Took Away the harvard Man. Breath.

Two men were walking down town TO
business the other DAY. One of them
was a Harvard man. The other was
graduated at a most venerable and yet
somewhat formidable rival Of that uni
versity whose motto is Lux et Neritas. !"
They had arrived at City Hall park. and
were picking their doubtful way through
the crowd which was surging between
the elevated station and Frankfort street.
Suddenly the Yale man exclaimed:
'Hold on q minute. old fellow! want
to speak to friend"
The Harvard man turned and saw his
friend in the act of shaking hands with
a fine looking, middle aged man who
wore long silken beard. and whose sun
Drowned face and powerful frame showed
the good effect of many vacation moons
spent upon the wave and in the depths
of the forest. The Yale man continued
in earnest conversation with the hand
some looking man for a few moments,
and then, after a leave taking which was
almost brotherly on both sides, joined
his comrade, who said:
"Who was that mani"
"Who?" said his friend; didn't you
recognize him? Why, we sat near him
and his family on the grand stand at the

ATnbulatorV Rails.

A st. Louis civil engineer says the
rails on the ST. Louis bridge were never
stationary, but constantly crept 70 the
east; that is, in the direction of the
heaviest travel. The rate Of progress,
be said, was about 260 feet in the year,
or would be if the rails were permitted
to creep as they pleased, which, of course,
they are not permitted 10 do.
1t reminded him Of hill in southwest
Missouri, over which a turnpike road
was constructed, and, do what they
would, the people could not keep the
road up and down the sides Of that hill
in good condition. The stones would
creep to the bottom, and in six months
the road would be as bad as ever They
finally had to take up the gravel and
macada1n and replace them with good
sized blocks of rough stone.-St. Louis

Shaft That Scared Two Men
About as tight place as I ever got
into, said Comstock miner, was some
years ago at the old Empire shaft, Gold
hin. Myself and another man were
down in the shaft for the purpose OF
trimming il up, as the swelling ground
was squeezing the sides ard it was Q
good deal out of shape.
We were not on cage, but simply on
platform of planks, with ropes going
up from the corners to the main cable,
which was of hemp. When we reached
tight place in the shaft we stopped and
trimmed out the guides. then went or
till another such place was reached
At one point, having given the signal
TO lower, we went down some distance.

the bell rope to give the signal to stop.
but we found that it had wound round
nail some distance above, and we could
not use it. The engineer knew nothing
Of our trouble, and continued TO lower
away. There was no station near, and
on al sides rose the smooth walls OF tho
shaft, leaving Us suspended over the
horrible chasm.
Down upon Us came the heavy cable.
We feared every moment that the plat
form would turn over or would be press
ed through the tight place and drop from
under us. All we could do was 10 get
hold Of the cable and keep the coils Of il
under our feet as il came down. Should
the platform turn over or drop from I'M
der Us we might be able TO save our lives
by hanging on 70 the cable.
We shouted up the shaft till we were
hoarse, but no one heard our cries. and
steadily down came the cable. causing
Us great trouble to keep on top OF It's
coils. We felt that the great weight
must soon start the platform, when both
would most likely be hurled to the bot
tom of the shaft.
Finally, TO our great relief, the cable
ceased 10 descend. For long time we
waited in suspense, not knowing what
would be the rext move Of those above.
At last, however, we heard the voice Of
man shouting down 10 rs from the
nearest station above. We explained
our perilous position in q few words.
and at length the great cable began 70
crawl slowly up tho shaft again. Still,
being afraid the platform would give
way, we were obliged to keep hold OF
the rope and dance about en- the coils a.
they Unwound.
1t was tedious business, and was all
tie time the matter Of the toss Of cent
whether we got out alive or went TO the
bottom; but at last the platform tight
ened up under us and we began 10 AS
cend. Our work was over then and We
felt safe. On arrival at the surface we
found that the engineer had concluded
that we were going too far. and hating
or stopping his engine had sent q man
down to the station to find out if any
thing had gene wrong.
