A THRILLING ADVENTURE.
Carried Down the Mountains by a Run
away Train.
{ Cincinnati Times Star

Cincinnati Times Star.)
HELENA, MoNT.-A party of sight
seers had a thrilling adventure on the
newly constructed Northern Pacif c
Line across the main range of the
Rocky Mountains at Mullen Tunnel,
fourteen miles west of this city. The
-lart fefsshe road referred to is known
! as the Overhead line" Overhead of
Mullen Tunnel and crosses the summit
at an altitude of about 7 900 feet above
the sea level.) Being only intended
for temporary use, the overhead line is
very steep and crooked, and thestrong-
est OF locomotives are required for
pulling the trains over the mountains,
Yesterday Professor r. H. Hover, ac-
companied by his wife and FIVE friends
went out to the tunnel on the con-
struction train for the purpose of go
/ ing over the headlines, and such trips,
despite the danger, are quite popular
About half way up the mountain
the caboose occupied by the party was
left standing with locked brakes on
the main track. Suddenly a Swede
appeared on the bank above and be-
gan shouting at them in an excited
manner in his native tongue. Prof.
Hover rushed out on the uphill plat
form and saw rounding a curve not
more than 100 yards up the mountain
runaway train coming down from the
summit. It was composed of a loco
motive weighing $4,000 pounds and s
fiat cars heavily loaded with railroad
iron. 1t was coming like an avalanche.
There was no time to get the ladies out
of the caboose and to be struck by the
runaway train could have but one re-
suit, the hurling of the caboose train
which stood at a sharp curve in the
road into the gorge below.
Professor Hover sprang to loosen
the brake, and the Swede, who had
scrambled down the bank, grasped it
the same instant. The caboose then
started down the mountain with fright
ful velocity, and the runaway train
came laundering along behind with
increased speed. The engineer re-
manned at his post, clutching the lever,
but reversing his engine was of no
avail in checking its wild course, and
only increased the danger of its fyin g
the track, and soon the calaboose was
overtaken, but as it was going almost
as faJJ as the train there were 10, sc,
rlouAb consequences: and all rushed
down the mountain together, and ca
boose, locomotive and iron cars al
kept the track. Although the speed
attained was terrific all reached the
valley below in safety.

A Carolina Cave,
{ Washington Post.l

WEBSTER, N. C.-Convicts in ex-
cavating tunnel i'll the Milestone
Mountains, on the Ducktown Branch
of the w. n. G.. r. r., % miles west of
this place, broke through she'll of
rock, and found themselves in an I'M
mense cavern. It is asserted that the
cave has the beauty of the famous Lu-
ray caves with much greater size. Not
a great distance from here is Bald
Mountain, from whence strange noises
and rumblings proceed at times, and
whose origin has been so much discuss
ed. The cause of these noises is SIM
ply the falling of enormous masses of
limestone rock from the srcof of the
mighty caverns. Subterranean streams
flow these mountains. At Warm
Springs base the current of the great
French Broad River sinks out of sight
and whereas a mile above the place
the river is a perfect torrent, deep and
violent. In the mountains on the line
of the railroad near this place, were
discovered by the convicts many skel-
etons, and the remains of two mann.
moths. Part of the road near here is
cut through solid mountain of rec
marble, the place being known as Red
/ Marble Gap.

A MARVEL IN MA RKM NSHIP.
The Career of Charles Wallace. Who Can
Shoot Dime From His Wife's Lips.
(Narzcoro Lette7. in Boston

(1Harlcaro Letter IN Boston Glo6e.)
There is in town at the present time
a party who has an interesting and
eventful history The person is Chas.
Wallace, who was born in Choloihofo,
Mo, in 1913, and from his boyhood
until the breaking out of the rebellion
was engaged in hunting and trapping.
When the call came for soldiers he re-
sponded, enlisting in the Fourth Miss
issippi Regiment and served through
out the rebellion. He was in Ander-
sonville, Libbey, Belle Isle and Flor
ence prisons. At the first named he
was sentenced to be shot July 18th,
1868. The night preceding the day
on which he was to meet his death he
with seven others, managed to escape.
They managed III the darkness to get
close to the guard, when companion
named Bob Allison, of Connecticut,
threw preparation of fine dry tobac-
co and pepper into the guards face.
At the conclusion of his war experience
Wallace went on the plains as a. scout
carrying with him in his body nine
bullets, ~~seven Of which can be dis
tinctly felt. During a fight with a
party of Apache Indians he had a
personal encounter with one of the
chiefs of the tribe named Osceoneo.
The fight was hand to hand, and meant
