Coleman on the Cat. I
„ Mr. R. Lindray Coleman, ex-president at
the National Cyole Board of Trade, and
i ffesident of the Western Wheel Works, in
Vkneaking on the cut in bicycles, says:
■TThis cut in the price of S100 wheels has
^occasioned no surprise. We expressed the
opinion five years ago that other makers
would fully realize their error in endeav
oring to maintain a fictitious value on
their product, and that the prices we had
fixed on Crescents would become the
standard price for other high grade wheels.
‘‘One of the secrets of the success of the
Western Wheel Works is, that we not
only guarsn to uur wheels, butweguaran
tee our j r.cts us well, and the purchaser
of a Crescent in Febrvary has the ratissac
tion of knowing that his neighbor who
purchased a Crescent in July paid the
same price as he did.
“I do not anticipate that a still further
reduction in the price of bicycles will be
made this year.”

AN ADVENTURE STOKY
N March 22d, 1892,
this engine saved
the life of her en
gineer, James Rus
sell.”
These words, en
graved on a silver
plate fastened to
the cylinder of a
large Corliss en
gine in a quartz
mill In the moun
talnous region of northwestern Neva
da, commemorate a really remarkable
occurrence.
The engine stands In a space cut off
from the rest of the mill by a tight
partition. The room Is made to can
form nearly to the shape of the en
gine, the wall being about eight feet
from it on all sides, except where the
belt runs down into the fly-wheel pit.
There the partition is at least twenty
feet from the rim of the fly-wheel, and
the great belt or band which carries
the power Into the mill comes In
through a hole six feet up in the wall,
and slants down to the bottom of the
fly-wheel about the same distance be
low the floor.
Thus In order to pass from one side
of the room to the other at this end
it Is necessary either to jump over the
belt next to the fly-wheel, or to crawl
under it next to the wall. The fly
wheel is an immense affair sixteen feet
in diameter, weighing twelve tons, and
wide enough on the face for the thirty
elx-lnch belt to run. The engine makes
more than a hundred revolutions per
minute, and this belt whizzes down
through the floor toward the fly-wheel
in a way to make one dizzy. The en
gine itself is kept in a highly-polished
condition by the unremitting atten
tions of the engineer, who speaks of It
as "Old Alice,” and who has painted
this name in gilt letters on her var
nished frame In memory of a little
daughter who died.
There Is no direct means of commu
nication between the mill and the en
gine room, as the latter has only one
door, and that opens from the outside.
At the time of the occurrence I am
about to relate, this door had on it a
very complicated spring lock, and
every time the door slammed the lock
eaught and, according to the engineer,
“it took ten minutes’ work and the
key to get it open again.” The mill
runs continuously, being lighted at
night by a small electric-plant in the
building, and two big arc lamps hang
directly over the engine.
About ten o’clock on the night of the
22nd day of March, 1692, James Rus
sell (the night engineer) was sitting in
a chair at one side of the room read
ing an old newspaper, while his train
ed ear followed every stroke of the
engine, and Instantly detected the al
tered sound when an oiler stopped
feeding or a screw worked loose. “Old
Alice” ran as moothly and regularly
as a watch, and the engineer grew so
absorbed in his paper that he did not
at first look up when he heard the
door swing open and then shut with
a snap. Soon, however, the indescrib
able feeling that something alive is
near caused him to lift his head and
look about the room. There, just in
front of the door, blinking like an owl
in the glare of the electric lights, and
ROUND THEY RAN.
dazed by the fast running machinery,
stood a great, dingy browny-black
beast that looked to the excited en
gineer as big as a cow. The engineer
knew at once that his visitor was a
bear, and a grizzly at that, and was
correspondingly scared. The miners
had told him many tales of the cun
ning and ferocity of these animals, and
he knew that a few savage old fellows
still lingered in the mountains near
by.
This particular bear had just waked
up from his long winter's sleep, and
was hungry, or he would not have
been so bold. It Is probable that in
prowling about in search of food he
had come close to the mill, and had
smelt the oil in the engine-room, and,
finding the door open a-crack, had
pushed it open wider, and stepped in.
When he saw the lights and the en
gine. he had tried to back out. but had
run against the door, causing it to
slam and the springlock to catch.
Failing in his attempt to get out of
this dangerous trap, the bear turned
around in great wrath, determined to
take summary vengeance on the first
thing he couid get at. Unfortunately
the first object that caught his eye
was the engineer cowering against the
wall, and ne started for that individ
ual withe ut delay. As he lunged
across the floor he gave a tremendous
growl, and lifted his lips like a spite
ful dog, showing some terribly long
and sharp teeth. The engineer lost no
time in getting away from there, and
ran around the cylinder end of the en
gine like a college sprinter, while the
bear demolished the chair with one
6troke of his paw, and tore the paper
Into shreds. ^jter conscientiously
completing tbis Aferuction, the griz
zly looked around T6r more worlds to
conquer, and seeing the engineer,
thought he would do, and started for
him again. As the bear rushed around
the cylinder, the engineer ran toward
the fly-wheel, and as the bear raced
down that side of the engine, the man
jumped the belt and started up the
other side. The bear paused only an
Instant when he came to the flying
belt, then over he went, and chased the
man on around the cylinder end.
Round and round the engine they
ran, Jumping the belt, slipping and
sliding on the slick, oily floor, but get
ting faster and faster all the time.
There was nothing In the room that
di> would for a weapon, and Russell
could form no plan of escape, his great
est desire for the moment being to
keep the engine between him and the
grizzly. Even this became impossible,
as the bear gained on him, and the
distance between them gradually les
sened till they were running only a
few feet apart
The engineer shouted again and
again, but he had very little hope of
any one's hearing him because of the
great noise made by the machinery;
and even if they did hear, they could
not get in to help him, for the door
was locked, and he could not spare
time to fool with that lock Just then.
It was simply maddening to him to
think tha‘ there were twenty men in
the mill only a few feet away, all ready
““ wimug to neip nim ir ne couia
only let them know of his plight, and
yet to have that relentless brute chas
ing him around like a rat in a trap.
A few minutes of this wild running
exhausted the engineer, and he would
have stopped and let the grlzsly do his
worst had It not been for the dread
ful blood-curdling noise made by the
animal’s claws as he scuttled over the
slippery floor. The bear lunged and
plunged along like a great awkward
calf, growling prodigiously the while,
but he made astonishing speed for such
an unxkieldly-looking beast, and was
fast overhauling the man In spite of
his utmost efforts.
Once, as tha exhausted engineer
leaped over the belt, he thought that
to drop on it and be crushed by the fly
wheel would be an easier death than
to be torn to pieces by the bear, and
he almost decided to end the dread
ful chase the next time he came
around. But when he saw the belt
running so swiftly to certain death his
heart failed him, and he waited till
next time. Not so the bear. Almost
as the man's feet touched the floor af
ter the leap he heard an awful roar,
and the next instant a badly mashed
bear struck the celling and dropped
like a shot.
That timely event is easily explain
ed. As the man and bear ran round,
centrifugal force caused them to swing
cut farther and farther from their cen
ter of motion, the engine; and the
bear, being heavier than the man, flew
farther out till he came to a place On
the slanting belt where it was too £igh
for him to Jump. Then he put his
forepaws on it, intending to climb
over, and that was the last of him.
The belt, running at that high speed,
Jerked him In like a feather, and ran
him through between It and the fly
wheel. When the fly-wheel got done
with him, it threw him oft at the top,
as dead aB a herring and not much
thicker than one.
The engineer, however, firmly be
lieves that the spirit of his little
daughter influenced the engine to save
his life by killing the bear; and who
can say it Is only a fancy? The next
week he sent to Chicago and had the
silver plate made and put it on “Old
Alice,” and he declares that she Is
quite proud of it.

