TAMES McCOMBI, a California
rauchman, has haa an exceed
ingly nar. ow escape from death
in the forest fires which have
been raging in the vicinity of Ukiah.
Ho was visiting a friend who lives on
Pine Ridge. five miles from Ukiab,
and shortly after his descent froi
the civide, he e-ntered a narrow m
vou. When he started E. -t the iro
was Nu the northern cIde of the can
yon, so he rode leisurely along. He
finally reached an abrupt turn in tht
trail, whence his view toward the
cast was unobstructed for at least half
a mile. He then discovered that the
fire had crossed the canyon on the
east, and effectually blokaded cgresn
in that direction. There remained
theu the alternative of returning or
perishing in the flames, as the sides
of the canyon through which be
was traveling were s) steep and rre
cipitous as to render escapc by as
cending the mountains impossible.
He turned his horse wid prepare-1 for
a retreat.
He had proceeded but a short dis
tance when he saw that the fire had
also crossed the canvoi ou the west,
thus practically imprisoning him in a
circle of flames. His horse at this
time began also to realize the danger
of the position and soon beceme un
manageable. Seeing the impossibil
ity of escaping horseback McComb
left his hoise and attmpted to scale
the lofty mountain wall to the south.
This he fonnd to be impossible, so he
again took the trail and proceedel
west, directly in the face. of the
tlV,e, hoping, apparently against
to dimcover some method of es
cape furtIter down.
McComb soon saw that it would be
impossible to escape by going further
west, so he plinged down into t2e
bottom of the canyon, along which
flowed a stream of water of consider
able volume. Bathing his face in the
cooling stream McComb determined
to make a last attempt to escape up
the mountain side. As he was about
to start he glanced up the canyon ane
discovered a small cascade, the stream
having a descent of aboiit twelve feet.
ie quickly sprang up the bank and
made his way to the cascade.
. There he saw behind the curve of
the water a depression in the rock suf
ficiently large to afford a place of tafe
ty from tho flames. Into this he
sprang. The walls were damp anal
cool, and McComb was satisfied that
for tht time being he was safe.
In the meantime the fire had spread
raikliv, and before long the brush
and treces directly over the place of
refuge were atire. The depression
grew alarmingly warm, but not saf
ticntly se to cause any particular un
asness. McCormb remained behin 1
the cascado from about two o'clock
in the afternoon until 9 Joeok
net morning. When he emerged the
entt:e face of the cinyou ha&changed;
the fire having cleared it ot all vege
ation. He made his way through
fallen branches and burning-~lirnbs
with considerable difficulty, but
reached U~kiah little the worse for
his exciting adventure.
Clinging to a SubmnergedI Rock.
Miss Aske&s narrative of how she
and her companion narrowly escaped
death on the rock-bound coast of the
Island of Jersey will recall to the minds
of many readers a stirrin;g episode in
cot's 'Guy Mannering.' Enticed by
treacherous calm, under a bright
blue sky, the party, consisting of Miss
Askew and Miss'3MarsA-both Birm
iughanm ladies-and their friend, Mr.
EeralJ, out forth from St. Heliers for
a row; but, according to Miss Askew's
statements, commnunicatedl to a con
tributor7 to the Birminghanm Daily
Gaztte, they were scarcely on the
open sea before the breeze suddenly
freshned and' the water became
"hopy.' ..Agompanion boat, with
some friendls.aboard, made at once for
the point of sta'riing, and contrived to
gt Iback safely ; but Mr. Everall uin
fortnatcly snapped an oar, and found
it impossible with the remaining blade
to scull the boat homeward or prevent
her drifting towards a dangerous reef
of rocks only about a ile and a half
from the land. Luck ily he was enabled
to steer for a "comib" that stood higher
above the waTes than its neight>ors:,
and here with difficulty they landed.
The sun was now sinking, and they
could liscern the people on the shore.
