Clue of the most exciting and thrilling run-
aways that ever occurred here on the sus-
pension bridges took place Monday after-
noon. Two maddenedteams of horses.
chased each other .across the now suspension
bridge from the Canadian to the American
side, without drivers, and with a woman in
one carriage and a man in the other. Row
both escaped death is miraculous. Mr and
Mrs. Thomas 13. Norris and the lady'e sis-
ter, Miss Annie Willis, of Culpepper, Pa.,
were about to take their carriage on this
side, near the neper suspension bridge.
Mrs. Norria had jumped into the carriage,
when the horses became frightened and
started. The driver, William Davy, tried
to atop them, but a baby ran in front of
him and be missed his lines. The team
whirled into the suspension bridge and'bes
gan a wild dash across, with Mrs. Norris
on the back seat. Women and childreu on
the bridge screamed and clung to the edge
of the railing to avoid being run down ;
men shouted aura tried to stop the animals,
but it was useless. The carriage swayed
frightfully, but Mrs. Norris clung to the
seat. Near the centre of the bridge a hank
had come to a standstill and
A COLLISION WO INEVITABLE.
Mrs. Norris, before the collision, leaped
from the swaying carriage and struck on
the guard rail of the bridge, which is 200
feet above the water. She shattered all
the bones in her arm and was badly bruised.
A driver named Slay, who was ahead of the
team on the bridge, jumped out tohelp stop
the runaways, when hie team started up.
There were two occupants of his carriage,
Walter Wilde, of Northampton, SSegletei,
and Charles Wilde, hisbrother, of Kingston,
N. Y. The latter jumped out, but the Eng-
lishman remained in the carriage and exper-
ienced a ride the like of which he does not,
care to repeat. The team rushed across the
bridge, up the hill and through the principal
business streets of the city, being caught by
a man at the corner near the New York
Central station, Wilde was helped out
prostrated with fright. The first carriage
was wrecked and the horses badly injured,.
SNAT('IIli.P FStOD3 THE RAIN$..
A story of a man being snatched from
the brink of the gorge is that related by
James Lehierid and John Thomas. Lass
t
night, while walking up the long, narrow,
winding roadway from' the Maid of the Mist
landing to the top of the gorge on this side
of the river, their dog became uneasy when
they reached the top andbarked loudly
The Wien made a search along the high
bank and to their surprise found a young
man lying an the very edge of the bank
with his head hanging over. He was in a
stupor or sleep and his hat had fallen over
the cliff, and any move on the part of the
man would have hurled him over. The
men resolved to grab the man suddenly.
and pull him back oat of danger before he
could awake. This they did, He was
found to be Charles. H. Moffat, of Buffalo,
a wealthy young man who, it es said, had
been on au exttr.3ed spree. Ho had ar-
rived at the Clifton house and had wandered
out during the evening, and probably lain
down an the bank and crawled to the edge,
where he fell aalevla, The men who res-
cued him restored his fiat, and Mr. Moffat
has gone to Buffalo. He refused to go out
and view the place where he had his even-
ing nap, and could hardly bo made to be-
lieve the thrilling experience he: had passed

Dainty Workmanship of Old.
That minute mechanical construction can
lay claim to ct,nsiderablo antiquity is evi-
denced by the works of Pliny and Adrain,
who relate that Myrmisides constructed
out of ivory a ship with all her appurten-
ances and a chariot with four whorls and
four horses, both so small that a bee could
hide eftber of them with its wines. A
still more wonderful work is that of Mark
Scaliot, a London locksmith, who in 1570,
manufactured a lock consisting of eleven.
