Once upon a time the creatures living with a farmer grew tired of serving him, and one and all deserted Min. Cow and horse, cock and he, duck and gottae, left his dwelling. Only the dog remained behind, faithful to his master. They wandered around all day long in compauy, and when night came, finding a deserted hut in the foreat, they entered- in and took possession a it. The cat laid herself down in the still warm ashes on the hearth. Horse and cow stretched themselves ouG on some loose straw in one earner. The duck waddled under a bench, the goose under a table, the hen flew up on top of a cupboard, the cock on the ehtmney place. Just as they had. cornfortabl,y eettled themselves for the night a pack of wolves came prowling around the hut, and sent the oldest and strongest one among them into it to see who it was who had taken possession there. When the wolf came in at the door he saw the cat's eyes glowing in the dark, and took them for live coals on the hearth. Bat when he 0:41118 up closer the eat flew at him, iearly' scratching his eyes out. The horse got up from the atravr and. gave him a kiok in the ribs. And when the wolf turned to flee frora the hut the cow butted him magnet the wall with her horns. The hen clucking loudly on his back, while the duck and. the goose nipped his legs with their bills and just as he, frightened and bewildered with the reception he bad got, managed to escape out of the door, the cock on the chimney -piece bent out with loud, jubilant crowing: Master wolf came back to his comrades in a very sad plight. "That was a nice task you gave me," he said, reproachfully. "The hot is tenanted by witches. When I came in and went up to the hearth where 1 saw some coals burn- ing, the vixen of a cook flew at me and nearly scratched my eyes out, the grooin got up from the corner where he had been lying and almost broke my ribs with a blow of his flail, whilst the farmer himself, seizing a pitchfork, thrust me rudely against the wall. His wife struck me on the back with her distaff, and two of her maids crying 'I3aelz back,' struck me again and again in the lege with their shears. And just as I was fleeing from the house another maid, Irma a room under the roof, cried out, in a terrible voice, 'Bring hirn to ine—to me.'

There is a part of the Scottish Highlands, beyond Ballater, where the railway stops, that enjoy a a comparative immunity from touriets. True, they come but not in great nurnberea aitgoert Victoria has need 01t her royal power and influence to keep them out, and has aticceeded. in a measure. . It is this reactionary old laily who is respousible for the railway ceasing at Dallater, which is nine miles from Balmoral Castle. She doesn't want the weld, romantic Dee side profaned: any further by the march of improveinenta and the Highlanders, who have every rea- son to respect her whims, are content to wait until Albert Edward is King bolero they make any changes. And it is by no tneasis certain that the changes will be im- provement, or that the reactionary old lady isn't right after all. If any people in the world have mann to be grateful to the. Queen, it is these Scotch Highlanders. In looking at the 'country with i the eyes of ono country born and country bred, it is hard to see how a living could be made by the people before that an- nual Autumn influx took place. There are noble mountains, there are lovely stretch- es ofpurple heather, and wild water -falls rushing madly down into the gloomy fells and glena and valleys full of a solemn and remantio beauty ; but nature when she created the Highlands seems to have ben in the Stialle mood as the liberal -minded French geetleman who declared if he had the luxuries of life he could 0.8ily dispeeSe with the necessaries. For with all this beauty there is apparent- ly no,provision made for supporting human life. The land is poor and most of it utter- ly worthlees for cultivation. The thin soil in the valleys is cultivated admirably, but the clii mate s so severe that, only the hardi- est cereals and vegetables can exist at all. It isnot a good grazing country, but by an almost superhuman thrift and perseverance sheep of fair quality are raised, and a good many of them, too. The Dukes of Bum cleugh own much of this romeutio and uu- prodtable