The party at the cent of which 1 am writing con sisted oftho empress and a large num ber of Austrian and foreign ge ntlemen riders, who seemed to have gathered to gether from all parts of Europe. Most of them were known as prominent horsemen. This was notsurnrisinL' eon- sidel ing that the empress would never take the field in company of poor riders, On this occasion the empress rode a very spirited young horse, which she had obtained in Lancashire when on a visit to England, and to the training of which she had personally attended for nearly a year. Everything went well after the start until we crossed a high way leading to a small Hungarian country town a short distance off. Pass ing a white painted milestone the em press' horse shied, and suddenly bo coming uncontrollable it dashed down the road in the direction of the town. From appearance it was evident that the animal had succeeded in taking the bit between his teeth and that no earth ly power could stop it on its mad run away. Although we all followed the empress, none of us seemed to gain upon her.' Flying we passed through tho little town, much to the amazement and the terror of the few people in the streets. A short distance beyond tho town was a shipping canal, and to our horror we saw that the drawbridge spanning the canal was open so as to permit the pas sage of Bomo boat. In a moment we realized that the empress was running straight into the jaws of certain death. Faster ami faster we went on in pur suit, but faster and faster ulso seemed tho empress' horse to fly. Now it had reached the open bridge. Would it stop? Before wo had time to think we saw the animal dash up the incline of tho open bridge like a Hash of lightning. ror moment we could not but close our eyes and a shudder convulsed every man in the cavalcade. It was a terrible, moment a moment during which fear and horror alternately kept us merci lessly in their pangs. When we opened our eyes again, still riding as fast as our horses could go, the fair rider and her runaway had disappeared. We had no doubt that the inevitable had happened and that Elizabeth of Austria was drowned in the slow and turbid waters of tho canal. Tho idea was a terrible one. My per. is too weak to describe tho confusion among us and the agony of suspense that followed and seemed" to make each rider quiver in his saddle. Almost un consciously we had stopped our horses just before reaching the incline to the open uraw. As a matter of fact our ex citement was so great that wo did not even notice that one of our number Count Szepany, if I remember well, was also missing. All our faculties natural ly had followed the empress only. There we were, halting before that terrible bridgp like a pack of cowards with nobody among us plucky enough to ride into death with an empress. A few seconds later tho inclinesof the bri.lgo were lowered again, but nobody f our company seemed to even attempt to pass it. 1 From the pangs of fear and horror we had passed into those of amazement. several hundred van Is be von, I f l. l,..i.t..., we beheld riding toward usaladvon a toaming steed. It was the empress, and j 11 sil1" "lily gallant man of the crowd, Count Ssci.any. Her majesty jhrmly sat her horse, and appeared .m I c""1 ''""1 collected us if nothing had ban pencil. ' 1 Smilingly did she make fan of us and our anxiety. IF.-r tin,, raillery was j!lf,t as iniicn just, !,,, i as it was iunlbuMvo when she saw tile oiliablo li-oo-,. ill her exalted presence. Tho empress- h,,iv was very lame, and closer examination showed' that ii had dislocated its l ieht. hind f,.ll....l, I." jumping the open draw between the j wings of the bridge the hind feet of the i empress' hor.-e had caught one of the iron rails at tho edge and torn off on,. ,,( I its hind shoes. The most extraordinary feature of the accident was how tho horse ever could lmv(, jr,,,,,. down the mehn,. without breaking its own and tho riders neck. The only explanation lor this small miracle, however, might bo found in the fact that the empress never lost. In r presence of mind for a minute when on horseback, and that, though the anime.l was uncontrollable,' sho must have sat it to perfection. With regard to Count Szepany, he was unable to give any account of his escape. More over, he did not even remember whether his horse made the jump before or after tho empress'. He simply said that dur ing the jump lie closed his eyes for a 1 second, and that' he then extx-rieuced & A Si I he ii, .1 , J, ,,.,, vptiau scythe, dug up on the 'Mil- Nile in ivio, is exhibited the aniiiiuiti-s in the i.i-i, .o , i museum -f Flinders IV trio.

But in saying that bathing suits will be worn shorter. 1 have reference only to the l-wer half. Last year they cov ered many an ungainly knee. This year they can be worn cut to just above the knee or just' below, and tho shape of a man's limbs will have much to do with his choice. As a man is never an ex cellent judge of his own physhpie, it might be well to ask a friend for advice.' Bathing sails will be worn as tightns ever. This is another bit of agreeublo information for the host of well shaped men who enjoy the two or three months in the year during which they can dis port themselves on the sands of Manhat tan Beadi, Long Branch, Newport and Atlantic City. But society permits this show of shape, in fact enjoys it, and so the man of fashion has simply to bow obeisance and pose. When you buy your bathing outfit this year be sure and do it properly. Buy them in one piece of worsted or silk, and if you are stout get vertical stripes, and if you are thin follow the Sing Sing design. That is very much in stylo this year. Boston Herald. SEE' Treatment of the Car' t'oiooimptlve Son. The Grand Duke George, the czar's second son, who ever since his enforced return through illness from his Indian tour has lieen under medical treatment lor pulmonary disease, has been passing the winter at Abbas-Tuinan in the Cau casus. A private letter from that plnco states that his imperial highness is under going a most remarkable course of treat ment. The walls in his apartments are bare and unpapored, the furniture is of plain wood or cane without upholstering or stuff covering of any kind, and his bed consists only of the thinnest of mat tresses. Throughout tho winter only a very moderate lire lias been kept up, wane me windows of the grand duke, rooms have been continuously onen. His attendants have snft'erod dread fully from tho cold, but his medical ad visers hold that this low temperature is ery Deiieiicial to their imperial patient, as it tends to destroy tho bacillus and prevent the formation of tubercle.
