IMPRISONED/ IN AN ORGAN.
I aietays thought it a Very' hard
case, but I could never bring my
irate father-aad my weeping mother'
to view the- matter in that light. I
appeal to an impartiat Public. This
was hove it happened :
My name was put on the boards
of St Blasius in October, 185—,
and, after a most -tender parting
from my household gods in War-
wickshire, I commenced residence in
all the glory of a promieing Fres-
man. I do not know that I ever
had very sanguine hopes of academic
distinction, so I received the' full
blessing of expecting nothing, inas-
much as, in this respect, I met no
disappointment. I had a hardtbat-
tle with, my revered father, and af-
terwatcls with the tutor Of the col-
lege, to be allowed to rent an extra
room in which I might carry on my
favorite relaxation. This •was -the
Unusual pursuit of amateur organ -
building. My _father said the idea
was preposterous and expensive.
The tutor affirmed that such things
ruined a young man's Prospects, and
made him. idle. But, nevertheless,
• I carried. the day through the inter-
cession of my mother ; and my car-
• penter's bench, *if* the appurten-
ances thereof, were duly accommo-
dated ina small room opening -out of
my gyp -room, on staircase letter C.
I was not long in maturing my
pilaus for erecting a small chamber -
Organ of two manuals, with all
kinds of ingenious appliances in the
way of etops .and couplers. I was
riaturally both of a mechanical and
musical turn of mind; so, by my
favorite pursuit, I gratified bats
sides of my disposition. I ofteri
triedto convince ray father that it
was . a most economical step thus to
kill two birds with one stone, but he
would not see it. I• exelained how
I might develop my mechanical
talent by building ,an expensive
• steam-engine,- and indulge my musi-
cal propensities by insisting upon
running up to London every week
to enjoy the opera or Philharmonic
concerts. I prayed on paper that
this method wthild consum-e more
time and more money than a little
quiet organ building could ever ab-
sorb. But it was all of no use. My
father had not a logical mind, and
he drove away conviction in a man-
ner most irritating to a sound reason-
er like myself. However, I had my
own way at Cambridge) but under
protest.
Now, the -organ in the Chapel of
St. Blasius was an old organ, which
• had been renovated and added to by
• several builders,. till the inside of
the instrument was crowded beyond
all reason. • For the most ordinary
• processes of tuning and regulating,
• the unfortunate operator had to per-
form. tbe feats of an acrobat before
• he could get at either pipes or key -
action. The bellows- had to be
emptied and the sweil closed before
• he could get ia at all., And, after
he Was in, it was only by getting
\cover• sundry massive beams, under
• 'cross beams not more than zwo feet
• from the ground, and through aper-
• tures scarcely big enough for a rab-
bit, that any of the inportant work-
• ing parts of the instrument could be
reached. • To tie oneself into a knot,
as tunablers'do, \was nothing to. this.-
-Unless a man could double himself
up into the space of a cubic foot or
so unless be could wriggle along
• yards upon his back, and stand, for
many miserable minutes in the most
apoplectic. postures, he could not

of the organist, and; after a vast

in a chronicstate of broken head
and 'co-ntused shins. Every now
and then I 'appeared with one or
more black eyes; made on one occa-
sion, I was most suspiciously cross-
• examined by the Dean as to presum-
ed pugilistic propensities.
But in the midst of all these dif-
• ficulties, I progressed most satisfao-
torily with my work, and was proud
• to think that all my evolutions in
• the St. Blasius organ, however detri-
• mental to my own bodily comfort
• and personal' appearance, biought no
damage to the venerable and sacred
instrument itself. So long as this
- state of things continued, perfect
amity prevailed between the organ-
ist- 'and myself. . He- did not object
to any amount of punishment where-
• with I punished my own cranium or
• limbs, but he swore a deep oath that
the moment I injured a hair in his
precious organ, that moment should
I be to him. as a heathen. man and a
publican.
