IGiiiSSs ."wsfsy 10 ct allow me to wait, and almost at once I broacLed the one subject which occupied all mr thoughts. Had he any recollection, I aiketl, ofaroung man, answering to the description 1 save, who boarded the train at Scuta a lew weeks ago? "Lcmme tninkl" said he. "Maybe I have now; vcs I guess I have. But if he's the ne I have in mind, Dan'l, my brakeman, 'II remember him sure, for they chummed B together considerable aurin tne journey. jau i, ne caueu, as uic juuu ujau cu- "tered the car, "d'vew remember a smartish younj: coon ridin with us five or six weeks o boarded at Scuta depot? Xou 'en him got sorter friendly, I think." "That's so," auswercd the brakemen. 'Ston:ish and rayther tall lull of color and rather dudish wore shin-wraps and tall collars a thoroughbred Johnny Bull, I reckon." "Teat's the man I mean," I exclaimed; and then I told them for what reason he had et off for Silverbow City, and how terribly anxious I had become at his unaccountable silence, and I begged of them to give me what help they could in traciur him. I noticed a I spoke that the men ex chanced significant glances, but when I had finished they seemed embarrassed, and neither volunteered any remark, though I could see that both of them had something In mind which they did not care to tell. So after a moment's silence I said point blank to the conductor: "What is it? You know something, I can see. Pray do tell me; I will thank you, even for bad news." "Wei!," said the conductor hesitatingly, "it ain't exactly bad news, but there's set tin somethin" mighty cur'ous about this thing. It's right here; your friend ain't the ' only man missing that went to Silverbow; i within the last few weeks there's been at least five or six." "'Seven," put in Daniel. "Seven is it, Dan'l? Seven men that we're aware of that's disappointed their friends lame as you're disappointed. How, it i ain't onusual in the&e onsettled paits for men to drop out, an' Silverbow's a hot place just now, anyhow, but yet I can't ( think it come to that, that they shoot new comers up there just lor lun: and the sort o men we've been chiefly asked about warn't the kind that looked "likely to raise a dust and get hurt. Tint's just "what fetches us, aiu't it, Dan'l? They're mostly all quiet, solitaiy men, that didn't seem to have no cc-.-dness in "era. Vou bet that's so," said Dan'l. "Why, 1 that last one him Irom way back there at menester, i.-remont county 1 guess Id gone any money on him lor a man to avoid trouble; and he left word back there he'd write faithful soon as he landed, and never ' a word did they hear. Then that other from Jlichona same kind exactly, they might have been brothers and he went awhile before, leaving a girl he was sweet on, and she'd been asking me everv time we pass through it I could hear anything about him. Mighty curious, you bet!" is'aturaliy the news did not tend to allay my fear, and it was with a trembling heart that I atked my sympathetic acquaintances whether they suspected any foul play. "Why, lor sure you can'scarcelvhelp it," the conductor replied. "Only there again I'm beat. It don't looK like plunder. Men going ,up alone prospecting to Silverbow don't, as a usual thing, carry much along nor when they come down either, lor that juaiier, ne auuea. -t.u it seems to me that there ain't a road agent goin' bnt could tell that with half an eye. Xo, these men must be detained, and I don't profess to know bow." "But suicly,"Iasked, "I'm not the first to go iu search, am I?" "So, indeed," replied the conductor. "We've lud two others alonsr latelirnn th same biz, en' 1 guess jou'll find one of 'em up in Siherbow now leastwise he ain't come doun this road. The other did-en' lie tell me he'd traced his man into Silver bow City, en' l'eond that not a single sign could he find." Bcrnm! this the men could tell me nothing-, though I could see they were both will ing lodo all in theirponer to help me. One !'al2, J"(5ce,, tileJ" were quite certain of, that v illiain kjs still in the train when they lc't it ;.t the end of their division. And here it must be explained that on these maivelous lrans-eoatineutal lines the journey is .jht uo into sections, or divisions tisthevaie calkd generally starting and ending at some "city" of more or less im portance in lact tending to make their terminals into "cities." Each section rep resents 10 or 12 hours of continuous travel, at the cud of which a longer stop than usuai 5s ni.uie and the entire personnel of thp train is changed, bringing a frush set of ol ficials on duty. The distance between Scuta and Silverbow embraced two or, rather, we ,raay say, three of these divisions, since bilverbow iueil lay some distance off from the main line, and was reached by a branch starting irom the citv of Whaycora, which was the terminal of a division on the trunk line. Thus it was that these men's certain knowledge of William's movements reached only lor less than half the distance between Scuta and Whaycom, but thev promised to do what they could to assist me beyond. In snite of mv