Buck Stradling - . Tom Snuffle were hunting with me in the western part of Texas, just south of.the famous El Cano hJstacado. We 1 \ had cone into the interior more for sport v ' than anything else, carine very little ff : * " whether wp secured more game than ? answered for our immediate wants or t ? not. Penetrating still further and further , -toward the Mexican dominion, we r ) _' finally struck a barren, parched country, 2 upon which we entered with some hesitation. " This looks as though we shan't find any water," I remarked, as we reined up . r our horses and took a survey of the arid piaiu* .. "Does look rather skeery," replied ** StraiUing, taking his short, black pipe * . from his inouth, "but I guess we'll try it. It'll make a f=oit of variety to this " eternal trarapin2.,, * "But what will we do without water?" I asked. " Why, you see, there is water four or five miles back of us; so we can go ahead for a day, and, il we can't find anything, why, we can turn round and make back trarks. It'll go rather tough, but it won't hurt us. My idea." continued the trapper, growing philosophical. " is, that we nevrr know what "water is till we've gone two or three days without it. iust as the only way to get a good, sound, refreshing sleep is to ait up for a couple of nirhts." ' V So it was concluded that v?e should *\ venture upon this unknown Sahara; and, giving rein to our horses, we struck off" upon an easy gallop. ' * We saw nothing of buffalo or deer, and more than once I questioned the . prudence of the step. but. as we were actuated somewhat by curiosity. I said nothinir. and wn nressprl fnrarn.rr1. We had an abundance of dried meat, u ,"V~ which, no doubt, would last us all the jfc; * time necessary. Now and then we ; A - caught sight of an antelope, but tliey ' . were very shy. and kept at a distance T. which placcd them beyond all danger of our guns. As we were riding along, and had come to the conclusion that it would be impassible to secure any game. I was sure I discerned a pair of antler? beyond a swell in the prairie, and declared as .. much to my companions, but thej only 5K laughed al me. and told me to give up . * the foolish thought. I was certain, ' JUowever. that I had really seen the ani' mal, and, a< there was a chance to frocure something palatable for supper, assured them tiiat I would do so. . They told me to go ahead, while they " S reined their animals down to a walk and pursued their way more leisurely. However, the antelopes were 1.000 feet distant, upon a smooth, grassy slop". There was not the slightest ' covering to protect an approach, and I began to debate with mvseif upon the best course to pursue. Should I imitate the call of one of their number in distress? There was something so in .. - human in that that I revolted at the mougnt, ana took tne consolation that * no true hunter would descend to such meanmss. Should I tic my red handkerchief upon my ramrod, and take ad' vantage of their curosity? They were too shy. Ah! an idea struck mo. My eye suddenly rested upon a bluish line ranuing across the pniirie, beyond where the -animals were feeding. It was either a buffa'oroad or the channel of an arroyo; but, whichever it was. it was the very cover I wanted, and I determined v to take immedia'.e advantage of it. Retreating as stealthily from the * " thicket as I had entered it, I hurried ;* ;* along the side of the slope toward a - poirt where I had observed that the ridge was depressed to the level of the pain. Rea :him; this, to my still g reate - sarpris* I found myself on the banks of *. a broad arroyo, whose water slowly meandered over a hed of sand and gypsoA. The banks were two or three te t above the surface of the stream. eaceept whew the ridge came down upon ' the stream. Here was quite a high bluff, and, hurrying around its base, I slopped hr " 1Into ?>ip channel and commenced wading upward. ; i'tiis was quite a difficult feat, a3 the bed "of the ercek was soft and yielding. And 1 "was obliged to tread very cautiously and s;owiy, lest 1 should alarm the game. The antelope is one of the most timid of animals, and has a wonderfully acute sense of hearing?so much rfo, tliat none but the most experienced hunt ere can approach him. After creeping along in this wearisome manner for several hundred jards, I J reached a small clump of wormwood bushes growing out on the bank. Thinking this mi^ht be high enough to v answer for cover. I concluded to take advantage of it. 1 slowly raised myself . up and peered through the leaves. I hail ;iist the right plac?,and, sighting at thef in-art of the buck, I pulled the trig"cer. The brute sprang np and diopped dead, I 77.13 on the point of running " . . forward to claim the prize, when I saw \ ' the doe run up to its fallen mate and * - >; snuff at it as if bewildered at the occurence. Suddenly she seemed to comprehend the sad truth, and, throwing back .her head, began utterinz the most nlm'n. ,.tivcand piteous cries, while she occasionally ran round the bo*?'y, as if totally unable to control her grief. As I watched the mournful actions of / the doc. and heard its piteous cries, I saw that it would be a mercy to kill it ^ and end its misery. Actuated by what, * * perhaps, was a questionable humanity, I took a careful aim, pulled the trigger, - pnd, as the smoke cleared away, 1 disjr covered the doe lying dead with its thead rcstirg upon its departed mate. "Both are out of distress,'' was m\ confortiiig reflection, "and I have secured a rare supper, with which I will tickle the palates of ray two friends, and convince hem that they are n.