" A Tlit.r’* Bite.
I have more than once heard of a
man defending himself from the on¬
slaught of a lion or tiger by thrusting
his rifle barrels down its throat in the
last resort, Poor Major Sandbach of
the artillery came to his death in So¬
maliland a few years ago in attempting
to thus hold oft’ a lioness, which never¬
theless managed to inflict on his hand
and arm bites which proved fatal, A | ;
curious story of the same kind comes
from the Khandwa district ot northern
India.
Mr. Barley, also an artillery officer,
was charged by a wounded tiger which
he following up. He missed it '
was
with his first barrel, and the second
failed to go off. The tbrer sprang. and
Sir. Bayley jumped to one side, thrust¬
ing out his rifle to keep the brute off.
The tiger, it is stated, seized the bar¬
rels and drove bis teeth through them
and, being unable to withdraw them,
was shot by Captain Ilarrisou, Mr.
Bayley’s companion.
In his death struggle the tiger drag¬
ged the rifle from the owner’s hands,
and the jar caused by the stock strik¬
ing the ground broke off two teeth
which were imbedded in 1 lie steel. This
story is said to be absolutely true; tint,
with the profoundest respect for the
strength of the tiger’s jaws and teeth,
I venture to think it wants explana¬
tion.—London Sketch.
-Women of a Dulcli Village.
The village women of Holland take
special care to keep the lips of their
white lace hoods stiff with starch,
which Is as necessary a perfection in
their toilet as polished linen and spot
less collars with ours, Tliis delicate
liood is worn over a black skullcap
lhat fits the closely clipped bead very
much like the headgear of a nun. The
elderly women, widows, often wear a
straw bonnet over it. A jneke of dark
blue, with a breastpiece of cream c-Ioih
and dark blue border of the same clotll
at the hips, constitutes the dress of
the women and the girls.
'The skirts protrude at tlie hips in a
grotesque fashion on account of the
many flannels which they wind about
the body. il /.i(/ u fih mem
with many peasants of the Black
forest, where the custom prevails to
wear as many skirts ns the spare box
will allow, adding at least one skirt
every year. They all dress alike, and
the talk about dress therefore does not
slip luto their conversations, and on
lhat score they are at eternal peace
with one another, for no change of
dress has occurred among them for
centuries and will not for years to
come.—Dona hoe's.
An Odd HlHitf Waster.
The late Signor Foli. the well known
vocalist, once made a very curious
wager with some of his companion
singers at Her Majesty's Opera House.
Some 20 years ago Mephistopheles in
Gounod's “Faust” was among Ids fa¬
vorite impersonations. In the garden
scene Ills strides when attempting to
avoid the elderly Martha formed an
Important feature of the humorous
business.
One night, the length of Ids legs be¬
ing a subject of chuff as he was stand
ing at the wings, be declared bis
ability to cross the stage in three
lamnds. The comments that ensued re¬
sulted in a bet.
When the proper moment for the ex
paces. and then, to the surprise of the
audieuce as well as to the representa¬
tive of Martha, leaped from side to
aide. The scene never evoked more
laughter, and Foli was acknowledged
to have won the wager.
Equally Divided.
"During the civil war,” snys the
Boston Transcript, “the Law school at
Cambridge was presided over by Pro¬
fessors Parsons, Parker and Wash¬
burn. They were divided in their po¬
litical views, and each did iiis best
to maintain his opinion.
“Professor Parker was one day ask¬
ed, ‘Hpw do you get along on politics
at the Law school?'
“ ‘Nicely,* he answered. .'We are
equally divided.’
“‘But how can that be?' continued
tbe Inquirer. There are three of you?'
“ ’Easy enough.’ replied the profess¬
or. ‘Parsons writes on one side and I
on the other, and Washburn—lie speaks
on one side and votes on the other.’ tt

A Mysterious Password.
The Baroness Burdett-Coutts wan
once shopping in Paris and was passed
from one department to another by
the shopmen, always with the remark,
“Two ten.” She was escorted from
counter to counter, and everywhere the
cabalistic words “two ten” were re
posted.
Struck by the peculiarity of this re*
train, the baroness asked the proprietor
as site left u.e establishment: “Pray
what does 'two ten’ mean? ( noticed
each assistant said it to the other j
wherever 1 went in your shop.”
“Oh, it is nothing.” ho replied, “mere- j :
ly a password that they are in the hab¬
it Of exchanging.”
But the baroness was not satisfied i
with this explanation. So in the even- j
ing, when the porter, a young boy, j
brought home her purchases, she said: |
“My !><>y, would you like to earn 5 1
francs?” j
Of course be bad no objection.
“Tell me.” said the lady, "what does !
'two ten’ mean, and I will give you 5 j
francs.”
“Why. don’t you know, ma’am?” said
he, evidently astounded at her igno¬
rance. "It means, ‘Keep your two
eyes on her ten Angers.’ ”
The mystery was solved. The shop¬
men of the Trots Quartiers had taken

Where Everything drown.
The tuberose flourishes amazingly tu
the open air in the Transvaal with but
the smallest attention and cultivation
The bulbs shoot up their three or four
foot stems, each hearing very sweet
smelling flowers, in an incredibly short
space of time.
In Pretoria roses are prolific—in fact,
most of tile streets are bounded by rose
hedges throughout iheir length, and
they bloom with a frail, pink monthly
rose blossom for tliree quarters of the
year. In public places, such as the
Burghers' park, the profusion of roses,
lilies, carnations and tuberoses is be
wilderiugly beautiful.
The w ii<i of Swaziland are
famous. They are of at least 20 differ¬
ent kinds. They are extremely curious,
and with a little rare and extra -heat
they can lie induced to develop into
very wonderful plants.
Everything grows in the Transvaal if
the trouble is taken to pin tit it. The soil
being all virgin and naturally rich, the
very smallest amount of attention is
required.
Thrift.
“Speaking of thrift.” said the protni
uent clergyman. “1 remember one man
who was as good an example ot
shrewdness as I have ever seen. It
was wlien 1 began preaching that 1
met Idin. I was young and struggling,
my salary was small, and the man was
a member of my church. He used to do
work 011 11 scroll saw, and one of Ids
specialties was a sort of plant stand
with two shelves and with scroll work
ornamentation. Two or three times be
tried to sell me one, but as 1 had no
need or use for it I told him so.
“’The time for the annual donation
party drew near, when everything that
was given counted toward that limited
salary. 1 was not altogether pleased,
therefore, when the man with a plant
stand appeared at tin* door.
" ‘Here, parson.’ lie said, ‘is a plant
stand. It's worth 810 . and I ’<1 like to
give •>:> ot it toward your donation.'

him the other $ 5 .”—New York Sun.

was picked up off the esplanade with
a handkerchief tightly tied around its

to lie perfectly dead,”
Still the manager gave him another
trial the following evening, when be
acquitted himself as follows: “The
esplanade was picked up off the man.
with the hansom cab tightly tied
around his mouth.” etc.
He was sent lo the back row again,