distress, I began to be ttrangelv attracted hy the grotesqueness and magnificence of tiie scenerv. "We had left the grand monotony of the prairies be hind, and were now traversing the foothills and as our laboring engines climbed slowly over the hioken edges of the plateaux, the clear morning sun glowed upon peaks, tur rets and battlements striped with 'such strong rich tints as I had never seen on rocks before, while broad, warm shadows filled the deepvallevs which lav between. I went out upon the platform of the car, and gazed until the whole scene seemed a strange mirage and no reality. And soon we reached the crest and looked over a billowy land to where the Kocky Mountains pierced the horizon. And now we approached the end of the division, and drew up at the usual stran ding group of wooden sheds which lorm the new Westeru city, and here mv friends an nounced their departure. I thanted them for their kindness, and expressed a hope that I should find their successors as well disposed toward me. "There nowPjsaid the -onducior with a laugh, "I hope you will; but I tell you, you'll have to look mighty pert if you mean to keep square with Dick Quanton that's him that takes my place. lie's a mighty queer man, surely, and there's, cert'n things he's against, and one of 'em he's against is Englishmen. He talks that one ot his great-great-grandfathers was shot by the Britishers, and he hates all Jonnny Bulls for that though to tae it do seem a thin thing to hate a man lor. Auvhow, that's him; and he'll spot you for a johnny soon as ever he claps cye on you, and onle'ss he's in a mighty good humoryou'll find him a terror leastwise I'"l be "surprised if vou don't. But here's your tip his bark's worse'n his bite. You just keep peaceable, and like enough he'll come round and do what he can lor j ou belore you reach Whay com. Anyhow I'll give you a fair start with him, and alter that you must rustle." He was as good as his word, and when a little later the two came into the car to gether to check off the passengers, he suave ly told the oruiidable Dick, as they exam ined my ticket, on what errand I was bound, andaskeu lum if he had any recol lection oi a p-isenger answering to my de turiptiou of Willum having passsed along on his way to Silverbow. "What the h have I got to do with his business?" was Dick's violent comment, as beseemed to work himself into quite an un . necessary rage. "D'you expect me to keep reckoning of all the passengers that travel this road? How is it likely I'd remember him ? There's scores o. Johnny Bulls come along westbound every week, "d Vm, en' the less they have to say to me the better I like it 1" and then he passed on. My friend gave me a comical look of sympathy as he left the car, auo signed that he could do nothing more for me, and shortly afterward we were again tearing on ward. I was too much annoyed with the gross incivility of the man to take any lurther notice of the new conductor, and I deter mined to make no fresh attempt to approach him, since I did not see that his help could be of any consequence wkatever to me, for I had not the slightest reason to doubt that "William had reached Silveroow. Indeed, as the afternoon wore on I had banished the man from my thoughts, and was dreamily pazing from the car windows upon the phadowy niout,taic masses which now loomed up just ahead, when I felt a tap on my 'arm, and turning saw that he had seated himself opposite me. "Say, mister," said he, in an altered, sub missive tone, "I hope vou're not going to cut up rough because ot what I said 'way back there; you must 'xcuse that. You see, first coming aboard a train a conducter has a terrible deal to think about, and night work ain't improving to a man's temper." I had an instinctive dislike for the man, and there was something false and fawning iu his tone; but I could scarcely refuse his proffered apology, and so expressed myself satisfied. "Come, now, that's kind ol you," he went on. "Well, respectin' this Iriend of yours. You see, I've been pestered several times lately by people comin' along and wantin to know this and that and the other about other people, seemin' as if they thought I was a paid tracker, and it was partly that mat rued me wnen Knew what you were after. But it has come to me as I've been walkin' these cars that I do remember some thin' about a young fellow snehjjas you're lookin' for Johnny Bull warn't he?" "Yes, he was English," I said. "I reckon it's the same. As a rule I don't take no stock in Johnny Bulls, seein' what my family's suffered irom them; but this young man had a nice free way with him, somethin' like you, and he was strangely taken up with the scenery much as you might be, and me and him had con siderable chat together." "Did he go through with you?" I asked. Cert nly! My division ends right there at Whaycom, where he'd got to change for the Silverbow branch, and we left the car together. I recollect him asking me which was tne silverbow train, and be made straight for it, and that's the last I saw ot him. Mean to say you