EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF AN IRON Cursr
What very nearly amounted TO a sh6cktnp
tragedy reminding one not q little Of the IA
nous old story OF the bride and the chest. took
place AZ Oxford, Canada, last Tuesday. AT
the handsome Ralph Hotel In that city, lately
built, TWO men and a boy employed on the
premises, from fun and curiosity, we believe
got into q very carefully constructed fire proof
plate chest. Another servant, also IN finn
little thinking what he was doing, closed the
door. 1t fastened with a spring lock, and the
horrifed victims found themselves inclosea in
an alright box about three feet square by sin
feet nigh. II Is difficult to understand how
three persons could have squeezed Themselves
into such place, for there was only lust stand
ing room: but such is the fact. Their cries soon
alarmed the establishment and at last the key
was found but, as might be expected in the
conclusion, under the agonized efforts of the
frightened man who had shut the door, IL broke
In the lock- There was now nothing for il hut
to break in, but the extraordinary strength oftbe
door resisted every effort OF sledge hammers
welded by powerful men working for the life OF
their fellow creatures. The escape ofthe prison
oners was only effected, after having been i'm
m ured for more than half an hour, by breaking
through the wall with proper mason's tools
The boy had tainted, and one Of the men was
bleeding from the nose and mouth: the other
had not yet begun to suffer visibly, though
much distressed. A very few minutes more,
II ls said not dye-and some, IL not all n.us,
have perished. Considerable crowds caIIad
around the hotel, both at the time and after

The captain lay quiet and the fellow backed
out ofthe cabin. As soon as he had reached
the deck the captain sprang from his berth,
and, seiZlng his revolver, rushed up stairs.
Tne man was just about climbing up the
wharf, when he fired, shooting him dead on
the spot. An examination Of the body proved
