She wanted to spend the night with j some friends, she said, and if lie didn't oblige her sho should have to wait twen- - ty-fo- hours for a train. j The conductor said he hated to be dis-- , obliging to a lady, but he didn't like to ' delay tho other passengers.

Tlte wife tied a shawl over her head, picked up and examined tho gun and walked off to her station with never a ' word. 1 went over to the sited, took the crowd, and in a few minutes all were assembled. Then 1 gleaned from their whispers that John Hnngerford was to be whipped to death, and that his wife was to receivo less merciful treatment. They even planned to tire the house, and wipe out the whole family root and branch. At a, signal all advanced, and j five or six men jumped against the door, It was barred. Then a voice called: - "Open, John Hnngerford! We've como for ye, and wo are bound to have ye!" The words were answered by a shot from thn house, and then the shotgun roared from tho smoke house. I tho muzdo of my revolver and fired sis shots over the confused and flying crowd, and next moment all who could get away were gone. Hnngerford came out with h lantern, and by its light we saw two d'd men und three wounded. The wife had also shot to kill. One of tint wounded was past speaking. Tho other two, who were strangers to the family and belonged in a distant village, begged for nn-re- and promised all sorts of reformation in the future. In tho morning, as I was ready to go! on, there were three dead outside the door and the two wounded were groan- - ing with pain. The nearest doctor was !ivo miles away, und 1 was to stop and leave word for him. As I left the house Mrs. Hnngerford said: "Thankee, stranger, and we won't for- - j git it." j And the husband said: i "It wasn't jour fuss, of course, but what a shame to have wasted all them bullets!

Tho family consisted of father, mother and three small children, and there were .many comforts about tho place. Hun-purfor- d was an industrious, hard work-ing man, and cno of umisnal intelligence for a mountaineer, and tha wife and children were far above the average. They extended a right royal welcome, and we had been vi.uting away for two hours when a woman rode up on a mule. The beast was badly blown and wet with perspiration, and the woman must have come with important news. Now was develojied a trait peculiar to all the southern mountaineers. They aro game to a man and woman. They aro the coolest people in the face of danger one ever saw. "Howdy, John?" nueried the woman as she drew rein at the door, and as Mrs. Hungerlord appeared she aided. "And lmwdj, M.iry?" Both answered that they were well, and John inqitai'd: "How aro all you'uns, Sarah?" "All able to dig. thankee, John." "Corn an' tutors turnin' out well?" "Keckon they be, what little we've got, but barks and roots pays better. Chillii-- g any this fall, Mary?" "Not a bit, Sarah." "Haven't heard from them'tms, I reckon?" queried Ilung.-rfor- after u long pauro, during which the woman tried to size me up. "ilebbe. Who nutv ho'nn bsr" bhe was out of sight 1 asked: "Is it trouble?" "Stranger," replied Hnngerford, as he pulled a twig off a bush and bit at it, "I'vo been warned away!" "How why?" "Took sides with the Oldhams against j the Bassetts, and tho Basset ts have warned mo to leave." j "And as you have refused to go they aro coming to t ike yon out and switch you?" "Kxactly-- if they kin!" " Kw are they coming j "I reckon." "And you?" "I shed be ready." We sat in silence for a moment. 1 looked up at Mrs. Hnngerford, but she was sewing; away find trotting her foot as placidly as if danger was at the other end of the world. The children soon began a gamo of tag, and the husband softly whistled as ho switched the twig over tha ground. "Great heavens! but you take it cool-ly," I exclaimed as I noted everything. "Stranger," answered Hungerford as he turned to me, "1 need somebody to back with mo t. This ain't your fuss. You don't know tho Oldhams from the Bassetts.- 'Deed yon may have stayed with an Oldham last night. Yon don't want to mix in, and yet" "I don't want to kill or bo killed, but can't I help you some other way?" "You kin. Ile'nu is all right, Mary, I knew he'un was.'" "Glad on't," she briefly replied, not even looking up from her knitting.

"All sound asleep," whispered one. "Wo are dead shore of him," added a second. "There's , le no let up, boys!" cau-tioned a third. "We must switch him till ho gives in. We've had enotv'h fooling."

The first impression on the senses is made by a savory, stimulating perfume, which is said to be calculated to convince the most jaded reveler that lie was mistaken in tho miserable supposition that he "couldn't eat anything." The second assault on his appetite is made through the eye, which gradually discerns that ' it isn't simply a chicken hash which in-vites, but a glorified medley of clams, peppers and hashed chicken. The third result of contact with this new plat is effected through tho sense of touch, and taste alone does it justice.

A TrarMeiM Street Car. An exhibition run of the "carette,' a diminutive street car without a track, which has been in use in Chicago for several weeks, was given the other after-noon. Tho "carette" is light and easy in motion, and no jolting or discomfort was felt in riding in it along the part cobble-stone paving of Chestnut street. It can-not run on the ordinary street car track, the distance between the. wheels being greater than tho car track width. It avoids delays or blockades, arid stops at the curb to receive or discharge passen-gers. It seats twenty persons, is drawn by two horses and litis a conductor and a driver. It is said to be very popular in Chicago among ladies and children. Philadelphia Times. I'i-- st Settlers of Virginia.. Dr. Stephen B.
