A TERRIBLE SIGHT ,
H. C. Doilae tit Detroit Free Vrt * .
I hud fllnahod my course In n inctllcnl
college and was travelling ulotio lo
Purls to complete my surgical oducntlon
In that city's famous hospitals before
practising In my ntxtlvo hind.
On the trip over I listened to n Rood
deal of talk about many mysterious dis
appearances of strangers which had
latoty taken place In the French capital.
Prom all that was then known , the
victims were supposed to have been
murdered and robbed and burled In the
collars of the houses In which they had
been hired , access boliiR made to their
sleeping rooms by moans of a trap in
the floor under their beds communica
ting with the collar through n dark
shaft containing a ladder built on one
sido.
sido.Buta
Buta Toxpectod to find those and
oven moro startling things of daily oc
currence in the pay city , they made
little Impression on the mind of a medi
cal student-who felt that his charmed
profession was proof against the dangers
which besot ordinary people.
I had taken the train for Paris , where
on Its arrival , I was to meet the doctor
under whom I was to study , and go with
him to spend my lirst week nt his homo.
But an accident on the road delayed the
cars , BO that when I arrived it was long
past midnight and raining furiously ,
and , of course , no one was there to wel
come and lake charge of mo.
While I stood on the station platform
anxiously looking and undecided wh at
to do or where to go , up stopped a black-
whiskered cab driver and olfornd to take
mo to a hotel.
I know enough of his language to
understand the follow , and toll him to
do so , and then , grabbing my valise , ho
led mo to his cab and shut the door after
I had thankfully seated myself within.
At first 1 was too tired to think much ,
but , by and by , I noticed that it seemed
a long ride anil that wo wore going
through a dark and badly paved portion
of the city and driving rapidly. Won
dering at it , I knocked on the window
behind the drive11 , who apparently not
hearing mo , paid no attention.
At ast when I was getting angry and
a trillo uneasy , too , and preparing to
make myself hoard wo stopped and the
cabman opening the door , informed mo
that our destination was reached and
helped mo out.
It had ceased raining , and big black
clouds wore Hying across the sky , driven
by the rising" wind , aid obscuring the
half moon. As near as I could see wo
were in the outskirts of the city in a
lonely spot before a dark house standing
by itself fronting on the street , with
high brick walls on either sido.
While I stood there hesitating and
not liking the looks of things the driver
took my bag and led the way to the h.ill
door , assuring mo that the place , kept
by a friend of his , would give mo
bettor accommodations and charge less
than a regular hotel.
In answer to his knock , which I
thought peculiar , a head stuck out of
the window over us and after a moment
the door was unbolted , and I , with some
misgivings , stopped within to a long
hall , dismally lighted by the candle of
the tavern keeper who had so carefully
allowed us to enter.
Then I paid my cabby , foolishly show
ing a roll of money in doing it , at which
I imagined the pair exchanged meaning
glances , and cabby bowing with a "bon
soir , Monsieur , jo vous roinorcio , " wont
out and I heard him drive away.
Refusing . any refreshments , and
nearly dead for sleep I followed my evil
looking host upstairs and was shown
into a back bed chamber , meanwhile
tolling him in answer to his questions
moro about myself than , perhaps I
should have done after seeing him bolt
and lock the street door and nut the key
in his pocket instead of leaving it in its
place.
Setting the candle on the bureau and
wishing mo a good night's rest ho with
drew and loft mo alone to ponder ever
my strange situation. Tired though I
was I felt unable to sleep , so I sat on a
chair and surveyed my surroundings ,
In the corner was a largo , old-
fashioned bed , with high posts. I
noticed a dimity curtain hung along its
side and foot to the floor , hiding what
ever was under it. I thought it was
rather pretty and in keeping with the
quaintness of the old style of French
bedsteads.
Several chairs , n washstand , bureau
and table completed the furniture of the
room. The lloor had an unusually thick
carpet and so soft that it emitted not the
faintest sounds to the tread. This , too ,
seemed very pleasant There was a
closet , empty when I examined it , and
lined with extra sized clothes hooks
just the thing , I thought for women's
dresses.
Then I carao to the windows. There
were two , both at the back. 1 wont to
one , pushed the sash up and tried to
gaze out into the darkness.
A savage and deep growl and the
clanking of a heavy chain -told mo of
the florco brtito below and not caring to
start him barking , /withdrew and
seated myself preparatory to undress
ing for my neodou rest.
But , try as I might , I couldn't over
come the feeling that I was in peril of
some kind. The solitude and the quietness -
ness of tjho houiso seemed straugo ; the
man , in suite of their bows and
smiles nnd offo-ts to bo friendly , had
evil looks that impressed mo unfavor
ably. Pocketing the key after locking
the frontdoor I did not like. Yet , after
all , being unused to foreign wayj , my
nameless suspicions would likely in the
morning bo proven groundless.
