Tiger H anting in India. HOW A CAPTAIN IX THE BRITISH WAS KILLED. ARMY The Delhi Gazette of April 28tli says: "Capt. L. Bolden met withliis death at Mandulgnrb. It is about 40 or 50 miles from Shapoora, and about CO from Nee much. Shapoora is about 40 miles from Nnsseeratoad, where the headquarters of the Sixty-eights are. It was the middle of the day on Wednesday, the 18th, that a large male tiger showed himself to the beaters fearlessly. One he seized, in deed, by the shoulder, and he is not ex pected to live. He was close to another, who, however, being shouted to, bolted out of his way. The hunting party consisted of Captain Bolton and Mr. Bayers, from Neemuch, and Lieut. Goad, from Nusseerabad. The two former were on elephants after the ti ger, Mr. Bayers, in a howdah, the other driving his animal seated on a sort of extemporized cloth saddle only. The ti ger appears to have displayed great cunning and fearlessness, and escaping the ball aimed at it, suddenly by a flank manoeuvre, jumped on Capt. Bold en's elephant from behind. Both ele phants rushed away, and very soon Mr. Bayers found himself still in his how dah, a couple of miles from the scene. Had Capt. Bolden's elephant been as fearless as himself, the tragic story would have ended differently. As it was, when his terror-stricken elephant rushed madly from his assailant, the rider was thrown backward, and must have fallen into the very jaws of the in furiated lord of the forest, who forsook the elephant to execute his will with teeth and claws on his newly acquired prey. His object seems to have been merely to disable, for having fearfully larcerated the lower limbs, it is said he galoped after the elephant again. All this was the woik of an instant, ami ere the terrified outlook (of whom Mr. Bay ers was not one) could draw their breath the tiger was out of sight. The wounded man was carried somehow to his tent too far away, and letters were hurried off to Deolee and to Nusseera bad for help. The cavalry surgeon from the former station was the first to reach the scene. The news did not reach Nusseerabad till Friday morning, and Dr. Henry Waghorn, himself an emiaeut shikaree, started off at once on a camel to the obscure spot where the wounded man was lying. He reached there the next day with his apothecary, and amputation of the thigh was per formed at once. He sat up with him all night, but with Sunday's dawn it was evident the poor fellow would not see another. His intellect was unclouded, but the shock to his powerful frame, and possibly poison from the tiger's teeth or claws, were too much. lie sent a last greeting to his Colonel in reply to a letter that had just come in from Nus seerabad, moved his pain stricken frame a little as he turned his weary head . and died. Wider Rane of Animals in Prehis toric Times. The chief interest of the recent de bate on the antiquity of man turned upon the question as to whether thero was any evidence in this country of man in the caves or river deposits older than post-glacial times. Tho readers of the works of Messrs. Croll and James Geikie will remember that they ascribe all the traces of paleolithic men in this country either to pre or interglacial age, basing their conclusions principal ly upon the fact that in the river depos its and caves some of the associated ani mals, such as the hyena, lion and hip popotamus are now only to be found in hot climates : and seeing that no traces of a warm climate are presented by any post-glacial deposits in Britain, they in fer that those in question are of a mrch higher antiquity. They account for the association of southern and northern animals by the supposition that they occupied the country at different times, during glacial or inter-glacial eons of from five to ten thousand years in length. To this it was objected that the intimate association of forms prove that both sets of animals inhabited the country at the same time, and were the result of the overlapping of different -faunas during seasonal changes. The reiritteet-formed a large portion of the prey of the hyeoat and must, therefore, have been a contemporary, It was also pointed out by one of the speakers that there is no evidence from the animals that there ever was anything like "the perpetual summer," advocated by Mr. Geikie, at any time in the pleistocene age. Tho hippopotamus in Regent's Park takes his tub regularly in spite of the east winds so prevalent in the spring, which remind one of the glacial Eeriod; and the tiger crosses the frost ound rivers of the Anioor to prey upon the reindeer. The lion, now found only in the south, lived in the days of Hero dotus in the inclement mountains of Thrace. It seems, therefore, to us, that any argument based upon fossil ani mals as to a warm inter-glacial period is worthless. And further it is obvi ously unfair, in treating of the fauna associated with man to adopt the foren sic device' of choosing some witnesses to the exclusion of others. It would be a? easy to prove the climate in question to have been temporate from the associ ated remains of bison, stag and horse, oa it would to prove it to have been arctic from the associated musk sheep, lem mings and reindeer. It was probably a variety climate, with great extremes, similar to that in Central Siberia, in which the summer heat and winter cold are very severe. Nature. Bank of England Notes. Few of those who handle Bank of Enerland notes, ever think of the amount of la bor and ingenuity that is expended in their production. The notes are made from pure white linen cuttings only, never