TWO SPORTSMEN'S
LUCK.
One Get Deer Without Trying
and. One
' Can't Even See Them.
He had just returned from a deer
shooting' trip and vias telling about a
handsome buck which he had shot, says
the New York. Tribune. He was not
"poBinjf" as a great deer-hunter, for, as
he said: "It's all lock with me. I first
went after deer three years tlgo. On
the morning after I reached the camp
in the mountains we drew lots for our
rainways. I got only a fairly decent
one It was very cold that morning',
and I stood back to a tree trying to
keep warm by smoking and shrinking
up in my big mackintosh. For an hour
I had heard the dogs barking up on the
hill- They did not seem to get much
nearer until suddenly they were right
upon me. From the woods down to the
water there was a clearing for a dis
tance of one thousand yards. In an in
stant my fine fellow struck the clear
ing. He was . making for the water,
running magnificently, with ' his head
up and his horns tossing. ' I felt just
one fierce thrill and then I tried for
him. ' I had him as soon as he reached
the water. The uext year I was in a
boat when I saw my buck. The hounds
had driven him to the water, and be
was swimming straight down-stream.
I started to row after him, and then
seeing that it was useless to try to get
nearer with my heavy boat, I" tried for
him at long range. He turned when I
hit him and swam toward the bank. . 1
fired again and waited for him. He was
a tremendous, fellow, lie came out
with his two feet on the bank, and as
he lifted his quarters heavily I got him.
This year I got a good runway, and on
the second day saw my buck chased in to
the water. ' It was a little long range,
but I had a fine chance and secured him
with three shots. So you see luck
counts for something-
Another man in the party agreed
with the speaker perfectly. "I have
gone out for deer," he said, "every fall
for seven years. I suppose I have spent
several thousand dollars on my deer-
hunting.' And how many deer do you
think I have shot? Not one. We have
a fine camp. Everyone else in our
party always gets a deer. The men
give me the best runways and the best
hounds, and yet I have never shot a
deer. Do you think that is bad luck?
Well, I'll tell you something else. In all
those seven years spent in camp, de
spite all the favors shown me, I have
never had the good fortune even to see
a deer on my runways. And if after
the first story and mine you will not
agree with me that 1 am an unlucky
deer-hunter, I'll give up." Everyone
agreed with him, and yet he says he' is
eointr out a train next fall for the deer
which he never sees.
PIGEONS FOR NAVAL USE.
They Will Be Made Part of the Service I
the United States.
The United States practice ship Con
stellation, which recently sailed on the
cadets summer voyage, had aboard a
number of homing pigeons, to be used
as means of communication between
the ship and points ashore. The birds
will be liberated at intervals and are
expected to bring official messages from
the practice vessel to the naval acade
my, where a loft or cote has recently
been established, says . the Baltimore
Sun.
If the experiment should prove suc
cessful the government would prob
ably find it profitable to the' navy to
encourage the homing pigeon service
with the""small appropriation needed to
carry out the plans of the projectors of
the enterprise. At present the facilities
for training birds at the naval academy
are limited, no government appropria
tion being available.
At Fortress Monroe, the first stopping
place of the ship, it is possible several
trained birds from Baltimore. Phila
delphia and New York will be taken
aboard and dispatched with..informa
tion from the cruising grounds. The
headquarters at Washington will also
be posted of the whereabouts of the
vessel through winged messengers from
that city.
A lot of the birds to accompany the
ship willi.no doubt be sufficiently
trained toward the close of the voyage
to be useful in conveying messages
ashore.
The practicability of the homing
pigeon service has been satisfactorily
tested by communications , with the
ships of war -anchored off Annapolis
and from vessels plying between Balti
more, Annapolis and other points. . If
these experiments should be successful
they will demonstrate the possibility of
a vessel cruising along the coast at a
distance of over one hundred miles,
where no other means of communica
tion would be possible, to be kept in
constant intercourse with the shore.
This promp service, -it is claimed,
would be a crreat advantage to the gov-
! erament. Ths experiments will be con
; tinned during the entire cruise of the
j ship and will be watched with unusual
ONE
OF THE MYSTERIES.
Something About Sound That Cannot Bs
Understood.
"I am an old man," he said slowly to
a Memphis Appeal-Avalanche reporter,
"and I've lived a long time longer than
most men who have lived as long as I
have, for there's mighty little - in this
world that I oughtn't to know that I
don't knows but there is one thing I
don't know,' and I've been trying to
learn it for fifty years, more or less."
"What's that?" interrupted Gamaliel,
who is but a bee inner. .

QUEER WITCH STORIES.
Some People Who Still Believe In TYitch-
- -.craft.
