THE ESCAPE;
•
The last palupde-..over, ! and limbs long
stiffened felt lissom once more with the life
of twenty-five. Now for a slow anti
uautioua creep along the gully by which
water came into the township ; later on he
would bethink him of that narrow escape
at the third doorway. Whist ! a maws
ht'ud in the road, and he bent down once
..more behind the eartbridge, and pushed his
way upstream with difhculty, showing as
little of himself as possible. It was an ofli-
t'et• coming into town late, probably been
at seine Indian hut in eine of their villagea
near by, too near the fort to dare vengeance
on Spanish gallantries. John Tisden had
ufteu heard the Spaniards talk of the
ruffian girls while he worked in the fort's
plana.
Very silently ; the moonlight was
troublesome to one just escaping, but,
prelimthe Lord who watches over bold
ICuulishmee, the guard had not yet discov•
erect their loss, and the water was bearably
cold. Never return thanks too soon ! The
officer felt a romantic wish to look back on
the spot where lately he had satisfied his
heart's latest desire. Ho reined his horse
on a rising slope, and, turning in his saddle,
glanced back over the shadow -dappled
brill so that his bye, runniug up the shiny
ribbon of stream, suddenly saw the black
dot. laboring away against its current.
Instincts of destruction ran along the
nerves of his head ; he drew a pistol and
tired, sending a splash of water over John's
read, while the echoes smote the fort•ress-
,ea11a and lost themselves in the woodland
behind. A low clamor arose out of San
lige ; John rose out of the stream and ran
1 o the copses, The Spaniard spurred after
nim with drawn sword, eager for the
pleasure of slicing 11im when caught up ;
to a few moments he was alongside, but
this being a shadowed stop he stayed his
/laud overhead till the stroke should be
,ere. In that moment John doubled like a
!tare and rushed desperately at the soldier,
who reined up all atones and brought down
ilia blade—vainly. For the cunning Eng.
Tishman ducked under the horse's body,
then popped out, seized his foe's leg and
foot, turd with a sudden fierce heave shot
the soldier sideways out of his saddle and
en to his head. There he lay broken -neck-
ed, while the victor grasped the bridle,
hent to earth and snatched the sword,
amounted the animal and stuck the weapon's
point into its haunch ; otI shot the horse
with a snort of pain, while the clatter of
pursuers ,rose behind, finally sinking away
.as the pine trees flew by. Then, as the
moon entered a thick cloud bank, they
carne to an open prairie, and onward into
lerkueas they went without more than the
+lightest of stumbles. Several miles ; the
hotss began to breathe hard and sob, then
settled into a slow trot.
More miles. The trot became a walk,
.uui the walk more difficult ; more miles
yet, very long ones, and the earth went up
3101 duwu as the darkness became grey—
there wcro low hills and shallow ravines,
then came rocks and ledges anti cliffs ; the
gray speedily thinned, the horse !topped at
a clic[' wall.
To the right, to the left, John looked for
an opening ; there was none. He raised his
Lends, licked a finger of the cleanest,
thought he felt a faint freshness on the left
aide of it, and so turned in that direction.
After some hundred yards he carne to a
crack in the wall ; he pushed into it. There
was hardly room at tirat, but it widened
into a chasm, and wound along in darkness
with a band of light at the top—then carne
ajsudden descent, and the wearied creature
he rode stumbled and threw him into apool
of water.
The shock of the plunge brought him to-
gether again. He struggled beneath the
water, carne up at last, half choked, and
pulled hintself upon a rocky ledge with the
sword still hanging from his wrist. Looking
for the horse, he saw nothing but a violent
commotion on the water surface, which
presently ceased ; a few air bubbles carne to
the top and broke, that was all ; his rescuer
had ended its life in the depths from which
he hate escaped.