ain't heard of him since?" he asked. "Kot a word," I answered, and as I did so I wondered more than ever what it was in this man's face whicn repelled me so poweriully. "Well, that's strange." he went on. "But Silverbow's a particular hot place particular hot and a man's got to walk terrible straight, and not to wink either, if he means to keep clear of hard citizens; and they're particularly rough on tenderleet, thinkin' the place is fillin' up too fast. But you cheer up; like enough you'll find him easy; I'm acquainted up there, and I'll put yoa right with some people'll help you if anyone will." But even this unexpected kindness did not conquer my feeling of repugnance, and when, iu talking, he leaned forward as if to put bis hand on my knee, T involuntarily shifted so as to avoid it. He noticed the movement, and I could see resented it, and a curious expression crossed his heavy sodden features. But his irritation was only momentary, and he resumed the conversa tion, though with an abrupt change of sub ject. Ion lite sceneries? be asked. "Indeed I do," I replied, "when it is as fine as this." "Ah, but we've not got among it yet," he said. "Further on now there are some sights! There's one place in particular would you like to see it?" he asked ab ruptly, and as he spoke he fixed his restless eyes intently on mine. Hot until then did I discover what it was which gave the strange expression to his face, and now I suddenlv noticed that the pupils of hts eyes were slightly distorted, and that one was distinctly larger than the other. At the same time there came strongly over me the impression that his face was familiar to me, but for the moment I strove in vain to ro)lect where I had seen it, though I felt Bare that it had been in disa greeable or painful circumstances. I asked him absently what the view was that he so much wished me to see. "The place is just belore we reach "Whav com," was his reply. "We cross a long trestle over iiaKe JS.alipaw, and right there, if you know where to look, you can see the finest view of the Bockie's; and it's just lucky for you you're coining along at full moon when there's light enough to show the snow mountains behind the lake." He was so enthusiastic in his descriotion that I felt interested in spite of myself, and tuld him that I should indeed like to see that view, and asked him, if I fell asleep, to rouse me when we reached the place. It seemed to please him that I requested this of him. "You bet I will," he said ardently. "It's just my particular favorite show on this road, and I don't like auy one that's a friend of mine to puss without seeing it leastwise it he s fond of sceneries. He sat a little longer, and pointed out to me a few places of interest as we thundered along through the darkening day, but, nevertheless, I felt quite relieved when he got up and left me. My long journey be gan to tell upon me. I felt weajy and de pressed, and longed for sleep. But it was in vain that I assumed the easiest positions and closed my eyes determinedly; sleep would not come, save in short, fitful snatches, which seemed only to increase my feverishuess. When night "tell the car be came insufferably close and hot, and when I shut my eyes the jarring of the train be gan to shake all kinds of ttgly visions over my brain; the same ring ot Jaces was closing round me as had tormented me upon the prairie, again I heard "William's voice calling to me out of the uproar, and all at once I recognized in one" of the laces the uneven eyes of Conductor Dick. With a strong effort to control my wandering senses I got up and paced the car. but still the vision clung to me. "What could it portend? J kept asking myself; though all the timo mv leason and experience told me that it was but the result of an exhausted, over-harassed frame, and that my wild notion that this mau's lace was among those which had appeared to me on the prairie was only an idle trick ot the imagination and memory. To get rid of the suffocating feeling I stepped out upon the platform of the car into the cool rush of air. It W3s a perfect night. The still white moon had risen and was shining upon the waters of a switt river whose course we followed. Dark, pine-clad slopes were vaguely outlined above us on either hand, melting imperceptibly upward into slumbering mountains whose massive tranquility rebuked our clamorous hurry. Once more under this benign influence my fancies vanished and my mind recovered its composure. Yet I could not venture again within, but, wrapping my coat tighter round me to keep out the cold, watched the miles fly past. I scarcely know how long I had stood thus, when I started nervously at feel ing a hand on my arm, and sawlthat it was Conductor Dick, who had opened the car door unheard, and now stood beside me on the narrow ledge. "Wondered where you'd got," he said. "But you do right to come out here; it's pleasanter than inside. But say, now, I hope you weren't worrying yourself about yourpard; don't do that now. A man's easy lost sight of in this country, and I war rant