FRIGHTENED BY CIRCUS LION.
An Old Railroad Engineer in the West
Tells of a Night Ride.

Dan Bechtel, OF Brookfeld, tells
the Kansas City Journal a story
about a night ride he once took with
a loose lion, which, as he says, tends
to snake the ~gooseAesh creep a lit
tie" Bechtel for II years was an
engineer on the Hannibal q st. Jo-
seph railroad. One night in 1888
he left Macon for Shelbina, his en-
CINE pulling the Wallace shows. It
was vepy dark, and he had orders net
to run faster ihan Is miles an hour.
Bechtel says he Vas bidding the
fireman and head brakeman about
what would happen if some Of the
Wild animals should get loose, when
he looked up and saw an old lion on
Top Of the cars, moving slowly and
gingerly toward The engine.
"When the brakeman and fireman
realized what was coming says
Bechtel, "they made a dive for the
cab door, and we're soon j ingonthe
front Of the engine. Mr.. Lion came
to the first car and stood there, crit
ically examining the engine. The
frebox was open, and that kept him
back, as he did not seem to know
what to make Of the bright, dagzliRg
light. | gave a whistle that would
scare ghosts, but it did not phase
the lion. We soon began to lose
steam and the train had to slow
down. When we reached Shelbina,
Conductor Pratt came up, making a
big kick because we had been going
slow. / pointed to the first car, and
Pratt quickly r~etreated.
"The trainer soon came and took
the big fellow to his cage. He had
found a loose bar, which he worked
out. With the fireman and brake
man on the front end and the show
people and Conductor Pratt on the
rear end, it seemed as if the lion was
getting too close. l. thought Of all
the mean things / had ever done, and
held to the throttle and let the en-
CINE go as fast as she would with what
steam still had on"

A Jewslsd cigar-cass Given Away with
BIO iarting Pangs.

Wv
30 iarting Pangs.
Some years ago, according to Lon
don Tit-Bits, a foreign diplomat,
who shall be nameless, presented mis-
letters Of recall to a certain king,
who invited him to a farewell bar
quet at the palace, presenting him
during the course of the eyeningwith
a superb golden cigar case, studded
with costly jewels, as a memento Of
his sojourn at the court and Of his
najesty's appreciation Of the serv-
ices he had rendered.
On the day following the presenta-
ton a note arrived from the grand
master of the kings household, beg
ging that the case might be returned
for some slight alteration-some-
thing or other was to be Inscribed on
the interior of the case. Of course
the diplomat sent it.
A few days elapsed, and then the
diplomat ventured to injuire how
the alterations were progressing and
when he might expect a return Of
the case, as he was in a hurry to leave
the country and get home.
A polite reply was forwarded that
the alterations would be completed
in a day or two. At considerable in,
convenience the diplomat tarried
week, p%referring to wait to intrust'
ing the costly gift to ashipping agent
to deliver to him in England. A
fortnight elapsed, three weeks, anC
then, in despair, after wasting mueE
stationery and ink, the wearied diplo
mat set sail, leaving his address be
hind him. From that day to this thu
cigar case has never turned up.
Recently, however, ne met his sue
cessor, who, in his turn, had just lief.
the court. The latter was full Of en-.
thusiasm about the king, who, he eG
claimed, ifs a capital fellow. IL
presented me with a splendid golt
cigar case, heavily encrusted will
magnificent gems, when | took m,
leave Of him. | would like to SHOW
it to you, only they asked to have i
back for a bit to make IN Alteration
Of some sort"
The smile that developed on thu
features of the other diplomat be
came very broad, and investigation
brought to light the fact that ye
other diplomats had been treated il
the same manner; that is to say, pre-
sumably the identical gold ciga
case had done duty for them ALL
