High Water Stops an Elopement.

A young lady and gentleman living
near the Red Sulphur Springs, Va, and
whose names are omitted on occount OF
their families, eloped from the house OF
the lady's parents for the purpose of get
ting married last week. The flying pair
were in buggy, and made good time
until Indian creek was reached. The
creek was verv high, but an attempt was
made to ford it, when midway of the
stream the vehicle was washed over and
the occupants thrown in the water. The
young man caught the lady as the rushing
waters were carrying her down and held
her. Fortunately just at the root of the
tree there was sufficient foothold for the
Young man to stand SO that the water
only came up to his armpits, but on eth,
er side of him it was too deep and the
current too strong for him to venture to
reach the shore. He held the young lady
in his arms for two hours before they
were discovered. The position was made
more unpleasant by the sun pouring its
rays upon them. Fortunately, when the
buggy was overturned, an umbrella was
thrown in reach of the young man and
he managed to open and hold it over the
lady. Novel as was the catastrophe, tue
rescue was even more novel. A young
man, although the risk was great, swan
a strong horse to the place, and the i'm
perilled lady and gentleman hung on to
the animals tail and were brought back
safely. The father caught up with the
pair at the creek and the wedding did not
take place.

Big Prices at New York Hotels.

The amount of money spent in hotels
in New York must be enormous. 1 was
chatting with well-posted hotel man
who was telling me about the prices paid
by some of the guests. "The Hoffman
House," said he, "has guest who pays
$115 a week for his rooms, or over SIG q
day-Admiral Maxsey, of the English
Navy. His service and meals are extra
and must bring his bills well up to 5000
a week for himself alone. John w.
Mackey pays s1OO week tor rooms at
the Hoffman. When James McHenry,
the London railroad man, was over here
on New York, Pennsylvania g. Ohio
business he paid $50 day for suite of
rooms with private service and table at
the Victoria Hotel. 1t was the same suite
of rooms that President Cleveland occu-
pied when he held his famous Victoria
Hotel conference, to get acquainted with
the prominent Democrats of the country.
There is a Mr.. Dean at the Fifth Aven-
ue Hotel, whose bills are about $50 a
day. He is retired Californian and has
family and several servants. He has
been there all winter The Windsor
frequently has guests who require service
amounting to $50 or $50 day. Madame
Barrius, the widow of the Central Amer.

paying guests a New York hotel has
ever known. She stopped at the Lang.

How Scalping Feels.

A sick and sorry looking specimen of
humanity stepped from the passenger
train last night and climbed into a
waiting wagon and was driven to the
country. His name was Samuel Neff.
He is q man of about thirty years of age
and his parents reside in Pine Creek.
Young Nef is just home from Arizona,
where he has been prospecting in the
mines and acting as a scout on the hunt
for Indians. Unfortunately for him he
found the murderous red devils, and they
almost made mincemeat of him.
One day while riding through q canon
he was shot through the shoulder and
fell from his horse. His assailants,
finding that be was not dead, tortured
him outrageously. They cut gashes in
his face and all over his body, applied
fire to his feet and hands and ended their
brutal assaults by scalping him. He
suffered untold agonies and prayed that
death might relieve him. Finally he
fell into faint, and upon awakening he
found himself being badly cared for in
miners cabin. The miner had picked
him up and carried him long distance
On horseback. Nef suffered weeks of
excruciating pain and raved with fever,
and as soon as he was able to travel he
took the road for home.
Last evening Chronicle reporter ask.
ed Nef how it felt to have his hair lifted.
s'It is dreadful sensation," he said.
zone thinks, as the skin is being torn
from the skull, that his feet are coming
right up through his body to the top of
his head. Oh, it is terrible. 1t is so
painful that you cannot utter cry, and
thousands of stars dance before your eyes.
You imagine red.hot needles are darting
in and out of your flesh, and you clasp
your hands so closely that the finger nails
cut into the flesh. 1 would rather be run
through threshing machine, ground up
in a sausage mill, or thrown under a
locomotive, than ever undergo such an
ordeal. It makes me shudder to think
of the tortures have gone through with,
and I.never want to look upon the face
of another Indian"
"Do many persons survive the opera
tion ?" interrupted the reporter.
"No, I have only heard of two or three
men besides myself who have lost their
hair by the scalping.knife and then lived
to tell of it."
aMr. Nef, do you think the hair will
ever grow out again?"
"Oh, no; 1 shall always have bald
spot there. The skin was torn off for
space of four inches square, and I'm
afraid it will never heal entirely. Even
if it does heal over, the bare place will
always be so painful that cannot touch
it. keep my head tired up in cotton
and sweet oil. You can see that my
beauty has been considerably marred.
These frightful gashes across my face will
go with me to the grave."-Chica (Cal)

Two Pictures of Farm Life.