you'll find him all right before long." Jest come alongl We'll be on the trestle in a lew minutes, and you can't see what I want you to see from here. We'll have to be on the rear platform so as to look right behind." I turned to follow him, mechanically, and we passed through two cars to the last ol the train, a long dining saloon in which the evening meal had been served. This was locked and in darkness, but Dick carried the key, an we entered and hurried through it betweetvthe little tables gleaming coldly in the moonlight. "Therel" he said, closing the door behind ns carefully as we stepped out at the other end and looked back upon the open track; "I reckon we'll be all right here, eh? Now, if I can't show you somethin' directly that'll beat all you ever saw, why just say my name ain't Dick." As he spoke the rapid pace of the train upon the steep down grade was checked, and we came quickly to a standstill. "What is it?" I asked. "Wt're just entering upon the Kalipaw trestle," he, replied. "The driver's got to stop dead before touching it, by orders, fear he shook the whole darned thing to pieces like enough he will some day, as it is and he's got to cross not faster than five miles to the hour. That gives us time enough, any how, eh?" As he spoke, we began to crawl steadily forward, and I noticed that we were leaving the steep valley side and were heading straight for a lair sheet of water which lay Afo-mvfifrmi JiiAiTifftifcfti - '--a- ":ifii1iflfiiii irf iim ' Yfljisssffifffil TirMBsSyiftri. 1i1.i1i1ir'-fcilsa,&li:aAiuhl --r glimmering far below us. In the uncertain light it seemed from the rear as though our massive vehicles were launching out upon a cautious flight in nir, but the loud groan ing and creaking of the timbers showed that we had entered upon the trestle. To a traveler accustomed only to the more en during railroad construction ot Europe there is nothing more striking and to the timid more terrifying than the manner in which, on the Western lines, the slim-looking structures are thrown across lake, river and valley. A mere open scaffolding of timber, just wide enough at the top to carry the rail;, seems sufficient in the eyes ot the American engineer for any emergency. So long as he can find a sound foundation into which to fix or drive his piles, it seems to matter not to him to what height, or for what distance he may have to carry the superstructure, and he rapidly raises an intricate network of beams which mu tually prop and support each other like a 'puzzle. Of such construc tion was the edifice upon which we had now entered. The long and shallow Lake Kali paw lay right athwart the track, and the trestle crossed from shore to shore at its narrowest part. Its length might be about half a mile, and its height above the water fully 60 feet. The track was, of course, single, and the timbers on which it rested did not project more than two feet on either side, so that as we passed along the broad cars seemed quite to overhang the water. It was indeed a magnificent spectacle which opened be ore us from the bridge. As we moved slowly on. aTanee of snowy peaks marched into view, one by one, at the further end of the fake, and shone ghostly over the dark forests below. My eyes wandered over the placid waters and those distant peaks; for the moment, I forgot everything. But my rapture was quickly broken by Dick's excited tones. Turning quickly, I found him leaning with outstretched neck over the hand rail, with his eyes riveted upon the water. "See I" he cried. "There he goes there he goes I Wnere s mv shooter? "What is it?" I asked, looking in vain for the cause of his excitement. "Don't you see it? Don't you see the wapiti ?" he shouted. "There," man, there right below us, swimming the lake 1" I grew as excited as he was, and hung from the platform beside him, vainly striv ing to catch sight of the elk. "See 1 He's heading straight for the bridge," he cried. "Here, man, stand right here on the step ! Quick, or you'll lose him ! Gim'uie your hand, and then you can lean well forward I No, your other hand. You needn't grab the rail. I'll hold you fast enough I" "Confused and hurried, I leaned forward as he directed, but still held .fast to the rail. "See him now ?" he screamed, and at that instant I felt his fingers nervously tearing at mine, and before I could realize what he meant, I was flung suddenly forward and iell headlong from the car. Fortunately, when I felt his hand on mine my fingers had instinctively tightened their grip of the rail, and it was this alone which saved me from instant destruction. As it was my whole weight fell on my arm with a jar that nearly dislocated it, but I was instantly aware that my life was at stake, and hung dangling with a grip like death. A second later I had twisted my self about and seized with my other hand the edge of the platform, and not till then had I time to look up. In a confused way 1 thought it must have been some sudden oscillation of the car which had thrown me from my leet, and I gasped to my companion for help. But