A LONG FALL.
Never Would Have Believed II II He
Had Not Seen II.

The man with a bunch OF twine for
whiskers was shaking his chin at the
company of listeners, one OF whom had
shortly before read from n newspaper
a story of man falling down a well
and sustaining no serious injury.
(which reminds me, gents" he said.
that what | am about TO relate TO you
Is a fact, "a calm, cold fact, that
|Nvyildn't think of telling you II it was
af&thing else. 1t happened out in one
of the deep mines OF Colorado, where
there was straight shaft $50 feet
deep. Some said IL was s75, but. gents,
I'm truthful man, and know it was
20 feet inch short of that. for i meas
ured myself. Well. TO make u long
story short, one day there was man
out To see the mine from New York, to
buy ii. .
He had pot Of money. and he
looked like he carried il around under
his vest, for he was as big through as
a bass drum and built on them propor-
tions. i guess he weighed 800 pounds,
though IL might have been only 29s.
Anyhow, he was standing around the
mouth OF the shaft one morning, and
over and down he went. | was looking
right at him when he toppled, and I
never want To see another mans face
look like his did then, gents; indeed, /
don't. Not much. Well to make a long
story short, we looked at each other for
minute as he went down the hole. and
then we broke for the cage, which was
fastened up yet, and two of us started
down after him, expecting TO find him
mangled mass at the bottom. But we
didn't, and as we began to near the bot
tom we heard him yelling like "a coyote
10 hold up or we'd mash the life out of
him.
That scared us worse than the other,
and we wanted TO go back. but we
couldn't do that, so we went slow and
got down to him al! right. Well to
make long story short, by gum do you
know that we found he had gone
down that hole so fast, and he filled IL
up so full, that he compressed the air
In IL to such an extent that by the time
he got pretty near the bottom he was
MT moving faster than he would have
moved through that much water and
he had really stopped ten or fifteen feet
from the bottom and couldn't get either
way, which was what scared him so as
we came down in the cage? Very pecu-
liar occurrence, gents. and If I hadn't
seen il with my own eyes | never would
have believed IL in the world. Never"

THE SUMMER BOARDERs.
Physical Ailments That Women On

IL appears from Bethlehem newspa-
pers at hand that Bethlehem folk are
both amazed and amused at the sensa
tional stories about the late Detwiller.
IL Is declared by these authorities and
10y Rev. Dobler that the idea that the
Doctor was a sort OF social highway
man, such as Elizabeth Phipps Train
entertained us with i'm novel and
young Joe Holland presented 10 us on
the stage, a man who under the cloak
of professional and social visits laid
thievish hands on family plate, art
works, jewels, and the like, OF easy
access to such a man, is without foun-
dation. Bethlehem folk admit that DIR.
Detwiller had a weakness that tended
to destroy the fruit of his high talents
and make of him an outcast from his
church and from the society OF Bethle-
hem. one of the most spruce and most
highly cultivated communities in all
the land. But that he committed any
sort of thievery or pursued the career
of a social highwayman is vigorously
denied, and the stories to that effect
are stamped as rubbish. He is repre-
sented as man OF property and with
an income sufficient to satisfy his
fastidious tastes, while the Bethlehem
folk VIII always remember him kindly
because he gave TO the poor his services
as physician and surgeon, taking time
from his professional caiis among Beth
lehem's most wealthy people who were
his patrons and patients to minister to
the needs of the lowly without price.

Willing To BE a Witness.

Not very long ago "A crowded Euclid
car. bound east. took on a few extra
passengers at the Hikok street stop.
Among them was man I'm gray suit,
who found footing on the rear plat
form. The last installment of patrons
crowded the ear TO the utmost. The
aisle was fun, the platform packed and
the footboard lined. The motCrman,
knowing the car was overcrowded
went right ahead. regardless Of the sig
mailing patrons. At the corner OF Erie
street a stout man waved his arm Wig
orously. but the motorman shook his
head and pointed back. where another
Euclid car was following. The stout
man wasn't To be ignored, however. He
yelled fiercely at the conductor, and
made a wild dash at the car He

platfrom. missed IT, and went down I'm

The conductor instantly stopped the
car and went back and helped the
stranger To his feet. He wasn't hurt,
hut he was frlghtfully mad. The con-
ductor took his namt in the customary
way. brushed him off, and then went
back to the car. When he had rung

the names of few witnesses of the

THE COLORED SOLDIER.
His Deeds Of Heroisw at San Juan
Hill Will Be Long Remembered.

IT was impossible to go much about
camp without being impressed by the
great prestige that has come to the me-
gro through the recent fighting. At the
lunch counters, at the canteens, at the
| railway station, everywhere. one felt
that the old barrier between black men
and white men had been broken down
in great measure through those feats of
heroism performed by our colored
troops on San Juan hill. God bless the
niger! is the feeling of every Rough
Rider as he thinks what might have
happened to his regiment but for the
Ninth Cavalry and the Tenth Cavalry.
And the whole army shares that feel
ing, and the whole country soon will
share it. SO IL comes that the colored
soldier is asking no odds Of anybody
these days.
And see what a splendid swell the
black trooper is becoming. There is no
one in the army who takes more pride
than he in his accoutrement or spends
more money upon it. In the Tenth Cav
airy are negroes who boast half a dozen
blouses, four or five pairs Of trousers,
and gold plated spurs. IL you please, and
solid silver bits. They are rapidly be-
coming the dandies of our army, these
black troopers. And then hear them tell
of their war exploits as they sit about
the tent doors. polishing their sabres
until they might serve as mirrors.
Here is one story l heard in such a
group:
Oar was Spanish officer on dat hill

IL seems strange TO many folks that

American government finds too serious

layman, since the churches are nothing
