any person might break it with a blow from an ordinary cane.His strength lies in bis great breast and his feet.He has one great claw, and a very small one, and with a terrible precision he can bring down the large claw with a cruel force that will tear open anything not made of sheet-irou.Savage birds at best, they are den- gerously so during breeding time.The twenty-two birds brought to our California ranch trusted to their instinct and laid their eggs during the California winter, which vorresponded 10 their sutnmer south of the Equator.It being the rainy season, their nests were filled with water and the eggs were chilled ; so the first season of their American sojourn wa< à failure.The ostrich makeo its uest by rolling in the sand and scooping out a bole some six feet in diameter, and, excepting an incubator-house, the California ranch requires no buildings for the use of the birds, though the land is divided off into pens fenved in.each about an acre in extent, for the use of the breeding hirde, overy pair occupying oue such inclosure.\u2018The ostriches live upon alfalfa and corn.Alfalfa is & grass oultivated al aver the ranch lt resembles oar clover, and grows to a crop sume six wp 8 yar [Wt Nichols for Jone The School Committee Man.The Hillside school had begun ite fall term.There was a new leacher\u2014 a young lady, with a bright face and a pleasant voice.Now children,\u201d said the teacher one day, *\u2018I think the echool committee man may he here to-morrow or the next dav.\u201d The children ail promised to beliave well.They did pot like 10 hear that he was coming.He was very tall, very grave and very strict; and they were all afraid of him.The very next day this tall, stern gentleman said to himself, *I will visit the Hillside school to-day.\u201d He went to the door; the wind was sharp and chilly, so he torned back and eaid :\u2014 \u2018Wile, cao you tell me where my overcoat is?\u2019 \u201cYes, it hangs in the baron chamber; it has been there all summer,\u201d she replied.Dr.Bray put on his coat and walked away to the school-house.The teacher placed a chair for bim on the platform.Just as he had asked the firet arithmetic class a puzzling question, one of the girls at the desk gave a little scream.All the others nestled and fidgeted, looking as if the v would like to scream too.The visitor turned and looked at them very sternly indeed.The teacher touched her bell, and shook her head at them.\u2018Please, teacher,\u201d squeaked one litile voice, \u201c\u2018it was a mousa!\u201d \u201cI hope we may bave order in the school-rcom now,\u201d said Dr, Bray, in his deeffest tones.And then he gave out his question once more.Pop! another mouse ! This one ran over to the boy's side, and two or three of the boys saw where it came from.They nudged each other, and clapped their hands over their mouths to keep from laughing aloud.The teacher touched her bell again, aod called: \u2018Silence !\u201d She felt very much disturbed that ber boys and girls should act so.Bul as she glanced towards the visitor to see how he Look it, she was obliged to smile herself, for a third mouse jumped out of the committee man\u2019s pocket and scampered away.The boys laughed aloud now, and the girls were all in confusion.Dr.Bray arose from his chair, prepared to say somelhing very severe indeed.To do this properly he put his hands in his pockets, and out jumped the last poor, frightened, little mouse.The doctor's overcoal had bung so long in the barn chawber that 8 mother mouse har made Ler snug nest in one of the pockets; and now her little ones had all come to school with the visitor! The visitor had a broad smile ou his face now.\u2018\u2018I really must beg pardon,\u201d he said, *\u2018for bringing u pocket-full of mice to school I\u201d The teacher gave a ten minutes\u2019 recess, and it was & very merry one.Then the scholars came to order and behaved very well indeed; but they did pot feel hall as much afraid of Dr.Bray after that visit.-[Our Little