from rags that have been worn. They have been manufactured for near ly 200 years at the same spot Laver stroke in Hampshire and by the same family, the Portals, who are descend ants of French refugees. So carefully is the paper prepared that even the number of dips into the pulp made by workmen is registered on a dial by ma- j chinery, and the sheets are carefully ! counted and booked to each person through whose hands they pass. The printing is done by a most curious pro cess within the Bank of England. There is an elaborate arrangement for securing that no note shalfbe exactly alike any other in existence, consequent ly there never has been a duplicate of .a Bank of England note, except by forg ery. It is stated that the stock of paid " notes the bank never reissues a note for seven years is about 91,000,000 in number; that the original value of the present seven years' stock is over 3.000,000,000, and their weight over 113 tons. Fancies of the Insane. "Yep, sir, I'm the light of the world," said a hatchet-faced, emancipated man in the city hospital for tho insane on "Ward's Island, New York. And he look ed at the superintendent, Mr. A. E. Mc Donald, seemingly expecting some ac knowledgement of tho truth of his as sertion. Getting from the doctor a nod of re spectful assent, the patient continued: "You know, doctor, that I have been skinned alive here burned alive, scald ed alive. My head has been screwed off and screwed on again." "Why did they take your head off?" the doctor inquired. "Oh, you know, doctor. .You know well enough," the patient replied, re proachfully. " You know that my head is the moon and my skin the tars. Where would you get your light at night, I should like to know, if it wasn't for me! Doesn't my blood supply light for all the street lambs in that big city over there?" As he said this ho waved his hand toward the opposite shore, where the thousands of little gas jets glimmered through the darkness. "Once." he continued, "my head was as big as our friend, the doctor's, here. Now see how thin it is." And as lie stroked his poor, shrunken cheeks, his head drooped upon his breast, his jaws dropped, and he looked unutterably sad. "Yes, but," said the doctor, trying to rally his patient, "if your skin is all taken off and your bones are taken out, how is it that there is any thing left of you?" The patient did not raise his eyes from the floor. As the doctor was moving away the poor fellow mumbled in an swer that he supposed his body was re paired as fast as it was destroyed. "That's a curious case," said the doc tor. "It is a mixture of mania and mel ancholia." A stout built, excessively nervous man, with black hair and beard, was next visited. He fancies that he has an elec tric battery in him, and that his enemies hold the wires and use them to" draw away his thoughts. "They came again last night, doctor," the patient said. "They came and took my lungs out." Another fellow says that he has a doc tor in his body, who moves about to physic and torture him. "Can 3-0U feel him to-day?" Dr. Mac Donald inquired. "Oh, yes," was the reply, "I can feel his shoulder pressing here," and he put his hand to his left breast. "Then, where's his head?" asked the doctor. The patient felt all over his body and about his throat, and then shook his head, saying: "I don't know where his head is to-dav." A very remarkable patient is an eld erly man, an ex-college professor, who is hard at work on a translation of llor ace. with copious foot notes. He talks so learnedlv and logically, that you won der whether he has not been confined by mistake. But he presentlv tells you confidentially that Charles Dickens wrote "Bleak House" for the sole pur poso of injuring him, and if you should say anything about poison, he will im mediately tell you that his wholo sys tem has been ruined bv being inocnla ted with poison contained in the lead of the water pipes, lie admits that no is insane, but says that he is carefully studying: his case in connection with the lead Tjoisoniner theory, and has hope of getting the poison out of his system. The Troops of the Czar. TILE EMPEROR AND SUIT RIDING UP AND DOWN A LINE OF SEYETY-F1 VE TH jL'SAND MEN. Count Loltke writes: The Russian peasants are extremely good-natured and peaceable. One never sees the peo pie fighting or wrestling. They have no bull fights or cock fights. But their feeling for their superiors make them, much against their inclination, the most obedient and devoted of soldiers. Dur ing the flood in St. Petersburg, sentries were drowned because they were not discharged from their posts. As the Winter Palace was burning, a priest rescued the sacred vessels from the chapel. In the corridor he found a sen tinel, and told him the danger of remain ing longer at his post. "Prikass reor ders) said the man; received absolution, and was burnt. The emperor rode down the whole front of the camp, one (German) mile and a half. The soldiers seventy-four battalions of 800 men about 60,000 in all, unmixed, old, bearded, dark brown faces stood, without arms, with caps up lifted. I will say nothing of the deaf ening "huzzahs," which lasted for two hours, except one might see in these bearded faces with what joy they greet ed their czar. The emperor spoke to several of them, and they answered their "btuschka" (their father) without any embarrass ment. The troops were drawn up in six lines, and the emperor rode with his enor mous suit along the whole front. At the march past there were 75,000 men infantry, cavalry and artillery the guard corps and one division of the