Climbing Up tb Mountain Side on
row Gauge Railroad Track A Flock of
Vulture An Extraordinary Sight A
Narrow Escape.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon we began the
ascent of the Ilex river mountains, and al
though our freight train consisted all told of
only six loads, two empties and the guards'
van, It waa necessary to take up another lo
comotive. The grade is ten inches t the
raiL and continuous from the base to the
tunnel on the summit of the mountain,
and requires four hour to climb. Puffl
puffl puiTI labored the tiny machines, mere
toys as compared to your mountain Moguls,
and slowly, very slowly, we crawled up the
mountain side over the ever curving, winding
track. The day had been terrifically hot.
The broiling, seething sun's rays beat down
witn an unrelenting force that caused even
our Kaffirs to seek shelter under the wagons.
the Boers to lay down their pipes and our
oxen to pant for air. The colonels bad each
soiled half a dozen handkerchiefs in wiping
the perspiration from their heated brows.
and taken to towels in their efforts to keep
their faces dry.
We were probably half way up the moun
tain side when we noticed that the sun no
longer shone on tho distant peaks, though wi
knew that it must be at least an hour high.
The specks in the sky had doubled in num
ber and were moving in a circle. The at
mosphere should have been much cooler at
the altitude we had now gained, but instead
it had grown hotter and more feti fling. Our
men through fear and heat were well nigh
exhausted; even tbe bold Americans were
restless and began to earnestly watch for
something to come down from the sky, over
tho mountains, up the valley or out of the
earth, they did not know when or from
where, but they were experiencing that ab
sorbing, terrorizing feeling that something
is going to happen.
A WHITE MIST CREEPING.

Now gentlemen, since the nominations
are made in men and platforms we will
meet you with the records of Harrison
and Morton against Cleveland and Thur-
man, and the American platform against
the British drag-net.
It is a clean ana able ticket and a
strong and patriotic platform which the
republican party present to the suffrages
of the people of this country. When
November comes the voters will walk up
to the ballot box and endorse the plat
from and elect the ticket. Lincoln Jour.

A Warning.
The modes of death's approach are va
rious, and statistics show conclusively
that more persons die from disease of the
nroat and lungs tnaa any other, it is
probable that everyone, without excep
tion, receives vast numbers of Tubercle
Germs into the system and where these
germs fall upon suitable soil they start
into life and develop, at first slowly and
is shown by a slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue theii
ravages they extend to the lungs produc
ing Consumption and to the head, caus
ing Catarrh. Now all this is dangerous
and if allowed td continue will in tim
cause death. At the onset yon must act
with promptness; allowing a cold to go
without attention is dangerous and max
loose yon your life. As soon as you feel
that something is wrong with your throat.
I tings or nostrils, obtain a bottle of Bos
Khee's German Syrup. It will give you
immediate relief.
sensations had passed when I noticed a white
mist creeping around the rugged side of tbe
king peak of the range to our left Steadily
on it crept, down gulches, over chasms and
around huge bowlders, until the whole
mountain was enveloped in a thick mist, save
the extreme summit, that looked like drift
ing snow. On, on came the rolling, soft,
treacherous, pure white, beautiful mist. One
peak disappeared, then annother, and still
another was annihilated wiped out of exist
ence, so far as we were concerned. A breeze
sprang up, bringing cooler air and relieving
our sufferings a little, and in a moment the
thick, slimy, sultry cloud was upon us. We
now knew the storm was at hand and that
tho flock of asvogels knew it was coming.
One of them had seen the train and the oxen
on it, and no doubt thought, as asyogels
think, that some of tho animals would be
killed by the terrific mountain storm, and so,
signaling to it companions, they hovered
over us, waiting for the storm to pasa.
It had now grown quite dark. To reach
the tunnel at the top of the grade before the
storm could catch us was the great desire of
all aboard the train. We hod only four
miles to travel to reach it Once there we
could run near the further end, come to a
stop and wait till tbe storm was over, and
enjoy the protection of 100 or ZC0 fe?p of
earth and stone above us. The engineers
and firemen of our little locomotive realized
the importance of gaining this place of
safety and exerted their utmost efforts to
accomplish that end. Cbool cbool cbool
puffed the engines, and 6lowy, very slowly
we crawled up. Tbe breeze stiffened into a
wind; the wind to a gale; the gale into a
hurricane. The mist had rolled down the
mountain side, up, over and beyond the
eastern side of the range. Now came tbe
"nigger heads," with their eyes, mouths and
ears shooting out fiery flashes of vivid light
ning, struggling with each other for tbe lead
in guiding tbe storm olouda that followed
behind, battling one another with thai? tf?
zag, forked tongues, while canyons and
mountain sides echoed and re-echoed the
boom and roar of heaven's artillery. Here,
there, everywhere came flash after flash in
quick succession, each flash an awful bolt
with a report that began like the crack of a
thousand rifles and ended like tbe voices of a
thousand cannon.
A EXTRAORDEfASr SIGHT.
Full well wa fcpew that no shower, but a
deluge of rain, would JoUow these black,
ragged clouds that shot out in adVcgos of the
rain clouds, so aptly named "nigger heads,"
on account of their resemblance to a negro's
woolly head. They are highly charged with
electricity, and present to (he unsheltered
traveler a thrilling realization of bis perilous
position. Never before had I seen more than
one "nigger head" at a time; here were three,
and each extraordinarily charged with elec
tricity. Three times 1 saw a flash, a blazing
ball, which, in leas time than I can tell it,
burst, throwing out tails of Gp in every
direction, somewhat resembling a great sky
rocket The report that followed was truly
terrible to hear and awful to feel, for it
shook the old mountains to their very center.
On, on came the storo, roaring, shrieking.
howling, tearing its way through the moim-
tains, uprooting trees and dislodging tons of
heavy rocks that were hurled down the
gulches, crushing everything before them
and pounding the ground until the whole
earth seemed quivering and trembling
through fear.
It is quite impossible to reach the tunnel.
for the torrent is rushing down upon us, and
is, in fact, pouring down with unrelenting
fury. What if a tree or bowlder should be
thrown across the track. Blower, still slower
we climb up the grade are we moving? We
can feel no motion nor hear tbe Joco motive
struggling on. Good heavens I we are moving
Dacicwara. I tie rain nas wet tbe tract, a
curve has brought us facing the wind, and
we are at the mercy of fata The wheels
slide on the track like the runners of a sleigh
on the snow. Tbe engineers liave lost con
trol of their engines, and faster and faster
backward we go. Can you picture a position
more perilous than ours! Would we reach
the bottom safely! Would we plunge over a
precipice . down into a canyon where t,u9
trestle work has been washed awayf Would
any of us be left to tell the tale of the acci
dent! A thousand such thoughts rushed
through my mind as we slid foster and faster
down, down the track we had labored so
bard to climb. The labor of hours was de
stroyed in a few minutes. We reached the
bottom of the grade without other damage
than the shaking of the locomotives to badly
as to unfit them for further use until re
paired. We remained at the bottom of the
grade all the next day, until two other loco
motives arrived with which to continue our
journey. Cape Colony Cor. San Francisco

