In ono colliery not half n dozen miles
from tho gold mines I havo bc.oii a beam
of coal 70 feet in thickness. , This coal,
though of a low quality, suffices for tho
purposes of tho go.ld mines, and thero
is a sufficient quantity of it to outlast
far tho lives of all tho gold-miners. Bo
sides these coal deposits noar tho gold
fields und thoso others by the Vaal riv

"Ono most obtrusive" unpleasantness
in tho conversation of tho bioyclo fiend, "
observed n nonbioyolibt, "is his hnbit of
personally appropriating" cvory part and
particlo of his machine. It is apparently
not enough that ho bhould pussoss tho
bioyclo iu its entirety, but also iu do
tail. 'Aly wheel,' when uttered two or
three times to overy bentonce, is bad
enough, but when it comes to 'my sad
dlo,' 'my tirps,' 'my valves,' 'my han
dle bar' and so forth, tho effect is both
Irritating and irrational. 1 onco heard

npon the thing as I am now, I had tho
greatest difficulty iu determining what

TIGCR AND BULL.
I A
Fierce Battle, In Which tbeTlcer Waj
Badly Beaten.
Tho Paris letter or tho London Post
gives .details of an extraordinary enter
tainment given at tho Plaza do Madrid
in tbo presence of 1,1)00 spectators. This
was n combat between a rnyal Bengal
tiger and an Andalusian lighting bt,ll
Tbo tiger, Cef-ur, was a lull grown
bruto 'belonging to Spessardi, tho train
or, who bad ni'ver been ablo to do any
thing with It and hnd, indeed, oucu
nearly fallen u victim to its ieroeity
IIo sold it tor 0,000 fraucs to the director
of thopla7a.
A cage 1? yards squaro by 4 in height
had betn erected in tlio middlo of tho
arena, and tho animals were brought ou
in vans, tho bull being tho Jirt to bo
released Into the iuclosuro. Tho bruto
immediately began to run round nud
round bis prison, bellowing find throw
ing up sand and gravel with his hoofs.
The instant tho tiger entered tho cage
hu gave a roar und bounded ou tho bull,
avoiding tho horns, and fixed ou bit
flauku and belly with fojth teeth and
claws. Tlio bull remained still for a
few seconds, and then seemed t,o be sink
ing backward to tho ground. ' tho spec
tators thought that all was over, but
tho tiger let go for a second to tako an
other bold, and iu tho brief interval
was kicked over by tlio Wild pluuges ol
tho bull. BefOro tlio tiger hud timo tc
recover tho bull was on him, nud, unk
ing his horns into tho striped hide, il
tossed tho tiger into tho air. This was
repeated four or live times, tho bull
varying his tactics occasionally by bang
ing bis udvertury ugaiuFt tho bars.
When tbo hull stopped, tho tiger lay
limp on the ground, and tho crowd,
thinking ho was dead, cried, "Dravo,
torol"
Tho bull stood stamping for a mo
ment in tho middlo of tho cage, and
then, seeing tho tiger did not move, ap
proached and studied him. Cut Ccsai
was only shamming death and seized
tho bull's muzzlo in his powerful jawi
so tho animal could not move. Eventu
ally, however, he was released, and aft
er stamping f uriouhly on the tiger again j
caught him on his horns. This timo the '
tossinu, btammUK and bancinc nnnnr.

' Tbo cage wus then opened and tho bull
rushed out and buck to his stable. Foi
pn caution's eako tho tigtr'H van wnf
brought up, nnd, to tho genera) sur
prise, Cesar roso to his feet, glauced
round as if afraid tlio bull was still
there, and then bounded into tho van.
Tho tiger was found to havo five ribi
broken, besides having n number ol
wounds from tho ball's horns. ItianaiC
that all wild animals bears, lions,
panthers and tigers faro badly in com
bat with the Spnuihh 'fighting bull.

How It Happened.
"Look hero, youug mau," snid the
druggist.
The clerk did not have to bo told tbaj
ho had mado a mistake. IIo know it
long before. Indeed bo had figured il
out for himself aud waa ablo to toll jubl
how it happeued.
"You have charged only 75 ceuts foi
this proscription," asserted! tho drug'
gist, "nud tbo regular prico is 1."
"I admit it," said tho clerk. "The
fact is I waa rattled. You 6eo, I made
a hasty calculation as to the cost of the
ingredients, and the result was 8 contf
iustoad of 4 as it should have been.
That is how it happened." Chicpgt