region, and the value of these pas - sessions is waggishly set forth by a. proverb currant in the Ifighlanda ; " If heather bells wore corn ra the best Bucoleugh would have a bony grist," .a.seponewsweiseepanwoosemeeess, IN THE SCOTCH .HIGHLANDS. From a mem' glance at the people apd the country, one would infer that the High- landers lived on mists and crags and bag- pipes and " leapin' and ilingin'." These people claim to be descended from the Greeks, and they point to their kilts as the strict evolution ol the Greek tunic; to the arrangements of their plaids, which is ex- aotly that of Greek drapery, and to their graceful and warlike dance, which they say Is the aurvival of the Pyrrhic dance. Any- body who associates long faces and long prayers and the iron rule of "the kirk with the Scotch will have to leave these primitive mountain people out. They have a fierce appetite for pleasure, and "the kirk" accommodates itaolf to them, so far as to admit of much danciun and fiddling and bagpiping and unlimited quantitiee of VIAUSICY• • Urn Knox and Ms followers never dominated the Highlands as they did the Lowland; partly because the Righlandera were intensely loyal to the Stuarts, and partly because they didn't fancy a Cal- vinistic strictness of behavior. jacobitism and Catholicism clung together in those mountain fastnesses and still survive to the most extraordinary degree. The Queen her self is a Jacobite and is prouder of her Stuart blood than any other that flows in her Veins. As a matter of fact, it is so re- mote that there is a good deal of doubt whether she can properly claim any Stuart descent at all. It is said thatshe never for - re Lord Ala.caulayfor the reply be made or when elle said "Don't you think you were rather hard in your history upon my poor ancestor, James IL'?" "But, Madam," answered Macaulay, "he was not your ancestor l" It is also an open question whether tbe royal family has any special right to wear the Stuart; tartan, but the Queen has got over the difficulty by herself inventing the roost remarkable conglomeration of color, which is called the Victorian tartan, and which covers the sofas and chairs at Bal- moral Castle and hangs from the windows and carpets some of the floors. Any Scotch. man who has no distinctive clan tartan may wear the Stuart tarta,u—and that is as much claim as any members of the royal family have to it. The Queer?, though, has made the tartan popular. Fifty years ago it went out of fashion completely. The common people woreeit, but the gentlemen never thought of such a thing. Now the tartan is quite the proper caper. All of the great landed proprietors put it on as soon as they get to Scotland, and their servents leave off livery and put it on also, tnaster and man wear- hig the same tartan. In the morning, when the gentlemen go deer -stalking or shooting or fishing—everybody shoots and hunts and fishesin Scotland --the gentlemen wear stout, serviceable tartans, like the gillies and gamekeepers. But at dinner they are superb in splendid tartans of silk warp and woof. The stockings are of silk, and the kntfc carried in the stocking leg is jeweled. The clasp on the shoulder is superbly set and the cap has a diamond button. Nobody ear wear this costume well except a Scotch - man. The Queen is so infatuated with it that she putsall her guests, and particular- ly her German into it as soon as they get up to _Helmeted. Prince Henry of Bat tenberg is the inunhing stock of all the people round about, in his kilt and plaid, and Mr. La,bouchere is never tired of poking fen at the handsome pink and white German, because he looks se unhappy when his knees are bare. But to 'see a great Scotch gentleinam like the Duke of Fife, the Queen's gra,ndson-in- law, for example, marching at the head of 20 0 Duff 'men, every one, from Duke to mekeeper, a Duff and conscious of it, mid allwearing proudly the Duff tartan, is in - d a splendid sight. The Duke is not a dsorne man—on the contrary; he. is !ler coin monplace-leokiag and short, and rowly missed hiving a red head—but in ghland costume he looks every inch' a ke, and what is a good deal more, a num. ervilo people never would have held on . his 'costume, but the most captivating ng about these Highlanders is their en. want of serail:it*.