Still an Intuitive BOIIPO of danger op
pressed mo and , do what I could , it
wouldn't shako off and lot mo prepare
for sloop.
Then , for the first time. I noticed my
light was only an inch bit of candle and
that In a few minutes I would be in total
darkness.
Suddenly I remembered the ship tales
of murder and disappearance of stran
gers' in just my situation. Was a trap
from the collar under that bod1 ;
I tried to ridicule the idea , but the
inure 1 tried the moro frightuned I bo-
came. Certainly there was no harm to
look , and I laughfd at myself when ,
candle in hand , I lifted the bud's drapery
and commenced to crawl under to ex
amine. Pushing along the light , I fol
lowed on hands and knees.
In the far corner no yes ! There
was a square hole in the iloor !
I don't know how I drew myself to the
edge and looked in , but I did , and the
flickering candle showed the rungs of
some sort of a ladder reaching down In
the blackness below , from where I Im
agined the awful smell of the collar-
graveyard jtroso.
Alujoal powerless with terror I man
aged to make my way back in the room ,
replaced the drapery , and after recover
ing my wits endeavored to think of some
means of escaping the horrible fate ,
which , no doubt , had befallen others in
my fearful situation.
First I thought of the windows , but
oven if I got by the llorco dog below
placed there purposely to give the alarm
and hold mo , how was I to mount the
wall of the yard , which I didn't know ,
before being caught and killed in cold
blood when they found I had discovered
tholr awful secret. If I had boon nl the
front of the honso I might have
shrieked for help , nnd probably not pot
any. Whore I was It seemed worse than
useless. And certain to bring the mur
derers on mo at once. Hushing down
and out of the front door was Impossible ,
for the key was gone from the look to
prevent It , Could I roach the roof and
clamber down a watcr-nlpo or In some
way gain the street. That seamed my
only chance. I had soon llromon at a
drill scale house fronts by Blonder poles
having cross sticks for the feet and
hooks at the top to catch on the win
dow-sills. 1 had soon them start from
the sidewalk and with apparent ease
mount to the roof.
But where was my scaling ladder to
come from ? I hud forced myself to be
calm and was thinking quickly. Could
I improvise one from what was in the
room and did I have time to innKu it ?
1 looked at my watch. It was half after
1 o'clock. The camllo would light mo a
While yet nnd bv making a sound now
and then I might stay the attack , for
the villains would prefer to kill mo
asleep and wait. I had no pistol , and
In the dark one would not do much
good. My only weapon was a big and
handy knife , containing besides the
usual blades a scissors , awl , gimlet ,
screwdriver , etc.
Then I looked about the room for stulT
to construct my scaling ladder. Bed
slats , if there were any , might answer
to begin on.
Yes , luckily , I found them and noise
lessly took throe from under the mat
tress , fixing it so they would not bo
missed when the follows came up. Now ,
how to fasten thorn together. There
were cords on the window shades and
wires on four pictures and a glass. I got
thorn oil' in a jiffy. Cross pieces to climb
nn'f Chair rungs , of course , and my
sharp blade soon furnished them.
Hooks for llio ladder's top ? I looked In
the closet there they were and screws
also to fasten them and the chair rungs
on. My knife's screw-driver blade
quickly brought a lot down.
Then I turned carpenter and wont to
work for my life.
I had securely bound the slats to
gether when the sound of whispering
stopped mo. Evidently the whisperers
were preparing to mount the collar trap ,
supposing I was in bed , asleep.
I made out to cough , very feebly ,
though , for 1 was well nieh terror
stricken , and to rattle some of the furni
ture about. Tills they must have hoard ,
for all was still again.
I waited a moment and then screwed
the hooks upside down lit the top of my
scaling bed-slat ladder. They were
small enough for the purpose required ,
but as my life was hanging on a frailer
thread than they promised to bo they
had to do.
Next , working as fast as possible , for
my light was nearly burned out , I fast
ened on the chair rung cross-pieces with
screws , two above and two below , so the
heads hold the rungs secure and im
movable.
And the candle expired just as my last
screw went in. My ladder was plenty
strong enough except the five hooks at
the top , which , not being pointed
sharply , might slip from their slender
hold on' "tho roof's gutter edge while I
hung suspended and the thought made
mo shiver. Stillas death suomed prefer
able to being brained or stabbed in my
sleep , I nerved myself for the undertak
ing.
Again I made some noise in the room ,
hoping to gain a few moro precious min
utes and raising the window sash looked
out in the darkness. The rain had
ceased and the wind was driving great ,
black clouds across the sky and rattling
and banging shutters and trees so that
oven the dog below failed to hoar mo.
