Tho story which L am about to re late was told mo beside tho camp Are on tho banks of tho Big Squatook, In MOtitheastorn Quobcc) Tho wild regions about tho Squatook lakes aro rich in fish and game. A party of four, devotees of gnn and rod ind paddle, we wont ono July to this land of tho Big Squatook; and round tho camp flro ono chilly evening whon a sudden north wind had put an ab rupt end to our fishing, Stranlon, be ing In a certain sonso tho leader of our party, was callod upon for a story of adventure. Wo were all experienced woodsmen, with a largo stock of stories at our com mand; but Stranlon's exporionco was tho wildest, and to him had fallen the jtrnngestand most thrilling adventures. Whon Stranlon was not with us a good yarn might bo elicited from tho lips of V. B. or Sam or oven myself; but In Stranlon's presence wo paled our "In effectual fires." When wo had heaped our camp llrp to thrlco its accustomed height and had huddled ourselves com fartably In our blankots undor tho Ico of tho tent, wo turned our attention to Stranlon, and Stranlon began : "Boys, tho air bites shrewdly. It Is a nipping and eager air. In fact, It puts mo forcibly In mind of ono of my best adventures, whloh bofoll mo that whiter when I wns trapping on tho Llfc tlo Son'wost MlrnmenL" "Qh, comol Tell us a good Btiinmer story, old man," Interrupted W. B. "I'm half frozen as it Is tonight. Toll us about soino placo down In tho trop ics, where thoy havo to cool their por rlflgo with boiling water." "Nay," replied Stranlon, "my thoughts aro wintry and oven so must my story bo." Ho tracod in tho air a fow meditative circles with his plpo (which ho rarely smoked, using it rathor for oratorical ofTcotyand thon resumed: "That was a hard winter of mlno on tho Llttlo Sou' west I enjoyed It at tho time, and It did mo good; but, looking back upon It now, I wonder what in duced mo to undertake it. I got tho exporionco and I indulged my hobby to tho full, but by spring I folt Hko a bar barian. "I had Nool with mo that winter a rood hunter and true, but about us comnaulonablo as a mud turtle. Our traps wore set In two great clroulta, ono on tho south side of tho stream, tho other pit tho north. Tho range to tho north was In my charge, and a very big olmrgo It was. Whon I had any sort of luck, It used to take mo a day and a half to mako tho round, for I had sovontoon traps to tend, spread out over u rango of about twenty miles. Hut whon tho traps wore not woll flllod, I used to do It without slooplng away from tho camp. "It's not muoh Hko play, I can tell you, tramping all day on suowshoos through t Iioao woods, carrying an ax, a fowling ploco, food, ammunition and Bomotlujos a pack of furs. Whonover I had to sleep out I would dig a big ob long liolo in tho snow, build a roaring (Ire at ouo end ot the hole, bury myself lu honilook boughs at tho other end, raid snooze Hko n dormouso till morn ing, I rolled implicitly on tho flro to keep off any beam or Indian dovils (panthers) that might bo fooling Inquisi tive as to whothor I would bo good eat ing. "Tho snow must havo boon fully six foot deep that year. Ono morning, near tho last of February, I had set out on my round, and had made some thrvo miles from our shanty when I caught sight of a covey ot partridges lu tho dlstunoe, and turned out of my way to get a shot at them. It had oc curred to mo that porehauoo a brace of thorn might mako savory morsels for my suppor. After a considerable do tour I bagged my birds and recovered my trail near tho last trap I had vis ited. My tracks, as I had left thorn, had been solitary enough, but now I found thoy wore accompanied by tho footprint)) of a largo Indian devil. "I didn't really oxpoot to got a shot at tho beast, but I loaded both bar rein with ball cartridge As I wont ou, however, It began to strike mo oj straugo Unit thn brute should happen to bo going so far In my direction. Step for step his footprints clung to mlno. Whon I reached tho place -where I had branched off In scorch of the partridges I fouud that the panther had branched oft with mo. Bo pollto conformity of his ways to mlno could havo but ono slgnlDcanco. I was be ing tracked! "Tho Idea, when It first struck mo, struck mo with too much force to be agreeable. It was a cry unusual pro ceeding on tho part of an Indian devil, llsplaylng a most Imperfect conception of tho fitness of things. That I should hunt hhn was proper and customary; but that ho should think of hunting me, presumptuous and most unpleasant. I resolved that he should bo mado to re pent It before night "Tho traps were unusually success ful that trip, and at last I had to stop and make a cache of my spoils. This unusual delay seemed to mislead my wily pursuer, who suddenly caino out of a thicket while I was hidden behind a tree trunk. As he crept stealthily along on my tracks, not fifty yards awny, I was disgusted at his sleuth hound peralstencoand crafty malignity. I raised my gun to my shoulder, and In another moment would havo rid myself of his undeslrcd attractions, but tho animal must havo caught a gleam from tho shining barrel, for he turned like a flush and buried himself in tho nearest thicket. "It was evident that ho did not wish tho matter forced to an Immediate is sue As a consequence, 1 decided that It ought to bo settled at once. I ran toward tho thicket, but at tho same time tho panther stolo out on tho other tldo and disappeared In the woods. "Upon this I concluded that he had becomo scared and given up his unhal lowed purpose. For some hours I dis missed him from my mind and tended my traps without further apprehen sion, but about tho middlo of the after noon or a Httlo later, when I had reached tho farthest point of my cir cuit, I onco more became Impressed with a sonso that I was being followed. "Tho Impression grow so strong that It weighed upon me, aud I determined to bring It to a test Taking some luncheon from my pocket I sat down be hind a trco to nlbblo and wait I sup pose I must havo sat there ten minutes, hearing nothing, seeing nothing, so that I was about to glvo It up and con tinue my tramp, when along camo tho pantherl My gun was leveled Instant ly, but at tho name Instant tho brute had disappeared. Ills eyes were sharper than mine. 