call bacteris, the smallest form of vegetable life.So small are they that it) would take, in some cases, 88 many as fifteen thousand of them arranged ina row to extend an och.They have different forms, some being round, some oval, some rod-shaped, aod others much the shape of a corkscrew, or spiral.In all cases they are s0 small that one needs a powerful microscope to study them, und io no case can we perceive them singly with the naked eye.When countless millions of them sre grouped together in a mass, or colony, we cao see them about as we are able to see at a great distance an approaching army, of which we are totally unable to distinguish 8 single soldier.We have said that these bacteria move about ; and this is true of must of them, although there are some which do not appear to move at all, but remain fixed where they flad a good feeling-place.Tbose that bsve motion bebave in a very peculiar manner: Some wobble about in one place without moving forward in the least ; others dart Lither and thither, back and forth, at an apparently furious rate, rocking and twirling about, aod turning a hundred somersaults as they wove along.Bacteria multiply very rapidly, aad they do thie in a strange way.A single one breaks itself in two; then each half grows to be as large as the first.Then these in turn,.divide up again, and so on, until from a single oue we have many thousands in a short time.To give you the figures, such as they are, a single one can multiply at so enormous a rate thst in forty-eight hours it can produce something like 280,000,000 of bacteria.Great consequences follow this enormous increase of bacteria; for, while one which is so small in itself can do little, the vast army resulting from the multiplication of one is able to accomplish much.\u2014[From \u2018Everyday Bacteria,\u201d by Prof.Frederick D.Chester, in St.Nicholas for February.ME Jules Verne Discounted.The achievement of Nellie Bly in \u2018\u2018putting a

would be reduced.The judgment was, therefore, for $500 damages on the main aciion, with costs of ao action as taken (825,000), the tendered retraction to be published within fifleen days from date, and in fault of doing so a further sum of $2,000 to be paid.On the incidental demand for $10,000 the judgment condemns defendant to pay $200 and also to publish a retraction within fifteen days, or in default to pay another $500.> The February Wide Awake opens with a good Persian ballad, \u2018Abu Said,\u201d by Mary E.Bradley, followed by a stirring episode of Western military life by Lieutenant

that their opponents had gone to the electors in 1886 sod condemned the Conservative adminstrs- tion as extravagant.They promised to retrench and devote money to colonization, education, etc.He quoted Mr.Shebyn's speech of 1887, where he again promised to retrench.\u2018The next vear Mr.Shebyn regretted that be could not fulfl his promises and admitted that, instead, there had been an increase and, as 8 kind of palliation, urged that there bad also been increase of revenue.The next year he claimed that, although tbe revenue had been increased, this had been dope without bearing on the people.\u2018This be (Mr.Leblanc) denied.They bad im fresh burdens on lumbermen, op litigants and others.They had been selling snd wasting the publie domain by putriog too much land under the limite, and thus endangering one of our greatest sources of revenue.An incresse of revenue had beep obtained, not by solid business methods of opting down all unnecessary expenditure, but by impusing excessive taxation and squandering our resources.Instead of carrying out their promised of retrenchment they bad gone on Increasing ihe expenditure yesr by fyear.What bad they done with all the money?Nothing, or nearly nothing.What great schemes had they schieved?They had only succeeded in satisfying hordes of hungry friends.Money was epept for electoral purposes apd squandered fight ang left, and «ow, in order to cover up the real stale of our finances and convert a large deficit into an apparent surplus, thev were charging to capital account what was reglly chargeable lo ordinary expenditure.Among tbe items charged to ordinary expenditure are $50,000 for the purchase of seed grain, That was not expendilure on capital account, Jt was charity, ana no une ever mortgaged bis property for charity.But that was whal we was asked to do.Agsin, there was 850,000 for the Montreal court house extension.\u2018Thig jpgluded amounts for repairs to chimneys apd gytiers, ad- vertisiog, clegning drains, and cven coal for fuel, Why should this be cn- tered to capital acçonpt?He closed Ly moving tbe following smendment : This House is prepared to vote supplies to Her Majesty for requirements of publie service, but considers it its duty to protest agringt he system inaugurated by the present Cabipet of carrying 10 capital account expenses which are really ordinary disbursements of the public service; that or- dippry expenses so carried to capital account for the year 1888-89 amount to 8236,996.57 ÿ that this apslem 19 calculated to lead the House and the public into error as to the true cob- dition of the financial affairs of the provinee by allowing the Government to calculate a syrplys in their annual ordinary opperations whep jp reslity there is a deficit.This House regrets that, during the year 1888-89, the Government has increased the expenses chargeable