NEW SHINE
SAVED A LIFE
Traveller in Dodging Pool Of Wat
or Escaped Death in Deep Pit

Deadwood, s. d., April q
Remembering that he had Just
had his shoes shined, and not
Wishing to spoil the polish,
Jack Thomas. while on his way
home late at night, decided not
to walk through what he sup
posed was puddle of water
and mud, and thereby saved
his life.
The supposed puddle was a
hole in the ground nearly 100
feet in dept, caused by the cav
ing in of a tunnel which a min.
ing company had constructed
at that depth under the high.
way along which Thomas was
walking.
Another thrilling experience
was that of a driver employed
by William Butler. He was
hauling coal with a f. ur horse
team along the road where the
cave.in occurred. He was max.
ing good progress down the in
cline when he saw the hole. He
set the brakes only to find, to
his horror, that they were not
sufficient to hold the heavy
load. The wagon gradually
forced the horses toward the
chasm, until the forefeet of the
leading team were on the brink.
Fortunately, the driver sue
ceeded in placing pieces of rock
in front of the wheels, thus
averting a plunge into the
depths.
Only the instinct of his horse
saved another man. The horse
absolutely refused to go ahead
on the road, and the rider, tir.
ing of whipping it, dismounted
and then thankfully walked
around the hole.

Saracen's Head Tavern.

The Saracen's Head, Snow Hill. now closed, reached back to a respectable antiquity. In Dick Tarlton's Jests' It is referred to as "tEe Saracens Head without Newgate," and Stow calls it "a fair and large inn for re- eeipt of travellers" which hath to sign the SaraZen's Head" It's pre- eminent interest, however, is natural ly Dickensian, and the novelist has given q vivid description of the old Inn as it was when Nicholas Nickleby and his uncle interviewed there the master of Dotheboys Hall There are various accounts of the origin of the sign of the Saracel's Head. One is that it was set up as compliment to the mother of Thomas Beckett. who was the daughter of a Saracen. h Sel1ea's "f.able Talk" We read, "WAea OUT countrymen came home from dghtin,s With the Saraeens they pictured them with huge, big terrible faces, as you st1l see the sign of the Saracen's Head is. ."-London Chronicle.

Why tho Judge Paid.

A physician. says a medical journal that vouches for the truth of the story was once summoned in haste to attend the child of family that lived in two rooms in the heart of q large American city-not New York. The child had been seized suddenly and seriously and just at election time The mother was in despair. and when the doubt full prognosis was given she broke into wailing and violent self condem- nation for some horrible sin of the family to which she said the child's illness was due-a direct punishment for their crime. She would go and curse the magistrate for 1t all, he. 1 husband should resign from the torce," and such evil ways should be eenounced forever.
 Curious to know how the magistrate could be held responsible for the child's illness, the doctor finally SC cured the confession that the crime of the poor. conscience stricken woman consisted in allowing the names of many fraudulent voters to be regis, tered as residing in her house. in swearing to the lie. etc. The magis. trate also had demanded this of all the neighbors in return for indescrtb able political fayors.
 The child recovered. and the magis. crate paid the physicians bill.