>t the only oncfc who have a knowledge of hunting ?but what i* the meaning of thisi" I attempted to move., and found both 5 ' ? feet fast. My tirst thought was that I had been stricken with paralysis, and a chill ran over me irom head to foot. Hut no; I could feel the blood courslnz . to the remotest part of my system, and j I tugged like a giant. I tried to step. | twisted to the right and left, wrcnched " mv body, but all in vain?I was fast. * . Suddenly the truth flashed upon me? I sinking in a quirksand. "With this knowledge came a fiereo resolve not to succumb, I would wrench off my feet before I would consent to die in this inglorious and dreadful manner. Summoning all the strength of which I was master, I tugged and pullrd and twisted with the lury of madness. an8 then paused exhausted, and found that the only result .was that I had sunk several inches deeper in the quicksand. The soft, clinging sand was already at the top of my boots, and had so wedged them around my ankles that it was impossible to pull them off. All the time ] I could feel myself sinking slowly and ( surely, as though some monster, deep in the bowels of the earth, had grasped , me by the feet and was gradually draw- , ing me under. Almost beside myself with terror, 1 shouted for help,'.{and then I laughed ' wildly at the idea of my voice reaching | anyone. I w;is miles away from any ' person. The only living creature within 1 hearing was my horse, and he answered me with a neigh, as if sympathizing with me In my despair. i Ard now I tried to think coolly upon i my position. Was there really no possi,T.or, rsf ovt?;n(iHnrr rr.T7Qf.lf? St nv f I 'lie " <4J Vi CAbllliUiUUg iwttj . Suppose I should lay my rifie horizontally across the sand, would it not orevent my sinking? Perhaps so; at least I could try it. I looked around for my gun, but nothing of it wjis to be seen. That, too, alas! had sunk beneath the surface. Could I digmy wayouti No; the sand streamed into the hollow as often as I tore it with my frenzied fingeis. Could I not lie flat on my back, and thus stay my downward progress? The thought was dismissed the moment it : came to me. The water was eighteen inches deep, and I should drown at once. Oh, heavens! dying by this slow, torturing process. The thought drove me mad for the time. . After a while I became cool again, i If 1 must die, I must; and I aroused myself to meet it manfully. I Ftoorl 3 * J l'/vn/l V*o/1 otinl' I erect ana iouna mat my uv-?u , to the nrairie level, and I could just see < the victims of my heartlessness. My j heart reproached me at the sight. Wa ] not this a .just retribution for the misery < I had inflicted? What right had I to shoot those poor, innocent creatures j who had never harmed me! Was it not the final adjustment of justice that j I should be made to feel and suffer the , same pangs that I had inflicted upon , them ? Such, and familiar, were the thoughts that coursed through my seething brain. I raised my eye3 to heaven, and almost expected to see a frown ol Divine anger for the part I had taken. But no; the 1 sun was shining as bright and the shy J wasAscerulean and mild as ever. No; I whatever transgressions I had com- t mitted, I knew there was nothing but ? forgiveness and love bending over me, 1 and I prayed as only sinful man can I pray when encompassed by certain < death. i But all the time I was sinking? sink- 1 ing slowly but surely, and the moment ! could not be distant when I should be swallowed up and disappear from view i entirely, and those who should come to ' search for me could only surmise my 1 fate. I had taken my lost fond look upon ' the green, fair earth. I could only ase J the blue, clayey wall which held the ! stream, and the water which ran un- 1 heeding by me. Again I looked up at I the blue sweet sky, and then endeavored J to resign myself to my fate. But I could not; the memories of the fair earth and ' my past pleasures and friends camc so \ vividly over me that I found myself J continually bursting into struggling 1 spasms to escape, but all equally fruit- ] less as were the first feeble attempts to ' walk. In the midst of this.racking suspense ! I was startled by the shrill neighing of my horse. At first this gave me inde- ' scribablc distress, as I could not avoid contrasting his free situation with my J own. But suddenly a bright thought ; flashed over me. Could not my horse rescue me? Ho was tied to a frail cactus limb which he could easily break, it he chose. j Without losing time?for time was , never so precious?I uttered a call which I had olten used to brixa him to me; ] then listened with an anxiety which it : is useless for me to attempt to depict, , Suddenly I heard the sound of his hoofs. : as though he were struggling to free himself, and the next moment I recog- : nizea his well-known tramp, and knew ' thof ho was annrnaohiriB'. Then he , suddenly appeared on the bank, and, ! lookinc down at me, uttered a joyful i neigh of recognition. 