Then he sat for a space and thought ; he
could not stay there, they would track him
to the rock wall and cleft, ; was there an•
other way, to the other side ! The cold,
shut-in lake was quite still now, the cleft
by which he had conte in was dimly visible
across the dark level ; he stood up and
looked behind hint; the cleft continued
there like a narrow road upward. Then he
knew that he had conte to the hidden
source of the stream that passed mysterious-
ly uuderrro t daylight t, u ui, and came co dayh,ht in
the country where the Spaniards had placed
Fort San Jago. He went along the chasm
and after an hour or two stood on the plat-
form ; bare rock and nothing else; he went
on higher still, with hunger asserting itself,
miles and more miles yet. The sun came
out and sent yellow rays across the pin.
uncles, casting purple shadows as queerly
shaped as they. He climbed to the highest
of these rock -teeth and saw a vast upward
plain, with an orange -tinted rim ; here and
there gray twists, where a slight valley
came, and a few lonely stones.—really great
boulders of a primival sea; he looked be.
hind and only a faint green tinge on that
horizon indicated the grass country of San
Jago, but he felt that even now they might
be at the cleft in the rock -wall, those
Spaniards who treated captives so' hardly,
so there was no course but forward.'
Forward then he went, and the same be-
came thick and soft underfoot so that he
had to use the long, Spanish blade to help
hint in walking. At.last even that became
an encumbrance and he would have cast it
away only the knot had become twister[
and would take a little time to undo, so he
kept it out of indolence and ebbing wits.
Here and there came a harder surface which
was restful to the feet, and then he would
sick for a space and try to hope he might
get across this place; then he went on and
on, with the glare in his eyes from below
and a hot, gray sky overhead.
The suit heated his wet rags; they be-
came burning moist; they blistered his
back, sore already from the payment of
yesterday's forced labor in the fortress; he
had to turn round at times and give his
back a relief by being. roasted in front.
At last the whole place swam round
hien, there came moments when ho seemed
treading over a crimson waste under a ver-
million sky, and with !the first pains of
thirst deadening the ache of hunger he lay'
down in the shadow of the first rock he
reached. There he stayed till no shadow
was left, shrinking away from the hot, en-
croaching yellow till Ile was at last covered
by it, then rose again and plodded along
through the scorching hours witthe.burnt
feet in his crackling old shoes.
His wits were all abler, but his bodily
senses felt, that the whole land lay on a
vast upward slope, a continual gentle pres-
sure back, as it wore, to each toilseme step
he took. In the late afternoon he felt a
slight pulling tendency, a sign that he was
on an imperceptible descent; then came a
delinate long pleat in the sand, the ascent
began again, and he fell stupidly down,
with some indistinct fancy of staying there
till nothing was lett of him but bones—
baked, dusty bones. Birt w',en his face
touched the hot sand he got up again and
trod on. He had no fear of pursuit now,
for he was in the Thirst Land no man en-
tered to return. The Spaniards had spoken
of it, and they had let•him gelato it. know-

mind follow one of 1110 stars. By this 10ue
a little shadow lay at itis feet, there was a
rook not far away, anti ice went and lay
down there, trying to be sensible and
steady -headed. He was glad he keptthe
sword now, because if his tnieeries becaine
00 sore he had with it a way to cut then, ;
sleep was denied him by tite keen thirst
that baked his tongue into wood, but it was
utnch to escape the red-hot fingers of the
sun,
As he lay there with his battered old hat
over his face the stillness cattle terribly on
him at bines. He thought he heard distant
voices calling, and fancied some too had
crept up to the other side of the stone and
was stealing round on him—then it seemed
as if he was lying o11 English sand and the
sea was foaming round Plymouth break-
water hard by—then he raised his hat for
the fortieth time to think for the fortieth
time oflthis great Thirst Land, before his
lightheartedness began once more, together
with the burning aehe for water in every
flesh -atom.
The shadow lengthened, the sand in it
cooled, the relief was grateful, though
small Later on the sun went down, a red
globe in a purple haze ; the stars appeared,
and he followed one for a long time till he
got among rocks and bruised his body
against thein in the dark. It was of no use
truing on till moonrise ; he lay there m1 the
stony floor, nod his thirst kept hint from
feeling the hardness of it—for a while.
At last he could bear it no longer, but
rose and ran on, then presently struck
against one of the stones and fell, stun•
red, as he had fallen before out in the sand
tracks. Still the man was not beaten.
