that Mrs. Mallett's horse stumbled and
lell. There was no room for the least falt-
er. This was, therefore, a fatal step.
Mrs. Mallett, with almost incredible
presence OF mind, disentangled herself
from her horse Below her, ten feet, was a
shelving rock, about fifteen inches wide.
This she struck and caught with her
hands. With nerve that would have
made the sterner sex proud of manhood,
the lady held on to the end of the rock,
dangling in the air, gripping it with des-
peration. Had she let go, her next lodg-
ment would have been on another shelf
fifty feet below. To hold on was there
fore her only resort. With all the dis
patch possible Mr.. Mallett and others came
to her rescue, and succeeded in taking
her from the perilous situation, almost
uniniured, but of course very much ex-
hausted from fright.
Now comes the strangest part OF the
story. The horse fell and lodged on the
same shelf to which his mistress was cling
ing. In falling he had turned complete
ly around, but there he stood on the narrow
ledge of stone, hugging the wall. and
evidently realizing his position, if ever
a,horse realized anything. He did not stir
a muscle, hardly breathed, for an hour or
more, until ropes strong enough to take
out were sent for and obtained at camp
a mile distant. By the time these arrived
fifty men or more who were engaged in
the canon had gathered along the trail,
and as many as could make themselves
useful assisted in lifting the animal up.
He seemed torealize fully that steps were
being taken for his relief, and did not
move to make resistance until he was
placed upon sure footing in the path.
The escape of Mrs. Mallett, under the
circumstances, is little less than miracu-
lous, and that the horse should have been
saved is almost incredible. The accident
and the rescue have proved prolific
themes of conversation in Canon, and the
first report caused corresponding excite
ment. Mrs. Mallett, is the wife of Prof.
Mallett, who is the proprietor of the
reduction works at Canon.-DenUer (CoE.)

A Deputy Sheriff's Luck.

John Connors, deputy sheriff of ST.
Clair County, Missouri, was on his way,
recently, from st. Clair County to Jeffer-
son City, conveying to the penitentiary
a prisoner named Jones, and at one of
the small stations thirty or forty miles
from st. Louis, on the Missouri Pacific
road, the prisoner got away. Connors
was dumfounded, and got off the train
and plunged out wildly in the dark, not
knowing just why, but anxious to do
something. He wandered out IN the
country, until, tired and wet, he reached
a cabin. when he concluded to stop and
learn his whereabouts. He knocked Wig
orously at the door,
who's dar9" inquired, excitedly, a
voice within.
Mr.. Conuors explained his mission and
his situation.
well, you jes' can't come in heah |!
My ole mans away, an Use all by N.Y.
self. Use feared to let yer in heah, fur
uah!"
The deputy sheriff pleaded manfully,
though, and the colored woman in the
cabin finally relented and let him in. He
took seat, and, tired as he was, soon
fell half asleep. The old negress went
out, and he dozed alone, when there
came a laundering knock at the do r,
Conuors started up, and shouted, "Come
in!"
The door opened and man entered.
He stared at Connors and ConnoIs stared
at hlm. Then the visitor gasped out:
H-h-ow did you come here?n
The man was Jones, the escaped pris-
oner! By one of the most remarkable
condolences on record he had. after
escaping. walked into the very jaws of
danger again. Not one time in thou
sand could an officer have been so lucky
as Connors. He seized the prisoner with
yell, and hung on to HIM. Twenty
four hours later, Jones was in the peni-
tertiary.

Christ aud the Little Ones.

MARX ~, Id. LUXE TO- Id.
"The Master has come over Jordon,"
+ Said Hannah, the mother, one day;
"Heis healing the people who throng Him
With a touch of His finger they say.
And now shall carry the children,
Little Rachel and Samuel and John;
l shall carry the baby Esther,
For the Lord to look upon"
The father looked at her kindly,
But he shook his head and smiled
"NOw who but a doting mother
Would think of thing so wild%'
IF the children were tortured by demons,
Or dying of fever, 'twere we'll;
Or had they a.taint ofthe leper,
Like many in Israel"
Nay, do not hinder me, Nathan,
feel such burden of cale;
If carry it to the Master,
Perhaps shall leave it there.
IF He lay His hand on the children,
My heart would be lighter, know;
For blessing forever and ever
viii follow them as they go.'
So over the hills of Judah,
Along the vine rows green,
With Esther asleep on her bosom,
And Rachel her brothers between,-
'Mong the people who hang on His teaching
Or waiting His touch or His word,
Through the row of proud Pharisees listening
Sne pressed to the feet of her Lord.
NOW, why should'st thou hinder the Master, ,
Said Peter, with children like these?
Seest not how from morning to evening
He teacheth and healeth diseasew
hen Christ said, FORBID not the children!
Permit them to come unto Me-"
And He took in His arms little Esther,
And Rachel He sat on His knee.
And the heavy heart of the mother
Was lifted all earth care above,
As He laid His hands on the brothers,
And blest them with tenderest love-
As He said of the babes in His bosom,
'Of suc1 is the Kingdom of Heaven;"
And strength for all duty and trial
That hour to her spirit was given.

by removing the runners and keeping
them in hills.