'Ah I' said I to myself, 'I will havo to keep n big flro going to night or this fellow will pay mo a call when I am snoozing.' "About sundown I met with an an lucky accident, which dampened both my spirits and my powder. In crossing a swift brook at a placo where tho Ico was hardly thick enough to hold up Its covering of snow, I broko through and wns soakod. After fishing myself out with some difficulty I found my gun was full of water, which had frozen as It entered. Hero was a pretty fix. Tho weapon was for tho present ut terly usoloss. I feared that most of my cartridges were In Hko condition, Tho prospect for tho night, when tho Indian dovil should arrlvo upon tho sccno, was not a cheerful ono. I pushed on miserably for anothor mile or so, and then prepared to camp. "First of nil I built such a flro as I thought would impress upon tho In dian dovil a duo sonco of my impor tance and my mysterious powers. At a safo distance from tho ilro I spread out my cartridges to dry, In tho fervent hopo that the water hud not penetrated far onough to )endor them usoIom, My gun I put where It would thaw as quickly as possible. "Then I cut onough firewood to blnzo all night. With my snowshoos 1 dug n deep hollow at ono side of tho lire. The lira soon melted tho snow bo n oath It, and brought it down to the level w hereon I was to placo my couch. I limy say that tho ground I had se lected was a gentlo slope, aud tho lire was bolow my bed, so that tho molting snow could run off freely. Over my head I lixed a good, Hrm 'lean-to' of spruco saplings, thickly thatched with boughs. Tints I scoured niybolf In such a way that tho Indian devil could como at mo only from tho sldo on which tho flro was burning. Such approach, I con gratulated myself, would bo llttlo to Ills catshlp's taste. "By tho tlmo my shelter was coin pleted it was fully night in tho woods. My Ilro mado a ruddy olrelo about tho oamp, and presently I discerned tho panther, gliding In and out among tho tree trunks on tho outer edges of tho circles. Ho stared at mo with his. round, green eyes, and I returned tho gazo with cold Indlitorcneo. I wasbuty putting my gnn In order, I would not encourago hhn lest ho might grow too familiar before I was ready for his re ception. "Betwoen my gleaming walls of snow I had worked up a temperature that was fairly tropical. Away up over head, among tho (duo tops, a few largo stars glimmered lonesomely. How far away seemed tho world of my friends on whom these sama stars wore looking down I I wonder how those at homo would feel It thoy could sec me there by tho solitary camp lire, Matched re lentlessly by that prowling and vindic tive beast. "Presently, finding that I made no attack upon hint, tho brute slipped nolAolossly to within a few dozen paces of tho fire. There ho crouohud down In tho snow and glared upon mo. I hurled a flaming brand at hhn, and ho sprang backward, snarling, Into tho gloom. But tho brand spluttered In the snow and wont out, whereupon tho brute returned to his post Then I throw another at him, but hu regarded It this thuo with contempt, merely drawing aside to give It room. When it had gono black out ho approached, pawed It over, and sniffed In supreiuest con. tempt Thon he came much nearer, so that I thought ho was about to spring on me. I moved directly to tho other side of tho flro. "By this tlmo tho gun wa3 ready for action, butnot so the cartridges. They were lying farther from tho ilro nnd dangerously nearer my unwelcomo visi tor. I perceived that I must make a diversion at onco. "Selecting a resinous stick, into which tho flro hod oaten deeply, so that it hold a moss of glowing coals, I launched it suddenly with such careful aim that It struck right betwoen the brute's forelegs. As it scorched there, ho caught and bit at it angrily, drop ped It with a screaming snarl and shrank farther away. When ho crouched down, biting tho snow, I fol lowed my advantage by rushing upon him with a blazing rod' of bircli bark. Ho did not await iny onsot, but bound ed off nmong tho trees, where I could hear hhn grumbling in tlx darkness over his smarting mouth. I loft tho bark blazing In tho snow whllo I went back to bco my precious cartridges. "Before long tho panther appeared at tho limits of tho lighted circle, but seemed not quite so confident as before. Nevertheless, It was clear that ho had set his heart on making a meal of me, and was not to be bin (Ted out of his de sign by a fow firebrands. "I discovered that all my ball car tridges were spoiled ; but thero were a fow loaded with shot which tho water had not penetrated. From these I withdrew tho shot and substituted ball and slugs. Thon, slipping a ball car tridge into ono barrel, slugs into tho otlior, and three or four extra car tridges into a handy pocket, I waited for my opponent to recover ills confi dence. As ho seemed content to wait awhllo, I set about broiling my par tridges, for I was becoming clamorously hungry. "So also was tho panther, as it seemed. When tho odor of these par tridges stolo seductlvoly to hfa nostrils he onco more approached my flro, and this tlmo with an air of stern determina tion quite different from l)Is former easy Insolence "Tho crisis had como. I seized my gun and knelt down behind tho fire. I nrranged a burning log In such a man ner that I could grasp and wield it with both hands in an onergenoy. Just as tho animal drew himself to gether for a spring I fired ono barrel that containing tho ball and shattered his lower jaw. Mad with pain and fury, ho sprang. Tho contents of my second barrel, a heavy chargo of slugs, met hhn full in tho breast, and ho fell In a heap at my feet "As he lay thero, struggling and snarling nnd tearing up the snow, I slipped hi anothor cartrldgo and the noxc moment a bullot in his brain put an end to his miseries. "After this performance I ato my partridges with a very grateful heart and slept the sleep of the just and vic torious. Tho skin of that audacious Indian devil now lies In my study, whore Sam is constantly desecrating it with his Irreverent shoes." A few moments after Stranlon had 11 nisi led his story tho rani) on the Big Squatook was wrapped in slumber, and tho loons out In tho bosom of tho moonlit lako were laughing to ono anothor unheeded.

