A PERILOUS VOYAGE.
A YOUNG WESTERN HUNTER'S
THRILLING EXPERIENCE.
Caught by a "Water Witch" and Carried
Down Stream, Now Sinking-, Now Rising,
Until at Last a Friendly Root Inter
fered to Rescue Him from Death.
"I had an encounter with a 'water
witch' when I was in Utah," remarked
one of a party of young men who were
seated round a small table the other
evening (no matter where), telling tales
of adventure by land and sea. In re
sponse to the general demand the speak
er told this story:
"In the month of July, a few years
ago, I camped with a party from Salt
Lake City on the banks of the Provo
river. The Provo, as we used to say at
school, rises amid the snow clad peaks
of the Wasatch mountains, flows south,
and empties into Utah lake. 'The track
of a deer discovered one morning within
the borders of the camp caused some
excitement among us.
"The next day Mr. P. and I shouldered
our guns and went out to shoot the in
vader. We crossed the river by a bridge
a few miles below camp and climbed a
bold mountain wall. At the end of a
long tramp I found myself on the oppo
site bank of the river about half a mile
above our camp. I was alone, having
separated from my companion early in
the hunt. I was in a disgusted frame of
mind. I had started the deer, had an
excellent shot and a touch of buck fever,
although the deer was a doe, and had
missed.
"The way I had come looked long and
hard, and I resolved to ford the river.
At the time it was at full bank, deep and
swift. I crossed one arm of the stream
to a large- island without difficulty, the
water not coining above my knees. From
this island the other branch of the river
looked more uncertain. The water was
certainly waist deep and the current was
swift. I noticed that at the lower end
of the island, where the two currents
joined again, the water foamed up three
or four feet high, as if breaking over a
rock. On each bank there was a dense
growth of willow bushes, with long
drooping stems which reached out over
the river, some of the tips touching the
water.
A TERRIBLE VOYAGE.
"Though no hunter I am a good swim
mer, and have always been accustomed
to the water from boyhood. The thought
of any personal danger in crossing a
stream not more than twenty yards wide
never entered my mind. I thought I
might possibly drop the gun, and was
quite certain to ruin a box of cartridges
I carried in my pocket. These consid
erations alone made me give any atten
tion to tho lay of the land and the course
of the currents.
"I entered the water and advanced to
ward the opposite bank, holding the gun
in one hand and high. It was deeper
than I thought, the water coming quite
up to my shoulders. I was about to reach
for one of the bending willow stems
when I made a misstep and was swept
off my feet, the current carrying me
awiftly to the center of the foaming water
at the end of the island, where I went to
the bottom like lead. I came up far
enough to see daylight shining through
the water when I went to the bottom
again. I still had the gun. As I came
np the second time I began to spin around
like a top.
"Then I realized that I was in trouble.
I dropped the gun, and with the aid of
both arms brought my head above water
and clear of the whirlpool. I was gasp
ing for breath when I got to the air, but
I bad not taken in any water, and al
though much exhausted from the pound
ing 1 had received by the fierce current
I was congratulating myself on my
escape when, floating easy with both
arms free, I felt myself slowly but surely
going under again.
"Then something like terror seized me.
I thought my last moments of life had
come. Luckily there came with this
thought the resolve of a desperate man
to die by inches and to cling to life until
the last gasp. There was a great im
pulse at first to cry out for help. I could
hear the 'clip' of a Mormon farmer's bay
rake in the field on the other side of the
river and his chirp to his horse. But I
knew in that awful moment that the call
for help was only to waste the breath I
had resolved to husband.
THE WATER WITCH.
"1 felt my strength going as you can
feel a pair of reins slip through your
hands. Every few feet, slowly but
surely, 1 would go under. Then, by
desperate exertions with my arms, 1
would bring my nose and mouth above
the water again. The river swept me
under a bunch of those long, graceful
willow branches, but again I was steady
enough not to catch hold of them. I
knew that to do so was to waste my ef
forts for life in vain. They were slip
pery, they were small, and would not
hold me.
"At such a time one's thoughts travel
faster than light. I have heard it said
that drowning is an easy death to die.
It did not present that phase to me. In
going 100 yards, in spite of every effort
on my part, I went under several times,
but never to the bottom.
"As I was shot along out of reach of
the willows I .saw an old log lying half
on the bank and half in the water. My
hopes rose again and I thought I should
certainly save myself there. As I came
to it I went under again and the current
swept me up against it full length. 1
tried to grasp it, but it was slimy and I
could not hold to it, and I pushed my
self free from it. The current made a
bend around a little point there, and as
I rounded it not six feet before me a
willow root as thick as my wrist elbowed
out over the water directly in my path
and I caught it with both hands.
"I doubt if even then I could have
drawn myself out, 1 was so nearly used
np; but as my legs straightened out be
fore the force of the current my feet
struck against another root. I caught
my wind in a few minutes and then
crawled up on the bank. I was safe out
of the embrace of the 'water witch.' "—