Looking down , a glare of light from the
window beneath mo shuwod where the
murderers waited patiently or impa
tiently until I slept
Looking up I could see the gutter's
outline against the Hying clouds.
Apparently the house had a mansard
roof and hero was a now danger if I
should bo soon from the attic dormer
windows. But they showed no light and
I had to risk It
Cautiously I lifted out my ladder and
thank heavens , found the hooks gripped
and hold onto the gutter's odyo. Then
lowering the ton sash I fastened one of
the picture wire cords from midway on
the ladder to and around the high bed
post near the window , drew it tight and
carried the end out and up as far as I
could roach , fixing it on a rung so I
could slip it off after gaining the roof
and leave no trace of how I escaped behind -
hind for the devils to follow.
Then , removing my shoos and tying
them ever my shoulder , I stopped out
side on the window sill , found the ladder
was linn in place and prepared to
mount it.
Carefully I placed a foot on the lowest
rung and , gripping with my toes , for the
ladder inclined inward , I swung loose
from the house and began my perilous
ascent , trembling lost my weight or the
slightest sway would break or loosen the
hooks and drop mo into the open mouth
of the animal below , just commencing to
growl.
Pulling myself up was moro dilllcult
than I had expected , and when I got
under the edge of the overhanging roqf
I thought I never could surmount It.
The firemen's Judders hung straight
up and down , but mine , of necessity ,
sloped inward , leaving mo under nnd
outside. Fortunately I had loft a couple
of feet of slat above.tho hooks , which
enabled mo to got a purchase , r.nd after
one or two slips which nearly sealed my
fate and brought out the cold perspira
tion in big drops I managed somehow to
drag myself up under and ever the
gutter , wherein I lay for some moments ,
entirely exhausted.
As soon as I recovered my strength
and there was no time to loose , I
reached down with a stick I had for t.ho
purpose , disengaged the wire fastening
the ladder to the bed post , and drew my
apparatus up bosltio mo.
I wan't a second too soon. The dog
now was barking violently nnd as 1
peered over the edge to take n last ob
servation before attempting to crawl
around to the street front , 1 hoard move
ments below and saw a man's shaggy
head stick out of tlio window I had just
loft. Lucky for mo it looked down nnd
not up.
Then came low and angry voices and
I know they were searching the room.
Then to the window they came and I
understood enough of tholr French jargon
gen to know thnt they wondered how I
got down past the dog and thnt I must bo
hiding in the hlirh walled yard. Then
they started down stairs to hunt mo.
Before I could crawl half way to the
corner of the roof there were three burly
follows , each with a lantern and n long
knife I saw the blades Hash in the light
silently following the unchained ,
bloodthirsty dog among the shrubbery
and outhouses in the garden. I lay ,
frozen with terror , Hat on the gutter ,
fearing every moment the moon would
shine through the clouds and discover
mo. And it did , but the terrible hunt-
urn 'ailed to observe mo , though I felt
sure that one , at least , looked in my di
rection. Then two of them returned
to the house with the dog , leaving the
third on guard outside.
Before the moon again appeared I
must got round the cornorfor I hoard the
dog barking inside leading his horrible
companions to the attic.
On hands and knees I ran along the
gutter to the corner , dreading to find ,
when there , that it reached no further.
Though not so wide , there was space
to uiovo on nnd I reached the street
front end and felt down , trusting to find
u water pipe on which to slide down to
thii walk. it was there , during the
risk of its uruaklng , I swung over tha
edge and thanks to my athletic train
ing ut college was able to grasp It with
hands nnd logs and lower inyaolf. .lust
then , ore my head was wholly out ol
sight , the lanterns gluamud through a
front attic window and the sash was
raised.
Down the pipe t slid llko a cat mid
huriMht before I know It in the dark my
foot touched terra llrnia , and without
putting on my bhoos , I was away , Hying
llkoaduor.
I suppose I ran for a mile through a
dirty neighborhood before I ventured to
put my shoes on anil take breath. When
I did so the gray dawn' lighted the sky
and fearing to question the few early
risers I mot , I pushed on till I came tea
a due-out part of the city. But in my
excitement and fright and in the dark
ness I completely lost truck of the place
in which 1 hud boon entrapped.
During the day I found my friend , the
doctor , and told him my story.Vo
gave it to the police at once and when
ono of their dutectivea personated an
American stranger just arrived and
Paris-green the next week , my polite
nnd accommodating cabman snapped
him up and , followed by the gendarmes ,
convoyed him to the murder house.
After a struggle they captured the In
mates nnd laitl bare the ttien new and
incredible business.
Tlie. remains of six victims at least
were found buried in the foliar , also an
unused grave , which no doubt , was made
ready for mo.
THK SUNSIII.MJ Ol-1 DICA.TI1.