different pieces of steel, iron and brass
which, together with the key belonging to
it, only weighed one grain. The same
artist constructed a chain of gold containing
forty-three links, which he fastened to the
lock and key, and upon these being attach-
ed t, the neck of a flea the insect was able
to draw them with ease. A cherry stone
carved by the Italian sculptor, Rossi, con-
tained a glory of sixty saints. Another,
shown at Mechlin, iu Brabant, was carved,
in the form of a basket, in which were
fourteen pairs of dice, the spots on the latter
being visible to the naked eye. A still
more marvellous curiosity was a set of six-
teen bundred ivory dishes which were said
to have been purchased by one Shad from
the maker, Oswald Northingerns, and ex-
hibited before Pope Paul VI. These dainty
turnings, though perfect in every respect,
were scarcely visible to the naked eye, and
could be easily enclosed in a casket the
size of a peppercorn. Twenty.five wooden
cannons, capable of being packed away in
the same space, were made by a priest. In
1764, on the birthday of King George III.,
a watchmaker of London named Arnold,
presented himself before the kinto ex-
hibit a curious repeating watch' of his
manufacture. This watch was in diameter
somewhat less than a silver two -pence,
contained one hundred and twenty distinct
parts, and weighed altogether Iess than six
pennyweights.
Ingenious Chinese Thieves.
It is doubtful if any country in the world
can produce more ingenious thieves than
can China. An inventory was recently.
made of the stock of rifle barrels in the
Arsenal by the Nanking authorisies and it
was found that a large number haddieap-
peered. It, was clear there had been a rob-
bery, but how the thieves got the barrels
out of the Arsenal was a mystery. No one
is allowed to enter or leave the place with-
out being carefully searched. .A watch was
set and the mystery was cleared up. The
coolies engaged in carrying paokages in and
out of the Arsenal used long bamboo sticks
as curlers, The &4,ticks are l}ollow and
when the opportunity 'presented itself the
coolie :slipped in a rife barrel and hoisted
his package on his stick and went out un-
molested. After he had deposited his
package he would unload his stick at a con-
federate's house. There were three coolies
implicated and all were arrested. They ate
now at the city gates with big wooden col-
lars around their necks. On these collars
is a statement of their crime and punish
merit., After they are relieved of the col-
lars they will each receive 3,000 blows with
bamboo rods.

Gas was first made in England about
1792, and for many years was used only to
illuminate the residences of royalty and the
nobility. It is now so plentiful and cheap
that as much employment ie found for it in
cooking as in illumination.
Curved stereotype plates were invented
in 1815, but were little used for half a cen-
tury after that date. Since 1865 they have
come into general, employment in every
newspaper office the country whose ed-
ition is printedou a fast steam press.:
The first almanac was printed in Hungary
in 1470. Qne medical firm in this country
now prints and circulates over 3,000,000 a
year, and it is estimated that the total
number printed annually in this country
does not fall short of 150,000,000.
Needles were first made with very 'rude
machinery in 1541 At that date a werk(nau
did well ifhe turned out ten a day. It is
estimated that the present produot of the
United States exceeds 80,000,0(0 a year,
while England makes 110,000,000.
The first forksmade in Eugiand were
manufactured in 1608. Their use was rid-
iculed lay the men of the time, who argued
that the English race must be degenerating
when a knife and a spoon were not sufficient
for table use. Last year a. Sheffield firm

Tobacco was discovered in 149`x. In 1892
the United States raised 565,755,000 pounds
on 757,326 acres of ground. In 1834 the
world's production was 768,000 tons on
2,029,000 acres. In 1892 there were menu -
featured in the United States 2,87 7,779,440
cigarettes.
Carpets were brought from the East in
1589. At first they were made by hand,but
the development of machinery in their man-
ufacture is sneh that one English firm makes
400,000 a year. There are said to be in this
country over 70,000,000daily;troddenby the
feet of our laopnlation.
Calico printing was inventedin 1670. The j
number of yards annually manufactured is
too great for computation. One girl of 12
years employed in the Lancashire mills will
make 35 yards a day, and in a year can turn
out enough to clothe 1200 persons in India
for the same length of time.
