To-day's Short Story.)
To-day's Short Story.) AN IRON CLUTCH. I My horse stood saddled at the doorway of I the "hotel" at Pinckney mining oamp. I ,mas about to start away to join the railway Purveying party in the field, and Colonel Bocfcl&od, our chief engineer, was giving me eame parting instroctio&s. « You'll find a bridle path most of the way," he said, with, some bits of rough- Ltoiag into the canons. Ton can take my Winchester along, and you may get a bear- it tie doesn't get you." EeTore handing the rifle to me be tried its look. "The trigger pulls too easily," he said; H 1ihe tnmfakler of the look needs filing. Wait a fow minutes, and I'll fix it right here." A small fife and a screwdriver were neces- sary tools in our surveying outfit. But to- day no file could the colonel find with all his searching. On the hotel platform was heaped the hunting outfit of a long-haired mountaineer, in town lor supplies. Beside the blankets, ,oooking -utensils, and trapping gear lay an object somewhat unusual in Colorado—<a large iron bear-trap. Two or three loungers 'Were examining it with listless curiosity and guessing at its weight. One of them, after lifting it, offered to bet that it weighed over seventy-five pounds. Bearing down with all my weight and strength upon one of the heavy springs, I could hardly start it. "You'll never set it that way," said the trapper. "It takes a lever for that job. l'U show you how." By means of a handspike aid the efforts of eeveral men, the springs were foroed down, and the trap set. One of the men then dropped the end of the wooden bar upon the pan," releasing the notched catch that held the trap open; there was something terrify- ing in the ferocious upward jump of the machine as the iron jaws sprang together, cutting deep into the ash handspike, jarring it from the hand that held it. At noon I had travelled fifteen of the twenty-fiv-3 miles I bad to go, and on the slope of a tiunly-woodcd declivity, backed by steep ledges. I stopped to eat- my lunch. Xemoving the saddle, I picketed my horse on an opfa plot to graze, and threw myself down to rest an hour in the shade of a. clump of pines. At a point near by, in the cliff behind me. thick dhappaxall partly screened thollo front of a rooky glen darkened by overhanging prnes. Obscure paths converging toward the recess rmSroated that them might be a. spring not far away. Picking up my rifle, I started to inwestigaita the place. Near the glen mouth some dry leaves and grass lay in the way, upon which unheedingly 1 stepped. Something hard gave way beneath my foot, followed by a powerful, upward impulse that shocked aind nearly upset me; an iron unyielding clutch was upon my ankle—and I looked down iu consterna- tion to find myself held fast in the jaws of I au immense bear-trap. Only the stout boot leg and heavy trousers had saved my ankle from breaking, and, as it was. the presanro was so rigid and intense as to cause me great paia* Kneeling, I pressed with, all weight upon one of the springs without effect. My foot was held in such a position that it was impossible for me to set it upon the ground. A strong chain led from the trap about six I feet to the "clog," a. log with a hole in one end, through which the chain, passed, and was fastened by a giant iron padlock. I was away from the pata of travel, and my only hope of rescue was that a hunter or prospector might pass that way. I^lookad (town at those detaining jaws of tron, and thought if only I could cut them asunder. If only I had a file? Hastily I started upward. In nervously shifting my position on the oil-cloth or "slicker" spread upon the ground something ball pricked me sharply. Had a rattle-snake or tarantula set its fangs into me to make the horrors of my situation complete? No, for as I lifted the coat no snake or big spider appeared beneath it; but I saw in the breast pocket some papers, which were not mine. A glance at the address ou an envelope informed me of the fact, until then unsuspected, that I my chief and I had shifted overcoats at Pinckney's. A pointed iron sticking through the cloth -was what had pricked me. Tracing it to the side pocket, my heart gave a. great bound as I took from that receptacle a small triangular file, the identical one that the colonel had missed that morning. Never was work more willing than, mine as I filed my way toward liberty. The hard steel yielded slowly; my position was cramped; but I felt neither weariness nor pain, and halted only to try the stiffness of the spring, and then fall to work the harder to deepen the tiny furrow that the file was making. The sparing gradually became pliable, until at last I was able to bend and tie it down, flat with a. piece of stout buck- skin thong borrowed from my saddle equip- ment. The trap still held me, but the pressure on my leg was considerably relieved. Straightendttg DP for a moment's rest, I noticed that my horse had run' to" the end of his rope. and was staring back down the valley as if in great fear. Looking in the direction of his gaze. I saw a grizzly bear conning across an open space in