I'TUANKING the real ndven
turcB of Latude, the lnmous
prisoner of the llntstilo, or
the Hctltlous escapade of
the count of Monte Cristo.
was tlie sensational escape
from the German citadel at
Glatz of Captain Lux, a
French officer who was ncrv-
hik a term of sis year:
prlsonment on n chnrso of
espionage. How Captain I.nx
outdid these two hcroos of
fact and fiction Is beat seen
from his own simple account
of his lllght
"In all the six months 1
was at Glatz," he said, "1
never got n glimpse of my
prison from the outside. I wns constantly and
closely guarded. All day long I was rigotously
constrained to keep my room nnve that from
10 a. m. till noon and from 2:15 till 4:15 I was
Buffered to walk about the Interior of the fort
ress and talk to my fellow-prisoners, while for
an hour morning and evening an otllcer took
mo for a walk on tho rampart to enjoy the
fresli nir blowing on the height.
"Well, I was bored, and I wrote to this ef
fect to my people who communicated with my
excellent friends. Never shall I forget the
warm thrill 1 had when I got the first com
munication tolling mo that my friends wcro
busy on my behalf.
"The surveillance was very strict. All my
letters were opened and read, those I received
as well as those 1 wrote. My books and news
papers wcro likewise opened and anything of
a seditious naturo was taken away. Often
when my luncheon or dinner arrived I found
tho rolls had been cut into slices in case they
might contain a file, and on some occasions
even tho fruit was sectioned by way of pre
caution. "My friends had therefore to communicate
with mo in secret, and this they accomplished
by tho old trick of invisible ink. I used to
have my letters handed to me with the seal or
the envelope open, and tho letters themselves
contained nothing calculated to arouse alarm
"But as soon as my warden had left mo I
used to ungum carefully the flaps of the en
velope and hold the inner side to the bars of
tho great white-tiled stove standing in tho
room. Then as the paper crackled and con
traded a line or two of writing would appear
telling mo how the plan progressed and what
my part was to be.
"I, too, was able to communicate with un
friends In this way, but how I managed it Is
still a secret. I let them know that what I
must have above alt things else was money
and some tools for removing certain obstacles
I had noted as being likely to Impede my prog
ress when the moment of my escape arrived
Once out of my cell, I should have to open two
locked doors and then get through a window
protected by a stout Iron bar solidly wedged
In masonry.
"From Hit) window thero was a drop which
was not too dangerous to jump, perhaps, but
the nolso I should have made in alighting on
the flagged courtyard beneath would certainly
have been heard by the sentries, so I had to
have material to make a rope ladder.
"All these observations I passed on to my
devoted friends, very discreetly and at rare
intervals.
"Every day I received from Paris a large
parcel of newspapers and magazines. These
were opened in the governor's quarters and
then sent In to me after they had heen rough
ly tied up again with tho cord fastening them.
It was this cord which attracted my attention
It was not the ordinary scrap or end of string
with which such rolls of newspapers are gen
erally fastened, but nice, new string, evidently
taken off a fresh ball. I examined It carefully
and my heart gave a great leap. The cord
was waxed!
"Every day brought its packet of papers or
reviews wound up with the same strong twine,
and one day I found under tho flap of an en
velope a bill just a lino to this effect, 'Gardez
ficelle!" (Keep string.)
"Tho next Indication I had was the word
'Reliurc.' (binding), which had been written in
Invisible ink In tho envelope of a letter from
home. Ever sinco my arrival at Glatz I had
received parcels of books from Paris once or
twice a week, and this single word at once
suggested to mo what was meant. My books
were to bring mo something, too.
"One. two, three days passed, and on the
fourth my warder brought mo a box of books.
There were several mathematical treatises, for
being in tho engineers, mathematics have al
ways been a strong point with me, some yellow
paper-bound novels, and two or throe pondcious
tomes of history.
"They were Frederic Masson's works on
the gieat N'apoleon, a favorite hobby of mine.
Thero was Mosophino Imporatrlco et Heine'
and Mosophino Uepudlee' and one or two oth
ers. With my penknlfo I silt open tho backs
of tho paper-bound novels nothing! Then
tho mathematical hooks samo result! Mas-

son on the Empress Josephine also nothing!
What did It mean?
"Then as I put 'Josephine Pepudlco' discon
solately back on the table something jingled
on the floor. I stooped and picked it up. It
was a Gorman mark. I seized the book again
and there emerging from the cover near where
my renknife had made its first Incision I saw
the edgo or another silver piece protruding.
"Frantically I tore the cover of and behold,
betwen the outer and inner coveting were
twenty marks In silver. Looking again at the
other Masson volume I found gummed botweon
two sheets of cardboard two exquiMtely finish
ed files, made of the finest steel and shaped
flat fo as to fit exactly in the space between
the coverings of tho book.
