RISK LIVES CARRYING MAILS
Swiss Postmen Face Grave Dangers
In Execution Of Their Duty
Among the Mountains.

There are several post offices in
Switzerland at height OF 1000 or
more feet and a mail box on the very
summit Of the Vanguard, from which
four collections are made daily, Is
nearly 10000 feet above the sea level.
Near here some years ago three letter
carriers were crushed to death by an
avalanche. In an adjacent canton, IN
the summer Of 1863, a postman fell
into a crevasse while crossing a gla-
cier his two full bags on his back.
All efforts to recover either the body
or the mails were fruitless. But "a
years afterward, in 1897, the glacier
cast forth it's prey many miles lower
down the valley, and the long-lost let
tiers were delivered to as many of the
addresses as could be traced.
Not infrequently, too, these Alpine
postmen are attacked by the huge,
fierce eagles that soar hungrily above
the least frequented crags. Usually
the men are able to beat off their
feathered asSailants but not always.
In July one year postman who car
ried the mails on foot between the vii
lagos of Sospello and Puget Theniers
was fatally mauled by three such
birds Of two men who attempted to
avenge his death one was killed out
right and another injured so severely
that his life was for a long time In
danger.
