HOW TO STOP A RUNAWAY.
Old Vcrmonter Figured Out That q
WrestIer's Collar and Elbow Trick
Would Do 1t md 1t Did.

The best way 10 stop runaway team,
an old driver SAYS, is to throw the
borses.
II learned that trick he explained,
"when a boy. l was a champion wres-
tier in the county of Franklin, VT,

was my favorite hold, and constant
practice at that made me strong in
nv arms and shoulders. You know
how a man is thrown in collar and ell

to pull pretty steady for awhile to the
right ard then give sudden jerk as
hard as you can to the left. If you
know how to do it, you can down your
man nine times in ten without tripping
him.
II never thought of trying collar and
elbow tactics on a runaway team till

the scheme wouldn't work with horses
as we'll as men, SO pulled them stead

was soft place to light. and presently
when l neared such a spot let go Of
the off rein, grasped the nigh one with

both, and this modern Romeo anc

royal blood. They made no conceal

and the old emperor of Austria the
hand of this beautiful princess in mar

Emperor Francis Joseph was horfl-
fed at his granddaughter choice OF
penniless and lowly- army officer
for a husband. Consent TO their union
was mphatically refused. The upshot
was that the princess and the lieuten-
ant eloped and were married in swift

ately expelled from the Bavarian army,
and Prince Leopold in his wrath for
bade the young couple to ever again
cross the Bavarian frontier. The EN-

tender heart and knew what love was,
interceded for her granddaughter.
Through her efforts Lieut.. Seefried
was admitted into the Austrian army
and created a baron. but both he and
his wife were rigidly excluded from the
Austrian and Bavarian courts Baroh
Seefried and the princess lived quietly
and contentedly in a small provincial
town where his regiment was quar-

married couple.
And now in her will the empress ha :
shown that she had never forgotten the
youthful lovers. She begs the emperor,
as a dying request. to use his influence
on behalf of Baron Seefried and his

entreaty to her own daughter. Arch-
duchess Gisela. and her son-in-law.
Prince Leopold of Bavaria. TO extend
full pardon to their daughter for her
youthful indiscretion. This appeal
from the dead empress has. of course,
met with ready response. Baron See

list of the Austrian army by the EN-
peror and given permission TO return
to Bavaria with his wife. There he
will enter the German diplomatic serv-
