A Battle With an Eagle.

Miss Anna Mcdowell nineteen years
old, resident Of Quakake Valley,
near Wilkesbarre, Pa, rescued child
from the claws Of big eagle Monday,
and after a desperate struggle, in
which she was badly wounded, killed
the bird.
Nettie Hinkle, three years old, was
playing along a small stream. Miss
Mcdowell was on her way to visit her
aunt, when she heard the child's
screams, and rushing to the rescue,
found Nettie in the talons of large
bald eagle, which had boldly attacked
her, but did not seem able to carry
her away. The rescuer pulled Nettie
from the birds talons, but when she
attempted to take the wounded child
in her arms the bird attacked her
fercely.
Miss Mcdowell would not retreat
and leave the child behind, 50, stand
ing over her, she beat off the attacks
of the bird as best she could. The
eagle became furious. 1t whirled
about and dashed, beak and talons
extended, at the brave girl, who beat
it off again and again with her arms
The beak and talons wounded Miss
Mcdowell severely, and as she did not
have a weapon she was unable to re-
taliate with effect.
With gashes on her arms, head and
shoulders, she was rapidly losing
strength, when she thought OF her hat
pin. Grasping this firmly she made
repeated stabs at the bird, which, de-
spite its wounds, persisted in the at
tack. Finally, as her strength was
about gone, she managed to grasp the
bird by the neck and with one fortu-
nate thrust sent the needle through its
head, killing it. Then, overcome by
her wounds, she fell unconscious across
the dead body Of her terrible antago-
mist. Later she recovered conscious
ness, but is confined to bed by her in
juries.

Miss MYRTLE eumm's Method.

An exciting episode is reported from
Barton, Allegany county, Nd. 1t is
said a young man named Pagenhart'
of Westernport, with companion,
took two young ladies of Keyser, W:
Va. on carriage drive. Hearing of
this. Miss Myrtle Quinn, Of Western
mort formerly of Cumberland, to whom
until recently Mr.. Pagenhart had been
having attention, armed herself with
a six-shooter and procuring a horse
and buggy started with her sister IN
nnrsuit She came in sight of the
double carriage at Phoenix Mine, and
il is said that six bullets were fired at
Pagenhart, who was sitting with one
of the young ladies on the rear seat.
The quartette were busy dodglng the
leaden hail. while the horses IN both
vehicles we're kept going at break
neck speed. The occurrence caused
great excitement among the people
living along the road in this thlckly
nopulated section. The bullets all
missed their mark. Miss Quinn then
attempted to drive around the car
rage. The wheels of the vehicles be-
came entangled and the buggy was al
most completely demolished, upsetting
the sisters on the roadside. Undaunt-
ed by this accident Miss Quinn seized
the whip and gave, so the story goes,
Mr.. Pagenhart a severe lashlng' while
he attempted to scales fence to get
out of her way. The other occupants
of the carriage came to his rescue and
succeeded in wrestling the whip from
the girls hands. The carriage, which
was uninjured by the collision, pro
ceeded on its way to Homecoming, while
the sisters walked back to Western
port, after turning their horse into a
nearby field.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen.

hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the need Of
a tonic and Alternative is felt. a prompt
use of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.

indigestion. constipation, dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. SOC. and

SOME interesting experiments have
recently been made by Thomas A.
Edison and by scientists in Boston,
the object of which was to enable blind
persons to see by means of the X-rays.
Sensations of light have been noticed
by blind persons, in one case by a
person with an eyeless socket. 1t has
not yet been shown, however, that the
patients could see clearly enough to
distinguish small objects. Nicolai
Tesla, the famous electrician, says
that it is cruel to.hold out to totally
blind persons the hope that they will
ever see with satisfaction, even by the
aid of the strongest rays, as the only
thing that can be accomplished is to
create sensation that will enable one
to tell light from darkness.

Secretary Francis, in letter read at a
sound-money banquet in Kansas City,
stated that unless the power of trusts
and monopolies is checked he fears an
uprising of the people
SECRETARY FRANCIS is inconsistent,
and his letter will not command much
respect. In the late campaign he
worked hand in glove with the trusts
and monopolists for the defeat of Mr..
Bryan. The trusts knew, the people
knew, and it is strange if Mr.. Francis
didn't know, that the election Of Mr..
Bryan would have been the worst blow
these unholy combinations ever re-
ceived. He wouldn't fight them when
he had the chance-whining won't
help now.
