lightly on the shoulder and said: "Tag! You're it."?Cleveland Leader.