even as I did so, I saw with horror that I was doomed. The glaring eyes and dis torted lace of a maniac hung-over me, and he was even then striving with convulsive fury to crush my clenched fingers with his heavy hoot, while in his free hand his re volver was waving close over my head. That one glance was enough I saw it all now! Fool that I was not to have seen it beforcl Those unequal eyes the sinster look I had shrunk from the capriciousness and excitement were they not tokens clear as noonday? The most unobservant might have recognized them, and yet I, whose training should at least have guarded me, had heeded them not, and had placed my life in the hands of a deliberate and cun ning homicidal maniac. I screamed for help, but I knew it could not come. My voice was lost amid the creak ing of the trestle and the rumble of the train; and even had it reached the occupants of the nearest car, what chance had I? The bolted door of the dining car divided us, and mv fate was a question of seconds! I groaned in utter helplessness, and then the madman's foot crushed down upon my fingers and broke them from their hold, and I tell. Yet again was a briet respite vouchsafed me. In falling I had struck heavily upon a supporting beam, and the motion of the train threw me forward across it, leaving me precariously balanced. One leg hung loose between the sleepers, but the other rested across the rail, and sustained me as I lay maimed ana dazed. But still I was not to escape. The ping of a pistol shot and a sudden sharp pain in my shoulder aroused me, and I saw my enemy a few yards away, hanging over the rail of the slowly retreating train, revolver in hand, deliberately taking aim at me as I lay helpless. Again came the ping and a puff of white smoke from the platlorni, and a bul let rang out on the metals close to my head. Again, and I shrieked, the bullet had entered mv thigh. Then consciousness must have left me; tor when I looked uo the train had gone, and even the reverbation of the rails had ceased. I was alone, and, still banging from the trestle, with the full moon above me and the restless waters below. Slowly the events of the night came back to me and I began to realizemy position. Every moment gave me exquisite pain, but I seemed to have no brokeu bones and man aged to drag myself into a more secure posi tion. Then I lay quiet awhile thinking. The awful strain I had passed through caused a momentary feeling ot positive hap piness and security to float over me. But alas! it wjs soon faded. What could I do? Wounded and fainting, on a narrow bench barely wide enough for me to balance upon, with an open network of cross-beams and the gurgling water below. To lose my hold was to be dashed to death among tne timbers, and to fall, a lifeless corpse, into the lake. To lie where I was meant ceitain death from the uextstring ofcars which passed. Yet how to escape? To cross the long interval which separated me from cither shore was a feat I should have hesitated to attempt even in broad day, witn all my vigor to do so in my present state was utterly impossible. I shouted till mv voice grew weak, but I knew it was hopeless. The steep cliff-like shores were untenanted, and probably the nearest houses were in Whaycom, a full mile beyond the trestle. And iu the hurry and bustle of the train's arrival at that town I niicht be sure that I should not be missed by any one. And with that there came a new terror upon me. Suddenly I remembered that the mad conductor's term of duty ended there, that it was there he dwelt, that he knew his plan of flinging me clean off into the lake had failed. With his devilish craftiness would he not come back to make sure, to shove my body off into the water it I was dead, and, if not, to ? Even as these thoughts flashed upon me I felt a slight tremor in the rail, and heard a distant hollow sound as of a footstep on the timbers. I had always obstinately refused to carry arms, counting myself secure in peaceful intensions. How I cursed my folly now! How easy to have feigned dead, and to have dropped the madman in his tracts when he approached! And thatdistant tap, tap, tap on the timber was growing clearer and clearer! Already I could discern against the sky the figure of a man on the bridge, and who but that madman would venture across it at such an hour? Could I do nothing for my lire? There were still some minutes before he would able in this uncertain light to distinguish me among the timbers. Must I let that precious interval pass without one eflort? I peered over the edge of my beam and saw that from either end of it a cross-tie sloped inward at a sharp angle and disappeared into ah entanglement oi shadows. Were it possible lor me to reach those shadows I might lurk there un observed while my enemy passed overhead! But how to reach them? There was just one chance a (earful chance! Might it not be THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, possible to drop upon the cross-tie and slide along it? I must try; if I fail well, 'tis but the inevitable