the park towards me. With his heavy, lumbertng gait, he was covering ground fast. Half-way across the valley, the bear, appearing to see the horse for the first time, paused, as if considering what to do; then turned his — course toward the frightened steed. His shambling trot quickened into a gallop as he came near the horse. Even in my own great peril my one feeling for the moment was of pity to see the impending fate of the poor tethered beast whidh, trembling, seemed hopelessly to await its fate. The boar wag within thirty yards of his intended prey, when the horse roused himself to an extraor- dinary effort to escape. With a mad leap it pulled the picket-pin from the ground, and, with. pin. and rope flying in the air, went up the valley at great speed. The grizzly followed him det-ermi-nedly a little way, then slowed down and stopped as if he felt he had no business in an open race with a horse. He gazed after him and then, with the appearance of being mucih out of temper, turned, and once again came toward me. At the edge of the tree clump the creature paused and loolied at me. There was still a glimmer of uncertainty. The grizzly bear. savage as he is. usually avoids any human being unless oornered and provoked to an encounter. It is different in the case of a she bear with cubs, or when the animal is pressed by unusual hunger. There was a chance that this one. on coming to close quarters. might yet retire or pass me at one side. I was not left long in doubt. With hair bristling with anger, he lowered his head and sent forth that terrible snarling 'roar of the grizzly which seems the vocal embodiment of aroused strength and savage vindictiveness. My rifle, now at my shoulder, was aimed steadily between the beast's eyes. I had decided that the bear's next movement of advance should be my signal for opening fire. As he surged towards me 2.t thirty yards a.way I pulled the trigger, and, throw- ing back the lever rapidly, but steadily, fired again and again at the huge brute rushing upon me with. gathering speed. The nearest thing in. his way was the saddle lying between us, and, seizing it with teeth and olaws, he rose on his hind legs a.nd tore and bit at it with blind fury. His eyes once more fixed on mine, he was in the very act of dropping the saddle when, with the muzzle of my rifle wit-bin a foot of his foaming mouth and tusk- liko teeth, I pulled the trigger. The spouting flame, the crashing report and smoke came between us. Something struck my breast, knocking me backward and senseless, and for a time I knew no more. ¡ Whether only seconds or hours had passed I had no idea, as I opened my eyes a,nd realised with a sort of unconcerned amaze- ment—for I was past fear and hope alike- that I was still alive. Where was the bear? The bear was lying on his side dead, ae he had fallen, the blood flowing from his mouth through which my last bullet had penetrated the brain. The saddle, torn and bitten, had received the fury of his instinctive death grapple, saving me from the destroying teeth and claws. Chained to the spot an unwilling, watcher beside my prostrate enemy, with rifle loaded and cocked at hand, lest the indomitable foe revive, I fell once more desperately to work with the file on my massive fetters. It was merely a. matter of work and time -4qiloome and wearisome it was-to set my- self free. I* cut and pulled away the boot, relieviniz my ankle, lacerated and deeply indented with livid marks made by the relentless iron grasp. By degrees the circula- tion in my leg was restored, and I could endure to touch the injured foot to the ground. Limping up the valley I presently saw my horse held by his rope, which had caught in a clomp of mountain cedar. I led him back to the saddle, which I put upon him, and then set out fairly on my way. Miles a/way a fire showed in the dusk, and guided me to a freighting outfit, in camp, on its way with I supplies to the surveying party I was to join.

A Highlander who lived not very far from Balmoral sent two beautiful collies as a present to Queen Victoria, who knew him well, having oft^n driven past his house and once or twice stopped to speak to him and his wife. The Queen not only accepted the collies, but told the donor that if he ever found his wa<y to London v hen she was at Windsor he was to caJl and see her. As it happened, he had to go to London soon after. So he went to Windsor and asked for John Brown, who had heard what the Queen said to him. John Brown let the Queen know thaA her Highland friend was in wait- ing, and was told to bring him in. John took catre to post the visitor in the etiquette to be observed, told him not to speglk until the Queen spoke to him, and to be sure always to say "madam." The Highlander was then ushered into the presence of the Queen, who received him kindly and asked about his family. But when she began to praise the collies a.nd say wha.t favourites they bad become and how kind it was of him to send them to her, the delighted mountaineer forgot his instructions. "Toots, wumman he exclaimed. What's twa collies at ween you and me!"

