Blnny at Un Pletnrenque Feature* of the 1'n.t Are Gone. Tho Ohio Is no longer tho beautiful rlvor It onco was. It Mowed 111 mnjes- tic curves and sweeps through ii limit less paradise. The glory, of that rlvor In tho barbaric splendor of an autumn day Was beyond description. Roliod from tho Alleghaules to the Mississippi in her gorgeous fabric of maplo and sycamore, which everywhere drooped down to tho stately Mood, Bhlmmorlng, bending In her course with consldcrato and majestic dignity, a trip on ono of tho brightly painted sleninlionts was tho event of a lifetime. Thor® was nlso a dignity In tho steamboats. They did not pnut and rattlo like a locomotive, nor woro they silent like nn ocean stoamer. Tho long, huge steam cylin ders, with deliberation and a soft though pervading sound, blow lingo clouds of steam into tho air. Tho river steamers were tho Monte Carlos of the now world. Every ono of them carried Its contingent of professional gamblers, onch of whom hod a "howle” In his boot leg. These men, unmolested, trav eled tho year round between Pittsburg and Now Orlenns, lleeclng tho unwary and paying a percentage to tho. cap tains. The Ohio Is n noblo river yet, though winding through forest denuded hills. Tho orchards nml corullelds nro at tractive. It promised once to become tho Rhine In vlneynrds, but the grapes woro smitten \jdth a rust which de stroyed tho crops until tho attempt was abandoned. It will never bo crowned with feudal cnstlcs In ruins, but tho groves will bo replanted, and another century eml will see It onco more tho "beautiful river.”—Chicago Interior.

The Senator's Story of n TliooKlitless Act That florcly Eiicaped tlesalttofr fn n Trotreily—A Lucky Bound Into the Air. "Moro than 20 years ago,” said, tho senator In reminiscent mood, ‘T was doing clerical stunts at Hamilton, Ncv„ and having about ns, enjoyablo nn ex istence as I have ever known, before or sinoo. Tho blue skies, the big moun tains, the Invigorating air, tho whole- somo food and the Interesting peoplo all around me made my life about as good as life ought to bo this side of tbo pearly portnls. My work was not bo confining that I could nut get nwny on mountain walks pretty frequently, and ouo day I started out with my dog for a turn up Mouut Tom, just be yond tho town. The main highway leading Into tho town from tho west passed along the sldo of this mountain and on over a gap Into tho valley be yond. , “I had a pnftlculnr object In view, nnd with my dog I wandered nlong up tho mountain, which was without vege- tntlon except a furzy thicket In places, and tho surfaco was covered with rocks of various sizes from a footbnll to a haystack. After nwhilo, for some thing hotter to do, 1 begnu to roll tho stones down the mountain side, nnd It rapidly developed Into a most exciting sport, for tho mountnln wns steep and tho rocks went down with a whoop and a hurrah that stirred tho blood to watch them ns they hounded along. I never thought of tho road passing along about 1,000 feet down the hill, and, ns uobody happened to bo going by, my atteutlon wns not cnllcd to It In that way, nnd I kept on. "Naturally enough, my success with tho smaller stones made lge ambitious, nnd I essayed something larger. It was a dandy, too, a great big, round bowlder that would hnvo weighed a ton If It weighed a pound. It wan a job to get It started, but by pulling tbo rocks from under It on tbo lower sldo and loosening It up all nround I got It going at last and stood back to enjoy Its progress down tho mountain. It went slowly at first, as If In doubt, but It struck a steep place about 50 feet down the bill, and It lenped out llko a restive horse from tbo post, and away It went, bounding a dozen feet Into tbe air and jumping over gullies nnd rocks as If It were rubber. About 000 feet down, when It was going at tremen dous speed, It leaped 00 feat Into tbe air, and I was Just going to let off a whoop when I saw a 12 mulo team In tbo narrow road below nnd directly In tbe track of tbo monster. “The team was drawing two wagons, as was tbo custom with the mountain freighters, nnd It wns driven by old Jorry Simpson, one of tbo best known teamsters In tho mountains. It simply paralyzed me, for I didn't see anything but destruction for everything In tbo way. There was no turning back or whipping up to