to revenue to the amount of $3,780,615.21 ; that, compared wilh the expenses incurred by the previous Government during tbe years 1884-85 and 1885-86, the expenditure of $3,780,615.21 iu 1888-89 showe the the following in- cresses :-1888-89, 83,780,615.21 ; 1884-85, 82.736,783.86; increase, $845,881.85 ; 1888-89, 83,780,615.21 ; 1885-86, $3,032,607.25; increase, $748,007.96 ; that thie enormous iv- crease of expenditure is not jo proportion to the financial resources of the province, and is not justified by the real requirement of the public eer- vice.Ob division the amendment was defeated by a straight party vote of 14 to 28.The House went into committee of supply and passed several items.The debate was resumed op Mr.Duplessis\u2019 amendment to the Government resolution respecting the cutting of merchantable timber on Crown lands, Mr.Bernatcbez moved a sub-amend- ment to the effect that the foresis existed us heretofore estabished by forer governments, and by its present course the Opposition was seeking to deceive the House and the country.Mr.Duplessis said that Le did not wish thie matter to be disposed of without waking a personal explaus- tion.He was accused the other day of having falsified in the House an order-in-council.L'Electeur repcated the unfounded accusation sod insulting language of the Provincial Secretary.The rules of the House should be sufficient to protect the members from such insults.Mr.Gagnon repeated hie accusations of the other night, and stated that Mr.Duplessis bad falsely read an order-in-council.He defied him bim to say to the contrary.Mr.Duplessis affrmed from his place that he had on that occasion read extracts from the Official Gazette.Mr.Gagnon claimed.that he had not deniec this, but persisted in his explanations.Mr.Taillon said that such scenes as jose made in the House the other night by the Provincial Secretary were a d'isgrace to the House, Mr.Flyng contended that insulls were not arguments, though they appeared to be the favorite ones of the Provincial Secretary.Mr.Gagnon had wrongly insulted My.Duplessis, and wheo bis honor would have dicia- ted an apology, be had simply retreal- ed in a shameful manner, at the same time hurling other injurious remarke at Nr.Duplegsis.After further remarks of a persona! nature à vote was taken on the sub- amendment of Mr.Bernatchez, which was defeated on a division of 26 to 14 a strict party vote, +.Sir William Vernon Harcourt will bring up the Pigott forgeries in the British Parliament to-morrow, upon a question uf privilega.It is suggested that the removal of the diequalitication pronounced against Mr.Whyte, of Megantic, may clear the way

parable that he might report to his King the wislom of Greece, which they did.Only one was silent, who when ssked why, replied :\u2014* Report to your lord that there sre of the Grecians those who can hold their peace.\u2019 This wisdom does vot commend itself to the loyal Opposition, and so in the debate on the Franchise Act they complained frequently that tke Ministerialists would not defend the Act, but beld their peace.The debate began on the motion of Dr.Wilson of Elgin to repeal the Act and adopt the old Provincial franchises.The Opposition urged that this was mgre couvenient and less expensive, and it enabled such of the Provinces us bad manhood suffrage\u2014Ontario, Manitoba and Prince Fdward [sland \u2014to avail themselves of it in the Dominion elections as well.Mr.Laurier, however, declared himself opposed to the principle of manbood suffrage.The Hon.J.A.Clapleau, Secretary of State, was the chief expquent of the views of the Government.He declared for a national franchise, framed by the National Parliament, based on the principle of uniformity.He boped they might he gble to simplify the machinery gnd \u201calso reduce the cost.He gave the cost of the first revision in 1886 as 8418,000 and of tbe second, in 1889, ag $152,500.He did uot tuink it necessary to have an annual revision of the voiers lists.The discussion lasted three days, a number of Mipigterjglists responding later on to the invitation and warmly defending the Act the wotion to repeal which was rejected.The appuintiment to tbe Senate of ex-Lieut.oyernment Massou to succeed the late\u2019 M.Rodjer, is a very popular one.A moderate man, of high character, Mr.Masson has the respect of both the great political parties: He wag Sir John Macdonald\u2019e first Minister of Milita ii 1878, but resigned in 1880 ou account of ill bealth, and was called to the Senate in 1882, a position he resigned in 1884 to beçome Lieut.