you didn't. / never supposed you had
the nerve to do 1t a-purpose; but

FOUGHT on Edge Of PrecIpIcs.


A terrible struggle took place near
q precipice of 1900 feet, on the south
slopes of the Bernina range, between
an Italian officer and q private.
An Italian custom-house patrol. un-
der the command Of Lieutenant Rocta,
was visiting the Alpine posts In the
Valtelin, on the Swiss frontier. when
the ofiicer had to reprimand a soldier
named Cell. This man determined to
have revenge.
When the patrol was away on other
duty Cell attacked his oficer on q
lonely Alpine pass and attempted to
throw him over the precipice. A long
struggle followed. the men being Of
about equal strength and unarmed.
The oficer, to save his life, bit
through an artery In the wrist Of his
subordinate, who collapsed, owing to
loss of blood. Soon afterward the pa
troll arrived and carried Cell to . hos
p,tal in the valley, where he recov.
cred.
The military court, which has now
tried the case at Milan, took into con-
sideration the condition of the soldier
and above all, the refusal of his ofncsr
victim to prosecute, and sentenced
Cell to six months imprisonment
