Thc hulk of the blaine is charged by thc Admiral not ttl himself or his licet, but to tho Spanish Government for its unpre pared condition. Ile also claims that Admiral howey kept out of range of thc Spanish guns-a proceeding which Montejo refers to as a "re treat." Montejo says: "Thc only prepara tion that had been made for war was made by the Americans, who were business, who arranged everything with pencil and paper. The ini tial velocity of our cannon was 510 metre:'; that of the smallest cannon of our enemy's was 7;">l) metres. Ad miral Dewey, with pencil in hand, no ted the thickness of his mantlets and bis casements, and knew what energy was required to penetrate them. Hu also knew exactly the weight of the most powerful projectile of our ships, and by a simple mathematical calcula tion he arrived at the distance at which ho could light without himself receiving any harm. Thus he ascer tained that he could only light at the distance of li,600 or 3,000 metres with absolute impunity. The situation, therefore, was just just this: Wc were vulnerable to all the projectiles of the enemy, and this the enemy well knew, while he got out of reach of our can non aud remained out. of reach all the while." Admiral Montejo adds: "In order to give an idea of our miserable situa tion, 1 may mention that wc had only fourteen torpedoes for the defense of 2,0(111 metres of space and that the ca ble which we obtained in Hong Kong, was only long enough for live torpe does, and, therefore,only five torpedoes could bu placed.'

I saw something was up and I made up my mind to let her out of the buggy before I got into town. "Presently L heard a horseman hit the steel bridge behind us. He clear ed it in about three jumps. I turned and saw that the rider was coatlcss and he carried a bouble-barrelled shot gun on his shoulder, and was wearing a plowline like a marshal's sash. It was beginning to get dark then and 1 paid no attention to thc horseman, and h'- did mot seem to recognize us. Mut just as Ii-' passed the buggy the little hoy .-aid: 'Mamma, i here i ^ papa.

That gentleman knows nothing about me. he simply picked mo up awhile ago in the road ami of fered nie u ride because he saw that 1 was tired and worn out." "Then the husband began to swear ?it the woman who had refused to go home with him. He told her that if she would not go with him peaceably he would carry her forcibly, dragging her by her neck to thc end of thc plow linc at his horse's heels. '"I said he would do nothing ol' tho kind, but I guess I did not say it with much spirit, for 1 was still looking at that shot gun. "When I spoke the fellow turned on me and asked me what in thc hedi I had to do with it, and said he would kill us both. "I told him I did not ha ve any thing Lo do with it, but just didn't approve d' his way ol' escorting a lady home. 'Must then I heard horsemen coming np the road from the opposite direc tion. Looking up I saw two riders .vith shot guns. "I said to myself, 'Oh. Lord, now L'm in it sure enough." "When I turned my attention to die first rider again he was ott like a diot, and just as he turned thc bend )f the road, with thc other two men ifter him they fired at him twice. t; Presently tho two horsemen who urned out to bc the father and broth ;r of the woman returned, and every thing was explained.

