"Now I will venture to Hay that not more than
n dozen people In this city re.me.mber an acci

of more than ordinary Interest to me and others
that I might mention , for In It wo nearly lost

every moment going faster until we attained a
rpeud of nearly sixty miles tin hour , we were
nearlng a station aliout twenty-seven miles
went of here. I was standing In the gangway ,
when suddenly I felt a shook and then 1 felt my
self Hying through the air , struck something
with terrible force and WHS unconscious. The
engine , I afterward learned , had plunged Into a
mlsplkce.fl swlteh nnd plowed Its way through
three iMix ears before It was brought ton stand

My head was cut frightfully and my left lea was

scars running nearly the whole length of the

"Ven. Iliad , " replied the engineer , "but as I
have but a moment or time 1 must ask you to
flxrme mo now , but If you will call on Mrs. I.und-
beck , at liri Douglas htrect , she will tell you of
a similar one. "
The writer called on Mrs l.undbock at the
number given and found a busy , but genl.il and
pleasant lady who gave him the following par
ticulars of her narrow escape.

"You see , " "said Mrs. I.undbeck , " for a long
time I had been troubled with an atlVi-tlon ot
the head and throat , mv he.nl was stopped up
the major part ot the time , nose stopped up'and
running , my eyes would water ; I had a pain
over the eyes and olten In tlio cars. I had to
kawk and spit , hud a bad rough , would Dslcli
wind aconsldeiahlo and my stomach was out
of order , my breathing was
I.AUOiir.D AND Dltl'ICtJljT
and altogether 1 felt very miserable nit the
time , and tomakn matters worse I couldsvarco-
ly sleep , would wake up with Uts and Htarts and
on gettlngup la the morning would feel ax tired
as 1 did ongoing to bud the piovlous night. "
"I had lead ot the success of lr C. M. Jordan.
In Just such i ast"i as mint ) mid l determined to
call ( in him and 1 am exceedingly glad 1 did , lie
examined and told me that I had liypertrophlc
eatiirrh of the noio and throat also that I had
polypus tumors In my nose. 1 started treat
ment at once and today I uiiicur-d. Hercmoved
the polypus and treated my catairh In such n
imuiner that In two months ! was entirely cured.
Whatmoiscan I say ? I would advise any sutler-
cr not to trllle with patent medicines or a physi
cian who knows nothing about treating catarrn
but to rail on Dr. Jordan nt : I10 and all Hamgo
lllock.vrho canand will cure it. Mrs. I.undbeck

flow Catarrh IB Produced.
Although taking cold Is one of the common
est and most familiar of phenomena , yet the
dangers of its neglect In treating and Us ulti
mate result are not appreciated. The rule Is to
let It wear Itself out or seemingly to. In u Very
large majority of cases , catching cold develops
In an aitacc ot acute Intlamatlon of homo portion
tion of the upper air passages , as being a poln !
of least resistance , and , further.as these attack ?
recur with Increased frequency and gravity , we
find the morbid process localizes Itself further
down and nearer to the vital centers , as regards
the o.called liability to take cold , It should bo
understood that this Is due to an exUtlug
chronic catkrrlml lullammatlon ot perhaps so
mild a type as to give rise to but very trivial
symptoms , or even passed unnoticed ; but still
an existing catavrh. the result probably of n
neglected cold and the renewed attacks to which
the Individual becomes go liable , consists In the
lighting up of the old trouble.
At each fresh attack subsides , the chronic
trouble makes ltt > elf known by more decided
symptoms , fresh colds occur with greater fre
quency and there Is finally established a chronic
caturrn ot thn nose and throat with Its many
annoyances ot stopped up none , lump of mucus
in the throat , hawking and spitting , pain ovei
eyes and bridge of nose , ringing or buzzing in
ears , hacking cough , later on bad odor scabs ,
unusual dryness of nose and throat , and Dually
graver trouble lower down In the air passages ,
It Is very much to be deprecated that as a rule
nn ordinary cold Is allowed to take Its own
course without treatment. It a part has oncu
become lullamed It Is left In u weakened condi
tion which Invites renewed attacks from n very
alight cause.
The country Is Hooded with patent medicines
for the cure ot catarrh , which art ) concocted
and raado attractive for the express purpose of
making money. It is utterly impossible to pre
pare a single remedy to meet the different
nnasps of catarrh. A remedy for one stage may
be injurious to another. It Is Just such prepara-
rations , with their "guarantee euro'1 label ou ,
that have weakened the confidence of the great
majority of MUTururs of this loathsome trouble ,
of havlngthelr disease skillfully treated by a
physician who has made a study of the disease
In its everv condition , has devised remedies ,
methods of applying them and w 1th the large
experience of having treated thousands of eases
before your case comes before him. Thoold le
gend that " 1'rocrastlnatio'i is the Thlof of
' Tliun" can be no better oxemplllled than In a
case of neglected catarrh.

