HIS WILD LEAP IN THE DARK. ft Carried Horse and Rider Past the Edge of a 8heer Cliff to a Fall of Two Hundred and Fifty Feet to the Rocks and Water Below, Yet the Man Lived. Perhaps the moht extraordinary fall that, a human being ever survived is that described by Tliorinanby in hiH "Sporting Stories." The lucky man was Colonel William Yorke Moore, a British officer, who rode his horse in the dark over a sheer nreolnlre *>47 feet in height and came out alive! It seems incredible that such a fearful experience should result In anything but instant death, yet here are the facts, which once again confirm the adage that truth Is more wonderful than fiction: Colonel Moore, who commanded the troops at Dominica, lost his way one evening after sunset. In complete darkness he endeavored to make his way home. Two or three times he had difficulty in making his horso cross obstacles, and at last they came to something that the horse would not face. Colonel Moore was a fearless rider. Again and again he rode his horse at full speed against the unknown obstacle. but in vain. At last, urged fiercely l.y ?.kln "-.1 i " - ij uj nui() (situ 3|iui, iue lerriueu animal, with a snort of terror, cleared the low hedge?for such the obstruction proved to be?and went over the cliff. Colonel Moore says that during his flight on horseback through the nlr every event of his whole life seemed to pass In a luminous panorama before him. Suddenly there came a terrific concussion, which deprived him of his senses and left him with bis legs In the sen and his body on the rocks, apparently dead. He must have lain there stunned for some hours, for when at last the lapping water and the cool breezes restored him the moon was shining brightly in midheaven, and its beams fell upon the upturned, glictering shoes of his gallant horse, which lay dead and mangled beside him. As soon as be had collected his scattered wits Colonel Moore coolly began to examine himself to ascertain what injuries he had sustained. He found that he was severely cut about the body and bead, that his right ankle wus dislocated and that his back was benumbed or paralyzed by the concussion of bis fall. ojffh^n (be sun rose sbonc upon bis lrnre.' bleeding bead with such intolerable heat that, as a protection from its\ rays, he tied bis cotton handkerchief about his forehead. Above his head projected the two ends of the knotted bandage stained crimdon with bis blood. After lying in horrible pain for several hours he spied a boatful of natives rowing toward the spot where he lay. As they came near he hailed them in a faint voice, but the moment they saw the ghastly figure of the colonel, with his bloody headdress. they set up a yell and rowed away as it^O.OOO fiends were after them. After some time a single black man came clambering over the rocks. Intent on catching fish. He was within a rew yards of the colonel when the latter hailed him. The moment the negro caught sight of the bleeding head and the blood stained bandage he. too. ottered a fearful yell, flung down his rod and line and scrambled off over the rocks as fast as his feet and hands would carry him. The colonhl now began to resign himself to the prospect of a lingering death, but fortunately his English servant, alarmed at his master's absence. went In search of him and. following the horse's tracks, at last came to the edge of the precipice. The sudden disappearance of the hoof prints near the low hedge fence convinced him that an accident had happened. lie ran to the barracks and got out a boat, which a party of soldiers rowed to the foot of the clifT. very renaeriy nuu eareruiiy the soldiers lifted the colonel Into the boat and. brought him bnck to the barracks. For some months he lay in great pain and danger, but In time the paralyzed mnscles of his back recovered, and eventually he was restored to complete health. Not even the slightest touch of lameness remained to remind him of his fall. Um Chloride of Lima. Next to corrosive sublimate the most effective germ destroyer and deodorizer Is chloride of lime.