I had seen tho old man on tho street and around the railroad depot, and he was such a queer looking old darky, and his wool was so snowy white, and his face so full of wrinkles, that I asked about hhn. That's Undo Bill, as wo call him," replied tho colonel. "Queer old man. Years nnd years ago, directly after tho war, his son Henry left hero and has never been heard of since. He's prob ably dead. His wife and all tho other children aro dead, and tho old man lives among somo kind hearted colored people down tho street Ho goes to tho depot several times a day, rain or shine, to seo tho trains como in. Ho has faith that his boy will return some day, and ho wants to bo on hand to greet him." That evening I found Undo Billy on tho depot platform, alert and anxious for tho arrival of tho train. "When I asked him if ho expected anybody he replied : '"Deed I does, sah. Izo dun spectln my boy Henry will come In on dem kivcred kyars, fur shore." "What makes you expect 1dm?

I missed him for a few minutes whllo talking with a friend, but as I walked down to tho end of the platform I found him sitting with his back to the build ing and his old whito head resting on ills breast "Well, undo, your boy didn't como this evening," I said as I stopped before- him. Ho mado no answer. "But ho may como tomorrow. Hello 1 Undo Billy gono to sleep?" I put my hand on his head, but ho did not move. I looked more closely, and I found that he was dead. Ho had turned away from the train and sat down there and died.

' " MEAT FOR HIGHBINDERS Thry Hnllevo Tlmt T'leuli uf I'eroclou AiiIuihIh Mukos Them Fearless. At the corner of Sansome and Clay sheets half a dozen Chinamen, were bidding for a dead wildcat in the-hands of a quail peddler. The beast was shot In Marin county tho day before, and tho eagerness of tho- Chinese, to gether with tho spirited bidding, was. a sourco of much amusement to tho crowd that collected. Representatives of tho dreaded Cheo Kung Tong society were thero, and so also was a member of tho Ping Ong Tong, nnd both sides wore determined to secure tho cat. Two dollars and a half were- first oiTored, and from this tho blds.raised to five dollars. Tho old man who had t&o eat merely smiled. A truco was declared while tho body of tho follno waa examined. Many grunts of approval omanated from tho warriors wlipn It was found that tho wildcat was fat "Fi dolla hap," said ono ot tl)o Chi nese. "Six dolla hap," promptly came from a member of the Pings Tho othor sldo hold a conference and raised tho amount anothor dollar. At tho close of tho contest tho repre sentative of tho Ping Ongs inarched proudly away with tho bobtailed cat, after having deposited fifteen dollars for It "That's nothing," sidd tho quail ped dler. "I sometimes get more than that for 'cm. They eat 'em so's to get L bravo. ' That night about twenty members of tho Ping Ong Tong society regaled thetiiM)lves on wildcat and consequent ly Increased their bravery. Tho custom of eating tigers, lions and other animals of fierce, nature by tho Chluesu dates from tho day of. Confucius. Moy Sing, ouo of tho most Intelligent Chinamon iu Snn Francisco, thus gave his opinion on tho subject: "A Chtnnmun behoves that if he eats a portion of a lion or tiger tho bravery and courage of tho animal will enter Into his system nnd ho will liecomo dar ing. In China tho smallest pleco ot a tiger Is valuable for this reason. I havo eaten lion meat, nnd tho effect is to make n man very bravo. Here in Cali fornia wo eat wildcats and foxes, and think whenever wo eat of the flesh of either kind wo becomo bravo or cun ning Hko thoM) animals. I think tho man who sold tho wildcat to thaso Chi namen mado them bellovo that It was a young Hon or thoy would uot have paid so muoh for it, because tho tlesh of a wildcat is not of near as much value as that of a lion."