result another way; that is h11. The pain, as I dragged myselt to the outer edge ot the bench, was almost greater than I could hear, and smothered groans would es cape me. And then? In vain I probed the space below me with my uninjured leg, the sloping surface of the cross-tie was still some feet beyond, and to lower myself with my crippled hands was utterly impossible. Nearer and nearer came the footsteps. Now1 or neverl I closed my eyes in prayer, and flung myself offin the direction of the beam. It was indeed a desperate throw, but I wonl I fell across the timber, and, quite helpless, shot swiftly along it. For one moment I swayed dangerously, then brought up suddenly and violently, and found my self jammed safe in the angle between the sloping surface and an upright, almost di rectly under the rail. I dared not move, scarcely breathe; and hung limp and awk ward, just as I had slipped, while above me I heard the steady, calculated tread ap proach. It was he sure enough! I heard his voice and shuddered. Had he heard me? He was muttering impatiently, and when he wa nearly overhead he paused. Distinctly I could bear his words. "Beckon it was some where hereabouts. Oughter see the carcass, d him. Squirmed off, and fallen in. I reckon; cot likely he'd catch among the timbers. D liim for this trouble," he shouted in sudden anger, "d him, I say. WTiat cause had he to hang and kick? What better was he than th' others, that he need put up his game on me? Nine before, and never a hitch; and now a circus like this! But he was a Johnny Bull, and he did it to suit met" Then his voice fell again into a madman's cunning chuckle. "Fancy now, the boys hearin' my gun wouldn't have thought it! But there's nothin' un ready about Dick, that there ain't! Dick'll go one better than the gang won t we, Dick? Beckon now there ain't a man won't talk when he gets home about that elk he saw in the water that Dick Quanton fired at!" And then, still chuckling, be went on a few step3, and 1 could not catch his words. But he seemed irresolute and came back again, evidently anxiously scanning the lake. Suddenly he broke into a loua dis cordant laugh. He had caught sight ot my hat, which in my last struggle had dropped offand fallen into the water. "Ha! ha! There she goes!" he shouted. "Promised you you would find your friend! Guess you've done it, eh, you "Johnny Bull?" Alas! this was what I had been dreading ever since I found myself lying on the trestle! This, then, has indeed been my poor lriend's fate! Even in the midst of my terror and pain I mourned him. To think that fine light-hearted lad should have fallen victim to this wretched maniac! Surely this was the cruelest blow of all. The sight of my hat seemed to have calmed and satisfied the bloodthirsty wretch, and he went contentedly back. Bat he had done his worst, and I scarce cared to notice that his footsteps were gradually receding. Absolute silence settled down around me. "Steady, matesl Steady! He ain't a stiff yet!" With this voice in my ears I opened my eyes, to find that it was broad daylight and that I was being tenderly hoisted to the bridge by a group of men who were looking down ou me with sympathetic faces, while the one who spoke was slung by my side and was supporting me. Gradually, like the memory of a frightful dream, my sufferings unrolled themselves be fore me, and I moaned. Whereupon, even in mid-air, my companion applied to my lips a flask ot acrid whisky, and this so far revived me that when we reached the track I was able to give some kind of an account of what had happened to me. Significant nods and glances passed from man to man when Dick Quanton's name was mentioned, ' and I could see that in spite of their horror and dismay the majority believed that I h'ad told the truth. Only one suggested that I was" a "dead beat" tramp who had been stealing a ride and had fallen off the brake of a passing train, and he was promptly silenced. Indeed the general belief in my honesty took rather an awk ward form, as they bore me off the trestle each man insisted that I should drink from his flask, and the result was that before we had reached the town I was once more in capable either of speech or motion, and I verily believe that their vile whisky came near doing what the mad conductor had failed to do. However my condition was credited to my injuries, and they pitied me the more for it. I learned afterward that lowed my rescue to the bridge patrol, who noticed fresh bloodstains on the timber in the course of his daily examination of the structure, and on searching closely for the cause, detected what he believed to be the dead body of a man upon the crosstie. But for the prompt aid which he called up, 1 am inclined to think his prognosis would have been correct. Dick Quanton was supposed to be asleep in bed wnen the officers entered his house to arrest him. But when they reached his room he was ready for them, and in the terrible struggle which followed, his madness re vealed itself clearly enough to all of them indeed two of the men will bear