Grandmother's Dream.

[CONCLUDED. |

She watched and waited for about half an hour, and was just thinking of opening the door when a faint whooping reached her trom the weotls, A moment afterwards grandfather came flying across the fields, waving his hands to her as soon as leaving the woods, Two or three minutes later the Indians burst out of the woods in full ery, but were forty rods behind the fugitive,

Grandmother realized that an escape had been made, and she laid down a revolver and stood ready to opena door. As the fugitive got within twenty rods, being then thirty rods ahead of pursuit, she began to unbar the door. She had only touched it when some one leap- ed against it—not one, but four or five, .Find- ing it fast, the savages, for such they were, set up howl of rage and retreated out of range. Grandfather was standing still, about fifteen rods front the door, and the woman did not have to look twice to see into the game. One ofthe Indians had donned the prisoner's ciothing, jammed the familiar hat over his forehead, and the pursuit was all a sham. Before he had left the woods four or tive Indians had made a detour and softly ap- proached the house, so as to be ready to leap in when the bar came down from the door. It ‘was not grandmother’s wit, but their own haste in leaping out, which had prevented the capture of the house afd her death. .

Lhe savages then tried another plan. They brought. the old man out of the woods, naked except his shirt, tied him to a wild plum tree just out of rifle range of the house, and then set about maltreating him, hoping to work on the woman’s sympathies. Grandmother could see every movement made, and she was nearly crazed to see them assault the old man with Knives and clubs. “They picked him until he was covered with blood, though not seriots!y wounded in any spot, and, cut- ting a number of switches from the hazel bushes, they whipped him until they were tired of the sport. The old man groaned a little, but they could not make him cry out,as they hoped to do ; and in his heart he hoped that grandmother would not be imprudent

enough to attempt interference. Her heart, big witi sympathy and _ distress, and her eyes full of ‘tears, the woman

allowed the savages toget ahead of her.

Several of them moved back out of the range of the knothole, skulked around to the north side of the cabin, and grandmother's first intimation of their presence was when she heard the crackling of flames in the brush which they had previously piled against the north door As soon as the flames were ighted the savages drew off a few rods and tmmencéd shooting at the spot over the door Where she had pulled out the chinking to shoot at them before. Notwithstanding the whistling of the balls, which every moment came through into the garret, the woman mounted the ladder with a pail of water, dashed the contents out through the crevice, and mere accident guided the dash so that the flaines were drowned out.

Two hours had passed since the first ap- pearance of the Indians; grandmother had killed ome and wounded others, and such a firing and yelling had been kept up that the redskins were fearful that help might come to the woman, and therefore they withdrew. She counted them as they went away to be sure that none was left behind. They took the dead one on their shoulders and the wounded were assisted along, each between two of his companions. They entered the woods, and after an hour had passed without their reappearance grandmother realized that all danger to her was over. She opened the door, took a scout around the house and then her eye fell upon the horses, The animals had made a long run when first taking fright, going across the fields for a mile or more, and were now coming toward the house, dragging a portion of the plow after them. In ten minutes the woman was galloping toward the nearest settlement, carrying both rifle and re- volver. <A ride of an hour brought her to the hamlet, and seven or eight men quickly mounted their horses and returned with her. The cabin had not been disturbed, and leaving their horses there, the men, headed by the anxious and tireless woman, took up the trail of the Indians, Following it for an hour, nearly always on the run, they suddenly heard the reports of rifles, followed by whoops and

ells.

% Two bachelors named Turner had a cabin and a farm in the direction of the shots, and the pursuers tealized that the Indians had attacked them. They were hurrying to the rescue, grandmother leading, ritle in hand, when she suddenly gave a sign of warning, and all sank down. She had caught sight of graudfather and his two guards. Through the sparse timber the men could see grand- father bound to a tree and his guards standing near by, but their faces turned in the direc- tion of the battle, which was raging beyond.

Like so many tigers the pursuers crept for- ward, and only halted when within eight or ten rods of. the captive. They silently ar- ranged for a volley which should riddle the bodies of the guards, and would have deli- vered it ina moment more but for grand- father. He caught sight of them, and his joy was so great that he could not repress a loud shout. The Indians turned on hearing it, and also catching sight of the pursuers, gave a yell and darted away. A volley was fired as they fled, and the one behind made a great leap into the air and fell over like a log, four or tive bullets having struck him in the head.

