A. party of four, who had been rov ing for many long years in the West, all strangers to each other, were one day aecidentnlly thrown together, when a strange und sanguinary scene ensued. The men presented a striking con trast in feature. I The youngest was delicately made, with long hair and light blic eyes. His exposure had given him a rich browu complexion. lie was of medium stature, and | made for strength nnd activity. There was a dark void over his features, which told that with him the light of hope had gone out. He was traveling on a mule, with his rifle in his gnu lcatli3r at the bow of his saddle, when he overtook a man on foot, with a gun on his shoulder and pistols in his belt, who was over six feet in bight, and had a deep, wide scar on his righL cheek., As day was drawing to a close they proposed to camp, and brougbtup at the head fork of the Pawnee, i Shojpjily after they had camped, a man was seen reeonnoitering them ? with a rille in his hand, nnd having satisfied himself that the sign was friendly, he came moodily into camp, and after looking sternly at the two men, was asked by Scar Cheek to "come to the ground." He was a stout muscular man, much older than the other two, with a deep, habitual scowl, long black, matted huirj and very unprepossessing features. Some common-place remarks were made, but no questions wore asked by either party. It was near t vilighl when the young j man, who had gathered some buffalo eliips to make a lire to cook with, sud deitly poreeiv?d a. man approaching llieiu on a mule. He en me steadily and fearlessly on to the, camp, und casting a look nt the three, said : "Took ye lor Indians." Then, glancing nt the deer skin dress of the trio, the observec, "old leathers, some time out, eh ?" The man was about fifty years old, and bis gray hairs contrasted strange ly with his dark, bronzed features up on which care and misfortune was strongly stamped. He was only half clad in the miser able skins he wore, and as be dis mounted, Scar Cheek asked him, "Where from?" "From the Knw, (Kansas)," he re plied, throwing down a bundle of otter skins. After unsaddling, and staking out his mule; he brought himself to the ground, and inking his rifle looked at the priming, and shaking the powder in the pah, he added a few more grains to it, then placing a piece of thin, dry skin over it to beep it from the damp, he shut the pan. The group watched the old I rapper, who seemed not to notice them, while Scar CliOek became interested nnd showed a certain uneasiness. He looked toward his own rille, and once or twice loosened the pistols in his belt, as if they incommoded him. The young man and the stout man. with tlip scowl, exchanged glances, but no word passed. So far, no questions had been asked as to who the other was, what little conversation passed was very laconic, and not a smile wreathed the lips of any otic of them. The little supper was eaten in sil ence, each man seeming to be wrap pod in his own thoughts. It was agreed that the watch should be divided equally among tho four, each man standing two hours on guard?the old trapper taking the first watch, the young nun next, nnd Scar Cheek and he with the scowl following. It was a bright moonlight night; and over that barren, wild waste of prairie, not a sound was heard, as the three lay bleeping in their blankets. The old trupper paced up nnd down, ran his eyes around the wild waste j hclore him, and ihcu would stop nnd mutter to himself: "It cannot he," he said, half aloud; "hut the time und that scar may have disguised him. 'that boy loo?it's strange, I feel di awn towards him; then that villian with the,scowl f*' And the muscles of the old trapper's face worked convulsively, which, the moonbeams falling upon, disclosed traces of bygone refinement. The I nipper noiselessly approached the sleeping men, and kneelingdown, (razed intently upon the features of each, and scanned them deeply. Walking off, he muttered to him self Again, saying : "It shall be!" Ami then.judging by the stars, that his watch was over, he approached the young man and awoke him, pressing his finger upon his lip to coin maud silence at the lime and motioned him to follow.~> They walked off sonic distance when the trapper, taking the young man by the shoulder, turned his face to the moonlight, and, after gazing at it wistfull y, whispered in bis e:ir? "Are you Perry Ward ?" The young man started wildly, but the trapper prevented him, by saying? "Enough, enough." He then told him thai be was Iiis uncle, and that man with the scar was the murderer of Ii s faf her; and that he with the seowl had convicted him (the trapper) of forgery by his false oath. The blood deserted the lips of the young hum, and his eyes glared and di!nled e'most from their sockets. lie squeezed bis uncle's bund, ami then with a meaning look at bis rifle, moved toward.