1 Peculiar attachment exists between the hunter and his horse, and it was a | j habit of his, whenever I called to him. to gallop up to me and press his nose , against my cheek. Reaching out my \ hands toward him. in my usual caress-' < ing manner, I repeated the call. The { next moment he bounded down into j the channel, and I caught him by the , bridle. Time was becoming fearfully ! { precious. I was already down to my c waist in the wafer. I seized the lariat, / and, pressing it under the saddle-girths, . secured it in a firm knot. I then made t 1 ? ? ?-1 mr KaHW U iOOp IIUU pnssai lbaiuuuu mj wuj. t Heaven bless the noble horse ! The T tears well to my eyes when I reflect up- j on the grand creature to whom a few ? years ago I gave an honorable grave in ] the broad prairie. All the time I be- , litvehe comprehended my sore strait, ? and understood perfectly what was re- \ quired of him. lie knew, too,? the , treacherous nature of the ground upon ? which he stood, for while waiting he ] continued lifting his feet and slightly ] charging his position to prevent his i sinking. Finally, I had my arrange- j ments completed, and I gave the word . to the horse to move. The intelligent | animal stepped off very slowly, pulling j gradually, but with all his tremendous 1 strength. To my inexpressible joy, I f felt my body raising, and in less than a minute I was pulled clean out of the ] sand, upon the hard, clayey^bank. j Thank heaven! and my true, tired, no olc horse! i I threw my arms around his neck I and kissed him, and shoutei for joy. And had I not a right to do so? And ' did I do more than my duty when I refused all offers to part with him, and kept him with all the care and kindness that I would have nursed a feeble parent? Beethoven's Violin* < S.ime time ago a highly interesting and valuable musical relic came into the . possession of Edward Kunwald, a merchant in the city of London. It appears i Beethoven before his death bestowed his favorite violin upon one of his most in- ! tioiate friends, Herr Carl Holz, whose widow parted with it last year to its present owner. The sealed mahogany ! case containing this precious instrument ' wft3 deposited, upon its arrival in London, with the Messrs. Comerford, notaries Dublic. and bvthem formally ODened . in the presence of Dr. Joachim and llerr j Gustav Ellisen. Within it reposed a violin, upon the back of which the letter " B " was roughly scratched, acertificate of ownership, signed " Elize Holz, geborn von Bognar," and officitu documents in the German languag6~8ttesting the authenticity of this signature, as well as that of Beethoven himself, ap pcnded to a portrait of the great master, engraved bv Selb, and subscribed "To Herr von flolz, from his friend Beethoven," the omission of an "e" being noticeable in the autographic signature as well as in the title of the print. An enchased portrait of Beethoven is also let into the lid of the violin-case; and Frau von Holz's certifica'e runs as follows: 44 My husband, Carl Holz. received this violin from his friend, Ludwigvon Beethoven, as a present, and after the death of my husband it became my property. Vienna, 14 June, 1879." Professor Joachim tried the violin upon the occasion above alluded to, and pronounced it to be an instrument of considerable merit. A Beau's Duel. The following story is told of Fighting Fitzgerald, a celebrated beau, gam oier, norseman ana duelist. After Bis return from Ireland, an old gentleman declared his intention of trying to curc 1 Fitzgerald of bis love of dueling, and I one day provoked him to a contest. His ! friends tried in vain to persuade him not to eo out. " Leave me alone,'' he ' said, "I'll settle hira. I have got the 1 choice of arms. Each of us shall be 6 mounted, each shall choose his own ' weapons, a space shall be marked out, ' and whoever first crosses the boundary I sha^l be declared vanquished." Fitz- ( gerald being informed of these strange J proposals did not like to reiuse, and con; tident in his admirable horsemanship and skill in all his weapons, accepted. *c He appeared on the ground superbly | I moun ted on a riery steed and armed with 1 [ pistols. To the surprise and mirth of 1 all, the old gentleman trotted up on a j doDkey, carrying a bladder with dried ' peas in.' ide, and a scarlet cloak in his hand. W aving the cloak and snaking his rattle, lie rode into the space; off started tt.'C fiery courser, and before i Fitzgerald knew where he was he had c crossed the boundary and iost the duel, s The ridicule was too much for him, and r Le never " went out" again.

