I asked in MY turn. " half -pp -and case of smoked beef," Mid he. "1 was about to propose that we divide." " right," said I, roa,kiag room for him on the dusty board where I had eat cloivn to make nay dinner off that one can of peaelies. "That will give us each two coiu•ses instead of one." "Precisely. Shall we take ,the smok- • ed beef first ?" " With all Pan heart, and the sooner the better. have had nothing to eat to -day," I replied. " own ease," he replied. Cutting open the smoked beef can, he made a fair division of it on the board, for we had. no plates, He was a young xuan, rather tall, of light complexion and of good general appearance, save that his clothing was worn and dusty. We were Wayfarers on the road. near Kimberly, in the South African diamond diggings, where, It VIT evident, we had both. been unsuemssful venturers, We Were about six hundred miles frara Cape Town, the capital of Cape Colony. As he surveyed me, he said, "An American, I fancy 1" You are right, and you are an Eng- lishman. We are both a little down= oun luck, I guess." "Otherwise we should not be dining thus sumptuously. How do you like South Africa, Kimberly and diamond - digging t" " Da I look as if I liked Iti" "Hardly perhaps. May 1 ask if you have anything in view ?" "Only a long walk back to Cape Town, and a bare chance of working my passage home." " I have had in my mind a somewhat similar prospect," said my chance acquaintance, noting with interest my movements as 1 cut open the can -of peaches. " And I propose to start when we have finished this can of peaches," 1 observed. "It is a rawther stiff walk; but 1 yOu don't mind, ru bear you company." "Good; bat you will have little to gain from my society. I'm dead. broke, and say name is Loorais." , "1 regret to my that my own finan- cial condition can be described by that term better than any other. And my name, is Soley," We ate the peaches, divided and drank the juice in the ma, then got up and started to walk six hundred miles. - We had taken a hundred steps, per- haps, when we met a bullock teana, driven. by an Iriatanan. His wagon was loaded with eabbage-heads, and he was going into Kimberly. "How much for a ca,bbage to -day, Pat t" demanded my fellow -traveller, as be motioned to the driver to stop. " T'ree an' sixpence, sor. It's a shame to ax begorra, but me boss tould nee the price. Fain, in the ould counthry ye cud buy a dhrayloa,d of 'em for the money 1 But the throuble wid this eounthry is, there's nothing to ate in , "Who is your boss, Pat 2" "A murtherin' ould Dutchman livin' down on the Madder, sor.

An laim wid four sthrappin' sons, an them niver turnin' a hand, barren' it's to shrooke an' dhrink beer 1" Soley glanced inquiringly at me. I saw his meaning. . " What wages does he give?" "A crown a day, sor." "Do you think he would hire my friend. and me here, Pat?" " Bedad, then, I do! But long would you stop? Not long,for it's beast -like they live, an' GO mistake." To live lake a beast is better, perhaps, than not to live at all. As an alter- native; to a walk of six hundred miles, with no assared means of sustenance on the way, Soley and I journeyed. with Pat in his bullock cart that night to a typical Griqua -Land homestead of Dutch Boers, situated on a, kloof, or "run," near the Modder River. We were pre- pared to become •• agricultural laborers, and had an eye to eabbage-heads rather than to Koh-i-noors. The proprietor of the farm, Myn- heer Huycleeoper, and lois wife, Frau. Emma, two immensely corpulent per- sons, received us with slaw but kindly cordiality, offered us boiled mutton a.nd cabbage, and (mut us to lodge in an extremely warm loft of a low -roof- ed. building adjoining the untidy farm- house. Breakfast consisted of cold boiled mutton and. cabbage again. Through Pat we then reported. ourselves ready to go to work, but the HuordecOpers would not permit us to work during our first day with them. Pat told us, from them, that we were "to look round." So we, spent the day looking around, though we founcl nothing new what- ever to look at, and in feet it was not till the third day that vve succeeded in getting work. These Dutch colonists set no value upon time. The season was the South African spring. 1 think it was on the ninth day of September that we arrived, but our employer appeared to be in tto hurry to get m a, crop. The farm consisted of an unpietta- esque group of lovv buildings on a large tract of land along the bask of the /vfoa.- aer. SO arid was the soil that irrigation was. necessary to raise' a crop, and so covered with small stones that to Clear en acre Of there required the labor of a malt fot, a week. Through the kloof ran a rivulet—a considerable brook in the wpi, The water for th,. -.5 of the fields ounctuoted in ditches from a sue - Cession of eight ponds formed by dams „built anroal the kleet. Clearing land of stotte with a team of bullocks and a storte-boat, or drag, and drawing the storie to the kloof to strengthen the dam a was our Work for five, long, weary Weekar at five English shillings per day. TIIB Duriag that time we bad, learned somethmg of the possible profits of raisins, Wan In•oditets for the Kimber 1.Y 1.1.1.4ricet. As a result of his 'medita- tions Upon this matter. ane day at about this time Seley proposed to me that we should. meure a treat ot land, and make a venture at that sort our - :selves, Soley Was an intelligent, well-educated youug man, and. I had already learned that he tittlte walling to do Ills share of labor. If he was eoutent to take me as a partner, 1 telt satiSfied to takbime We laid