George Barker 'of Niagara rails Trimi 40 His 'Beautiful Daughter. • A Niagara Falls despatch says : George' Barker, a prominent resident of this city, suddenly went insane the other night, and in a fit of rage attetripted to murder Inc bountiful daughter, Marie Barkers The tragedy was averted only through Minn Barker's escape during a moment when hea father went to seem a weapon to heat her brains out. The particulars of the affair. are shrouded in mystery to some extent. At an early hour in the evening the resi- dents of Buffalo avenue, the fashionable thoroughfare of the eityain the vicieity of the Barker residence, were startled by shrieks of a girl for help. The family of Alexamler Porter responded to tglie cries and rescued the girl. Mr, Porter's hostler, named Bsoliarclsen, a young engineer named Standislt and 311r. Porter earried Miss Barker over to the Porter residence. She was badly injured, but told this story of the murderous assault: She was com- ing down stairs and heard her father storming ahont the lower mins of the house. She enquired of him what was the inattor end he turned upon her like a demon. He knocked. the girl down, kicked and stamped upon her postrath body and pulled a handful of hair out of her head. She Legged of him not to kill her, but with a fiendish yell he said be would finish her in a moment, and startsd towards the back Part of the house to secure an axe or olub, .Miss Barker managed to mewl up to her room, lock thedoor and raising the window called for help. After the girl was safely housed with the Porter family, Barker se- cured a revolver and came over to the house, threatening to kill anyone who inter:ered with him reaching his daughter. Young Porter stood at the door with a rifle and told him to get out or he would shoot him if he dared to cross the threshold. The police were summoned au dsacceeded in over- powering the man and taking the revolver away from him. Both father and daughter are under medical attendance to -day. The girl's injuries are considered quite serious. Barker is a photographerof national repute and a man of considerable wealth. He is high up in Masonic circles and his friends aro surprised at the violence of his insanity. He has been known to have spells at times, but never of a dangerous nature' as in the present instance.

DYNAMITE IN YAMS. Au Explosion in the Building of the Pre- fecture of Police. A Paris deapatch says :—An explosion at 1.30 o'clock this morning in the hall lead- ing to the offices between the ground floor and first story of the Prefecture ot Police has caused a sensation. An investigation of the premises by ex- perts shows that the affair was uridou ded- ly the avorIc of Anarchists, who had placed in the entresol a bomb heavily -charged with chlorate powder. The result of the investigation has caused considerable excitement in official circles, where it is believed that the' Anagehista, taking advantage of the confusion attendant upon the revelations of the Panama Canal, have. Started to inaugurate a reign of terror similar to that which prevailed when Rave- chol and his colleagues caused the explosions here when many of the wealthy residents of the city hastily packed their household effects and took refuge in the country. The best detectives in Paris have been detailed on the ease, and arrests of Anarchists, whether the real culprits or not, are certain to follow. GUARDING MR. GLADSTONE.

A despatch from Kootenay, B. C., says Albert Monson, who has reaehed bore from Montana, Odle a wonderiul story. He says z Two prospectors, named respeetively Phil Barnes and Pierre Leger, a Flathead. Indian guide named Klikat and myself, left Bon- ner's Ferry on the 7th day of August, and struck out in a noptheasterly directlon, headed fov the pealte and canyons in the extreme northern range ef the MAUI divide of the Rockies. The purpose of my two white companions was to prospect for Yalu- a.ble minerals in a seetion of efenntrY Whin)) few, if any, white men have ever entered before. My own object was to seek diversion and adventure, and being.a, newspaper inau, to gather facts hitherto unknown and make them public at my leisure. On the ntith day of .Angust—according to. the observa- tions taken- by me --we were within twenty- five or thirty miles of the Canadian line and at an altitude of 71500 feet. It was noon of the day mentioned above. On our left was a craggy precipice about eighty feet high overhanging a roaring mountain stream, and extending fully two miles to the south. But we heard more than the sweah of the running stream. There came to our ears a deep, roaring sound, alternating in force, stronger and- weaker,at iutervals of a few j seconds. It came in arring sounds, with A VOLUME LIKE THU:ME:IL For some minutes we listened in ailence, Than ouddealy Klikat spoke. "Me know what, him is," he said, with a pleased air of comprehension. "Bun. is' Big-liele-in-the-Water. Rim heap water run to hell andput out devilni camp fire. anig i hole