"Attor that my reputation as a student was
established In the citadel of Glatz. Every mo
ment I could spare from my rcconnoitering
walks I spent at my table, poring over tho
books which now nrrived regularly every five
or six days.
"In order to allay suspicion I applied for
gum nnd brushes and amused mysolf by bind
ing nearly all tho paper books lu my Httlo
prison library In clean blue paper so that my
oporatlons with the penknife on tho weekly
consignments of books might give the impres
sion that I was merely preparing them for re
blndlng. "Tho authorities were quite touched by the
solicitude of my family. " 'What a good friend
your brother is to you,' a German prisoner said
to mn ono day on hearing I had leeched a
present of a splendid box of chalks. Ho Httlo
knew that these colored pencils contained not
chalk, hut each a precious implement to help
mo in my escape. I had a Sandow exerciser
sent mo ono day. Ono of the grip3 was des
tined, I knew, to form the hnndlo of n saw
which wns contained In ono of my chalks, tho
saw itself fitting Into a harmless-looking ruler
which my thoughtful brother had bent to mo
to asrist me In my mathematical calculations.
"Then there was tho beautiful bath towel,
a great big one. matlo of the solldcst linen
fibre. The authorities thought thi'J was for use
alter my daily tub. In reality I had to warn
my friends that the parcel cord was hardly
enough for my purpeso and I might have to
supplement it.
"Just before Christmas I received a reason
able present trom an old schoolfellow of mine
in tho shape of a calendar. How I longed for
Its arrival, for 1 had been warned that it would
contain a German general staff map of tho en
virons of Glatz showing the way to tho Aus
trian frontier, which was only twelve miles
distant.
"We had determined that tho best lime for
tlio attempt would bo Christmas, when disci
pline was rather relaj.cd at tho citadel and
many of tho prisoners away on parole.
"Hut I was not certain what day I could best
slip away, so, in the event of not being nblo
to depend on tho friendly automobile, I had
supplied myself with a complete disguise.
Pleading the wet weather, I had obtained per
mission for a mackintosh to bo sent up to tho
citadel from tho town on tho grounds that
whether it rained or not I could not forego my
daily walk on the ramparts. I alBo got a gray
alpaca cap of tho kind that German men are
In tho habit pf donning when in railroad cars
With a pair of gold-rlmmcd spectacles, which
I had already, my dlsgulso was complete.
"On tho morning of Christmas ovo I kne.
that everything was ready I had learned thnt
the fortress authorities were giving a Christ
mas troo to the military warders In tho nfter
noon, and this was tho moment I had chosen
for my attempt.
"I came In from my walk at -1:15, as usual,
and presently 1 heard tho disMnt echo of foot
steps as the prison staff trooped along the
passages to tho room wliero tho Christmas
party was being held.
"With my mifkintOHh over my m-m conceal
ing my rope ladder, my saw and files In my
pocket, and my money In my purse, I gently
opened the door of my cell. Not a sound. Tho
tlmo had come.
"I camo to tho door at the end of the pas
sage and picked the lock In a hand's shako.
1 knew that yet another door was before mo
before I got to my window and that the lock
might give mo inoro trouble. It did, anil I had
to work hard to get that door open, I was per
spiring I reply as I passed thiougli it and came
beneath the window giving access to the fort
ress garden, which had et to bo traversed.
"One's doubles ouly begin with a file, and
more than once while engaged on that solid
Iron bar I despaired of overcoming this ob
stacle. For four mortal hours 1 sawed away,
the peiopliailon pouiing down my face. I had
to stop eery minute to listen If any one wcro
coming, hut all lomalnod still.
"When I look back on those four hours be
hind thnt grated window I don't know how I
held out, nnd I can hardly recall how I got
through and let myself down the sixteen feet
separating mo from tho giound. All I know Is
that I left a ntump of bar on which I had fixed
my ladder, and a minitto later I sprnng noise
lessly to earth
"Hero 1 found myself In some gardens which
I crossed stealthily. I knew what wns to come
My objective was u high Iron gate surmounted
bv a gas lamp, whero I knew a centry would
be posted. Once past tills danger point and 1
was free of tho cltadol at least. For the
gate gave on to the roadway.
"Stealing cautiously ovor the ground and
picking my way I camo to tho high fortress
wall. Stop by step I sidled along that wall
until I reached (he gat'- I f-cnlH It nnd look,
ing over the top buw In tho road Immediately
beneath me tho spike of tho sentry's helmet
Hashing in the rays of the gas lamp.