greniaJier corps. If these troops had been set out in lino they would have covered a (German) mile in length. I could not have believed it pos sible that, after their long marohes, the troops could have turned outr in such perfect order. We rode into the camp of the infant ry and foot artillery, a town of fifty thousand inhabitants, under canvas, with broad, regular streets, on a tree leas plain. It is well suited for its pur pose. Fourteen of these military monks sleep in one cell; they lie on wooden beds, with a little straw, and cover them selves with their long gray cloaks. The knapsack is their pillow, and their arms stand in the middle of the tent, which is surrounded by a little wall of earth. The food was very good; each man has three pounds of good, black bread a day, baked by the companies them selves, and half a pound of meat. Sau erkraut, soup and buck wheat groats are their favorite luxuries. Dinner is eaten in the open air in companies, planks be ing used for forms and tables, weather not being taken into consideration. When asked, the men answered loudly and all together, like a battalion salvo, that they were doing well. But they are very quiet no singing or joaking as among our men. Beauty. baze not on beautv too much, lest it blast thee; nor too long, lest it blind thee. If thou like it, it de ceives thee; if thou leave it, it disturbs thee; if thou hunt after it, it destroys thee. If virtue accompany it. it is the heart's paradise; if vice associate with it, it is the soul's purgatory. It is the wise man's bonfire and the fool's fur nace. Q'(arel. The First Shirt-Bntton. Young Charley Overblower married a month ago, and when he came home from his wedding tour, he and his pret ty little wife Emma took possession of a charming flat up town. x.any one evening, after they were fairly settled, and the last of Emma's sisters had been induced to conclude her visit, Charley proposed to Emma that they should go to the theater. The woman assented, and both began to amend their toilets. In a few moments Charley said: "Uar ling, I am sorry to trouble you; but re ally I think I shall be obliged to have to ask you to sew a button on this shirt." "Of course; why not? said Emma, de lighted at a chance to show her skill. She took the garment, seated herself, and said: "I can t remember for the life of me where I put those buttons. Charley, look in that box and see if you can nnu one. Charley looked in the box, which was a case of perfume bottles, and not find ing the desired article, concluded he would not bother Emma for iuther in formation, so he pulled a button from another shirt. "Now. Charley," said Emma, "look in the top bureau-drawer and get me a paper of needles and a spool ot white cotton be sure and get the white cot ton." Charley found in tho top bureau -drawer a copy of Tennyson he remember ed it well, and picked it up and looked at the marginal marks and comments, dear affectionate little girl that she was! and more perfume bottles, and a pat tern of a Flor de Fumer overskirt, and the beginning of a sofa-cushion and va rious other things, but no needle and cotton. Then he remembered that he had a fancy "housewife" that he had bought from a girl at a fair, and he got needles and cotton out of that. "Thank you, dear," said Emma, and she began to stitch vigorously, hum ming a dreamy Italian air. Presently she said. "Oh, Charley, won't you bring me the scissors? I think they're in my writing-desk. I had them there to-dayjeutting a poern out of a paper." The scissors were not in the writing desk, nor on the mantel, nor in the top bureau-drawer, nor in the case of perfume-bottles, nor even in the receiver; so Charley drew on his "housewife" again. Emma took the scissors, snipped the thread, and exclamed, "There dar ling! And now make haste, or we shall be late." Charley wriggled into the garment, and then put up his hands to button the the band at the back, but no button was there. "Why, Em," he cried, "where in thunder did you sew on that button?" "Oh, Charley, ain't you ashamed!" exclaimed his wife. "Where are your eyes?" "If they were in the back of my head," answered Charley, "perhaps I could see that button." Emma raised herself on her tiptoes and looked at the band. "Whv, that's strange!" said she. "Take it off and let me look at it." The shirt was inspected thoroughly, and the button was found neatly and deftly sewed on just beneath the tag of the shirt bosom, so as to button to the appendage in a most elegant manner. "Well, by Jove," exclaimed Charley, "if I didn't know any more about sewing on a button than that, I wouldn't get mar I'd learn how. "Y'ou were going to say you wouldn't have got married, cried his wife, put ting on her hat hastily and bursting into tears. "Where are you going?" demanded Charlev savagely. "I'm coing home, and, I'll get separ ated from you and your old shirts; that's where I m going, blubbered Lmma "I thought you wanted the button there to fasten to your what-yon-call- ems. It took Charley an hour to persuade Emma that if she went home there wouldn't be strawberries enough to go around, and she could get all she want ed at Delmonico's. and he'd pay for them. Ar. V. Paper. A Bloodthirsty Bird. The red headed woodpecker is pronounced to be a carnivorous bird by a correspondent of the Naturalist, who relates the fol lowing incident as having occurred in Humboldt County, Iowa, last summer: "During that summer a friend raised a large number of black Cayuga ducks. It was noticed that while the birds were still verv young many of them disap peared, one