When he had recovered he wiped his heavy
eyes with the puck of his hand and
telt his way along through the rocky
maze, tapping his sword on each side
and following the passages, holding on to
his star with the bulldog instinct cf his
race. At last the moon came out and lit
the plain, showing it mounting up and up
in a long, slow slope till the eye lost it in
darkness, but covered so far with stones,
stones, stones, like the graveyard of the
whole human race. So lie went on, rat-
tling his tongue about in his arid mouth,
wondering why he did not lie down and
die at once, wily ho did not at once fall on
Ids blade and and his portion of life, .e et
persevering all the time, no unworthy mean
of his countryside and yeoman name. Ho
had 110 visions now, 1n1 the night; they
were reserved for the treacherous day,
wh101) the guiding stars should be hidden.
So through the long hours he travelled,
and at last shuffled out into places where
the stones, that dreadful multitude all ex•
actly alike, stood in groups only. The
Moon sped on her course, and the ground
underfgot sent a ring from his steel staff—
it was rock.
.Then the stones ceased altogether and a
series of low ridges came; they taxed his
shaky legs anti arms to their full, low
though they were, so that he lay down to
rest 011 each as he got upon it. Then he
came to the long ridge, highest of all this
hugh inclined land, and saw its edge wind-
ing away to right, to left, for miles in the
herd moonlight, and the rock floor sloping
downward far below him, for miles and
miles more.
Looking behind, the sight of the fearful
maze of wilderness he had wonderfully
come through filled hum with terror, and he
fled away from it; clown and on, only to
fall again like a child. Then for awhile his
tortured frame could carry him no more ;
there he lay, deliriously mumbling about
streams anti lakes, and fountarts, till the
sun came and struck his hare head with its
hot rays. Still he lay there, now awake
and, strange to say, not mad, though very
weak, sorely suffering, and- hardly able to
think at all.
Indeed, he did not think, but merely fol-
lowed up his instinct when he crawled up
on to his feet and staggered along, swaying
one way for many paces, then the other,
hanging his hands and hear, moaning in a
dry, broken way, like cut bellows, yet still
going on. And then his dim eye received
a refreshing momentary coolness—a plant,
growing green at his feet !
Down he sank upon it. seized. it, chewed
the dusty leaves ; there were little drib-
let eartht
a o f here and there. Another bit
of green caught his eye ; he raised his
heavy head; and saw that 100 paces away
the plateau on which he stood broke off
sheer. He had crossed the desert,for down
there, 3,000 feet, below where green plains,
palms and a river, and beyond—the blue
Pacific.
The poor, wasted creature raised his
bony, cracked claws and gurgled with tri-
umph. He had cheated the Spaniards and
the Thirst Lands ; hurrah !
And there were more plains near the
edge ; to them he hastened, with the blade
still dragging from his wrist, to fall prone
on a little group of them, and ou a huge
pufr-adder lying almost invisible along an
earth -grove. Instantly the beast drew
back its tread and struck him on the bare
leg, then fled.
A rage tilled him; he seized the sword in
both shaking hands, brought it down at the
marked back, missed it, fell forward, and
the steel bent and broke under him as the
enemy glided away. But after it he pant-
ed with the strength of revenge ; caught it
up as it, twisted by a large stone, pushed
the stone over its neck by an effort, and,
kneeling, cut its writhing body into long
strips with the fragment of his blade. Then
he got back somehow to the green tutts,
and while the poison worked its way to his
heart, sweetened his last moments of life
with those leaves, till a stupor came over
him ani he slept with his destroyer the
sleep of death on the border of the Sweet
Palm Coast, as the Indian called it in their
tongue.
Such was the escape of John Tilden,
whose hones have long become dust, the
only man who ever crossed the Tierra de
Sed.
The Ages of Poeta.
Lord Tennyson lived far longer than the
average British poet. Shakespeare died at
52, Nikon at 66, Byron at 3.6, Scott at 61,
Pope at 66, Thomas at 48, Campbell at 67,
Coleridge at 62, Cowper at 69, Butler at 62,
Burns at 37, Shelley at 30, Keats at 26,
Leigh Hunt at 75, Chatterton at 18, and
Chaucer, "the father of English poetry,"
at 60. Tennyson was born three years be-
fore Browning, who died, it will be remem-
bered, in 1889.
Fatal Flower Polo.
The danger of placing flower pots on win-
dow Bills with no sufficient protection
against their falling into the street, have
been exemplified in a dreadful manner in
Paris. A gentleman, M. );'awl Marcel, wee
passing by No. 200 in the Rue St. Denis
when a flowerpot fell upon him from a win-
dow above. It came with terrible force
upon his head, and fractured his skull.