Mrs. Chanter and Her Critics.
There is something distressing in tho
maliciousness with which some news
paper writers hound Mrs. Amelie Rives
Chanler. The most absurd stories have
been printed about her. Hardly one of
these has the slightest foundation in fact.
Mrs. Chanler is an unusual genius, but
it is unfair, not to say unmanly, to mag
nify simple girlish pranks into absurd,
serious charges.
It will gratify all my readers to know
that a note to me from the gifted au
thoress brings the news that her health
is excellent. She walks and rides with
her husband about the country roads
of Albemarle county, Va., and when
she tires of writing, 6he spends an hour
or two in painting. But most of her
time is spent in writing.—Foster Coates
in Hew York Mail and Express.
A Lapse of Memory
"Humph! It's very clear that lam
not in the proper vein today," growled
Mr. Scribbler as he threw aside his pen
and substituted a stumpy lead pencil in
its place.
"What's the matter now?" asked Mrs.
Scribbler as she left her ironing to come
to his assistance.
"It's only that Christmas story I
started to write for The Echo. I can't
for the life of me get beyond the open
ing sentence."
"Let me see what you have written,"
said his wife as she looked over his
shoulder and read from "the paper on the
table: " 'It was bitter cold. The poor
little match girl on the corner shivered
in the biting blast.' Why, that's all
right. Go on," she said encouragingly.
"But I can't seem to remember what
comes next," remonstrated Mr. Scrib
bler.
"Let me see! Urn—'in' the biting
blast'—and—and drawing her ragged
shawl about her slender, frozen body,
timidly offered her scanty stock of wares
to the passers by."
"That's it!" exclaimed the author as
he drew his wife to him and kissed her
tenderly. "What a help yoti are, dear.
I suppose I have written that thing hun
dreds of times, and yet I had utterly for
gotten it."—Life.
A Freak of Science.
An English chemist who was at a
Washington hotel exhibited a little mi
crophone he had made which would
render audible the footsteps of a fly. It
was only a small affair and consisted of
a box with a sheet of thin straw paper
stretched over the upper side. By means
of a little electrical device, consisting of
two carbon disks, a carbon pencil and a
weak battery, the sheet of paper over
the top of the box was caused to produce
vibrations when a fly walked over it
strong enough to react energetically on
an ordinary telephone transmitter when
held close to the latter.—Washington
Post.
The Postage Stamp Nearly 58 Years Old.
The postage stamp will be fifty-two
years old in May. Its inventor was a
printer, James Chalmers, of Dundee,
Scotland, who died in 1853. England,
fifty-two years ago, introduced the new
system of prepaying letter postage, and
according to a decree of Dec. 21,1839,
issued the first stamps, which were to be
put before the public on May 6 of the
following year. A year later they were
introduced in the United States and
Switzerland, and within three years had
become common in Bavaria, Belgium
and France. —Charleston News and

The I/and of Bloodless Revolutions.
The recent revolution in Brazil is an
other instance of the peculiar character
of the government changes in the great
South American republic, and the
strange thing about them is that revo
lution follows revolution always with
out bloodshed. The late Dom Pedro ab
dicated and went into banishment with
out war; the president who succeeded
him, and who undertook unsuccessfully
to play the part of dictator, yielded to
indignant popular opinion without shed
ding blood, and now another govern
ment has be>?.n set up, and so far the in
ternal troubles have caused no blood
shed.—Forum.

SERMONS IN A LINE.
Experience of People Who Stood Near
Death.
There are hundreds of people living
williiu a radius of a few hundred miles
of San Francisco who have publicly pro
claimed that they owe their lives to the
skill of the famous Cosmopolitan Dis
pensary of San Francisco. Their ex
perience should be a guide to others.
Death is not a pleasant visitor, and his
coming can, in many instances, be de
ferred by the exercise of a little ordinary
judgment. Let the experience of others
dictate how that judgment shall be exer
cised.
"I have been ailing for over two years,
suffering from general debility, and have
consulted many physi
cians during that time!
None seemed to benefit
me until I applied to the
Cosmopolitan Dispen
sary ten days ago, and
I already feel like a dif
ferent man. Strength;
of body and mind, buoy
ancy of spirits and ap
petite have returned,
and all feeling of weak-
ness has disappeared. " —Edwin Wigley,
649 Minna street, San Francisco.
"I walked on crutches for a year, and
after two weeks' treatment at the Cos
mopolitan Dispensary was able to walk
without them."—A. Astrog, Marin Co.,
near San Rafael, Cal.
"The four weeks' treatment at the
Cosmopolitan Dispensary did me more
good than the four years' treatment I
had from numerous doctors."—Mrs. A.
Fiehman, Tracy, San Joaquin Co., Cal.
" The Cosmopolitan Dispensary saved
my life."—W. J. Ray, Snmner, Cal.
"I shall always recommend them,
knowing them to be fair and honest in
all their dealings. "—Mrs. Judge Lloyd,
Berkeley, Cal.
" The Cosmopolitan Dispensary cured
me by mail treatment and made a new
man of me."—-W. E. Goodrich, College
City, Cal.
"I always recommend the Cosmopoli
tan Dispensary for the honorable way
they treated and cured me."—Antone
Stornes, Menlo Park, Cal.
"The Cosmopolitan Dispensary cured
me of Chronic Rheumatism when other
physicians said I could not be cured."—
Mrs. Rose Brown, Half Moon Bay, San
Mateo Co., Cal.
"I recommend all sufferers to them,
being certain they will receive skillful
and honorable treatment. " —John Sal