What funny stories come out of Berks
county. Pa., about witches and witch
doctors, - and . those who enjoy them
most are the educated Berks county
people, who laugh at the superstitious
fears of foolish and ignorant neighbors. (
Not long ago the members of a family
in one of the country districts were all
taken sick, and the first tiling the head
of the family did was to consult a witch
doctor, who told him the sick people
were bewitched. He was told to drive
a nail in the sill of his barn door," witb-
a single blow of the hammer, three
mornings in succession. He did this.
but it i not staled that the sick people
got well. The man insists, however,
that the woman who bewitched his fam
ily was killed by the nails he drove into
the sill, and as un old woman in the
neighborhood happened to give up the
ghost his superstitious neighbors agree
with him that lie has killed a witch. In
another township a young girl who was
in love with a country youth went to a
witch doctor for a love-powder to give
the young man that would compel him
to reciproc ate her affection. . She got
the powder, but in giving it secretly to
the young follow she incautiously made
known her desire that he should marry
her, whereupon he seized hu. hat and
fled out into the wide, vide world, and
he hasn't been heard from since. -

To Monut a- Coach. .
'"I'hi.iv tK KiiiVLi a rlifrVrenco " said a I
man on the piazza at a Clare raoat tea a
few days ago. in the way a woman
mounts or descends from- a coach or
drag. There is a certain .'.kill about it
which comes only from considerable
practice. A woman in America scarce
ly gets enough experience to acquire
this, but many American 'women who
have coached a great deal in Europe
show this schooling at once. She should
use only one hand to touch the coach
and the other should rest on the shoul
der of the groom or the gentleman who
is assisting her. Above all, she should
show and know no fear, a condition of
confidence .that is rarely acquired ex
;ept after many mounts."
WALLED LAKE OF IOWA.
Nearly Three Thousand Acres of Water
Inclosed by a Natural Boundary.
The vast region which lies to the west
of the Mississippi river is well provided
with wonders in the shape of natural
and artificial curiosities. Devil's tower,
Spirit lake, Christ's table, the Red Snow
mountain, the geysers of the Yellow
stone park, besides many minor oddi
ties, beinsr among- the number, but none
nas a more widespread lame loan tne 1
wonderful "walled lake" in Wright
county, Iowa. ' The ; lake occupies a
ground surface of two thousand eight -hundred
acres,' and its entire surface is
from four to ten feet higher than any
point of land in the immediate vicinity,
the waters being kept in bounds by an
immense natural or artificial stone wall
composed of bowlders estimated -to
weigh from one hundred pounds up to
three tons each. . In some places, where
two or three of the larger stones lie
close together, the interstices are
chinked with smaller bowlders so
evenly and in such a workmanlike
manner as to preclude all idea of its be
ing the work of other than intelligent
beings. Originally the wall was from
ten to fifteen feet in height, very broad
at the bottom and taperang up to an av
erage of four feet at the top. Some
'scientists argue that the wall is the re
sult of "consecutive freezing of the wa
ters of the lake that the action of the
ice cn the sides of ,the embankment
forced the stones into their present po
sition. The Philadelphia Press says
that those who take this view of the
matter have failed to notice that, al
though there is plenty of stone in
Vright county, there is absolutely none
within a radius of ten miles of the lake
Those who believe the work to have
been done by prehistoric man claim that
at one time the vicinity of the Jake wa
strewn with bowlders (as is most oi
northern Iowa, having been one of the
regions that was covered with the de
bris of the glacial age), but that they
were all gathered up by the busy beings
of long ago and fashioned into the wall
which causes so much amazement ir.
the Hawkeye of to-day.
OLD LONDON CHURCHES.
The Pestilential Airs with Which They
Are Filled.
- The church of St. Mary Woolnotli.
which stands out conspicuously at the
King William street corner of Lombard
street, London, says the News of that
city, was closed ten months ago, and it
is clear from the statement of the rector
that the step was not premature- It
has been his unhappy lot to be often
startled in the course of his. services by
a loud, yet muffled sound, evidently is
suing from the vaults under the church.
As these vaults are now "hermetically
sealed" the phenomenon may well havu
excited the imaginations of timid mem
bers of the congregation. Mr. Brooke,
however, recognized the noises only too
welL They were caused by the falling
of leaden coffins, sometimes from a
height of ten or twelve feet, in conse
quence of the moldering away of the
coffins of oak and elm on which they
had been piled. It would be well if
the evils of this relic of our barbarous
system ' of intramural interment had
ended here. Unfortunately the process
of "hermetically sealinir," according'to
Mr. Brooke's evidence before ' the con
sistory court . of St. Paul's cathedral,,
haa- beenv anything but "hermetical."
Mr. Brooke declares that for years near
ly every official had died from the ef
fects, direct or indirect, of the unendur
able smell. V -. -
Arthur Btratham, the counsel repre
senting the parish, stated that one
thousand six hundred and eighty -onv
adults and ' four hundred and twenty
two children had been deposited in this
horrible receptable between 17C0 and
lSJa.. In the latter year, according to
Mr. Stratham, the vault was closed for
burials; but these burials in St. Mary
Woolnoth, if burials they can be called
were -continued for at least twelve
years after the latter date..