T For weddings creamy white satin is v being used for the entire dress, with lace md tulle for trimmings. The dress worn 11 by the Queen of Spain at her marriage, ^ the Medicis corsage, and other pictur- tl esque models, are copied, the only uni- w [orm features being the high corsage and P1 the flowing train. The corsage is, " strictly speaking, high in the back only, ? is the front is now invariably cut in r< heart shape or square, and filled in as ^ rrfuch or as little as the wearer chooses with tulle and lace, and richly orna- f1 oiented with the pearl passementeries that are now so fashionable. These 10 beaded trimmings surround the open neck, and are placcd straight down the J' top of the sleeves, being mounted there ^ an net to make the tront Halt ot the "* 3leeve transparent, whiie the thick satin :? is used under the arm. Lace and pearl Jn applique work are festooned flatly on the Si front and side breadths, and clusters of r white roses are used with fringes of Ia Drange blossoms and buds.

Fuller trimmings ol luce ind plaitings are put on the front, and P.J side breadths than on the train. When 11 combinations are preferred, large ball w figures or else detached flowers are in u] the brocaded satin used for a court train, 01 with a Medicis basque of brocade, and 8* plain white satin for the elaborate front 2* that simulates a petticoat. Fringes of V1 white pearl edging quaintly cut basques, w and poufs of satin on the sleeves, are on imported wedoing dresses. Long scarf- tc like pieces of point lace are imported w with lace trousseaux to be used first as J bridal vails, and afterward as mantillas . ar as overskirt drapery: the bride has ai ane end of this scarf fastened far forw ard f, in her couture, then caught up on each " shoulder, and falling thence low on the m train of her dress. Bridemaids wear simple and charm- P.1 ing dresses of white muslin, with Jl< joTorefl ribbons and Leghorn hats, in aJ the English fashion, or else they have white Spanish lace veils draping the head like the mantillas of Spanish at women. Dotted Swiss muslin was re:ently worn by the six bridemaids at a n! fashionable wedding. Pale blue satin ?J{ ribbon belts and bows trimmed their * square-decked basques and their round Lrains. Their hats were Leghorn, in [Taiosborough shape, with blue ribbon ind flowers outside, and blue velvet nside the brim. India muslin, with sa fards upon yards of Languedoc lace lor of rimming, was chosen for another group h? )f attendants, while still others pre- ni erred the soft, clinging, white, trans- 14 mrent wool called religieuse veiling, d( rimmed with Spanish lace, and accom- 01 janied by Spanish mantillas fastened on cl vith scarlet flowers. Imported dresses w 'or bridemaids are of white brocaded ci iatin or of Lvons tulle, in manv nlait- fo ngs, with a border of satin-stripod cc grenadine on each plaited flounce.

S The heirs of the Jenrens or Jennings E estate, savs a New York paper, have t< been among the most active"of many 5 American fortune hunting families.

In 1849 fiftyiue per cent, and in 1859 fifty-two per ent. of the corn crop of the country wa3 roduced in the Southern States. In 377, 850,000,000 bushels were grown in ?hio, Indiana. Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska, while the proriuconofalltherestof the Union amounted j 494,558,000 bushels. The increase of lie tobacco crop has been chiefly in the outh, where the production increased [>0,000,000 pound- from 1870 to 1878. luring the same period the yield of cotjn increased from 3,012,000 bales to ,216,600. This increase was mainly in .rkansas and Texas, the crop of the ir-mov stntp awollino from 111.000.000 ounds in 1870 to 318,000,000 in 1878, ad that of the latter State from 157,10,000 pounds in 1870 tJ nearly 500,. )0,000 in 1878. According to the writer Iready cited, only about nine per cent. {our entire grain crop is exported, inuding 24.70 per cent, of the wheat ad 6.49 per cent, of the corn produced. he exports lmve rapidly increased in le past few vears, and are likely to in ease in the future, especially if the cost " transportation shall be reduced, hus, the total exports of all cereals inleased from 39,000,000 bushels in 1808 ? 169,000,000 in 1378. About three per ;nt of the national product was e.x>rtca in 1868. and nearly eleven per int. in 1878. In addition to this, the rportation of live-stock, into which >rn enters more or less, has increased nfold within the past twj years. A Tea-l'arty. At a recent tea-party at New Rochelle, . Y., the ladies all wore old-fashioned .mpiers for aprons upon each of which le legend "l'olly put the kettle on" as rudelj inscribed over a freely consntionalized tea-kettle.

