WILD RIDE ON AN AvALANCHE:.-A
well.known merchant of Victoria, B.
c., Henry Saunders, has arrived there
from Alberni, lumber settlement on
the west coast of Vancouver Island. He
went there to look up some gold-quartz
property. Mr.. Saunders was in bur-
nv to get home, so he took short cut
over the mountains, which were cover
ed with snow. About half way across
he trod on soft spot, and began TO
sink out of sight. While be was strug-
Cling to extricate himselfa huge bonid-
er broke lose from cliff just above PIN
aud rolled down the mountain. Every
thing else Whereabouts began to slide
lust at that time, and Mr.. Saunders
soon discovered that be was In the
track OF an avalanche. It was des-
perate chance. but he decided 10 20
with the avalanche. Before he really
realized what had happened, ne was
travelling down the mountain al e1.
press train speed. He estimates that
he covered four miles in less that hfIeen
minutes. Finally he found himself,
half stunned, in the Alberni river. He
swan ashore and waited for a stage
from Nanaimo to come along. The
passengers he met could scarcely be-
iieve his story, but his general appear
ance indicated that he had been having
q troublesome time. SIT was very
close CALL he said, land an experience
that l am not likely to forget. l had
barely stepped on the soft snow when
OF it started, carrying me with it. |
hardly knew what was happening until
l found myself struggling in the icy
water Of the river"

dorf, Pa, Saturday night by Frank
ManderDack. Hearing commotion
in his cellar, he went down with a
lamp to investigate. AS soon as be
reached the foot of the stairs he was
attacked by large number OF rats:
They were big, hungry fellows, and
they fought furiously. Manderback
seized a cleaver and battled with ell
his might, killing p of the rodents.
The struggle was desperate and the
rats ran all over his body, biting him
in a number of places before he con-
quered them.

THE HOLIDAY.

One thing the poorest OF the poor may give
thanks for is that this Thanksgiving weather
is as perfect as perfection itself.
Even a feeling of gloom resulting from
excusab,e discomfort must pass away under
the genial influence of z orious sunshine and
an atmosphere sarcharged with oxygen.
stimulating like gond cd wine, bracing, but
not Intoxicating, wooing the celebrant CT the
day from other stimulants to partake only
of that set forth by nature.
1t is weil, however, for the comfortable
to remember that it is very difficult for
sunshine to penetrate To the home where
the iardcr is almost constantly empty, with
the coal b,x in a similar condition. Where
the bread box yawns, there also yawns the
stomach.
Thateyen on this day nf general feasting
the reverse side OF the brilliant picture
may not be forgotten, The Times presents
in companion columns a suggestion of the
feast and the famine the merry and the
sad, the comfortable and the miserable.
1t is but faint flashlight upon frag-
Isent, which might be multiplied inter-
minably, but 1t is enough To inspire linger-
ing thought in regard tn a remedy for all
these unequal conditions in which SO many
OF the deserving suffer and many of the
undeserving live upon the fat of the land.

REorIEscAr DUMAS.

Alexandra Dumas. son, is dead, and so
The name of Dumas. which has been proni-
ncnt in the literature of the world for most
Of the nineteenth century, passes into
history.
1t is doubtful If humanity is better for the
publication OF any OF the innumera bic novels
which hear. the name of Dumas. 1t is
doubtful If either father or son cared
whether the world was better for them.
They wrote in accord with the emo
tions of their people and time.
Their contributions to the fiction of gush.
sensation. unhealthful romance and nause-
ating sensation were Indicative of the spirit
that pervated France during luxurious en-
pires, instead of the practical and literal
days of tn eRepublic.
All such abnormal offspring of diseased
fancy must go down before the analytical.
philosophical, realistic, literal, artist
cally constructed novel. which, in recent
days. has led the thought of the whole
world in new directions. Even romancers
have been affected by this tendency. Pla-
tonical love making and ''fine writing in
description have been eliminated. and now
find place only in the trashy weeklies.
Thomas Hardy, prince Of the romancers of
the time. is SO realistic that his works are
expurgated for sensitive American read
ing. Zola, declared by capable critics
like HoweIls, to be the greatest novelist
of the period, is a profound politician,
social economist and puncturer of shams
in almost every chapter of his many vol
umeS.
1t may be safely said that the work OF
the Dumas family will be The last OF its
kind. and that among lovers Of good litera-
ture of the present and future 1t will take its
place merely as an illustration OF the
thought of a peculiar period In France. and
as wonderful example OF the prolificness
of father and n son in the production
OF marvellous rot.
The evening times., 1895-11-28
CHARLES COUNTY VERDICT.

