A IIQRSE-TA3IER TAMED.
4l iionnan IanEatcr" in California
(JJnkcsn Meal of aDcciplo of Rarcy.
Prof..B. H. Tapp, the celebrated
American horse-tamer, commenced a
week ago to tame the Petaluma man
eater, as described in last Saturday's
Chronicle, and has every day since
given public exhibitions of his pro
cess and progress in a temporary am
phitheatre in the rear of the record
stables, on market street, opposite
Seventh. Yesterday, however, the
man-eater changed the programme,
and attempted to tame Tapp in so ef
fective a way that Tapp emerged, sore-"
Jy wounded and only by a miracle
with his life. The man-eater, whose
other name is Cogniac, is a dark dap
ple graj' Norman stallion, seven years
old, weighing in fighting trim eigh
teen hundred founds, fouled in Nor
mandy, France, imported two years
ago to Illinois, and subsequently
brought by Joseph Wooden, the Nor
man horse-breeder of Petaluma, and
bought to this state, and declared by
horsemen to be the finest horse of the
breed ever brought to America. Un
til brought to Illinois he had been an
EXCEPTIONALLY GENTLE
"animal, but, having indiscreetly, and
probably playfully, bitten out a coup-
"loof pounds of an Illinois groom, he
was so injudiciously and brutally
beaten that, as Deacon Duncan would
say, he experienced a change of heart,
all his latent deviltry was developed,
and he has ever since been the terror
of all whom necessity has thrown in
to his company. With the exception
of occasionally eating a hostler, he is
an Invaluable brute, and Mr. Wooden
consigned him to Mr. Tapp to have
him oured of this sole little foible.
Yesterday at 2 o'clook the exhibition
commenced in the presence of about
two hundred spectators, and progress
ed till half-past 3. during which time
the horse had been handled by the
professor, and even driven to buggy,
and appeared perfectly tractable and
to have kind of
LOST HIS APPETITE
for stablemen. After being unhitch
ed he was cross-hobbled by making a
stout rope fast from the fetlock of his
nigh fore leg to that of his off hind
leg, an arrangementwhich permitted
him to trot, but prevented his gallop-
ping, &s also his kneeling down, and
whioh is why Tapp still Hve3 to try
conclusions with him. The horse
stood near the centre of the inclosed
circle, and the professor about midway
between him and the iuclosiug high
barricade, the horse perfectly subdued
under the eye of the commander.
Some persons on a seat in the rear of
Tapp asked him a question, and for
one instant Tapp removed his eye
and half turned his head to answer.
In lhat instant the crafty brute eprang
upon him like a tiger. There was a
yell of horror from the spectators as
the horse caught the man up by the
clothes at the small of the back, shook
him as a terrier does a rat, and flung
mm tnrougn me air against tne in
closing planking. Before Tapp could
regain his feet the ferocious monster
was again upon him, seizing him with
Ills teeth by the left shoulder and en
deavoring to kneel down upon him,
whioh is his last and most approved
met,hod of
KILLING HIS KEEPER.
This the cross-hobble prevented him
from doing, and the cool professor,
with hlsehoulderstiil in thecruel grip
of the monnter's jaw, struggled to his
feet, and with his right hand so held
the bits as to prevent as far as possible
the successful working of tiie horse's
jaws. The crowd was iu tensely excit
ed. Mr. Wooden seized a long pole
and poked it between thejialter and
the horse's lower jaw and still further
retarded the biting. The" friends of
Tapp called for a gun, but there was
no gun, and what Is remarkable in a
collection of two hundred Californians,
no one had a revolver, or the murder
ous brute would have been shot dead
instantly. The horse and Tapp con
tinued fighting half way around the
ring, Wooden on the seats outside still
hampering the fovmer's efforts with
the nole. The spectators,
ON TITE FRONT SEATS
also did all they could to distract the
man-eater's attention, one lady seiz
ing the crutch of a man sitting next
her, and beating the horse over the
head with it. By the aid of these dis
tractions Tapp was enabled by degrees
to draw his arm through the horse's
jaws, the horse chewing it Impartially
as It slipped away from him until fin
ally it was entirely withdrawn. The
crowd shouted to Tapp tojump for his
life, but the pluoky trainer called for
his whip, and with his mangled left
arm dangling by his side, so tiokled
. the fetlocks of Cogniao that that en
terprising animal was again in what
Tapp fondly calls subjection. Last
evening the trainer was in the stable
office with a friend pouring an odor
ous liniment over his baudaged arm,
and the man-eater, with all his evil
passions inflamed with the taste of
blood, was romping around his prison
and eagerly reaohing up for a mouth
ful of any timid spectator that vec tur
ed nearjenough to look down at him.
