Seventeen head of cattle, standing

In China all the land belongs to the
State, and a trifling sum per acre, never
altered through long centuries, is paid
as rent; this is the only tax in the coun
try, and it amounts to about 60 cents
per head.
People who sit at home in this

1 occasional appearance of a mad dog can
hardly realize that in India last year
upward of 20,G0O persons died from
snake bites alone.
Four tame ducks have cost the
county of Cascade, Mont, about $800

A person barn in hot weather stands

born in the cold months of winter; of

Most people know that letters to
Canada need bear but 2 cents postago
for each ounce or fraction thereof, but
it is less generally kuown that the same
rate applies to letters to Mexico
which is too often regarded as a

TnE elephant is almost as amphibious
an auimal as the hippopotamus. They
can stay under the water live minutes
at a time without any inconvenience
and they bwiin like ducks. Frequently
they are carried into a river or creek in
the summer time to bathe, and like the
water so well that it's a hard matter to
get them out of it.
"History cannot be written in a
hurry like a sermon," says a writer in
The Churchman. This statement
would have roused the righteous indig
nation of the late Canon Liddon, who
believed that the preparation of a ser
mon, liko mutrimony, should not be
entered upon hurriedly, but with a sol
emn sense that it is the most important
thing in life.
Qoeen Natalie is engaged in writing
her memoirs, which are nearly com
pleted. As she is only 30 years of age,
her personal experiences do not leach
very far back, and it will most likely
be found that her memoirs are lesa such
than a work directed against King
Milan. She has got the better in the
contest with her husband in so far as
she is at Belgrade, and intends to re
main there.
Thirteen years ago a Boston man
lost a trunk on a railroad entering Chi
cago. The officials asked for a week to
hunt it up, and then they wanted a
month and a year. The loser didn't
wan't to seem captious about it, and he
kept still and let the good work go on,
and the other day he received a pair of
socks, a collar, and the lid of his long
lost trunk, together with a note stating
that there were no charges for storage.
If, as has been estimated, the popu
lation of the United States is twelve
times as great as that of the dominion,
it will be seen that the divorce ratio is
immensely greater here than there, due,
no doubt, to the difference in the sys
tems of the two countries, and to the
higher estimate placed by our Northern
neighbors on the inviolability of the tie
thau we do. It is, indeed, startling to
realize that, while the populations of
the two countries are 12 to 1, the di
vorces are as 2,700 to 1.
Among smaller birds perhaps none
wage war more desperately than the
English domesticated robin. A writer
in Longman's Magazine says that an
invalid friend of his was amused for six
consecutive days by the antics of robins,
which came regularly at 10 :30 a. ni.
and fought a duel on the lawn outside
his window. The combat invariably
lasted until one or two became too ex
hausted to recover his legs, whereupon
the victor would seize him and triumph
antly drag him round' the inqlosure.
It has evidently been a regretful task
for Stanley to make the revelations that
appear in his published interviews and
over his own signature concerning the
causes of Barttelot's murder by an
African savage, and other misdoings in
his rear guard during his absence, but
he has been forced to the wall and most
of thetruth is probably out Tho un
fortunate controversy is likely to end
in the courts, when the proofs will be
exacted, and it may be shown that in
addition to other difficulties the ex
plorer was antagonized by the jealousies
of his oilieers.
In Nanking there is a royal castle of
beggars. It was founded by Hung "Wu,
t!j first monarch of the Ming dynasty.
He did it, because having once been in
the nienduviut linp himself, he wished
to oblige an old beggar chum. "I don't
want anything from your majesty,3 said
the latter, except to have plenty to pat
and wear aud nothing to do." He couldn't
have put it better. The beggar had
his wish. The caste of which he was
the first chief, lives in certain large
"caves" in the wall of Nanking. The
police appoints the head of the beggars.
They are well off. They are a close
corporation. All other beggars are
"small potatoes" in comparison with
the royal beggars. The royal beggars
live oat of curiosity. Their apartments
are lofty and airy. They smoke opium

A singular runaway is reported from

with her husband for over thirty years
and had borne him four sons, some of
whom had attained manhood, has left ;
her home because, as she states in a
letter, her husband had noi furnished
her means to properly clothe herself
and had refused to give her the money
to have her teeth attended to. She
therefore secured a place at $14 a
month, and with her earnings for a
year she said that she proposed to have
her-teeth properly cared for, and with
the balance to buy clothes to last her
during life. Then, if her husband
would receive her, she intended to re-