The wise men who edit newspapers and
write theses on social and political econ
omy advise young men in cities to HE
them to the country and grow up with it.
Early and late they wrestle with imagl-
nary angels for blessing upon their efforts
in the good work of depopulating the
oyercrowded city, and building up the
waste places where the owl hooteth and
the "gallinipper" draws sustenance from
animated nature. The fact that agricul.
ture is the basis of all solid prosperity is
made vehicle for the proposition that
it is therefore the most desirable of call
ings.
independent fellow, living on milk and
honey, or its equivalent, and bearing with
ease the weight of the whole economic
system. His wife is a portly, pleasing
dame, who glides peacefully through the
daily round of pies and dairy truck and
raises up children to call her blessed.
His daughter is rosycheeked damsel
who bushes naturally on slight proyo,ca,
tion and can jump tenrail fence, but
wears No. 2 shoes and has mind
thoroughly attuDed to nature in its love-
liest moods. The farmer boy is free from
care. He rises with the dawn, feeds the
philosophic mule and goes forth to
healthful labor. At noon he comes in,
eats the good things spread before him
and goes forth again to tickle the soil
that will soon laugh with harvest. At
night he reads good books by a pine
knot fire and stores his mind with useful
knowledge. He is a daisy and warranted
fast color.
That is the imaginary picture-this the
real: The farmer in this part of the
country at least, is not independent.
Far from it. If he makes big corn
crop, so does everybody else around him,
and he finds no sale for his surplus.
Does he try to raise hogs? Cholera
prances along two years in five and takes
them off. The range for cattle is getting
scarcer every year, and each steer costs
lust as much extra fencing to keep him
out of the fields. Cotton is the only crop
q small farmer can raise, sugar requiring
capital; and the price of cotton has been
steadily falling for ten years, until it has
reached the actual cost of production.
There is no profit to be made; scarcely a
good living. In fact, there is no such
thing as good living in the country, or so
| little of it that it doesn't count IN the
total. I don't attempt to explain this,

The Texas ranch, where there are thous:

A Georgia Heroine.

One of those heroines of whom the
world hears but little lives near Lexing-
ton. Her name is Sallie Handsfort.
Her husband has been bedridden nine
years with rheumatism, and she has had
four children-two boys and two girls
to support. Last year she bought 1O7
acres of land, much in original forest,
and, with the aid of two boys IA and Is
years old, cleared five acres. She cut
down the trees, rolled the logs, split the
rails, built the fence, burned the brush
with their help alone, and raised nine
bales of cotton, also corn and peas
enough for her own use, and paid her
rent. She has bought her meat for this
year and paid for it. In addition 10 this
she has done her cooking, milked her
COWS, and gone to market with eggs,
chickens and butter, selling enough to
buy all the clothing needed for the family.

Pluck in Petticoats.

Just now Bette Travis is the talk of
Texas. The frontiers of that State have
produced many women of dauntless cour.
age, but Betty in her way has surpassed
them all.
This girl isa beautiful blonde, sym.
metrical as "the, Greek Slave," charged
to her finger tips with electricity, and as
wild and fearless as an Amazon.
In some unexplained way Bette got
into trouble in Hunt county, and the
minions of the law made an attempt to
arrest her. She stood her ground with a
six-shooter, and kept the officers at safe
distance until she succeeded in effecting
her escape. She sought a home with
her relations near Bairdstown, but they
proved quarrelsome, and she found it
necessary to draw pistol and drive them
into the next county. For this consta-
bic tried to arrest her, but she got the
drop on him with Winchester rifle and
then rode off to pastures new. The
high spirited damsel was next heard Of
in the Indian Territory. There she was
charged with violating the revenue laws,
and q determined effort was made to
secure her capture. Miss Bette was
equal to the emergency. She donned q
mans suit of apparel, and armiDg herself
with double barreled shot gun and
revolver, terrorized all the officers and
settlers until she made her way to Red
River. The ferryman declined to carry
her over without pay, but the girl took
aim at his head and pursuaded him to
land her on the other side.
Such careers are generally as brief as
they are brilliant. A deputy sheriff fin
ally captured poor Bette Travis near
Paris. He founo the girl roaming the
woods like veritable Ophelia babbling
unintelligible nonsense, and adorniDg
herself with wreaths of wild flowers.
Fortunately the deputy had sense enough
to see that he was dealing with lunatic
instead Of a desperate. he treated his
prisoner kindly, ind turned her over to
the State lunatic asylum. Texas now
feels sense of relief For long sime
it has been question whether Bette
would take Texas or Texas would take

her residence to learn all the facts. Miss
Dunaway, who had been pronounced
dead, said:
"For four years, rheumatism and neu.

other treatment. My muscles seemed to

were swollen, painful and large, lost my