-* thoeamp. "No, no;" said the trapper; "not in cold blood; give them :i chance." They cautiously returned to camp and found both men in a deep sloe p. The nephew und uncle stood over them. Scar C heek was breathing hard, when be suddenly cried out: "I did not murder Perry Ward ?" "Liar," said the trapper, in a voice of thunder, and the two men started and bounded to their feet. "Pedsliins about said they, in a voice. "No, worse than redskins," said the trapper, "Perry Ward is about!" and seizing his knife plunged it into Scai Check's heart. "Then take that," said he of the scowl, and raising bis rifle, the trap per fell a corpse. With n bound and a wild cry, the you g man jumped at the murderer of his uncle, und with his knife gave him several fatal cuts. The struggle was u fearful one, how I ever, and the young man bad also re ceived several bad cubs, when his adversary fell from the loss of blood and soon expired. Thus ended this strange meeting, and thus were father ami uncle re venged. A Witnicss who Kn'KW?Witness es in trials are not s<? green sometimes a.s they let on they are. Ala recent trial in Nevada, Bishoff, of the Hum boldt brewery, was called as a wit ness. Mr. Bisl: oil is one of the solid men of Elko, where he bus been in business since the town was started in the winter of 1858, Upon being sworn, Counselor Hand, one of the attorneys in the case, who, by the way, is also an old resident of Elko, said : "Mr. Bisljoff, where do you reside?" "Where J. reside? What for you ask me such foolish things? You drink at my plaoo more as a hundred times." "That lias nothing to do with tho caso on trial, Mr, Bishoff, state to .the jury where you reside." "Ho bhurfy 1 dc shurry ! Oh, py jimmy! of cry gentleman on dis shurry has a string of marks on mine cellar door just like a rail lencc." His hon or here interceded in the counselor's behalf, und in a calm, dignified man ner requested the witness to state where he resided. 'Oh, excuse mc, bu lge; you drinks at my place so ninny times nnd pays me, (no lings, I.; dinks you know old irishoffyntjkocps. the brewery." !iT c iu How He Wanted His Picture Taken. Yesterday a young man with, ft Wojr?. on his nose dropped iu nt tho pherr man photograph gallory, ?nd remark ed that ho ' wanted some. ' pictures taken. 9- ' ' ' " Wil 1 yoti ' have it sthn liiig or a bust," queried the artist. "Ibist," exclaimed tlu fellow, as he, picked up his hut. ''Bust! Mister, do I look like ttman who would come into a picture gallery on a bust." They explained it to hilft, nnd finally pergnuded him ; to sit long enough for n negative. The picture was a good one and his nose s.tood out like a black cat in a bay window. The follow looked at it and as he handed iL back said, ??.Shoot, again old parti, iijicl sec if you can't make that warL look like a piece of chewing gum ?" They told; him it couldn't be done. ^Well, sec here now, pard," he pleaded, "my name's TrulHcs, and I'm engaged to a girl back in Injiana; and she wauls my picture. She don't know I've -got this wart; it's giowed .<incc 1 left there; and if you could just rub it put of the picture and make it look like something she's familiar with?a slico of bacon, for instance? I'd feel better." They fixed it up fur him, and when be went out he chuckled, "That'll Hitch her; she just natural ly think I'm floating round in .-olid comforts likte bacon and string bonus uudsieb" I The otherVdny a Detroiter who has a good record of army service took down his revolver to shoot a cat which bus been hanging around the In use. After looking at him while he fired six shots I lie cat walked away. While ho was loading up for more destruc tion the shooter's small boy inquired: "Father, did you kill any one while you were in the army V "I suppose so, my sott." After a long pause the boy continued : "Then you must have got near enough to hit'cm with an ax, didn't you." It was then discovered to be about school lime. A Pussnic father wants to know "what will keep a respectable, but poof young - m?h from hanging around the front of the bouse V Tell him the girl is sitting on the hack fence. Dame .Fashion declares that the style of wearing jewelry on the streets is obsolete. Kur-rings and lockctsarc the last to go, nnd in their place a dis play of costly bultons is being made. There nie editors in Philadelphia who will let a boy climb five pairs of stairs with a peck of apples and cooly reply, ' No, sonny?tipples arc not healthy."