Capital I'tiiilHliiiiont Among tin ; Soni-
inold Indians.
Two Seminoles wore recently executed
for the crime of murder according to the
Indian fashion at Wenokn , Indian ter
ritory.
Though they were ropularlv con
demned to death for their crime , no
obloquy attaches to their memory. On
the contrary , the whole tribe joined in
the funeral ceremony , and oven the executioners
'
cutioners , relatives' tholr victims ,
swelled the chords of the dirge that the
Seminoles chant above tholr dead war
riors who are entitled to honor.
When the council declared that the
two braves must die for their crime that
settled everything. No precautions wore
taken to prevent the escape of the con
demned mon. None were needed. The
white-headed chiefs had decided that
they should die , and the man-slayers
had lee much pride to show by running
away that they were afraid of death.
It was on a hot afternoon when the
council rendered its decision. The
council filed from the little house in
Which they had been deliberating for
seven hours into a corrall. In the center
of the enclosure there Is a largo Hat
rock. Tire oldest chief , wrinkled , bent
and feeble , stopped upon this rock as
upon a platform.
The entire tribe had gathered to hoar
the fate of John Frog and Jackson Wolf ,
and when the old chief raised his hand
there was the truiotof death.
"Lot all bo silent that they may hoar
the words of the council. Blood has
Ilowed from the body of Harg.
The widow and children cry for
food and there is none to give
them. Death came through John Frog
and Jackson Wolf , and it is our thought
that there wan no cause for the shedding
of blood. Now this is our decree : When
the sun shall Ki&s the death rock on the
sixth morning then shall John Frog and
Jackson Wolf pay the debt by giving
their lives into the family of Harg that
they may wipe out the stain , for our
fathers have said it that blood must bo
wiped out by blood. And to the widow
and children of the murdered man shall
bo given from the sustenance of John
Frog and Jackson Wolf millioiont to
keep them from want for one year. Ills
spoken. "
The days wont by and the people be
gan to gather about the Death ICot'k ,
from which the sentence had been de
livered.
It is a great Hut bowlder , nearly cir
cular , and the top is hardly two foot
above the ground. It is a dull brown
stone , but the original rolor is hidden
by darker stains. Ever since the Seminoles -
noles came to Indian Territory this rock
has been washed by the blood of tho.se
put to doath.
All of the customs they followed when
they ranged through the everglades of
Florida they brought with them to the
Territory , and , though they are now a
civilized tribe , the custom of allowing
the relatives of the dead to indict the
punishment on the murderer still
obtains.
The Death Rock is so situated that
the sun does not strlko it until
II o'clock. "When the sun
shall kiss the Death Hook"
was the language of the sentence , and
the execution could not bo carried out
until that time. Had clouds , obscured
the sin Frog and Wolf would have
lived until the clouds wore gone.
As the first tlngo of dawn lightened
the sky on the morning of August the
rapid boating of a drum roused the vil
lage and called together the members of
the Light horse company. It was the
signal of doath. With the dying away
of the sound men , women and children
came from the houses , and the village
was alive with the preparations of a
holiday , There were hurried prepara
tions for the morning meal , and then
every ono wont toward the enclosure
surrounding the council chamber.
Neither the dead man nor tho.-io who wore
to hiitl'or the penalty had relatives in the
village , and from the outlying country
came those who were to bo the principal
actors in the tragedy. As the sun rose
there came from the woods along the
crook which runs north of the village
these who had camped there throughout
the night , ready to bo on hand at the
earliest possible hour for tlie curumonica
which were to take place.
Meanwhile the line of sunlight was
steadily getting nearer and nearer to the
Death Hock.no ; ono minded it except the
six relatives of the dead man , who had
won at dice the privilege of carrying out
the sentence. One of thorn gave the
word when the line of light fell across
the rock.
Instantly Frog and Wolf , who had
boon laughing nnd talking among the
crowd , stepped out and walked toward
the rock. They began to sing a low ,
monotonous tune at first , but as they got
nearer to the rock It grow Iqudor and
louder , until they were fairly screaming
as they mounted the rook. They were
llko actors in a play. They took great
pains with tholr singing , but otherwise
showed no emotion. They sat upon the
edge of the rock and folded tholr arms.
The captain of the Light IIorKO ban
daged their eye.s , and the six relatives
stepped out and leveled tholr rlllus.
The two were htlll singing , bub the
song was low again , and the monotonous
chant could hardly bo hoard.
The rifles reared out , the song slopped
and through the smoke could bo seen tha
two Indians , fallen face do wnward and
btono dead.
They had n warrior's funeral , In which
the whole tribe joined , for they were
brave men , and the decree of the council
had wiped out all anger and bad fooling
between the funilllo ) .
