Col Pat Donan,s Narrow Escape.

Col Pat DOMAIN. the western orator, who
says he is going to be the priest to unite the
north and south by means of marrying oil
lot of pretty girls from Dixie to young men
in the north, has had many narrow escapes
He saved his life once by abstaining from
game of poker and reading the Bible. A few
wears after the war he was a passenger on a
big Mississippi steamboat bound to St Louis
from New Orleans The colonel was asked
to take a hand in game of draw poker that
was going on in the forward part Of the
cabin 1t was Sunday morning, and sud
den impulse seized him to read something in
stead OF playing poker. He had nothing to
read until he thought Of little Bible that a
pretty young girl cousin gave him in New
Orleans, extracting promise from him that
he would sooner or later look between its
leaves
In order to keep the poker players and the
at him il they saw him reading Bible, he
went to his stateroom, situated about the
middle Of the cabin. He had been reading
from the Psalms of David about ten minutes
when a terrific explosion took place, killing
outright ell the poker players and the men in
the front part of the cabin. The colonel was
badly shaken up, but he managed to save a
half dozen ladies by fighting q lot of deck
hands and capturing q small boat He took
to the water after pushing off the little boat
filed with women, and was picked up three
miles below, frozen nearly to death.-New

The Famous Sickles Trial.

The case not only commanded attention IN
America, but was cause celebre wherever
the English language was spoken. 1t was a
bloody murder, with no palliating circum-
stance save that Dan Sickles defended his do
nestle honor under the Mosaic idea that the
adulterer could be killed if caught In the act.
There was a splendid array Of counsel. Car
lysle and Ould, the latter then district attor-
ney and afterwards prominent in the Con-
federate war department, prosecuted Dan
Sickles The latter was defended by Edwin
II. Stanton, the golden mouthed James T.
Brady, of New York; John Graham, the
great criminal lawyer, yet alive; Magruder
and Charlton, of Virginia, and the brilliant
and gifted Gen. Thomas Meghan- Stanton's
speech acquitted the prisoner.
Stanton's idea was accepted by the defense,
the killing was admitted and the defense took
the ground that the provocation was sufl-

Best again asked all to drink, which all de-
clined. Best went to the front door and
called Parker who was sitting in the wagon,
round the corner. When he called, Best
was standing on the step holding on to
tie door or casing. Edward Batson told Best
Parker can'tcome I'M here" Don't think
Best made any reply. Batson stepped to-
wards Best, telling him to go away and not
raise any trouble, for IL George Batson should
come there would be rumpus. Batson then
showed Best out and shut the door. Best
wheeled and caught the handle of the door
and then the witness heard pistol shot,
Batson had no weapon while he was shut
ting the door. Batson did not make any
threats to Best nor talk in angry manner.
