The Man-Eater's Meal. PROFESSOR TAPP'S LAST TUSSLE "WITH THE MAD STALLION. Pro. R. H. Tapp, the celebrated Amer ican horse-tamer, commenced a "week ago to tame the Petaluma Man-eater, as described in last Sunday's Chronicle, and has every day since given public exhibi tions of his process and progress in a temporary amphitheaterHn the rear of the Kecord btables, on Market street, oppo site Seventh. Yesterday, however, the Man-eater changed the programme, and attempted to tame Tapp in so effective a way that Tapp emerged sorely wound ed, and only by a miracle with his life xne iuan-eaxer, wnose otner name is Cogniac, is a dark dapple gray Norman stallion, seven years old, weighing in nghting trim loou pounds, foaled in Normandy, France, imported two years ago . to Illinois, and subsequently bought by Joseph "Wooden, the Norman horse-breeder of Petaluma, and brought to tms aute, and declared bv horsemen to be the finest horse of the breed ever brought to America. Until brought to Illinois ho had been an exceptionally genue animal, out, having indiscreetly, and probably plavfullv. bitten out couple of pounds of an Illinois groom, he was so injudiciously and BRUTALLY BEATEN That, as Deacon Duncan would say, he experienced a chancre of heart, all his latent deviltry was developed, and he has ever since been the terror of all whom necessity have thrown into his company. "With the exception of occa sionally eating a hostler he is an invalu able brute, and Mr. Wooden consigned him to Mr. Tapp to have him cured of this sole little foible. Yesterday at 2 o'clock the exhibition commenced in the presence of about two linudred specta tors, and progressed till half-past 3, during which time the horso had been handled by the Professor, and even driven to buggy, and appeared perfectly tractable and to have kind of lost his appetite for stablemen. After being unhitched he was crosshobbled by mak ing a stout rope fast from the fetlock of his nigh fore leg to that of his off hind leg, an arrangement which permitted him to trot, but prevented his galloping as also his kneeling down, and which is why Tapp still lives to again try con clusions with him. The horse stood near the center of the inclosed circle, and the Professor about midway be tween him and the inclosing high bar ricade, the horse perfectly subdued un der the eye of commander. Some per son on a seat in the rear of Tapp asked him a question, and for one instant Tapp removed his eye and half turned his head to answer. In that instant the crafty brute SPRANG rPON HIM LIKE A TIGER. There wa3 a yell of horror from the speotators as the horse caught the man up by the clothes at the small of his back, shook him as a terrier does a rat and flung him through the air against the inclosing planking. Eefore Tapp could regan his feet the ferocious mon ster was again upon him, seizing him with his teeth by the left shoulder and en deavoring to kneel down upon him, which is his last and most approved way of KILLING HIS KEEPERS. This the cross-hobble prevented him from doing, and the cool Professor, with his shoulder still in the cruel grip of the monster's jaws, struggled to his feet and with his right hand so held the bit as to prevent as far as possible the successful working of the horse s jaws. The crowd was intensely excited. Mr. Wooden seized a long pole and poked it between the halter and the horse's lower jaw and still further retarded the biting. The friends of Tapp called for a gun, but there was no gun, and what is remarkable in a collection of 200 Cal ifornians, no one had a revolver, or the murderous brute would have been shot dead instantly. The hor6e and Tapp continued fighting half way round the riog, "Wooden on the seats outside still hampering the former's efforts with the pole. The spectators on the front seats also did all they could to distract the Men-eater's attention, one lady seizing the crutch of a man sitting next her and beating the horse over the head with it. By the aid of these distractions Tapp was enabled by degrees to draw his arm through the horse's jaws, the horse CHEWING IT IMPARTIALLY As it slipped away from him, until fin ally it was entirely withdrawn. The crowd shouted to Tapp to jump for his life, but the plucky trainer called for his whip, and with his mangled left arm dangling by his side, so tickled the fet locks of Cogniac that that enterprising animal was again in what Tapp fondly calls subjection. Last evening the trainer was in the stable office with a friend pouring an odorous liniment over his bandaged arm, and the Man eater, with all his evil passions inflam ed with the taste of blood, was romping around his prison and eagerly reaching up for a mouthful of any timid specta tor that ventured near enough to look down at him. The people will continue to look forward with interest to the solution of the