Saved by His Beauty.

II is rarely, indeed. that n mans life Is
preserved by his beauty, for it is quail
ty more likely TO lose than to save, but it
was the case with Lord Ponsonby. He
told me the anecdote himself as far as
the risk OF life which he ran, but he left
others TO inform me Of the cause Of his
rescue. He was not 20 when he passed
through Paris in 1891. War had not been
declared, but there was a strong feeling
against England. At that time the lamps
were hung across the streets-hence the
CIV. "A la ianternel" When any unhap-
py victim was taken the process Of
hanging him was a very simple one.
Lord Ponsonby, walking in the Rue st.
Honore, was 50 unfortunate IS to fall in
with the mob, who seized him with the
CITY: "VoiIa un agent de Pitt. un sacre
Anglais! la lanternew is too fine a
boy TO be hanged.) The lamp was taken
down. the cords placed round his neck,
and he was actually hanging in the air
when the women, who played such a
prominent part throughout the revolu-
ton. rushed forward and cut the cords.
"C'est un trop joh garcon pour etre pen
dur' was the cry. he fell on the pave
ment and was Immediately carried off
by his protectors and carefully tended.

A friend Of mine, who occupied an
important consular post at Singapore,
had very narrow escape from death
Ike this: He had Malay house steward
who alone had access 10 his bedroom.
This man was apparently most devoted
10 him, but the wife Of one of the under
servants having complained that the
steward had offered her IN affrOnt, the
consul had severely reprimanded him
and forbidden him 10 speak TO the wom-
an again ON pain Of dismissal The next
morning my friend, who was an exceed
ingly early riser, left his couch at the
first rays of dawn, and went as usual to
the marble tank In the recess from his
bedroom, where he always began his
toilet with a shower bath. He was on
the point of stepping into the tank, when
fls attention was attracted by something
glittering in the half darkness.
He stepped back and drew aside the
lattice, admitting the full light of morn
ing. There in the marble basin, where
in another moment he would have placed
his bare foot, lay coiled up an echys, with
head erect, preparing to spring. lie
summoned the steward, but he was no
where 10 be found, and he was never
heard Of again. The other servants
killed the snake, which had undoubted-
ly been placed there by the steward from
a motive of revenge.-E L. Wakeman

Living Ia San Francisco today are
Two persons whose strange experiences
have lOng been a mystsry % me. Two
years szo . Boston gentleman came ous
to the coast he brought with him his
companion, a young woman IN the last
STAGES Of oonsun ptlOn. she was pretty
and talented and Ten years younger than
her eecOrt
One day her com paniOR was out Of the
city. During his absence she vas taken
suddenly with a sinking spell and the
landlady became greatly alarmed. In
two hours the invalid was pronounced
dead by the ladies' In the boarding house
who were in attendance upon her. As
the day advanced the l2ndlady, seeing
10 signs Of the gentleman's return, vis-
tied al undertaker's near by and prep
arations were made for laying out the
corpse.
The body was cold and stiff when the
undertaken arrived. He viewed the
corpse and went back 20 his shop for his
assistant. During his absence the miss
ing companion of the dead young woman
arrived upon the scene. 1t was now
about O'Clock in the afternoon. Upon
being informed Of her death five hours
before the gentleman uttered an exclam-
alton OF surprise. Then rushing up to
the room where the body lay he closed
the door behind him and turned the key.
When the undertaken returned he was
refused admission. Two hotrs after the
gentleman emerged from the room and
ordered two suppers sent TO the apart
ment.
Later the young lady was seen sitting
upright in bed, eating heartily. Her com
panion had brought her back TO life by n
method Of rubbing and physical manipu-
latiOn known only TO himself. Twice

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-03-14

WE DON'T know what pressure will be
required to accomplish it, but whatever it
Is should be brought to bear to relieve the
strain upon the Salt Lake postoffice, and
bring that Office up to the requirements of
the city and the times. The department
does not seem to realize that the business
Of the office has doubled within year, and
that it is growing every day; it does not
seem to understand that Salt Lake is not a
country village, else the postoffice would
not be kept down to a village equipment.
How would it do to ask the postmaster
general to send out an agent to
gaze upon the long line of men
chat run back from the delivery windows
from morning until nightl That might
have some effect if it were also shown
that the Office employees were toiling
early and late, wearing themselves out in a
vain endeavor to keep even with their
work and meet the demands of the public.
The department officials have often
enough been informed of the true condi-
ton of affairs, but the matter must have
slipped from their memories and the re-
ports gone irlP out-of- the-way pigeon
holes, for it cannot be that it is the desire
of anybody in Washington that the Salt
Lake postoffice should fall so far short of
the requirements.
