In Augsut.of the present year a monument to commemorate the deed or tht legend, no matter which It may be of William Tell, the popular hero of Switzerland, was dedicated at Altorf, the cspital of the canton of Uri, and the ie puted soone of Toll's most famous exploit. All Switzerland wus rep reaenled at Altorf; and the little town of less than three thousand people, which is today almost as simple and primitive as it was in the Middle Ages, was dressed in holiday garb. In the square before the council- house, near the old tower whicl marks the place where Tell is said to have shot the apple from his son's head, the statue has been raised. It is by the sculptor Rich the Austrian, and haye remained free ever since. 8ucli is the heroic story. Though there is no sufficient historical foundation for it, it compresses into a single brilliant narative the brave , exploits of a most spirited ami lib-) erty-loving pople. The inoriu-i mont to Tell, therefore, is far from being in any sense a monument to : a lie. It is the commemoration f the early struggles and successful aspirations of the Swiss mountaineers.

But on the way, a terrible storm arose; and as Tell was the only roan on board who knew .how to steer a boat on the lake in such weather, his chains were taken off and he was put in charge of the boat. Steering it near the rocks, Tell leaped off and made his escape. Gessler was fortunate enough to gpt out of the boat aliye; but on his way to Kussnacht he had to pass, with his followers, through a cer tain narrow defile.
