Emeory in the New Orleans Times Democrat The completion of the 'Frisco rall- road from S Louls to Van Buaren, Ark., is a practizal abolltion of the old stegs llne from Fayetteville to Alma on the Fort Smith and Little Rock rallroad. Tais old route, passing through the virgin forests of Western Arkoansas and over two ranges of mountaine, s replete with the most beautiful scenery as the road winds its rogged course over mountalns and valleys for nearly a hundred milee. Even the far-famed ' Land of the Syy” cannot boast of more diversified tractions, About two years ago, ing enjoyed the season at the justly celebrated Eareka Springs, and hear 80 much about this wild, pletur- que c¢ountry, I concluded to en- aure the hardships of the long stsge ride and roturn _ home by this route. At Fasetteville I trans. ferred myself from a Pullman to a seat in the cambersomo stage; the mail- bags were cafely stored away, and promptly at 2 p. m. the driver took hia seat, and as eur four horses start- ed 1o a lively trot we realized that our journey had begun. There were two other passengers, One was a mild- eyed gentleman of dignified reserve, who proved to be a college professor, while the cther wore a flannel, check- ered cvershirt, and his pantaloons were tucked into a patr of very heavy, coarse boots, ovidently a laborer. The professor explained that he was em- ploying his summer’s vacation in se- curing specimens to enrich his entomo- logical and botanical collections, and every time he saw a ourlons bug or flower he would want to get out and secure it, until the driver finally de. olared that he couldn’t lose the time, and refused to hamor him further, As Ciptain Cattle would express it, he was ‘‘chook full o’ sclence,” and when he found he couldn’t collect ‘‘spect- mens” he began an Interminable sclen- tific dissertation that was about as monotonous and, interesting as the pattering of rain on the house top. We reached the summit of the firat range of mountains just at sunset, snd paused until the sun sank beneath the horizon, the most gorgeous soene I ever witnessed, No one can boast of having seen » glortous sunset until he has viewed one from » mountain top on a clear, summer evening. We resumed our Ionmay, and directly the noon arose ike a great ball of fire, that lighted up mountains and yalleys with indescrib- able beauty. 1 had taken my seat on the box with the driver that I might the batter enjoy the view, and at the same time escape the learned jargon of the professor, who was focusing his learning upon our friend of the cheock- ered shirt. In making a steep ascent we passed along a very narrow ledge overlooking a chasm go deep that the light of the moon failed to penetrate the cavern- ous darkness. We paused to admire the awfal grandeur of the scene, and while the professor’s head was stuck out of the window in silent admiration his silz bat fell off, struck the ground, bounded over the brink, and dlsap peared from view in the darkuess be- low. He jumped out and appoared as though inclined to follow it, and begged us in the most pitifal manner to get it for him. Considering the trivial lcss of the hat his anxiety appeared most ridioulous. pocket knife; from our passenger In the boots, 70 cents and a pleca of to- baceo; while I, unfortupately, had only a toothpick. “You —— sot of paupers,” ex olaimed he with the gun in disgust, “‘gou're hardly worth killlng, so we'll lot you tramp Into town as rich as when you first came into the world, Pall off évery rag you have on, and be quick aboat it or f may oonolude to waste a little powder and lead on ou. At this the man In the checkered shirt exclaimed: “‘Our duds won't be worth much to you, bat if you will examline the Iin ing of that gentleman’s hat you'll find some money."” The professor collared the fellow, but the robber pulled him away. and taking the hat found the &1 100, which #o pleased them that they gra. oclovsly told us to go where wo withed Indignsnt at the traitorous conduct « f the renegade, wo refused to let him ride with vs, and thus left him, We reached Alma jast too late for tho train, and were obliged to lay cvar antil the next day. Late thatevening, a8 the professor and I were sitting in the office of the hotel, to our sur. rise in walked tho fellow that ad acted so basely, looking none the better for his long tramp. C(om- fng towards us, he begged us for We finally discovered it oau%:: in some bushes, about ten feet below, and entirely beyond reach. Upon the profeesor’s offering $25 for Its recovery the driver tock the reins from his horses, tied them together, and secur- ing one end to a tree and the other around his body let himself down,and presently appeared with the hat, to the great joy of the owner, who cheer- folly pald the reward. He then ex- plained that he had been hoarding up two years' salary in antlcipation of his summer’s excorsion, and as we all seemed honest friends he did not mind ATTENTION. B', K.

Renewing our journey, about midnight we reached the summit of the Boston mountains, where we changed horses and ate sup- per. The stages golng and returning usually met in the valley about six miles beyond this point, and not more than ten days previous to this time both stages had been waylaid and robbed, put the robbers had been sub- 8 quently captored on the Iron Moun- tatn raflroad. We discussed the in- cldent and congratulated ourselves that the band haa been broken up, and that we were In no danger of be- ing cslled upon to part with our valu- ables, Starting with a fresh team we rattled down the long, rocky descent at a lively rate, crossed the valley, and our team settled down into a walk, as they began tho ascent on the other side, Suddenly from bYehind a tree sprang an object that selzed the reins of the horser, while from behind an- other appeared & man with a shotgan, Promptly at the word of command our hands went above our heads, Ad- vancing cloger and keeping us within range he called out: ‘‘Pitch down that mail and express, and he qulck about it,” Tae driver appeared paralyzad with fear, while 1 replied as coolly as I could under the circumstances, as the follow was very near and the bore of Fishing Tackel, Bage Balls and all kinds of Fancy Boods.

While he was examining the booty [ ed to get out of my vest pocket 1 roll of bills, all I had, and ain throwlng up my hand, suc- coeded In getting it down between my neck and collar, Tae fellow, disap pointed at not finding anything of value, declured that we had valuables concealed about ns, and ordered us on the ground. We all obeyed, and stood in a line with our bands still elevated, and the villaln covered us with his gun while his partner went through our pockets. From the pro- fossor he secured & microscope and a heaven's sake to glve him a few min- utes in a private room, as he had some- thing of great importance to communi oate, There was such an Impressive earnestness in his manner that we ylelded a reluctant consent. We went to my room and, after carefully closing the door, he sat down and drew off a boot, out of which he took a false sole, and then produced a long, thin pack. age wrapped in oil skin, “‘Here, gentlemen,” sald he, ‘‘are five §1,000 bills, and T have_the same number in the other boot. Had these scoundrels carrled_out thelr intentton of stripplng us, I would have been rulned. Allow moe to hand you §2,000 for the $1,100 you lost through me, Under the circumstances, as they ap: peared, I cannot blame you for thirty. mile walk you foroed me to take.” Ho then explained that he was a broker from Leadville, retarning to New Orleans on a vieit, and had as. sumed that false garb in order to di. vert attention should he encounter robbers. Of course we complimented him on his presence of mind and sa- gaclty, and congratulated each other that we had escaped so fortunately. mes———— Satisfactory Evidenoe. J.