Indian flirhtur , " .luck Hob , " and in
formed him that the readers of the Kx-
ainlnervould bo tleaied ) $ to hear ol
boino ot Ids adventures.
"Wnl. mister , " ' ho said , putting viperously -
orously at a short black pipe , "I hcv
had some tol'ablo tonsil times , and no
mistime. The wust ou 'em vns in ' 08 ,
when tlie Sioux was on the warpath. I
was to Fort Caspar , Wyoming , in the
arly part er the summer , and Com
mander Frolinghysen engaged mo tor
carry dispatches from thartor Fort Phil
Kearney an' hack. It was allowed tor
ho mighty rosky job , fur I led Cloud's
war parties was jest a turnin'thorsolvcs
loose , and hod killed no under dispntch-
carriers and cow-punchers thct spring ;
but ho 'creed to pay mo i-o lib'ral ef I
made out ter do it that I told him lin'ly
thct I was his huckleberry ; I'd make a
try fur it , anyhow. I hod my ph-k or
the bosses at the fort , an' took a rattler
e/ line a piece ov lie slc.sh ! c/ ever
drawd breath. Knowd moron a man !
It was a bright morniu' when I tuk
ouvo on "em at the fort re ckon they
didn't much Vpect tor ever see mo agin
an' .sot out on my trip. Jest back ov
my sadtllo I packed a little chuck an' a
can tan ov water , rolled up in a Navajo
blanket ; an' I kerned a Springfield
rillo an' a six-shooter.
" ' miles afore
"I made 'bout llfty-flvc
sunhot , 'thout eoin' no Injun 'sign , ' an'
made camp at Alkali springs , in a little
arroyo or gully what folks call a coaloo
in this part ov the country. Wai , I
hotln t moro'n tuk oil my saddle an'
staked out my boss , when two Injuns ,
all paint and feathers , what bed boon
hid in the tall crass on the other side
cv the arroyo. popped up their heads an'
begin cuttin * lee u on me. It kinder
rattled me. 1 tell ye , it was so suddint ;
but I throwd iny&oly down bohln' my
saddle , brung my gun to bar on 'em ,
and lot 'om ht'v it. They dropped out
cv sight quickor'n h 1 ever scorched
a feather an' crawled away , for I could
see the grass ? a movin' HUe snakes was
going through it. I waited 'bout half a
minute to see if they showed up agin ,
then saddled up an' lit out for Cra/y
Woman's Fork. "Hout two hours' ridin' '
brjngcd mo ter the foot or the hill , jest
this side of it. an' thnr in course it was
plumb dark I run right on tor a big
Injun camp 'bout seventy-live lodges
of 'em , I reckon not moro'n fiOO yards
from me. Their dogs began to hark ,
an'I turned an'rid back to the toper
hill ter make a try at roundin' the
blulT. A few hundred yards from thar ,
in the creek bottom , some Injuns what
hod run out from the camp afoot begin
yollin' an" flrin' clus to me , and I give
my boss the cuist an' kep' along elus ter
the bluff , jist a sailin' . some er the var
mints follerin' mo live miles or more I
shud say. 1 kcp' on ten or twelve milo
more , 1 reckon , afore stoppin' nmkiir
moro'n eighty mile I'd rid senco leav-
in' the fort then staked my boss 'thout
takin' olT the saddle ; stretched out on
the bar groun' an' slop' till daylight.
The sun was jc.st a comin' up when I setout
out ngin , eatin' my chuck bread and
dried venison cI rid along. Nothin'
wuth spoakin' of happened that day.an.
'bout 10 o'clock in the cvonin , I rid
inter Fort Reno. The people at the
fort bed a idee thar was _ sevo'ral or Hcd
Cloud's war parties 'twi.xt than an' Phil
Kearney , an' the commander would not
let me start on agin till 4 o'clock the
nex' day. I knpwcd my scalp rested in
my boss boin' in good trim , an' 'bout
fifteen milo from Reno , comiu' ter u line
patch o' bullalo grass , clus to er deep
ravine , I made camp. I bcdn't been
thar but a few minutes when' six In
juns a Ute huntin' party , I reckon
they was sid up out or the ravine , an' '
begun makin'signs that they was friend
ly. It was terrible lucky for mo tho.v
was , fur they wasn't moro'n fifty
yards away when I just ketchcd sight o'n
'em , an' if they'd been hostile I'd bed
hard work gottin'clear of 'cm. I let'em
como up , an' thoucrh I could not under-
stan' jest what they said , I made out
that I'd bettor look sharp after my seal ) ;
oz thar was lots or bad Injuns 'bout. I
felt tol'ablo sartin in my own mind thcj
was right , an' in a few minutes after
they left , saddled up an' ken' on. I rid
kinder mod'rato till daylight , an' then
made camp , my boss s'howin' signs ct
being tuckered. 1 fur myself , I was
