YETERAN WRITER EORGE ALFKED IIENTY of Loudon Is the most popular au thor of boys' books on either side of the Atlantic. Every year of his life he writes' at least three long historical novels for boys, and no Christmas would seem quite complete without its gifts of "Henty books." He hag writ ten about eighty of these juvenile nov els in all, besides enough other books to make a total of nearly a hundred volumes. Mr. Henty now Is 69 years of age, but his marvelous powers of lit erary production continue unabated. In his youth he left Cambridge Univer sity to enter the Crimean war, and he has been a correspondent from the bat tlefield during most of the Important European wars since then. This expe rience has fitted him for writing tales of military adventures, and there seems to be no end to hla resources. OVER NIAGARA IN A BARREL. Remarkable Feat of a Woman, Who tacape Serious I J irr. Mrs. Anna Edson Taylor, of Bay City, Mich., celebrated her forty-third birth day by making a successful trip over Niagara Falls in a barrel. She is the first person to at tempt such a per formance, and the thousands who witnessed the per formance were amazed at the manner In which the barrel plunged over reef after reef in the upper rapids, rushing MRS. TAYLOR. with the current toward the famous waterfall. Regarding the feat, Mrs. Taylor after ward said: "I would sooner walk up to the mouth of a cannon, knowing that It was going to blow me to pieces than to make another trip over the falls.' I made it voluntarily, but I would not do it again for $1,000,000. The burrel in which Mrs. Taylor ac complished the feat was about six feet long. Attached to the bottom were heavy weights to hold It upright. With in the barrel were straps, attached to the bottom, which were placed over the woman's shoulders to prevent her head fron bumping against the top. Over her head, during the trip, was a pillow for farther protection. On the memorable day Mrs. Taylor and her barrel were rowed Into the up per river and set adrift in a current that rapidly bore her toward the rap Ids. Striking the first incline of watp In the rapids, the barrel took an - e vin ion It All MRS.

A little to the Cana dian side of the center of the falls the barrel took Its plunge and dropped, clouded In mist, to the lower river, a distance of 158 feet. While the desperate plunge was being taken thousands of spectators held their breath In anxiety and suspense, everyone believing that the fall would be fatal aud that another would be added to the long list of the victims of Niagara. Two minutes after the plung ing barrel had been lost In the mist of the tremendous cataract It appeared In the seething white water below the falls. It gradually was carried by the current to the Canadian side and was hauled ashore. The 'top was hastily sawed off and Mrs. Taylor was taken out She had suffered a contusion on the right side of the head and bad re .Jed numerous bruises on the body, llei'xpus system had suffered a se vere t.,Ock and since then she has been affllcteU with severe headaches. Ex actly fifty minutes had elapsed from the time she was flent adrift until she was released fromvjbe barrel. When she reached, her hotelVgh broke dowa and wept.

She is a graduate of the State Normal School at Albany and has taught school in Texas and more re cently at Bay City, Mich. She owns a ranch in Texas and it was with the view of making mdney by exhibiting herself and her barrel and lifting a mortgage on the ranch that she made her perilous trip thronsrh Nlntrnra ran ids. During the trip Mrs. Taylor prayed constantly except during a few mo ments of unconsciousness following the plunge. She says she was spun around like a top and struck rocks three times. REVOLVER WOUNDS. More Dangeroaa, for Varlon Reason, than Those of the Rifi, Wounds in civil life differ from those in military life in the greater after danger of septic lnvolvment. Revolver cartridges are more liable than are rifle cartridges to have been handled frequently, to have been carried In dir ty pockets and to have come in contact with various forms of Infectious mate rials that may prove of serious conse quence when burled in the tissues. Moreover, revolver cartridges are cov ered with a coating of grease, and this encourages an accumulation of mani fold mlcroblc material, some of which may prove to be of a virulently Infec tions nature. Rifle bullets are practically always sterilized by the intense heat develop ed by the powder at the moment of their discharge. Their rapid progress through the air while in a heated con dition still . further serves to cleanse them of any extraneous material that may chance to have accumulated on their surfaces. This cleansing process Is very effectually begun by the rifling of the rifle barrel through which the bullet forces Its way. -. All of these favorable factors are lacking In the case of the revolver bul let, and so it is possible that lu any given case such a bullet may carry In fectious material with It into the tis sues. If this were In small amount na ture might effectually wall It off and no serious consequences result. On the other hand, such Infectious material might lie seemingly dormant for days, but really slowly gathering strength by multiplication, and when Its toxins were elaborated In sufficient amount they might paralyze protective cheino taxis an 1 produce a septic condition. New York Medical News. A Man of Metal. The "Irou Chancellor" has disappear sd, says the Westminster Gazette, but there Is still a Toulon very much alive who Is "a man of Iron" in an almost lit eral sense of the term. This came out a few days ago when a young German porter bragged at a public house that he was a man of Iron, since a sports man had discharged at least ninety grains of shot into his back, lie would have nothing to do with surgeons, wherefore his brother had removed about half of the "load" by the simple expedient of cutting the shots out with a knife. ' The story was presently brought before the authorities, and the porter was medically examined, with the result that his story proved abso lutely true. Ills back and arms wcro "larded" wlthead balls, which he car ried about without any discomfort whatever. The reason for his reluc tance to approach a surgeon seems to have been that the sportsman who had thus marked him was a gamekeeper, and it was while he was on a poaching expedition that 111 luck thus befell him.

It Happened Some Yeara Ago In the Woolly West. In evidence of Roosevelt's ability to take care of himself a story was told to-day 1 the White House. The Pres ident when not many years younger than now was spending a part of the early winter on a ranch In Wyoming. While going from the railway station to the ranch on foot a sudden blizzard broke out and compelled him to turn back and make his way with the wind and snow down the railway track. After traveling a mile or two he came to one of those resorts patron ized by cow-punchers In the West. Gro ceries and general merchandise were sold, but the principal attraction was the long bar where the liquid goods were passed over. Roosevelt entered Aletly and took a chair behiud the gwV roarln8 cannon stove in one cor n.)f the room. A typical Western bully had been holding forth In the bar-room that evening and had made every newcomer buy a round of drinks, or dance as he fired pistol shots at their feet. Roosevelt had laid aside his coat and was leaning back comfortably in his chair when espied by the "bad man." He sized Roosevelt up, and, noticing his glasses, accosted him. "Well, old four eyes, what the do you want in here?" Roosevelt tried to quiet the man, realizing his disposi tion, but was not successful. The bully uuuiiu wul ivuuac-Vcit OUJr' U UllUk lot everybody In tire place or dance a jig. Roosevelt refused to do either, when VLs. it? a. 11 1 it 1 11 ir ituTurt ion DTQimon nr nil mn his pistol, and announced that only two minutes would be allowed In which to comply with his command. Roosevelt as he slowly rose to his feet, said: "Well, if I must I must" Ue had scarcely straightened himself out as his words were uttered when he bent his right arm into a hook and landed an uppercut on the tip of the West erner's chin, which sent him inglorl ously to the floor, the revolver fall ing from his hand. For the next ten minutes Roosevelt was busy in pull ing off the other occupants of the room, who Insisted on placing their feet rapidly and vigorously In the ribs of the fallen humorist.