TJfE MOBMOS QUESTIONS
The political powt-r of tho Mormon church in
tne leriiiunes hs exerciieu n (.ni iait is a
meiiauce to iree institutions too dangerous to
oe long suiiereo. liiererore we p edge the re
publican party to appropriate legislation,
asserting the sovereignty of the nation in all
the territories wlieie the same is questioned,
and in furtherance of that end to place
upon the statute book legislation stringent
cuiKinrj i uivorce pomicai irom ecclesiastical
the at teno.au t
and Pacific states as well as for the payment
of the maturing public debt. This policy will
give employment to our labor, activity to our
various Industries, increased security to our
country, promote trsde, open new and direct
markets for our products and cheap, n the cost
of transportation. We affirm this to be far
better for our country than the democratic
policy of loaning the government's money
without Interest to "pet banks."
FOREIGN RELATIONS.
The conduct of foreign affairs by the present
administration has beeu distinguished by inef
ficiency aDd cowardice. Having withdrawn
from tbe senate all pending treaties effected
by republican administrators for the removal
of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our
coinmeice and for Its extension into a better
market. H has neither affected nor proposed
any others in their stead, professing adher
ence to tbe Monroe doctrlre. It has seen with
Idle complacency the extension of foreign In
fluence in Central America and of foreign t rade
everywhere among our neighbors. It has re
fused to charter, sand ion or encourage any
American organiyt ion for constructing the
Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal importance to
tbe maintenance or the Monroe doctrine and
of our national influence in Central and South
America, and necessary fo- tho development
of trude with our Pacific territory, with South
America, and with the further coasts of the
Pacific Ocean.
FISHERIES QUESTION.
We arraign the present democratic adminis
tration for Its weak and unpatriotic treatment
of the fisheries question, and its pusillanimous
surirnderorall privileges to which our fishery
vessels are entli led in Canadian ports under
the treaty of ISIS, the reciprocate marin
tine legislation of 1K.!0 and comity of nations,
aud which Caaadian fishing vessels receive in
the ports of the United States. We con-iemn
the pt.licy of the present administration and
the democratic majority in congress towards
our lKheiies as unfriendly and conspicuously
unpatriotic and as tending to destroy a valuable
national industry and an iudispeiisible resource
of defense against fi reign enemy.
Tlie name of American applies alike to all
cilicns of the rep.iblle. and imposes upon men
alike ihe same obligation of obedience to the
laws. At the same timeePizeiiship is and must
be the panoply and safeguard of him who weais

inererore repeit' our declination of 18s4.towit :