-Governor of Quebec.He is now summoned hack to the sphere he then left.) Friday evening saw the first lively scenes of the gession, slthough the session was three weeks old, Jt arose in Committee of supply over a statement submitted on Tuesday by Hou, C, H.Tupper as to the expenditure poder the differen\u2019 governments for advertising in, snd subscriptions to newspapers.The Opposition charged that ihe statement was misleading and intentionally so.This brought Tupper to his feet with an explanation ihgt hie glafement was on y intended \u2018to be partial and be had said sn at the Lime.Finally, Dr.Landerkin began to banter tbe Minister of Marine about his father, the High Comuissiover, and used the term \u2018\u2018falsehood\u201d as applicable to Mr.Tuppers action, Young Tup- per\u2019s blood was now up and he tauni- ed the witty doctor with being the buffoon of the House and declared bjs language more fit for a bar-room than for Parligment.Landerkin, who would joke op his degth-bed, again proved his title to be the jester of the House, after which the pol was allowed to simmer down, bul only for a few minutes.\"This time the Opposition started in to badger Sir Adolphe Caron, Minister of Militia, over his traveling expenses gnd Dr.Wilson was wicked enough to refer tg goge certain trip of Sir Adolphe's to the seaside with a fair fellow traveler.At this the Minister rose quickly to bis feet and hotly resented Dr.Wilson's insolence.A hub-bub followed and Mr.Laurier asked that tbe words should be retracted.Sir Adolphe continued speaking notwithstanding that Sir Juhn Macdonald frequently motioned him io sit down.is dolphe was paturally angry and he told thé chairman that be would not retract but in a few minutes at the Premier's com- maad, he did so.Most of the Min- isterialists enjoyed Sir Adolphe\u2019s predicament gs pe is disliked by the Ontario men, The Premier 1g0 plainly \u2018showed that he was angry at tlie minister\u2019s method of meeting the stings of tbe Opposition bees, as in Committee of Supply all the other Minis- terg exhibited an even temper and a disposition to fyrpish all proper information.Wednesday (to-morrow) is Bxed for the big discussion on dual languages over Dalton McCarthy's bill.À special excursion from Montreal is expected on tbat day.There are two amendments proposed but only one will be moved as Mr.Davin's.like Mr.Robt.White's, is to the effect that the whole question be left to the people of the Northwest them- selyes.This is the line tbe Government will take and the pmendment is certain to carry.\"The debate will be au exciting one but an effort to close it Friday night will be wade.To-pight Mr.Laurier's amendment to Bupply providing that the rebate of the duty on imported corn made to distillers when they export whisky tbe product of that corn, will be probably discussed.I

her write it Stella Carson for the first and last time in her life.Then several of the indunas, or head men, including old Indaba-zimbi, put their marks in witness.Indaba-zimba drew his mark in the shape of a little star, in humo ullusion to Btella'a native name.register is before me now as I write.That, with a lock of my darling'e hair that lies between its leaves, is my dearest n.There are all the names and marks as they were written many years ago beneath the shadow of the tree on Babyan Kraals in the wilderness, but alas! and alas! where are those who wrote them?«My people,\u201d said Mr.Carson, when the singing was done and we had kissed each other before them all\u2014*\u2018my people, Macumazahn and the Star, my daughter, are now man and wife, to live in one kraal, to eat of one bowl, to share one fortune til} they reach the grave, Hear now, my people, you know this woman,\u201d and, turning, he pointed to Hendrika, who, unseen by us, had been led out of the prison hut.\u201cYes, yes, we know her,\u201d said a little ring of head men, who formed the primitive court of justice, and after the fash- jon of natives had squatted themselvesin a circle on the ground in front of us.\u201cWe know her; she is the white babyan woman; she is Hendrika, the body sery- ant of the Star.\u201d \u201cYou know her,\u201d said Mr.Carson, \u201cbut you do not know her altogether.Stand forward, Indaba-zsimbi, and tell the people what came about last night in the hut of Macumazhan.\u201d Accordingly old Indaba-zimbi came forward, and, squatting down, told hie moving tale with much descriptive force 3nd many gestures, finishing up by producing the great knife from which his watchfulness had saved me.Then I was called upon, and in a few brief words subetantiated his story; indeed my face did that in the sight of all men.Then Mr, Carson turned to Hendrika, who stood in sullen silence, her eye: fixed upon the ground, and asked her if she had anything to say.She looked up boldly and answered: \u201cMacumazahn has robbed me of th love of my mistress.I would bav robbed Lim of his life, which is a litt} thing compared to that which I hav.lost at his hands.I have failed, and : am sorry for it, for had I killed him an; left no trace the Star would have forgot ten him and shone on me again.