A N"Kv organization has been formed
in the West which is having a rapid

repeal and abolition of all so-called
titles to land other than the natufaL
title of occupancy and use; all statafes

debts; laws that interfere with free
trade between individuals of the same
country or of different countries; all
charters, franchises and special priv
ileges to corporations aud companies;
all forms of compulsory taxation; all
law.-, that discriminate against women
voting. The organization also demands
national, State, and municipal mainten

At Boroughbridge, in Yorkshire, ,
England, is a group of remarkable pre
historic monoliths called the Devil's
Arrow's. The Devil's Bit Mountains
are m the County of Tipperary, near
Tcmplcmore. A remarkable ancient
earthwork near Newmarket, in England,
is called the Devil's Ditch. An ancient (
wall across the Stewartry of Kirkcud
bright is the Devil's Dyke. Another
Devil's Dyke is a hill in the South .
Downs of Sussex, with remains of a
prehistoric aud probably Celtic hill
fort The Devil's Glen is a deep valley
of the Connty Wictlow; Devil's Lake is
a saline Lake (and modern city) of
North Dakota. Another Devil's Lake
is near Baraboo, Wis. The Devil's ,
Inkstand is a deep and wonderfully tine
crater-lake of South Australia. The
devil lends his name to form a part of
the title of a celebrated cavern of
Derbyshire, England. The Devil's '
Punchbowl is an interesting mountain ,
tarn of the County of Kerry. In the
Black Hill country of South Dakota is
the Devil's Tower, an enormous natural '
obelisk of trachyte, G23 feet high. One
of the Fuegian islands is called the
Devils Island (ol degrees 58 south, (59
degrees 5 west). In the same group is
a Uevil s Harbor, on another island.
There is another Devil's Island off. the
coast of Maine; another belongs to
French Guiana. The Devil's Peak is a
high mountain of Hayti, there is an
other in South Africa, and a third
(Mount Diablo) is in California. The
Devil's Bridge is in the Canton of Uri,
Switzerland. The Devil's Bridge in
Cardiganshire is also t ell known. The
Devil's Nose is a llooky Mountain peak.
The Devil's Tower is the northest angle

of Britain, Ireland, and the colonies.
Trapping an K.'cplianr.
Silent and almost motionless, quite
hidden in the darkness, stood the huge
form of an old bull elephant, one of
whose tusks had been damaged in his
youth and had become totally decayed.
His head was bent forward in order to
rest his one monster tusk upon the
ground, his trunk loosely coiled be-'
tween his fore-legs, was also resting on
the ground, and his great ragged ears
flapped spasrnodically in vain endeavor
to shake oil' the myriads of mosquitoes
that persistently hovered around his
head. Suddenly the forest was lit up
by a most vivid Hash of lightning, fol
lowed an instant afterward by a crash
ing peal of -thunder. The elephant
raised his head with a started jerk, his
huge limbs shaking with fear.
Almost before the rumbling echoes
of tho thunder had died away, the rain,
that had been threatening for so many
hours, fell in torrents. Flashes of
lightning succeeded each other so rap
idlv that the attendant peals of thun
der were converted into one continuous
I am the violence of the wind soon
increased to a veritable tornado a
tropical hurricane.
Trees weie blown down and uprooted
on all sides. The terrified elephant re
mained for some time motionless with
fear, bpt as the tempest continued, the
monster became suddenly panic-stricken,
and charged madly through the
dense forest, stumbling and falling
over the trunk ef uprooted trees in his
endeavors to gain sqme open patch
where there would he no danger of be
ing crnshed by the failing timber.
Suddenly, in the midst of a mad
rush, the elephant sank to the ground
with a sharp squeal of pain. The
poor brute had spvered the vines
that supported one 'of the' traps
that had been arranged the pre
vious day, and a heavily weighted
spear was plunged between his
shoulders. For some moments he
remained motionless, then the great
body rolled slowly from side to side px
vain endeavor to free himself from top
spear, but the weapon was barbed and
the points had penetrated too deeply to
be shaken off. Here he remainet, ex?
hausted, until daybreak, his hide co?

THE SECRET MOURNER.