The people will continue to look for
ward with interest to the solution of
the problem of whether Tapp will
tame the man-eater, or the. man-eater
tame Tapp. San Francisco Chronicle.
Heavy Contract to Let.
A gentleman who came down, from
Lexington on Saturday was asked
how times were in that section. He
said: "About all I have heard lately
is a joke on an editor, who, going
away, left his. paper in charge of a
minister. During the minister's stay
in the sanctum the following letter
came from a mountain subscriber:
"You know very well I paid my
subscription to your paper the last
time I was in Lexington. If I get
any more such letters from you as re
ceived last week I will come down to
Lexington and maul h 1 out of you !
" The minister answered:
"I havee been trying to maul that
thing out of the editor for ten years
past, and if you will really come down
and maul it out of him, then, my
dear sir, I have twenty members of
my church I will also get you to op
erate on."
THE TRA.PPIST MOKKS.
A Visit to their Monastery in Iowa,
and the 3I.inncr of their Life.
From the St. Loots Times.
Twelve miles from the city of Du
buque stands a lonely monastery, the
inmates of which belong to the aue
tere order of St Bernard. They are
called Trappists, after the great Mon
astery of La Trappe. in France. It is
the severest order in tiie world. Per
petual silence is strictly enjoined.
Each brother has some particular em
ployment. Farmers for miles around
have their work done at the monas
tery. It is optional for them to give
recompense. A brother told me they
have two monks whose trade and in
dustry have gained for the bouse not
less than $40,000.
Thirty years ago sixteen monks left
the city of Waterford, Ireland. They
sailed for America, but on their way
cholera set in. Six of them died on
their way from New Orleans to St.
Louis. Their bones are now quietly
reposing on the banks of tlie Missis
sippi. The remaining ten chose a
wild and desolatejprairie for their fu
ture home, near Dubuque. Their first
winter was intensely severe. The
snow was so deep that wagons passed
over fences without difficulty. They
purchased 4,000 acres at twenty-five
cpnts per acre. Thesame land is now
worth $70 an acre, and the monastery,
When complete will cost $150,000.
In regard to their rules, one of the
monks gave the following report:
The communiti',' sixty in uura-ber,
must all arise at 2 a. m. Seven hours
allotted to meditation, prayer, etc.
We pray kneeling or standing. No
brother is allowed to sit down while
praying or reading. Once a month
we go into the'eonsistory chapel and
publicly accuse ourselves of all vani
ties and imperfections. Fresh meat is
never allowed except to the sick. One
meal and a eolation is allowed in win
ter ; two meals in Bummer. Our food
is bread, milk and vegetables. All
the monks wear the cowl and habit
while in the house. The old monk of
70 concluded by saying:
"We live by our own industry ; we
have no legacies, incomes or inten
tions except our lands and our own
industry." Their stalls In the chap
el are madeso that they must either
stand or kneel. Reciting the office
they all lower their heads at the
names of the saints of their order, and
kiss the ground at the name of the
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Their
summer and winter garments ace of
the same material. The cowl, or
head covering, is attached to the hab
it; a leather belt binds the tunic to
the body. Priests, brothers, and ab
bot, aU work In the fields. There is
an awful solemnity about their dis
cipline. Seeing them march, two by
two, from the chapel, I felt a chill run
through my body. The long line of
silent specters recalled to mind so
many skeletons inarching to the
grave. Not a sound was made by
their feet as they passed under the
hyssopof the abbot. The abbot had a
jeweled ring which no one was al
lowed to kiss. Instead of gold or sil
ver he held in his hand an old wood
en crozier. He had a very precious
relic for a pectoral cross. I could
whittle a better cross with my pen
knife. The string by which it was
suspended did not cost more than five
cents fifty years ago. His habit was
patched but very clean. The lord
abbot slept in the dormitory with the
monks. Over his head was a little
font and a picture of L.nurdes. Though
he could not speak in the dormitory,
still ho was enthusiastic about the
luxury of an old blanket which- he
hung before his hed to keep out the
breeze of the winter. I have often
seen a sailor's hammock and railroad
man's bunk, but my lord abbot's pal
let was less comfortable. He had no
chair, table, or looking-glass. I al
most imagined the pope intended to
mock this old man in giving him a
wooden cross and crozier, paper mi
ter, and something like a shoestring
for a chain. But soou that thought
was checked when I was told this
man came from a noble family, and
freely bartered the pleasures and
wealth of this world for the lone aud
silent cloister. There were no casters
or wine bottles on his table. Instead
of silver plate and sparkling goblets,
there stood before him an earthen
jug, a rusty knife and wooden plate.