got out of tbe way, for tho load wns heavy nnd tlio road was rough nnd narrow. I stood speechless, scared white, but, tbe driver had seen tho rock coming, nnd, dropping off tho saddle mule, bo broke buck up tho road ns hard ns he could run. I would hnvo run, too, but my legs refused to act, nnd I stood fast nnd watched tho grant rock go tumbling down toward its victims. I hadn’t long to wait, of course, nnd just ns I gasped at the Inst hound of the bowlder It struck nu ob struction of somo Kind nnd Jumped elenn over the tenm and tbo rond nnd went crashing oa Its wny down Into tbo ravine below. “Thou I recovered my wits, nnd, knowing that what I bad been doing was entirely Inexcusable, I skinned off up the mountnln behind the rocks and disappeared, trusting to Trovldenee that the old Jerry hadn't Identified me.; I slipped nround another way tA town' nnd got In all right without having any questions asked where I had been, and that evening I went over to tho post- otllce, which was n general loafing place, nnd there found Jerry telling of bis wonderful osenpo. “ ’Domed ef I didn’t think It wuz a haystack comln down tbe hill,’ he said, ’with somethin alive In It.’ “ ’Hnvo you any Idea who rolled it down?’ I asked Innocently. “ ‘In course I bnln’t. Ef I hadn't been In Bleb a hurry and left my Win chester In the wagon, I'd ’a’ found out mighty quick, fer I seen him run, nnd he had a dog with him.' "I wns n little nervous, but"l kept on asking questions, “ 'What did you have In your wag ons?’ I said. “ ‘Dynamite.' Four tons liv It’ ‘“Good Lord!’ I exclnlmed. There wouldn’t linve been much left of that team, would there?’ “ 'Nor me, neither,' I reckon,’ he Bald, shaking his head. “ ‘What did you think of ns you were running up the rond?’ “ 'Not much uv anything, I guess, but mostly ef they wuz goto to be able to git enough uv Jerry Simpson meat out of that mule meat to have a funer al with.’ “I don’t kuow where Jerry is now," concluded tho senator; “dead, I sup pose, hut I never told 1dm who rolled tlmt rack dowu the hill, uor did I ever tell anybody lu that town who did It, * because It came altogether too near be- lug a tragedy for It over to be con sidered a joke.”—New York Sun. ACCIDENT AT ARAGON. A little six-year-old son of Mr. W. H. Napier, who holds a responsible posi tion with tbo mills at Aragon, met with a fatal aooldont Sunday afternoon. He was walking with his parents on a railroad trestle, when he fell through to tho rooks below, orasbing his skull. Ho died within a few boars after tbe awful oeoarrence. THE DEATH OF THE WORLD. Scientists Fall to Agree aa to flow the End Will Come. Scientists seem to ngree that tbe earth some day Is to be destroyed by a gigantic cataclysm, but fall to agreo upon the "how.” Dr. Henry Smith Williams, to writing In Harper's Monthly on "Some Unsolved Scientific Problems,” says: “If so much uncertainty attends tbeso fundamental questions as to tbe earth’s. past and present, It Ib not Btrnnge that open problems ns to her future are still more numerous. We linve seen how, according to Professor Darwin's computations, tho moon threatens to come back to earth with destructive force somo day. Yet Pro fessor Darwin himself urges that tbere are elments of fallibility to tbe data Involved that rob tbe computation of all certainty. ‘‘Much the same thing Is true of per haps all the estimates that have been made as to the earth's ultimate fate. Thus It has been suggested that, even should tile sun's beat not forsake us, our day will become montb long and then year long; that all the water of tlio globe must ultimately filter Into Its depths aud all the air fly off Into space, leaving our earth as dry nnd as devoid of atmosphere ns the moon, and, finally, that ether friction, If it exists, or, to default of tlmt, meteoric friction, must ultimately bring tbo earth back to tlio sun. “But to all thoso prognostications there are possible compensating factors tlint vitiate the estimates and leave tbe exact results to doubt. Tbe last word of the cosmic science of our cen tury Is a prophecy of evil—if annihila tion bo aa ovil. But It Is left for tho science of another generation to point out more clearly tlio exact torrns la which the prophecy Is most likely to be fulfilled.” November Sure, and get it done before rainy weather sets in.