n the water," I cohered. "What do you mean by that, Xlikat ?" "You come look," ho said, advancing to the edge of the precipiee and throwing self flat on the rock with his head and shoulders hanging over. "Ugh 1" he ex- claimed. "Big -Hole -in -the -Water heap i mad to -day. Him funny." Water go' n ground; never come out," Following Klikat's example J eautionsly approached the edge of the projectingreek, threw myself on the ground face downward, and peered down from the diziy height. Barnes and Leger did likewise. It was A curious and awe inspiring sight that we beheld. Straight down bele* there was a deep pool, or lake, About a quarter of an acre in area and enclosed on three sides by high walls of eternal rock, thus forming a perpetual and insurmountable barrier to ehe plumage of the water beyondthis spot. The neje)/ mountain stream pouref I great volumes of sparkling water into this natural basin and then lost itself. The water in the pool swung rapidly around its " on a pivot and constantly drifted in a steadily acceler- ated tidal current toward the centre. And here was the most startling feature of this wonderful stream. In the very centre of the deep water was a LARGE CIRCULAR CAVITY, or depression, futtnel-shaped--a great "suck hole," in fact—fully eight feet :Larose at the =Hue, the water spinninground and round, rushing downward with lightning speed. A tremendous force of gravity Was at work in that awful pit of darkness. In tbe centre of this funnel was a greab mass of snow white foam, dancing and whirling and scattering flakes of ieself around the dark blue rim of the vortex. '` At intervals of fifteen or twenty seconds there would be a greater downward rush of water, the pil- lar of foam would disappear with the in- creased speed of the current ; then the roar would increase in volume, another pile ler of foam would form, only to disappear a few moments later as the previous one had done. It was a grand, a terrrible sight. I glanced at my two friends, who like myself wore eleetrified by this mighty freak of nature. "If I could find. a ledge of quartz with color in it anywhere near by," observed Mr. Barnes, "I woulderect a stamp mill right here and drop a horizontal wheel into that boiling suck hole. Great Soot 1 but wouldn't it spin, though !" I rather thought it would, but at that moment my attention was suddenly and and shockingly attrectecl to Klikat, who had been lying about eight feet away on my, left. There was a low, crumbling sound and then a mass of shelving rock right under Klikat broke loose and. PELT. WITH A PEARFUL CRASH into the edge of the whirling pool. Istarted to my feet just as I saw the Indian making frantic efforts to cling to the edge of the clift. But his hold was too slight anct the rock crumbled under his grasp. Without uttering word or sound of any hind Klikat fell headlOng into the mad water beneath. After it few seconds he came to the surface. Barnes rushed to one of the pack mules for 0 rope, but it was too late. Three, four, five times did Klikat swing around in a spiral °mile that gradually grew nearer to the centre of the great funnel, at the same time making frantic efforts to swim out of it. But it was labor lost. With a movemeut that looked like a sudden twist he shot into the very centre of the vortex. For one brief movement he sprungaround like a top, and thendown he went with the pillar of foam, out of sight into the bowels of the earth and the darkness of death. We atlast reached the south shore of Lake Kootenay. just before s undown we anchored on the west shore and pulled the canoe' out ofsthe water. We, at once began prepare, - tuns for a camp fire and it was while in the act of gathering dry driftwood alone the shore that Legeidiscovered a very glTastly object lying in the.water withiu six feet of land. It was the corpse of a man—an Indian. Leger at once called us to him, and together we dragged the body ashore. The face of the dead was BADLY 13111718ED AND TORN and utterly disfigured. The body was very much bloated, toes , and all we could see for a certainty was that the corpse was the remains of au Indian& "Hold on ?" suddenly exclaimed Barnes, as he bent over the dead body and cut some- thing from the neck—a piece of ragged cloth, "By—l" he cried, as he raised him selferect and held up the article mentioned. "This is the remnant of my silk hand- kerchief, which I gave to poor Klikat to cover the gash he cat on his neck' by that dead limb one day—do you remember? And see! Right here in this corner is my monogram—lPs B.'—worked in silk." It was so. 1V e all recognized the silken rag and we all knew that the corpse before ns was the dead body of Klikat, who had fallen into the funnel of that awful subter ranee, n river, fully 250 miles away, far up in the rockies of Northern Montana. And yet there was his corpse, drifted ashore on this lake, between which and the " big hole in the water" there is not the slightest con- nection, so far as mortal eyes can see.