Four terms passed by without any
accident. • My studies were in a
most backTvard etate, but, oh, joy!
my chamber -organ eves on the high
roak to completion. The tutor COM-
plained of my idleness. My father
upbraided me for neglecting my
reading, but I hugged myself with
the theught that, once the organ was
'finished I would buckle to; and/make
my running with the college sub-
ject& In the midst of my good reso-
lutions a most la,mentable accident
took place. • I was,t one day, stand-
ing inside the chapel organ, resting
on my left knee, with one foot
wedged in betweeu two pipes, the
other suspended delicately in the
air, my head tucked out of the way
wider my right. arm, while I held a
long screw -driver in my left hand.
In this pleasant position I had stood
for, nearly ten minutes, examining
a portion of the wind chest work,
• when, by an overpowering impulse,
I was compelled to sneeze, and in
the act 1 dropped the screw-diivete
Down it Fent. heavily on the swell -
trackers, land forthwith 'snap went
the trackers, and my itnplement
travelledeon to further mischief be-
low. - At this juncture I heard a fa-
miliar voice-- .
".11416 !—what's that 1"
"Ob, nothingi! " I replied.
• a' Yoti i get' out of that, sir, and
let me- see what you have been at"
• Like e guilty hound, I extracted
myself from'the organ. The organ-
ist pulled out a few of the swell-.
stops, and ran lightly over the keys.,
In two seconds my fatal delinquency,
came to Hatt. I new it was all
over. I put down the key of the
organ on the stool, and without a
word, silently and mournfully left
the chapel. • The organist, on ask-
ing for the services of an organ -
builder, had to give an account
of the accident, and consequently
,got soundly wigged by the Dean for
" dreaming -of allowing a wild young
°undergraduate to meddle with and
injure so noble and valuable an in-
strument." ' -
From that hour 1 knew there was
no more help to be obtained by me
from that noble and valuable," etc.
I was- thrown on my own resources.
My organ progressed 'but slowly;
my work, from being imitative, be-
came tenative ; and often-times I
fitted twenty different pieces of wood
in a given place. before I got it
right. Week after week I toiled
away . laboriously, with patience
worthy Of a better cause. • 1 chafed
.a good deal at my constant obstacIss,
and twice did I attempt to make it
up with the organist. • 131 it was
no use.
"No, sir," he said, peremptorily;
"there will be no more damage done
to the . organ by you again, if I can
help it." -
By this time I had finished the
key -action, bellows, sound -board, and
wind -chest. The pipe -Work, -so far
as it was metal, I did not attempt.
This portion of myorgan was sup-
plied by an organ -builder in London.
The stop -work -was also finished, and
I was now engaged putting on some
composition -pedals.. In this there
were one or two intricacies which I
could not solve, and I at last deter-
mined that I would attempt furtive-
ly to get into the chlipel organ and
examine the composition • pedals
there. But at this I was staggered
by the difficulty of the project. • To
-get the keys of the ("igen was impos-
sible. To force an entrance was, of
course, out of the question. My
only chance was to watch an oppor-
tunity when the - organ should be
left open, and the organist absent.
For. this combination of -diem m--
stanees I watched and waited in
vain for nearly, three weeks. . At
last, one Sunday morning, I was
late for chapel, and passing up the
ante -chapel I found the choir -gates
closed, and the service well advanc-
ed. ' I had nothing particular to do,
so I thought I would sit clown in
the aate-c_hapel to he the anthem.
So I •made myself comfortable near
the screen, looking up every now
and then to the " noble and valu-
able " old instrument above me. To-
wards t13. e end of the Psaliiis a fright-
ful cipl ering took place, or (in un-
technical language) several notes
struck down inside the organ, and
sotendecl various and discordant
pipes whether the organist liked it
91* no. This " ciphering " I at once
perceived was on the swell. In a
second'I heard a handful of swell -
stops. pushed hastily in, and the
Psalms were finished on the Great and
Choir. When the- anthem began,
the first few cords told me plainly
enough., that the swell was now all
right—the ciphering had been cured.