The other one ran directly for his com- panions, and his news raised the seige of the Turner cabin in a moment. Finding that a revengeful foe was on their trail, the Indians mace all haste out of the neighborhood and could not be overtaken.

Grandfather was like a child when released. He laughed and cried by turns, threw his arms around grandmother, shook hands with the men and acted like one gone crazy. He had been cruelly used by the red rascals, and was so weak when he attempted to start homeward thatthe men had tocarry him most of the way. The couple were nota

Owing toa strong cross wind, and the in- ferior quality of the ammunition, the scor- ing was not up to the average. Below are the scores :—

Imperial Federation.

-——

Commenting upon Mr. Parnell’s declara- tion as to Imperial Federation, a London correspondent writes:

“It leaves the Liberal Unionists without any legs to stand) upon, removes the words separation and separates from the political conflict, puts the Irish party in an aggressive instead of an defensive attitude, and insures them an enormous accession in En gland, Scot- land and Wales. Some indication of its im- portance is the childish fashion in which it has been received by the great Conservative and Unionist dailies of Lendon. provincial press has been fnll of it, the Lon- don organs have mostly been mute. The Morning Advertiser delivered a wail on the morning following, beginning. with: ‘‘ We have no hesitation in reiterating our convic- tion that the new departure is calculated to de mischief to the Unionist cause, and we think it would be criminal to shut our eyes to the danger.’ Further on it says; ‘Persuade the Liberal electors, upon whom the Unionist Government depends for its support, that home rule in its old mischievous sense is dead and that so far from being separatists Mr. Gladstone and his allies are the only true Unionists, and it may well be expected that the alliance of the past two years wiil be shattered. Liberals in the constituencies will return to their old allegiance, and Mr, Glad- stone will once more have a triumphant ma- jority at his command.’ This is pretty strong language for the Advertiser, and it makes it quite clear that the other Unionist papers do not propose that their readers shall have any more information ‘concerning Mr, Par- nell’s plan than they can help. This is the queer but costomary policy in English journalism. They have all boycotted it. The only reference to it in the London 7imes has been a letter from a prominent Fenian, who says that Lreland should have an independent existence for twenty-five years before she en- tered into confederation. In spite of all the papers in England, however, the plan will], I think, eventually succeed, because it has all the intrinsic elements of success. In Scotland and Wales it will be greeted with eagerness, and adopted by acclamation by a liberal ma- jority in both populations. In England it will be supported by all those interests which have special vbjects teu gain in the way of legislation, and which now find themselves balked, session after session, by the large amount of time wasted on political matters to the almost entire exclusion of special legisla- tion. In fact, the plan is one which wins for itself support from many powerful sources, and by its fairness destroys the possibility of opposition of an intelligent and honest nature.

Ingersoll on Whiskey.

Col. **Bob” Ingersoll, the eloquent Yankee infidel, appears to be as much in favor of whiskey as against the{Gospel. It is difficult to see how any person could be in favor of both of these things, for they have nothingin common. About a year ago Ingersoll pronounced a glowing eulogy on whiskey, speaking as follows :—

‘“T send yousome of the most wonderful whiskey that ever drove the skeleton from a feast or painted landscapes in the brain of man. It is the mingled souls’ of wheat and corn. Init you will find the sunshine and shadow that chase each other over, the bil- lowy fields, the breath of June, the carol of the lark, the dews of the night, the wealth ot summer, and autumn’s rich content— all golden with imprisoned light. Drink it, and you will hear the voice of men and maidens singing the ‘ Harvest Home,’ mingled with the laughter of children. Drink it, and you will feel within your blood the star- light dawns, the dreamy tawny tusks of many perfect days. For forty years this liquid joy has been within the happy staves of oak, longing to touch the lips of man.

On which the Toronto Globe remarks :—

week getting out of the state, going back to

of his death, when grandmother took occasion at the breakfast table to say that she had dreamed of this or that, he nevi. aga’n charged her with being whimsical, or ex-| pressed a desire to see her midnight visions | fulfilled. | > | To rue Dear.—A person cured of Deafnes, and noises in the head of 23 years’ standing by a simple remedy will send a description of it FREE to any person who applies to NicHoL

‘‘True heart-song, whether of man or maid-

singing and B accanalian laughter, mingled, not with ‘ the laughter of children” so (much as with the tears of childhood and the de- spairing sobs of women.” 4 BartTLerr Pears, Bananas, Apples, Oranges and Lemons just received at Beer & Goff's.
