A Tiger Story. Heie Is a genuine tiger story from the Bangkok Siam Free Tress, Just sent the Guard by Minister Barrett: "A curious story comes from Nougkhal that throws some light on the folklore of the na tives. For the last two months a tiger has terrorized the neighborhood of No'igkal. This dreadful mau eater is said to have destroyed no less than 40 persous. No one in the district dares to go out after dark and even in the daytime the villagers go in groups for safety. All attempts have hitherto failed at either shooting or poisoning the animal. The natives allege that the animal is possessed by the spirit of a Burman. Two brothers are said to have practiced the black art and to have been able to change theimelves Into tigers or" other animals at will. One, however, like All in the 'Forty Thieves,' forgot the magic word that made bim a man again. It Is this un happy Burman, the people allege, who is now ravaging the country in the form of a tlgr." vtuj uusrd, Jsnusry Thk Hop Market.

THE MAK1U.E HEAKT. Junction Tltuse Critique Fails to A predate Histrionic Geului. Junction Times, Jan 22: "Co C., O. I X. u. Dramatic Co of Eugene, held the board In this city last Saturday night. i lie till orthe play was Ihe "Mid night Charge," but It was rendered wllli the midnight chargo omitted, This omission cans d a good deal ot comment and the only excuse suggest ed was that the company desired (o teturn home on the overland, which passes lisre at 10:.'3. It Is claimed by the audience, although small, that In asmuch aa professional rlees of ad mission were chnrged the company was not Justified Iu culling the play to suit their own personal convenience The play was not up to expectation and if Ihe stage movements w ere strict ly military as advertised, Co C U In sad ueed of adrlll master. A number of characters were w ell cast. Tho male quarlett sang sweetly and w ith much volume. The ooou w as above the aver age amateur but Iu the S'-lemn and im pressive death scene, he should have lieen thrown ott tho stage." A xrusal ot the above Indicate a great lack of literary aud playwright knowledge by tho verdant theatrical reporter of the Times. The story of the play, as even Its synopsis indicate. commence the morning after the "midnight charge," and whyj that title wa given the play can only bo explained by the author, V Ellsworth Stedmau, to whom the above men tioned theatrical repoiter of the Times Is respectfully rulurred. In saying that the play did not come up to his expectations, tho afore said reporter again attempts to throw bouquutsat his own deep Intuition and transcendent knowhdgo of theatrical lore. In sooth, by tho shade of the muses, did he expect a Jellbrson, a Barrett or an Irving, a Bernhardt, a Mary Anderson, or a Marlowe, to come, before bim? 11 would appear even thus. He say agalu "profession al prices" wero charged Z't and .15 cents. What notd Hamlets er Othellos have graced their !ge for this grand stipend? Ye gods, cum down, and aitest to this man's great- lies Crown him with a laurel wreath; hi deck his person with tlie iridescent garb of the sage, and lot hi greatness be' heralded In tho utter- limit part of the republic. In Justice to the managing editor of the Times, It is ihihuiMu he was Ill- disposed fur the evening and entrusted this write up to the snake editor or the devil, In which case It attempt at billingsgate ca I be excused.
