A LOVE-LORN HERMIT.
4 ROMANTIC TALE OF A FRENCH STU
DENT WHO LOST HIS SWEETHEART.

Thirty years ago Gilbert Fran
els Vertzen, a Frenchman, drifted
into a small French Colony about
three miles west of New Albany,
Ind. He was unhappy in the So
ciety of human beings and found a
cave in contiguous wild region
called "knobs. !" He procured a
chair, a box for a table, a pewter
| plate, tin cup and two quilts and
moved into the cave and became
'sthe hermit of the Knobs" How
he lived no one knew, as his only
visible means Of support was pick
ing berries and selling them in
the town during the summer time.
1t was observed that whenever he
appeared in public he always car
ried with him a small leather sat
chel, strapped to his side and closed
with clasp. The use Of the leath-
er pocket was not apparent to any
one. Curiosity sometimes took
people to the neighborhood Of his
cave, but he seldom admitted any
one and was adverse to converse
ton. The only communication he
held with anybody else's thoughts
was through few old French books
which he read constantly when at
home. About ten years ago, how
ever, snapper-up of unconsider
able trifies got little way into his
confidence and gained from him
some particulars Of life, which were
printed at the time, but have a
| fresh interest now that the hermit
is dead. He was born in Versail
les, France, in 1910, Of good fam
lily, and went to college. While
finishing his education he fell in
love with a girl "above his estate
in life, although in his veins ran
noble blood" The parents of the
girl, who was well inclined toward
the student, put stop to the asso-
citation of the pair, which was rip
ening for matrimony. When he
knew that she was lost to him for
ever he had nothing more to do
with the world. He left college
ungraduated, and, scraping togeth-
er what money he could, he wan
dered. He drifted on the current
of time some years and finally lod-
ged at New Albany and thence to
his cave in the Knobs, where every
beat of his heart for thirty years
and sorrows was heavy upon him.
The other day he was found dead
in the cave by some chance callers
at his opened door. The secret of
his satchel was revealed. Within
its clasp, wrapped in thick paper
folds, was the picture of the beau
tiful French girl, whose loss had
blasted his lite fifty years ago.

A HORSE belonging to DR.. Quinn,

A HORSE belonging to DR.. Quinn,
of Paterson, n. j., will wait any
length Of time for its owner with
out being tied. But if anybody
else especially lady, takes him for
a pleasure drive, he will trot along
until he feels satisfied that his driv-
er has had riding enough, and then
he turns about and goes back home.
No amount of coaxing or force will
induce him to deviate from his pur-
pose. The Doctor cannot stop him
anywhere in the hot sunshine. If
he does the horse quietly walks to
a shady spot and there waits for
his owner. He always walks out
of the wind, and frequently turns
the next corner from where the
Doctor leaves him so as to get out
of the reach of a strong breeze.
His master always knows that he
will find him in the nearest comfor-
table spot.

THE CONVICTS' MAIL.
AN INGENIOUS METHOD OF cOAIMUNI-
eating WITH ONE ANOTHER.

The convicts in the Eastern Pen
nitentiary have a clever method of
communicating with one another,
and Notwithstanding all the pre-
cautions Of the keepers, the inmat-
es Of the cells who have been CON
demned by law to solitary confine-
ment manage to talk with each 9TH
er, and use what is farmiliarlv
known as the convicts' mail. There
is pipe which extends the length
of each corridor, and once or twice
a day this is flushed with water.
The inmates are aware Of this, and
a most ingenious method was en-
ployed by a convict yesterday
to reach a friend who was
twenty cells away. He had a pri-
vate message which he desired car
ried to his fellow in grief, so he
wrote a letter, inclosed it in piece
Of oil-cloth, and attached this to a
string of waXends 100 feet in length.
lie calculated the distance nicely,
each cell and the intervening walls
covering a space ofeight feet. The
friend had been notified beforehand
so he prepared himself. A forked
stick was placed in the pipe, which
he used to intercept the bundle.
When all was in readiness the SEN
der raped on the pipe as the sig
nal that the message was on its way.
In a second the rushing water had
conveyed it to its destination. The
receiver fished it out, read the con-
tents, answered the note, and then
from cell to cell was passed the
signal that an answer was in read
mess to be returned. Then the
original sender hauled in his 100
feet cord, and the mail arrived safe
ly.
This water pipe is used as a sort
of speaking tube by the inmates.
During the morning, when there is
no water in it subdued converse
tons are held between the convicts.
The newcomers inform those who
have been in for some time how
the boys are getting along, who is
:'broke'' and who has made haul.
Then all the latest news is ladled
out through this improvised speak
ing tube. This is the only meth
cd of communication the convicts
have, and oftentimes the men do
not see the faces Of any one except
their keepers for years upon years,
and only knew their next door nei-
ghbor by his voice. From tie