plumb wore out , an' , staking my boss , 1
laid down on the open por-airie I dur-
sent camp near water an' was nsleoj
Icss'n no time. The sun was pootj
high 'bout 10 o'clock , I reckon when
I roused an' saddled up. 'Long 'boul
noon I hod tor climb a high butte it
ud hov tuk mo a consid'nblo out cr mj
way tor go roun' it and jest oz I come
tor the top , I como insight er six Injuns
'bout a milo away , chasin' a herd cr
bulTalor bulls. They latched sight 01
mo tor onct , an' sop'ratin' , three on 'ctr
wont 'round the bluff an' three como
straight fur mo. I sent my hosb down
the steep hill cz lively ox. I durst it war
all covered with boulder an' loose
rocks an'reached the bottom all right-
then pushed on hopin' ez how I'd give
'cm the slip , but less'n a milo from
thur jest eI was comin' ter a little
blurt covered with scrub pine the three
Injuns what bed gone roun' the blufl
como right out in front er mo. 1
could'nt turn back an' motioned fur 'om
ter keep otf , but they made a break fur
mo witli their guns skinned ! When
was within 'bout fifty feet cr mo , I let
'em hov it , twict. with my six shooter ,
wingin' one on 'em , I think , ancheckin
'em up a little. Then I give my boss
the bpurs I meant it , you bet yor sweol
life ! an' went by 'cmon the dead jump
ono on 'em jest missin' my ho-s' forf.-
shoulder with a Innce , o1 Went by. II
was a narrow squeal , you hoar me the
narrowest I over lied. I was not long
in leavin' of 'om behind fact , I do not
think they tried tor follcr me. I made
hittle Piney creek 'bout ( i o'clock in the
ovcnin' , an'stayed thar till darkter gil
rested ; then started fur the Fortwantin
in course , tor reach thar arter dark
Hod rode oil praps half a milo , when n
big party or Injuns como swoopin'down
on mo , a most afore I knowd it. Turnitv
my boss I rid back ter the creek jest ti
kitin' , crossed Stand rid up on tor a blull
'bout two miles above it. Frum thar ,
there boin1 a young moon. I could see
the Injuns movin' 'bout near the crossiir
plainly to fault. Arter a while they
crossed the creek back again an' rode
straight oil towards the fort. I waited
thar a few minutes an' then kop' on ,
keepin'my eyes skinned ez sharp ez I
knowd how. 'Bout midnight I como tor
Uig Piney crcok , on'y live miles from
Phil Kearney , but couldn't lind the
orossin' , both bides of it boin' covered
thick with willows , an' so made up my
mind tor strike fur the reg'lar crossin1
down the creek. 1 went down to it , an1
was jcstagoin' tor cross , when I heord
dogsabarkin' and Injuns ycllin' , on the
yon sldo , an' , turnin' roun' , I rid
straight up inter the mountains , follow-
in1 the course of the creek. The Injuns ,
'thought doubt , hoerd mo comin'down
to the crook , an followed mo by thor
soun' or my boss' feet like enough" it was
the same party I BOO afore , twin' tor
head mo olT from the fort ) , and 'jest oz I
crossed the crock , at the old wood road ,
two or three guns flashed clus to moan' '
the bullets come zip ! zip ! roun' my ears.
Theinjuns waft in the open , boyon' n
lot cr jagged rocks in the creek bottom ,
an' the way I lit ofl'n .my boss , an' scur

I made one or two on 'em sick , I'm tel

Current Literature : Talking the
other day with a bookseller , on the sub
ject of the popularity of the high-class
authors , it was learned that Marion
Crawford has the largest sales , and is
bought almost exclusively by cultivated
people. Although his books are a dollar
lar and ti half a volume , the demand for
them is just as great. Ho has sold about
a half million copies , all told. But ft !
for "Tho Immortals1' was a little more
than people could stand , and that book
has languished in consequence. Henry
James has shrunk to one-third of hit
former popularity , and Howolls has
fallen olT perceptibly since the publica
tion of that dreary book , "The Minis-
tor's charge. " Mrs. Burnett sells bet
tor than any other of the women writers
Craddock next. Anna Katherinc
Green sells fairly. "She , " "Callcel
Back , " and "Tho Bread Winners , " arc
ar dead as though they had never boon.
Haggard is falling off in popularity
very rapidly. There is little domain !
for "Mr. Meesous Will. ' ' "The
Lamplighter" and "Uncle Tom'
Cabin , " "St. Klmo" and "The
Wide , Wide World" still sell. They will
probably last as long as human nature.