"If tho man had been prompted to look up
ho would have seen mo In that Instant and 1
hlimild hnv been lost. Uut ho was lust on
the turn. With his great-coat collar turned up
to his ears and his rillo firmly grnspod In his
mittened hand he tuned and tramped, stamp
Ing, back to his sentry box, which ho passed
nnd then returned In my direction.
"I ducked my head. When ho turned his
back on me again I would make a dash for It
From behind the gato I heard tho heavy tramp
cease an instant aud then recommence. Then
I raised my head. I was full In tho glnro of
the lamp It was now or never, so getting both
legs over the top of the gato I let myself fall
lightly to earth.
"1 found myself within a few yards of the
sentry and opposite a kind nf timber uholtcr on
tho oilier side nf the road. In a moment tho
sentry would turn -again, so I leaped on tiptoe
like a flash for tho shelter After waiting a
few seconds I walked boldly out, disregarding
tho sentry, down tho road to the stnllon."
Thin Is where Captain Lux's story ends. He
will say no mnro for fear of causing unpleas
antness to any one of tho.se who helped him
In his marvelous escape.
This extraordinary Monte Cristo up to dato
just walked Into tho station of Glatz and
boaided the Austrian oxpress When tho con
ductor came for tho tickets the miillled-up Ger
man gontlcman with the gold rimmed glasses
and tho green overcoat explained ho had run
a Utile faliort of money, but would pny his
ticket to tho frontier Htatiou of Mittelwaldo in
Austria. Hero ho was handed ovor to tho sta
tlonmaster, to whom lie frankly explained his
case, revealing ills Idenlty with a calmness
which stupefied that gold-lacod functionary.
Very politely the captain naked for permis
sion to uso tho station telegraph to wlro his
friends In Iludapcst for money. Permission
was granted, for, ns a political prisoner, tho
captain was immune from extradition proceed
ings, and in a few hours the money wan forth
coming for tho captain by telegraph. And
then, a free man onco more, ho took train for
Paris, having wired his friends the news of
it 1b successful escape by means of a telegram
signed "Karl Noel."

Meant to Rout the "Hants"
Why Looking Glasses Are So Generally
F'aced on Graves In South by
Colored People.
It would bo very dilllcult at this late
day to discover anything now In tho
way of negro suiierstltlous, but ono
has been unearthed In Halolgh, N. C,
which may or may havo not have wido
prevalence, according to tho Now York
Herald A negro gravoyard for they
do not uho tho word cemetery at all
is often a strango sort of placo. There
is something barbaric about it. In a
cemetery thero a great many of the
graves are covered with bright ob
jects, aud in ono ense. where a man
died of consumption, tho earth mound
is almost covered with triangular bot
tles, which onco contained medlclno,
bits of looking glass being set lioro
and there, so that tho effect Is really
dazzling.
lu another case a grave Is covered
with broken bits of looking-glass of all
sorts and shapes, nnd It is this parti
cular gravo which doveloped the fact
of tho superstition. An aged negro
was met very near it, and conversa
tion began, taking quite a range.
Thero was some discussion of "harits"
and a story is told regarding tho ap
noarnnco of oni' of these specters in
tho suburbs of Haleigli, an aged neg
ress declaring that a Httlo before
dusk slio had seen tho "hant." Hero
is what she told about it:
"I wuz standln' In my poach whon 1
seed cr sort uv twinkle in do element
(meaning the sky) and right dar and
den or hant drapped. Ho flung hissclf
a' I erbout on er little grass mound
'side an olo well what ain't got no top,
tuk off his bald, put It under ono arm
and den jump't over a road into er
gravoyard. He didn't go by er placo
whar a whole lot of horseshoes Is
nailed up on cr house do.' Hants nil'
no other kind ur sperets kin stan'
horseshoes."
Tho old darky listened to this story
very intently; his eyes rolled nnd ho
bald: "Hloss Gawd!" several tlmos.
Then hf looked about and buid: "Nig
gers shorely Is feared uv bants. Hat's
why dey puts lookln' glasses on dese
here graves. Er hant cams erlong; er
lloatin', nnd when ho sees hlsself in
dem glasses ho goes on. Ho thinks
dat er bigger hant dan ho Is or guard
In' glust him."
Try to Make Each Day Count.
"Why do so many fall In llfo? He
cauBo they don't mako each day count.
Many n tnnn who may bo full of hopo
and ambition for tho future falls to seo
this point. Ho doesn't leallzo that suc
cess depends upon persistency. Each
day lost Is a setback, a poarl drop
ped from tho necklaco. Ho loses or
wastes a day, then another. Soon tho
number of lost dnys increases, and be
fore long he finds hlniholf slipping
backward. Ileforo ho knows It ho Is
out of a position which might havo
given him n great future if ho had
taken caro of It. Take caro of tho
days and tho weeks, months and years
will take caro of themselves." Mon
