CfANDMOTI)131i'S PANTHER.
Oso winter a good many yews ago,
wile', featurelather Feseett Wes a small
girl, it begat? lo fio tole from house to
house in the little village, where she lived
that some tierce wild uuinull wes prowl-
ing about.
No one bad seen 14, and no one knew
what it was, The nest news cum° front
Dara? !lollies, who I1ad been roused from
a sound sleep one loris night by a great,
bellowing and stamping among the
cettlo in his barn and a loud siiuealing
among the pigs. tie slipped into his
clothes as soon as he could, and hurried
out. ire found all the animals very much
arched anti brightened, and ono pig, In
the pen under the barn, was iiudly cut ar
scrau:hed about the heed. There was
nothing deo to be seen, and 05 the.
ground was bare and frozen hard, no
tracks could bl. found,
fax a week (mother neighbor, Mr. Peleg
Gibson, came home from his wood-lol
one evening much excited and very pale.
Ida had berm cutting cord -wood all day,
and had not started far home Lill nearly
dark. A part of the way led through a
swamp where there was a thick growth
of cedar, so that you could see only a
little way on either side. While he was
going through this swamp, Mr. Gilson
heard. a stick snap, and by and by an-
other; and turn he heard soft footfalls,
and became sure that something was fol-
lowing film. Ho did not dans run, but
walked. as fast as 110 could; and whatever
el was that was following him kept up
the chase until he came out into the
open orchard just, back of the house.
By this time the little settlement began
to be much disturbed, and everybody
talked of the strange animal. Some
thought it was a wolf; others said it was
probably a bear; 51111 others believed it
was only a big wildcat or lynx. But
there were some who felt sure it was a
penther.
Then came the first big snow, which
settled down lo good sleighing. The
roads were rough and poor, and every
winter, as soon as it got cold enough to
make good thick ice, the people began
lC use the Kennebec River to travel on,
because a sleigh would run much more
easily on the smooth, level ice than on
the. "bumpily" roads.
One evening, a few days after the big
snow, the whole village was stirred by.
the attempt of some animal to attack
Gideon Lang's colt right in the barn-
yard, The men wero milking when they
heard the colt scream. They rushed out
just in time to see a big, shadowy thing
leap over the bars at ono jump and dis-
appear in the darkness. They got lan-
terns and returned, and soon found the
tracks in the snow -great tracks twelve
or fifteen feet apart. There was no
longer any doubt that the beast was a
panther, and a big one, too.
The next day it was decided to have a
grand bunt. All the men in the settle-
ment, and all the dogs, were to gather
at noon and chase the .panther until he
should be caught. There was great ex-
citement among the children, and Grand-
mother Fos&elt, who was then nine years
old, helped put up a Iuncboon for her
father and brothers, because they
thought they might have to be away alt
night. And she was out with the ethers
at noon to see tho hunters start.
But that very afternoon word came
up -river that grandmother's married &s-
tet, who lived twelve miles below, was
sick, and wanted Polly -that wes grand
mother -to come at once. She had sent
Nathan, her husband, to bring her in
the sleigb.
It was nearly dusk before they could
make the stat; but at last old Canada,
the faithful little block mare, picked her
way carefully down rite steep, icy hill,
and came out on the smooth, broad sur-
face of the frozen river, with Polly snug-
ly wrapped in a red shawl and warn
bu fiaro-robe.
Her first thought when site found she
was to - go had been of the panther.
What if he should gel, away from the
men and the dogs, and follow her 1
Out On the river it seemed very still
and Scary, Once site heard dogs bark-
ing away off somewhere down -river, Sind
that made her think still more of the
panther. The moon was small and
gave only a little light, and the road,
which followed close to the high bank,
lay almost wholly in shadow.
Every time a tree or a limb cracked in
the frost Polly's heart beat so hard she
oeuld hardly swallow, and in every black
stump sho that/gen she
could sone great,
crouchinC beast ready to spring upon
bee. When she told Nathan hove scared
she was, be only laughed and said he
"guessed there wasn't' much danger."
If he bad only said thele wasn't any
danger, 0014-saicl it as 11 he know 1 13u1
11e did not. Ito just said "much danger."
The journey was nearly half over
when the sleigh reached a clerk wooded'
point which ran out into the river. Net
as they turned this paint Polly chanced
to look back upon the way they had
come. There wpm only i1 moment before
the point shut all (ho view, but in that
moment Polly suddenly saw a great
bine* shape appear from a dnrlc shadow,
flash 0cr'0sa a p5Lah of moonlight, and
come tearing along the read in great
leaps.
' With one wild scream Polly cried,
"]-leis coming 1 Hes coming 1 The pan -
the? is coming 1 1 -le is right hero behind
irs 1 0h, quick, quick 1" and grabbed
Ncttinn's arm.
Ile turned his head, and almost with-
out, knowing it, bit old Canada a sharp
crack with the whip, and as 110 looked
Uncle, the black shapo 05100 mend the
point only a few yards behind the
sleigh.
Polly was now so frightened that sho
eetricl not even scream; batt just ns she
thought, elm could almost feel the pen,
titers awful teeth, the black shape came
tip oval with 014. Canada's head, and
looping sidewise, let out a loud hark -a
joyous "Waw 1 wow I wow 1" of Iriondli-
nine and w•doomo.

Ties is a result of the terrible accident
in the French battleship Jena, at Toulon,

In order to assist it in its researches,
the Admiralty has placed the Colossus at
