A TRAGIC EXPERIENCE.
The Climax Of a Woman's Return Trip
to Aar Aopne

The Climax Of a Woman's Return Trip
to Her Home.
A New York woman had a curious
and tragic experience, one that seems
more like a grewsome page from
French fiction than the plain recital OF
fact.
This woman started out with her
husband to accompany him part way
On a business trip he was taking to
A southern city. 1t was arranged that
she should stop to visit some friends
at point about halfway on the jour
ney and after two days stay should
proceed and rejoin her husband at his
destination and return with him. She
made her visit and when she reached
the town where she had expected to
meet her husband found that he was
not at the hotel where he had been
stopping, but had left hurriedly for
New York the day before. She waited
long enough to send kilograms to her
husbands office and to their house In
New York asking If he had arrived
and to receive a negative answer from
each place.
Concluding that he had been unable
to reach her by telegraph while she
was on the road, she decided to return
home. She was disappointed. but not
at all perturbed, as she journeyed
northward. She had to change cars
twice on the way. Each change In
yolved a wait of ten or fifteen min
utes at a small junction town. AS she
was pacing up and down the station
Uniform at each Of these places sne
saw a big, pine covered coffin box un
loaded from the express car and put

Juma, with an orientars instinct Of
prostration before such an overwhelm-

upon the ground.
The elephant rushed completely over
him. but by accident left him safe,
although choked and blinded with the
disturbed and sandy soil. The great
feet cleared him, and the tusks missed
him.
Almost twenty-four hours passed be-

hours after the excitement he spoke OF
himself only in the past tense, as OF