Now I knew that, in all probability,
the organist must have got at the key -
action to effect this, and I also
knew that, in that clumsily-ar
0 -
raneed instrument, he could not do
this without going, inside. At once
it struck me—had he left the little
side door open 7 If he had, now was
my opportunity. I slipped up the
winding staircase, and crept canti-
oesly along -the t 1-) of the screen till
I'hid myself behin the- organ. -Un-
fortunately for me he side -door was
near the bellows 4 ndle, and so long
as the nian whO blew sat neat I
' could do nothing.owever, as this
was a s'ermen Sunday, I bad plenty
of time ; so I kept still in my hid-
ing -place, and bided my time. The
bellows -blower, might go to sleep, or
he might leaTe the the organ loft for
a few minutes during the sermon.
The Dean geve out his text, and
commenced one of his dreary and
lengthy compositions I caenot say
I was .very attentive. • I was too
fully occupied in watching my man.
Slowly and ponderously tie learned
Dean got through his ititroduction
and the first of his three heads. J est
as he proceeded with " Secondly,"
the bellows -blower, to my great joy,
softly left the -organ loft; while the -
organist was all right in front,
listening hard, it is to be hoped, to
the Dean's sermon. • In a moment I
slipped round, when I found the
coast was clear, and came upon the
little side -door open! I doubled my-
self up and got in. I went cautio'is-
ly hands and knees across the top
of the bellows, and after several hair-
breadth ,escapes, reached the rods of
the great organ stops, with the com-
position rollers working above and
below. I softly got off the bellows
was literally jammed between the
eyer-rising bellows below, and those
hideous spikes itbove,. I dare not
cry out; for was not the Dean in
the finest passage of his peroration 7
In the midst of my agony I beard a
sound, and felt a movement in the
mechanism near me. It was the
organist pulling out the great organ
stops. At the same instant my eyes
caught sight of the "pull -downs"
leading from the great organ wind -
chest. Some little demon whispei-
ed in my ear; and in a moment I
,saw my only hope of release from
the intense and increasing agony I
was suffering. I must open the
nearest pipes, and thus release, the
accumulating wind. I knew, of
course, the uproar I should cause,
aid I still heard the interminable
Dean at his interminable sermon.
But I could not help it. With one
band I grasped about eight of the
bass "pull -downs," and with the
other I laid hold of the nearest
pedal -trackers. A roar of the most
awful charaoter ensued ; it was as
though fifty healthy bulls and five
active volcanoes had burst into the
chapel. The Dean's sermon was ef-
fectually quenched. One of his
finest periods was brought to an un-
expected full stop. The unfortunate
organist bounded off his stool. and
swore audibly. The bellows -blower
rushed off, thinking, no doubt, the
devil was inside the organ. But, oh
joy! the bellows sank, and in a
fainting state I clambered over the
top, stumbled out through the little
side -door, and fell into the arms of
two Senior Fellows who had hasten-
ed up to the scene of the disaster.
The comraption among the gowns-
rnep in the chapel, I was afterwards
told, beggared description. Laughter,
horror, exelarnations of surprise and
indignation, were all to the front by
turns. The Blessing was pronounc-
• ed amidst the greatest confusion;
and altogether the scene was such as
those sacred walls had never witness-
edbefore.
I was politely conducted to my
rooms. The next morning I appear-
ed. before the Master and Seniors,
and, thoagh I pleaded loud and long,
I was rusticated for two terms. I
never .went back to Cambridge. I
alwaye considered that I had been
very badly treated.--TempleBarfor
at the side farthest from the side -
door, and here I had to place myself
into the most uncomfortable posi-
tion it is possible to conceive. I had
jttst room for My two legs, but none
for the up0%i part; of my body. A
large beam projected just into the
very spot vthere my shoulders ought
to have been'; mei had to bend my
head forward over the top of the
reservoir bellows, with a row of
sharp wire screw ends above, lying
across the nape of ray neck. The com-
position pedal -work was now in front
of me nearly, and, pulling out a Stfle 11
rule, I immediately commenced my
inveetigation .and measurement.