They bore him on to bis grave in the heart of
tho busy town;
And with furtive footsteps following, I watched
them lay him down ;
The mourners, many and sad though they
wept there one and all.
The tears that fell were naught to mine, that
could not fall.
We loved each other dearly, in a day that is
distant now;
But something got to his ear, and he suddenly
A' something gat to his ear I neer could gather j
wuat
And he kept away from thence, and his love for
me was not.
I hid my grief in mv heart, aud bore it as best
I might ;
There was uever darkness yet but hed some re
liownfi light;
And I found a balm iu the thought, that al
though his love was gone,
I coulil follow him secretly, and in uecret still
live on.
And this I've done through the year that have
come aud gone siuce then "
(So far the.love of women surpasses the love of

As from his grave iu the town I tuaied in my

A FEARFUL ADVENTURE.
BV EMKKSON I1KNNKTT.
I was a medical student in Paris at
the time the strange aud startling ad
venture happened which I am about to
record. Tired with my long lectures
and hard study, I was out one evening
for a walk iu the fresh air. It was a
pleasant night in mid-winter, and the
cold, bracing air, as it touched my fe
verish brow, caused a grateful sensa
tion. Passing through a rather lonely
street near the river, I was surprised at
metting a young and pretty girl (at
least she so appeared in the dim light
of a rather distant street lamp), who
carried in her hand three or four bou
quets, which she offered for sale.
"Will monsieur have a bouquet ?"
she asked, iu a sweet, musical tone,
holding out to me a well-arranged col
lection of beautiful flowers.
"They are very pretty," Eaid I, tak
ing them iu my hand; aud then, some
how, I could not help adding, as I fixed
my eyes upon hers, and so, I think, is.
their fair owner."
"Monsieur will purchase and assist
mo?" she said.
"Do you, then, really need assistance,
mademoiselle V
"Why else should I be here at this
hour of the night, monsieur?"
"And why here at all?" quickly re
turned I. "This street is little fre
quented, and is about the last in the
world I should have selecled for dispos
ing of a luxury most suited to wealth
and fashion."
She sighed, and reached out her
hand for the bouquet, which I still re
tained. "What is yonr price?"
"Five francos."
"A large sum."
"Monsieur will remember it is win
ter, and flowers are not plenty."
"To aid you I will purchase," re
turned I, handing her the requisite sil
ver coin, "for though I love flowers, I
would otherwise hardly indulge in the
luxury to-night at such an expense."
She thanked me, and seemed about
to pa-s on, but hesitated, looked up at
me. and said:
"Could monsieur direct me to the
house of a good physician, who would
turn out to-night to see a patient for a
small recompense?"
"Any friend of yours ill?"
"My mother!" with a deep sigh and
downcast look.
"Where does she reside?"
"Onlv a short distance from here."
"What is the matter with her?"
"She has a high fever for one thing?"
"When was she taken?"
"She came down last night, and has
not left her bed since."
"Why did you not send for a doctor
at once?"
"We hoped she would get better
soon, and it is so expensive for poor
people to employ a physician."
"I am myself a medical student,
with considerable experience among
the sick of the hospitals, and if you are
disposed to trust the case to me I am
at your service without charge," I re
rejoined, already feeling deeply intei
ested in the fair girl.
"Oh, how shall I thank monsieur!"
she exclaimed, with clasped hands, and
an upward, grateful look. Pray follow
me, Monsieur le Docteur."
She turned at once, and moved off
at a rapid pace down the street, toward
the Kiver Seine, in the direction I was
walking when we met. In less than
five minutes we had reached a wretched
quarter, among narrow streets, old tot
tering buildings, aud squalid-looking
inhabitants, some of w horn seemed to
glare at us as we passed along.
"Only a step, monsieur. It is just
here."
Almost immediately she turned into
a covered passage, which led in buck
among habitations that I should never
have voluntarily visited in the broad
light of day. A distaut lamp just
served to make the gloom visible, till
she suddenly stopped and opened a
door into total darknes-.
"Your haud. Monsieur le Doc'eur,"
she said, at the same time taking it and
leading me forward.
I was tempted to draw back and r
fuie to go auy further, though I me
phanically followed her.
We now went through a long, narrow
passage, in total darkness and after
two or three short turns, began to de
scend a flight of creaking, rotten stairs.
"Is. it posiib'e you live iu a place
like tljis?" said I, secietly wishing nry
self safely out of it.
'Iu Paris begg.ira cannot be choos;
. ers," replied the giri,
"But even in Pari it is not nocoary
for the living to tae n their abode s in
