An Involuntary Walk.

Our popular constable, VIM. Carr,
while in search of man by the name
OF French, yesterday, took the pre-
caution of looking through a freight
train which had stopped at the depot.
Being intent on his search, the train
pulled out before he was aware of It
and in spite of considerable remons-
trance on his part, continued on its
way without allowing him time to get
off. 1t was q serious predicament.
Forsyth was the first stopping place
and to have gone there and then re-
turned would have entailed o great
loss of time. Bill spent the time be-
tween here and Keogh bordering on
the best way Of getting out of q very
involuntary journey to Forsyth.
There was only one thing to do, which
was to make jump for 1t. He chose
a spot just opposite the post where
there was high bank of snow, and
timing his jump carefully managed Ia
alight exactly In the middle of the
rather moist landing place. But here
was the rub--a pair Of new shoes on,
a consideration not by any means 10
be scorned. However, he stepped out
manfully and footed 1t back to town,
inwardly lamentiDg at every step the
day he had been persuaded to buy a

A Mystery.

How the human system ever recov-
ers from the bad effects of the nause-
Gus medicines often literally poured
into il for the suggestive relief Of dys-
pepsia, liver complaint, constipation,
rheum atism and other ailments is q
mystery. The mischief done by bad
medicine is scarcely less than that
caused by disease. II they who are
weak, bilious, 'dyspeptic, constipated
or rheumatic, would oftener be guided
by the experience Of invalids who
have thoroughly tested Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they would in every
instance obtain the speediest aid de-
rivable from rational medication.
This m edicine Is searching and at
the same time thoroughly safe REM
edy, derived from vegetable sources,
and possessing, in consequence of its
basis of pure spirits, properties as a
medicinal stimulant not to be found
in the fiery local bitters and stimu-
lants often resorted to- by the debili-
tated, dyspeptic and languid.

A sudden turn TO the right, and directly

bold and rugged outline against the west

mass of solid rock, some forty feet thick
and fifty feet broad, spanning a chasm

2l0 feet On the eastern side is a jagged
place where an immense mass of rock has
fallen When it fell il is imposs ible TO
say, but it must have fallen centuries
ago, as not particle Of debris remains in
the chasm below. The rock is a blush
lime stone, streaked with faint lines of
white. The grain is very fine and firm,
and one loses at first the impressiveness
md majestic grandeur of the bridge in
speculating on the tremendous force that
scooped out, as il were, the immense mass
of rock and earth that at some time filed

On the under side of the bridge, and al
most in the center, the lichens and mosses
have so grown as to almost perfectly rep
resent the American eagle with out
stretched wings, clasping the shield in its
talons. Well authenticated records state
that this peculiar growth existed in the
middle of the eighteenth century. Stand
ing about 100 feet west of the bridge, and
looking back under it, a welldefined pro
file hkenest of young woman may be
seen. From the road above, the bridge
can not be seen, nor is there any inGica-
ton of its existence, unless one leaves the
roadway and goes about twenty feet to
the west. From this point the small
stream rushing through the glen and I'M

There is peculiar idea in the community
that gun will last Tor an indefinite period.
and no doubt the statement that the big gun
at Sandy Hook has II great record BECAUSE il
was fired Ia times will strike people as extra
ordinary. Yet again, like any other mans
handiwork, it can only do certain amount
of work, and when the enormous shocks and
pressure which a gun is compelled 10 stand is
considered, the amount of work it really dOt.s
is surprising. During the civil war the limit
of work OF tifteen-iuch gun was considered
reached when l,0O rounds had been fired,
and this, too, when the charge was only fifty
pounds of powder and IL I5Opound projectile.
In europe the krupp guns are bursting and
becnminS useless all the time, and the prinCi-
pie Of the construction Of the gun, or the ma
terial of the gun, is not necessarily con-
demncd. Recently an English steel gun rs

steamer Collingwood, burst after firing three
rounds, and the government has prohibited
the firing of the vessels other guns unless &C

The Sea-serpent a Probability.

We have then, as described by its OBJ
servers, an animal utterly unknown 10
the zoologist, at least as q comte mporary
! form. The only inference therefore Is
that it is a survival from some group of
animals now on the verge of extinction
! W hen. however, we ask what this group
Is, there are two equally good answers.
Ii may be a survivor of the saurians-pro-
bahly the enaliosaurian-to which for IN,
as known TO the paleontologist, it corre-
spends with sufficient eXactness. Or it
may be a survivor of some snake like
cetacean, such as the zeuglodon, TO whose
habits it largely conforms. Most scientists
Notable Professors Proctor and Agassiz
incline to the former supposition. There
is, however. considerable ground for the
latter. All its motions are cetacean; it is
uniformly described as thruStiny its head
out of water-a custom TO which sperm
whales are much addicted; its undulatory
movement may be seen illustrated by
every school OF PURPOSES; it rises sud
denly to the surface, or sinks like lead 10
the bottom, as every whaleman knows
his victim can from the peculiar structure
of its lungs; and its harmlessness is also
cetacean, as whales seldom attack save
under exceptional circumstances.
But whether the so called sea- serpent is
ZeuglodOn or an enaliosaurian, we shall
never know for surety till we secure its
skeleton for the zoologist to classify. And
very possibly this may yet be done. The
existence of the devilfish was long denied
but finally specimen was obtained that
silenced all cavillers. Heretofore OBJ
servers Of the sea-serpent have either
stared in childish wonder, run away in
abject fear or peppered the monster with
harmless shot. Some day an old whaler
with a harpoon may make a capture that
will bring hih fame. IN the meantime
we may as well admit that the man who
announces the temperance of the So
called sea-serpent is not necessarily a
deluded ignoramous or a falsifier. Doubt
less many of the monsters reported by
summer excurtiOnists have no more real
existence than the semblance of a whale
which Polonius saw in the clouds, but
nevertheless there is in actual life and
presumable vigor a curious but harmless
marine animal enormously called the
sea-serpent To believe all the stories
that are told Of il is ere lulity, but to deny
the possibility Of its existence is presump-
tion.-Providence Journal