The electric light was invented in 1846
and as late as 1876 was pronounced by a high.
scientific authority "a pretty toy," and the
prediction made that it would never be any-
thing else. At present over 200 cities and

marl comprises 8,000,000,000 letters and
5,003,000,000 papers.
The alum -pegging machine was invented in
1S53. By its aid it is estimated that the
labor of ono man can turn out 390 pairs of
shoes a day. Ono factory near Boston
makes more shoes every year than the e2,•
000 shoemakers of Paris. In 1830 3100
ehoe machines were at work,producing 150,-
000,000 pairs of shoes a year.
Breech -loading rifles were invented in 1811,
bet did not come into general use for many
years. It is estimated that 'over 1;x,000,000
are now in actual service in k uropean
armies, while 3,000,000 more are reserved
in the arsenals for emergencies. Statisti-
cians say that there are 100,000,00Q, guns of
all kinds in the world.
Moree's telegraph was made praotical in
1537. Tile Western Union now has 739,-
105 miles of wire and sends 62,000,000 mes-
sages a year. The world's business is trans-
acted partly by means of 246,000,000 mes-
sages sent every year. In 1881 there were
in Europe 41,150 telegraph offices. The
world in ISSS had 767,8(10 miles of tele-
graph wires.
Acid etching was first done in 1512.
Little practical use was made of the process,
however, until about twenty years ago,
when .it was improved to such an extent
that "process reproductions" became the
cheapest mean of preparing illustrations
for the press. At present this method is in
use in the art departments of publishing
firms, magazines and newspapers.
Coal first came into use in England in
1234. During the last ten years there
were produced 11,056,000,000 tons, and
coal fields have been discovered in every
country in the world. It is estimated that
the coal fields now known will supply the
constantly increasing demand for 1000
years, which will give the world time to
look round and either discover more or
find a proper substitute.
The harvester was invented by McCor-
mick in 1831. Since that time this machine
has been brought to such perfection that,
it is said, it will ant and bind an acre of
grain in forty-five minutes. To such an.
extent has machinery superseded hand
work in the grain farms, of the Northwest
that it is estimated that the labor of one
man will raise enough grain to support a
thousand men for a year, while the labor
of a second will transport it to market,
and that of a third will prepare it for
food.
Lost and Found.
An old woman has just died in a Vienna
iaospital whose history is worth recording.
When this woman was 25 years old and
had been happily married three years, her
husband suddenly disappeared, and though
he was sought by the police and advertised
for, no trace of him was found. Thirty
years after the disappearance of her hus-
band Magdalene Wildhofer was entitled by
the Austrian law to have her husband de-
clared dead and to marry again. He was
again advertised for, and as' he did not
come, she married one who had long been
her suitor. After twoyearsof happiness
the first husband, who was 68 years old at
the time, returned, and the woman did not
hesitate to let him take his old place and
had a judicial separation from her second.
husband, who perfectly understood that he
must give way to prior rights and with-
drew. Frau Magdalene nursed the first
husband faithfully until he died -a few years
ago, and she never heard of her second
husband again.
The Temptrees.
"They say that stolen kisses are the
sweetest," he said, a$ they sat on the steps
looking at the moon.
"Indeed ?" she said.
"Yes. What do you think about it?"
"Oh, I have no opinion at all; but it
seems to me, if I were a young roan, I
wouldn't be long in doubt as to whether
they were or not."
"I have a sure way of getting mosquitoes
out of a room," said the melancholy man at
the seaside boarding house. "How do you
do it?" asked several people at once. "I go
out of doors myself," he replied.
rIE MYSTERIES OF MOROCCO
Are Facts Narrated by a Journalist Prom

A
Grandmother its rweuty--!halt l a Has-
san Melee a 'rust "Cesspool of Rotten,
news" as out Abselisese Tyrant.
