HOW BABYLON BUILDER BROKE UP HIS
WEDDING TRIP ON THE LONG ISL

There was disconsolate bride in Babylon. Long

then startled and then a victim OF fright. and II
was not until yesterday morning that her fears
were allayed. She had been married only few
hours when she arrived in the village, and the
bridegroom had disappeared. She came under the
escort of her brother-n-aw who appeared as anx-
ious as the bride the disappearance or the
husband The young woman was Miss stella r.

riage took place in Brooklyn on Thursday night;
At 10 o'clock Mr. and Mrs Craft, accompanied by
Daniel Craft who had been best man at the we'd
ding boarded a Long Island train for their Babylon
home
All or mostly all Of the trains from Brooklyn are
broken up at Jamaica, and the different cars at

Long Island City. During the run from the Flat
bush-aye station to Jamaica Mr.. Craft .eft MS

TO the smoking car enjoy smoke. Jamaica

deep in the enjoyment of his cigar and forgot all
about changing cars and when he started back 10
find his bride and his brother they were not to be
found He appealed to train hand and received
the startling information that he was speeding at
the rate Of thirty miles an hour toward Far Rock
away and that in all probability his friends were
travelling at about the same rate toward Babylon
He could not return that night. after he reached
Far Rockaway Meanwhile the bride and her
brother-in-law waited for the bridegroom. until
he had time 10 smoke a dozen cigars, and then,
thinking ne had gone TO sleep. the brother sought
him He was no, 10 be found. The conductor was
appealed TO- and he made pretty accurate guess
what had happened. only he said 1t was possible
he left the car at Jamaica and entered the wrong
car and might be speeding away on any one OF
the half dozen or more OF the roads branches.
The brides fright which had succeeded her
anger because Of her husbands long stay in the
smoker now changed to anxiety. but she recov-
worse for his involuntary trip TO Far Rockaway

Miss Maud Johns, of Los Gatos,
CAL, the brave young woman who but
few weeks ago swung beneath the
ties OF the high railroad bridge span
ming yawning chasm seventy-fve
feet in order to ESCAPE death from an
on-coming express train, has been the
principal in another sensational oc-
currence in which her rare presence
of mind proved for the second time to
be her salvation.
Miss Johns was carrying q lighted
lamp through the hallway of her resi-
dence about 10 o'clock when she sud
denly tripped and fell. The lamp was
dashed against the wall and LroRe in
to thousand pieces. The blazing
oil ignited Miss Johns's clothes and
also set fire to the woodwork.
Quick as n flash she dashed into her
bedroom near by aud leaping into bed
succeeded after few minutes in
smothering the fire by means of the
bed clothes, after which the girl turned
her attention to the house. The
flames by this time were rapidly run
ming up the woodwork and side walls
of the hallway. At this Iuncture help
arrived and the fire was put out Miss
Johns will nurse n badly burned hand
and arm for some days as the result of
tho accident.

Did you know that the throat has u
brain of its own? | suppose few peo,
pie are aware OF it, but its fnct,
There is a small gangiion which exar-
cises direct control of the muscles Of
the throat and acts as its brain. o.
course, it Is subse1vient to the genu-
inc brain, but, at the same time, does
good deal OF independent thinking
for itself. II is very timil aad sus.
picious Of any strange objects that
come near the throat.
For this reason it is very difficult
for physician to operate on the
throat. Before anything can be done
IN this direction, it is necessary for
the operator to gain the confidence Of
the little brain that dominates it. Ii
frequently takes weeks before this
confidence can be secured, and until
it is secured it is impossible to per-
form any operation.
Woe to the man who attempts
rough treatment to the throat before
gaining tho little brains confidence
His operations will be resented with
violent paroxysms, first of the throat,
then of the diaphragm, and, il tho
operator still persists, tho patient will
be thrown into convulsions. Still
more curious Is the fact that this little
brain has memory, aud ii once
frightened in this way ii is impossible
to ever gain its confidence, no matter
how gentle the operator may be. -

There exists in Mexico one of tho
most remarkable phenomena of which

Gallant Rescue by a Girl,

Few more gallant feats have ever
been performed by women that that of
Miss Evans, the daughter of DR..
Evans, of Hythe, on Southampton
Water, in England. Walking on the
the pier with friend, she heard the
cry Of three persons whose boat had
been capsized near the pier. Run.
ming down the steps, she sprang in the
water and soon brought the one near
est, n woman, safely to the steps. Then
she swan off again to the others, a
man and a girl. Waiting her oppor-
tunity she managed to seize them
both, and supported them until rope
was thrown to her, and she was then
able to get the man to the pier. The
girl was going down for the third
time, when Miss Evans dived, brought
her up to the surface, and took her
also to the pier, thus saving three
lives. 1t is difficult to know which is
the more remarkable - tho courage
displayed, or the skill with which,
hampered by her clothes, she succeed
ed in avoiding the drowning grip that
is SO often fatal TO those who attempt
rescues, and so brought the three per-
sons, one after another, in safety to
the pier. 1t is n feat of which the best
male swimmer, unhampered by gar
ments, would have every right to feel
most proud, and, executed as it was
quite, without precedent in the annals
