A Tangle of Wild Thoughts Combined With Vague Notions of Time and Space-The Dreamy Doze, the Res cue and the Knife In His Back. Standing on a chair near the deck rail of an ocean liner, a sudden lurch of the vessel flung me into the Atlantic. Instinctively as I went over I held my arms out for the dive, and while I was still falling I heard the cry ring out. "Man overboard!" Down, down I sank., for the fall was from a considerable height Being able to swim a !lttle, I was spared the first mental agony experienced by the non swimmer who unexpectedly finds him self in deep water. The surprise caused by the suddenness of the fall filled my brain, but as I struggled to regain the surface, my lungs almost bursting, the horrible thought of the propeller churning out its 100 revolu tions a minute flashed upon me. Should I be mangled beyond recogni tion in a second? Oh, for another year's sweet life: Would my leg be cut clean off or I could see the sky again, and I took a great breath of fresh air, though sick with fear. Then I saw the steamer had passed. I was spared mutilation to die slowly by drowning. How rapidly the steamer was vanish ing! I could "atch a glimpse of it when a green wave lifted me high in the water. I would only be able to swim for ten minutes-ten little min utes:-though I was still in the prime of life. Surely that cry as I fell would have roused somebody to action! And yet I was alone in the Atlantic, with possibly two miles of water between me and the bottom. I looked round anxiously to see whether a lifebuoy had been thrown. There was nothing in sight but a wide waste df water and the fast disappear ing steamer. My arms were growing heavy. All I tried to do was to keep my head above water, but I seemed to have been do ing that for an hour. My legs, too, were refusing to bend. The end could not be far away. My arms must both be broken, for they would hardly move, and they ached terribly. What a long time a man could keep afloat! I was vaguely glad I could not swim very well, be cause it would have meant waiting for the end such a long time. It made one drowsy. Another wave lifted me up. and I saw the steamer had changed its posi tion. It must be going back to Eng land to tell them at home what had happened to me. How soothing the sea was! If only I could stop trying to work my arms that aching pain in them would cease and I might go to sleep. Sometimes when I saw the ship, which never seemed to get any farther away now, I remembered I was fight ing for another minute's life. It had been harder at first, but ncw the sea lulled me into happiness. What on earth were they playing at on the steamer? I had nearly caught it up again, only somehow I had got in front of it. It grew bigger quickly, and It was coming straight on. If those ridiculous people were not care ful they might run over me yet Perhaps It would be better to go to sleep, after all. My arms were easier, and I did not want to breathe so much now. It was getting dark and ever so much colder than it was last night. The steward must give me an extra blanket Why was everything so hazy and the room stuffy? I could hardly breathe. And yet it didn't matter. Nothing mattered, but I wished dreamily that some one would stop digging a knife into my back, for I was just dropping off to sleep nicely. *. * * S * S Next day I .found the "knife" had been the point of a boat hook with which they picked me up as I came to the surface. The steamer had turned in a circle and arrived just in time. London Answers. Exaggerated. The knack of looking at the bright side of things was never developed tc such perfection as in the case of a man who, after a railway accident, tel egraphed to his fricnd's wife: "Your husband killed In railway ac cident: head, both arms and both legs cut off." But later this correction was re celved: "First report exaggerated. Your hus. band killed; head and legs cut off, bu1 only one arm." Mixed.

"in the prehistoric days at Bar Iar bor," said a Itoston man, "before the dress suit had cast its blighting shad ow there and when 1cdick's and the 'fsh pond' were the center of all the gayety. life was pleasant, even though many of the conveuiencea which we now demand were wholly lacking. Ro dick's was a barn of a place with no elevator and innocent of electric bells. One man in imminent need of ice wa ter once obtained it, however, by going into the hall and yelling 'Murder!' at the top of his lungs. le gathered to gether most of the hotel guests and finally got the ice water of his soul's desire, but his success did not seem to establish a precedent. "The fire department was, so to speak, in embryo. In the Rodick at the head of each stairway there used to stand a large hogshead of water for use in an emergency, and thereby hangs the tale I am about to tell you. "Late of an evening there entered the deserted 'fish pond' a young man whose fixed and glassy eye and wan dering smile betrayed what his even ing's occupation had been. In order to settle any lingering doubt as to his condition, however, he proceeded to emit a series of blood curdling shrieks, which called forth a hasty and em phatic protest from the night clerk, who on advancing upon the inebriat ed one was promptly laid low by a right hander. The night force in an angry array promptly went to the succor of the night clerk, whereat his assailant retreated upstairs. closely followed by his pursuers. "Reaching the landing, he espied the hogshead of water, which he promptly heaved lown the stairway upon his opponents, who drenched byv the wa ter and carried off their feet by the butt itself, in a wild state of rage renewed the attack, only to be treat ed to the same dose on the second flight of stairs and yet again on the third, at which point, his ammunition being exhausted, they captured and got even with the belligerent one. "In the morning great was the anger and loud the lamentations of Herr Rodick at the state of his stairway and the damaged condition of his night force, but he who had accomplished the outrage was rich in this world's goods, from part of which he was made to separate for divers ruined carpets, sun dry abrasions and for giving five men three baths apiece at $1 a bath, the regular rate at that time in Bar Har HE WAS SCARED. Why the Drummer Made Record Time Out of Pittsburg. "I am not a man to brag," said the Cincinnati drummer, "but I feel that I can honestly say that I was never real scared but one time in my life, and that happened a year ago." When asked in a casual way to back up his statement with particulars, he continued: "I was at a hotel in Pittsburg. I had a room on the third floor, and in com ing out of it on an occasion I bumped against a man who was passing. I was feeling in ugly mood that day and when the bump came I shot off my mouth at the stranger. He replied in kind, and I suddenly shot out my left and caught him on the point of the chin and dropped him like a log." 1"-And you thought you had killed hinm?" '"No. Ie lay there and snored like a seal, and I went downstairs and told the clerk he had better see to him. Three minutes later I had twenty dif ferent men around me begging me to fly for my life." '-But why?" "Because I had knocked out a mid deweight prize fighter who had won over thirty battles. Gee whiz, but when they told me who the chap was my knees gave under me, my mouth got dry as cotton, and I didn't stop for my grip. I was dusting across the river within ten minutes, and I didn't feel safe for the next three days.
