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.' "— New York Times. Aa Staple ai Coffee.

JANUARY 30, M9Sf. 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 Courier. The Oldest Voter.
