    A NARROW
ESCAPE
By D. CRITTENDEN LYTLE
Copyright, 1010, by American Press
Association.
I was In Kgypt beforo tho fanatical
outbreak of 1882. When a troubto of
Hint kind is coming thoso who nro not
In iho secret either know nothing
about It or havo only vaguo suspi
cions. I heard somo ugly rumors as to
what was about to happen, but did not
know how much dcpcndcnco could bo
placed upon them. To all outward ap
pearances everything was moving on
as usual.
I was obliged to go to Isinallla on
business. If I had known tho condi
tion of the peoplo of tho country I
should not havo trusted myself out of
Port Said, where Kuropeans were com
paratively safe. To make a Journey
Into tho interior was madness, but I
did not know It. Indeed, I only real
ized that under (he circumstances 1
would riitlK-r not go. A mutter of or
dlnnry gnlv and being murdered were
tho alternatives.
1 went on a night trull). lining somo
what finical about my diet, I took with
in u a hamper lllled with as succulent
eatables as I could get together and on
tho top placed a box of cigars from
which only a fow of the weeds had
bcou taken. I got Into my compart
ment, put my hand baggago on the
ruck and settled myself for n journey
Doing In n smoking compartment, I Mi
a cigar.
Tho compartment wna tilled with ua
tlvcs, I being tho only European In it.
This in itself was not encouraging
Tho train had hardly got under way
when an old Arab sheik sitting oppo
slto me leaned forward and cnlml
took my cigar from between my Hps
and, placing It between his own, hiiioI;
cd it himself.
To havo resented tho insult would
have been equivalent to inviting the
man to stab me. 1 therefore paid no
attention to him and, taking a nows
pnpor from my pocket, begnu to read
that Is, 1 pretended to read, but 1 had
no Idea of what was on tho sheet bo
fore me, my mind being taken up with
thu fact that 1 was In a compartment
with soven Arabs and utterly at their
mercy. My eyes .appeared to bo llxcd
upon the paper, hut I was casting
ulcU glances sldcwlso at the natives
and know by their chatter and occa
sloaal looks at mo that I was the sub
ject of their conversation.
Then a lucky thought occurred to
mo. 1 reached up to the rack, got my
box of cigars from my hamper, took
out ono for myself and handed tho box
to tho sheik who had robbed mo of the
one 1 had been smoking, lie took It,
appropriated a handful of tho contents
and passed It to tho others, who did
tho same, and the box was returned
to me empty.
Notwithstanding my peaco offering
1 expected every moment to feol cold
steel entering my vitals. Most of the
Arabs wore long knives whore they
could be seen, and 1 knew not what
other weapons they hud concealed.
As for me, 1 was unnrmed, and even
If 1 had been armed my opouontf-
wcro seven to one.
1 cannot describe tho agony of thai
night, expecting, as 1 did, death al
any moment. The Arabs In my com
partmeut paid no attention to any
thing that was going on In the rest ol
the train, but I hud a vague feellnt
that something very Important mlghl
be going ou, 1 can't account for this
feeling, for I hoard tio sound to pro
duce it. I only know that I felt that
there was murder In tho air.
Finally their looks and acts were he
suspicious that 1 bethought myself ol
soino other way similar to my offer ol
cigars to plneato them. Then' mi
luncheon occurred to me. Headline.
up again to the rack, 1 brought down
my hamper, opened It and displayed
tho eatables. Uvory man's eyes wore
on them, but not a man moved to
touch any of them, 1 offered the hum
per to the mnn who sat next me, but
ho declined. In turn I handed It to
every man In tho compartment; but.
though they all looked with eager eyes
upon tho viands, not a man would ac
cept a morsel.
At 11 rut 1 was astonished at this.
Then 1 remembered that no Arab will
break bread with an enemy.
Tho moment this occurred to mo I
know I was doomed. I put my luunper
back on tho rack and, wrapping myself
In my overcoat, lay back In my scat
with my eyes closed, to await what
over was In store for me.
