a change was decided upon, and a
committee of one was appointed
to ask for the preacher's resigna

sands of hands-from the less aristo

demonstration of their owners' intensi
appreciation of the brilliant m?sica

Yet what a mockery was this, coming
when the air was still impregnated witt
the subtle melody. How that generoui
tribute of approval grated on the ears!
The young man in front of me did no'
applaud, nor did the pretty young lad]
who"was with him. Neither of . then
spoke a word. Presently the young mai
looked around at the demonstrative au
dience with a look of contempt on hi:
face.
When the house had again becom<

young lady and 'said: "How charming

A Visit to Damas.. ; .?
It .was during my second visit to Parii
ia 1842 that I met Dumas; Whenever J
called I was told that he was not up yet,
until I concluded that he spent the whole
day in bed. At hist, when I had callee
] laif a dozen times in vain, I sent up mj
letter and determined to wait until he
f hould get up.. After awhile the seryanl
returned and asked me to accompany
him to M. Dumas' bedroom. ^ Ii was a
splendidly furnished room, but in greal
disorder. As I entered Dumas looked
up, nodded kindly to me and said, _"Sit
down a minute; I am just haring a. visit
from a lady;-' and seeing my astonish
ment he burst into a hearty laugh and
aided: "It is my muse. Sh o will bf
going directly."
He was sitting up in bed as hajsaid
this, writing 'at; lightning speed-in-s
clear, beautiful' hand, and shying^each
sheet as he finishe/fit across tho floor in
all directions. I could-scarcely step for
fear of"; spoiling his manuscript J
waited Jor ten or fifteen minutes, during
which he kept scratching away, crying
out every now and then, "Viva! Bon,
mon garcon I" "Excellent Alexandrer
At last, with a jerk as of an earthquake,
he rolled his huge form out of bed,
wrapped the .blanket about brm toga
fashion, and in this costume advanced
toward me, declaiming furiously afc the
top of his voice. As he strode along
with theatrical gestures I fell back, half
alarmed at his vehemence, and when I
had reached the door he seized me by
the lapels of my coat, shook me gently
and said:' "Now isn't that magnificent,
eh? Superb; worthy: of- Barine I" I as
sented, as soon as I could catch my
breath, that it .was very , magnificent.

-.' 'Xboujght;a large iron gray pack mule
to carry "my goods across the Sierra.
Nevadas.. I. christened Min Pete. The
day after we started we-Pete and I
came to a nice grassy place. I tethered
Pete "to a tree, allowing him about
twenty. feet range, and taking some
ham and crackers out of my haversack
sat down on a fallen tree to eat them.
While llmunched the ham and crackers
Pete ;crppped ?he | fresh gfass,j which
grew long =and green! Suddenly he
reared up and snorted in a manner that
very plainly said, "Look outl" ?
I sprang to my feet, and it was quite
well I did so, for it saved me from the
embrace pf a very large, very hungry
and very ferocious grizzly .bear, who
was standing erect and preparing to
throw his paws around me. I rushed
for the nearest tree and was up in it in
the winking of an eye.
I was safe for the time being, but,
alas, poor Pete! The bear went about
things in a very cool and complacent
manner. I could see by the expression
of his eyes that he was taking Pete's
measure, for he cocked his head over on
one side and assumed an appearance of
great wisdom, as you have seen critics
look at a picture.,
Pete's behavior, much as I had al
ready learned pf that remarkable ani
mal, surprised.r/je. j When I .was safe
his alarm disappeared altogether. He
dropped his head and began to nibble
the grass agair He went on with his
grazing just as if there were. no such
thing as a grizzly bear in the world. He
would: nip off the succulent green stems
and chew with great steadiness and
regularity, .and occasionally I could
hear his contented snort as he struck an
unusually delicate bunch of grass.
PETE KEPT ON GRAZING.
The bear was as much astonished as I
was. Evidently he considered such con
duct without a parallel, for he looked
harder than ever at Pete, then scratched
his head and tried to think out an an
swer to the problem. But Pete calmly
went on with his grazing and looked
neither to the right nor to the left, while
I sat in ray tree and held my breath.
By and bj* th? bear arose, made a
grand circuit around the tree in order
to watch Pete from every angle and
point. Getting no satisfaction out of
that mode, of procedure he came over to
my tree and looked up at me for an an
swer. But I had none to give him.
Between the bear and me we?began to
think that Pete had lost his mind. "Per
haps, fright at the appearance of the
Dear had so bereft him of reason that
he continued to eat grass through the
mere force of habit.
Soon the- grizzly's appetite overcame
his curiosity and he prepared for work.
He seemed to me to make a critical ex
amination of his destroying apparatus
He stretched his front paws and slapped
the muscles of each with the other. E vi
.dently he was satisfied that he was in
good trim. for he.8hpwed"MB great teeth
with joy.. - He appeared, satisfied that he
was fit to demolish a.whole drove of
mules.
These things done, the bear gave the
signal for action. He opened his mouth
and emitted a series of growls which
made my flesh- creep%and my hair rise
tinder my hat. ' V?
PETE STOPPED FOR A MINUTE.
j. Pete went on grazing?" His- counte
nance expressed no proof that he had
heard the growling of the grizzly. The
latter dropped on all fours, with his
hungry mouth open and his great teeth
disclosed. Still Pete made no sign that
he either saw or heard, but confined his
attention strictly to the business of find
ing dinner. The bear, also having' the
latter in view, rapidly approached until
he was in striking distance, and then,
rearing up, prepared to disembowel
Pete and break his neck with one blow.
Down came the outstretched paws, and
at that moment Pete seemed to become
aware for the first time of the presence
of tile grizzly. He sprang forward, the
paws struck only the air and then I saw
a gray form double itself into a ball and
bound upward. Out of that ball flew
two legs,; which shot back and forth
with the. rapidity of piston rods, going
thump, thump upon the body of the
grizzly.' Up and down went the body
and back and forth wont the two pile
drivers. The bear was struck-all-over,
on his head, on his shoulder, on his side,
on his paws. He fell in one direction
and then in another. He was .kicked
into the air and pounded into the earth.
The breath was driven put of him and
life followed, and at length he lay upon
the ground a shapeless mass,, every bone
in his body broken, while Pete had qui
etly returned to his interrupted grazing
without a hair injured.-Louisville Cour