\u201d \u201cNever,\u201d murmured Steila in my ear.but Mr.Carson turned white with wrath.\u201cMy people,\u201d he said, \u201cyou hear the words of this woman.You hear how she pays me back, me and my daughte: whom she swears she loves.She says that she could have murdered a man who has done her no evil, the man whc is the husband of her mistress.We saved her from the babygans, we tamed her, we fed her, we taught her, and this is how she pays us back.Say, my people, what reward shall be given to her?\u201d \u201cDeath,\u201d said the circle of indunas.pointing their thumbs downwards, and all the multitude beyond echoed the word \u2018\u2018Death.\u201d \u201cDeath,\u201d repeated the head induna, adding: \u2018\u2019If you save her, my father, we will slay her with our own hands.Shë is a babyan woman, a devil woman; ah, yes, we have heard of such before: let her be slain before she works more evil.\u201d Then it was that Stella stepped for ward and begged for Hendrika's life in moving terms.Sbe pleaded the savagery of the woman's nature, her long service, and the affection that she had always shown toward herself.\u201d She said that I, whose life had been attempted, forgave her, and she, my wife, who bad nearly been left a widow before she was made a bride, forgave her; let them forgive her also, let her be sent away, not slain, let not her marriage day be stained with lood.Now her father listened readily enough, for he had no iutention of killing Hen- drika\u2014indeed, he had already promised not to do so.But the people were in a different humor, they looked upon Hen- drika as a devil, and would have torn her to pieces thereand then, could they have had their way.Nor were matters mended by Indaba-zimbi, who had already gained p great reputation for wisdom and magic In the place.Suddeply the old man rose ind made quite an impassioned speech, urging them to kill Hendrika at once or mischief would come of it.At last matters got very bad, for two sf the indunas came forward to drag her Hf to execution, and it was not until Stella fairly burst into tears that the sight of her grief, backed by Mr.Car aon's orders and my own remonstrances, carried the day.All this while Hendrika had been standing quite unmoved.At last the tumult stopped, and the leading induna called to her to go, promising that if ever she showed her face near the kraale again she should be stabbed like a jackal Then Hendrika spoke to Stella in a low voice in English: \u2018Better let them kill me, mistress, better for all.Without you to love I shall go mad and become à babyan again.\u201d Stella did not answer, and they loosed her.She stepped forward and looked at the natives with a stareof hate.Then she turned and walked past me, and ae she passed whispered a native phrase in my ear, that, being literally translated, means, \u201cTill another moon,\u201d but which has the sgme significance as the French \u201cau revoir.\u201d It frightened me, for I knew she meant that she had not done with me, and saw that our mercy was misplaced.Seeing my face change she ran swiftly from me, and as she passed Indaba-zimbi, with a smydden movement snatched her great knife from his hand.When she had gone about twenty paces she halted.looked long and earnestly on Stella, gave one loud cry as of anguish, and fled.A few minutes later we saw her far away, bounding up the face of an almost perpendicular clif\u2014a cliff that nobody except herself and the baboons could possibly climb.\u201cLook,\u201d said Indabe-simbi in my ear, \u201clook, Macumazahn, there goes the babyan frau.But, Macumasahn, she will çome Log

present, and Stella, my dear and lovely wife, was there at my side, and in her smiles | forgot my fears.For the rest of that day, why should | write of it>\u2014there are things too happy and too sacred to Le written of.At last I had.if only for a little while, found that rest, that perfect joy whic'i | we seek so continually and so rarely clasp.