oUTsTRIPPINo THE WIND.
The Most Exciting and Dangerous o1
 t Sports Is Delightful To- ..lj. bogganing.

The chief Davos run, the Klosters course. is over the last two miles oi the highroad between Davos and Klos- ters, although when the track is in good condition much longer distance can be ridden. As a rule, there is plenty of snow during the winter months; sometimes, however, there has been scarcity of this precious article and the races had to be run on road coated with ice. Fancy dashing down two miles of this slippery surface at full pace! Those who have not experi- snced the sensation of tobogganing or witnessed race cannot possibly real ize how intensely exciting such a run can be. AS each corner is approached the rider imagines that it must be his last. He feels as if he were being drawn to the side of the track and over the bank by an irresistible magnetic force, and yet he struggles on, while the pace Quickens as he rushes down the track of ice, half insensible at times, yet fnstinctively doing the right thing at the right moment. The first sharp corner is successfully taken. On Ao AAA0o Co" e@A u O. dA SdQSu Zl6Ad5. A 1CW vigorous efforts, a sharp dig with the toe rake, a moment of fear and expec- tation, and once more he has the straight road before him. There is no time to think of the past success, for there are more obstacles to conquer. A nasty corner, the sharpest of all, is still to come. Here it is only a few yards off. His rake crashes down, a strong muscular effort, a desperate shove, shuttle, 8 short moment of suspense, and it is passed like shot. Now for the final wild rush down the last straight run. A few seconds more and the last corner is reached. A rep- etition of the last manoeuvre brings him round. Yet 8 few yards, and he glides swiftly past the winning post. The cheers of his friends crowding around the finish sound duly in his ears, while for few seconds he sits exhausted on his skeleton. A minute later the screams of the excited lockers on announce the arrival of another man, one of the favorites. At terrific pace he approaches, but alas! too quickly, for, instead of rounding the corner, he dashes over the side into a heap of snow-such is the fate of even the best rides occasionally. Tn 1897 when the Klosters track was coated with ice, sBertie'' Dwyer rode the two miles in the sp.sasSssd time of four min aztsa a4 seconda

Officers of Telephone Go Were in Town Yesterday.
 The lecture which is to be given at St Johns church on next Friday even- ing promises to be both interesting and instructive.
 Herbert T. Dayton unloaded a car load of cattle at the local railroad sta ton yesterday morning. MT Dayton expects another car within a few days.

 The telephone agents from the Southern New England Telephone Go are still in town endeavoring to start an exchange hese. Numerous sub. scribers have been received and If things run smoothly for another week the project will be in working order and steps will be taken to secure a suitable place for the exchange.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Following Hal Godfrey and the as- sociate players who close their engage lnent at the Jacques this evening, Miss
 Annie Abbott, the original Georgia Magnet" will appear as the headliner pf next weeks show. This is probably
 Il some respects the most notable at traction. that Manager Poh has yet presented at this house. In the first place Miss Abbott has been resident bf Waterbury for several years follow Ing her retirement from the stage, this Fact being discovered when she recent Y had a bogus Annie Abbott arrested
 end fined in New York for falsely rep fesenting herself as the original
 Georgia Magnet. Again Miss Abbott's S remarkable electromagnetic powers, given to her by nature and absolutely
 mexpIainable by scientists, physicians
 pr herself, are most extraordinary, en-
 Ebling the frail little woman to hustle
 hround strong men, overcome their Strength and resist the combined force bf dozen Or more of them who cannot
 bush a billiard cue touched by her to the floor. Another phenomenal thing
 g when she places ner eyes on child
 knd makes her so heavy that the 3IrOngeSL man III IHe duQ1eilce AS uu-
 ble to lift the child from the floor
 These are only few of the marvellous
 things she does ill her exhibition, but they will suffice to indicate what an
 Extraordinary exhibition it is. When $he travelled a few years ago, Miss Alb bolt gave exhibitions of her power in Every part of the civilized world pug Hing the physicians and scientists ev- Rrywhere wno, were absolutely unable &o make any explanation of the extra ordinary power she possesses. Miss Abbott herself is unable to explain the bowers she has; she only knows that zhes can do these things, without under Handing how. The exhibition. how kver. is most remarka ble one. and there is little doubt that 1t will prove most extraordinary attraction for pa Irons Of the Jacques. Miss Abbott,

Biggest Printing Order.

When a certain sirup was first intro duced into England the proprietors had the enormous number of IA ,0G0 ,00O pam phlets printed. Nearly 6,000,O ,O00 of these were circulated through the post office to the principal inhabitants of every county in England. Probably in point of numbers as we'll as bulk this is the largest order for printing ever given for completion at specified time by any firm or factory. It doubtless would be a matter of astonishment to know just how much of this panacea had been "swalloweds by the public.