This man was once a fondled child of
fortune. He is to-day one of the
leading scholars of the Roman church
in America, yet when priests and
bishops and men of the world are en
joying the comforts of profound slum
ber, the poor old Abbot Is standing in
his wooden stall leading the choir as
Ehey are singing hymns and canticles
to their God and King.
"Girled Up."
We hereby suggest a new "colloqui
al expression" for the next edition of
Webster's dictionary. It was invent
ed by an anxious father on the occa
sion of an interview with the princi
pal of one of our Hampden county
academies, where the co-education of
boys and girls still prevails. The
boy in the case had formerly been
studious and promising, but for sever
al months had gradually fallen off
from his previous standard, growing
so careless and unsoholarly that it be
came a serious question whether he
would be able to pass his college en
trance examination. It was a coinci
dence that he had meanwhile become
conspicuous as a "ladies" man." The
principal having alluded to this as a
prominent oause of the boy's demor
alization, "Yes," broke in the father,
"I know It; he's got all girled up.."
Which is a remarkably happy and
pregnant phrase. If there is any
thing that plays the mischief with
boys and girls during that budding,
downy and vealy period of their
teens, when they ought to be laying
solid and permanent educational
foundations, it is this premature ef
florescence of the sexual proclivities,
which moves boj's and girls, who
ought to be kept down to study, to
perk and prim and sidle, and play
with each other's eyes, and write silly
and badly spelled notes to each other,
and eat slate pencils in private. But
then, it rarely lasts long; it is less
harmful than tobacco or whisky ; and
there Is no law "agin' youths of that
age making fools of themselves.

Troplietic Predictions.
Prophets are going about casting
the horoscope of the empires. At
Manehepterlast week. Rev. M. Bax
ter expounded and interpreted the
prophecies in the books of Daniel and
Z'ichariah. The 14th chapter of Zach-
ariali refers, he said, to tiio coming of
ChriHt, which will shortly appear
bodily on the Mount of Olivet, anil
commence his thousand years reign
upon earth. Antichrist would be a
man like Jerome Napoleon, who, on
promise of peace will rise up from no
body into a great king, the monaroh
referred to iu Daniel ii., 3G. The
abomination of thin rule will only
last three years and a half. In that
time he will conquer the world, and
make a seven years' covenant with
the Jews. When half that period is
at an end the great Antichrist Is to
surround Jerusalem, and then will
ensue the battle of Armageddon, and
it will take seven months to clear
away the mountain of dead bodies
that will be heaped up in the conflict.
Armageddon will be the Sedan of An
tichrist. It Is quite possible that
Priuce Jerome Napoleon will be An
tiohrist. The young prince of Chisel-
hurst Is to come to the Freuoh throne
under ultramontane influences, and
he will restore the Napoleon d3'iiasty.
Out of the present war and a coming
war between France and Germany
will arise the ten kingdoms which
formed Caesar Augustus' Roman em
pire. It is then that the great Anti
christ will appear the little horn
the sovereign of some State either in
Turkey or Syria. If Cardinal Lucien
Bonapart becomes the next Pope,
(which Rev. Mr. Baxter believes is
settled,) that event will hasten and
bring to pass the immediate develop
opment of these prophecies. They
will certainly be realized within the
next few years, as Christ is almost
due, when one hundred and forty-four
thousand Christians will be translat
ed, and there will be more conver
sions to the truth in one generation
than have been made in six thousand
3-oars.