Meanwhile, I could hear the heavy
theological Dean droning out his in-
terminable sermon. For the first
time in my life I adtnited his pro-
lixity, for every additional subdivi-
sion of his subject gave me so -much
more time for my wcrk. I knew
full well that, when the sermon
came to an end, my little excursion
must also terminate, for the organ-
ist would then continence his con-
cluding voluntary.- I heard a faint
sound at the back of the organ, of
which, however, I did not take
much notice. I supposed (and
lightly) ,that it was the blower re-
turning to his post, and I naturally
calculated the small gratuity which
would suffice to buy his silence when
I made my _exit through the dark
little door opposite. How far the
Dean had advanced in hissermon I
could not tell exactly, but I knew
he was deep in "Thirdly," and I
thought to myself it was. nearly
time for me to get out. I had just
resolved upon this, and was folding
up my two -foot rule and my paper
of memorantia, when my attention
was attracted by a subdued creaking
sound. I locked around, and, by
the dusty twilight which prevailed
inside the organ, I just aaw enough
to suspect that the bellows -blower
had begun to put in the wind, In
the greatest consternation. I put my
hand upon the top. of the reservoir -
bellows just before me. Yes, it was
too true; the wind was being pet
in, ready for the *concluding volun-
tary:. It must be remembered that
'tny head was of -necessity bent for-
werd, that my face was looking down
upon the top of the bellows, and that
1 was so securely vveclged into this
position that it was only by scramb-
lieg across the top of the bellows I
could possibly get out; and this was
only possible, when the wiqd was out
and the bellows at its lowest level.
Immedeately, when I saw the diffi-
culty, I endeavored to get one leg
upon the bellows, in the hope I
Might be able to scramble over it to
the other side before it rose much
higher. But it • had already risen
too high for this: Every movement
of the handle, worked by the man
.outside, raised the large moving sur-
face an additional ineh or so. It was
now breast -high, within two inches
of,my face. To raise my head was
iMpossible, for, as before remark-
• ed, a row of sharp -screw (techanic-
ally called "tapped wire ") was di-
redlyover the nap of my neck. All
this time, though it was for a few
seconds, I was acutely conscious of
the steady progiess of the summit I
can ever. now remember every word
of the sienorous Dean's peroration.
A sudden thought flashed across my
mind : "What a fool I atn ! why
• not open the .escape -valve 7" Now
the escape -valve, • which is an ar-
rangement for preventing • the bel-
lows from bursting, was, as usual, in
the middle of the wide expanse- of
the bellows top. Tf I could only
press this • down, the air would es-
cape, the bellows would sink and I
might yet get free,. I strained and
readhed, but in vain; my longest
finger coal& not be got within six
inches of the valve. I thought of
my two -foot rule; but, alas in my
• consternation I had let it drop. On
went the sermoni "beat, beat,"
went my heart. The bellows -top
.was now touching my nbse, and the -
sharp points were being gradually
driven into the back of my neck. I
struggled, but in vain. It was no
use. I was wedged in, like some
poor victim, in a torture machine of
the Inquisition. " Pump, pimp,"
went the bellovh-handle ; down
came the blood from innutuerable
punctures in the back of my neck.
My agtiony was intense. My face

There are but few preparations of medicine
-which have withstood the impartial judgment of
the people for any great length of time. One of
these is THOMAS' ELECTRIC Om, purely a prepar-
ation of six of some of the best oils that are known,
each one possessing virtues of its ()an. Scientific
physicians know that medicines may be fanned of
several ingredients in certain fixed proportiona of
greater power, and producing effecto which eould
never result from the use of an)' one, of them, or in
'different combinations. Thus in the preparation
of this oil a chemical change takes place, forming
a componnd which could not by any possibility be
made from any other combination or proportions
of the same ingredients, or any other ingredients,
and entirely different from anything ever before
made, one which produces the most astonishing re-
sults, and having a wider xauge of application
than any medicine ever before discovered. It con-
tains no alcohol or other volatile liquids conse-
quently loses nothing by evaporation. Wherever
applied you get the beneftt of every drop; -whereas
with other preparations nearly all the alcohol is
lost in that way, and you get only the small quan-
tity of oils which they may contain.