The Capers of a Locomotive. To a reporter of the San Francfsc Bulletin an engineer of the Centra Pacific railroad Jaid: "It's a quec thin?. There's my engine in perfec order, and one of the bC3t in the Stati She's only twelve years old, and abJ to run or pull with the best of then A month ago I hadn't the least bit < trouble in making time, no matter ho' the track was or the weight of th train. She was ready at the word, hel her steam beautifully, and she seeme to understand every word I said. T< day she is down in the roundhouse growling and sputtering, and acting s if she wanted to pick a fuss with gravel pit." " Anything out of gear?" "Not a thing. She's been looke over twice, and we can't find the lea; excuse for licr conduct, one issimpj sulking, the same as a child or a womai But I know what started it. Thr< weeks ago, while on my run out wit the night express, she just wanted t light out for all she was worth, Sli took the bit like a running horse, and I hadn't choked her off she'd hp.v beaten the schedule time by twent minutes. She acted mad right awa] and in running twenty miles she gav me more trouble than I had ever ha with her in a run of three hundrec She lost steam, tried to foam ovei choked her pipes, and when 1 wante more steam she'd slide on her driven She went right back on me that nigh and has been sulking ever since." "All locomotives do not do Mat-, suess," said :in engineer of the Ne\ York, Lake Erie and Western railroac to whom the above conversation wa repeated: 411 have heard these freak of locomotives, but most of them ar Mother Goose stories. I have run o our road thirty-eight years, and if locomotive does not run two davs' alik it is easily accounted for. The faui lies always in the character of the labc to which it is allotted. The locomotiv is as perfect to-day as yesterday, bi one day she may be fed with good fue while at others it may be adulterated one day the airs may be in good rur ning order, no wind and light load another day, heavy load, head wind* some new cars or new wheels unde the cars, or it may be new brake shoe rubbing against tne wneeis, an t which will cause a change in the mc tion of the locomotive. An engine tha has a regular man who takes care of hi engine never finds her in the su'ks But let a new hand jump into the cal and Ilia trouble begins almost immedi ately. He does not get the manner*c pumping her at once, and gets her a lit tie too full of water, cuts the valves, th sxtra amount of friction beinz mor than the set screws in the eccentrics ca 3tand, they stiffen, then the engine be comes three-legged, or lame, as it i called. The fact of the valves bein cut causea a leakage :>f steam, whicl makes the engine blow, very much rc 3 mbling a wheezy horse. An engin to do eood service should be in the car of the same engineer continually, and locomotive will demand as Jaitnit] Jaily service to insure uniform be havior as is necessary to preserve a first ilass trotting horse." An English engineer of Toronto, 01 being asked what mileage a locomotiv sould make without repairs, said tha lie knew of one running 103.661 mile in five years. Dut the endurance of ai engineer is something wonderful. On man for several years rode 176 mile per day, or 1,056 miles per week, o 1,576 for a month of twenty-six work ing dajs, or a total of 55,088 miles fo Dne year of 313 working days. As to the responsibilities of a passen ?er engineer, another said those 01 in American have been increased tenfoli in the past few years by the adoptioi af the air brake. Now he can depent an no one in time of trouble, nor can h lay blame on any one. The entire trail is under his control, and he has often unknown to the passengers, averted jerious accident by the quick applianc jf the brakes.

These animals ha-* . the reputation of being able to ma] , more noise in proportion to their si; than any other animal yet discovere t except perhaps the tree frog. In the r native woods, just before sunrise, the . howlers commence, and their dism i howls, it is said, can be heard for mil , around. They are enabled to make th 3 terrific noise by reason of a.special d > velopment of vocal organs. They a i small animals, and are generally four 1 in South America. The ones at tl J garden are known as the "mantl< j howlers," because of a line of gray ha 3 around the back and sides, and are tl , most northern of several species. Thi , are the first which have ever been in tl >. ornr^on n? t.hpv nxp sp.ftrce and hard ; capture. Besides that they are ve: i delicate, as was shown by the fact th 1 the four which arrived here are all th * was left of fourteen which were se from Nicaragua. To capture those fou ? teen little monkeys it took about eighte men tor several hours, and necessitat ] the cutting down of about four acres trees. A tribe or lot of the anims . were observed in the forest, and tl 0 method by which they were secured w . briefly as follows: The men first si r rounded the tribe, so as to drive the as closely together as possible. Th an outside rinc: of trees were cut dow the fall of which drove the monke still closer to the center. More tre were lelled, until but a single clujip , two or three trees was left standin a and the monkeys were sheltered in th< . branches. Then one after another 1 these trees were cut down, so that i - the tribe had to take refuge in one tr( ? TVia a niimkor r%f fhPm YC 3 then a comparatively easy matter. T - four little strangers were placed in o r of the cages in the monkey house. Wi 1 them arrived a "black-handed spid 1 monkey." specimensjof which have be in the collection belore.