THE BIGGEST FIND YET.
Discovery of.'n Monster Skeleton with
the Skeleton of a Man Inside It.
From tho Carthngc (Mo.) Patriot.
Mr. Henry Woodward ownsa stock
ranch in the Indian territory, in the
Peoria nation, on which is situated
the big sulphur spriug. The spring
is surrounded by a'quagmire, which is
very deep and 'slushy," and so soft
that it will not bear any considerable
weight. Mr. Woodward lately under
took to curb up the spring in order to
get water more easily, and while
working in the mire came upon what
appeared to bo an enormous bone. He
at once began an examination which
disclosed the startling fact that it was
the head of some mammoth beast,
iiis curiosity was aroused, and with
the assistance of three other men, he
began the work of excavation. For
four days they worked, but did not
succeed in bringing the monster to
the surface. They threw ofF the
marl, but could not lift the head of the
golitic giant. They found the skele
ton well preserved, and the immense
teeth still set in the massive head.
The jaws, were both iu place, and the
spinal column attached to the crani
um. The earth was thrown off from
the body to the length of twenty feet,
but still the giant skeleton remained
beneath. Three of the front ribs
were forced out; and proved by meas
urement to be eight feet in length.
The dirt was removed from the inside
of the osseous structure, and there lay
the skeleton of a human being with
102 flint arrow heads and fifteen flint
knives. The cranium indicated that
it was the skeleton of an Indian. It
would have been impossible for the
man to have been inside the animal
without having been swallowed by
him, and this theory is substantiated
by the fact that the bones on the right
side of the skeleton were broken and
mashed, apparently by force. The
monster, therefore, must have been
carnivorous, whioh Ib also proven by
teeth, which exhibit the marked
characteristics of a flesh-eating ani
mal. A large molar and two incisors,
taken from the upper jaw, were ex
hibited to us at our office yesterday,
the largest one weighing eight pounds
and measuring eight by four inches
in size. There are two large molars
and two blunt tusks on each side of
the jaw, tho teeth between the mo
lars and the tusks are incisors, having
from two to bIx points and corres
ponding prongs to each tooth. In
front of the tusks, the teeth are simU
lar to those of most carnivorous ani
mals in shape. All the bones indicate
that they have lain buried for an in
credibly long period, as they crumble
rapidly when brought in contact with
the atmosphere.
Every oircumstance goes to show
that these are the largest animal re
mains everesurrected,and the teeth,
tusks, and structure of the head and
jaws prove unmistakably tha,t it was
of the carnivorous olass.
The Wttfertawn Times says that a
traveling man chanced to drop Into
a Qouverneur store a day or to after
the recent fire. The conversation
naturally turned to that subjeot, and
he remarked to an old man sitting
near by :.
"I suppose everybody thinks the
fire was the work of an Incendiary ?"
"Well," said theold man,"somedo
think so, but I think it was sot."
Married Life.
Julius Moser gives the following
counsel from a wife and mother: "I
try to make myself and all around me
agreeable. It will not do to leave a
man to himself till he comes to you,
to take no pains to attract him, or to
appear before him with a long face.
It is not so difficult as you think,
dear child, to behave to a husband so
that he shall remain forever in some
measure a husband. I am an old
woman, but you can " still do what
you like; a word from jou at the
right time will not fail of its effect:
what need have you to play the suf
fering virtue? The tear of a loving
girl, said an old book, .is liko a duw
drop on a rose.; but that on the cheek
of a wife is a drop of poison to a hus
band. Try to appear cheerful and
contented, and your husband will be
so; and when you have, made him
happy, you will become so, not in ap
pearance but in reality. The skill re
quired is not in appearance but in re
ality. The skill required is not so
great. Nothing flatters a man so
much as the happiness of his wife ; he
Is alwai'B proud of himself as the
source of it. As soon as you are
cheerful you will be lively and alert,
and every moment will afford
you an opportunity to let fall an
agreeable word. Your education,
which gives you an immense advan
tage, will greatly assist you ; and your
sensibility will become the noblest
gift that natue has bestowed on you,
when it shows itself in affectionate as
siduity and stamps on every action a
soft, kind, and tender character, in
stead of wasting itself in secret repin
nigs.' This is most excellent advice,
and worth' of being treasured up.