A. manof mysteries .from Al oroaco, Mr.
Budget( Meakin, editor of the Tangier
Times, who is now on a tour of America,
was interviewed by a' Montrealreporter the
other day. Of Mt. Meakin the Review of
Reviews, had eaid that he "is one of the
very few Englishmen who knows something
of that mysterious Empire '(Morocco.) No
one knows all abont Morocco, no not even
the Moors themselves, but Mr. Meakin
knows a great deal, and as he is going to
lecture round the world on the subject at
his heart, the general average of informa-
tion an the snbjeoia is going to be raised."
In a half.hour interview Mr. Meakm made.
it clear that be had neither been libelled or
flattered by the Iteviaw. He told of a land
that has receded from a foremost place
among the nations of the world to the most
hopeless, helpless stagnation. It is a land
where women become mothers at twelve and
fifteen and
GRAN'DMOTIINIta =TIMMY.
Indeed, itis recorded, says Mr. Meakin,
that at least one Moroccan woman became
a. grandmother at twenty. And every
authority on Morocco will agree that the
average Moorish woman is old and wrinkled
and graceless before she has seen aquarter of
a century .Air, Meakin knows, for he lived
there upward -of nine years on intimate
terms with the Moroccans, speaking their
language and wearing their aoetume. As a
result of that acquaintance, Mr, aleaktinhas
written several stories of Moorish life,
"Sons of Ishmael," "Brown Barbary,"ete.,
which competent critics have pronounced
standard works.
"It is," said Mr. Meakin, speaking of
Morocco, " an immense cesspool of
rottenness, Despotism and anarchy are
there seen to be the complements of each
other. Mull el Hassan, the Sultan, is a
mars of thought and reading, but his con -
options of human liberty, if he has any, are
very vague. Be maintains his absolute
sway by playing off ane European nation
against another. And his governors hold
from him, as Vicar of God, power of life
and death over all Morocco, and they use
it. Periodically, by the permission of the
Sultan, the more powerful tribes literally
eat the washer ones up, enslaving or
slaughtering the men and desolating the
land by fire.
If Europe does not interfere, this once
powerful people will sink into the lowest
depths of barbarism, and eventually die off
the earth.
But if the country be opened up, Canada
will have a competitor greater than India
in the wheat markets of the world. For to-
day, with an export duty of about 60 per
cent. on wheat, and over 100 per cent. on
maize, large quantities of these cereals are
exported from Morocco.
Women in English Politics.
The part the women play in an English
election is one of the things which no
American can accept as en improvement
over our own methods. It may either amuse
Bina or shock him, but he would not care
to see i4 adopted at home. The canvassing
in the country from cottage to cottage he
can understand; thatseems possible enough.
It takes the form of a polite vieit to the
tenants, and the real object is cloaked with
a few vague inquiries about the health of
the children or the condition of the crops,
and the tracthke distribution of campaign
documents. Bat in town it is different.
The invasion of bachelor apartments by
young Primrose Dames is embarrassing and
un -nice, and is the sort of thing we would
not allow our sisters to do ; and the house.
to -house canvass in the alleys of Whiteohap.
el or Among the savages of Lambeth, whioh
results in insult and personal abuse, is, to
our way of thinking, a simple impossibility.
The English, as a rule, think wo allow our
women to do pretty much as they please,
and it is true that they do in many things
enjoy more freedom than their British cous-
ins, but the men in our country are not so
anxious to get into olfice,greedy as they are
after it, as to allow their wives, in order to
attain that end, to be even subject to
annoyance, certainly not to be stoned
and hustled off their feet or splat-
tered with the mud of the Mile -End Road.
Any one in. England who followed the elec-
tion last year knows to the wife of which
distinguished candidate and to the daugh-
ters of which cabinet minister I refer.