problem of whether Tapp will tame the Man-eater or the Man eater tame Tapp. S. F. Chronicle. A Tremendous Girl. This child, a girl, was 4 years of age on the 26th day of last March. She weighs 100 pounds, measures eighteen inches across the chest and is four feet eight and one-half inches high. There is a thick growth of hair covering her entire body, while her face is covered with whiskers, in cluding a moustache. Up to about eighteen months ago she was a healthy girl. About that time her body became very hot and was covered with u. heavy perspiration which lasted for several days. The odor occasioned by the per spiration was very offensive, and within fifteen minutes after being cleanly dressed her body and clothes would be come saturated as if by some black-colored liquid. "When the perspiration eased the hair began growing, only leaving the soles of her feet and the palms of her hands bare. Her voice at tained a remarkable depth, sounding as though it come from the inside of a bar rel. Her strength is astonishing. She can carry her 10-year-old sister under her arm with apparent ease, and her mother states that the child actually deas not know her own strenglh. The statements herein made are strictly true, and, if necessary, the testimony of the child's parents and many people living in the neighborhood can be pro duced for corroboration. Franklin (JTtf.) Pabiot. Thb principal resemblance between a man who stops his team on the cross walk ef a crowded street and half a bar rel of flour is that they both mate a hundred wait. A Mystery at the Towers of Silence. A sensation has been caused in the Parsee community by the disclosure of rumors, which have been circulating in Bombay for the past three weeks, with regard to certain mysterious circum stances that took place at the Towers of Silence on June 23. Early on the morn ing of the zdd a Parsee died, and three hours afterward his body was exposed to the ivultures in Tower Ao. 1, locally known as KapisKhao's DoTchma (a tow er) . In the afternoon another body was taken to the towers, and it was decided to expose it in Kapis Khao s tower also The funeral procession proceeded thither and had taken the formal fare well of the dead, which is customary, while the corpse bearers (nassassalars) were opening the iron doors of the tower. The nassassalars pushed the door open, looked in, saw something unusu al, and then closed the door again. De scending the steps they told the mourn ers that tho body could not be exposed there, but must be carried to another tower. They were questioned about their singular proceedings, but chose only to give evasive and rudo answers. The procession was formed again and moved on with the body to tower No. 2, where it was duly exposed. One of the mourners suspected that all was not right, and he went to the Sigree or prayer-house and watched the corpse bearers. He saw them re-enter Tower No. 1, where they remained for half an hour. The suspicion dawned upon the watchers that the corpse-bearers had observed some one alive (probably the Parsee who had been exposed that morning) in tower No. 1, and had re turned hitherto murder him, in accord ance with a well-known Zoroastrain superstition that no one should be al lowed to return into the world from a Tower of Silence, otherwise he will bo the cause of dreadful plagues. He com municated his suspicions to a number of people, and soon a knowledge of the affair spread throughout the Parsee com munity. Although it was exciting the Parsees to the very cores, whole sec tions believing that the nassassalars had committed the dreadful crime of which they were suspected, singularly enough the native press studiously observed silence upon the subject, and it was not until the gist of anonymous letters which had reached a Bombay paper were put into shape that the conduct of the nas sassalars was openly discussed. It has been pointed out on behalf of the Panchayet (five individuals who are the recognized heads of tho Parsee com munity) that the whole story has arisen from the insolence of the corpse-bearers in refusing to give a prompt explanation of the reason why they had opened No. Tower and then shut it up again. Had they said at first that the body had fallen against the door, and that they did not like to push open the door further lest the mourners should ue shocked by see ingthe mutilated corpse, the excitement that has since arisen would, the IJan chavet believe, never have taken place This explanation pleases some of the Parsee community, and merely excites the ridicule of others, who will have it that the story told by the corpse-bearers was onlv an afterthought invented to save them from the consequences of their guilt. The Panchayet have point ed out that chains are hung round the inside of the towers to enable persons who may come to life again to escape; but