after the other, and the bod les of several were found with the brains picked out. On watching carefully to ascertain the cause, a red-headed wood pecker was caught in the act. He killed the tender duck with a single blow on the head, and then picked out and ate the brains. Though my friend was an en thusiast in protecting the birds and snuirrels that came about his premises, this provocation was too much. The woodpeckers were speedily shot." Seeing Without Eyes. Mr. Levy, in his work on Jflindness and the Mind, says: W hen passing along tne street can distinguish snops irom private m t 1 - A houses, and even point out the doors windows, etc., and this whether the doors be open or shut. While walking with a friend in Forest Lane, Stafford I said, pointing to a fence which separ ated the road from the field: "Those rails are not uuite as hierh as my shoul der." He looked at them, and said they were higher. They, however, measured three inches lower than my snouiaer When T marlo this observation' J. was about four feet from the rails. Certain ly in this instance facial perception was more acurate than sight. When the lower part of the fence is brick-work and the upper part rails, that part can be detected, and the line where the two meet easily perceived. Irregularities in height, projections and indentations in walls can also be discovered. -on don Globe. A rolliekinsr Hibernian of the Light Division in the Peninsula, was once trudging leisurely along with a pig in a strinor behind him. when, as bad luck would have it. he was overtaken by Gen Crauford. The salutation was not the most cordial. "Where did you stea' that pig. you plundering rascal ?" "What pig, liin ral ? exclaimed the cuiprit, turning round to him with an air of the most innocent surprise. "Why that pig you have behind you, you villain! "Well. then.

KKI.IKF AXR (IRE FOIl lit I'Tt ltll THE MAGNETIC ELASTIC TRUSS. Many discussions arise now-a-davs as to the progressiveness or non-progressiveness of the age, and many proofs are pronounced vro and con to the entire satisfaction of the literati, but in this practical age when we relv only on prima facie evidence of positive comparisons and existing facts, it is necessary to convince not only the willful skeptic but the ignorant all are amenable to the mishaps of nature and accident. ana are consequently more or less interested in the progress f that science which purports to alleviate or remedy these fanlta. These thoughts of the incalculable amount of suffering ignorant humanity must have under gone, ana irom it is saved, were suggested by our recent visit to the Magnetic Elastic Truss Co., of No. 009 Sacramento street. Its orijrin is due to the human and philanthropical instincts of its founders, whose sensibilities were touched by v itnessing the great amount of sunering un nect f warily inflicted on the subject by unprinci pled parties with instruments and "appliances tor proper and successful treatment. Dr. Pierce' patent Magnetic Elastic Truss is a valuable remedy for the cure of rupture. In calling attention to this company we aro actu ated by a desire to lay before our readers an en terprise which our citizens patronize verv exten sively, and in which they justly take pride, and which has !een beneficial to thousands of afflict ed ones. It is the only truss made that rives general satisfaction. It is an invention of but two years' old by Dr. Pierce. The olatos are made of a combination of metals and can't rust ; uie uana is elastic ana win yield to pressure, thus adopting itself to the bodv in anv position. The truss is so well arranged that it will adapt itself to right or left sides, and the pads being concave cannot slip. Our representative was shown a large collection of old trusses left by parties who have purchased the Magnetic Elas tic Truss aa made by Dr. Pierce. Some were received that an enormous price was paid for, one of $300, while a good Magnetic Elastic Truss can Ik) had for the purpose for S10. We were shown ample testimony from reliable narties that there have been many bad cases of mnhire cured by the Magnetic Elastic Truss. It can be worn at all times and under all circumstances by the patient, whether awake or tsleep, sitting, standing, walking or riding, and while making contortions or other active exercise of the body, without the least inconvenience or danger of en larging tho rupture. ltie testimonials are numerous, but we have not space for the same. Any one, however, who will take the trouble to send for their Illustrated Book will find therein certificates of cures per formed by this truss which are simply wonder- fill It is not necessary for those residinc at a dis tance to come to the city ; they can be fitted at nome, as me company, on application, will send directions for measuring. Consultations and examinations are free, and experienced attend ants only are always on hand. Those in need should at once give it their attention, and be ware of bogus Elastic Trusses that now flood the country ; use no more metallic trusses of iron hOOPS and Steel Rnrmrrsi : nrwl for th psnn ine article send to 609 Sacramento street, San irancisco. By fair and honorable treatment towards their customers, and by the exerciso of promptness in all their business relations the Magnetic Elastic Truss Co. have built un an ex tensive trade all over tho United States. The goods they offer deserve the merit. S. F. Com mercial. 91 ANGI AN D SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES. "SO rGS 'Ml I l.i xxxc Tie Ctr of Lo, AnKel 'ALE IW SBCTIOVa rm Vjirrm...
