At the end of the first mile the oar was 8N> i ing seventy miles an hour; at the end i of the second mile between ninety and one hundred. In fact, my interest was so aroused by the rapidity with which the speed Indicator had kept jumping up, that we wes-e running a hsndred miles an hour before I thought to look out of the window. W hen I did I was disappointed. It was evident we were traveling at tre mendous speed, but the car was wery steady, and there was nothing excit ing. The sensation was about the j game as that which a passenger on l the Lake Shore Road gets when the train is running seventy miles an hour. Later, as I stood by the side of the motorneer, or with the brakeman at the rear, the sensation was far more vivid. Standing just ‘behind the motor | ■ wheel in the front of the car, one is ! far nearer the track than he is 'when ; in a steajn «nglne; and the frightful rate at which the 'Track is being de | | voured of flies, Is bees, m#re and 'evident. even birds The upon impact the j curved glHss front of the car serves to heighten the effect. I must con fess that I held my breath as I saw the curve come in sight. Apparently the track ended, and the car seemed directed straight into the air at a speed sufficient to send it flying over into the German ocean. As it glided ! smoothly round the curve the sensa tion was something like that which | one has in an express elevator in one j of our American skyscrapers when he i jg dropped from ‘the fifteenth floor, and is not quite sure whether he will stop at the basement or go straight through to China—Henry S. Pritchett, in McClure’s. i Driving the Grizzly West. Ir, the days of Kit Carson the griz zly had not learned to look upon man as a foe to be shunned at any cost, but the quick firing magazine rifle has taught him that if he possibly can be must keep out of man’s sight. He has now been driven back into the almost inaccessible solitudes of the north western Rocky Mountains, and the sportsman who wishes to add his pelt and dangling necklace of claws to his collection of hunting trophies must travel far ,and endure much hardship | and labor, fer “old Ephraim,” as he ■was called by the Western pioneers, fs as cunning as he is fierce.—From J.