all the same, young and enlighten ed Parseeism, as distinguished from orthodox Zoroas trianism, believe that the corpse-bearers still have instruc tions to let no one escape alive from the Towers of Silence. London f t lobe. A Sleep -"Walking Mother Stop ped ON THE WAY TO HerCHILD'S GRAVE A sinerular. but a tender and a beau tiful incident occurred on the North side of Chicago recently. Living at No, 202 Erie street, is a lady whose name is Mrs. Robert. Some months ago she laid awav to rest, under the grasses of Graceland Cemetry. her little boy. to whom she had been fondly attached around whose memory still twines her holiest affections. Frequently since the death and burial of her boy she has gone to his grave to scatter over it fresh flowers. .Now and then sho weaves a cluster in some curious shape and leaves it there at twilight for the dews to moist en while she is away. It is one of tho misfortunes of this lady that she is a somnambulist, and on several occasions she had been detained as she was leav ing her home late in tho night. One night lately she eluded the attention of any one about the premises, and had gone as far as No. 967 North Clerk street, in her night dress, before she was noticed. At this number resides Mrs. Mosher, who chanced to be at the window when she saw the figure glide by almost swiftly, the long hair falling upon the shoulders and form of the strange looking sight. In most women, and in some men, such a scene would have caused the blood to stand still and cool. But Mrs. Mosher, guessing what it was, summond her husband, who pursued the moving figure until lie held the form in his own hands and escorted her into the house, where she remained during the night, and on the following morning Mrs. Mosher had her sent to her house on Erie street in a carriage. When Mr3. Robert was found she had under her arm a bundle of child's clothes, and in the other hand a collec tion of flowers. She said she had gone to sleep at home and dreamed that her little boy had come back to her and took her by the hand and asked her to go with him to his grave. She arose and took his clothes and the flowers, as stated, and was found, in her 6leep, hastening to the spot in the silent city of the dead where her own treasure was buried. It has been discovered that the peacock is the natural enemy of the Colorado beetle. We are glad that this biped has at last found a mission, and that ho is now useful as well as ornamental.

Those who admire "John Halifax' and its companion novels, will be inter ested in knowing that their authoress has nnite a romantic history of her own. She was born at Stoke-upon- Trent. Staffordshire, in the year 1820 and was engaged to be married in her vonth to a gentleman vhose business made it necessary for him to leave Eng land. On his return from the voyage they were to be united. All promised well, and the news came that the ship was returning in safty, and Miss Mul lock and her mother went to the wharf to welcome, as in "My Mother and I," the successfnl merchant. The vessel came into sight, and on the deck stood the young man, who appeared overjoyed to see waiting him the beloved of his heart. They exchanged greetings, and, nun gling with the crowd, he hurried to be tho first to land ; but as he was on the plank his foot slipped, and he fell into the water and was drowned before her oyes. I or "a long time Miss Mullock could not occupy herself with anythiug, but at last her friends induced her to write for consolation in her great sorrow, and she sent out "John Halifax, which es tablished her reputation and absorbed her thoughts. Time passed on, but she never swerv ed in her allegiance to her drowned lover but after years had elapsed there was a terrible railroad accident in her neighborhood, and she was active in ministering to tho wounded, and ono w i. t i t young man was orougui to ner house, and lor months she nursed him and he recovered, but lost one of his limbs, and also his heart to his kind friend. All his entreaties made no impression, as JVltss Mullock said she never would marry; but he replied that if he waited ten years she should bo his wife: so. with a characteristic firmness of a wom an, after a year she became Mrs. George Lillie Craik, and a happv wife she is, al though twenty years older than her hus band. The blessing of children is de nied them, but Providence gave them ample satisfaction for tho regret. One morning Mrs. Craik was walk ing out, and found a little baby tying in the roadside, forsaken by its mother. A basket of linen was beside it which indicated that it was not of poor parent age. She stopped to look at it, and then began to long to have it for her own. She ran home to her husband and told him, and made him, though re luctantly,-accompany her back, and there it still lay smiling and crowing and his heart was