It was in Brussels, and he started for that city from his coun try seat near Rotterdam. At 4 o’clock, the time for feeding, he entered the menagerie. He min gled with the crowd and waited un til the animals would receive their food, for which they were waiting with wild impatience. While they were eating he began to cough. Suddenly the animals paused in their treat _and listened, then broke into wild bowls of joy and tore at the iron bars, so that many of the timid visitors fled from the menagerie. Then Martin stepped forward. With a movement of his hand and with his powerful voice he com manded silence, and suddenly, all was quiet. Ho swung himself over the bars which separated the vis itors from the animals, and put his hand into the cages to fondle the animals. A mighty tigress show ed more joy than any of the others. When Hartin’shand glided over her magnificent far, her limbs trembled nervously, sbe uttered weak, tender grunts, and through the iron bars with her rough tongue, sbe licsed the face of her former master.' When he went away she lay down without eating any more food. ? ©Q e»g, CHUTA STOISE IMPORTERS jAND DEALERS IN. QfcORCIA'S PRIDE THE OLD RELIABLE! MEAL AND FLOUR 0. P. & l £.

The New Orleans Picayune has discovered that" t1ip only State that has been absolutely uniform in its congressional representation is Rhode Island. It had two mem bers under the first census and the same number ever since. It is bound to remain in the same cate gory another ten years. Its popu lation in 1880 was 279,531, and it is now 328,000. This is a variation which.precludes change, whatever basis of representation may be adopted. Delaware has always had just one, except under the third census it had two. There are the only constant quantities in the en tire category. There are nearly h 50,000 colored people in New York City. Some of them have built up fortunes in real estate speculation. Ono of them accumulate! an estate worth . $100,000 iu the catering business. A -, number are worth $200,000 each.
