- Asfoz chase is rare thing in this
country Al novel one recently took
place on the new railroad which runs
from Cayuga TO Ithica, along the east
lake. a fine old fox leaped on the
track short distance ahead of a loco
motive attached 10 a construction
train. A few bounds took the fox to
long stretch of track, where it was
impossible for him to escape except
by climbing steep wall of rock or
tumbling into the lake. The engin-
eer Immediately gave chase, and grad
uaily gained on the fox. An occa-
sional screech from the whistle caus-
ed the ilI-fated animal to gather him.

Sometimes he would stumble on the
rough road-bed, but q fresh shrek
from the whistle would send him
ahead again at q terrific rate, and
leagthenl the distance between his
tail and his merciless pursuer. The
engineer opened the throttle wider,
and soon gained considerable ON the

old fox Schuyler try harder TO shake
off his Crebit MobiHer responsible

terrible locomotive. Becoming dis
gusted with the rough ground. he
sprang on one of the rails, and few
along at a marvellous rate of speed,
never missing a step until he had
reached place where he jumped of
on safe spot on the lake side of the
rails. The engineer then blew sue
cession of shrill screams from the
whistle, which frightened the painting
fox out of mis- wits, and jumping on
the track again, in an instant he was
crushed beneath the wheels of the To-

Slow Poisoning from Green
-. : Wall Paper. =

A physician in Western Massachu-
setis recently had a lady patient who,
for several weeks, had been suffering
from nausea, general prostration, and
other symptoms of slow poisoning.
Failing to discover the cause of the
symptoms, as last resort the doctor
requested her TO move, from her cham
Der, the, walls of which were covered
with paper of very light shade of
green, SO light, indeed, that in the ev-
ening it could scarcely be, distinguish
ed from white. After leaving the
room the symptoms immediately dis
appeared, and the patient rapidly re-
covered. "A sample OF the paper was
forwarded for analysis to the State
chemist at Hartford Mr.. j oseph Hall
of the high SCHOOL,, and was found
to contain large quantity of arsenic.
Mr.. Hall obtained the poison in the
various forms of metallic arsenic, yell
low tersulphite, silver arsenite, and
arsenious acid, or common white ar
senic. He estimates that every square
foot of this innocent looking paper
contained an amount of the poison
equivalent to five grains of arsenious
acid, or. double the fatal dose for an
adult person. This, in the moist
warm weather of last July and AI-
gust, was amply sufficient to keep the
air of room constantly impregnated
with the poison, and any person occu-
pying such a room would be as GER
tainly poisoned as though the arsenic
had been taken into the stomach.