touched by the help less little child, and he was as eager as his wife to take it. As foundling babies are not generally the most coveted of possessions, there was no opposition to their wishes, and they carried tho wee daughter home and christened her The odora. Mrs. Craik is devoted to her, and no party is so delightful to.her that sho does not see her treasure safe in bed, after saying her prayers before she goes, and she seems to think that in tho crowd that surrounded the little strain ger, tho mother was looking to see who would take her little ono. Mrs. Craik still preserves a quaint old-fashioned dress, with its body gathered at the shoulders, and coming to a point at the waist. In 1864. Queen Victoria bestowed on the gifted author ess a literary pension of sixty pounds per annum. One of the latest and most remarka ble teachings of astronomical science is that the moon, when full, is so intense ly hot that no creature known to us could long endure contact with her heated surface. The reasoning in this case is that the surface of tho moon is exposed during the long lunar day, lasting a fortnight of our terrestial time, to the rays of the sun which are as pow erful as tho3u that give us our daily heat; and without an atmosphere to tem per the sun's heat as ours does not, in deed, by impeding the passage of the suns rays, but by bearing aloft the cloud veil which the sun raises from our oceans the moon's surface must becoino in tensely hot long before the middle of of the lunar day. Undoubtedly the want of atmosphere causes the moon's heat to bo rapidly radiated away into space. It is the earth's atmosphere which causes a steady heat to prevail on its surface; and at the summits of lofty mountains where the atmosphere is rare, although the midday is intense, yet so rapidly does the heat pass away that snows crown forever the mountain heights. Yet. although the moon's heat must pass away even more rapidly, this does not prevent the heating of the moon's actual surface. Accordingly, Herschel has pointed out, as a fact be yond a doubt, that the moon s surface must be heated at lunar midday or, rather, at the time of lunar mid-heat, corresjjonding to about two o clock in our afternoon to a degree probably surpassing the heat of boiling water.

The bile has a three-fold part assigned to it by the great manager, Nature. It assists in the digestive process, acts aa a coloring agent of the blood, and is essential to the evacuative function. When the liver grows torpid, com plete chaos ensues in the stomach and bowels ; the bile is injected into the circulation in large quantities and constipation and indigestion are produced. Pains under the right shoulder blade and through the right side, headaches, vertigo, yellowness of the skin, furred tongue and nau sea, also follow. But these and other symptoms of biliousness, and the disorders which accom pany it, are entirely removed by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, that benign rectiher of organic disturbance and remedy for physical weakness. Intermittent and remittent lever, urinary and uterine troubles, rheumatism, gout and other maladies, also yield to the remedial influence of the great corrective and invigorant.

There is not a plant, nor an animal, nor an iota of the mineral kiugdom, but what con tains its proportion of iron, and the human blood is indebted to iron for one of its largest component parts. Iron has been employed for aqes as a medi cine, but never have its virtue been so fully appreciated, nor has it ever been bo universally demanded as at tho present time. Our fathers of old were but little acquainted with therapeutics. If they were ailing, ' too much blood" was the verdict, and thev had re course to bleeding as a gent ral panacea ; while me cnurcn was constantly preaching abstinence and fasting. 1'empora. mutantur, et nos mutamur in ill'm. Our medical practitioners have well jiish for gotten tho free use of the lancet, and our churches, realizing tho constantly growing f)hysical impoverishment of our race, have apsed in the enforcement of their command ments. Indeed, the results of our civilization with its crowded cities aud sedentary habits compels us to adopt an entirely different treatment. Instead of weakenin!? our RVEtrm by the barbarous practice of bleeding, it is our imperative duty in all cases to purify and e?i ricli the blood. The most powerful agent for this purpose in iron, lhe medical profession have no doubt of this. Iron determines tho principal action of life and gives to tho blood that necessary quan tity of red globules which constitutes tho heal thy vitality of tho individual. Its use quickly restores tho appetite and rc-ndcra. tn ,v, plexion a healthy appearance, It is common to see persons, hitherto perfect images of death acquire the health and ruddy glow of the most robust.