I hoard a great deal of wrangling -on
tho part of tho Arabs, but I thought I
would rather rely on my weakness
than ou being prepared for resistance
that would bo useless, So I did not
open my eyes. Presently 1 felt n hand
ou my arm. Thinking my tlmo hud
eomo. I looked, and there was tho
sheik who had taken my cigar from
my mouth holding out n ploco of dry
bread. I took It anil, biting from It
ehowed vigorously.
A Hood of relief and Joy scorned to
have been poured over mo. I know
from that moment I waa safe. Iteuch
lug up for my Immpor. I took It down
and handed it to tho sheik Ho helped
himself, then passed It mound to the
others, each man partaking plentifully
of tho contents,
Now that they had broken bread
with me and t having no more to fear
I again leaned back in my sent and
this tlmo slept, I knew thnt I was as
- safe from my Arab companions as if I
were In my own bed at. homo.
Hut I did not roach Ismalllu thnt
night. In the morning I found that
tho natives had murdered tho engineer,
stoker and every European on tho train,
"A 8hot 'TfiarModotro"ubTB7
An odd Incident hannoncd lu tho
then Danish West Indies In tho last
century that nearly caused serious In
ternational complications. An Ameri
can marksman, paying a visit to Char-
lotto Amnlla, amused tho governor iy
nn exhibition of ills skill with tho
rlflo. Bitting on tho veranda of tho
government house, ho said that no
could cut with n bullet tho signal hal
yards ou the flngstnff of tho fort and
lower tho Danish standard to tho
ground. Ah tho lines wcro almost in
vlsiblo in tho dlstanco tho governor
was willing to bet that ho could not do
it. Tho shot rang out, and tho flag fen.
Presently a horseman dashed up, In
forming tho governor that soino ono
had tired ou tho Hag. Thero was great
cxcltomcnt. Tho governor, nono too
nonnlar. It scorns, with tho mllltnry,
ruined his polltlcnl futuro by admit
ting that tho affair was a Joko In
which ho connived. Iteport being sent
to nononhniron. hlchly colored, of
course, by tho commandant, his excel
lency was summarily removed.
Cultivating Ginger.
Ginger is mado n matter of scientific
culture in Jamaica. It is propagatod
by cutting up small pieces of tho root,
and, if possible, rich, cool soli from
recently cleared woods Is selected for
It. It Is n great lmpovcrlshcr of tho
soil and grows so luxuriantly thnt In
a short tlmo a llttlo plcco of root will
spread so as to produce nearly a pound
of now roots. Tho sets nro planted In
March or April and get to tliofr full
growth nbout .September. Tho roots
nro dug usunlly In .Jamaica In January
or February. They nro washed, ex
posed to tho sun until thoroughly dried
and packed in parcels of nbout n hun
dred pounds each. In order to dry
them more rapidly they nro first scald
ed In n llttlo copper pot in order to de
stroy life, of which tho roots nro very
tcnnclous. Whlto ginger and black
ginger nro, from tho same roots, tho
difference urlslng from methods of
curing. Itools for uugnr preserving are
dug while qulto young, before the
steins nro moro than fivo or six Inches
high.
A Luckless Word,
Superstition dies hard, at least In the
north of Kugland. Ou Tyucsldo It Is
reckoned highly unlucky to hear or
mention tho word "pig," nnd evil con
sequOnccs can only bo nverted by
touching cold Iron. If thnt material Is
not nt hand Its name must bo uttered
aloud as tho next best thing.
It Is no uncommon thing to see n
group of sailors or workmen suddenly
scatter to Iny hold of Iron railings,
lampposts, etc., when by chnnco "pig"
has slipped Into their conversation.
A stranger to tho district was not
long ago puzzled to seo four llttlo shoe
blacks, squinted at a gamo of cards
ou their blacking box, suddenly scram
ble to their feet, run to somo Iron posts
sovernl yards awny, touch them nnd
then return and resumo their game
qulto unconcernedly. When ho obtained
an explanation his amusement equaled
his astonishment. Tho origin of tho
superstition seems to bo unknown.

A Chemist's Happy Thought.