I have seen women of the best class struck
by etones and eggs and dead fish, and the
game did not seem to me to be worth the
candle. I confess that at the timet was so
intent in admiring their pluck that it ap-
peared to ane as rather fine than otherwise,
but from this calmer distance I can sea
nothing in the active work of the English
woman in politics which justifies the risks
she voluntarily runs of insult and indignity
and bodily injury. A seat in the House
would hardly repay a candidate for the Toss
of one of his wife's eyes, or of all of his
sister's front teeth, and, though that is put.
ting it brutally, it is patting it fairly.
rt would not be fair, however if I left the
idea in the reader's mind that the women go
into the work unwillingly; on the contrary,
they delight in it, and some of them aro as
clever at it as the men, and go to us great
lengths, from Mrs. Langtry, who plastered
her house from pavement to roof, with
red and white posters for the Conservative
candidate, to the Duchesses who sat at the
aide of the member for Westminster and re-
gretted that it threatened to be an orderly
meeting.. Itis also only fair to add that
many of the most prominent Englishmen in
polities are mach opposed to what they
call the interference of women in matters
political as they are to bribery and corrup-
tion, and regard both elements of an elec.
toral campaign with a pronounced disfavor.
The reply which the present President
of the United States made to those en
tlausiatic and no doubt well-meaning women
who wished to form leagues and name
them after his wife, illustrates the spirit
withwhich the interference of women in poll -
ties is regarded in this country. But then
it a new thing with us, and it is only
right to remember that from the days of
the Duchess of Devonshire's sentimental
canvass tothe present, English women
have taken a part in general elections ; that
there is precedent for it ; and when you
have said that of anything English, you
Have justified it for all time to come. The.
young American girl who would not think
it proper to address men from a platform
and gave them a chance to throw things at
her, must remember that the English girl
would not give the man sheknew a cup of
tea in the afternoon unless her mother Were
in the room to take care of her. And I am
sure the women in My Candidate's cam-
paign almost persuaded me that they, as
the political agent declared, did more than
himself to 'win the election,—CFrom " A

A Victoria, B. C., special says :—Theo -
dere Anderson, one of the crew of the
Victoria sealing schooner Arietis, was
among the passengers from Japen by the
steamship Empress of India, He it was
who, with two companions, lost the schoon-
er in a fog and was only rescued after Isis
dore and Johnnie, his comrades in misfor-
tune, had succumbed to hunger and ex-
haustion. Anderson still suffers from his
terrible trip, and will be unable to engage
in env hard work for some time to come.
He thus tells the story of his trip :
" We left the schooner at 5 o'clock on
the morning of June 1, the vessel then
beingabout eighty miles off Yen-os-Kima.
Steering due west until 11.30, we got a
dozen or more seals, but lost sight of the
schooner. Then we pulled to the windward
for a mile or so, and started for where we
left her by the compass. She must have
shifted, for we could find no trace of her,
after pulling hard until 7 in the evening.
We listened for the boom of a gun, but not
a sound came over the waters for fully
three hours. Then we did catch the sound
far away in the northwest, and started to
trace it up. All night we kept pulling to
the northwest, and listening for a second
report of the gun. We didn't get it till 8 q
in the morning, and then it seemed as dis
taint as the day before. The water evetw
hour was getting worse, and we coulgesee
there was a gale rising, so we did this best
we could to prepare for it. We took
the fifteen skins that were in the oat with
the mast and oars and tied them eourely to
the painter for a sea anchor. A shark,
however, soon made way with the skins,
and we were obliged to replace them svith
our guns. As we were lashing the amuni-
tion I30x also to the rope we capsized. Tho
air compartments in the ends righted the
boat at once. All three ef us got in agait
and started tp bail the boet, but soon had
to give it up as a bad job. Li spite of all
we could do the boat capeized repeatedly,
and each time let& ua weaker. The fourth
time Johnnie was lost. I noticed bins a
short dietauce }rebind when I was SW1111-
ming for the boat, Enid just as I glanced
around again on getting to the boat I saw
the swish of a ehark's tail and knew that
Johnnie was done for. The same shark
got all our provisions when the boat went
over first). The sixth time we capsized Isi-
dore was lost. Ho was too weak to make