Rescued BY His Daughter.
From the Atlantic City Review


An elderly gentleman and his daugh-
ter, residents of an interior town in
Pennsylvania, came to Atlantic City a
few days ago, and feeling that hotel
where they could enjoy the sight of an
ocean from the house, as well as enjoy
its cooling breezes and engage in boat
ing and fishing as we'll as bathing,
would add to their enjoymen t, engaged
rooms at the New Inlet house. Satur-
day morning they started out for a
bath. The old gentleman was feeling
poorly, and did not care to go in the
surf, where the breakers were rolling
heavily. They procured bathing suits
near Massachusetts avenue and walked
down to point near the hotel, between
the inlet pier and the lighthouse. Here
the water appeared to be calm and the
surf looked pleasant and safe. This,
however, is not the bathing ground,
and while apparently smooth and calm,
is the entrance to the inlet, and the
shifting bar makes the spot treacher-
GUS one and not desirable for bathing
purposes. They entered the water,
and the young lady, who is an expert
swimmer, in fact, a graduate of the
well-known natorium, enjoyed her
plunge in the surf hugely. She pad
died around her father, add both felt
that they must leave the water, and
the girl said: "Pap, I'll swim out a
few yards and return to YOU" She &C
cordingly dashed out few yards, and
on her return was surprised to find her
father was nowhere to be seen. AS she
looked around for him she suddenly
saw him floating face downward some
distance from the shore. Swimming
rapidly toward him, she seized his in
animate form aud drew him ashore.
Alone and unaided she drew him on
the beach, and then her natatorium
education came into play, and by
means of her acquired knowledge she
was able to restore him to conscious
ness, and he was presently able to re-
turn to the boat house, where they
both exchanged their clothing and re-
turned to the New Inlet house. Atthe
personal request of the young lady, her
name and that of her father are sup
pressed.

A Spider Draws up Mouse by the Tail.

A very curious and interesting spec
tacle was to be seen OH Monday after.
noon in the Office of Mr. P. G. Clever's
livery stable in this city. Against the
wall of the room stands tolerably tall
desk, and under this small spider,
not larger than common pea, had
constructed an extensive web reaching
down to the floor.
About 11:3O o'clock Monday fore
noon it was observed that the spider
had ensnared young mouse by pass
ing filaments of her web about its tail.
When first seen the mouse had it's hind
feet off the floor, and could barely
touch the floor with its fore feet. The
spider was full of business, running up
and down the line, occasionally biting
the mouse's tail, making it struggle
desperately. Its efforts to escape were
udavailing, and the slender tlaments
about its tail We're too strong for it to
break. In short time it was seen
that the spider was slowly noisting its
victim into the air. By two o'clock in
the afternoon the mouse could barely
oouSu viz lOOI Will llS lore leel. ny
dark the point of its nose was an inch
above the floor. At 8 o'clock at night
the mouse was still alive, but had made
no sign except when the spider descend
ed and bit his TAIL At this time it was
an inch and half from the floor.
The next morning the mouse was
dead and hung three inches from the
floor.
The news of the novel sight soon be-
came circulated, and hundreds of peo-
pie visited the stable to witness it. The
mouse is small one, probably less
than half grown, measuring about one
and one-half inches from the point of
its nose to the root of its tail. How
the spider succeeded in ensnaring it is
not known. The mechanical ingenuity
of the spider, which enables her to raise
a body which must weigh forty or fifty
times as much as herself, has been the
subject of much comment and specu-
lation, and no satisfactory solution of
the difficulty has been found. All agree
that it is most remarkable case, and
one that would be received with utter
incredulity if it were not so amply at
tested.-Lebanon (Ky.) Standard,
