\ Preachers Enoounter At er ste'l NJ IA
Pair %. kifenr.


Rev DR.. Daniel Hudson is a well-known
Campbellite preacher of san Bernardino
county. lie has sought souls among the
hardest mining camps and the toughest
NUMBERING localities among the mountains
OF Arizona and southern California Tor
two decades He had an uncommon eX-
perience the other day as he was COM
ing on horseback down the grade OF the
san JacintO mountain. He saw at the
edge Of the chaparral two little cata-
mount kittens playfully rolling ana tulnD-
ling over one another on the creek bank.
The preacher wanted to catch the pref
~. hob-tailed. innocent-looking punches OF
fun and fur alive and 10 take them home
as curiosities. He succeeded. and con-
signed them 10 one side Of the saddle
bags. the contents OF which consisted OF
HYMN books and Bibles. Mr. Hudson
started his horse for the house Of the
nearest neighbOr-a distance OF six miles
or more. The reverend gentleman was
riding slowly along through the deepen
ing gloom OF the forest Ia thoughtful,
housekeeping mood when snriil screen
behind him and up the mountain side re-
minded him that II was growing dark
and there IVES rapidly approaching
prospect OF fight with the parents or
tie kittens.
Disnounting he secured n heavy hick-
orv club before the cats arrived. but not
any too soon. Both the old cats appear
ed At the same time in the road ahead
of the preacher. They had undoubtedly
scented the kittens and made directly
for their cantor. one Of the catamounts,
an unusually large and ferocious male
made a spring for the dOminie's throat
but received a whack with the hickory
which laid him on his back. Before Dr.
Hudson could recover his guard the fe-
male caught him by the shoulder as II
lcaped and raked him. tearing a section
of his coat and about six inches OF his
skin and flesh into ribbons.
Nv this time tie male had got on his
feet again. and both cats prepared to
spring at once Hudson, seeing that the
affair was getting serious, backed up
against tree and awaited their on
slaught. He didn't have 10 wait long, as
the male. snarling with rage. made
lean at his throat, while the female
crept 10 one side as If TO flank him.
This fact saved the preacher. as it gave
him time to receive the biggest one
which he skilfully did by jumping to the
right and striking it as IL struck the
tree where he had just stood. The blow
knocked II senseless. The female made
a flying leap, but another quick move
ment allowed her to strike the base OF
the tree where the preacher had stood.
He gave il one hard blow on the side,
but slipped and fell when the cat buried
her teeth and claws I'm his Lex. IT was
now a rolling. mmbing fight for very
brief period. but the domlnie's good luck
did not desert him. He finally killed both
animals.-San Francisco Examiner

RUNAV4T FREIGHT TEAM.
Thrilling Experience on Boston and
Albany Road.

The men on Conductor Norton's freight
train on the Boston and Albany railroad
had a thrilling ride recently, and the
recollection OF that experience on run
away train over the grades of the west
ern hills Will remain fresh i'm their minds
for years. II was IN the small hours OF
the morning that the engineer OF Nor
toms train composed OF tWenty-seVen
heavy-oaded coal cars and five "refrig-
orators" noticed as the cars struck the
grade near Beckett that the air-braSes
did not seem TO hold. His hand went
promptly TO the Whistlc-pull for the hand
brakes. but the brakemen were slow about
their grip on the wheels aud a Few min
utes delay was fatal The brake shoes
gripped al the wheels and scattered SHOW
ers of sparks as they rolled on in that
mad rush Of the train down the steep
grades and around the sharp curves or
the western passes. where ofttmes sew
onty feet below them the river ran. and
into which each moment they expected 10
be- dashed Right through Middleneld and
Chester plunged the train at sixty miles
or more an hour waking the villages
from their slumber by its thunderous
passage down the mountain range. They
could have seen-if there had been see
ing-the brakemen cllnging with scared
faces 10 the sWaying cars. the engineer
and fireman hanging TO the sides of the
cab. and heard perhaps the sharp snap
as rod after rod gave way on the loco
motive under strain Of the rapid rotation
OF the drive-wheels.
The conductor. to save his caboose from
being snapped off on some sharp curve
into the river-bed below, cut loose from
the train and left the cars 10 their fate.
Right by Middlehcld a man watching the
ledge OF ice stepped leisurely across the
track and had TO jump for his life as
he saw the freight was going at express
speed. II thought IL was my last ride,
said the engineer. But the heaviy-laden
cars kept the track. and II was with
sigh of relief as the swift-runnng train
struck the two miles of level track De-
yond Chester that the men saw that then
the force OF the brakes began to be felt,
and gradually the monster runaway be-
gan TO get under control. When the mo-
mentum ceased the train came to a stand
still and IL was found that the running
gear OF the locomotive was smashed be-
Vond all possibility OF moving the cars.
IL was only by the help OF an extra en-
CINE that the disabled machine. with its
string of cars, was finally towed TO this
city and the wild ride was over. Sixty
miles an hour is fast time for express
trains. and at this point the Boston and
Albany expresses are only allowed 10
reach maximum speed OF thirty miles
an hour-half and probably much less
than half. the rate OF speed that these
men took in that fierce plunge down the
hill" from Beckett TO Chester. Fortunate
IN the track was clear ahead and not a
person was injured. Springfield Republic

-Four Public school Men Have Worked

And stm Saks' bicycle contest is UNI

When the house Of A. Saks q Co.
made the offer 10 give bicycle TO the
boy getting the largest number of good
English words from the letters contained
I'm their firm name, they never dreamed
that such a mass OF manuscript would
roll into their establishment, or that so
many words could be made from their
name.
Mr.. Cans. the manager of the store.
showed me yesterday "a pile Of papers
that had been received since the contest
begun that would almost hll a coal cart.
Messrs Chas L. Rady. secretary of the
city School Board, W O. English, prn-
cipal of Elba School Leroy $. Edwards.
principal OF Springfield School. and Elihu
Morrissette principal of Leigh School,
have been hard al work on this pile Of
manuscript for several days. and all felt
certain that they would end their labors
last night but the work was too great.
They will start in again to-day, however,
They say they will finish il up tonight
and make the award for publication i'm
Wednesdays Times. even if they have to
work all night. They have already sift-
cd the papers down TO three or four. and
the prize lays between these. Saks *
Co. regret TINS delay, and they are nearly
as much disappointed as the boys. T4e
matter however rs entirely out of their
hands. and no one can blame them. The
trouble lies with the scheme II was
too biz. There will be six certainly. and
probably eight. more of these contests
but the number of letters are reduced
and the work viii be much easier done.