IVomlciTiil Sheep Dogs. -.Tho nuj.st celebrated breed of shep herd dogs over known in the West." said Jud Bristol, the old-time sheep in m of Kort Collins, Colo., "were those, bred from a pair ol New Zealand dogs brought tn Colorado in 1875. I had several of 'heir pups on my ranges, and could fill a volume with install?es of their rare intelligence and faithful ness. "I remember one pup in particular. He was only <! months old when he was sent out one day to work on tho range. At night, when the herd was brought up to the corrals, we saw at once that a part of the herd was ?niis ing. They were 1,000 in thc bunch when they went out in the morning, but when we put them through the chute wc found that 200 head were missing. The pup was also missing. Well, all hands turned out for a search. We hunted all that night and all of the next day, and did not find thc lost sheep uutil along towards night. Hut they were all herded in a little draw, about live miles from home, and lhere was the faithful dog stand ing guard. The wolves were very plentiful in those days. and the dog had actually hidden the sheep from the animals in the draw. The poor fellow was nea ly famished, as he had been for ihirtj ix hours without food or water. I'roui I hat day ho becalm? a hero, but was so badly effected hy hunger, exposure and thirst subse quent overfeeding ami petting that. lie died not long afterwards. "This same pup's mother was an especially line animal, ('ne night the herder brought in his Hocks and hur ried to his cabin to cook himself some supper, for he was more than usually ; hungry. Hut he missed the dog, j which usually followed him to thc cabin of au evening to have her sup per. The herder thought it rather ! strange, but made no search for the dog that night, l?ut next morning bc found tin; gate open and the faithful dog standing guard over the Hocks, j This herder in his haste the night be- j fore had forgotten to close the gate and tho dog, more faithful than her master, had remained at her post all night, though suffering from hunger j and thirst. "On another occasion this sauiedog was left to watch a flock of sheep ncr the herder's cahiu while the herder got his supper. After he bad eaten his supper he weut out to where the sheep were and told the dog to putthe sheep in thc corral. This she refused to do. and, ulthough she had had . no supper, she started off over thc prairie as fast as she could go. The herder put the sheep in the corral and went to bed. About midnight he was awakened by the loudbarkiug of a dog down by the corral. He got up, dressed himself, and went down to the corral, and there found the dog with a band of about fifty sheep, which had strayed off during the pre vious day without the herder's knowl edge, but thc poor dog knew it, and also knew that, they ought io bc cor raled, and she did it."-Denver Pmt. Avoid Unkind Speeches. Aren't there some times in your life when everything seems to go wrong, no matter how hard you try to have them to go right? Thoso are the tryiug days when you want to blame all the trouble on the way you got out of bcd in the morning, or on other people, instead of looking the matter squarely in the face, and saying "It's one of my exasperating days, and if I can only keep my temper un til night comes to-morrow will be dif ferent?" Words may be forgiven, but they are not so easily forgotten. Thc un kind speech that is forced from you because you are uot feeling quite well or the pettish, annoying little action that you indulge in simply because you are nervous or worried, doesn't do you ono bit of good, and makes everyone about you uncomfortable, and long after the words have been uttered, or thc deed done, the memory will rankle and bum, and you will wish that you had held on to your tongue and your temper before you got Uto such a scrape.

It would seem ; ?rn, past all doubt, from a pretty story told by Dr. Wood Hutchinson, in thc Con tem porary Review. Dr. Hutchinson was hunting one day with another ranchman on thc table lands of the Platte river, when they caught sight of a small group of antelope grazing upon the slope of a hill about two miles away. Making a long detour to get down the wind, the men hobbled their horses and crawled, it seemed about three miles, mostly on their stomachs and elbows, until they found them selves, hot and sandy, at the back of the ridge on which the antelope had been seen. Up this ridge they crawled, their hearts in their mouths, while the ani mals must have grazed up the slope to meet them, for the men suddenly looked up and saw a superb prong autlcrcd bead silhouetted against the sky di ne. Instead of taking a steady aim as they lay, Dr. Hutchinson and his companion went crazy at once, leaped to their feet and blazed away wildly at six frightened antelope who went dashing down tho steep slope like so many jack rabbits. Of course they missed everything, and diopping their empty guns they drew their six-shooters and began pup ping at thc antelope as they dashed up the opposite slope of the narrow valley. Suddenly they noticed the biggest buck drop behind the others, and l\<r a moment they thought he was wound ed. To their astonishment however, ' he turned again, aud they Kaw what ! he was doing. He was defying them, I to distract their attention until the j does and fawns could make good their ! escape. The little herd soon reached the top of thc ridge, plunged over and were lost to view; but their plucky champion stood proud'y for several seconds on thc summit, stamping his feet angrily at the ranchmen, until a backward glance assured him that his family were out of range behind thc hill, when with a last, toss of his head he whirled and was after them like a Hash. "For some reason or other," says Dr. Hutchinson, "we didn't think of loadiug our rifles for another long range shot, bul) took off our hats to him as he wcut over the ridge, and had the decency to be glad we had missed him." - Cracksmen's tools, found on the scenes of recent Paris burglaries, in dicate thc work of slick American crooks. Love is tt?e corner-stone cf a W o m a n ' s life. She builds all her hopes upon and arouhd those ?ender affections which she cher ishes toward the ones who are dear to her, and which she locks to receive from them in return. This is woman's nature; it is the God given instinct that makes her a foul and tender sweetheart ; a comforting, helpful wife ; an ever-loving, solicitous, [ care-taking mother. When a woman feels that the responsi bilities and duties of wifehood and moth erhood llave become irksome to her-a burden and trouble rather than a source of uplifting and inspiration-it shows that there is some deficiency in her physical make-up; some abnormal and unhealthy condition of the delicate and important special structure of womanliood.