Tho guests at a hall given at thu
Tuilcrlos, Purls, were onco distressed
by Homothlug In the ulr which Irritated
everybody. Thu most fnmous chemist
of tho day was consulted as to tho
mysterious enuso. Ills son-in-law, Du
mas, had the happy thought that per
haps tho Irritating particles lu the nlr
came from thu wax caudles. Ho found
ou analysis that these caudles had
been bleached by chlorine. Immediate
ly they were lighted a compound was
added to the air that Irritated throats
and noses. This chnnco discovery led
Dumas to study tho wholo effect of
chlorine, with farrenchlng results lu

' " "A Curious Painting".""
In Japan thero is n very famous
painting which no amount of mouoy
could buy and which Is tho mnstcr
plcco of a famous nrtlst who lived sev
eral centuries ngo. Vlowlng tho paint
ing in the daytime, ono Is disappoint
ed. It shows nothing moro Minn n very
commonplace landscape unrelieved by
mountains or hills. As soon, however,
as night falls ono begins to realize tho
peculiar merit of the picture, for upon
the canvas thero appears a lutnlnnuus
water buffalo (caribou) browsing upon
tho grass nt Its feet. Tho artist who
painted t''s plcturo discovered n cer
tain phosphorescent paint, which ho
obtained from tho bodies of certain
mollusks or fish, and with which lie
painted tho buffalo that, Invlslblo in
daylight, Is luminously brilliant In tho
dark. The secret of making this paint
died with tho nrtlst, Tho plcturo,
which hangs In a Utiddhlst temple, has
proved a fertile sourco of superstition,
tho priests claiming thnt tho buffalo
hides awny In thu shade behind somo
trees In tho plcturo during tho heat of
tho day, coming out at night to graze.
Startled Their Host.
A Now Yorker decided to give n din
ner In recognition of hospitality show
ered upon him by Ills friends recent
ly. Ho nsked two women ho kuew to
go to a Jeweler's nnd pick our some
llttlo souvenirs for the women guests,
says the Now York Sun. Tho host did
nut know It, but u detective accompa
nied the gifts to tho house. Each wo
man found ut her plnco nt the table
a handsome box When these were
opened there were cries of admiration.
Ono womnu drow out n diamond ring,
another nn emerald brooch, another n
diamond crescent, a fourth a necklaco
of pearls, another n diamond tiara,
mid so on, until the output of tho
boxes represented nbout $.X),000. Tho
host hud forced a smile when thu first
box was opened. As cncli trinket re
vealed seemed moro costly than tho
last his Jaw fell. Perspiration began
to trickle down his face, which got so
red that the women beenmo alarmed.
Then they explained that tho Jewels
wero a Joko and wcro borrowed for
tho occasion.
Tho Picture In the Watch.
Tho following nnccdoto Is related of
Jcromo lionnpnrte: Ho had been play
ing cards until ho lost nil his ready
money, then pledged his rings and
Uually laid his watch on the table. It
was n small gold one, the back of
which opened with u spring. A Indy
overlooking tile gamo admired tho
wutch and took It up to cxnmluo It
Ou her attempting to open the back
Jerome Immediately clasped It and
said that must not bo done. His wife,
who stood by, Insisted upon knowing
what was lu it, grow nugry, reproach
ed him with having somo keepsake of
a favorito thero nnd finally, bursting
Into tears, quit the room. Jcromo then
opened tho watch nnd showed to all
present that It contained a beautiful
miniature of his first wife, Betsy Pat
terson, with tho remark, "You sec, I
hope, that J could not with propriety
let her seo It." It was notorious that
ho remained deeply nttnehed to his
first wlfo long nfter their separation.
The Mule's Ears.
Evolutionists explain satisfactorily
that tho reason that tho dog's cars lop

has lain within the protecting Influence
of his hut nnd lire. Tho dog's curs nro
said to have originally stood upright,
ns do the volfrf today, but gradually
as tho necessity for keen hearing bo
came less Imperative, the dog's ears
began to lop. Hut how about the

explain why the mule's ours have, not
