IN DOUBLE D ANGER.
A Strange Adventure,
I’ve had many a queer voyage in my
time (said Captain M ), out the
queerest I ever had was one that I made
(somewhat unexpectedly, as vou will
see) upon the Great Fish River, in South
Africa, on my way back from a hunting
excursion.
As I neared the bank I saw that the
river was in full flood, more than twice
its usual breadth, and running like a
mill-raoe. I knew at oooe that I should
have a very tough job to get acroas—for
a flooded African river ia no joke, I can
tell you. But 1 knew aleo that my wile
wotdd be terriblv aaiious If I didn't

m would hardly be much
by a hoe would hardly be much * aa
haprewemut, and as I hadn't the gho*
ef achaaevof befog akin tofftfoseolufek
there really seemed to be no other al
ternative.
Fester end faster we went- louder
and louder grew the roar of the cata
ract; the lion seemed to have given him
self up for lost, aad crouched down
among the leaves, only uttering a low,
moaning whine every now and then.
I was fairly at my wit's end what to
do, when all of a sudden I caught sight
of something that gave me a glance of
hope.
A little wav ahead of us the river nar
rowed suddenly, and a rocky headland
thrust itself out a good way into the
stream. On one of the lowest points of
it grew a thick clump of trees, whose
boughs overhung the water; and it
struck me that, if we only passed near
enough, 1 might manage to catch hold
of one of the branches, and swing my
self up on to the rock.
No sooner said than done. I started
up, hardly caring whether the lion at
tacked me or not, and planted myself
firmly on one of the biggest roots,
where I could take a good spring when
the time came. I knew that this would
be my last chance, for by this time we
were so near the precipice that I could
see quite plainly, a little way ahead,
the great cloud of spray and vapor that
hovered over the grs* waterfall. Even
at the be* it was a desperate venture,
aad I can tell yon that I felt my heart
to thump like a »l*dfe-hara-

Gardner tanMdTM nto^eare
the stand, when Judge Dobbin dire, ted
him to map a mam sat, and told hi*
that he probably did not know that the
la* Legwlatnre had passed a law for
the benefit of jost such offenders as he
was. The court added: “Your punish
ment shall be thirty lashes * the whip
ping-post.’’ For a moment the man
seemed speechless with surprise, and
then, looking over his ■boulder, as if
trying to get a good view of his back,
■aitL “Fou de Lord, Judge, I rather
have seven years in jsil,’’ and shrugged
his shoulders with a sort of shiver. The
Judge further said that he intended to
put the whipping-post into existence
under the law; that only two or three
examples would be neoeesary, and the
offense would be entirely abated. Mr.
Edward J. Clarke, counsel for the ac
cused, soon after filed a motion for a
new trial, and the case will therefore go
to the Supreme Bench. He will take
the ground that the law is unconstitu
tional, and further, that Gardner was
never married to the woman, and he,
therefore, did not beat his wife, which
is the offense which the law describes.

This per*
ton was a pork botcher named Fea-
aeeey, residing to Limerick City, who,
It appears had frequently demonstrated
his peculiar capacity for swallowing
whisky against time. His last exhibi
tion In this line was witnessed by a nu
merous company, and it is understood
that a good deal of money changed
hands over the event. Fennessy's
backers, who Were numerous, laid
heavily on their man, who, they felt
confident from hi* previous feats fat
rwallowing a large quantity of strong
liquor in a small space of time, would,
ss one of them expressed it, “ get out
ride the six glasses of whisky quicker
than a cat could sneeze.’’ The cham
pion fire-water swallower stripped to
tils work; it was his enstom to drink in
his shirt and trowsers only; like most
remarkable men, he had some peculiari
ty; the connection between the wearing
of stockings and the swilling of half a
dozen glasses of whisky in a minute is
not quite obvious, but Fennessy re
moved his stockings before attacking
the six glasses filled with home-manu
factured stuff, which were drawn up
in a row before him on a (able. A

Tbs Aourlsktoft eoudMon of Mm bak
ing powder trade is evident froni a
glance at the advcrtielng eoturaas at
aomeede aad rsllgioas paper*. Tba
cause is probably due to the fact that
better result* are obtainable with them
than with their oonstitnenU used sepa
rately. And why? The be* baking pow
ders are mad* of cream of tartar anjl
soda, mixed in eqoivaient quantities,
some inert substance being added to
keep them dry.
The cook or housewife used to buy
the ingredients separately and mix them
when she used them, and usually the
results were satisfactory. As she trust
ed to measuring them in teaspoons of
various sizes instead of weighing them,
and of course she sometimes got an ex
cess of one or the other, and the bread
was either “sour” or brown with soda.
But another and worse difficulty arose,
for the adulteration fiend invaded the
cream of tartar can, and this article
became of such uncertain strength that
only a prophet could tell how liule soda
it would neutralize. This went from
bad to worse, until some samples were
found that contained no cream of tar
tar at all. This was the golden oppor
tunity for the “baking powder” men,
and they improved it well. While some
tried to make a cheap article, others
preferred to make a good one, and
amid chargee and counter charges of
alum, acid, etc., they hare gone oa roil