“Faite made me what I am,” growled

A deposit of most remarkable mud
discovered in Indiana, has of recent
years been attracting wide-spread at
tention. It is located at the Indiana
Mineral Springs, Warren county, and
has been formed by the action of the
water from the famous Magno-Lithla
springs. Through countless ages the
foliage of magnificent oaks on the hill
side has annually fallen into a basin,
and has been reduced by nature into
a pure black earth unmixed with roots,
stones or sand. The water from the
big spring for thousands of years has
been soaking this deposit and saturat
ing it with mineral salts, until now
there is a layer of medicated mud
abcut two acres in extent and from
ten to twenty feet in thickness.
The strange medicinal value of this
peculiar, black, porous substance was
accidentally discovered by an old sol
dier, Sam Stor>, who had brought
rheumatism home from the war and
suffered with it for years. He was at
tempting to dig a drainage ditch
through the mud deposit, and after in
dulging In this useless experiment far
a week or more, gave up the idea, bu:
meanwhile had been cured of his rheu
matism.
The fame of the mud began to spread
and afflicted congregated at the Springs
from everywhere. The method of us
ing the mud was at first very primi
tive, the patient merely sitting down
In the deposit where nature had laid
it. But since then improvements have
been made, a beautiful hotel erected,
and the mud bath developed into a
luxurious experience. The accompany
ing cut shows how it’s done.
After all, Nature ts the greatest of
all chemists, and Beems here to have
prepared in a gigantic receptacle an
enormous maBS of medicine for poultic
ing sore humanity. When all else had
failed. Nature’s treatment, the Magno
Mud cure, as it is now called, has in
hundreds of cases brought back health
and happiness.