The conviction of the negro, johnson.
for the murder OF Capt Revell, owner Of
n small Schooner doing business on the
Potomac. by a Charles county, Md, jury,
and the sentence OF the man TO Imprisonment
for two years aud six months, seems to
lie a miscarriage of ustice.
Every atom Of testimony offered in the
case showed that the captain WIS brutal
to his men, had continually abused them,
and that when johnson struck him the
fatal blow with n handspike the captain
was pointing n pistol at the ma n and threat
ening to kill him.
The evidence WAS clear that the negro
acted in self defense. and iustifiable hom
icidc was the barshcst verdict which any
intelligent jury should have rendered.
Simultaneous with this comes the news
from Doyicstown, Penn, that members of
a jury confess they agreed to verdict
.convicting several boys of an act which
resulted i'll the manning of several persons,
simply because they were anxious to get
home, and that they believed the boys
were innocent. The Doylestown judge
remarked that such performance was
enough to shake his faithin the jury ystcIn,
and the verdict of the La Plata jury in
the johnson case is another argument that
the system needs reforming.
The evening times., 1895-11-28
Several Curious.

A large number Of cicycles are used in
the chase OF kang aroos In Australia. Auui-
ed with rifles, Tia" shooters are able to en-
circls. the escaping. flock. and can bring do wn
many a kanS aroo b. their noisclcss ap-

In Paris there Is a wine shop for every

1t is a curious fact that Ii Hung Chang.
who Is not n tobacco smoker. has one OF the
finest collections of SMOKING utensils In the
world. He has pipes Of All ages and from
all parts of the world. He keeps
adding constantly to his treasure in this
lane. Cigar holders OF every variety-some
or them exceeliin-ly cosily-form an inter
esting feature of his collection.
Several books of che srcond and third CEN
turies have leaden leaves. One such, in the
British Museum. hsse six ieaden leaves, with
hinges and a clasp.
THE estimated ojst Of the new canal,
which will allow VESSELS OF 1000 tons bur

the ccminunes OF The localities surrounding
Brussels.
In Russia a yourg man does not attain
his ma ajority until be Is twenty-six.
The recent severe weather in New Zea-
land killed the Wild ducks in thousands.
Two Arabs who were at the Worlds
Fair, in Chicago, have just sailed frum
Boston. They were over six months walking
from Chicago 10 Boston, having lost all
their wealth before leaving the former
city. They departed from Buston in a
cattle ship, and ON their arrival in Liver
pool they VIII continue their Journey on
foot for home.
Little alligators are admired as draw
ipg-rouIn peis in some OF the fashionable
houses of Paris.
Storekeepers in China seldom give credit.
II their patrons need money, they borrow
it OF the mnney-lenders.
Japan claims the Oldest wooden build
ing the world. 1t is a leg storehouse in
Yara. which Is Eow used TO shelter some
of the Aiikado's art treasures An age OF
1,2OO years is claimed for il. Some OF the
logs are nearly worn away by the weather.
The recent discovery of an old map in
Milan would seem To indicate that the
Portuguese discovered Brazil, by sailing
from the lower African coast, a distance
OF 100 miles. In 1447, or some forty
years ahead of Columbus.
The evening times., 1895-11-28
Quay Touched Up.

If Chicago knocks out Pittsburg, Senator
Quay can have standing room in San
Francisco for a back lick.-Frisco Call.
The only thing necessary to be said In re-
gard to the Quay Presidential boom is that
Quay is too ievel-headed to take any stock
in it.-Kansas City Journal.
Some recent Republican candidates in
New York and Pennsylvania can assure
Presidential aspirants that the support Of
Piatt and Quay is far from being a hoodoo.-
Kansas City Journal.
Republicans profess to be surprised that
Senator Quay is seeking the Pennsylvania
delegation for himselr. Why not? Mr..
Quay is typical Pennsylvania Republican
who has often been honored by his State
and who many moons ago announced his
intention OF biOtting out the ''niachine'
in Quaker politics.-St. Paul Globe.