the evidence of it to their dying day. From th$ investi gation which ensued it appeared that his family and friends had lung known that be was a prey to strange illusions, but they re garded, or allected to regard, them as inno cent. Perhaps it was because he had always been a dangerous man to meddle with that they did not care to interfere. He was, ot course, passed on from the prison to the madhouse, and died soon after of general paralysis. The number of his victims was never ac curately known, but in my own miud I have no doubt that the number I heard him mention was the true one. They were prob ably all dispatched within a period of six or seven weeks, and poor William must have been one of the first. Many other travelers afterward recalled that he had tried, on one excuse or another, to tempt them to the rear plat'orm. These were all men who were traveliug alone and were bound for the Silverbow region, for, with that diabolical cunning which characterized all his actions, the madman sought only to entrap those who were not likely to be soon missed. None of the bodies were recovered, nor was it likely that they would be, for the strong current which sets through the nar rows would carry anything falling from the bridge into the deeper recess of the lower basin. But a close elimination of the cen tral portion ot the trestle yielded ample confirmation of my story. Many of the out standing lower buttresses bore here a blood stain, and there a few clotted hairs or a shred of clothing, showing where the tailing men had struck upon them. From this it may be supposed that in most cases death would be swift and merciful. When ifter a long and "tedious convales cence I at last regained my strength, it need scarcely be told that I had had enough of the West, and was only too gl id to leave the country altogether and to return to my friends at home. But my nerves have never quite recovered, and even now, only with grave discomfort can I undertake a railroad journey and it is only in rare cases of abso lute necessity that I adopt this mode of travel at all. Certain am I that I shall not again, on any excuse, venture aboard a West-bound express. Maanillan's Maga zine. A GOOD appetite is generally restored to adults and childen alike by Dr. D.

I once knew an illiterate old lady who had never spent a single day outside the village in which she was born. When taken to a mountain top in the vicinity she gazed around in wonder, and exclaimed: "I never thought the world was so large as this!" Is it not a fact that, thousands of people are living in Pittsburg, hearing the busy hum of her machinery, and seeing the results of the beating of her great heart in its totality, who have but a poor conception of the various processes by which such results are obtained? With what avidity the crowd drinks in the displays of human ingenuityl Is it not possible that genius in embryo, un der the .magic influence ot such surround ings may be suddenly developed and pro duce results of illimitable benefit to man kind, which otherwise might have remained dormant? The Centennial Exposition of 1876, either directly or indirectly, transformed a nation, whose ideas of esthetic things were com paratively undeveloped, into one of the most liberal patrons oi art and science in the world. Review the progress of this nation since 1876, and what do we find? American ingenuity has become proverbial the wide world over, and the results are but in their infancy. The cottage of the poorest man is made brighter and happier by little touches of artistic culture. Where hung the crude print of yesterday to-day we see chromatic copies of soul-inspiring works that have made the world purer and better than it was. The influence of this great international gathering has permeated every hamlet in this great country, and has left the impress upon nearly every home. The mighty strides in intellectuality which we as a people have made during the last decade are truly mar velous. Admitting . these things to be true, how can it be possible that Pittsburg can wit ness such an Exposition as the present and escape being in proportionate degree simil larly influenced? No city in this vast world has been so blessed iu natural advan tages as this and yet many of her people have no adequate conception of the fact. Familiarity is the mother of that indiffer ence which is apt to hinder appreciation, but the man, woman or child who can care fully and thinkingly pass through the Pittsburg Exposition and truthfully assert that the intellect has received no stimulus. is little less than a nonenity. Thirdly, the Exposition must ot necessity be a financial benefit to Pittsburg. Unutilized advantages bring no profit to the possessor. A mau may have within his brain capacities for magnificent achieve ment, but unless the golden key of oppor tunity is used :o open the door he might just as well be a driveling simpleton, so far as good results are concerned. Advertising is the soul of success in business. In performing their legitimate function the daily