Sat Up in the CoffinI r --…
Sat Up in the Coffin I r SWEETHEART BELIEVED TO BE IN I A TRANCE LOVER SHOOTS HIMSELF. 1 A remarkable tragedy is reported from near Szalagysombyo. The daugrhter of a prosperous farmer, named Sviscnzadi, was engaged to Franz Kasiniski, a shopkeeper, and preparations were made for their marriage. The girl, however, was terrorised by a former suitor, who repeatedly threatened to kill her unless she broke off the engagement. The rejected suitor, whose name ds not stated, sent Mlle. Sviscnwidi threatening letters, and on one occasion he shot at her as she was walking along a. country road with her lover. Mile. Svisenzadi's health broke down under the strain, and she was afraid to leave the house. Her father secured the arrest and i imprisonment of the rejected suitor, but. on his release renewed his threats. XUe. Sviscnzadi was Seized with a Fainting Fit one day last week, wbdah apparently termi- nated in her death. The doctor who was called could find no sign of life, and certified that dearth, had been caused by syncope. The lover, Kasininski, who was in Buda- pest purchasing goods when Mile. Sviscn- zadi a death was reported, returned at once to Szilagysombyo. He was overwhelmed with grief. On being admitted to the room wherein the body lay, he fell on his knees beside the corpse and gave way to such a.n extravagant outburst of sorrow that 'the, members of the family, who were in an Idjoin- j mg room, feared that he had become insane. Then tho distracted man took revolver | from his ooat pocket and laid it on a table beside the coffin. He kissed the lips of the oorpee, and then wrote a note, in which he said that he would not be separated from his sweetheart "even in death." Thereupon, holding the dead girl's hand in his left hand. he nicked un the revolver nnd Shot Himself Through the Head The next moment the supposed corpse sait up in th-c coffin with a shriek. The members of the family, who rushed to the door of the death chamber on hearing the shot, fled again in terror at the sight of the young woman in her shroud, waving her arms wildly a.nd trying to get out of the coffin. It waa not until some time later (says the Daily Exprtess") that an-y one dared re- enter the house. Then it was found that Mile. Sviscnzadi had been in a state of catalepsy. She declared that she was fully conscious of a.U that transpired, but was unable to either move or speak. She suffered indesc-ribahly at the thought of being buried alive. She oven realised that her lover was about to commit suicide, but was powerless to ma-ke any sign until the shot was fired, when the shock suddenly restored her power of speech. Mile. Sviscnzadi then collapsed from the shock of her terrible experience, and is now criticaJly ill.
HOW PHYSICIANS DIE. *I
HOW PHYSICIANS DIE. I There can be but one result, says the "Family Doctor," where men toil ceaselessly, giving little or no attention to the care of their bodies, and that result is physical bank- ruptcy at an early date. The writer's attention has been. startangly drawn to this fact by a series of fatalities among his professional friends and acquaint- ances. Within a oomfparattively few monrths seven well-known physicians, noted for their cease- less toil and apparently tireless energy, have died. In each case the cause of death was to be found in the kidneys. I

EMPEROR AND" VETERANS." I The Emperor Franz Jbeef bad un unusual adventure while tacking his customary walk in the gardens of the Hofburg yesterday' His Majesty was accosted by two men, who pretended to be veterans of the campaign of 13^8. One of them asked for the Emperor's pencil, with which he wrote an, order for £48. The Emperor then signed it, and sent a servant to fetcih the money. The "veterans" grew nervous, however, and suddenly bolted out of the gardens. The Emperor, who was greatly upset by the inc i- dent, called an aide-de-samp, who secured the arrest of the two men shortly afterwards. They proved to be well-lcnown rogues, aged respectively 32 and 47 years, wearing false beards.

During the recent Natal, rebellion he served as a sergeant in the Durban Infantry.