- CHAPTER XL couples are quit: as happy as wi found ourselves.Cynics, a growing class, declar: that few illusions can survive a honeymoon.Well, I do not know about it, for I only married once, and can but speak from my limited experience.But certainly our illusion, or rather the great truth of which it is the shadow, did survive, as to this day it survives in my heart.But complete happiness is not allowed in this world even for an hour.Three days after our wedding Mr.Carson had a stroke.It had been long impending, now it fell We came into the center hut to dinner and found him lying speechless.At first I thought that he was dying, but this was not so.On the contrary, within four days he recovered his speech and some power of movement.But he never recovered his memory, though he still knew Stella, and sometimes myself.Curiously enough he remembered little Tota best of all three, though occasionally he thought that she was his own daughter in her childhood, and would ask her where her mother was.This state of affairs lasted for some seven months.The old man gradually grew weaker, but he did not die.Of course his condition quite precluded the idea of our leaving Babyan Kraal till all was over.This was the more distressing to me because I had a nervous presentiment that Stella was incurring danger by staying there, and also because the state of her health rendered it desirable that we should reach a civilized region as soon as possible.At length the pnd came very suddenly.We were sitting une evening by Mr.Carson's bedside in his hut, when to our astonishment he sat up and spoke.\u201cI hear you,\u201d he said.\u2018Yes, yes, | forgive you.Poor woman! you too have suffered,\u201d and he fell back dead.I have little doubt that he was addressing his lost wife, some vision of whom had flashed across his dying senses.Stella, of course, was overwhelmed with grief at her loss.Till I came her father had been her sole companion, and therefore,as may be imagined, the tie between them was much closer than is usual even in the case of father and daughter.So deeply did she mourn that I began to fear for the effect upon her health.Nor were we the only ones to grieve; all the natives on the settlement called Mr.Carson \u2018\u2018father,\u201d and as a father they lamented him.The air resounded with the wailing cf women.and the men went about with bowel heads, saying that \u2018\u2018the sun had set in the heavens, now only the Star (Stella) remained.\u201d Indaba-zimbi alone did no: mourn.He said that it was best that the Inkoos should die, for what was life worth when one lay like a log?\u2014more- over, that it would have been well for all if he had died sooner.On the following day we buried him in the little graveyard near the waterfall.It was a sad business and Stella cried very much, in spite of all I could do to comfort her.That night as I sat outside the hut smoking\u2014for the weather was hot and Stella was lying down inside\u2014old Indaba- zimbi came up, saluted and eqratted at my feet.\u201cWhat is it, Indaba-zimbi?\u201d I said.\u201cThis, Macumazahn.When are you going to trek towards the coast?\u201d \u2018I don\u2019\u2018tknow,\u201dIanswered, \u2018\u2019FheStar is not fit to travel now; we must wait awhile.\u201d \u201cNo, Macumazahn, you must not wait; you must go, and the Star must take her chance.She is strong.It is nothing.All will be well.\u201d \u201cWhy do you say so?Why must we > Bo For this reason, Macumazahn,\u201d and he looked cautiously round and spoke low.\u201cThe baboons have come back in thousands.All the mountain is full of them.\u201d \u201cI did not know that they had gone,\u201d said.\u201cYes,\u201d he answered, \u201cthey went after the marriage, al} but one or two; now they are back, all the baboons in the world, 1 think.I saw a whole cliff black with them.\u201d \u201cIs that all?\u201d I said, for I saw that he had something behind.\u201cI am not afraid of a pack of baboons.\u201d \u201cNo, Macumazahn, it is not all.The babyan-frau, Hendrika, is with them.\u201d Now, nothing had been heard or seen of Hendrika since her expulsion, and though at first she and her threats had haunted rie somewhat, by degrees she had to « great extent passed out of my mind, which was fully preoccupied with Stella and my father-in-law\u2019s illness.I started violently.\u201cHow do you know this?\u201d I asked.\u201cI know it because I saw her, Macu- mazahn.She is disguised, she is dressed up in baboon skins, and lier face js stained dark.But though she was a long way off I knew her by ber size, and I eaw the white flesh of her arm when the skins slipped aside.She has come back, Macumazahn, with all the baboons in the world, and she has come back to do evil.Now do you understand why you should trek?\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d I said, \u201cthough I don't see how she and the baboons can harm us.1 think that it will be better to go.If necessary we can camp the wagons some where for a while on the journey.Hearken, Indaba-zimbi: say nothing of this to the Star: I will not have her frightened.And hearken again.Speak to the head men, and see that