newspapers keep belore the world the fact that Pittsburg is destined to become the center of such a radius of mechanical ingenuity as the world has never witnessed. Expositions, such as the present one, not only emphasize these oft repeated assertions, but put upon them the stamp of almost absolute certainty. Could we but lift the veil which covers the face of Inturity the revelation would be astounding. Pittsburg is yet a blushing maiden, just budding into new beauty. She has only just made her debut. Her charms are being developed every day, but it she veils them beneath the habiliments of the sacrilege of excessive modesty she will be likely to live a life of seclusion, sacrificing her voluptu ous splendor upon the altarof unpardonable negligence. Thousands of people are thronging the city from far and near. Some are here lor the purpose of viewing the products of Western Pennsylvania with a view to purchase. Every dollar that is thus brought into the city adds that much to her wealth. The Exposition opens the portals ot our natural advantages and lets the outside world get a glimpse of the treas ures witnin. J.he American people grasp opportunities when and where they find them. This is an age of wonderful progress, and the whole world is on the alert for develop ment. That within her corporate limits and immediate vifcinity Pittsburg has a world of wealth, is being exemplified more and more. The home of electricity, the camping ground of the internal forces of nature, the hub around which inexhaustible mineral treas ures cluster, Pittsburg stands unique. The press points out these advantages, and to that institution the city owes a large part of its wonderful success. The Expositlou is the pictorial illustration of what the press has asserted. Lack of-space makes it im possible to write of all the advantages to be reaped by the Exposition. Country people at this season of the year have leisure. They have money, too, and they expect to spend some of it among Pittsburg merchants. Railroads are selling cheap excursion tick ets, and the rural population is taking ad vantage of the opportunity. This is a direct outcome of the Exposition. Surely no further argument is necessary to prove that by the present Exposition Pittsburg is being benefited morally, intellectually and finan cially.

The carpenters and joiners instituted a peculiar strike here to-day iu the Algiers dockyards, on the question of drinks. The men have been in the habit of taking several drinks during working hours.

THE GRAHAM CASE. The recent election at Ewing's Mills, one of the suburbs of Pittsburg, was interesting as developing the popularity of one of the candidates, Mr. John M. Graham. Out of all the votes cast tor the office of Justice of the Peace Mr. Graham received the entire number with five exceptions. Mr. Graham's goodlortuue extends to other fields than political ones. The news has recently been received that he has struck an oil well on bis premises that run 75 barrels a day. This will net him at least J18 a day. Mr. John M. Graham, Ewing's Mills, Alle gheny county. Pa. Bnt still another piece of good fortnne has befallen Jlr. Graham, upon which he is to be congratulated. How this came about is best shown by his own statement. He sajs: "I bad suffered for a good while from catarrhal trouble. It began In my head. My nostrils would close np. first one side and then the other. There would be frequent pains In my neau. "There would be ringing and buzzing noises In my ears. I feared that my hearing was be coming impaired. My throat would fill up with mucus, 1 could feel the phlegm dropping back from my bead. Sometimes my throat would feel sore aud inflamed. "After awhile I began to have sharp, stab bing pains in my chest. My heart wonld beat hard and fast. This wonld be followed by slow, irregular beating aud a sensation of faintness. "My appetite becami- affected. There would be a feehne of discomfort at my stomach after eating, and sometimes a nausea and vomiting. My sleep was broken, and I would get up in the morning tired and uurefrcsbed. Indeed, my entire system was broken down from the effects of the disease. "I began treatment with Drs. Cooeland ind Blair and improved from the start. The symptoms ot the catarrh gradually disap peared, and I feel strong and well now. I will cheerfully corroborate this statement to any one who will call upon me." HOME TREATMENT. Mrs. Robert Ramsey, of Washington, Pa., speakinz of her successful treatment with Drs. Copeland & Blair, says: Every fall for the past five years 1 have heen troubled with chronic dyspepsia. Have tried countless remedies and vanons physicians without any relier. I could not get ease from pain in any position 1 wonld assume. Every breath I drew was like a knife cutting me. I became weak and pale, losing greatly in weight. I began treatment by mail with Drs. Cope land fe Blair. All these svmptoms have disap peared, and I now feel as well as I ever did. NOTABLE CREDENTIALS. The credentials and indorsements of these gentlemen are indeed noteworthy.