our plans, and at length Made cear employm" an offer to take fifty acres is stony land, with privileges of satsr front the kleet, on shares, giving him one-third of what we raiSed. Out friend Pat tenductecl the new:4- etione for us, fer neither Soley nor my- self had yet learned any Dutch. Pat himself knew but little, and perhaps it was partly for this reason that several days were required to make the Huy - deco era comprehend our propositiou. ve tould him and tould. mud Pat, when we inquired as to the matter, "Clarie an* dare I've egslaplained. it en- toirdly, but iveny blessed hour he do be axin' me to egshplain it all over to fhim agia, He has it straight enough, but begorra it will take a month for it to sthrike into his ould head!" Meantime we waited. After we bad quite lmt all patience, ancl had conclud- ed. that the old Mynlieer was merely laughing at us, he and his frau compre- hended what we desired. They sent for us to come into the sitting -room. There, with Many broad smiles and hand -shakes, they had Pat tell us that we were not only entirely welcome to the land we had described and a, share"of the water, rent free, but that, if we de- sired to settle there as neighbors, they would. supply us with everything we wished. • This was kindness indeed! "Ye see," said. Pat, after we had. ex- pressed onr thanks, shaken hands man times more ancl gone out, "ye see it' not a bad. sort of paypel they are, i only ye can have patience wid 'em spind days an' days a-smoilin at ye, till it's virlid yell he gettire wid 'era. But they mane well," Soley and. I began to clear land o stone on the other side of the kleof tron. the Haydecoper farm, and. in the cours of a week had two acres ready fo breaking and planting to garden vege tables. We had already sent for seed of variou,s kinds to Cape Town, and although we were a little late in ou farming that season, what we plante thrived well. We used the brown, angular stone which covered. the ground to las a new dam in the kloof and for building 1 L Such a house! First of all we buil our chimney of ela,y and flat stones. I was a huge affair, neither round no square in contour, six feet at least i diameter, but not more than twelve fee high. We constructed a great ston fireplace, although fuel was somewha S0&306 in that vicinity. After buidling our chimney, we mad our home around it by carrying u stone, walls, laid in clay, to a height o eight feet on all sides of the chimney and then. thatching with bushes an coarse bay. It was a. primitive resdence, but soon took on the aspect o home to us. In November we. were beginning to irrigate our crop and. do our weeding ou. The weather was hot, and getting hotter daily, but it was not till toward Christmas that we realized what hot weather in South Africa really means. The ground was as dry as powder. The store of water in the kloof was shrinking away. We heard tidings of devastating flocks of locusts in the val- ley of the Vaal river, fifty miles away. Despite the heat, Soley declared that Christmas must not. pass without our having at least a better dinner than us- ual. ISOM a Boer living four miles farther down the Madder we secured a haunch of beef and. a brace of chickens, and cooked them, as well an a lot of young vegetables, in our stone oven out of doors. There WS'S not a person whom we could invite to share our dinner except our friend Pat, who alone of the people at Mynheer Huydeeoper's could. ap- preciate an Anglo-Saxon dinner. The afternoon was broiling hot. I am confident the mercury must have stood at a hundred degrees. Pat made his ap- pearance, complaining bitterly of the heat, a few minutea before sunset. As we sat down to table, just within our door, a great black bank of clouds rose in the west, darkening the garish land- scape, and casting a grateful shadow across the heated brown plains. We talked of snow and ice, skating and sleigh -rides. Pat, who was a County Rerry lad, pictured to us the wintry surges breaking outside Valentia. It was approaching dusk as we pro- ceeded with our dinner, ancl talked of other Christmases. I was sitting with my back to the door, carving the second Of the two chickens. Soley sat at ray right and Pat was oppositeme, next the fireplace. The solemn rumbling of thunder was heard at intervals. Suddenly, in the meddle of his ready talk, with fork half -raised to his mouth, Pat paused as 1 turnedto stone 1 A look of horror was on his tanned visage; his stubby hair actually rose on his fore- head, his mouth opened, he seemed to gasp. His eyes were directed past me— and 1 turned instantly. There in the open door stood an enor- mous lion 1 Lions and leopards occasionally caught the horses and cattle of the Dutch farm- ers; but we had not seen one before. The great brute was not ten feet dis- tant from the back of the bench on which T sat 1 Soles" had seen him, for as 1 tallied, he said ha a low tone, "It's a lion, Loomis 1 and snatching up the platter of beef, he dashed it at the beast's head. I jumpecl up, sending dishes and din- ner flying over Pat. At the same mo - anent something that felt like a bar of iron—it was the lion's outstretched paw as he sprang—struck me across the back mita projected me headlong against the rough deal floor of our inner room. My arms and head knocked the door open; and 1 fell througla the doorway half-stanted and feeling as if my back were broken. But I heard a horrible yell frorn Pat behind me; and soramh- h.ng forward, shovtd. the door back in place a,nd tried to hold it there. It was a cowardly ad, 1 fear, have never likesi to think of it.