sepulchres!" I lejoii.ed, with the .same
asperity, being e.ed at lny.-elf for suf
fering my goc d nature to lead me into
a den from which I might i.eer come
out alive.
To this my fair guide deigned no re
ply. On reaching ti.e f ft of the .stair ,
she pushed oi en a d or int i a i-tiu'.II,
dimly lighted r om, and J fil!ov.ed her
into it with toiue eaiet; migi-.i:jg:.
There was a bed i.i one con.er, and on
it appeared to be a human form, lying
very still.
"I have brought a doctor, mother,"
said the girl ps she c!o?el the d or be
hind me. As thc-e wa no rep'y to
this, she turned to me s-ayi g: "i 1
Monsieur le D. cteur plea e be :-e.ifea a
minute? I tliiok !:y.!iiother is ai'ee ."
"I beg mademoi e!le will bear in
mind that I can spate only a few mo
ments to this ca e to-nigh?, a'l hae
another call I wih to make immedi
ately," I returned, fee'ing very anxious
to depart from that snbtenaneau quar
ter as soon as possible.
"Monsieur shall not be detained long
by mp," rejoined the girl, passing or.t
of the room by ano'.her door.
I did not sit down, but walked over
to the bed where the patient was lying
very still so sliil, indeed, that I copljl
not detect any breathing. A woman's
cap was on the head, and the pud of a
1 sheet concealed the" face. X ventured
to turn this down carefully. and beheld
the eyeless sockets and grinning teeth
! of a human skull.
I started back in horror, and at the
same moment the door by which the
girl had left was thrown open, and in
' marched, one after the otber, fomr tail
human figure?, in black gowns and
masks. I knew at once, then, that I
was to be robbed, and probably mur
dered. I wore a heavy diamond pin
and ring, carried a very valuable gold
watch, and had in money about my
person some five hundred francs, but
not a single weapon of any kind. Re
sistance being therefore out of the ques
tion, I felt that my only chance if, in
deed, there were a chance was to con
ciliate the ruffians, and buy myself off.
With a presence of mind for which I
still take to myself considerable credit,
I said at once:
"I understand it all, gentlemen, aud
yon will find me a very iibeial person
to deal with. There is one thing I
valne very highly, because it is the only
one I have, aud 1 cannot replace it
that is my life. Everything else of
mine is at your service, even beyond
what I have with me."
They were undoubtedly surprised to
hear me speak in that cool, oft'-haud
manner; but they marched forward and
surrounlled me before either returned a
word.
"How much hae you with yon,
then ?" inquired oue in a civil way, but
in a low gruff tone.
I immediately mentioned the different
articles of alne, and the exact amount
of money. "All of which I shall be
pleased to present you with, if one of
you will be kind enough to escort me to
the street above, " I added.
"You said you had more, monsieur."
"Yes, gentlemen. I have ten thou
sand francs in the Bauk of Prance, aud
will willingly add a check for half that
amount."
"Checks don't servo our purpose very
well," said a second voice.
"Then 1 pledge you my honor that I
will, to-morrow, draw out five thousand
francs, and pay the amonut over to any
person who may approach me with this
bouquet in his hand," said I, holding
out the flowers I had purchased of the
fair decoy.
"And have him arrested the next
minute, I suppose! '
"No, on my honor he shall depart un
harmed aud unquestioned, and no other
human being shall be informed of the
transaction for a week, a month, or a
year."
"Let us first handle what you have
here," said the first speaker.
1 immediately took out my pin, took
off my ring, drew cut my watch, pro
duced my pocket-book and pur.-e, aud
placed them all in his extended haud.
"You make us a present of these,
now?" he said.
"Yes, on condition that one of you
will forthwith conduct " mo to the street
above," I replied.
"Monsieur is a very liberal gentle
man ! Eh, ' comrades ?" said the mask,
turning to the others.
"A very liberal gentleman, indeed!"
was the response.
They then drew off together, scrutin
ized the articles by the light of a
smoky lamp, and conversed together iu
low tones. I felt that they were hold
ing a consultation that involved my
life, and, to speak the honest truth, it
F.eemed as if every nerve in me quiv
ered, and it was with difficulty I couid
stand.
At length the principal spokesman
turned to me and said, in a very cool
and methodical manner:
"Monsieur has acted more like a gen
tleman than any other person we ever
had dealiugs with, and if we could, con
sistent with our business, oblige him,
we should be happy to do so; but un
fortunately we are governed by a rule,
which is a law with us, that dead men
tell no tale3, and we think it will not
do to make an exception in this case.
We will, however, in consideration of
monsieur's gentlemanly behavior, be as
mild and lenient as possible in doing
