WHAT Is LIFEp
"a HoRRlBLR ADVENTURE"

The Paris Pmrie sustains the we'll
earned reputation of the French press
for producing sensational anecdotes,
by contributing the following to that
species of literature
An adventure truly horrible, and
which, If made by the subject Of a
melodrama, would certainly be de-
nounced Us improbable, has just oc-
Cured in the environs Of Viterbo, in
the Pontifical States. a cattle dealer
stopped at an inn on the road not far
from the city. He seemed very we'll
satisfied with the accommodation and
with himself, and he related to the
inn-keeper that he had just made an
excellent bargain about some cattle,
by which he had netted sum Of 5000
francs. After supper he started for the
city, but had not gone far before he
was attacked by three men, who tried
to get him down. He defended him.
self bravely, and succeeded in making
his escape. He returned to the inn
and related what had happened. At
the same time he said he would sleep
there, as he did not wish, for fear Of
another attack, to resume his journey
until the next morning. Accordingly,
4 room was prepared for him, and he
retired to bed and soon fell asleep.
In the course Of the night he awoke
and heard some one speaking outside
the door. What he heard filed him
with horror. The inn-keeper was say
ing to some one "Dig the hole
deeper In the garden. l will throw
him out Of the window, and you can
bury him at once" The traveller un-
derstood the situation instantly. They
were going to murder him, and the
inn-keeper was in league with the
murderers to share the plunder and
conceal his body. He Immediately
rose and dressed himself, and arming
himself with spade, which was stand
ing in q corner Of the room, he waited.
It was not long before he heard some
one approach the door. 1t was opened
softly, and the cattle dealer saw the
inn-keeper about to step into the room.
He Immediately struck the wretch
dead on the floor with the spade.
The cattle dealer then lifted up the
body, and, opening the window, be-
meath which he could see in the dim
light three men and a large pit dug for
himself, he threw the inn-keeper into
the yard. The three men took up the
body, which they did not recognize,
and set to work to bury 1t. The cattle
dealer, without losing n second, crept
down stairs, opened the door Of the
inn and hurried off to give informa-
tion to the Papal Carabineers. They
soon arrived at the scene Of the crime.
The three accomplices Of the would-be
murderer had just finished their dismal
work. They were Immediately ar
rested and recognized as the sons OF
the inn-keeper. It was they, doubt
less, who. at the instigation Of their
father, had attacked the cattle dealer
on the road. ......
