BIH's Marrow Escape.

w. w. Scott came near being
bitten by q rattlesnake last week
while on his way to the forest to
chop some wood. Just as he wentto
cross a rail fence he happened to
look down before he placed his foot
on the opposite side, Had he not
done so he would soon have rested
on a big four.foot RATHER. To say
that Bill was scared dosen't express
it. He jumped back, crossed the
fence at another place and with a
stroke that would have killed an
elephant, severed its head from its
body, burying the axe deep into the
ground. 1t has made quite change
in Bill. Next Sunday he was at the
church-house long before anybody
else arrived, and when the minister
appeared and finished his sermon
Bill didn't wait until the contribu-
tion basket was presented to him,
but went up voluntarily and gave
freely for the support OF the minis
terial cause.

Is steam ont of date? asks Farm,
Field and Fireside. Prominent rail.
road men say that the days of the
steam locomotive are numbered. Be-
fore long the noise, smoke and cin-
ders which make railroad journey so
unpleasant will become only an un-
pleasant memory. The genie which is
to accomplish this marvellous change
is one with whose works we are all be-
come familiar. His name is electric
ity. Electric locomotives run by pow
erful storage batteries have been sue
cessfully tested by number of diff
ferent roads. The steam locomotive
is expensive to build, expensive to
run, and entails large constant cost
for repairs. Tie running expenses
average at least twenty-five cents a
mile, which is many times the cost of
running q locomotive with storage
battery. The batteries are made to
carry train about a hundred miles
and can be changed in shorter time
than is necessary fol taking coal and
water. The Pennsylvania Railroad is
said to be about to make the change
from steam to electricity and other
prominent lines have the matter under
advisement. Were it not for the vast
amount Of capital in locomotives the
change would have been made before
now.

A enthusiastically feminine affair
was witnessed at a German picnic in
New York the other day, relates the
New Orleans Picayune. 1t was during
the performance of the japanese aero
bats. One of the performers, FIVE
year old boy, was on the top of thir-
ty-fve foot ladder, balanced by a man
below. The man lost control of
the ladder and the boy began to fall.
All thought that the boy would meet
a horrible death, but an old woman
ran forward and caught the youngster,
saving him from being killed. When
the audience was relieved of the ten
sion murmur Of applause went up
and the plucky woman tainted.