our duty, and grant monsieur five min
utes for saying his prayers.
"You have then resolved to murder
me?" gasped I.
"Monsieur uses a very harsh term,
but we will let that pass. You have
five minutes yet to live by this watch."
The villain then held my watch to
the light, and I felt indeed that my min
utes were numbered, and secretly be
gan to pray for the salvation of my
soul, believing that I could not save
my body.
A death-like silence now reigned in
that gloomy apartmeut for some time,
and then one of the ruffians bent down
and lifted a traii-door, and from the
dark pit below issued a noisome smell,
as it might be of putrid bodies. I be
held my intended gtave, and shuddered
aud shook like an aspen.
But why stand there and die like a
dog, without a single attempt at escape?
At the worst it could be but death, and
there was a bare possibility that I might
get away. I fixed my eye on the door,
which opened upon the stairway and
with a single sudden bound reached it,
but found it fast locked. Then, as the
hands of the ruffians seized me with
murderous intent, I uttered a wild
shriek, the door was burst in with a
loud crah, and in a moment the room
was filled with gendarmes, I saw that
I was saved, and fainted and fell.
The four masks, the fair decoy, and
soma two or three others concerned in
that murderous den, were all secured
that night, aud 1 subsequently had the
pleasure of giving in my evidence
against them, and seeing them all con
demned to the galleys for life.
The place had for some time been
suspected, aud the decoy marked. On
that night a detective had secretly fol
lowed the girl and myself, and after
ascertaining whither she had conducted
me, had hastened to bring a body of
gend'armes to the place. The delay of
the ruffians in their murderous design
had been just sufficient to save me. I
scarcely need add that I never again
volunteered to accompany a distressed
damsel on a secret adventure while I
remained in Paris.
A ClorK as Cuniirr.
As Halifax, Nova Scotia, Is a British
militaiy aud naval station a signal gun
is fired from the citadel each day at
noon and at !):5J0 p. m. Twenty years
ago the se:geaut in charge of the gun
daily reguia'ed his watch at a jeweler's
store. Several years ago this plan was
discontinued, and a flag signal system
waj adopted. This in turn was suc
ceeded by a time ball signal system.
A short time ago, on account of the
fre jue'it interference with the sigua's
by f'r, a new arrangement for the firing
of the gun was perfected. A cab!e has
bee i laid from tho jeweler's establish
ment to the citadel, aud this is con
nected with a clock which automatic
ally fires the gun. The dial of the
astronomical clock bears two small re
ceptne'e ? containing mercury. One of
the e is so placed that the reverse end
ef the ootid hand will touch the mer
cury when the index end points to the
sixtieth .-eco!.d. Each e,nd of the rain
Utp hautl t .nches the mercury in the
other rpceptae'e, one end at the hoar
and the other at the half hour.
When the minute hand touches the
mercury in one receptacle aud the sec
pnd band touches it in the other the
circuit is completed and thp cannon is
di-charged by au electric curreut pass
ing through the clock. The military
authorities at the citadel are atte by
means of a switchboard to cut tba gun
out of tho circuit; connectingit oply a
few minutes before the firing is fp be
done."

If we allow our bodily infirmities to make
away with us through neglect, have we such au
immense moral advantage oer the deliberate
suicide? Scarcely. For example, the deadly
progress of Bright' disease, diabetes, acute
nephitU and gravel ia sure-often torribly swift
in the catastrophe. Most people of average in
formation know that this Is the simplo, unvar
nished truth iu regard to those widely prevalent
; maladies. To delay judicious medication is
t siiecially suicidal iu such cases. The means of

It in a notable fact that the largest yl
most obscure drawer in the stationary
room connected with the Senate Cham
ber is the one in which sample cork
screws are kept. Of these sinuous aids
to creature comfort or discomfort there
is infinite variety. Many are novel, but
the new and old have alike but oue ob
ject to draw corks. Some of them are
old-fashioned, and to secure good results
the bottle wil have to be placed between
the knees of the operator; the cork in
variably comes out with a sharp "pop."
Others pull the stopper from the oritico
with a squeaking sound that has in it
some of the elements which go to make
up a long-drawn and noisy kiss, while
still later specimens of man's ingenuity
removes the neck obstruction so quietly
that even the wide-awake occupant of
an adjoining committee room will never
be aware, so far as the corkscrew can
help it, that there is a corkscrew within
half a mile. There will probably be a