The unfortunate gentleman was taken to
the St. Louis hospital, where he died after
a couple of hours of suffering.

ICELAND.
Not the Most Attractive Place tin flee
World.
Iceland is little better than a desert.
The peculiar configuration renders inter-
course difficult, anti, along with the barren.
ness of the soil makes the conditions of
existence strangely hard. People with so
little to make life attractive might be
pardoned if they were to sink into a stolid
indifference to everything but the struggle
to keep alive. The site of Iceland is
greater than that of Ireland, and the
population numbers 70,000 souls ; but the
only inhabitable portion is a narrow strip
of pasture land extending like a green
girdle round the coast and up the deep,
narrow fiords. Tho interior of the
country is a howling waste of sand
and ice, traversed by darting glacial
rivers, and utterly incapable of attp•
porting more than a few scattered inbabi•
tants. Orale is the only considerable crop.
'rhe hills and valleys are treeless and afford
at best but scanty pasturage for horses,
cows and sheep. Roads and bridges scarce-
ly exist. A Danish merchant at Reykjavik
has a wheeled carriage, but in the interior
such a conveyance is unknown and would
be useless if known. The backs of horses
are the only moans of transportation across
country. Small boats carry travellers over
dangerous rivers, while the horses swim on
ahead. Hardly anything that ministers to
comfort, to say nothing of luxury, is pro-
duced ill Iceland. Every nail in the Ice-
landic house, every pane of glass, every bit
of wooden flooring, every insignificent bit,
of furniture, has to be transported labor-
iously from one of the seaports to its desti-
nation.
That the Icelanders are poor goes with-
out saying. There is little or no (tome
market, for every Icelander itas the salve
product to sell as his neighbor. The cir-
culation of money is, therefore, very
small. if a farmer has direct dealings
with the agents for foreign markets, and
is sufficiently prosperous to have a little
surplus each year he may handle a little
money, but general the trading at the
,seaports is literally trading. An Ice•
lander barters a certain number of horses
or sheep or rolls of dried fish or bales
of hay for a supply of groceries and
other necessaires of life.—Atlantic Month•
ly.
Mr. 13ltalne's Personal "Magnetism."
That Mr. Blaine, in spite of his short-
comings, attracted the attention and en-
gaged the interest of his countrymen in
so remarkable a degree was in greatest part
owing to his extraordinary power of per-
sonal fascination. No public man in the
United States, in our day, united in him-
self so many of those elements of popular-
ity which will not only "make friends"
among the politicians and chain the mul-
titude, but also win the good -will, and oc-
casionally tnieigate, if not disarm, the crit-
icism of men of thought and principle. A
naturally vivacious and versatile, mind,
well stored with that kind of information
which makes conversation interesting
and attractive ; a ready, brilli-
ant wit, and the capacity of en-
joying the wit of others ; a manner of
cheery, jovial, apparently confidential good -
fellowship, making every one coining in
contact with him feel himself the object of
special interest ; genuine, sympathetic
good -nature, rather inclined gratefully to
remember a friendly act than to resent, and
punish an unfriendly one ; an uncommonly
retentive memory for names and faces ; a
quick perception of the •movements of
popular opinion, and a ready inclination to
yield to then ; an eloquence neither re-
markably argumentative nor elevated, but
endowed with a peculiar dash, giving the
impression of courageous frankness—all
these qualities contributed to that, "tnagne.
tism" with which Mr. Blaine attracted and
held a large following of personal admirers
by no means confined to his own politi-
cal party. 1t may be said that if
he was not in the true sense a leader
on the field of opinion, he was
a leader on the field of sentiment. His fol-
lowers and friends sincerely believed that
if he were put in the proper place of power
he would certainly do something brilliant
that would redound greatly to the advan-
tage of the American people to 111e glory of
tete- American name, although nobody seem-
ed to have a definite and clear conception
of what that brilliant achievement would
be. No doubt he was himself inspired by
the ambition of making this republic the
ruling power of the whole Atnerican eenti-
nent and one of the most influential powers
in the world, no matter what might be-
come of our safe and time-honored tradi-
tions of foreign policy.—Harper's Weekly.