TAKE TO-DAY Deakin's • • Blaenavon, Moca. Gentlemen,—It gives me much pleasure in adding my testimony to Deakin's Miraculous Chest. Cough, and Lung Healer. Its healing and curative effects on diseases of the Chest and Lungs'are truly miraculous. I suffered violently from Asthma and Bronchitis; the attacks were so severe that I had to be pillowed up in a. chair night and day. I hardly got any rest from coughing and wheezing most of my life, and oftentimes could not go to my bed and have proper rest owing to difficulty of breathing and tightness. Fortunately, since taking Deakin's Miraculous Oh est, Oough, and Lung Healer, I am quite a different person and much stronger in health, and can follow my occu- pation. comparatively speaking, without amy lost time. Believe me, yours very truly, T. H. NEEDHAM. Collier's Testimony. Liohfteld., Stafford. When I first came to England, having resided for many years in a warm climate, I was seized with a violent cough, which almost deprived me of the use of my voice, but after taking a bottle and a half of Deakin's Chest, Cough, and Lung Healer, I was perfectly restored. Its effect upon my voice appeared quite miraculous. I have the greatest confidence and pleasure in recom- mending it to all suffering from Hoarseness, Cough, and; Loss of Voice. ARTHUR J.

Doel, of Field View (off Wa.tson-road), Llandaff Nortih, near Cardiff, writes ;_H On my way to business one morning I slipped cm a very rough piece of road and sprained my amMe. I did not take any notice of it for a day or two, bat a.t last it got eo painful that I could scarcely stand on it. I went to the doctor, and rulbibed in one box of his ointment, but. it did not do me any good. I got a obomd, amd kept on ruiWbitng and robbing, bnt it did not seem to get amy better. One ditty I met a friend who had, found Zam-Buk beneficial for a. similar injury, amd I got a. box. Zam-Buk soon reduced the pain and swelling, and before I had used the first box my ainkle was quite strong and well again." Mtb. Jenkins, of Pare Farm, Senghenith, CaacUff, writes: Juit a line to let yon know Zam-Buk bas perfectly cured the BOTes on my little boy's back. There is nothtng to equal Zam-Buk. A few days ago I had a. great pain in my face. I ruibbed Zam-Buk on, let it stay on for a while, amd then bathed my face in warm water. I have never felt any Paiim since. I feel I cannot praiise Zam-Buk too highly. My other boy sprained his ankle on Sunday, so I rubbed Zam-Buk in, and in two dalys he could wk amd put his shoe on." Mr. J. Jones, Ma«ssycwmmer, near Cardiff, writesHavirrg suffered for some considerable time from the effects of s-welli-ng of the toe joints of my left foot, I decided to for some Zaan-Buk, amd I have received the greatest benefit, oomfosfc, amd consolation. I must say that a little tame after ita flrst application I felt relief from the severest pains that I had suffered since the begimmnff of the winter. To-day I am practically relieved of the suffering." Carmarthen & Rhondda Testimony Mr. D. Davis, of Ffynonbedr, near Mydrim, St. Clears, Carmarthen, mid: One day, while following my employment, a 32ft. rail dropped right across my foot, causing me fearful agony. A great swelling arose, and the place grew very inflamed amd painful. I was practically lamed, amd suffered from it for eleven weeks, not being a.ble to follow my employment, amd beams unable to bear any weight whatso- ever. Nothing I tried seemed to be able to make the- braises heal. They simply festered, amd grew more and more inflamed. I was juist wondering how lonig I was going to suffer with the injury, as nothing seemed to do it the least bit of good, when I waa told about Zam-Buk. I was induced to give this wonderful heaai-ng balm a. trial, and the first result I noticed was how splendidly it cleared the wound of all inflamed matter. It soothed the pain and reduced the swelling. I applied Za,m-Buk regularly for three weeks, amd the severe injury which had resisted an other methods of treatment was now completely healed." lirti. D. Davies, of 16, Club-row. Tstrad, Bihondida, writes My child was about a year old when sores began to break out on her thighs, amd at last spread all over her body. She sc ratched the pilaces till they Med, amd when we took her to the doctor's he told us it was ecaema. She was then a. big child, but the disease brought her down to skin and bone, and we thought tbait we should lose her. We did, not know what a night's rest was for weeks. So soon as we started to uae Zam- Buk. however, there was a change in her. We continued the applications until the Bores beg-on. to disappear, and the child got fcuite better."
